Chapter 241 Women Hold Up Half the Sky
"As long as everyone is alright."
Zhang Xiaoqin's focus was different. She came over and whispered like a thief, "Dad, do you have a red envelope?"
“Only red eggs.”
As he spoke, he opened the medicine box and took out eight red eggs. "Two for each of you, and the remaining two are for my wife."
He is the most fair person and never shows partiality to anyone.
This is a wedding egg, and Yi was reluctant to refuse.
Zhang Xiaoqin and Qiao Jun also smiled happily, and Zhang Xiaoqin was even more curious about the gender of the baby.
"Little girl."
Speaking of the baby, Uncle Yaozi's expression softened. "She is a very pretty little girl, with clean and thick hair."
"Is the baby's father particularly unhappy?"
Qiao Jun blurted out, and Uncle Yaozi was stunned for a moment, "Why are you unhappy?"
The birth of a new life is a happy event in any family, and no red eggs will be given if the family is not happy.
"Not a son."
In one sentence, the problem is pointed out.
Uncle Yaozi was silent for two seconds, "Actually, in our place, having a boy or a girl is a happy event."
"Not favoring boys over girls?"
“It used to be there, but it’s gone now.”
“Why has there been such a big change?”
“Because of the Anti-Japanese United Army.”
People are almost done fighting, so gender doesn’t matter that much.
What men can do, women can do too.
Women can do what men cannot do.
Who says women are inferior to men? The teacher even said that women hold up half the sky.
Looking up at Qiao Jun, he sternly warned, "Just say this to your family, but don't tell anyone else."
Qiao Jun was frightened by his serious expression, and nodded quickly, then turned around and asked curiously what the Anti-Japanese United Army was.
Uncle Yaozi was so angry that he almost exploded. He picked up a feather duster and hit him, asking, "You don't know about the Anti-Japanese United Army? How could you not know about the Anti-Japanese United Army?"
Qiao Jun was beaten so hard that he cried out in pain. He wanted to hide but didn't dare to, and he didn't dare to beg for mercy. Fortunately, Yi Chichi came to save him.
"Uncle, calm down. It's normal that they don't know."
Not to mention that Qiao Jun and the others didn't know, even with the development of information in later generations, there were still many people who didn't know enough about the Anti-Japanese United Army, and some had never even heard of it.
Information does not spread as fast in this era as it does in later generations, and Qiao Jun and his companions are genuine southerners. If they had not been so bold as to sneak out this time, they would not even have the chance to leave Yangcheng.
Given the limited information available, this result is not surprising.
After all, war is too far away from their lives.
"them……"
Uncle Yaozi was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. That was the Anti-Japanese United Army. How could the young people nowadays not even know about it?
"Don't be angry, I'll give them some scientific knowledge. I'll give them some scientific knowledge right away."
Afraid of getting them angry, Yi Chichi quickly comforted them and dragged them to the side to teach them the history of the Anti-Japanese United Army.
It was a fierce indoctrination that made the two of them burst into tears.
“…Wow, that’s too miserable…”
"Wow, so respectable. More respectable and admirable than my father and the others. Wow..."
The two wiped their tears and choked up as they expressed their true inner thoughts. Yi Chichi took out a handkerchief and handed it to them, motioning them to wipe their tears, but not to wipe them on their sleeves, which was really dirty.
"Remember this: the Anti-Japanese Alliance will continue from now on, and our descendants will not be without it."
"I will definitely remember that."
It’s hard to forget. Before coming here, they had no idea there was such a team on the black soil.
After coming...
“Is there a martyrs’ park?”
Qiao Jun sniffed and asked Uncle Yaozi with red eyes.
He was silent for two seconds, then nodded, "Yes."
"Can I go and have a look?"
"I'll take you there when the time comes to pay the public taxes."
Qiao Jun and Zhang Xiaoqin exchanged glances and said in unison, "Dad, you must keep your word."
"I can still deceive you two naughty kids."
Uncle Yaozi said angrily, disgusted with their faces covered with snot and tears, "Go wash your face and cook."
It’s getting late, time for dinner.
"good."
The two of them went to the backyard one after the other. Uncle Yaozi looked at Yi Chichi again, "Have you prepared all the medicine?"
"It's done."
"Let me take a look."
Just wait and see, there will be no problem for sure.
There was indeed nothing wrong, but Uncle Yaozi noticed that some of the medicine powder did not come from her hand.
"Did Xiaoqin or Qiao Jun grind it?"
"Xiaoqin."
Uncle Yaozi said "Oh", this guy has no talent for medicine, even worse than Chi Chi, at best he can only be an assistant.
But he wasn't much better.
So, the eldest brother won’t talk about the second brother.
"Okay, there's nothing for you to do now, go home."
Yi Chichi said "oh", ran to the medicine cabinet, took out the packed things, and said goodbye and left.
When I left the house, I remembered that I had forgotten something, so I went back.
"Uncle, will my aunt come home today?"
"Not today, but I'll be back tomorrow afternoon."
At this point, Uncle Yaozi asked her curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
"have."
She told him that Zhou Qiuyu and his friends were in urgent need of oil and water and wanted to buy some meat. Uncle Yaozi sighed and said, "Those kids are pitiful. Wait, I'll go get them some meat."
"How much do you have at home?"
"Yes, your aunt asked someone to buy a few pounds of meat. We don't have any extra, so half a pound or one pound will do."
"Let me see."
"Just watch."
So the two of them went to the well in the backyard.
Yi Chichi watched him shake the small wooden barrel hanging in the well and found that there was not only meat but also two carps in it.
Uncle Yaozi took out a carp and gave it to her. "Take this back and ask your mother to cook it for you."
"Thank you, uncle."
Yi Chichi didn't hesitate to take the fish and put it in a small basket.
Uncle Yaozi smiled and said, "Why are you being polite? You haven't forgotten me and your aunt when you have something good."
Feelings are mutual, and no one is stupid enough to only think about leaving without thinking about coming in.
You can tolerate it once or twice, but if it happens too many times, unless you are a saint, even the best relationship will end.
He was reluctant to give the fish to others, but he was willing to give it to Yi Chichi.
"Let me make it clear first, you have to pay for the meat."
"Qiu Yu and the others are willing to pay and provide tickets."
Uncle Yaozi paused. Where did these kids get the tickets? But it didn't matter. "Forget about the tickets. Just give me the money."
He can do it, but Zhou Qiuyu and the others can't.
Knowing that the meat sent by Yi Chichi was distributed by Uncle Yaozi, Bai Chen quickly went back to the house and took out one dollar and two cents and two taels of meat tickets, "Chichi, please take this to Uncle Yaozi."
"Uncle said he doesn't need a ticket."
"No, we need tickets if we go buy them ourselves."
That's true. Just as Yi Chichi was about to speak, he added, "You must take this ticket for Uncle Yaozi, otherwise you will send the meat back."
Yi Chichi, ...it's impossible to send it back.
So, she reached out to take the money and ticket, "Next time I go to the commune, I'll see if I can buy some more for you."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Yi Chichi raised his eyes and glanced at him, "When did you learn to be so polite?"
"We are educated and knowledgeable young people, unlike some people."
Wu Yongfei gave a quick response, and the implications and resentment in his words were very obvious.
