Chen Ruixue's mouth dropped open in astonishment.
Is there really such a good thing?
"You, you..."
"You don't need to be so formal with me now, right? I'm telling you not to worry about dragging me down, and you won't have to worry at all once we get to the county."
"Once we get there, I'll be in charge."
Ouyang Zhenyu pushed the bowl towards her.
"Now eat your fill."
Eat well, get some rest, and recover your strength.
Chen Ruixue was both surprised and delighted.
The dumplings tasted even better this time.
Then I remembered the female comrade who had talked to me before.
He said it tentatively.
“Brother Ouyang, have you ever thought about this…”
"Did someone talk to you about something? Whoever contacts you, you need to have your own ideas."
Although the Chen family is currently facing difficulties, this is only temporary; they may encounter these difficulties again in eight or ten years.
We have to endure this slowly, but after the storm comes the rainbow.
"If you don't trust others, do you not trust me?"
Am I the kind of person who's fickle and cares about social standing? If that were the case, I wouldn't have chosen you in the first place.
"You were the one who provoked me in the first place, so don't even think about getting rid of me now. We're destined to be together forever."
Ouyang Zhenyu said this in a serious tone, which made Chen Ruixue laugh in exasperation.
But deep down, I felt a sweet warmth. This man was saying the harshest things with a straight face, but his motivation from beginning to end was always for his own benefit.
To protect himself, he was even willing to do something so extraordinary.
It's no simple matter that the chicken and pig farms under the military hospital can accommodate so many people.
The number of people transferred from this county totaled at least two or three hundred, all of whom were assigned to units under the Ouyang Zhenyu Military Region Hospital.
That's not an easy task.
"I will never mention Ouyang Zhenyu again."
Anyway, you're my man. If anyone dares to try and persuade me to leave you again, I'll slap them across the face.
Ouyang Zhenyu gently pinched her nose.
That's more like it.
Don't be afraid. If your man is so incompetent that he can't even protect his own woman, what kind of man is he?
Moreover, I will soon become the director of the military hospital. The day I become the director, we will immediately get our marriage certificate.
Putting everything else aside, if I can't even protect you, then I might as well not get married, and never find a wife.
Chen Ruixue smiled sweetly; no matter what, this man was protecting her.
They were all so touching, making one wish to repay them with one's life.
“Ouyang Zhenyu…”
"Don't thank me, we're practically family."
"Eat your food properly, look how thin you've become!"
Ouyang Zhenyu then piled a bunch of dumplings into her bowl.
When you hear noises from next door, that means everyone has finished work.
Ouyang Zhenyu cooked the dumplings, scooped them into a bowl, and covered them with a lid.
He definitely can't show his face.
Chen Ruixue went out of the dugout to take a look. Everyone was busy cooking, and no one had time to pay attention to others.
Even if those educated youth wanted to keep an eye on them, they would have to go back and take care of their own internal organs at this moment.
I quietly delivered two bowls of dumplings to the old man and his two older brothers respectively.
Only then did Grandpa Chen realize that Ouyang Zhenyu had arrived, but it was really inappropriate for them to come and see him at this moment.
After dark, Ouyang Zhenyu quietly slipped out of the village.
Chen Ruixue then arrived at the old man's dugout.
Ouyang Zhenyu made so many dumplings that there were enough left over for two or three days.
The old man knew Ouyang Zhenyu had left as soon as he saw his granddaughter come in.
"What's wrong? You've made up? You've been looking troubled lately."
"You always talk about cutting ties with someone, but now you're not?"
He was very worried about his granddaughter's condition, but what was the use of worrying? They were in a situation where they could barely take care of themselves.
If they were to be with Ouyang Zhenyu, then Ouyang Zhenyu would face even greater risks than they did.
"Grandpa, nothing like that."
Oh, right, Zhenyu asked me to tell you.
Soon all of us who have been sent down to the countryside will be going to the county for centralized reform. We'll be going to a subordinate unit of their military region hospital.
"Grandpa, let's be patient a little longer, we'll be able to leave here soon."
The old man's eyes lit up upon hearing this, but at the same time, he was somewhat worried.
“Zhenyu’s actions will cause trouble. If someone thinks he is abusing his power for personal gain and reports him, that would be terrible.”
"Grandpa, you don't need to worry about it. Zhenyu said that their regimental commander will take responsibility for this. It has nothing to do with him."
The Chen family members were somewhat overjoyed. Who wouldn't want to leave this place?
Being watched closely by those educated youth every day, like being watched as a thief, made everyone uncomfortable.
Moreover, the educated youth would often cause them trouble, subjecting them to various forms of verbal and formal education.
To be precise, these educated youths were even more difficult to deal with than the villagers. At least the villagers didn't deliberately bully them, but the educated youths, who were clearly educated and cultured, deliberately picked fights with them.
Those two leaders are so desperate to use this opportunity to turn their lives around that they're willing to do anything.
If I could leave this place, even if it's tough and tiring, at least life would be more comfortable.
Sure enough, two days later, Ouyang Zhenyu sent a large truck to the village to pick up feed.
The surrounding villages combined their feed supply.
