Rebirth: 1977

Yunzhe and Wen Yujie sat in the dark room. No matter how lightly their son and daughter walked up the stairs, it was of no use. The noise they made when they returned home was enough to alarm the couple who were waiting for them.

"How should I ask? What attitude should I use to ask? Or should you ask it?"

Yunzhe's tone was a little angry, but more helpless.

"You know Feiyang's temper and personality, don't you? He seems to be good-tempered, doesn't talk much, doesn't make noises, but he is very opinionated.

He has grown up, and now he cannot be beaten or scolded.

Jianxin's words have made it very clear that there is no room for maneuver.

Now, anything we can do except help is superfluous.”

Wen Yujie had been sitting for a long time, and her body was stiff. When she heard her man say this, she just sighed softly and stretched her body and limbs:

"Since you're not going to ask, are we just going to pretend we don't know?

Didn’t Su Jianxin say that we should prepare tuition fees for Feiyang? We have to calculate carefully how much the tuition and living expenses for a year will add up to. I have to prepare it in advance, right?

Also, please ask Su Jianxin, when will Feiyang leave?

Also, figure out what other daily necessities you need to prepare?

My mother's research institute is in the process of handing over, so I'll take this opportunity to get ready."

She was more approachable than Yunzhe. At that time, she had graduated from university and some of her classmates had gone abroad to study.

It's just that most of them didn't come back.

"Yunzhe, I'm worried that Feiyang will never come back after he leaves. What should we do then?"

Wen Yujie was thinking that the eldest son would never come back to them, and if the younger son stayed out after finishing his studies and didn't come back, then wouldn't all her hard work in giving birth to two sons be in vain?

Yunzhe said firmly, "I will be back, don't worry about that."

Yunzhe’s confidence that his youngest son will come back after completing his studies comes from Ye Tianshui.

"Whether it's studying abroad at public expense or at one's own expense, Xiaoshui will handle the formalities, and Feiyang will definitely come back."

Wen Yujie thought about the relationship between the brothers and agreed with this guess.

Yun Feiyang didn't sleep well the whole night. Even in his dreams he was thinking about how to tell his parents.

As a result, I slept until noon and woke up. The house was very quiet.

Yueyue had already gone to school, and his father and his security car were nowhere to be seen.

When he was having breakfast, he was alone at the table, and his mother was not there. He asked the nanny: "When did my father leave? Is my mother home?"

"The chief left around 6:30, and his wife has been gone for an hour."

He was confused and full of doubts. After breakfast, he went to his grandmother's research institute.

The affairs in the capital came to an end, and Ye Tianshui drove to Meihua County with Chen Jun and his two men.

In the late spring and early summer, Taibai Mountain still retains the vitality of spring and is brewing the enthusiasm of summer.

The sky is exceptionally high, deep blue and clear, with a few white clouds drifting slowly and leisurely.

When Ye Tianshui and his companions' car entered the suburbs of Meihua County, they saw the newly built highway, one end of which led to the city and the other end to Wangjiaping Town nestled in the mountains.

As far as the eye can see, there is a long line of people working on the unfinished road.

Most people plant trees along the roadsides.

This was a tree of similar size that Ye Tianshui dug from the mountain and transplanted over with the help of Wu Pingtao.

All materials are sourced locally, so only some labor is required.

"Sir, Master Wu is very efficient. It looks like the road will be open to traffic in another month."

Chen Jun said while looking outside with great interest.

Wu Pingtao and Bi Tianliang were waiting at the gate of the county party committee compound. When they saw the car slowly approaching, they hurried to meet it.

When Ye Tianshui got out of the car, he ran head-on into Wu Pingtao's dark face and sparkling smiling eyes.

"Xiaoshui. Brother Tao."

With outsiders present, the two men just shook hands tightly and shook them a few times.

"Hello, Mr. Ye! Welcome!" Bi Tianliang stood nearby and greeted him warmly.

"Hello, Secretary Bi."

Ye Tianshui let go of Wu Pingtao and shook hands with him.

Lin Hao saluted Ye Tianshui: "Hello, sir!"

"Hello, Secretary Lin."

Ye Tianshui nodded, and in front of Bi Tianliang, their meeting took on an official form.

The group walked towards Wu Pingtao's office. Lin Hao lagged behind and had a fiercely intimate moment with Chen Jun and the others.

"Mr. Ye, County Magistrate Wu, please go to the office and sit for a while. I'll go to the cafeteria to see when we can have dinner."

When they reached the fork in the road, Bi Tianliang said politely.

He knew that Wu Pingtao and Ye Tianshui had something to talk about privately, and it would be inappropriate for him to interrupt.

But it would be impolite not to come and greet them.

Now, he just found an excuse to leave.

Sitting down in Wu Pingtao's office, he looked at Ye Tianshui and said, "Xiaoshui, you've worked hard along the way."

"How can I say I'm working so hard? I see your face has become much darker. Have you been spending all your time on the construction site? I see the project is progressing very quickly."

Ye Tianshui looked at Wu Pingtao's face, which had darkened several shades, and smiled softly.

"According to your suggestion, in addition to recording work points, workers should also be given a free lunch. Just for the free lunch that contains meat and can fill their stomachs, they won't dare to be lazy."

Wu Pingtao explained.

At first, Ye Tianshui hesitated whether to give the workers a meal or a bonus subsidy. Later, when he saw that many people were short of food and clothing at home, he decided to let the workers have enough food so that they would have the strength to work.

Meat dishes are also made from local ingredients. There is plenty of game in the mountains, so we just need to send a few hunters to hunt.

As for food, the price in Jiangnan can now be negotiated, and Ye Tianshui sent trucks to deliver it several times.

It's all rice and flour.

Ye Tianshui smiled and said: "It shows that our decision was right. The road was completed ten days or half a month earlier, and the food money could have been saved.

By the way, how is the Yi family doing now?

Can Yi Haiping's father move his legs normally after treatment?"

Yi Haiping's father's leg was treated in the county hospital at the time. There were no good doctors in the hospital. It was a fracture, a serious injury. Even with good doctors and medical conditions, it might be difficult to fully recover, but there would be no problem working and living normally after recovery.

So Ye Tianshui sent him to the provincial hospital and found a famous orthopedic doctor to treat him.

"The treatment has been very effective. It has been a month since he was taken home. I went to see him a few days ago and he can already walk, do some light housework and cultivate his own land.

After it is well-raised, he will be able to do general farm work, but climbing mountains and hunting may be affected."

Wu Pingtao sighed slightly: "Fortunately, you took prompt action to send him to the provincial hospital. The doctor said that we got him there in time."

With such a result, Ye Tianshui was satisfied:

“He is only forty-five years old, officially in his prime, and after the land is divided, he will be the main laborer of the family.

If Yi Haiping could stay in the army and develop, he would feel at ease.

Next, it was his younger brother Ali. I contacted the best brain surgeon in the world and found an opportunity for him to diagnose the boy and see if he could be cured. "
