The donkey cart arrived at the compound a few hours later.
Chu Yue got out of the car and said, "Da Hu, Xiao Hua, you guys should go back quickly. Be careful on the road. If you have any problems, you can find me at the grocery store in the city. If I'm not here, find a girl named Ye Zhaodi in the store and ask her to pass on the message to me."
"Okay, Doctor Xiao Chu."
"Goodbye, Sister Xiaochu."
The three of them waved goodbye for the time being, and Chu Yue walked into the majestic military compound.
This was the first time for Zhao Dahu and Zhao Xiaohua to come to this place. If it weren’t for Chu Yue, they might never have gone near the military area in their entire lives.
The brother and sister looked up at the houses in the compound. They were all built with red bricks and cement. They looked beautiful and solid, unlike the old houses made of yellow mud and wood in their village. In addition, the military compound had electricity, so they could use electric lights at night.
Only the village commune and the village chief’s home have electricity in the village. Most villagers still use kerosene lamps and cannot even afford flashlights.
Looking at such a good environment, it would be a lie for the brother and sister to say they were not envious.
Zhao Xiaohua patted Zhao Dahu on the shoulder and said, "Brother, if we work hard together, we can also live in such a beautiful big house in the future."
Although the brother and sister encountered misfortunes in their lives, neither of them gave up hope. After Chu Yue's advice, they left with beautiful expectations for the future.
…
In the compound.
Chu Yue's pace to go home became more and more hurried, with full of anticipation, which was a rare emotion for her.
She calculated the days. This time she was on a mission as a "military doctor". Due to frequent accidents, she was delayed for a long time, a total of nine days of work.
It lasted longer than the previous chicken plague accident.
To put it in a broader sense, it’s nearly half a month.
Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao have not been separated for such a long time. Although she doesn't have to worry about his eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, she is still concerned about him.
Today happens to be Sunday and the school is closed. According to Lu Yuanbao's personality, he would not sneak out to play and must be staying at home.
"Yuanbao, I'm back!"
Chu Yue shouted loudly, pushed open the gate, and looked into the yard with bright eyes.
The first thing she saw was Lu Yuanbao.
Lu Yuanbao was squatting in the yard, and there was a larger figure beside him, it was Chen Dazhuang.
The two men huddled close together. Next to them was the chicken coop with the chicks they had raised together, and they could hear the chirping sounds coming from it.
As soon as Lu Yuanbao heard Chu Yue's shout, he immediately turned around. His dark eyes instantly lit up. He stared at Chu Yue who suddenly appeared with wide eyes in surprise, and then all the surprise was replaced by joy.
He immediately stood up and shouted to one side, "Mom——"
Chu Yue was not the only one he was worried about. Lu Yuanbao also missed Chu Yue madly, but as a child he kept his thoughts to himself and didn't know how to express them.
Lu Yuanbao rushed towards Chu Yue and threw himself into her arms, revealing his difficult emotions.
Chu Yue smiled, unable to suppress the smile on her lips. She leaned over and touched the back of Lu Yuanbao's head. After not seeing him for a while, she found that Lu Yuanbao's hair had grown longer. It was no longer the prickly waxberry hair, but had become soft.
"Yuanbao, how are you? Is everything okay at home while I'm away?"
Lu Yuanbao buried his head in Chu Yue's arms, rubbing her gently, and was too attached to her to get up.
He closed his eyes tightly, and only he knew that the corners of his eyes were sore and hot, and something wet was about to flow out, but he couldn't cry, he was happy!
Very happy!
After Lu Yuanbao had rubbed against Chu Yue enough, he looked up at Chu Yue, with the corners of his mouth raised high, revealing a slightly childish smile.
"Okay, everything is fine. Dad has taken good care of me."
"So good!"
Chu Yue touched the back of Lu Yuanbao's head randomly as if he was rewarding her, as if she was stroking a cute cat, but Lu Yuanbao was not a cat, he was a little lion.
Chen Dazhuang stood up and walked over. When he saw Chu Yue, he was even happier than Lu Yuanbao, and he smiled so hard that his teeth were almost showing.
"Aunt Chu, you're finally back! Let me tell you, there was an exam at school, and Yuanbao got first place, that's amazing! Rourou only got 95 points, but Yuanbao got 100 points."
"So amazing~"
Chu Yue smiled with her eyes curved as she looked at Lu Yuanbao. Lu Yuanbao was not a child who liked to brag, but under Chu Yue's gaze, he nodded and said "hmm" heavily.
The little child held his head high, eager to let Chu Yue see his pride.
Chu Yue praised, "My Yuanbao is amazing! I'll cook a few more dishes tonight to celebrate Yuanbao's perfect score in the exam."
Lu Yuanbao smiled even more happily.
Chen Dazhuang licked his lips, feeling so envious.
But then again…
Chu Yue looked at Chen Dazhuang, "Yuan Bao scored 100 points, Tan Rourou scored 95 points, and what about you? Dazhuang, how many points did you get?"
Chen Dazhuang, who had been happy originally, now felt uncomfortable all over. He scratched his hair and then his butt. How could he say that he only got 18 points in front of such a beautiful aunt?
So embarrassing!
It's more embarrassing than being seen naked!
Chen Dazhuang blushed and said quickly, "I'll go home and tell my mom that Aunt Chu is back. My mom has been waiting for you to come back! Aunt Chu, I'm leaving first!"
After Chen Dazhuang finished speaking, he ran away without even turning back to say a word to Lu Yuanbao.
Chu Yue found it really interesting to see Chen Dazhuang leaving happily.
Lu Yuanbao pulled Chu Yue's hand, "Mom."
"Hmm?" Chu Yue lowered her head, her eyes looking at him tenderly, "What's wrong?"
Lu Yuanbao said with excitement, "The little chicken is out."
Lu Yuanbao pulled Chu Yue towards the chicken coop in the corner of the yard, where the chicks that had grown into hens lived. There were a few eggs hidden under its yellow feathers, and it had been hatching the chicks for a long time.
Before Chu Yue left, she left a message for Lu Yuanbao, saying that when she came back, they would watch the birth of the chick together.
I originally thought that the task would be completed in a few days, but who knew it would take a full nine days.
The chick in the chicken shell could no longer stay there, so it pecked open the shell with its tiny beak and struggled out.
There are six eggs in the chicken coop, and three chicks have already hatched. [Photo]
Just now, Lu Yuanbao and Chen Dazhuang got together to watch Xiaoxiao break out of the shell.
Newly born chicks are very small and weak. They cannot even stand up. Half of their bodies are exposed outside the shell and the other half remains inside the shell. They can only make faint chirping sounds.
Its feathers were wet and not dry yet, all sticking to its body, and it looked nothing like the cute furry feathers it will have when it grows up.
To be honest, it's a bit ugly.
Whether it is a human child or a chick, it is like this when it is born. This is the beginning of a new life. After growing vigorously, it will become a beautiful child.
Chu Yue had just experienced several funerals and watched the passing of life. Now, as she watched the birth of a little chick, her previous depressed mood was swept away. She felt the beauty of life again and was filled with infinite hope.
