Chapter 14
Zhao Dayong remained unmoved and said stubbornly, "I don't care! You will always be my leader, and I will always be your guard."
Shen Ao sighed in his heart.
During the year he was sent to the farm, only Zhao Dayong cared about him. If Zhao Dayong had not been transferred with him to this small county town in Shandong Province and had not come to the farm every few days to bring him food, he would probably have starved to death.
Zhao Dayong took out an aluminum lunch box from his cloth bag. As soon as he opened the lid, steaming hot food and the aroma of meat filled his nose.
"Hurry, hurry! The kitchen staff has just cooked some beef. I brought it specially for you. Eat it quickly while my two brothers are keeping an eye on Sui Bo so he can't do anything naughty."
"Thank you."
After Shen Ao thanked him, he didn't bother to be polite with Zhao Dayong. He took out his chopsticks, picked up the meat and started eating.
Reformed elements like them who were sent to the farm were only given a monthly ration of 20 kilograms of food, which was equivalent to only 7 taels of food per day. In addition, the farm sometimes held production competitions, so working 12 hours a day was considered a minimum. The farm work they did far exceeded their physical limits. This amount of food was not enough for a woman with a small appetite, let alone a big and strong man like him.
In addition, Sui Bo would take the lead in teasing these labor camp inmates from time to time, and some people with poor physical fitness could not bear it at all. They either became sick from exhaustion or died of exhaustion.
If he had been really honest and only relied on the food distributed by the farm, and ignored the food brought by Zhao Dayong, he would have starved to death long ago. How could he have the strength to work and grow muscles?
After a while, Shen Ao finished his meal, put down his lunch box, and looked up and said, "Dayong, I want to ask you for a favor."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Dayong's eyes lit up. "Just tell me what you need! As your guard, I'm supposed to take care of your daily life. How can I ask for your help?"
Shen Ao was already used to Zhao Dayong's words. Rather than spending time correcting him without any effect, he simply said what he was thinking. "I'll deposit the money with you. Find a way to buy a set of three-turn and one-ring. Bring me the rest of the money."
It has been almost ten years since he joined the army. At the beginning, he was an ordinary soldier with a monthly allowance of only 6 yuan, and later he became a regular regimental commander with a monthly allowance of 76 yuan.
Although my allowance was stopped during the year I was sent to the farm, I had saved a lot of money from the previous allowances. I have been in the army for these years and have had almost no expenses except for 45 cents a day for food.
The three hundred yuan he gave to Bai Ying was also taken from his allowance, which was forced upon him by Zhao Dayong when he was just transferred to the farm, saying that it could save her life at a critical moment in case of emergency.
Apart from these three hundred yuan, Zhao Dayong should still have about five thousand yuan.
After suffering on the farm for such a long time, Shen Ao finally realized that the greatest pain in life is not suffering, but suffering even though you have money.
Instead of hoping to be able to spend the money legitimately in the future after redress, it is better to spend the money quickly.
This saves him from being trapped on the farm and feeling depressed to death, and then having to worry about whether the money he earned with his life will be eaten by rats.
"puff!"
Zhao Dayong was drinking water from the kettle, but when he heard this, the water in his mouth sprayed out.
He looked at Shen Ao in disbelief, his eyes wide as bells. "Isn't the three turns and one ring used as a betrothal gift? What do you want this for?"
Shen Ao said calmly, "Get married."
"What?!" Zhao Dayong was completely mad. "Who are you going to marry? Which lady came out of nowhere to pluck you, this flower from the sky?"
Shen Ao looked speechless, "...In short, you don't know him."
"How can I know you if you don't tell me?"
As he spoke, Zhao Dayong recalled the stunning glimpse he had caught of Bai Ying at the farm. He slapped his thigh and said, "I see. That lady must be the doctor from the nearby production brigade!"
