Transmigrated & Triumphant: Defying Destiny's Chosen One-Chapter 562 - 65: Another New Car_2
The urge to make money is unstoppable!
...
"Comrade Chu River!"
Chen Changhai sprinted all the way over, only to find the yard empty.
He pushed his bicycle into the yard familiarly, just as he was unloading the things from the basket, Da Dan finally opened the door.
He was wearing a white vest that was no longer so white, and his exposed skin had lightened; he had a military green shoulder bag slung over his shoulder, making him look both spirited and clean.
The bag was square-shaped with a five-pointed star embroidered in the middle.
He puffed up his chest as he walked around the yard in a strange manner, then finally toned down his excitement when he noticed the almost invisible Chen Changhai—
"Uncle Chen, you’re here."
Now that he was here, Chen Changhai’s anxiety seemed to lessen.
Curiously, he asked:
"Da Dan, what are you up to?"
Da Dan stood up straight; he had grown taller in the two months since they’d last seen each other, making him look a bit more composed.
"School starts tomorrow, and Daya made me a school bag. Uncle Chen, isn’t it good-looking?"
It’s beautiful!
Who in the city wouldn’t want such a pretty messenger bag?
Chen Changhai’s thoughts immediately wandered.
"Is making this bag fast?"
He needed to earn money for the bicycle, and also for thread and needles. Chen Changhai was the kind of man who never overlooked either sesame seeds or watermelons.
Da Dan had no idea; he hadn’t even done his accounts this month!
But seeing Chen Changhai sweating profusely, he suddenly remembered—
"I almost forgot, Uncle Chen, you’re here to see the bicycle, right? How about you wash your face and come to the backyard with me? They’re all hiding and playing there."
Hiding and playing?
So mysterious? It must be something amazing!
Chen Changhai hurriedly followed while washing his face.
...
In the spacious backyard, there was a small chicken coop in the corner, surrounded by pumpkin, beans, winter melon, and seemingly a few discreet watermelons.
The gravel was neatly spread on the open space in the yard, and four kids in the same white vest shorts and similar haircuts were indistinguishable as boys or girls.
—This was Chu River’s requirement.
She had heard that in some families the kids going to elementary school were not very hygienic, with lice or fleas, so she made all the kids cut their hair short, making it easier to wash and clean when they came home.
—Originally, she wanted them to shave their heads, but the two girls were so stubborn, they settled for a crew cut instead.
Even so, Yun Baoni cried a bit at night, only to be firmly rebuked by Daya—
"Only being picky after getting enough to eat... How about not cutting it then? Every day after school, I’ll catch lice at the door for you. You can come in after I’m done."
Yun Baoni: !!!
She quickly said, "No, no, my hair wasn’t good before anyway. Let’s cut it."
Compared to lice, hair was trivial.
At this point, the four indistinguishable kids were squatting there. Each had a military green shoulder bag with a red five-pointed star embroidered at different parts.
Chen Changhai thought to himself:
The people in the God of Wealth family are truly something!
The snack dishes Da Dan made were extremely popular, making three to five hundred yuan in these two months.
And Daya, being a seamstress, had earned two to three hundred yuan from their two-month cooperation, almost as much as renowned old tailors.
Look, the military green fabric, he remembered he had it brought back last week!
And now it’s all organized!
Look at the uniformed children, with matching clothes and matching messenger bags. It’s unbelievable that folks in the city wouldn’t follow suit!
He just wondered if it could be made quickly, with school starting soon. Teachers could be more generous with money, and students could take the opportunity to get this and that...
This deal needed to be carefully discussed.
...
As he was pondering, the kids cheered again.
Chen Changhai walked up behind them, only to see a military green object set up in the center of the open space as well.
His breath caught, and he momentarily forgot about white vests and green bags, feeling desperate to rush forward—
"Tank!"
A tank, it was a tank! Who doesn’t love tanks, regardless of being a boy or girl?!
In front was a two-meter large tank, painted in a lush green with patterns!
The person inside lifted the top cover, and he saw—
Gu An was climbing out along the small ladder!
Yes, he finally got his cast removed! His bones had healed!
Although his two legs were still slightly different in thickness, kids recover fast, and it was no longer very noticeable, though his walking was still a bit unsteady in balance.
