He secretly made up his mind to help Fan Hua get into college, preferably the same school as him, so that they could see each other often in the future. He really liked being with Fan Hua and he wanted to date her...
The more Zheng Zening thought about it, the happier he became. He ate his meal with big mouthfuls and felt that today's food was especially delicious!
"Comrade Zheng, eat slowly and don't choke. If there are not enough dishes, we can order more. Don't be in a hurry!" Fan Hua couldn't help but remind Zheng Zening when she saw how he was eating.
Zheng Zening was a little embarrassed and slowed down his eating. He forgot to restrain himself in his excitement. It was so embarrassing!
…
Both the host and the guests enjoyed the meal very much. After Zheng Zening left, Fan Hua asked Geng Ailing to accompany her to the post office. She had received another 250 yuan today, and it was time to pay back the 200 yuan that Zhao Yilu owed her!
"Sister Ai Ling, I've recorded all the money I've entered over the past few days in my account book. We'll settle the accounts at the end of each month. Today, I want to withdraw 200 yuan to send home. You know I took 200 yuan from home when I left. My family must be worried sick now, so I..."
Before Fan Hua could finish, Geng Ailing quickly spoke up, "Lihua, just do whatever you want. No need to explain so much to me. If I hadn't followed you, how could I have made so much money? I don't have the capital to do that. I'm really thinking about it. From now on, I'll just follow you. I'll do whatever you ask me to do. And, you don't have to share the money you earn. These are all your ideas and designs, so you should take the lion's share!"
"That won't do, Sister Ailing. I was thinking of taking some time off after bringing you out. Besides, my belly will get bigger and bigger, and I'll have to rely on you to take care of me in the future! Don't complain that you do more work than me but still get the same salary as me!"
“How could it be!”
"Then why are you still refusing me? From now on, I will treat you as my own sister. We are family and we have different opinions!"
Geng Ailing's eyes were red. If they were not on the road, she really wanted to hug Fan Hua and cry for a while. She felt the family love from Fan Hua that she had never felt before.
…
After arriving at the post office, Fan Hua handed the money to the post office staff and filled in the military address left by Zhao Yilu on the remittance form. After finishing all this, she breathed a sigh of relief and took Mrs. Geng home.
When she passed by the newsstand downstairs, she thought that she should call Zhao Yilu to remind him to accept the remittance. After all, two hundred yuan is not a small amount of money in this era. What if the other party did not accept it?
So he said to Geng Ailing, "Sister Ailing, please go upstairs first. I'll just make a phone call."
Geng Ailing thought Fan Hua was going to call her family in the village to report her safety, but since she still had a lot of orders to rush through, she didn't delay. She reminded Fan Hua to be careful of the steps when going upstairs and then went back to work.
Fan Hua held the phone book in her hand, thinking of Zhao Yilu's handsome face with a hint of rebelliousness, and the blushing dream that seemed to be engraved in her head, and she felt inexplicably nervous.
It's just a phone call, what's there to be nervous about, Fan Hua? After this call, you won't have any contact with Zhao Yilu, He Siyan and others anymore. Just start living your own life!
Fan Hua patted her face and kept hinting in her heart, but she was reluctant to step forward.
Aunt Sun, who was working at the newsstand, saw her and greeted her with a smile, "Young lady, what are you doing standing there? Do you want to buy a newspaper or make a phone call?"
Aunt Sun still had a deep impression of Fan Hua. This girl had just come here and made a phone call yesterday. She was not only pretty but also had a nice voice. She remembered her immediately.
When Fan Hua heard Aunt Sun calling her, she quickly said, "Auntie, I want to make a phone call."
After hearing this, the old lady smiled and brought a stool over to her: "Just sit down and play slowly!"
Fan Hua said thank you, took a breath, sat on the stool and dialed the number...
After a long wait, the call was connected.
"Hello, is this the Guicheng Army?" Fan Hua asked after the call was connected.
Sun Xiang, who was on duty in the communications office, said, "Yes, sir. Who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for new recruit Zhao Yilu. Could you please call him?"
