"What are you talking about! Goudan is still so young. We'll talk about the future later. Eat quickly...it won't taste good if it gets cold." Zeng Wenjuan said with a blank look at Zhao Jianguo.
Even though Zhao Jianguo was scolded by his wife, his face was still filled with a happy smile.
After breakfast, Zeng Wenjuan brought Goudan to find Wang Hui and said, "Sister-in-law, you said before that all the wives of soldiers who follow the troops have a piece of land. So who should I go to?"
"You want to divide your own plot of land, right? I happen to have nothing to do right now, so I'll take you to work together! It's not far, just five minutes away is Commander Lu's wife, Comrade Chen, who is the director of the women's department of our military region. If you have any family conflicts or any problems, you can ask her for help." Wang Hui introduced enthusiastically.
Zeng Wenjuan listened carefully and nodded to show that she understood.
After walking for five minutes, I arrived at the first floor of the family building next door. A woman in her sixties with gray hair was sitting outside wearing cotton shoes. When she saw someone coming, she closed her eyes.
"Yike, why are you here? You seem to have become a lot younger!"
Zeng Wenjuan knew immediately that Comrade Chen had mistaken her for someone else. She smiled and said, "Comrade Chen, I am her daughter Zeng Wenjuan."
After hearing this, Comrade Chen thought for a while and then he remembered: "Oh! It's you, little girl! You look so much like your mother. When you were lost, your mother almost went crazy. Fortunately, she got news about you later, so your parents have been looking for you ever since."
"I really don't know about this, but now everything is moving in a good direction." Zeng Wenjuan didn't know how to answer this question.
Comrade Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, life is getting better and better now. You must have something to ask me today!"
"I'm here to follow the army, and I want a piece of private land. I asked Sister Hui to bring me to you." Zeng Wenjuan spoke very carefully, and she would not say that Comrade Chen knew her, so she forgot about Wang Hui.
Comrade Chen then looked at Wang Hui, who smiled and said, "I remember there is a vacant lot next to your house! You can take this girl there! That piece of land was allocated to their family, and it just so happens that you two know each other."
"Thank you, Comrade Chen. I'll come to see you another day." Zeng Wenjuan finished her business and didn't stay any longer. After all, Zhao Jianguo was alone at home!
After leaving the family building, Wang Hui took Zeng Wenjuan to the vegetable field: "These two rows are your vegetable fields. I planted two fields of peanuts here before, and now I have harvested them. If you want to plant something, just turn the land over."
"Thank you, Sister Hui. I feel a lot more relaxed now that you helped me turn the soil. Thank you!" Zeng Wenjuan spoke with high emotional intelligence.
After all, before the land was distributed, it was wasteland. What they cultivated was theirs, but after it was distributed, if there was no harvest, it would be destroyed. Unless the other party was willing to share with her.
Zeng Wenjuan wanted to turn the soil now, but she had no way to do it. After all, she didn't have any tools to work with, so she had to go home first. As soon as she got home, she saw Chen Yitang coming out of the master bedroom. When she poked her head into the master bedroom, she could see Zhao Jianguo's face covered in cold sweat and pain.
"Dad, you are here to give Brother Jianguo an acupuncture. How is his injury now? I think he is getting better!" Zeng Wenjuan asked Chen Yintang.
Chen Yitang nodded: "The wound is healing well. You can eat more nutritious food to replenish it. For example, you can drink more bone soup."
"Okay, I understand. Goudan has had a big appetite recently, so you can help him too! This child's appetite has increased alarmingly." Zeng Wenjuan took Goudan to Chen Yintang and said.
When Chen Yintang heard that it was his grandson's health problem, he immediately became anxious and directly took Goudan's hand to feel his pulse: "Can't you diagnose this?" After Chen Yintang finished the diagnosis, he asked Zeng Wenjuan with a serious face.
"I didn't dare to look, and it only started in the past two days. Usually, Goudan would be full after eating a bowl of food and some snacks. But this morning he ate a full bowl of food, and I felt something was wrong." Zeng Wenjuan looked at Chen Yintang's expression, a little afraid to hear some bad news.
"Before, Goudan was always hungry, which damaged his spleen and stomach. He has been taking Chinese medicine for some time to recover. His appetite has improved. Goudan is a good kid, but it's a pity..." Chen Yintang shook his head.
Zeng Wenjuan was even more frightened when she saw Chen Yitang's appearance. She said tremblingly, "Dad, just tell me the truth! I can accept it."
"Goudan is a good candidate for medical studies, but I can't beat your mother. She will definitely let Goudan join the army. However, it depends on what our Goudan thinks." Chen Yitang finally finished speaking, lowered his head and asked Goudan: "Goudan, do you want to study medicine like your mother?"
"Yes." Goudan also listened to some of what Zeng Wenjuan learned when she was studying medicine. He thought that after he learned medicine, his parents would not get hurt again.
"Then when your grandmother asks you whether you want to study medicine or join the army, just say you want to study medicine, okay? Grandpa will teach you everything he has learned in his life." Chen Yintang said to Goudan with a smile.
Goudan shook his head obediently.
Chen Yitang was stunned, and asked softly: "What's wrong? What else do you want to say?"
"I can study medicine and then join the army. I want to protect my parents." Goudan said in a firm tone.
It was the first time that Zeng Wenjuan knew about Goudan’s idea. She felt happy and touched.
"Hahaha... why didn't Grandpa think of it! If you learn both, you will be very tired when you grow up and go to school. Are you still willing to learn?" Chen Yintang said with a smile.
Goudan nodded firmly: "It's okay, I can do it. Grandpa and Mom, please believe me!"
"Of course we all believe in Goudan, so it's settled. Let's make a pinky promise." Chen Yintang said with a childlike manner, stretching out his hand.
After the old and the young shook hands and made an agreement, Chen Yitang did not stay any longer. He had just returned and there were a lot of things waiting for him to deal with, but he could not refuse.
Zeng Wenjuan went into the house and said to Zhao Jianguo, "Brother Jianguo, can you stay home alone for a while? I'm going to the street to buy some vegetable seeds and two bones."
"No problem, I can do it alone. Xiaolin will come over later. He can help you take care of me when he is free." Zhao Jianguo said to Zeng Wenjuan.
Zeng Wenjuan nodded: "That's good, so you don't have to be alone at home when I go out. I'll ask my sister-in-law next door to help keep an eye on the noise at home!"
"Okay, be careful on the road." Zhao Jianguo reminded.
