After the news about Zhou Xu being his younger brother spread in the school, some people began to make irresponsible remarks. Zhou Xu felt that they were all children and didn't want to talk to them at all. However, Ding Zhaolin quarreled with them when the class was about to start.
After a few words of quarreling, the teacher came, and Ding Zhaolin had always been a good student, so the teacher naturally asked him to tell the story.
Ever since, the teacher asked those people to stand outside the classroom as punishment.
Zhou Xu thought it was funny, they talked for so long, Ding Zhaolin didn't say anything, but he had to refute it when the class was about to start, because why
Because the time is too short, it is impossible for them to fight, the teacher will come, and the person who insulted others is indeed not Ding Zhaolin, then he can kill three birds with one stone, first, gain the teacher's favor, and second, win Zhou Xu and the other The favor of a younger brother, and at the same time, the favor of a classmate who has a little sense of justice.
And after he came out, the only victim was Zhou Xu, because those few people didn't dare to touch Ding Zhaolin, the celebrity in front of the teacher, then they would definitely target Zhou Xu again.
Of course, without Ding Zhaolin, they might still bully Zhou Xu, but because of Ding Zhaolin, they knew that Zhou Xu was the first day of their younger brother, so they surrounded Zhou Xu and wanted to teach him a lesson.
But Zhou Xu can't tell the analysis process, he only needs to outline the follow-up things, and then blur the process, so that his father and father can lock the target on Ding Zhaolin.
Zhou Xu put down the knife and fork, and said with a little embarrassment: "Father, Dad, today I was surrounded by Zhaolin when I was walking with him. I was a little scared, so I held Zhaolin's hand and refused to let him go. But Zhaolin Lin still left, he said to call someone, but I knew that because I was a younger brother, they would definitely bully me after Zhaolin left. No matter what I said, Zhaolin was unwilling to stay. Alas, I really I didn't expect Zhaolin to leave me behind."
When Ding Zhaolin heard this, he became anxious, and immediately began to defend: "I really went to find someone, Xiaoxu."
"Yeah, you left me to look for it. Until we finished the fight, you didn't find the person you were looking for. I don't know who you are looking for. It took so long."
"Xiao Xu, if you say that, I..."
"I'm sorry, Zhaolin, I'm really disappointed today. The moment you left me, I felt like I was wrong. But don't worry, we will still be friends in the future."
Zhou Xu showed tolerance and generosity. Although he was a little concerned about Ding Zhaolin's betrayal, he decided to forgive him. In the eyes of his parents, he was already the best child. On the other hand, Ding Zhaolin, the child next door they trusted, unexpectedly turned out to be Such people.
Zhou Xu's father asked Zhou Xu: "Xiao Xu, are you okay? They didn't do anything to you, did they?"
Zhou Xu wanted to snort at first, but then he realized that he was only twelve years old, so he smiled shyly, raised his fist and said, "Don't worry, father, my fist is not fake."
Zhou Xu's father and father both turned to Ding Zhaolin this time, "Zhaolin, you just left Xiao Xu behind like that? You said you would protect Xiao Xu, but I don't think so in the future, we Xiao Xu can protect ourselves .”
"Indeed. He said he was going to find someone. When you find someone, if Xiaoxu hadn't protected himself, he would have been beaten, right? Zhaolin, is this the protection you told us?"
Zhou Liang smiled slightly and said to Ding Zhaolin: "Sorry, we are eating, Xiao Ding, if you don't eat, don't bother us. Goodbye."
Ding Zhaolin blushed with embarrassment. He didn't understand. Although Zhou Xu had a bad temper in the past, he was easy to coax and deceive. Why did something change suddenly
Looking at Zhou Xu uncertainly, Ding Zhaolin hesitated, and said: "Xiao Xu, I think you misunderstood, I didn't..."
Zhou Liang slapped the chopsticks on the table, and Ding Zhaolin jumped with a bang.
