Shen Anning looked at the package delivered by the postman and slapped her forehead. This was already the eighth one this year. That's right, before the year 75 came, she had already received the eighth package from Cao Jingheng.
After calming down, he opened the bundle and found two cans of malted milk, two boxes of candy, a thick light beige jacket with a zipper, and the usual ten Great Unity notes and a letter.
"An Ning, Zhan Xinjia, I was originally thinking of taking a leave to visit you in the Northeast after the New Year, but due to my duties, I'm not sure when I'll be back. I've been in the army for many years and have saved quite a bit, so please don't feel pressured. I exchanged cloth coupons with my comrades, and when I was taking a break, I saw a coat that suited you very well. I'm not very good at choosing, so please don't be disgusted. I have a thought in mind that I'd like to share with you if I return successfully after this mission. I've also sent you my deposit via post, so please accept it."
Shen Anning looked at the letter, her ears turning red. After all, she had lived two lives. Ever since Cao Jingheng sent her a letter last year, she more or less knew what he meant. But today, he brought it up in a letter, which still made the "eighteen-year-old" her a little shy.
What Shen Anning didn't know was that Cao Jingheng's mission this time was unprecedentedly difficult. Just like in his previous life, he was going to the border with a small team. Since the founding of New China, imperialism has never given up its heart and has attempted to provoke countries bordering our country to wage war against us. Under this situation, human trafficking, drug trafficking, and assassinations on the border have caused great pressure on our country.
To be honest, he didn't know how long this trip would take, but with the hint in his dream, he could avoid many problems.
On the day Shen Anning went to work at the commune hospital, she did not have lunch with Liu Jiaman at noon. She took the time to go to the post office. When the staff learned that she was there to collect the remittance slip, they were stunned.
“Comrade, we need to confirm with you, is your name really Shen Anning?”
"Yes, I am Shen Anning, is there any problem?" Shen Anning took out his identity card. He didn't have an ID card yet, just a piece of paper with an official seal.
The staff looked at the ID card and looked at Shen Anning with a jealous and envious expression, which made Shen Anning a little confused. Is there something dirty on her face? The way these people looked at her was really a bit strange.
"Well, comrade, there is no problem with you. Do you have your passbook with you? This amount of money is really too much. I suggest you keep it for safety." Although the post office staff was a little jealous, they were still very responsible and had a strong sense of responsibility.
Shen Anning thought for a moment and nodded, "Comrade, thank you. I brought my passbook with me today. Please help me deposit it directly."
"Okay, here's the remittance slip. Sign it first, and then I'll help you with the paperwork."
Taking the remittance slip, Shen Anning glanced at it, and the hand holding the pen paused. Thirty thousand! Thirty thousand! A full thirty thousand yuan!
Shen Anning didn't know what to say anymore. Cao Jingheng, that bastard, had sent her almost five or six thousand yuan in package envelopes over the past few years. Even if he had been in the army for seven or eight years and reached the rank of regimental commander, he wouldn't have that much money.
"Comrade, please deposit the money directly into this passbook. Thank you."
Shen Anning deeply regretted not wearing a mask when she came here today. Fortunately, there were almost no people at noon, and it was probably only these few staff members who knew that she had received a huge sum of money.
"Comrade, here's your passbook. Please keep it safe."
Shen Anning took the passbook, took a look at it, and saw more than 30,500 yuan. She smiled at the young lady at the counter and said, "Hey, thank you, comrade."
As she walked out, Ana Shen could hear the voices of several employees chatting behind her.
"My God, this girl is so rich."
"Hey, hey, hey, didn't you see that the deposit slip was remitted from the military district? This must be something serious."
"No way, is this true? It looks like this isn't a pension for the sacrifices of my family."
"That's definitely not the case. How could the pension be sent via remittance? And at what level can someone get so much? I guess she has a strong background and her family is powerful..."
. . . . . .
Even until he got on the bicycle, Shen An Ning still had a feeling of unreality. Thirty thousand, this is not three hundred or three thousand. You have to know that the ten thousand yuan households only appeared after the reform and opening up in the 1980s. The current thirty thousand yuan, based on the monthly salary of an ordinary worker of 20-50 yuan, would mean that one would have to work hard for a lifetime without eating or drinking to save thirty thousand yuan.
Shen Anning felt happy but also very angry. What was wrong with this man Cao Jingheng? They hadn't confirmed their relationship yet, but he gave her all his wealth. What did he mean by that? "It's so annoying!"
After get off work in the evening, because it was still early, Shen Anning and Liu Jiaman went to the state-owned restaurant specifically to take a look. At this time, river fish are the most plump and delicious. The chef of the state-owned restaurant is very good at making braised fish pieces. Each of them spent 80 cents to order one, ready to take it back and eat with their family.
I got home early, Shen Anyu and Shen Anxuan had not returned yet. Xixi also went to school and play with her aunt today. I looked at the time and there was still plenty of time.
First, I went to the kitchen to boil a pot of hot water and cooked the meal directly in the space. I made a serving of braised beef with soy sauce and a serving of stir-fried vegetables with mushrooms, plus the fish pieces bought from the restaurant, and boiled half a pot of seaweed, shrimp skin and egg drop soup. The staple food was steamed buns made with two-grain flour. The cornmeal was ground by Shen An Ning with the core removed, and it was very fine, so it didn't make my throat ache at all when I ate it.
Lying in bed at night, Shen Anning carefully counted the money in her hand. The 30,000 yuan given by Cao Jingheng must not be touched. The relationship between the two has not even started yet, so this passbook will be kept for him temporarily.
The money she had taken from home before, including the money given by her eldest brother and sister-in-law after she came to the Northeast, the money sent by her uncle and aunt, the allowance from her second brother, and her meager salary, all added up to a small amount of 40,000. Looking at the several passbooks and a pile of banknotes in the study in the space building, Shen An Ning moved happily several times and almost woke up little Xixi.
It turns out that no one doesn’t love the RMB.
In his previous life, Shen An Ning had no desires or ambitions since his family members left one by one. In this life, Shen An Ning had no idea of saving all living beings. His eldest brother was going to do scientific research in the future, and his second and younger brothers would stay in the army for the rest of their lives. There was also his father's hobby of archaeology and collecting antiques. If you calculate carefully, it all cost money.
Shen Anning, who had originally planned to apply for Traditional Chinese Medicine and Pharmacology after the college entrance examination was resumed, was a little hesitant. Should she change her mind?
After all, it is definitely better to accumulate capital as early as possible. If you wait until others have occupied the market and then want to get a piece of the pie, it will be too difficult.
"Forget it, there are still two years left, we'll talk about it then."
Turning over and holding her little niece, smelling the fragrance of the little girl, Shen An Ning quickly calmed down. Life without having to go to work is really a happy life!
