Chapter 823 80 Brother Soldier, a drop of water does not need to be repaid with your body 16
The meal lasted until dark. Miaomiao's stomach was so full that there was no room for more.
Guan Chongshan drank so much that he fell flat on the table, snoring so loudly that it was deafening. In fact, Guan Chongshan didn't like wine that much on ordinary days. After all, "wine is the essence of grain" and it is not cheap. Even as the village chief, it is not common for him to drink so freely.
But now, with Lu Jingxing's arrival, can't I just drink as much as I want? And then I got so drunk that I couldn't open my eyes.
Seeing this, Lu Jingxing hurried forward, carefully helped him up, and half-carried and half-supported him back to the kang in the inner room. Looking embarrassed, he handed the task of taking care of Guan Chongshan directly to Guan's mother.
After settling Guan Chongshan down, Guan's mother did not forget that Xiao Lu still needed to rest at home.
She had eaten her fill beforehand and had almost tidied the room.
"Miao Miao, go clean up your brother's room a little bit and let your brother Lu sleep there tonight.
Remember to turn on the lights and don’t worry about the electricity bill.”
Miaomiao responded with a smile, and then took Lu Jingxing, whom her parents treated as their own son, to her brother's room.
It was just across the wall from the house where she lived.
Lu Jingxing followed behind Miaomiao, with obsession flashing in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
Miaomiao pushed open the door of her brother's room and turned on the light. The dim light instantly illuminated the entire room.
The room was not big and was simply furnished. A wooden bed, a wardrobe with peeling paint, and a desk were all the furnishings in the room.
The bedding has been replaced with new ones. They were made by her mother and had never been used before. They are very precious.
Miaomiao picked up the broom in the corner and prepared to sweep the floor a little. She really didn't need to do anything else.
Instead, Lu Jingxing walked straight forward and took the broom. His tall figure seemed to cover the little girl, revealing a hint of ambiguity under the light.
"Let me do it, it's already good."
Miaomiao thought about it and didn't argue. She took the linen cloth and wiped the table. She had to make people feel at home.
This time, Lu Jingxing did not force himself to work. One swept the floor and the other wiped the table. It was quite harmonious. While they were working, Lu Jingxing also started chatting with Miaomiao as if they were just chatting casually.
"Miao Miao, Auntie told me before that you wanted to work as a temporary worker in a guesthouse. Do you only want to work in a guesthouse, or are you also willing to accept other jobs?
Is it acceptable to be so far away from home?"
Miaomiao was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Lu Jingxing to care so much about the lower class people. After thinking about it, she answered seriously.
Nothing to be embarrassed about.
"I don't have any special requirements. I just heard that the food in the guesthouse is pretty good and I can eat my fill. The salary is also good compared to the village.
As for being far from home, I have to live in a dormitory for work anyway.
We have sent students from Peking University several times in the past few years, and the management is very strict in both junior high and high school. To be honest, I have been living in the school dormitory since the third year of junior high school and only go home once a month.
Here in the guesthouse, I earn money, have food to eat, and can even get a permanent job in the future. It's already pretty good."
Since Miaomiao came to this dimension, she has never thought of taking advantage of the social trend to gain benefits. She has no big ambitions, and the original owner did not want her to dominate the world or become a strong woman.
So Miaomiao’s positioning in this world is that she would be satisfied if she could have a stable job, eat well, dress warmly, and earn money to supplement the family income.
Lu Jingxing nodded when he heard this, but he was thinking about something in his mind.
He didn't want to be like his comrades, who had girlfriends who mistook people for the wrong ones when they went to pick them up because they hadn't seen each other for a long time. Miaomiao was not old enough to get married yet. If someone deceived Miaomiao with sweet words, wouldn't he go crazy?
At this moment, Lu Jingxing even forgot that this was the first time he and Miaomiao met. She was a little more familiar with him than a stranger. This barber's enthusiastic look was really...
In short, the temporary job at Miaomiao Guesthouse is not that stable now, and it is too far from him. If it really doesn't work out, he will go to the county tomorrow to find a place to call and ask if there is a more suitable job for Miaomiao in the military area or nearby.
The girl is still a high school student and has a very good academic background.
Besides, they are future military dependents after all, right?
My superiors are pushing me so hard to find a partner, I should at least help out, right?
This way, my future marriage will be a little more certain...
However, before these ideas were implemented, Lu Jingxing did not express them all, but only gave a few symbolic words of encouragement.
“That’s good, and it’s pretty solid.
If you have any difficulties at work or want to change jobs, you can also tell me.
I know some friends who might be able to help.”
Miaomiao was a little flattered and quickly thanked him.
"Thank you, Brother Lu."
That’s right, thanks to Lu Jingxing’s secret efforts, Miaomiao now calls him “Brother Lu” instead of “Captain Lu”.
In fact, Miaomiao is currently thinking about another matter, but she still needs to wait for an opportunity and try her best to reveal the information about the old rogue in the textile factory to the son of luck without making any noise.
This is an enemy spy, and anyone can kill him.
Therefore, it is almost necessary to put it on, even though Miaomiao felt a sense of oppression that made her scalp tingle, and an inexplicable sticky feeling from this son of luck, but those were all trivial matters.
If she fails to complete her mission, she can help the little girl get revenge, and it would be even better if she can prevent the old man from harming fewer people.
For a moment, Miaomiao even thought about breaking the old man's third leg first...
But it was just a momentary delusion. After all, no matter how much of an elf she was now, she was still an ordinary person. This was even a society ruled by law. She couldn't come here blindly. Everything had to rely on evidence.
The two didn't talk much after that. Lu Jingxing also saw that the girl's heart was on her future father-in-law, so he just asked for another glass of water and let the girl go back to rest.
Looking at Miaomiao's brisk back as she left, Lu Jingxing could hardly restrain his eyes from staring at the little girl.
Just one look at it makes my heart soften as water and sweet as honey.
Now that it was finally time for him to be alone, Lu Jingxing had to admit one thing.
Although he was an atheist, this time God favored him, showed him this place, and let him see the girl, who made him happy to see and miss her ecstatically.
However, he also had some hidden worries in his heart, because after seeing his future father-in-law Guan Chongshan, he suddenly realized one thing -
The man whose eyelids were red and swollen from crying was his father-in-law...
