Chapter 201
Shi Dongzhi trotted over to the visiting dormitory to see his mother and daughter-in-law, but to his surprise, his mother wasn't there, and neither was his wife. After asking Luo Xin about what they'd been doing while he was gone, he realized what they'd been doing. He was happy they were enjoying themselves, but a pang of guilt welled up inside him.
I went to the family quarters and first met my mother at Political Commissar Gao's house, where she was learning how to roll out noodles. Then I met my daughter-in-law at the Third Battalion Commander's house, where she was giving acupuncture to a pregnant woman to help her stay healthy.
Because he still had work to do there, he met the person briefly and then left.
But when she saw her son coming back safely, Su finally let go of the worry that had been weighing on her mind.
In the evening, after dinner, Weisheng and Su were winding the newly bought wool in the dormitory, when Dongzhi came back from outside, all damp.
Seeing her son back, Su was delighted and asked him all sorts of questions. Since he couldn't talk about the mission, Shi Dongzhi only told his mother the good news and not the bad news, and then calmly changed the subject.
Weisheng listened to their conversation with a smile on his face. Shi Dongzhi would glance at Weisheng from time to time. He knew that she was still a little embarrassed after hearing about the news.
Before nine o'clock, Su urged her son to go to the inner room to sleep. When Dongzhi entered the inner room, Su played with Weisheng with wool for a while, then pretended to be sleepy and said she wanted to rest.
Seeing this, Weisheng helped Su to make the bed, and when she was not paying attention, he placed a small piece of calming incense on the windowsill of the outer room.
In just a few breaths, Su fell into a deep sleep.
After Su fell asleep, Weisheng changed into home clothes in the outer room before entering the inner room.
Shi Dongzhi had already taken off his coat and was lying on the bed. When he saw Weisheng come in, his body tensed up for a moment, then relaxed calmly.
Weisheng climbed onto the bed leisurely from the other side, but when he did so, he placed an incense burner filled with calming incense at the foot of the bed.
The logistics department only gave them one quilt. At this time, the two of them were lying side by side in the quilt. Shi Dongzhi looked so stiff that he didn't look like a living person.
Afterwards, Dongzhi fell into a deep sleep due to rapid breathing and inhaling too much calming incense, just like Su in the outer room, and fell into a deep sleep without knowing anything.
When Shi Dongzhi's breathing was no longer rapid but became slow and long, Weisheng pulled Shi Dongzhi's hand under the quilt and took his pulse.
He didn't have any serious illness, but he had a lot of hidden injuries.
Young people don’t need much supplementation because they are full of energy, but people of this age generally lack vitamins and nutrients.
After estimating the time, Weisheng took out a large bag of parenteral nutrition solution and gave it to Shi Dongzhi for injection.
Worried that Shi Dongzhi would notice if he inserted the needle into the back of his hand, Weisheng inserted the needle directly into the back of his foot.
Weisheng set an alarm on his mobile phone and withdrew the medicine at five in the morning.
The army's wake-up call was 6 a.m., and Shi Dongzhi's biological clock was 5:55, so when he woke up 5 minutes early, he saw Weisheng sleeping beside him, relaxed and at ease.
Winter Solstice: "..."
Shi Dongzhi thought that he was too tired from the mission and was too nervous, so he fell asleep. He felt a kind of regret in his heart, but he still got up quietly, tucked the quilt gently into Weisheng, and then put on his clothes and went out.
When he came out, Su was still asleep, so he moved even more gently.
After the exercise, I went to the cafeteria to have breakfast, and then came back with the lunch box to deliver the meal.
Since Luo Xin had always delivered meals to them, Weisheng and Su would get up around 6:30, and today was no exception.
The team leader gave Shi Dongzhi a day off, so Shi Dongzhi can stay with Weisheng and the others all day today.
However, Weisheng had to go to the family quarters this morning to help the sister-in-law who came yesterday with her pregnancy, and Su also had to teach a young wife from the south how to make corn pancakes, so during the holiday, Dongzhi became the most idle one among the three members of the family.
After lunch, Su Shi didn't need her son and daughter-in-law to accompany her, and went out with her wool. Wei Sheng saw Shi Dongzhi sitting opposite him, staring at him, and couldn't help but find a topic to chat with him.
Have you ever thought about applying to military school?
Never thought about it.
Do you want to apply to military school?
Listening to the tone of the words, Shi Dongzhi immediately asked Weisheng, "Do you want me to apply to a military academy?"
"I believe the college entrance exam will be reinstated. When it is, I will definitely apply to university." Weisheng nodded nonchalantly. "What do you think about women studying?"
No opinion.
Shi Dongzhi swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, and mentally organized his words before answering Weisheng: "Nowadays, men and women are equal in this new society, and studying does not need to be divided by gender. There is a saying, I don't remember where I heard it, but I think it makes a lot of sense."
Weisheng tilted his head to look at him, "What?"
"It's 'Women who study and receive an education can teach their husbands and raise their children; they can govern a country or manage a household.'" Shi Dongzhi recalled and told Weisheng, "I think this is a very good saying."
It was indeed very good, and she knew who said it.
Weisheng pondered for a moment and continued, "Just like you said just now, reading doesn't have to be divided by gender, it's always good to read more.
Going to a military academy to systematically learn some military knowledge will not only help your future development, but also show your responsibility to the soldiers under your command.
Even if you take a step back, you're not the most experienced of all the platoon leaders. Instead of waiting for the same experience as them, it's better to take a shortcut. You have the practical experience of grassroots combat, and you also have systematic military knowledge. In the future... who else but you?
