Barracks of Rebirth

Chapter 199: A Sad Story

??I thought Zhao Fan just took them to find a place to have a bite, but at this time, there are still many customers in such a small shop at such a late hour. expected.

The four of them came in and found a convenient place to sit down.

"Ji Xin'an, don't look at the small shop here, but the dishes are authentic. The boss has opened the shop here for many years. Many graduates in the past know this shop even if they don't know the dean of their department. And they The first thing I do after returning to school is to come here for a meal." Zhao Fan was afraid that she would feel bad about this shop, so he explained.

"That's right, and it's very clean here, you can eat with peace of mind." Ouyang Shuxue also said with a smile, it seems that this is not the first time he has come here.

Ji Xin'an shook her head indifferently. When she was at home, she often went to night markets and food stalls to eat snacks, so she smiled, "A lot of delicious food is not in five-star hotels, but in roadside stalls like this. Yes, they represent the food of a city, but I haven't been able to find the right place since I first came here."

"This little girl is a first-year freshman, so she probably hasn't been here before, but you are right. I dare not say whether it is delicious or not, but our family's craftsmanship is passed down from generation to generation. It is definitely the most authentic local snack. You Look at these students from the military academy, who has stayed at my house for four years." The proprietress just heard Ji Xin'an's words when she came over, and she was immediately overjoyed, but she had never met her before, so she concluded that she was a freshman newborn.

"Miss Boss, don't be modest. If you don't eat good food here, you won't be able to find a good place." The people at the other tables shouted after hearing what she said. It seems that they are all regular customers and are used to it. It was a joke, and the proprietress smiled indifferently, as if she was used to it.

Ji Xin'an turned to look at the proprietress, she should be the same age as her mother, but most of her hair was white, she looked much older, but her smile made people feel very kind, so she also turned back to her. a smile.

Zhao Fan also laughed, but he stopped talking and wasting time. After all, they also sneaked out, so they didn't even look at the menu, and ordered a few dishes casually, "Miss Boss, we are hungry today. Let the master hurry up."

"Okay, no problem." The proprietress quickly wrote it down, and went to the back to urge the dishes.

Ji Xin'an looked around with a smile, and there were students from the military academy who were having a good meal, and they seemed to have sneaked out like them, but Zhao Fan only glanced at them, and didn't say hello to them, nor did he say anything. What, it seems that each other has a tacit understanding, and everyone is used to it.

And more of them are adults, and they should have nothing to do with the students of the school. They should be ordinary people, and they seem to like this place very much.

"Not only students from our school often come here, because it is very famous in this city, many people like to come here to eat, even if they live far away from here, they also come by car, that is, there is still time for us to come here. Location, if you don’t have a place to eat when you catch up with meals, you will occasionally set up a table outside to eat.” Ouyang Shuxue said seeing Ji Xin’an’s curiosity.

"Then why don't they change to a bigger store or move to a more prosperous place? There will be more people, and more people will have a place to sit. It's not that they can't afford to leave when they come." Ji Xin'an asked curiously Dao, looking at the current situation, it is about to be full, but people come in from time to time. This is still this time. If it is normal, there may be more people. If you change to a bigger restaurant, there will be more people.

"They won't leave. We heard from the former school girls that their family's craftsmanship is ancestral, and they were not here before. It's just that their son was admitted to our school. When he was admitted to the military academy, the husband and wife married each other. I moved the shop here so that I can be closer to my son and see him often, but after so many years, I haven't changed the place." Ouyang Shuxue explained her confusion.

"But after so many years, their son has graduated long ago, why are they still here?" Ji Xin'an understood why they were obsessed with the military academy after hearing this, but since they have been running for many years, their son has already joined the army I have been working here for several years, how can I still have a soft spot for this place.

After hearing her words, Zhao Fan was silent for a while, and then said, "He is no longer here."

Ji Xin'an was taken aback when he heard this, but he never expected such a situation.

"When he went to practice in the army in his senior year, he happened to catch up with a mission. He was chosen to be an undercover agent because he was a stranger. Everything was going well at first, and the case was about to be closed, but it was exposed because of a small detail. He was thrown directly at the gate of the Public Security Bureau. When he was discovered, the tendons in his hands and feet were broken, his eyes were gouged out, and his face was scratched.

Seeing him like that, all the policemen present at the scene cried. His parents fainted when they found out about the incident, and their hair turned white overnight. "

Ji Xin'an fell silent after hearing this, "Are they still here to commemorate him?"

