I loaded up the life makeover game

Chapter 140 Don't Let Her Be Wronged
Chen Xiu'an found out that his task of buying gifts for Rao Xuehui and Jiang Zhi hadn't been completed yet.

It is estimated that it will not be completed until Jiang Zhi receives the gift.

Chen Xiu'an planned to give it to Jiang Zhi tomorrow after meeting her.

But the mission reward is quite interesting.

Chen Xiu'an has never heard of any Doraemon anime, but Chen Xiu'an thinks the function of the memory bread is quite good.

It happens to be the final exam, so it can play a certain role.

Chen Xiu'an sent Rao Xuehui back to the community where the other party lived, and then back to school.

Rao Xuehui hoped that Chen Xiu'an would not go back to school, but she obviously couldn't tell Chen Xiu'an to stay.

When Rao Xuehui returned to her residence, the first thing she did was to take out the scarf Chen Xiuan bought for her.

Although it was just an ordinary scarf, Rao Xuehui was very happy when she saw that it was pink.

This means that Chen Xiu'an still remembers that she likes pink.

She held the scarf in her hand and looked at it for a while, and then wrapped it around her neck. After making gestures in front of the mirror for a long time, Rao Xuehui smiled happily, and the more she looked at the gift, the more she liked it.

She plans to wear it every day in the future.

After Chen Xiu'an returned to the dormitory, she casually threw the gifts for the three of them to them.

The three of them didn't show any pretense, they had the expression of a son who would respect his father when he grows up.

But boys are like this, but if you say thank you or something, it will make people feel embarrassed.

"Old Jiang, you won't lie down until now, will you?"

Chen Xiuan asked in shock when she found that she was still in bed after she came back.

Jiang Ming retorted, "No!"

"I also went down to eat takeaway and go to the toilet."

Hearing Jiang Ming's answer, the three of Chen Xiu'an were speechless.

"Tomorrow will certainly not be the case."

"I will definitely get out of bed!"

Jiang Ming said.

But after the lights were turned off, the other three fell asleep within 2 minutes of going to bed, but Jiang Ming was not in good spirits.

This guy Jiang Ming sleeps too much during the day, and at night his energy is low and he suffers from insomnia
The next day, Chen Xiuan came back from running in the morning, and then stayed in the dormitory all morning, only to find that Jiang Ming was still sleeping soundly.

Ji Jin was also in the dormitory, and he said, "I got up at five o'clock this morning to go to the bathroom, and his phone was still on."

Chen Xiu'an expressed that Jiang Ming was hopeless.

At noon, Chen Xiu'an went to find Jiang Zhi.

"Give."

Downstairs in Jiang Zhi's dormitory, Chen Xiuan handed Jiang Zhi the doll she bought for him.

"Did you buy it for me?"

Jiang Zhi asked happily.

The doll is an anime character she likes, a humanoid elk that looks a bit cool and cute.

"It's not that I feel a little sorry that I have known my senior for so long and have never given a gift."

Chen Xiuan said.

Jiang Zhi smiled and asked, "Shouldn't it be a token of love?"

After hearing Jiang Zhi's words, Chen Xiu'an didn't know how to answer.

But then Jiang Zhi quickly continued: "Hahahaha, I won't tease you."

"Anyway, thank you for your gift."

"Wait for me, I'll go back to the dormitory and put it away."

Jiang Zhi waved the doll in her hand at Chen Xiu'an, and said.

Then the two left the school together and took the bus to the place where Jiang Zhi lived.

Because the two of them hadn't had lunch yet, Jiang Zhi said that she took Chen Xiu'an to eat at the noodle shop where she grew up as a snack.

When he arrived at the location, Chen Xiu'an found that it was a noodle shop in a residential building.

There was no signboard, only four or five tables, and no customers at this time.

"Grandma Liu."

Jiang Zhi shouted towards the inside of the noodle shop.

"Who?"

Chen Xiu'an saw an old man with gray hair coming out but looking very energetic.

"Little Jiang Zhi, you haven't come to eat noodles for a long time."

"I thought I had forgotten this old woman."

After seeing Jiang Zhi, the old man showed a kind smile and said.

"How come~"

Jiang Zhi said.

It was the first time Chen Xiu'an saw Jiang Zhi like this, her tone became soft, giving people the feeling of a little girl acting like a spoiled child.

"Hahaha."

"What do you want to eat? Mother-in-law will make it for you."

Granny Liu said.

