Chapter 322: Give To Get
The military doctor came before Ye Jian arrived home. He seemed to know that Ye Jian would come back today and waited for her at her house.
When the military doctor talked about Captain Xia, Ye Jian knew that he was the one who arranged everything. He wasn’t here but his presence could be felt everywhere.
“You’re being too polite. This is what I should do.” The military doctor arranged his medicine box as he said, “Ye Jian, don’t come to the military unit these few days. The soldiers in the military unit don’t know how to be gentle. You’ll also be starting school in a few days. Have a good rest at home.”
He started teasing her, “You disappeared for one month so the regiment commander and the political commissars kept asking me why you didn’t visit the military unit during this period of time. They wondered if you got scared by the scolding you received at that time when you barbecued a wild chicken secretly. Even though I always stayed at the infirmary, they came to find me once.”
“It’s not good that the regiment commander is looking for me. I don’t dare to go back to the military unit too. That was my first time stealing a chicken but I got discovered.” Ye Jian pulled down her T-shirt. She smiled brightly, “When the regiment commander forgets about this, I’ll go back to the military unit. Thank you for your hard work today.”
Everyone in the military unit knew Ye Jian. The little girl could bear more hardships than a man. Her shooting exceeded all the other soldiers on average. She was someone who was on par with the top soldiers. This little girl was fated to be a soldier. Even the cooks knew her.
The military doctor laughed. “I’ll definitely bring your words to him. Oh right, I almost forgot about this.”
He took out an envelope from his medicine box. “This is your pension. You are the child of a soldier. You’ll get a pension every year until you graduate from university.”
“There is 2000RMB inside. It’s not a lot. It’s only enough for your daily expenses.” The military doctor spoke faster when he talked about the money. He was afraid that Ye Jian would reject him. “The political commissar said that if you have any opinions, you can look for him personally. What he meant is that with his years of experience in handling all kinds of soldiers, he will be able to tackle a little girl like you.”
Ye Jian knew that they were doing this for her sake. She took the envelope and smiled. “Okay. I will not disappoint the guidance of the military.” They didn’t need her gratitude. She just needed to work harder so that she wouldn’t disappoint them.
“We all know that you’re a good child. All the best.” The military doctor was happy when he saw her taking the money directly. The military unit helped her to get this money so he definitely wished that she would take it. If she rejected it, the military unit wouldn’t help her the next time.
This little girl has great situational awareness. No wonder the regiment commander has high hopes of her.
Ye Jian needed this money. Her school fees for the high school were dismissed and the school gave her 100RMB each month. However, she still needed to pay for the cost of learning materials. If she wanted to finish high school in one and a half years, she would need numerous materials and mock test papers.
“Don’t feel burdened. This is because the military unit recognizes you and wants to groom you.” After the military doctor left, Grandpa Gen looked at Ye Jian amiably. Her eyes were slightly red. “You’re a good child. Don’t feel stressed by the money. Take it as a form of motivation and work hard. This is the hopes the regiment commander and the political commissar have for you.”
“The pension that was passed to Ye Zhifan must have been spent by Sun Dongqing. She might even say that she spent her own money on you too. Hence, I never mentioned anything about it. Don’t think about it too. Just know what they did.”