Zhao Fan nodded, "After their son's funeral was over, they were chased as martyrs. The school gave them a considerable pension, and the leader also wanted to give them an easy job, so they don't have to work so hard, but they But they declined, and they still opened this snack bar here, only as if their son was still going to school on the other side of the wall, but he couldn't come out because of school discipline, and after that, they stopped crying and looked at the people who came and went with a smile every day. Military cadets, treat them like your own sons.

Later, the restaurant became more and more famous, and many students jumped over the wall to come here to eat. Many teachers and instructors in the school knew about it, but because they came here, they didn’t care much about turning a blind eye and closing their eyes. Forget it, when there are veterans resettled in the future, the school leaders will send special people to work here, so that they will not be so tired, and they have been doing this until now. "

Ouyang Shuxue continued, "Moreover, the furnishings in this store have never changed. It has been the same for many years. Maybe they are thinking about others by seeing things."

Ji Xin'an didn't expect that this ordinary couple would have such a heart-wrenching story, and when he looked at the two busy in the kitchen, his eyes suddenly changed. "They are so pitiful. Their son, who has been raised for so many years, has just graduated from college, but even Cheng Huan's child is in a hurry, and there will be no more. Anyone else would die of grief."

"Yes, it's the saddest thing for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person." Zhao Fan also said with emotion.

"Almost all the students in our school know their stories. Most of them are told by the seniors of the previous class to the next class. It is a tradition. Let us always remember this senior and this pair of parents. They are all excellent, yes The pride of our school." Li Xue said while looking at Ji Xin'an.

Ji Xin'an nodded, she was also proud to have such a senior. Just when a few people were feeling emotional, a few more people came outside the door. They were all wearing police uniforms, and they seemed to be regular customers. As soon as they came in, they found a place to sit down by themselves. One of the policewomen walked towards the kitchen, but Ji Xinan glanced at them. It can be seen that this policewoman is none other than the senior sister Wang Lan who helped them when they had conflicts with others when they just started school.

"Zhao Fan, wait a minute. I'll meet someone I know. Go over and say hello." Ji Xin'an stood up. Since he saw it, he couldn't keep silent, let alone he had helped them.

Although Zhao Fan and the others were a little surprised, they still nodded.

Seeing Wang Lan enter the kitchen, Ji Xin'an didn't rush to greet her, but waited for her to come out.

On the other side, Wang Lan went inside and said with a smile. "Godmother, we're here for dinner again.

"Lan Lan is here, why are you so busy today? Isn't the office busy?" The proprietress raised her head and looked outside the door. When she saw her, there was a smile on her face, but it could be seen that it was from the heart Happy.

"We just handled a case. We didn't even eat, so we drove to your place. We haven't been here for a long time. I miss you." Wang Lan came to help, but was stopped.

"Don't be too busy, you must be starving. Godmother will cook for you what you want to eat." The proprietress said with a smile.

"No need, just order a few dishes to fill your stomach. Anyway, they don't choose anything, and I just want to talk to you, so I can't eat anything now." Wang Lan shook her head, knowing that she hadn't cooked for a long time I don't want her to be too tired.

"That's okay, I'm tired all night, how can I not eat something good at night, you don't have to worry about it, go sit and wait, I guarantee it's all your favorite food." The proprietress said and pushed her away Come out, smile and go to prepare dishes, if you pay attention, you can hear her humming a song.

Seeing this, Wang Lan retreated helplessly, but heard a voice, "Senior sister, hello."

"You...you are Ji Xin'an?" Wang Lan turned her head and saw a girl in military uniform. She didn't recognize who it was for a while, but then she remembered that it was a girl from her classmate team , was also the one who took the initiative to stand up and apologize in the last fight.

She didn't look like a soldier at all in casual clothes that day, but today she was wearing a military uniform, so she couldn't be recognized but she didn't blame her.

"Senior sister really has a good memory, and she can still remember who I am." Ji Xin'an smiled and nodded, unexpectedly she still remembered herself.

"Are you here to eat too?" It wasn't surprising to see her standing here, after all, there were too many military cadets here, even at night.

Ji Xin'an nodded, "We didn't eat dinner. There is nothing to eat in school at this time, so we came out to solve it."

"You guys jumped over the wall secretly, right? You jumped over the wall when you were a freshman. You're quite courageous." Wang Lan smiled, and didn't mean to blame her. Not qualified for this.