"Xiao Ding, we're eating!" Zhou Liang meant that they were eating, and told Ding Zhaolin to leave quickly, otherwise she would be impolite. How could Ding Zhaolin not understand, gritted his teeth, he could only turn around and leave.
Ding Zhaolin's family background is average. His father worked in the logistics department of the army, but he retired early due to health reasons. His mother is a woman and he has only one child. Now the whole family is counting on Ding Zhaolin. If he can marry a rich and powerful soldier , then their family has turned over.
As for Ding Zhaolin, he didn't know any soldiers. The only thing he cared about was Zhou Xu's second brother, Zhou Bin. Although he knew it well, Zhou Bin never seemed to have that kind of meaning for him.
In fact, the reason why he took care of Zhou Xu so much was because he wanted to get closer to Zhou Bin, but this time he found that Zhou Xu's family had never liked him, and even Zhou Xu, his younger brother, seemed to despise him.
Clenching his fists tightly, Ding Zhaolin walked towards his home step by step. There was nothing he could do about many things. He was only a few months older than Zhou Xu, and he was only twelve years old. Just a scheming boy.
In his own room, counting his fingers, Zhou Xu only has six years to reach the age of eighteen. In these six years, first of all, he only needs to train his body well, and second, he hopes that he can grow as tall as possible, because he I don't want to leave home in the end, but I don't know anything.
In fact, Zhou Xu in the previous life was a pianist before his death, and he was able to support himself well, but in the past few years from the age of twelve to eighteen, his character was softened, and because of the general environment that his younger brother had no status, He also despises himself deep down in his heart, and his extreme low self-esteem is also an important factor in his personality change.
However, this body is now in Zhou Xu's hands. The original owner likes piano, so Zhou Xu will make him a piano master. Believe he can do it.
However, there is another question, where is his lover
Forget it, Zhou Xu decided not to think about this problem, because his lover has chased him for five worlds, it is impossible not to come to the sixth world.
For six years, Zhou Xu borrowed his knowledge of more than a hundred worlds to exercise his body. At the age of eighteen, he actually grew to 1.73 meters.
This person is actually not tall, but among a bunch of brothers who are 1.6 meters tall, he stands out from the crowd.
On the day he turned eighteen, Zhou Xu officially left home. He was not qualified to enter the Imperial Military Academy as a younger brother, but he was very talented in piano, and several music halls wanted to accept him, but Zhou Xu refused in the end.
It was not because of anything else, but because Zhou Xu still decided to enter the barracks, which also deviated from his original idea.
At first, he hoped to live a wonderful life for the original owner. For example, the original owner loved the piano, but after Zhou Xu got to know the empire more and more, he found that he still wanted to join the army, just like the real world he lived in, he was also a soldier.
Others may not understand, but those who have actually joined the army probably have such an obsession with the barracks.
At the age of eighteen, he left his parents. The blue tear mole under the corner of his eye was covered with a flesh-colored band-aid. He walked into the military camp as a man.
Because Zhou Xu did not enter the army from a regular military academy, he could only start with the reserve supply at first, and after a month of observation and contact, he finally succeeded in becoming a soldier in the cooking class.
The cooking class, in short, is cooking.
The cooking class in this world is different from that in Zhou Xu's world. They are not so tiring, and they often only need to help cook one meal a day, and then another group of people will come to cook the next meal.
Because of this, Zhou Xu is actually quite free. When he is free, he goes to the restaurant, because there is an old piano in the corner of the restaurant.
The piano is almost a decoration now. At the beginning, a piano was placed in the dining room because the soldiers could have fun after eating. But after a period of time, very few people came to play it. It's just a decoration, but it's a pity that when the army bought this piano, they spent a lot of money.
The reason why Zhou Xu went to see it was not because he wanted to play the piano in front of everyone, but because the piano had not been used for a long time, so it was aging and the sound was not accurate. The backup department decided to sell it at a low price, at least not Take a seat in the restaurant.
