Military husband hasn't returned home for two years? He reads his daughter's heartfelt wor
Chapter 24 Handing over financial power
"Comrade Li Wanqing, please rest for a bit. I have something to say to you," Cheng Baichuan said.
Li Wanqing showed no sign of stopping what she was doing. "Let's just say it this way. I'm listening."
Comrade Li Wanqing?
Should she also call him Comrade Cheng Baichuan?
She had already heard her daughter's little scheme perfectly well.
The little one still leans more towards her mother and knows that the money should be given to her mother to manage.
Since Cheng Baichuan hadn't mentioned it before, she didn't feel comfortable bringing it up herself.
She had a lot of things to buy this time, and she didn't have any coupons on her.
Cheng Baichuan patted the stool next to him, "Sit down first, I'll tidy up together in a bit."
Although he still can't stand for very long, he's much better than he was at the beginning.
Helping with some simple tidying up is no problem.
Li Wanqing put down what she was holding and sat down on the stool. "Speak."
Cheng Baichuan took out a tin box from behind him and handed it to him with a mysterious look on his face.
"open to take a look!"
Li Wanqing chuckled to herself. Did this guy's soldiers know how naive he was?
Li Wanqing took the box and opened it. Inside were some cash, a bankbook, and several stacks of tickets and certificates.
Although she had been prepared, Li Wanqing was still surprised.
I didn't open the passbook, but judging from the appearance, there should be several hundred yuan in cash inside.
The tickets and certificates were incredibly varied, containing all sorts of things.
Seeing Li Wanqing's shocked expression, Cheng Baichuan felt a strange sense of pride.
“The money and tickets here were deposited a few years ago. Xiao Wu replaced the tickets with the ones with the latest dates.”
"I'll take you to the logistics department to collect this month's allowance, and it will all be yours from now on."
Li Wanqing paused slightly, "Leave it all to me?"
Cheng Baichuan nodded. "You're my wife, so of course I should give you the money and tickets."
"Aren't you sending them home anymore?" Li Wanqing asked again, since he used to send 101 back every month.
Cheng Baichuan thought for a moment and said calmly, "Since we've already severed ties, there's no need for that."
Li Wanqing was secretly pleased, and she also felt that it was unnecessary.
"Just wondering, how much is your allowance?"
Cheng Baichuan smiled and explained, "I'm still at the battalion level now, and my monthly allowance is 101. After the position is adjusted, it should be 141."
"In addition to the allowance, there are also some extra task subsidies, or bonuses for winning various competitions."
"I've just come back and haven't officially rejoined the team yet, so the latter two are basically not included."
Cheng Baichuan thought that Li Wanqing would at least be happy to hear this.
Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, her expression became a little strange.
"How much allowance did you send home every month before?" Li Wanqing asked.
Cheng Baichuan didn't quite understand why she asked that, but he still answered honestly.
"It's 20 yuan a month, but I don't need to send it anymore."
"Do you know how much you sent home every month during the two years you were in a coma?" Li Wanqing asked again.
"Didn't you send it?" Cheng Baichuan asked, puzzled. So that's why Li Wanqing and Nuonuo were being bullied at home?
But he clearly made all the arrangements, didn't he?
"Don't worry about it. I'll go to the logistics department to check in a bit. Maybe I didn't explain things clearly at the time."
Li Wanqing looked at him speechlessly, "No need, you've explained it very clearly, so the logistics department sent all your allowances to your parents."
Luckily I brought some back, otherwise I wouldn't have had the money to come find you.
Cheng Baichuan: ......
No wonder he felt that Li Wanqing looked at him with the kind of care one would give to someone with intellectual disabilities; it turns out he was taking the blame for the logistics department.
Cheng Baichuan frowned slightly; it seemed that the logistics department really wasn't to blame.
He now remembers that the task was urgent at the time, so he just told them to "send the allowance" and ran away.
I didn't even tell them how much to send!
Later, he was injured and fell into a coma, and the logistics department naturally had nowhere to ask him.
Cheng Baichuan's hands, which were resting on his lap, gradually clenched into fists. They had taken so much money from him and had almost driven Li Wanqing and her daughter to their deaths!
"It won't happen again. From now on, all my money will be for you and Nuonuo."
Li Wanqing blinked as she looked at him, wondering what had triggered this.
However, as a man, she felt that Cheng Baichuan was quite good.
"Alright then! If you ever find someone you really like in the future, let's part ways amicably for the sake of the money."
“However, let’s make it clear beforehand that Nuonuo is mine,” Li Wanqing added.
She didn't want Nuonuo to end up having to live under her stepmother's thumb for the rest of her life.
Cheng Baichuan's lips twitched. What was this woman thinking?
"I don't have anyone I like, only you and your daughter!"
"Just because it's not there now doesn't mean it won't be in the future," Li Wanqing said, choking back a sob.
"...There isn't one now, and there won't be one in the future," Cheng Baichuan shouted, raising his voice.
Li Wanqing looked at him blankly and muttered under her breath, "So what if you don't have it? Why are you making such a fuss?"
Fortunately, this is a detached courtyard. If it were an apartment building, the whole building would have heard it!
Cheng Baichuan: ......
Oh well, let her think what she wants. She'll know eventually that what he said was true.
"Wow!" Li Wanqing exclaimed, "Cheng Baichuan, you're so rich!"
The fact that there was over 3000 yuan in the savings account was a complete surprise to her.
Li Wanqing held the bankbook and looked at him with eyes full of admiration, which gave Cheng Baichuan a little comfort.
"It's not a lot. Anyway, I don't have many expenses in the army, so I saved it all."
“Originally there were more than these, but in previous years... we received some subsidies for the families of fallen comrades.”
At this point, Cheng Baichuan's expression turned solemn and sad.
Having chosen to join the army, everyone is prepared to sacrifice themselves at any time, and he is no exception.
But whenever he faced the faces of those who had lost their children or their husbands and families, he couldn't help but think...
Is it possible that if I work a little harder and become a little stronger, I can protect more people, including my comrades-in-arms who fight alongside me?
He couldn't imagine what would have happened to Li Wanqing and her daughter if he hadn't been able to come back two years ago.
Li Wanqing raised her hand and waved it in front of Cheng Baichuan's eyes. "I'm asking you a question."
Cheng Baichuan looked bewildered. "What are you asking?"
"I asked you how much you allocate to subsidize your comrades' families each month?" Li Wanqing repeated, and the guy actually drifted off into thought.
Cheng Baichuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he held up a "three". "At first, it was 10 yuan a month, but after I was promoted to battalion level, it was 30 yuan a month."
Li Wanqing sighed, "Let's keep it this way from now on. You can decide on the specific arrangements yourself."
Cheng Baichuan stared blankly, "You're not angry? You still support me?"
"Why am I angry?" Li Wanqing's expression was calm, and she certainly didn't seem angry.
"They all sacrificed themselves to protect their country and are heroes worthy of respect."
He got up and continued packing, leaving Cheng Baichuan looking stunned.
Cheng Baichuan gently clutched his chest; the thunderous pounding of his heart left him somewhat bewildered.
He had heard these words before, but he had never felt such a shock as he did now.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and help tidy up!" Li Wanqing shouted.
......
Cheng Baichuan had no choice but to put aside his doubts and start packing.