What's more, she is also a graduate of the military academy. She knows the life in the military academy very well. Although the discipline is quite strict, there will always be loopholes for them to take advantage of, and the students will always have some outrageous behaviors, but as long as they are not excessive, it is fine. Occasionally running out like this, they often do it when they are in school.

And it seems to be one of the happiest things in their tense lives.

"The senior brought me here, otherwise I would not have found this place." Ji Xin'an smiled, and did not make any excuses, and after seeing Zhao Fan's indifference, he didn't think it was a big deal.

After hearing Ji Xin'an's words, Wang Lan felt a little lonely, "It's so fast, it's another new student. When I was led by my seniors to climb over the wall and run out to play, it felt like it was just yesterday, but now it's gone. It’s been so many years.” Looking at this familiar small shop, it seems that they can still hear their cheerful laughter, but things are different.

"Senior sister, are you okay?" Ji Xin'an was taken aback when she saw that she fell silent all of a sudden, feeling that she must also be someone with a story.

Wang Lan also came back to her senses, and then realized that she was talking to her, and smiled lightly, "I'm fine, I just remembered some past events."

Seeing that she was fine, Ji Xin'an also knew that what she said about the past must not be a pleasant one, so he didn't ask any more, but changed the subject and said, "I heard that the food here is delicious, do senior sisters come here often? It’s been so many years since I graduated and I’m still coming back.”

"Of course, I have fallen in love with the food here since I came here in freshman year. You may not know it when you are just a freshman. After eating it, you will think about it if you don't eat it for a few days. And after graduation, you What I miss the most may not be the scenery of the campus, but the food here." Wang Lan exaggerated when she heard her mention the food here, and it seems that she also has a soft spot for this place.

Before Ji Xin'an could answer in a hurry, the proprietress came out, "You came here again to make a show for me? Don't let the cowhide blow out."

"How could it be? The food at my godmother's house is the best in the city." As she spoke, Wang Lan returned to her smile, "Godmother, let me introduce you. This is Ji Xin'an, a soldier under Luo Min. But it is quite powerful, and it is not a problem to deal with three or five people."

Then he looked at Ji Xin'an, "Ji Xin'an, this is the godmother of me and your team leader, and also the proprietress of this shop. After a while, you have to taste their dishes here, and you must think about it twice."

"So it's Luo Min's soldier, so it's a family. Ji Xin'an, right? I'll come here often in the future. I'll give you a discount. Just tell me what you want to eat." After hearing this, the proprietress greeted Ji Xin'an enthusiastically. They are also very familiar with their captain.

Ji Xin'an just wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to call her. This generation is too messy, and after learning her story, Ji Xin'an respected her from the bottom of his heart, so at this time I don't know what to say.

Seeing Ji Xin'an's hesitation, the proprietress smiled, "You can call me the proprietress just like them, and don't worry about them." She seemed very proud of this title.

Seeing that she was so easy to get along with, Ji Xin'an also smiled and nodded.

Just as they were talking about Ji Xin'an's dishes, their dishes came, and the proprietress personally took them over and put them on their table, "Eat quickly, it won't taste good after a while, you should try it yourself, don't just listen to what they say of."

"The dishes are here, you can eat quickly, I won't bother you anymore, I'll go back to eat too." Seeing this, Wang Lan said with a smile, and said goodbye to her.

Ji Xin'an nodded, "Goodbye, senior."

When Ji Xin'an returned to his desk, Zhao Fan was very curious to see that she met an acquaintance, "Acquaintance?"

"Oh, we met once, but it helped us a lot." Of course, Ji Xin'an couldn't tell how they met, and that was their secret.

"But I heard you call her senior sister, and this senior sister seems to know the proprietress very well, does she also graduate from our school?" Zhao Fan knew that her family was not from the city, and she hadn't been in school for long, so how could she know each other? What about the seniors from our school in the past?

"She is our captain's classmate and helped us, so I always call her senior sister. I don't know what happened between her and the boss's wife, but I just heard her call her godmother." Ji Xin'an's words satisfied their curiosity.

"Your captain? That's it. They should all be in the same team. Because all the students in their class are godsons and goddaughters of the proprietress." Ouyang Shuxue said.

Ji Xin'an was taken aback when he heard this, how could there be so many godsons and goddaughters, but after thinking about it, he immediately understood, "They and her son are in the same class, right?"

All three nodded, obviously understanding.