Then he found Chen Xiu'an next to Jiang Zhi.

"This is?"

When Chen Xiuan saw the other party looking at her, she took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, mother-in-law."

"I'm my senior's classmate. We go to the same school."

After Granny Liu heard what Chen Xiu'an said, she didn't answer immediately, but started to look Chen Xiu'an up and down.

After a while, he finally showed the same smile as before, and said:
"it is good."

"pretty good."

"Sit down first, I'll cook noodles for you."

"Little Jiang Zhi, say hello to your classmates."

After Granny Liu finished speaking, she turned and went in.

"How old is Granny Liu?"

Chen Xiu'an looked away, and then asked.

"More than 70."

Seeing Chen Xiu'an's surprised look, Jiang Zhi smiled and said:
"Can't you see it?"

Chen Xiu'an nodded, and said, "The old man looks really good."

"This noodle shop has been open for more than 30 years."

"Older than me."

"When I was in elementary school, my father would bring me to eat a bowl of Sanxian noodles every morning."

"Originally, my mother-in-law's son wouldn't let her continue to open it, but it was my mother-in-law who insisted on opening it."

"The neighbors on our side are usually used to this taste, and if they can't eat it for a while, they may not be used to it."

Jiang Zhi took out two from a stack of plastic stools and handed one to Chen Xiu'an, and said.

After the two sat down, Jiang Zhi took out a few cloves of garlic from the small porcelain pot with a sense of age on the table, and handed it to Chen Xiu'an.

"If you eat noodles without garlic, the taste will be reduced by half."

After Chen Xiu'an and Jiang Zhi peeled off the garlic cloves, they waited for a while.

Granny Liu came out with a bowl of steaming hot noodles.

"Here comes the beef noodles!"

Upon seeing this, Chen Xiu'an quickly stood up and took the initiative to take the noodles from the other party's hand.

"There's another bowl, it'll be ready soon."

After Granny Liu finished speaking, she walked towards the kitchen in the back without stopping.

And Chen Xiu'an put the noodles in front of Jiang Zhi.

But then Jiang Zhi pushed the noodles back to Chen Xiu'an.

"This is my territory, the guests eat first."

Chen Xiu'an did not refuse, and took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick box on the table.

Chen Xiu'an found that there were large chunks of beef slices on top of the big bowl, and it was almost impossible to see the noodles underneath.

He guessed that this would definitely not be the amount Granny Liu usually sells.

Most likely it was special care for Jiang Zhi.

Not long after, another bowl of noodles came up.

The noodles tasted great and the portion was generous.

After eating, Chen Xiu'an even drank the soup.

Sure enough, seeing this scene, Granny Liu who was sitting beside her had a happy smile on her face.

The taste of the noodles themselves is certainly not that over the top.

But knowing that it was made by an old man in his 70s, he really had a different feeling when he ate it.

And Chen Xiu'an also cooks, knowing that what she cooks is recognized is a very happy thing.

And the easiest way to judge to be recognized is to finish eating.

After eating, Jiang Zhi stood up and paid.

Originally, Chen Xiu'an thought that the two of them would refuse for a while because of the money.

But that's not the case.

Granny Liu accepted the cash given by Jiang Zhi without any excuse.

It was only now that Chen Xiu'an realized that the two should be very familiar with each other. Regarding the matter of collecting money, it would be impossible for them to refuse each other for a long time every time.

"Boy."

When leaving, Chen Xiu'an was stopped by Granny Liu.

"What's the matter, mother-in-law?"

Chen Xiuan asked.

"You have to take good care of little Jiang Zhi."

"She was a poor child."

"But I have watched her grow up carefully and kindly. Don't let her be wronged."

Granny Liu held Chen Xiu'an's hand, and her eyes shone brightly when she spoke.

Chen Xiuan was stunned for a moment, originally wanting to explain something.

But then he still said: "Mother-in-law, don't worry."

"I won't let her be wronged."

After hearing Chen Xiu'an's words, the old man seemed to be relieved at last.

"That's fine, that's fine."

"Little Jiang Zhi will leave it to you."

"You are the boy he brought to eat noodles for the first time."

"what happened?"

Jiang Zhi at the door of the store looked back and saw what Chen Xiu'an and the old man were talking about, so she yelled.

"It's okay, let's go."

Chen Xiu'an left the store, trotted up to Jiang Zhi and said.

"Goodbye, mother-in-law!"

Then he waved to the old man at the door of the store.

