Liu Shiguo suddenly realized that his younger sister was indeed capable. She must have made proper preparations for going to other places, especially when taking someone with mobility issues with her.
However, he astutely noticed something: "You said you'd go pick wild berries to earn your tuition?"
Liu Shihua was stunned by his elder brother's question. He sweared to God that he really didn't mean to say this!
Okay, he admits he did it on purpose, because his mother went too far.
Anyway, their older brother is back, and they're all adults now, so they can talk to him directly about some things, right?
He couldn't control what his mother did, but he also couldn't let her take advantage of him while being sarcastic.
So he scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, smiled憨厚ly, and said, "Well, we actually wanted to save money to help my eldest sister with her dowry."
So Liu Shiguo started a new round of questioning. Since they were his own brothers, he didn't use his usual methods.
Liu Shihua was quite cooperative, spilling out everything she should and shouldn't say, except for things that involved her sister's secrets.
The more Liu Shiguo listened, the more his brows furrowed. He had originally thought that his second sister's changes were significant enough.
But now I realize that everyone in the family has changed, so the changes in my second sister don't seem so significant anymore.
"Here's what we'll do: from now on, I'll directly transfer your and Lele's tuition and living expenses to you. Just write to me if you need anything."
After carefully reviewing the family matters, Liu Shiguo finally made this statement.
He himself loves learning, so he has always supported and encouraged his younger siblings to read more books and learn more knowledge.
He understood that building the country required more knowledgeable people, and although he was young at the time, he continued to study on his own.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to transfer to the research institute after being injured.
To be honest, Liu Shihua felt really embarrassed in front of such an older brother.
I feel like I've become a bad person and made things difficult for my older brother. Actually, he didn't have to do that.
after all……
"Don't overthink it. I know what kind of person Mom is. Just focus on your studies and don't worry about money."
You can come visit me in the capital next year during your holiday, and I'll take you all on a great trip then.
Liu Shihua nodded, "Then you should rest well, brother. I won't disturb you any longer."
After saying this, Liu Shihua left, fearing that if he stayed any longer, he would lose his ability to keep the secret.
There are some things he needs to ask his sister about.
Liu Shiguo originally thought he would be unable to sleep.
But the truth is, it's really delicious!
He fell asleep quickly and didn't even notice when his younger brother went to bed later!
Logically, someone who is usually so tense shouldn't be sleeping so soundly, but that's exactly what happened.
The next day, Liu Shiguo was still a little dazed when he woke up. After thinking for a while, he remembered that he had already returned home.
The bed next to him was still cold. He looked out the window and saw a faint light.
I glanced at the time and was surprised to find that it was already past seven o'clock the next day!
He jumped up instantly, nervously surveying the room.
Aside from a pleasant smell at the tip of his nose, he noticed nothing else.
Hearing some noises in the courtyard, he didn't linger and went straight out the door.
Then he saw his younger brother practicing boxing in the yard.
Liu Shihua was playing very seriously, but when she saw her older brother, she grinned and greeted him.
Liu Shiguo nodded and started practicing his boxing as well.
However, he didn't stop talking and asked his question.
The result was that his sister was worried that he wasn't sleeping well, so she gave him some dried herbs to help him sleep.
Liu Shiguo's mood began to waver. This thing had actually managed to make him fall asleep without him even noticing; it seemed quite extraordinary.
I know my sister has a teacher who practices traditional Chinese medicine, but how come he doesn't know that traditional Chinese medicine has such methods?
Even the most skilled military doctors he had ever met couldn't do this, so what exactly did his sister learn?
No, he'd have to ask his sister later to see if he could get some from her. He needed to develop antibodies.
Otherwise, if an enemy came with such a thing, wouldn't he be completely defenseless?
No, that's not right. It would be best to have some samples of this stuff studied by reliable people. If it could be researched and applied to certain special units, that would be great.
At this moment, Liu Shiguo was filled with many thoughts, but his body's memory still allowed him to practice his boxing in a very standard manner.
"Shihua, just say what's on your mind. Why are you hesitating like this?"
After withdrawing his fist, Liu Shiguo looked at his younger brother, who seemed to want to say something but hesitated, with some dissatisfaction.
Liu Shihua twitched the corner of her mouth, looked around, and whispered, "Well, big brother, I'm worried you'll beat me up if I tell you. If you don't beat me up, I'll tell you."
Liu Shiguo couldn't help but find it amusing to look at his younger brother like this.
But he remained serious and didn't say he wouldn't beat people up. He only said, "Tell me first. If it doesn't violate principles or harm national interests, I won't beat you up."
Liu Shihua's face fell. Although he felt he was doing alright, he was still uncertain about the outcome.
However, seeing the glare from his older brother, he decided to behave himself.
Anyway, whether you stick your neck out or not, you'll get stabbed. Lele said that her older brother needs to know about this.
So, with a heavy heart, he resigned himself to his fate and whispered, "Brother, Lele and I have cleared some land in the deep mountains."
Upon hearing this, Liu Shiguo's smile vanished. How dare they do such a thing?
Don't they realize that people like them are simply not suited to own land these days?
He really wanted to ask his younger brother if he had lost his mind, or if the family was lacking him in food or water.
But the thought of them having to earn their own living expenses and tuition fees made him unable to say it again.
If they weren't forced into it, why would they, who had never done farm work before, do such a thing?
But before he could speak, he heard his younger brother say, "Lele said that today's rain disaster is too harmful."
Therefore, she felt that if we strived to be self-sufficient, we could reduce the burden on the country, and any surplus could be donated to help build the nation.
Liu Shiguo glared at him, annoyed. "So, you think you're in the right? When did this start? How much land have you cleared, and what are you planning to do with it?"
Liu Shihua answered honestly and seriously, then said, "Brother, why don't you come with us for a stroll today?"
So, they're going deep into the mountains again today? That's incredibly wild!
However, if you have nothing to do, you can go for a walk in the mountains and, while you're at it, remind your younger siblings to behave themselves.
He's not a stubborn person; although this matter is somewhat inappropriate, it's not a big deal.
So he nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you guys to take a look in a bit."
At this point, he glanced at his younger brother, who was relieved, with a half-smile.
He then said, "Shihua, come and let your older brother see how well you've practiced."
Liu Shihua burst into tears. He had only been training for a little over a year. How could he compare to his valiant and battle-hardened elder brother?
So he said with a pained expression, "Brother, can we not fight?"
His response was his elder brother's fist, so he was forced to fight back.
In the past, when he fought against his sister, he was always the one who was suppressed.
He assumed the same would happen with his older brother, since his brother's prowess was already etched into his mind.
