The next day, after breakfast, the eldest brother was going back to the barracks. Jin Qiaohua was angry and refused to send it out. Wu refused to give up his son to go back so soon: "didn't you say you gave a few days off? You can't stay a few more days?"
Chen Yongnan said righteously: "I have a holiday for the brothers in the whole military camp. I'm restless and considerate. I can't take it for granted!"
Chen min'er said, "Mom, just let brother go back! Brother is still a recruit now! It's good to have a holiday."
Chen Zhengde dried his cigarette in his mouth, and there was no superfluous words: "the front attaches great importance to you. You have to do well. You don't have to worry at home."
Chen Yongnan nodded solemnly and handed the tiger in his arms to Wu: "take care of your father, mother and sister."
Then he looked at the side room and turned away.
There was no one at home, and I felt deserted. Fortunately, from time to time, some villagers came here to send the winter bamboo shoots dug in the mountain, the vegetables planted by themselves, and the home made Ma CI. The low atmosphere was soon diluted.
Chen min'er likes this simple and enthusiastic rural style very much. Although everyone's life is not rich, everyone is willing to share what good things they have. The neighbors help each other and are very harmonious. Chen min'er ponders that he has the ability now and should give back to the villagers. What should he do?
Invest in road construction? Well, the road to the village is bumpy. It's muddy and difficult to walk in rainy days. It's time to repair it.
Build a school? As far as she knows, there are no private schools in the nearby villages. Only rich Zhang's family invited a gentleman. It's more difficult for the children of the peasant family to study than to go to heaven. If a school can be built to let the children in the village know books and etiquette, it can be regarded as a boundless merit.
Her savings should be enough to do these things. As for opening a medicine shop, take your time!
When Chen min'er thought of doing it, he told his father what he thought. Chen Zhengde's eyes lit up: "girl, this is a great move! It just costs a lot."
Chen zhengdezi took two puffs of cigarettes, knocked the cigarette pole on the corner of the table and said, "let your mother take out all the gold."
Chen min'er was already very happy to get his father's approval. He smiled and said, "Dad, you should keep the gold yourself. My daughter has accumulated some on hand. It should be enough."
Chen Zhengde looked at his daughter in surprise. Is it so rich to be a royal doctor?
"Dad, let's go to the village head's house! Let's make a total. Let's set things down first. Everything we should prepare should be prepared first. When the weather gets warmer, we can start work."
Chen Zhengde was so excited that he put on cotton padded shoes under the Kang, inserted the cigarette rod into his waist, waved and said, "go, Dad, go with you."
Jin Qiaohua raised the curtain and came in, holding the tiger in her hand. She said bitterly, "Dad, I don't agree with this."
Chen Zhengde frowned unhappily: "what do women know?"
Jin Qiaohua stuck her neck and said, "my sister-in-law is so rich that she should first think of her own family. Her family is still poor, but she has to fight a swollen face to be fat. She patronizes to earn her own reputation, but she wants her family to suffer along with her. What's the matter?"
Chen Zhengde seldom lost his temper, but now he couldn't help getting angry and raised his voice: "are you too poor? Are you hungry or frozen in the Chen family? There aren't too many times to take other people's things. Asking you to pull out a hair is like killing you. What virtue."
