Chapter 74 -74: How Can You Rest Assured?
“Don’t forget to also buy Li Bao a bicycle, a sewing machine, and a radio for the family back home. If the money I gave you isn’t enough, just cover it yourself for now, and later I’ll have your mom pay you back.”
As parents, naturally they need to prepare a wedding dowry for their beloved daughter’s marriage, but traveling from Aoli Village to North City is quite a distance. It would undoubtedly be inconvenient to bring the dowry with them,
hence, Captain Kang and his wife discussed and, through Director Wu, managed to obtain a sewing machine coupon, a bicycle coupon, and a radio coupon. It cost a fair amount of money, but neither of the Captain’s eyes even blinked.
Kang Guosheng: “I won’t forget.”
“Then that’s settled. Your big brother and I will be leaving now.”
Having said that, Captain Kang signaled Big Brother Kang to follow, and the two headed towards the ticket checkpoint.
…
“Dad, why are we leaving in such a hurry? And… and Dad, did you forget to hand over the dowry that the family prepared for Li Bao, and that’s why you asked your second son to help us while sending him…
As they boarded the train, Big Brother Kang, seeing no change in Captain Kang’s expression, couldn’t help but voice his doubts.
“It’s the busy farming season, and being the team leader, do you think I can stay away from home? As for whether I forgot to give Li Bao the dowry we prepared at home, that’s not the case.”
Captain Kang gazed through the half-open train window at the people coming and going on the platform and spoke unhurriedly: “After the incident with the Zhou Family, Li Bao has changed a bit. If I had given the dowry directly to her, are you sure she would have accepted it?”
he had never heard anyone mention that department stores in the city sold washing machines, so he felt that he probably wouldn’t be much help and thus didn’t even bring up going to the department store.
After hesitating for a while, Big Brother Kang asked, “Dad, you’re actually still worried about Li Bao, aren’t you?”
“How could I not be?”
Captain Kang’s expression was melancholic: “Your sister has never left home since she was little. Although she’s become more composed than before, she’s still young and rather naive, and I’m afraid she’ll suffer silently without us knowing.”
Feeling somewhat heavy-hearted but still trying to offer reassurance, Big Brother Kang said, “Isn’t Little Wu here? He will help us take good care of Li Bao.”
“Your younger brother has his job to worry about; how much time can he spare to look after Li Bao? Anyway, every fledgling will soar in the skies one day. No matter what, your sister has grown up, and we need to learn to let go, letting her face the path she has to walk by herself.”
