The phone call Xiao Dan received before lunch was from the commune where Zhoujiacun is located.
He asked his comrade-in-arms Dong Zhongsheng to investigate the Zhou family. Dong Zhongsheng did the work himself and unexpectedly met Tang Yingli, who was being exonerated and preparing to return to the city, when he went down to the commune.
When the two old acquaintances met, they inevitably chatted for a while. As they talked, Dong Zhongsheng brought up the purpose of going to the commune.
Upon hearing the name Zhou Shi, Tang Yingli's dejected face instantly burst forth with intense vitality.
Betrayed by his family and tormented for years, he had long harbored the will to die.
All the happiness I've had over the years comes from that innocent little girl.
After spending several years together, he has come to regard the little girl as family.
To his delight, the little girl also had a passion for scientific research.
Thinking he would never return to the city, he taught her all the experience he had accumulated throughout his life.
The little girl is very quick to understand. She can grasp many concepts as soon as they are explained and can apply them to other situations.
Some tricky problems and complex patterns can be mastered without a teacher after studying them a few times.
He felt that the little girl was simply born for scientific research.
He knew that the Zhou family treated her badly and that she had endless chores to do.
Every time the little girl came to see him, she was covered in injuries.
It was precisely because of this that her old companions, who lived in the cowshed together, discovered that she not only had an interest in scientific research but also a talent for studying medicine when they treated her injuries.
His old friend Tao Yongjiang shared the same pain, both suffering from the betrayal of their families.
I thought my medical skills would have no successor, but I never expected to be blessed by God.
So he and his old partner put a lot of effort into instilling scientific research and traditional Chinese medicine knowledge into the little girl.
In order to ensure my child's health and strength, besides teaching her, I also urge her to go to the mountains to exercise every day.
She has a good aim, and when she trains her arm strength, she can often hit her prey with stones.
Because they had to work and had little free time, the two taught her to use the prey from the mountains to earn more time to go up the mountain.
Although Zhoujia Village is richer than other villages, it is not a place where people can eat meat often.
In this way, the little girl had more time for training and studying.
Just when he thought the Dragon Kingdom was about to gain a mighty general, in the dead of winter, she fell into the water and woke up as a fool who could only giggle.
I heard that the person became mentally impaired because they fell into the water and burned for several days, and the Zhou family didn't take them to the hospital.
The little girl was stunned and didn't remember coming to find them, so they secretly went to the woodshed where the girl lived to look for her.
As a result, even his old friend, who was considered a master of traditional Chinese medicine, couldn't cure the girl, which made him so angry that he wanted to confront the Zhou family.
A promising young talent was ruined just like that.
Both of them received the news of returning to the city at the same time and wanted to take Zhou Shi with them, but they did not expect that she had already left Zhoujia Village.
No matter how they asked, the Zhou family refused to reveal Zhou Shi's whereabouts.
To be precise, they didn't know either.
Just when we thought all hope was lost, light appeared.
"Zhongsheng, are you telling the truth? Is Shiya really in Xiao Dan's island unit?"
Tang Yingli was extremely excited.
"Yes, Brother Xiao said that Comrade Zhou Shi is now the wife of one of his soldiers."
Upon hearing this news, Tang Yingli, who had no intention of returning to the island, didn't even go home. Instead, he went back to his village to inform his old friends and immediately went to buy a train ticket.
His family members were no longer worth his lingering affections; going back would only cause him distress, so out of sight, out of mind.
The person who came to pick up Tao Yongjiang was two days later, but he didn't care. Together with Tang Yingli, he took the letter of introduction prepared by the captain and headed straight for the island.
Dong Zhongsheng called and subtly relayed Tang Yingli's words to Xiao Dan.
The reason for falling into the water remains to be investigated.
The little girl clearly has the ability to protect herself; it seems someone has resorted to dirty tricks.
"Pengfei, Youliang, look, this is the design Shishi drew. When I saw it, I was utterly shocked. Such a weapon, if..."
The rest is self-explanatory.
"Professor Tang is coming back too. With the master and apprentice reunited, I think with a strong nation, victory is in sight."
Xiao Dan was happy not only because Professor Tang had returned, but also because he had received news about his benefactor, Tao Yongjiang.
After his benefactor got into trouble, he tried everywhere to find out where he had been sent down to.
I will never forget the life-saving grace.
However, they couldn't find him anywhere. Unexpectedly, he was in Zhou Shi's hometown, and he was also the little girl's master.
What a coincidence!
No wonder the little girl is so fast and always likes to climb to higher places. It turns out she's been climbing mountains a lot, and it's a memory ingrained in her subconscious.
It's not very professional, but it's powerful enough.
Since Master Tao, a renowned expert in traditional Chinese medicine, can return to the city, it means that traditional Chinese medicine no longer needs to be concealed.
The method that Shi Yatou used to attract seafood can also be made public, contributing to the army in Shi Yatou's name.
As long as the young girl makes contributions to the army, those gossipy people won't dare to say one thing to her face and another behind her back.
If they're so capable, then they should contribute.
Li Pengfei and Ding Youliang both came from experience with those kinds of things, and even though they weren't experts, they could still see the extraordinary quality in the paintings.
Overjoyed, everyone marveled at Xie's incredible luck in marrying such a precious child.
Several people spent a long time studying the drawings, becoming more and more delighted with each look.
"Xie Lin, all your past military achievements cannot compare to this one. You must protect her well."
It would be a great loss not to recruit such talent into the military.
Xie Lin pursed his lips but did not refute.
All the sacrifices made by soldiers are for the country and its people.
If the weapon Zhou Shi drew could be completed, it would not only save the lives of many comrades, but also provide a powerful deterrent, preventing foreign enemies from invading the border.
This is indeed a huge treasure; he can't compare.
