Chapter 70 People are not machines, they are not born to make money.
In this matter, Xiao Ai must stand on Cheng Yang's side.
Not to mention that she had no plans to go to the capital right now. Even if she did, she would definitely rely on herself and had never thought of begging for food from others.
So she asked directly: "What did you choose in the end?"
Since some things have to be given up, then there must be room for choice. Shi Xiaoai believes that Cheng Yang will definitely not let herself get to the point where there is no way out.
"I'm going to school." Cheng Yang replied.
"Go to school?" Shi Xiaoai was a little surprised. She didn't expect there would be such a choice.
"The Command College is going to hold a special training class for cadres. The Chief of Staff said that if I don't want to go to headquarters, the unit can send me here to study. After graduation, I will be reassigned to a new job, of course, I will most likely return to our group army.
The Command Academy is in Yunjing, just over fifty kilometers away from home. If you agree, I'd like to choose this one."
Cheng Yang looked at Shi Xiaoai with eager eyes.
Yunjing is a county adjacent to Yuncheng, with a direct bus service to the city. Although Shi Xiaoai had never been there, she had seen the bus stop there many times.
So I'm not completely unfamiliar with this place.
But she didn't know that there was a command academy there.
However, being able to go to school is a good thing in any era, especially for those who are sponsored by the government. If you are not valued by the government, you will not get such an opportunity.
So she immediately replied: "If you want to go, go ahead."
"Then you don't despise me, do you? I'll be gone for two years, and I'll get nothing but basic salary during these two years."
Shi Xiaoai glanced at him and asked, "Do I really need you to support me?"
"Yes! My wife is much more capable than me!" Cheng Yang laughed.
Shi Xiaoai's words made Cheng Yang laugh again.
He reached out and suddenly hugged Shi Xiaoai, pressing her head against his chest.
Xiao Ai was caught off guard and was hugged by the man again, which scared her.
Thinking that Xiaofeng might come over at any time, she struggled hard, but the man pressed her head heavily against his chest.
Even through the thick cotton coat, she could hear the man's laughter and the resonance of his chest.
School starts in early April, which is less than twenty days away.
Now that you have decided to go, you need to start preparing for many things.
Other things are easy to deal with, but Shi Xiaoai wants to buy Cheng Yang a proper set of clothes.
Because she had earned some money these days, Shi Xiaoai bought some clothes for herself and her two children.
She said that she bought the clothes for the two children, but it turned out that they were all prepared by Aunt Liu.
When they first came back, the two children were dressed worse than beggars. Although clean, their clothes were patched up and gray in color.
The next day after returning, Aunt Liu brought two sets of altered clothes, saying that they were worn by her children when they were young, and asked Mingxi and Mingrui to wear them for the time being.
Shi Xiaoai has always been a strong person. Even though she was poor at that time, she didn't want to be looked down upon by others.
So the first thing she did after receiving the supply book was to give cloth coupons and money to Aunt Liu, asking her to help choose some cloth and make some clothes for the two children.
She gave a processing fee.
Shi Xiaoai's move was considered to have found a great job for Aunt Liu and the other aunts and sisters in the office.
The main reason is that their children are so cute. Who wouldn’t love such a well-behaved, obedient and somewhat pitiful-looking child?
So everyone took action together.
They used their connections to find people to find defective fabrics for them, help with cutting and sewing, and some even volunteered to contribute their home sewing machines.
So within a few days, the two children had received several beautiful sets of clothes.
This outfit is not just a coat, it also includes the cotton-padded jacket and trousers, sweater and trousers inside to form a set.
Shi Xiaoai benefited from her two children, and the aunts did not forget her when choosing cloth for the children. After all, what she wore was not that good.
So, she also bought a polyester cotton jacket and two pairs of straight-leg pants.
They are all new styles that are popular in Yuncheng recently.
Shi Xiaoai actually quite likes these clothes because the styles are very simple.
She is very glad that now is not two or three years later, when wide-leg flared pants are not yet popular, and clothes nowadays are mainly simple and elegant.
Shi Xiaoai didn't plan to buy new clothes for herself or her children. Even if she had money, she could save it for spring clothes.
But Cheng Yang had to buy a few more items.
Xiao Ai looked at the clothes he brought back. They were all military supplies inside and out, even his underwear.
Although you can wear military uniforms, you can't wear them all the time. You always need some casual clothes to change into.
So, she immediately suggested to Cheng Yang that they take a day off tomorrow and go out shopping as a family.
Cheng Yang was surprised by her suggestion, but he was still very happy when he heard that she was going to buy clothes for him.
He pretended to refuse, but when Xiao Ai glared at him, he immediately agreed.
When Wang Xiaofeng came in the evening, Shi Xiaoai told her this decision. Wang Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, obviously feeling a little unbelievable.
When business is so good, why would anyone spend money instead of earning it?
You have to make money, but you also have to spend the money you earn!
People are not machines, and they are not born to make money.
Of course, this is just Shi Xiaoai's own idea, and she certainly wouldn't expect everyone to understand it.
Seeing that she was determined to do so, Wang Xiaofeng asked, "Sister, how about you give me the key to the tea stall and I can open it myself tomorrow?"
"You can't do it yourself, you're definitely too busy. And Aunt Liu can help you make pancakes at home, but it's not appropriate for her to come along and help you sell them, right?"
Shi Xiaoai did not agree.
Wang Xiaofeng thought for a while and asked, "Sister, if I finish making it, can I take it to the hospital entrance to sell it?"
"Sure. I'll give you the key to my house. You can come over tomorrow morning. Just remember to lock the door for me after you use it."
Wang Xiaofeng happily agreed.
Because they didn't have to set up a stall the next day and didn't need to make steamed buns, they didn't work hard that night and went to bed early.
The next morning, the four of them woke up as usual.
Looking at the dark sky outside, Shi Xiaoai was speechless.
Why do we need to get up so early to go shopping?!
At this moment, Cheng Yang walked in from outside.
He first picked up Mingxi, who was already whimpering and trying to get up in bed, and then pulled Shi Xiaoai: "Now that you're awake, don't stay in bed. Hurry up and get up. I'll take you to see the sea!"
Watching the sea was not attractive to Shi Xiaoai, but it was different for the two children.
Yuncheng is close to the sea, but the two of them have never even seen the shadow of the sea!
When Mingxi heard that his parents were taking them to see the sea, he stopped complaining and put on his clothes neatly without even asking for help from adults.
Cheng Yang was about to go cook, but Shi Xiaoai yawned and said, "No, let's go out and eat. Take us to see the sea, and I'll treat you to something delicious!"
