Chapter 349: It’s good to be alive

Lin Weiguo remained silent.

Taking good care of his own little family, having his wife be filial to his parents, that’s also considered thoughtful, right?

Seeing his daughter-in-law and Tangtang chatting together, Lin Fu hurriedly brought the conversation back on topic.

"Tangtang, your Brother Weiguo sent you a letter just for you, take a look first," he said.

As he spoke, he handed the letter to Lin Tang.

Curious about what his son had written to Tangtang, they all gathered around.

Upon reading part of it, a bright light flashed in Lin Tang’s eyes.

It was as if there were stars shining inside.

A rare broad smile appeared on her face.

"It’s good news!" she declared, her face alight with joy.

Seeing his niece so delighted, Lin Fu spoke for everyone, "Tangtang, what’s the good news?"

Could it be that Weiguo has found a romantic partner?!

That can’t be right, though.

They say that where they are, not even a bird would pass by, not to mention a female mosquito, so how could he possibly find a partner?

Thinking about his eldest son who has had such a hard time, Lin Fu felt both proud and worried.

All eyes within the Lin family were focused on Lin Tang now.

Lin Tang stopped smiling and said, "... Brother Weiguo wrote that he saw Uncle Heping."

Uncle Heping?

The Lin family were all a bit slow to react.

Uncle Heping, the one called Heping that Tangtang knew, was Xiao Heping, the one in the village who had gone off to join the army.

Lin Fu’s lips trembled slightly, and he asked in astonishment, "Tang, Tangtang, are you talking about... Xiao Heping?"

But, Heping, didn’t he... sacrifice himself?

Could it be...

Lin Tang nodded, "Yes, that’s Uncle Heping.

Uncle Heping didn’t sacrifice himself, he has been away on missions all these years, and Brother Weiguo says in the letter that Uncle Heping will be returning soon.

Um... the letter was sent a month ago, calculating the time, Uncle Heping should be back soon."

Mrs. Yang will finally be reunited with her son; how wonderful!!

Lin Fu paused for a moment, then his face broke into a smile.

He slapped his thigh.

"Good, good, Heping is coming back alive, that’s really great!"

Gao Ping also smiled broadly, "Indeed, it’s great news. If Auntie Yang knew, imagine how happy she would be."

Thinking about Auntie Yang’s advanced age, Gao Ping worried that revealing the news outright might be too much for the elderly woman to handle.

"Is it confirmed? Can we tell Auntie Yang about this?"

Lin Tang didn’t overthink it and said plainly:

"Uncle Heping was injured and won’t be able to go back to the battlefield, he will probably retire from military service. I think we should tell Mrs. Yang in advance."

Brother Weiguo mentioned in the letter that during a mission, they came across Xiao Heping, who was severely injured.

It was thanks to the potion she sent that they were able to save him.

But his injuries were too severe, and his leg was badly damaged, so he had to step down.

Giving Mrs. Yang a heads-up will also spare her from being startled when Heping suddenly returns."

Gao Ping nodded, "Okay, I’ll go talk to Auntie Yang a bit later."

Lin Fu sighed, "... it’s good as long as he’s alive."

Just like his hopes for Weiguo, it would be best if he could return completely whole.

... Regardless of missing arms or legs, being alive is what matters.

After all, that’s the battlefield!

Gao Ping thought of her own eldest son, and her eyes began to tear up once again.

Not wanting to dampen everyone’s mood, she shifted her focus.

"... The main household is also planning to build a few brick houses.

Weiguo has sent back quite a bit of money these past years, and I’ve been saving it.

His father and I have been thinking of building him his own place.

No matter when he returns, we have to prepare a place for him to live," she said.

A few years ago, when the family was in a tough spot, it was thanks to the allowance of the eldest son that they could breathe more easily.

However, she kept a record of all the allowance used.

The daughter has long been married off.

The second and third sons also had a stable income.

She had set aside some money for Weiguo.

Both Baoguo and Aiguo knew about it, and the brothers had nothing to say.

As for Guo Xiu, the only daughter-in-law who had an objection, no one cared about her opinion.

If Guo Xiu lived her life well, all was well, but if she dared to make a fuss? No one would pamper her!

Lin Tang looked at his cousins Lin Baoguo, and Lin Aiguo.

They appeared indifferent, as if they had already guessed this would happen.

There was no dissatisfaction.

Li Xiuli also glanced at the two brothers subconsciously.

She was immediately relieved.

They were all conscientious.

"Elder sister-in-law has thought everything through, indeed a house should be built for Weiguo. Whether he lives in it or not, at least he should have one," Li Xiuli said.

As they were talking, Lin Tang was puzzled by something in the letter.

Lin Weiguo had used the medicinal remedy Lin Tang sent to Xiao Heping, which not only stopped the bleeding quickly but also facilitated the patient’s rapid recovery. It had caught the attention of the military doctors in the army.

The military doctors reported to senior leadership, and the leaders took it very seriously.

They went specifically to ask Lin Weiguo, hence the questions about the medicinal remedy written in the letter.

In fact, if the remedy were made into an oral potion, it would be even more effective.

However, carrying a potion was not convenient, so Lin Tang made it for external use.

She hadn’t expected Brother Weiguo would use it so soon.

After all, that remedy was not from an official source.

Who would trust a remedy made by a young girl to be effective?

It was her initial intent to give her cousin something for self-defense.

What she hadn’t expected was that the supplies on the other side would be so scarce.

Even life-saving medicine was lacking!

It was used directly.

Lin Lu caught a glimpse of his daughter’s odd expression.

After some thought, he asked, "Tangtang, did your cousin say anything else?"

The people who were talking immediately stopped and all looked at Lin Tang.

"It’s not a big deal," Lin Tang paused, then said, "Didn’t I send some of the medicinal remedy I made to Brother Weiguo? I originally intended it for emergency purposes.

I didn’t expect that the medicine would be in such short supply, and they directly used it on Uncle Heping.

The army thought highly of the remedy, so Brother Weiguo wrote to ask me some questions..."

Actually, Lin Weiguo had been very conservative in his letter.

The military doctors saw the remedy almost as a miracle cure and praised it immensely.

"What? You sent medicine to your Brother Weiguo? We never heard you mention it," Gao Ping was thoroughly surprised by this news.

When others do good deeds, they can’t wait to let everyone know.

But their Lin Family’s Tangtang always liked to work quietly, without a single word.

If it weren’t for Weiguo’s letter with questions, she probably wouldn’t have planned to say anything.

Lin Tang said with a smile, "It’s not a big deal, there’s nothing to talk about.

As long as my aunt doesn’t blame me for meddling, it was all good sending medication without any approvals to Brother Weiguo."

She has always revered soldiers.

Moreover, when the soldier is their own kin, of course, she would put in more effort.

Gao Ping affectionately took Lin Tang’s hand and said with a smile, "Why would I not know the value of a good deed? It’s delightful to me that you keep Brother Weiguo in your thoughts."

Having more people in the family care about Weiguo would make him value his own life more.

Lin Fu, being a man, was more rational after all.

The question he asked was to the point.

"Tangtang, what exactly did your Brother Weiguo write in his letter? Was he asking about that medicine?"

Lin Tang thought that it wasn’t just about asking; he had left her a difficult problem.

She hadn’t anticipated that the medicine would be so scarce over there.

In the extremely adverse environment, some soldiers had no medicine to use, and military doctors could only watch helplessly.

That feeling of powerlessness is something those who have never faced it wouldn’t understand.

Just thinking about those young heroes, who had left their homes and erected walls with their flesh and blood, mostly just come of age, gave Lin Tang a pain in her heart.
