Chapter 249 Live for Yourself
Song Dachui didn't say anything. He remembered the time when he was cheated.
He didn't think at all that the prince was the kind of good man that his elder brother and sister-in-law said he was.
God knows how much he wanted to turn around and run when he saw the prince and his wife at the city gate that day.
But he and Li Niang lived very well here. There were no strange looks, no gossip, and their days were peaceful and warm.
After that, he saw Song Dadao in the team again, and he gave up the idea of leaving even more.
Let's take it one step at a time. The world is too chaotic now and there's no peace anywhere.
"By the way, the prince wants to buy the drugs we have at a high price. You can join in the effort. It can be considered as a source of income." Song Dadao mentioned it suddenly.
Seeing that his younger brother was too tired to set up a stall and sell tofu pudding every day, he thought of increasing the income for the couple.
Song Dachui choked, and out of the corner of his eye he saw Li Niang's hand casually stroking her belly, and he nodded.
……
……
While everyone was working together to build the road, another group of people began to build the "Second General Hospital" in Funing County.
Yes, Pan Yingying finally decided to arrange a hospital in Funing County.
It used to be a "slave town" and basically 90 percent of the people there had some kind of illness. Building a hospital there would be convenient for the people of that county and would also slightly improve the local economy.
After all, if you go to other places for medical treatment, you still need food and accommodation, right?
At the same time as the "Second General Hospital" was started, the "First General Hospital" in Ningyuan District and the "First Military Hospital" in Kaiyang County were also started.
Marquis Wu'an attached great importance to the military hospital and so rushed back to Kaiyang early to keep an eye on it personally, for fear that the workers would not be dedicated.
This time he finally remembered the 201 people who were still "exchange students" in Taoyuan Army, and took them back with him when he left.
But he also did not forget the people he had left at the "exchange meeting" that day. Not only did these people have to write a 500-word self-criticism each, they also had to lead other Wu'an troops in training according to the Taoyuan Army's model, and they also had to lend a hand when building roads.
It was really miserable, with bruises on my face every day.
They also feel wronged. The Taoyuan Army is trained like that, and the brothers just grab them and beat them. If you have the guts, go beat the Taoyuan Army!
Following the great harvest, the entire Northwest is busy again, but there are more smiles on everyone's face.
……
……
After listening to Long Er's report on the progress of the road construction, Pan Yingying nodded with satisfaction and said, "Once the road is repaired and the hospital is on track, I plan to let the doctors provide free medical services for seven days. Let's notify the caravan to collect some medicinal materials first."
Long Er nodded slightly and took out a small notebook from his bag to write it down.
"That's all for now." Pan Yingying took a sip of tea. "By the way, how's Xiao'e doing?"
Lin Xiao'e is the county magistrate there, and I don't know if she has encountered any difficulties.
Speaking of Lin Xiao'e, Long Er curled his lips, "When she heard that the girl was coming back, she wrote a letter to apologize, saying that she was too busy in the county and couldn't leave, so she couldn't come to greet her."
Pan Yingying said, "Hmm," "Has the road to Funing County been repaired? I'll go to Funing County this afternoon to take a look."
Long Er nodded, "Who are you going to take with you, young lady?"
Pan Yingying thought about it and decided that Chaosheng and I would just go on a tour around the area.
Long Er disagreed, "Why don't we take Honglian and Lumei with us? With them around, the people at home will feel at ease." Yu Chaosheng was combing Batian's hair nearby. He was unhappy when he heard this. Will his family feel at ease if he's with him?
Seeing that he was about to speak with his eyebrows raised, Pan Yingying quickly and firmly rejected Long Er's proposal, "No, Chaosheng and Batian will protect me, and I am also capable of protecting myself."
Long Er also reacted and nodded slightly.
The girl was too petite and the boy-in-law was too thin, so he always subconsciously forgot that their fighting power was not inferior to his.
After Long Er left, Yu Chaosheng threw the big comb to the ground, came over, hugged Pan Yingying's arm, and leaned his head on her shoulder to act coquettishly.
"I used to be able to do whatever I wanted and go wherever I wanted, but now I can't do this or that, and I can't go anywhere. I feel less and less free."
Pan Yingying sighed and raised her hand to touch his face. "You should govern your country. I am the prince now and you are the queen. The people under your rule are our responsibility. You see, the northwest is already developing rapidly. How can you bear to give up halfway?"
Yu Chaosheng was silent.
What he wanted was always simple: to be with Pan Yingying for the rest of his life.
Pan Yingying wanted to be the empress and mend this devastated world, but what could he do? He could only sacrifice his life to accompany her!
"Okay, then you have to promise me that you will secretly travel every year in the future." He held down Pan Yingying's hand that was touching his face, and interlocked his fingers with that fair little hand, "Otherwise I will make a scene."
Pan Yingying laughed dumbly, raised her hand, and kissed the back of his hand, "Okay."
……
……
In the afternoon, Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng each changed into inconspicuous clothes and went out, and Batian was taken into his room in the space to rest.
Fat Tiger actually wanted to drink the water that could make him stronger, but his parents didn't allow him and made him stay in the room alone to play with toys.
It hugged the little tiger that could be completely stepped on with one foot, and was so angry that it was gasping for breath. It decided to unilaterally go into a cold war with its father and mother... for the whole afternoon!
The two did not take a carriage. Yu Chaosheng rode a bicycle and Pan Yingying sat on the back seat, holding her lace-edged straw hat with one hand and holding Yu Chaosheng's waist with the other. The two leisurely walked out of the city from the west gate and walked along the wide concrete road towards Funing County.
On the way, I passed by Cheng Hai and his group.
The first thing Cheng Hai did when he returned to Taoyuan City was to go to the grocery store and buy the bicycle he had been dreaming about day and night.
Seeing this, others also joined the car-buying team, especially Liang Ye. He not only bought a bicycle, but also a small tricycle so that he could take his wife and children out in the future.
They just went to race.
Horse racing is not popular in Taoyuan City nowadays, but car racing is popular. Especially I heard that there will be a "bicycle marathon" after the road is repaired, starting from Taoyuan City, riding a bicycle to Funing County, and then returning to Taoyuan City from Funing.
During this period, people who have bicycles and free time will make an appointment to ride on the cement road, and occasionally they will compete to see who can ride the fastest.
After experiencing the life-and-death situation, Cheng Hai has become much more open-minded. Before, he always wanted to protect his young master and take down Dayu as soon as possible because he would not live long.
But when he was recuperating, Pan Yingying had a talk with him and told him not to push himself too hard, that he still had plenty of time to enjoy life, enjoy the future, and live for himself.
The young bird has grown into an eagle, and she will eventually soar into the sky on her own.
All these old people can do is to protect the foundation she laid.
The task of expanding territory should be left to the young people.
So, he went to Taoyuan Primary School to be a teacher, ready to teach his skills to the younger generation. In his spare time, he rode bicycles with like-minded friends, and his life was wonderful.