Although Jiang Zhi was curious about what the two said, she didn't ask and followed Chen Xiu'an to say goodbye to Granny Liu.

After eating the noodles, Jiang Zhi was going to take Chen Xiu'an to buy the ingredients for dinner.

After all, it seemed as if Jiang Zhi was preparing to cook in person.

Chen Xiu'an had heard from Jiang Zhi that her house in Rongcheng was left to her after her parents divorced.

Her parents went to pursue their own happiness, maybe because of guilt, maybe because they were afraid that Jiang Zhi would disturb her life, anyway, this old house became Jiang Zhi's.

The house is not far from Rongda, but the area where it is located is the old city of Rongcheng.

We are in a situation where people are talking about demolition all the time, but there is no accurate news yet.

The building density here is also much higher than some other places.

They are all small alleys and residential buildings with no elevators and low floor heights.

"It used to be very lively here."

"But now it seems that there are fewer and fewer people."

"People have moved away, and the house is here, waiting for the demolition to lose money."

Jiang Zhi was talking while leading Chen Xiu'an in the complicated alley.

Chen Xiu'an heard an inexplicable sadness in Jiang Zhi's tone.

"But the food is cheap."

"Compared with supermarkets and wet markets outside, prices here are much cheaper."

Jiang Zhi didn't seem to be too caught up in such emotions, and then said with a smile.

It wasn't Chen Xiu'an who was cooking today, but she followed Jiang Zhi all the way, watching the other party buy all kinds of vegetables, and then guessing what Jiang Zhi was going to cook.

"Little Jiang, are you here to buy vegetables again?"

"Yes, Aunt Wang."

Chen Xiu'an found that in the vegetable market here, there seemed to be quite a few people who knew Jiang Zhi.

And because it's Jiang Zhi, these aunts and uncles who sell vegetables will all give her more vegetables by coincidence.

One or two tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and garlic.

Along the way, there is really a lot of money left.

Chen Xiu'an was in charge of carrying things, while Jiang Zhi was in charge of buying.

After coming out of the vegetable market here, Jiang Zhi took Chen Xiu'an to her home.

"I didn't see it, senior sister, you are quite popular?"

Chen Xiuan said.

After Jiang Zhi heard it, she smiled and replied: "Of course."

After a while, he added: "Maybe I think I'm too miserable, so please sympathize."

"But I'm actually not as miserable as these uncles and aunts think."

"They thought I was the only one left after my parents divorced."

"He watched me grow up again, so he took good care of me in normal times."

"I still remember when my parents quarreled when I was young, some of them would go to my house on purpose."

"My parents stopped arguing when they saw guests coming."

"That's when I was able to do my homework quietly."

When Jiang Zhi said this, she didn't feel any sadness.

Instead, it seemed to be talking about a rare and ordinary thing.

Chen Xiu'an fell silent.

Before, he didn't think much about what happened to Jiang Zhi.

It's just that the neighbors on Jiang Zhi's side are quite kind and take care of her.

I didn't expect that there was such a reason in it.

He didn't continue. He looked at the alleys extending in all directions and changed the subject. "The roads here are so complicated. If I come here alone, I might get lost."

After Jiang Zhi heard Chen Xiu'an's words, she smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know this place very well."

"The place where I grew up."

"Every alley is full of my footprints."

Jiang Zhi led Chen Xiuan to turn left and right, and finally arrived at the destination.

It is an old-fashioned residential building with only five floors in total, with three families on each floor.

"In the past, this building was actually full of people."

"But now there seem to be only seven households left."

"The circuit here is aging, and there are frequent power outages. In addition, it is full of alleys, and it is difficult for cars to drive in, so many people have moved out."

"Or there are only some retired old people who are used to living and are unwilling to move away."

Chen Xiu'an looked at the old residential building in front of her, and said, "The memories of a lifetime are not just let go."

After hearing what Chen Xiu'an said, Jiang Zhi nodded in agreement.

"Actually, many people, including me, don't want this place to be demolished."

"Although some people who have moved away are looking forward to the demolition to get the demolition fee."

"But if it is demolished, it will be in ruins."

"A lot of people don't have a chance to see each other again."

After Chen Xiu'an heard Jiang Zhi's words, she was also a little embarrassed for a while.

It is true that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.

In the past, the relationships between neighbors lasted for decades or even a lifetime.

Unlike now, in many communities, you may have lived for a long time, but you don't even know the name of the neighbor next door.
