Simple and funny.
"Alright, that's enough to vent some of your anger for Brother Wu. Are you happy now?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Rui immediately became angry again. When Cheng Chao was in the army, Xiao Wu was the one who took care of them when he didn't have time, so he and Xiao Wu were naturally close.
“I’m not happy. Brother Wu is so badly injured and still hasn’t woken up. What’s a little fright like this? It’s not even worth interest.”
"Sister, wouldn't this kind of behavior be considered malicious harm, and isn't there any punishment?"
Cheng An was also helpless; after all, he was still a child, and his thinking was limited.
Jian Dan doesn't know much about the current laws, but from the perspective of the future, this is a rescue process, and it's normal for accidents to happen. Moreover, the other party's behavior can at most be described as urgent and protective of property. As for intentional injury, she really wouldn't have the guts.
It's roughly similar to the later phenomenon where someone jumps off a building and people below cheer them on, but compared to that, it doesn't have that twisted sense of fun. She was genuinely after her own possessions, so it could only be considered inappropriate behavior.
Seeing her shake her head, Cheng An's eyes dimmed as well, and he gritted his teeth, clearly unwilling to give up.
"Sister, did Fifth Brother suffer for nothing?"
Jian Dan knew perfectly well that given their status and the difficult times of scarcity, they especially valued the spirit of selfless dedication and progress. The scenario they hoped for was very likely to never happen.
The most likely outcome of this is that Xiao Wu will be treated as a hero, a role model, and praised, and that's about it.
The two children, having grown up in the military region, were used to this kind of thing. In fact, they had known what was going on for a long time, but they were just unwilling to accept it.
"Sister, this is not fair to Fifth Brother."
“You guys, tell me, hasn’t your dad been unfair enough over the years?”
This kind of thing cannot be judged by whether it's fair or unfair.
Wearing this uniform means being subject to many restrictions. As the slogan says, "Endure hardship and toil first, enjoy comfort and pleasure later."
There's really no need to say anything simple. They grew up in military camps and were exposed to this kind of environment from a young age. Over more than ten years, they should have learned these things through constant exposure.
"good,"
As the voices rang out, the door was pushed open, and Lin Zhengde, his face filled with murderous intent, and Cheng Chao, who looked travel-worn, entered. They had been outside, having overheard the sisters' conversation.
"Your sister is right. Wearing this outfit represents honor and responsibility, but at the same time, it means losing a lot of freedom."
But don't worry, Xiao Wu still has the army; he won't let you down.
"Uh-huh!"
After listening to a few words of lecture, the two children immediately rushed towards Cheng Chao, their faces filled with surprise and the grievance of seeing their parents after being bullied.
"Brother, why are you back?"
"Brother, Fifth Brother is injured and hasn't woken up yet."
The atmosphere immediately relaxed, and Cheng Chao patted his two younger brothers.
"It's alright, I'm back. I'll definitely find a way to make Xiao Wu better."
"Yes, Uncle Mu said we can't have any bumpy rides, otherwise we'll have to take him to the hospital."
What Cheng Chao didn't say was that sending them to the hospital might not necessarily be better than they are now, because due to the snow disaster, the doctors and nurses at the commune hospital and the county hospital had been requisitioned, so there was a high chance that they would just end up empty-handed.
“You did the right thing. For professional matters, you should listen to the professionals. Where’s Xiao Wu? I brought Lao Yang over.”
Jian Dan noticed Old Yang outside the door. Like Cheng Chao, he looked exhausted. It seemed he hadn't rested at all before being dragged over, so his stomach was probably empty too.
"At the educated youth compound, Xiao An and Xiao Rui will take you there. We can see if Uncle Mu has managed to borrow any silver needles, as he said he needs acupuncture."
"You guys go take a look first, then come back for dinner."
Cheng Chao didn't stand on ceremony either.
"OK."
Having been trained, Lin Zhengde noticed the messy animal footprints at the door as soon as he stepped outside. Following the footprints back, he realized something was wrong.
What's going on at your house?
Cheng Chao rolled his eyes at him.
"Uncle Lin, are you out of your mind?"
Who delivered the letter to you just now?
Only then did they notice the four dogs in the yard that had jumped over the wall and run away.
"By the way, brother, where's Jixiang?"
Lin Zhengde slapped his forehead.
"You mean your dog? It delivered the letter and ran off, I couldn't get it to stop me no matter how much I called it,"
"Oh, it probably went to play by itself. It's okay, you guys go ahead."
Cheng Chao glanced at the outer wall several times before following the direction of the educated youth compound.
As Jian Dan closed the door, she wondered what his look meant. When she turned around, she was so frightened that she almost screamed.
A huge wolf's head appeared silently behind her, and she didn't even notice. Her heart was still pounding, and naturally, she was furious. Forgetting even her fear, she slapped the wolf on the head.
"What are you doing? Trying to scare me to death?"
After saying that, he stormed into the house, kicking up the snow at his feet.
The wolf cub behind him was left bewildered after being slapped, letting out a soft "howl" as if it were wronged.
Anyway, these people all knew she wasn't short of money, so she didn't keep it. She simply cooked a whole pot of stew. Cheng Chao hadn't gotten to eat the venison from last time, so it was left for him at the child's request. It was perfect timing.
Although I was a bit inexperienced, the seasoning packet saved me, so I wasn't afraid of making a mistake and quickly got the fire going.
She wasn't idle outside either. With Lin Zhengde and Lao Yang around, she didn't plan to keep those beasts at home. The four dogs were fine, she took good care of them, but those things were indeed hers to raise, and she wasn't afraid of being seen or investigated. They were not presentable to anyone.
