In her later life, Yao Tongjia was a wealthy girl with many toys, including handguns. After hearing Ruan Shengpeng's explanation of the key points, she quickly got the hang of it!
Yao Yanxin was a bit timid; her hand trembled even before she raised the gun. Ruan Shengpeng was afraid that the bullet might hit him.
He quickly told Yao Tongjia to go to the other end to practice shooting, while he himself stood at the other end, holding Yao Yanxin's hand and teaching her step by step.
Yao Tongjia fired shot after shot, and her accuracy was quite high. She hit the bullseye three out of five shots, and the other two shots didn't go too far off.
She loaded the bullets herself and continued practicing. What she wasn't used to was that the sound was too loud. She even regretted that she should have asked Xiao Gengwu to make her a silencer.
This is an old, worn-out ear; her ears are ringing. Turning her head, she saw Ruan Shengpeng covering his mother's ears with his hands. This display of affection is really too much for her to handle!
After practicing for an unknown amount of time, until her hands were sore, Yao Tongjia stopped and looked at her parents. Ruan Shengpeng, holding a pistol, walked over with Yao Yanxin.
He looked at Yao Tongjia's target and said, "It looks good. Just keep shooting like this from today and you'll be fine. Your mother will need to practice one more time next time!"
Yao Tongjia packed her things: "Let's go down now, it's getting dark!"
When the three of them came down, they saw two people walking with a limp in the distance. Upon closer inspection, they realized that they were the two idiots!
Yao Tongjia laughed: "What's wrong? Too tired to walk?!"
Yao Tongxu suddenly became weak and listless: "Why don't you go train and see what it's like? See if Brother Xiao needs to carry you back!"
"What do you need me to do?" Everyone turned around and saw that it was Xiao Gengwu who had arrived.
"Brother Xiao, you're up so early too? Is the car all assembled?"
"How could it be so fast? I was teaching them today, and we only just finished assembling one. There's another one they can assemble themselves tomorrow. I'll go over and check it at noon!"
"Brother Xiao, you've been promoted to coach? You're doing all the talking today, no more lifting a finger?"
"You know that too?"
"I can tell just by looking at your hands. Last time you assembled the car, your hands were so dirty that it took you a long time to wash them clean. But now, your hands aren't dirty at all!"
"Ah Xu, your observation and analytical skills have improved!"
"That's a must. Everyone says that if you follow outstanding people, you'll become outstanding yourself. If I don't improve by following someone as outstanding as Brother Xiao every day, I'd be a fool!"
These words made everyone laugh. Looking at these children, Ruan Shengpeng's heart softened completely. What was the point of all the hard work he had put into his missions?
It's all for the sake of providing these children with a stable environment, so they can laugh when they want to laugh and shout when they want to shout. No matter how hard he works, it's all worth it!
Back home, some boiled water, some wrote, some read, and some cooked. Seeing that everyone was tired, Xiao Gengwu cooked the meal by himself.
Xiao Gengwu's thoughtfulness made Ruan Shengpeng approve of him even more. A thoughtful man will definitely make his wife happier!
After dinner, Ruan Shengpeng quickly boiled some more hot water, grabbed a towel, and brought it to Yao Tongxu. Yao Tongxu, still confused, asked, "Dad, what are you doing?"
The water was almost boiling hot. Ruan Shengpeng took out a towel, wrung it out while it was still hot, and applied it to Yao Tongxu's feet. Yao Tongxu jumped up because of the heat.
"Dad, are you trying to scald me to death?" Ruan Shengpeng pressed him down: "If you don't want to be unable to get out of bed tomorrow, then scald me!"
He Jiale also took a towel, soaked it, and was about to wring it out himself when Ruan Shengpeng quickly took the towel away: "I have thick skin, I'll do it. Your hands are too thin, you definitely can't stand this heat!"
He Jiale was touched: "Thank you, Uncle!"
Ruan Shengpeng understood his feelings: "Your parents are too busy. They are people who do great things. You have to understand them!"
He Jiale nodded: "My sister often tells me that now my brother-in-law has gone off to do great things, and I'm the only one in the family who hasn't done anything great."
"You're all learning gun manufacturing now, and at the very least, you'll become research talents in the future. How can you say you can't do great things? As long as you achieve something in your field, you're someone who can do great things!"
He Jiale, thinking that he had also created a new type of pistol, was filled with fighting spirit: "Brother Xiao, when are we going to make that material?"
"Your sister applied for it for us. Let's see when she tells us. Once we get a response, we'll start making it!"
While applying ointment to Yao Tongxu and He Jiale's hands and feet, Ruan Shengpeng asked, "Is it the bulletproof material? Can it be made harder? That way it can absorb the force of the bullet."
"I've been reading books on materials science lately. I can try adding a few different materials and see what the result is!"
"How about I apply here and you do the experiments here?" Ruan Shengpeng suggested. If the three children completed the experiment here, it could be considered a result of the military region's efforts.
More importantly, if the three children are doing experiments here, Tongtong won't go back to school alone. If she likes, she can go to the infirmary to help out.
Xiao Gengwu replied nonchalantly, "It's alright. Let's see what Sister Jiayin says. She'll send over the materials I need. We just need a place to experiment!"
The materials used this time are more suitable for military camps and are not very relevant to the gun factory; they can complete the work here as well.
As if on cue, He Jiayin and Jun Nanzhu each carried in a box. Xiao Gengwu stood up and asked, "Is there more?"
He Jiayin waved her hand: "You can sit here. I will bring you the materials you need, but it would be best if these materials were completed here in the military region."
"Don't tell anyone outside for now. How about I leave Uncle Ruan's safety to you?"
"It's like a pillow being delivered to your door when you're sleepy, what could be worse?" Ruan Shengpeng immediately nodded: "Of course, I was just talking about it and you came!"
He Jiayin saw He Jiale and Yao Tongxu applying foot compresses and asked with some concern, "What's wrong?"
He Jiale shook his head: "Ah Xu and I trained with the new recruits. It's been a long time since we've had such high-intensity training. Uncle Ruan was worried that our feet would hurt tomorrow, so he gave us hot water to apply to our feet."
He Jiale looked at Ruan Shengpeng gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Ruan!"
Then, to ease He Jiale's mind, she asked, "Are you going to training tomorrow?"
"Go ahead, the recruit training will be over in a week. We'll be training together with them these next few days. Brother Xiao, can you manage all this on your own these next few days?"
Xiao Gengwu nodded: "It's alright, you guys go train. I still need to finalize the plan. For now, I can manage on my own. Besides, I need to check on the car assembly tomorrow!"