Following the people in the backup office, Zhou Xu decided to use all the funds he currently had to buy this piano, not for anything else, but to give an explanation to the original owner.
In the end, the piano was moved back to his dormitory by Zhou Xu. Before moving away, Zhou Xu tried to play a piece of music.
The piece was very clean, and Zhou Xu played it very casually. The light in the corner was not bright, but it was this dim light that fell on Zhou Xu's fair face, adding a sense of holiness to his face.
Zhou Xu didn't notice that there were still a few people in the restaurant at this time, and among them, a man looked at Zhou Xu with interest until the person next to him called him: "Admiral, admiral?"
The man who was called the general turned his head and looked at Wu Mingdi: "What's the matter?"
"Your soup has spilled."
Mu Xinhua looked at the egg soup spilled on the table and was speechless for a while. Pulling out the paper towel next to him and wiping off the soup, he asked Wu Mingdi, "Colonel Wu, do you know who that player is playing the piano?"
Wu Mingdi looked at Zhou Xu, amazed at first, and then regretfully said: "I don't know, but since he came to the army, he must not be my brother, what a pity."
Mu Xinhua faintly glanced at Wu Mingdi, and asked, "What a pity?"
"Yes, although there are indeed cases where men and men are together, most of them are useless men who can't find a brother or a woman. General, you don't need to find a man, and if you want to, there are so many Brother can also let you choose."
"What if it were you?"
Wu Mingdi was slightly taken aback, and then said: "I like women."
Mu Xinhua pointed to Zhou Xu, and said to Wu Mingdi in front of him, "I like him."
Wu Mingdi was stunned again, the general's meaning was very clear, he just liked the person who played the piano, no matter if he was a man, a woman, an older brother, or a younger brother, it was just that he fell in love with him just because of a one-off chance. is it possible
Wu Mingdi once again looked at the man in the dark in the distance, serious and focused, and for some reason, there was a moment of hesitation in his heart.
Shaking his head, Wu Mingdi put his hesitation behind him. He has a crush, a woman and his sister, although they are not related by blood.
After Zhou Xu tried the piano, he found that the piano was actually very good. Although the pitch was not accurate, the sound was pure. As long as it was tuned a little and then trimmed, it was basically no different from a new piano.
If it is refurbished, Zhou Xu can resell this piano at three times the price. In this way, Zhou Xu has indeed made a profit.
Very satisfied, Zhou Xu asked several brothers from the cooking class to help carry the piano to his dormitory.
All the military dormitories in this empire are single rooms. Although they are not big, about twelve square meters, there is a separate bathroom and washroom inside, which is already very good.
Putting the piano next to the bedside by the window, Zhou Xu tried the pitch again, and then started tuning.
After tuning, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Zhou Xu hurried to the kitchen, because his class was in charge of the dinner that night.
A class in this world is not a dozen or twenty people, but more than sixty people, but the management is very strict. Zhou Xu is new here, and he is in charge of washing the vegetables. He was a few minutes late, and he will be fined to get up early tomorrow morning to help another class make breakfast.
Breakfast is the biggest headache for them, because they have to get up at 3:30 in the morning, start cooking at 4:00, and have to prepare everything by around 7:00, and there are many buns, pies and other things for breakfast, which need to make dough, so It is more time-consuming. Generally, those who make mistakes are assigned to the next breakfast-making shift.
It doesn't matter to Zhou Xu, a few hours of sleep is actually enough for him.
There were too many people in the room, so Zhou Xu simply went outside to wash the vegetables. While washing, Zhou Xu felt eyes on him.
Looking up, against the background of the setting sun, Zhou Xu only saw a black shadow, but Zhou Xu didn't feel good about this shadow, because he felt that his eyes were actually not very kind.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Xu asked without saying a word.
"What's your name? Which class are you in? What do you do?" Soi Ying spoke, but his tone was not friendly, as if he was asking questions.
