Goosebumps suddenly appeared on Xiaojie's body, and he took the first step to go home.
His aunt is great, but sometimes she talks nonsense!
Cheng Jingmo glared at her lovingly, took the things in her hands, and whispered: "Don't talk like this in front of Xiaojie, let's go home."
Yu Xiangnian leaned close to his ear and continued to tease him, "Do you want me to talk to you alone?"
Cheng Jingmo carried something in one hand, pulled up her sleeve with the other, and took her home.
"Why did you buy these things?" Cheng Jingmo asked, looking at the hydrogen peroxide and medicine in the bag.
Yu Xiangnian replied cheerfully: "I went to see a hoof trimmer today!"
"so what?"
What does hoof trimming have to do with buying these things?
Yu Xiangnian said: "If any animal has inflammation in its hoof, first disinfect it with hydrogen peroxide, sprinkle with medicinal powder, and wrap it with a cloth, and it will be cured."
She watched hoof trimming videos and it was all done this way.
Cheng Jingmo: "..."
It’s over! He actually hoped that one of the animals' hooves would become infected!
When I got home, my family had already eaten, and they said they had left food in the kitchen.
The three of them went to the kitchen and saw that what was left was three steamed buns and a few handfuls of leftover fried potato shreds.
Cheng Jingmo rolled up his sleeves and said, "Let's make some egg noodles."
The Cheng family was sitting inside and outside the main room, resting and chatting. The smell of scrambled eggs wafted from the kitchen.
Zhang Hongli took two greedy breaths and said, "Mom, I think they did it on purpose! They ran out during the meal on purpose, and waited for us to finish eating, so they could finish it themselves!"
Mu Huanzhen has always held a grudge against Cheng Jingmo for not letting Cheng Shuanshao take over as a soldier and not marrying Cheng Shuanchun.
She looked at Cheng Huazi and said quietly: "This is not her biological child. I can't raise her well."
Cheng Huazi smoked a dry cigarette and glanced at Mu Huanzhen, "Don't let Zhiwa and the others hear what you said."
"Father, mother, you can't talk about Brother Zhanwa like that!" Cheng Shuanzhuo said, "Although Brother Zhanwa has not been at home in the past few years, the family has spent a lot of his money."
Cheng Shuansuo said dissatisfied: "Without his parents, how could he be where he is now? What's wrong with spending some money on him?!"
Li Cuihua rolled her eyes disdainfully, "It's natural for my parents to spend his money, but who spends the most of the money he brings? How dare you say these things!"
Cheng Shuansuo said angrily: "Don't you ever spend it?! You have the nerve to accuse me!"
"Okay!" Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel, Cheng Huazi knocked the dry tobacco pole on the ground.
"Daddy is willing to spend the money I brought to my father from the baby! Spend more or less, don't tell anyone else!"
After eating, Yu Xiangnian took the eggs and brown sugar she bought back to her house. She didn't want to give them to the family.
Seeing Cheng Jingmo carrying the bucket out again, Zhang Hongli said disdainfully: "His precious wife must be taking a bath again!"
Li Cuihua scolded her, "I didn't let you pick, so why are you upset? Besides, carrying water was your business before. You haven't carried a load of water since the baby brother came back."
Zhang Hongli snorted coldly, "Aren't you just trying to curry favor with them by defending them like this? Do you still want to expect them to live a good life in the future?"
Li Cuihua also said coldly: "They brought this and that back, and they didn't offend you. Why do you always target them?"
The sisters-in-law never get along with each other, and they always have to argue.
Cheng Shuanshuo quickly pulled Li Cuihua away.
Brother Zhiwa's family has only come back for so many years, so don't cause trouble for them.
Yu Xiangnian could hear their conversation in the room.
But she didn't care what they said!
The water Cheng Jingmo carried in the morning was almost used up, so he carried it four more times to boil bath water and wash clothes.
It was dark before Yu Xiangnian could take a shower.
Due to limited conditions, she can only take a shower and change clothes once every two days.
In the cattle pen, a kerosene lamp was lit, and Yu Xiangnian was taking a bath.
Cheng Jingmo was waiting outside, ready to add water at any time.
One inside and one outside, chatting.
"Cheng Jingmo, this is the cow pen where you slept when you were a child?"
"Um."
"My third uncle said that my third uncle gave you three yuan back then. Have you paid it back?"
"Give it back."
When he first joined the army, the salary was very low and he had to send money to his family every month.
He lived frugally and saved for half a year. He saved enough twenty yuan and sent it to his third uncle.
"When I heard about the monkey today, I thought of you and felt very sorry for you!"
Cheng Jingmo said: "There are many situations like this in rural areas."
Perhaps because he had seen too much, Cheng Jingmo's voice was calm and emotionless.
Yu Xiangnian said: "So, our motherland must be prosperous and strong! We can help ten or twenty children like this, but there are so many such situations across the country, we can't help!"
"Only when our motherland becomes prosperous and powerful can we solve the problems of food, education, and medical care, so that people's lives can be guaranteed. We are young, so we should shoulder the responsibility for the prosperity and development of our motherland!"
This is Yu Xiangnian’s most profound realization in this era.
As a doctor, she can save hundreds or thousands of patients. But tens of millions of people in our country still live extremely poor lives.
With so much advanced knowledge, she should take on more responsibilities and play a greater role.
Our country needs to develop and integrate with international standards. She must be an excellent diplomat and put our country on the international track.
Try your best.
Yu Xiangnian's words were like a bell being struck, making Cheng Jingmo's heart tremble. These words kept echoing in his ears.
He knew that Yu Xiangnian had seen the world, but he didn't expect Yu Xiangnian to be so broad-minded, pretending to be the country and the people!
The pearl that he looked up to was shining brightly!
Cheng Jingmo was also inspired by Yu Xiangnian, and his blood boiled all over.
"You are right, I also want to dedicate my life to the prosperity of the country! My biggest shortcoming now is cultural knowledge. I must insist on learning every day."
Yu Xiangnian said happily: "Yes! In the future, the army will focus on high technology and informatization. Cheng Jingmo, you must work hard to be a good leader!"
The flickering lights illuminated the direction in which the two men were fighting.
Inside and outside the bullpen, accompanied by the sound of water, two hearts became one, imagining the future together.
After a tiring day, Cheng Jingmo felt particularly powerful when taking a shower and washing clothes.
When sleeping, Cheng Jingmo held Xiang Nian in his arms.
"Nian Nian, I used to be very confused sometimes. I didn't know what I could do after I left the army. I didn't want to come back here to live such a life. So, I worked hard to stay in the army."
"Today you gave me a new understanding of protecting my family and my country, and I have a deeper understanding of staying in the army! The most correct thing I did in my life was to join the army and become a soldier. Then, I was lucky enough to marry you!"