Shi Dongzhi's biggest wish was to be promoted to deputy battalion commander as soon as possible so that he could bring his mother and wife to the base. Although he had made a small contribution by going to support the third company, it was not enough.
But if he applied to a military academy, he wouldn't have any chance of promotion for at least three or four years. He preferred to work hard to get promoted first, and then think about applying to a military academy.
"Puff~"
When Dongzhi finished speaking, Weisheng couldn't help but laugh.
"Do you think applying to a military academy is like buying cabbage? You can just take the exam and get in?"
Weisheng smiled and gave him a glare before continuing, "If you want to take the exam, I'll get you some review questions while Mom and I are here. When you have some free time, work through the review questions thoroughly and memorize them. Then, when you get a chance to apply for a promotion within the army, go ahead and try. If one year doesn't work out, try two years. If two years don't work out, try three. Maybe you can get a promotion and study at the same time."
Shi Dongzhi stared blankly at Weisheng, who was smiling and talking freely. She always felt that at this moment she was so beautiful that she seemed to be glowing.
Slowly retracting his gaze, Shi Dongzhi looked down at his hands and suddenly felt ashamed of himself.
She trained herself to be so outstanding...
He had once heard a phrase, "a pearl covered in dust." He had not known where it was used before, but now he knew.
Shi Dongzhi, who was originally sitting face to face with Weisheng and still a little distracted, suddenly felt a sense of inferiority, which instantly extinguished the restlessness in his heart.
He sat there with his head down, and it took him almost a quarter of an hour before he looked up at Weisheng again.
Shi Dongzhi: "I want to apply to military academy."
Shi Dongzhi didn't say anything about what he would do for Weisheng, but instead expressed his true feelings in just five simple words.
Upon hearing this, Wei Sheng smiled brightly at Shi Dongzhi and said, "Okay, I'll help you!"
She likes people who work hard and make progress.
The original owner's wish was simple: to live a happy life. But Weisheng wasn't one to help the poor. If Shi Dongzhi couldn't meet his expectations, Weisheng wouldn't mind replacing him with someone else.
'Boom boom boom!'
Just as Weisheng was talking to Shi Dongzhi, Luo Xin suddenly stood in the yard and knocked on the dormitory window.
Seeing Weisheng looking over, Luo Xin hurriedly shouted through the window: "Sister-in-law, the captain's car won't start, can you go and take a look?"
Weisheng immediately put down the yarn in his hand, stood up and said to Luo Xin: "I'll be right there!"
He first went to the metal cabinet in the inner room to get the tool bag, and then without waiting for Weisheng to say anything, Shi Dongzhi followed Weisheng out.
The three of them met at the entrance and made their way down to the office building. From a distance, they could see Captain Li frantically pacing around, while the driver, Xiao He, and several unfamiliar soldiers gathered around the hood of the car, staring.
Those soldiers were all skilled in auto repair in the garrison. Although they had heard of Weisheng, they did not think that a villager who had little contact with cars knew how to repair a car.
They didn't show anything just out of respect for the military wives.
They didn't expect that an expert would know whether the disease existed or not with just one look. Weisheng only did a few checks and they realized that they had underestimated him.
It took Weisheng less than half an hour to repair Captain Li's jeep. Captain Li said a few words of thanks to Weisheng and went to the division headquarters.
Shi Dongzhi saw that Weisheng's hands were covered in oil, so he took Weisheng to the washroom in the office building to wash his hands.
After washing his hands, Shi Dongzhi took Weisheng to visit the office building.
Coming out of the office building, Weisheng smiled and said to Shi Dongzhi, "I suddenly had an idea."
Shi Dongzhi imitated Weisheng and tilted his head. He asked in a gentle yet slightly sexy voice, "Hmm?"
Because of this action, Weisheng finally set his eyes on Shi Dongzhi's face.
Sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, straight nose and thin lips.
He has a calm and reserved temperament, and is also... a man of vigor and vitality.
Putting aside his less serious thoughts, Weisheng told Shi Dongzhi the plan he had thought of before visiting his relatives, "I have skills, and my mother is a hardworking person. We can live anywhere, and we don't necessarily have to go back to Sanhe Village.
Huyang City is not small. Even if there are no factories hiring for a while, I can still support myself. We can rent a house in Huyang City so that I can stay with you and you can worry less.
Rent a house, then go to the street office to register, stay in Huyang City on the pretext of medical treatment, and secretly break a few machines. Are you still afraid that there will be no stage to perform?
It’s not difficult to find a decent job.
My allowance is only a few dozen yuan, and a single room in Huyang City costs only a few yuan a month.
Following Weisheng's words, Shi Dongzhi really thought this was a good idea.
But if you live in the city without a supply certificate, you probably won’t be able to buy rice, flour, grain, and oil even if you have money.
Weisheng winked at Shi Dongzhi and said confidently, "I only spent seven dollars and sixty cents on building the radio for Mom. I went to the city with the logistics team a few days ago and got some more materials. I heard from my sisters-in-law that there are several villages nearby, and they allow villagers to trade with each other. If I use the radio to trade with the villagers for some rice, flour, and firewood, do you think anyone would be willing to do so?"
Everyone is rushing to exchange with you!
Seeing this, Weisheng Zhao Dongzhi spread his hands and said, "That's it."
Moreover, she didn't charge money, she just bartered, so even if people found out, it wouldn't be considered profiteering.
Shi Dongzhi: ...Just ask me what virtue and ability I have?