After seeing the man's epaulets clearly, Zhou Xu stood up, saluted, and replied, "Hi Colonel, my name is Zhou Xu, and I'm in the seventh class of cooking, washing vegetables."
"Washer, is it you who played the piano in the restaurant today?"
Zhou Xu was also taken aback for a moment before he remembered that when he was playing the piano, there seemed to be a table of people in the other corner of the restaurant, but it was too far away, so he didn't notice it.
"Report, I played it."
Zhou Xu shifted his seat slightly so that he could see the face of the person opposite him more clearly, but when he saw it clearly, he wanted to laugh in his heart, it's really a narrow road to enemies, isn't this Wu Mingdi, Ding Zhaolin's future husband
Hehe, Zhou Xu thought about what this person did, and found that his crime was partial listening and partial belief. At first he believed in his parents, loved his sister and even fell in love with her. Believing in Ding Zhaolin, he even killed his sister directly, and finally killed Zhou Xu.
Throughout his life, Zhou Xu really doubted whether he had any ideas of his own
"You can play the piano, which means that your family is not bad. Why are you in the cooking class? If you go to the military academy, you won't be assigned to the cooking class."
"Report, because I am in poor health and have been rested for a few years, so now I can only work in the cooking class. However, I am also very proud here. I am a soldier. Soldiers don't care about positions, as long as they can serve the people!"
Wu Mingdi was blocked by Zhou Xu's clichés. He wanted to say something sarcastic, but he uttered such a long paragraph. If Wu Mingdi said anything against him, he would It seemed out of place, so he nodded and said, "Very good, just be enlightened."
"Thank you Colonel for your compliment!" Zhou Xu stood at attention and saluted. It seemed to be polite, but in fact, he was driving the colonel away.
Seeing that Zhou Xu stood at attention and saluted again, Wu Mingdi could only say, "Do your best, don't be lazy."
After finishing speaking, Wu Mingdi left, and Zhou Xu behind him stood at attention again and saluted, watching him go away.
When Wu Mingdi walked away, Zhou Xu smiled coldly. He believed that there would be opportunities to meet the colonel in the future, but he couldn't say for what it was.
The next day, Zhou Xu got up at 3:30 and rushed to the kitchen early to help, but was stuffed with a tray as soon as he arrived.
"Go, give it to Admiral Mu, every time he stays up late, he will ask for supper at this time."
"General Mu? Mu Xinhua?"
"Yes, hurry up, do you know where it is?"
"Know."
"Then hurry up, don't dawdle, there are not enough manpower, you who are punished can run errands for us."
"yes."
Mu Xinhua, the interstellar general, although he is not the highest interstellar general, but he is only twenty-nine, and those top generals are already in their fifties or sixties.
He is a mecha genius and also a military genius. He once led a ten-man mecha squad to destroy a hundred-man mecha team attacked by an alien planet, and he was still unscathed.
In this world, Mu Xinhua's name represents dignity, and he is still unmarried. The empire originally wanted to assign him a brother, but he refused. He said that he would rather never marry than accept the feelings assigned by others.
Walking to the door of Mu Xinhua's room, Zhou Xu held the tray with one hand and knocked lightly on the door with the other hand. After hearing "Come in", Zhou Xu pushed the door and entered.
The person inside didn't even raise his head, and was still concentrating on his official duties. He said while processing, "It's supper. Put it on the coffee table. I'll eat it later. You can go out. Thank you."
Zhou Xu didn't go out, because he had to climb up, and the most direct way to climb up was to get the general to notice him, of course, not in some unspeakable way, but aboveboard.
"Admiral, hello, my name is Zhou Xu."
The admiral raised his head, his eyes flickered for a moment, he looked at Zhou Xu, and seeing that Zhou Xu had no intention of going out, he leaned back, put his right hand on his forehead, and tapped his right index finger a few times, playfully. Looking at Zhou Xu carefully, he asked, "Is there something wrong, Zhou Xu?"