When Ji Xin'an saw her, she thought of Wang Lan's expression just now. She must have thought of her classmate who died. Maybe they are very good friends, or some other relationship. No matter what, facing this familiar The small shop, but the person has already gone away, no wonder she has such a lonely expression.

And his parents, Ji Xin'an didn't understand why they stayed here persistently, facing the places where their son had been every day, wouldn't it be painful again, wouldn't this be another torture for them.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, Ji Xin'an hasn't eaten the food here yet, come and taste it." Zhao Fan saw that the atmosphere was a bit dull, so he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Seeing this, Ji Xin'an stopped thinking about it, picked up the chopsticks, took a bite of the dish and put it in his mouth, then nodded while eating, "It's really delicious, I've never tasted such delicious food since I've been here for so long dishes."

"Eat more if it tastes good. When you get acquainted with the police in the future, you can come anytime if you want to eat. This is another benefit of joining the student union." Zhao Fan laughed when he saw her, but his expression was like a The big gray boy who taught the little white rabbit badly.

"So you have always used power for personal gain like this?" Ji Xin'an raised his head and looked at him. After a period of contact, he and Zhao Fan were considered friends. Now that they are in the same office, it is normal to joke around. .

"We are making reasonable use of the rules, and you will definitely like this feeling in the future." Ouyang Shuxue also laughed, but felt that Ji Xin'an's performance was not bad, and it was the first time he was led to turn over When touching the wall, I don't know how surprised it was, but it was not as calm as hers.

After hearing what she said, Ji Xin'an once again felt that the student union was not as serious as she imagined, and it seemed that even the serious Li Xue was no exception.

At this moment, Ji Xin'an's cell phone vibrated. Ji Xin'an thought it was a text message from Zou Ze. He just wanted to hide and read it, but he didn't move when he thought of something. He looked up and asked them, "Since the rules such as going out of school can be broken, shouldn't it be fine to bring a mobile phone or something?"

"Mobile phone? Do you want to use it? Although the request is not allowed, as long as it is not found, there is no problem, and it seems that few people use it now." Zhao Fan nodded, and said with some surprise, you must know that at this time The mainstream is still a BP machine, and there are very few people who can afford a mobile phone. Even if they check, they will rarely see someone using it.

"Hey, you said it earlier, so I have to go to the bathroom to read a text message." Ji Xin'an said, then took out his phone and started to read.

Sure enough, it was a text message from Zou Ze, asking her what time she was going back and if she had eaten.

Ji Xin'an smiled lightly, and told him that he did not go back after working overtime until the lights were turned off, and that he went out to eat with his seniors, and emphasized that he got out over the wall.

After replying the text message, she raised her head and saw the three of them staring at her in a daze, "What's wrong with me, is there something dirty on my face?" Ji Xin'an asked, feeling a little uncomfortable seeing them.

"You...is this your mobile phone?" Ouyang Shuxue said in surprise, pointing to the latest mobile phone in her hand.

Ji Xin'an nodded, "Do you have any questions? Didn't you just say you're fine?"

Ouyang Shuxue shook his head, "It's true that it's okay, but why did your cell phone pop up out of nowhere, did you buy it for your family?"

"No, a friend gave it to me when I went back this winter vacation. They said it was for the convenience of contacting, so I couldn't refuse it, so I accepted it." Ji Xin'an said with a smile.

At this time, Zhao Fan also came back to his senses and shook his head helplessly. It seems that he had always thought she was a good girl, and he was really wrong. He climbed out of the wall with them, and he was not surprised at all, but kept it private. It will take time to really get to know her with a cell phone that violates discipline.

Ji Xin'an didn't know what he was feeling in his heart, the text message was replied quickly, Zou Ze's reaction was still in her expectation, even surprised and envious, he couldn't help laughing when he saw it, and then ate it with one hand After eating, the other hand skillfully went back, telling him to go to bed early, and taking him out to eat later.

"Are you sending text messages? Why are you sending them so fast?" Ouyang Shuxue asked after seeing that she could do it with one hand.

"No, it's just a few keys, just write them down." Ji Xin'an said with a smile, not to mention one hand, maybe he can type with his eyes closed now, but it's right to think that they were surprised, How many years have I used my mobile phone, and this is a new thing for them, but they didn't explain much.

Li Xue noticed her smile, and laughed when she heard that she was sending a text message, "Who is this text message for? The smile is almost sweet."

Special thanks: "Elyem" votes, I won't say anything else, although I can't guarantee it, but I will work hard tomorrow.
