Chapter 43: Twenty Years of Wish (1/2)



In the guest house room.

Wang Hongjie took a deep breath and took out the steaming hot envelope from his arms.

He rubbed his hands clean on his clothes and then carefully poured out the money.

"Ten dollars..."

"twenty……"

“…”

"one hundred……"

“…”

"two hundred!"

As Wang Hongjie counted to the end, his fingers began to tremble.

"Really... there are really two hundred yuan?!" Wang Hongjie looked at Su Miaomiao beside him with red eyes, his voice choked with sobs.

"Yes, two hundred yuan." Su Miaomiao seemed to be infected by Wang Hongjie's emotions for some reason, and her chest felt a little stuffy.

"This is two hundred yuan. With this money, we can buy food for the villagers for the winter, and everyone will not starve to death." Wang Hongjie clenched the stack of big unity notes in his hand with trembling hands.

"Yes, no one will suffer from hunger and cold this winter." Su Miaomiao nodded.

Wang Hongjie looked at the money and suddenly knelt down in front of Su Miaomiao.

Shan Yazi beside him also knelt down quickly.

"Uncle Wang, what are you doing? Get up quickly." Su Miaomiao never expected Wang Hongjie to do this, and she quickly squatted down and tried to help him up.

Wang Hongjie pushed Su Miaomiao away and looked at her with red eyes.

"Miao girl, you have been in our village for less than two months, so you may not know the situation in our village."

"But I have been the village chief of Shimatou Village for 20 years. During these 20 years, I have been thinking every day about how to ensure that the villagers have enough food and clothing."

"But I tried hard for 20 years but still couldn't fulfill this wish. But you, you completed what I couldn't accomplish in my lifetime in just one month."

"Miao girl, I am an old farmer who makes a living from the soil. I can't say anything nice, I just hope you will accept my greeting." Wang Hongjie said as he was about to kowtow.

Su Miaomiao was about to speak when Wang Hongjie interrupted her again.

"This is not only for myself, but also for the villagers of Shimatou Village!"

Su Miaomiao looked at Wang Hongjie with tears in his eyes, and didn't know what to do for a moment. Finally, she just slowly withdrew her hand under his pleading gaze.

Wang Hongjie kowtowed to Su Miaomiao, and Shan Yazi also banged his head with a loud bang.

"Alright, alright, get up quickly. If you keep kneeling like this, it won't be thanking me but shortening my lifespan." After receiving this kowtow, Su Miaomiao hurriedly helped the man up.

“…”

When Wang Hongjie and Shan Yazi left Su Miaomiao's room, both of them had red eyes.

Su Miaomiao, who was left alone in the room, thought about how Wang Hongjie kowtowed to her and what he said to her, and suddenly she had the urge to do something for this village and this era.

She grew up under strict organization and training.

For people like them, emotions are the last thing they should have.

She wouldn't even frown even if an insignificant person died in front of her.

But this era is not the era she lives in.

As soon as she came here, she met the kind-hearted butcher Su.

He raised her like a precious jewel until she was 18 years old.

Later, I met the Huo family again.

It seemed that after receiving a lot of love, her long-cold heart slowly grew flesh and blood.
