In 2023, swimmer Jiang Jiaojiao died saving a drowning child during a seaside team-building activity.
In 1964, Lin Baoni saved a drowning soldier but died from exhaustion in the sea.
Ji...
"Okay, Bonnie."
None of the children on the island are lazy; they are all very capable and efficient in doing what they are supposed to do.
"Han Weidong, why don't you guys move here? I heard that more educated youth will be coming after the New Year, and there will be more and more people in your educated youth settlement. If you move here, you can take care of our property. Although it's not much, even a broken home is worth a fortune."
"We were just saying we wanted to apply to move here. Our own rations will be stored separately from the team's, one thing at a time, we'll keep that in mind."
Han Weidong and his three companions have no shortage of food and drink, and it will be more convenient for them to move here.
"Okay, I'm free this afternoon, let them help you move. I won't have time starting tomorrow."
"Sister Bonnie, I also want to move in here."
Lin Hai was tempted when he heard Han Weidong and the others talking about it. He had a place in his hometown, but it wasn't as convenient as this.
"Then how will you eat?"
"I eat at home for breakfast and dinner, and I eat with everyone for lunch."
Bonnie thought that since this place wasn't a youth settlement, it would be difficult to handle things if only Han Weidong and a few others lived there. It would be fine if Lin Hai moved in.
"Then you and your third grandfather have agreed that you will be in charge of communicating with the team from now on. You and Han Weidong should study hard, especially in terms of cultural knowledge."
"Yes, sir!"
Lin Hai ran back to talk to his grandfather. He's just a kid; he has no self-control.
“Lin Hai will be living with you. If anything happens, have him communicate with the team members more often; it will be more convenient that way. Also, since you are all high school graduates, you can give them some extra education when you have time. Most of them didn't even finish elementary school.”
"Understood, don't worry, Six-Nine Mother."
Han Weidong actually admired Liu Jiu Niang quite a bit. She didn't get any real benefits from doing these things; she just wanted to help some people.
"Han Weidong, I want to talk to you about something. Just call me Sister Baoni, don't keep calling me 'Sixth Sister,' it makes me sound like a middle-aged woman."
"Ha ha……"
Li Gang almost burst out laughing; he knew that Brother Han was doing it on purpose.
"Ahem... I understand, Bonnie."
At noon, a big pot of seafood stew was served, along with flatbread and steamed cornbread. A group of teenagers ate it all up, leaving not a drop of soup.
Bonnie was extremely worried. How much food would these boys need? No, she had to think of a way. They ate way too much; she couldn't afford to feed them. Her family's meager food reserves wouldn't last long.
