The three members of the Tao family in the inner city were talking about this matter.
"Dad, I have given the dead ones a home. This matter has been resolved. I will give the injured ones money to go home and take care of them."
Tao Juncheng was very satisfied after hearing what his son said. He would not treat those who worked for the Tao family badly and could not let them feel cold.
"Zisheng, give five yuan to the deceased's family in my name." Tao Hong said.
After separation, my mood will be better, and I will be soft-hearted when encountering such things.
"I know, aunt.
Dad, is there any news about Chen Miao?"
Tao Juncheng shook his head, "No, I asked Huang Youwei and he said that it had been arranged before he left. Chen Miao was waiting at the station."
"It should be fine. I heard that the kid didn't hurt anyone on the train." Tao Hong said with a frown. In fact, no one was sure. They were just looking forward to it, hoping that everything would be fine.
"Dad, how about I go to the north and have a look?"
Tao Juncheng looked at his son in confusion, and suddenly he had a ridiculous idea in his heart. Could this boy have fallen in love with Chen Miao? That woman was indeed very beautiful, and she was also very unusual.
Tao Hong also looked at her nephew and was quite curious as to why he had such an idea.
Tao Juncheng shook his head, "No."
"Dad, I just want to go out and have a look." A woman can come from the north to the south, why can't I?
"No, it's too dangerous outside. I don't know what will happen along the way."
Tao Zisheng was unwilling to give in. He was really too curious about the outside world. In fact, he still wanted to go to the battlefield. Although the inner city had not changed yet. The little devils were not allowed to act rashly, and the patriots did not dare to blatantly publicize it.
Two classmates have already joined the army. He also wants to go, but he doesn't want to join the national army.
He had guessed Chen Miao's identity. He also wanted to become a Route Army soldier like her. He felt that the truth was with the Route Army soldiers, and they could help the motherland escape from being invaded and become prosperous and powerful.
Knowing a son is better than a father, Tao Juncheng could see his son's thoughts. He would not agree, although his thoughts had changed.
"Chen Miao told me that she is just an ordinary person, and she is just doing what she thinks she should do."
Tao Zisheng was stunned for a moment. "Isn't she?"
Tao Juncheng nodded, "Yes, that's what she told me. It means to do what you think is right, no matter what your identity is.
She is a country girl who got a lot of money from killing little devils, so she has the courage to travel thousands of miles here to purchase supplies. The purpose is to provide some welfare protection for the soldiers who kill the enemy on the battlefield.
I understood what she was thinking, that is, the only way to drive out the invaders is to go to the battlefield. Our country is poor, and the army is even more poor.
As businessmen, we also have ways to serve our motherland."
"father."
"I don't think it's a bad thing if you have ideas, but you have to think carefully about whether you go to the battlefield to kill the enemy or provide money to the route army, and more importantly, which weapon is more suitable for you. That is, which one did you do?
better.
When you go to the battlefield to kill enemies, you may be able to kill a few or dozens. But if you work hard to make money and provide the team with advanced foreign weapons, which one is more helpful to the country?"
Tao Zisheng lowered his head and fell into deep thought. It is true that he has been educated by businessmen since he was a child and always looks at the final profit in everything he does.
My father was right. If he could get a tank, wouldn't he be able to kill hundreds of little Japs?
The brother and sister looked at each other, knowing that this meant Tao Zisheng was moved. But they were really afraid that something would happen to him. What if he really ran away?
In the evening, they were the only brothers and sisters in the study. "Brother, you want to have a few more children. When Zisheng has a girl he likes, let him get married too. The Tao family is too thin."
Brother, it’s not okay to do this. Grandpa once said that people live their lives. Otherwise, what’s the use of having more money?”
Tao Juncheng shook his head, "I have no idea at all."
"Brother, now is not the time for you to have any ideas. You have to consider the actual situation."
"I will consider it. Can you find someone too?"
Tao Hong didn't answer, she had her own ideas. Zisheng wanted to join the army, and she wanted to go too.
She was self-aware and knew that she had no chance of going to the battlefield. What her elder brother just said was right, so she wanted to cooperate with Chen Miao, and the two of them prepared supplies for the team together.
But we must leave the inner city and we must not affect the Tao family.
Tao Juncheng looked at his sister. "What do you want to do?"
She knew she couldn't hide it from her elder brother, so she told him her thoughts.
Tao Juncheng frowned and thought for a while, "It's not impossible, but that would be more dangerous."
"Brother, I think life is more interesting that way, and I realize myself."
"You decide for yourself, and you have to remember to pay attention to safety."
"Well, I know, brother. I think Chen Miao must have asked Huang Youwei to help find supplies again. How long will it take for our factory to have the goods? I want to send them to them."
Tao Juncheng shook his head, "No. Ten thousand pairs will be available in two months. But you can't send them over."
"Why? I can do it too. Chen Miao told me that she bought candy as a cover. Can't I just do this?"
Tao Juncheng still shook his head, "No. I can agree to you trying to go with her, but you definitely can't escort her alone."
Tao Hong looked at her elder brother's firm expression and said, "Okay, I'll write to Chen Miao and ask her to come over."
Looking at the excited sister Tao Juncheng, the words came to her lips but she didn't say anything.
After Tao Hong finished writing the letter, she was afraid that something might happen on the way and she would not be able to reach Chen Miao's hands, so she simply wrote a second letter. One was sent to the train station to ask for help from an acquaintance, and the other was sent from the post office.
She was not worried about the danger if the letter was intercepted. The two of them had already discussed the code words to use. The whole article was filled with thoughts about their two children. She was also invited to visit her home.
I sent both letters the next morning, so I went to the factory myself. If I helped my elder brother, it might be faster.
Chen Miao had dumplings here at Shen's house. They were really delicious. Zhao Xiaoyun also went out of his way to put four eggs in them this time.
That is to say, the children ate dumplings the whole time, and the adults still had to eat corn tortillas.
After dinner, Mother went home to sleep. Chen Dou helped clean up the yard, so there was nothing to do.
In the evening, Chen He and his family came over. The three of them had eaten enough and were practicing in the yard.
The two children learned Zamabu from Tao Zisheng, and they never failed to do it on the train. They just kept on doing it.
When guests came to the house, the two of them still practiced Qigong without being affected.
"Third sister, what are Yunshan and Yunxin doing?"
"There was a man in the south who taught the two of them Zamabu, and they kept practicing every day."
Chen He's family had heard of Zamabu. After all, they had heard of it when the landlord's family invited opera troupes to sing in the past.
