"Very good, that's it."
"Huh? This note?"
Mrs. Liu took out a piece of paper that had fallen to the side and handed it to Captain Liu.
After taking a look, Captain Liu understood.
"It's Yunyang. He made an agreement with his friend. He'll give his friend some money every month, and his friend will send some food to the kids in Thirteen's group. After we weigh yours, I'll take the rest to them."
They quickly divided everything up, giving each family a little extra, and the weights on the scales were all very high, ensuring that no one was at a disadvantage.
One team member remarked, "This business is really good; they're exceptionally fair."
"You're right! Not only is the quality good, but the scale is also so accurate."
If one family gives a few extra ounces, how could it not be good?
Just a few ounces of flour is enough for a family to have a meal.
Mixing in some whole grains makes the food taste pretty good.
Captain Liu collected the remaining grain and then carried it to the innermost courtyard, which had three sections. He knocked on the door, and when Thirteen and the others opened it, they all greeted Captain Liu respectfully, "Captain Liu."
Captain Liu knew exactly what they were thinking, but he still corrected them, saying, "This yard was rented to you by Uncle Gu. The grain I have was something your Uncle Gu traded with a friend. I bring you some every month."
Thirteen gritted his teeth; deep down he knew that Uncle Gu was a very good person.
It's a bit of a pity that Uncle Gu doesn't work in the capital; he has to go back to Guangdong Province.
But they all remembered Uncle Gu's kindness to them.
Thirteen turned her head and said, "Do you remember Brother Yunyang whom I told you about before? Remember him from now on. We are able to live together and have food to eat because Brother Yunyang is good to us."
"We understand, we all remember Brother Yunyang."
A group of children shouted.
Only after experiencing such hardship did they understand the importance of unity and how precious such good days are.
When they saw that what Captain Liu brought were all refined grains, even the cornmeal was no different from refined grains.
The thirteen or so people were also choked up.
He also swore that Brother Yunyang had said no one was allowed in the backyard, and that their purpose in living here was to watch over the backyard for others and prevent any problems from arising.
He vowed to keep a close watch.
Don't let others into the backyard.
Captain Liu hesitated for a moment and said, "Take good care of yourselves. By the way, Thirteen, you need to register your household registration. What about the surname?"
Thirteen still insists on calling herself Thirteen, and everyone's used to it.
But the surname can't be 10, right?
As if he had been prepared for this, Thirteen said as soon as Captain Liu spoke, "We want to take the surname Gu, just like Brother Yunyang, is that okay?"
The other children nodded as well.
Although Brother Yunyang is not here, his help to them is real and tangible.
They all wanted to share the same surname as Brother Yunyang, Gu.
Captain Liu really wanted to say that it doesn't matter what your surname is.
However, they were grateful to Gu Yunyang and were all good kids.
Although Gu Yunyang might not care, he still nodded: "Why not?"
Then I'll get your household registration sorted out for you all later. Oh, and in September, I'll also be sending some of you eight-year-olds to school.
You can't refuse this. Your brother Yunyang also left a message: don't think about going out to make money. You must study, study hard, and contribute to the country in the future.
If you can finish junior high school and get into a vocational school, you'll all be guaranteed jobs. Don't worry about tuition; your brother Yunyang will send money every month, and our team will also support you.”
