Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Chapter 1295 Extra Chapter 1: The Children's Future

After Fu Wan returned from her sea voyage, she learned from Ye Xiaocui, the eldest daughter of Fu, that Sun Shaoping and Zhao Gang had been there.

I thought they were just there to tell me the good news that I had won the National Model Worker and March 8th Red Banner Pacesetter awards, but Sun Shao-ping came again the next day.

"Comrade Xiao Fu, it's really not easy to run into you. This old man had to make two trips!"

Sun Shao-ping sat in the main room of the Fu family's old house, holding a bowl of hot tea and sighing.

Upon hearing this, Fu Wan smiled sheepishly and explained.

"Haha, sir, it's just the beginning of spring, so I'm taking the fleet out to try my luck!"

"Oh, if you need to contact me, just give me a call or leave a message. Why do you have to run around like this?"

"But sir, you didn't come here just to give me those two honors, did you?"

Fu Wan poured some more tea for Sun Shao Ping. She wasn't stupid; Sun Shao Ping was a very busy man. Although the camp wasn't particularly far from Fu Family Village, he had come twice specifically for this reason, so he probably had other things to discuss with her.

Upon hearing this, Sun Shaoping burst into laughter and exclaimed, "That's why I still prefer talking to Comrade Xiao Fu. I did have something else to discuss with you."

He paused but didn't continue. Instead, he picked up the kettle on the table and poured some tea for Fu Wan.

This action gave Fu Wan a bad feeling. Sun Shaoping was not the type to be coy; the old leader always said what he meant. What was going on?

Fu Wan was puzzled. After a long while, Sun Shaoping put down his teacup and solemnly said, "Comrade Fu, I'm here today because I have something important to discuss with you."

"what's up?"

Sun Shaoping glanced outside the courtyard, cleared his throat, and said, "Is Comrade Xiao Fu's daughter doing well at the camp school?"

"is acceptable."

Fu Wan was immediately confused. She had made countless predictions in her mind before Sun Shao Ping spoke, but she never expected that the topic would veer towards Fu Ling as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Boss, why are you suddenly bringing up my daughter?"

Sun Shao-ping smiled and continued, "Does Comrade Xiao Fu know that your daughter is invincible at school?"

"Huh? Unbeatable in the world?" Fu Wan's pupils dilated in shock. "She got into a fight with someone?"

"I didn't hear the teacher mention this!"

"It wasn't a fight."

Sun Shaoping waved his hand and explained, "The camp school held a youth selection competition a while ago, and Comrade Fu... Fu Ling performed exceptionally well."

"A youth selection competition?"

Fu Wanpin sensed something was wrong and looked at Sun Shaoping in disbelief.

"Boss, what is the purpose of this competition?"

"Selecting promising young soldiers."

"The camp will join forces with other units to organize a training camp in order to cultivate better and more versatile soldiers, who will be the successors of us in the future."

Sun Shaoping looked at Fu Wan and explained. Upon hearing this, Fu Wan's expression changed, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

She looked at Sun Shao-ping incredulously, "Boss, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

If Fu Wan still didn't understand what Sun Shao-ping meant by saying this, then she had wasted her two lives.

Sun Shao-ping came here specifically today, most likely because of that selection competition, and he's taken a liking to Fu Ling!

"Boss, you must be joking with me!"

Fu Wan stood up immediately in a panic, "My daughter is only a few years old, how can she be a successor!"

Sun Shaoping shook his head, signaling Fu Wan not to get agitated.

“Comrade Xiao Fu, I know she’s young, but she’s smart. Only ten children in the whole school passed the selection exam, and your daughter and Qin Mingzhu are the two youngest.”

"What? There's also a pearl?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Wan was completely taken aback. "Boss, I sent them to school to learn knowledge and grow up happily, not to participate in any selection competitions!"

“They are still so young, and I can’t control their choices in the future, but right now, leader, you can call me unenlightened if you want, but I don’t want them to become any kind of successors.”

After he finished speaking, Ye Xiaocui, who was standing at the door, couldn't help but nod. Only Fu Ming and Boss Fu felt regret.

Sun Shao-ping clearly meant for the children to join the army, which was Fu Ming and Fu Lao-da's dream. But Fu Wan was right; the children were too young. Thinking about the hard training they would have to endure day after day, exposed to the wind and sun, Fu Ming and Fu Lao-da couldn't bear to part with them.

Sun Shao-ping had guessed early on that Fu Wan would disagree, otherwise he wouldn't have come in person.

Because not only did Fu Wan disagree, but Principal Feng of the camp school also disagreed.

The problem is, considering Fu Ling's performance in the selection competition, Sun Shao-ping really doesn't want to miss out on this promising talent.

Moreover, according to the organization's plan, these people are to be trained from a young age.

"Comrade Xiao Fu, don't worry, listen to me."

Sun Shao-ping said slowly, "Our selection this time was actually a decision made by higher-ups."

He sighed, "You know, we're all getting old. If it weren't for the country's needs, I would have retired long ago."

But the country is at a critical juncture, beset by internal and external troubles, and many people want to take advantage of the situation.

Our selection process aims to cultivate a group of outstanding reserve forces to continue defending the country and its people.

"Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu, though the youngest, are the most outstanding. Especially Fu Ling; such a young child, she only saw it once, and she was able to assemble our assault rifle—and the thing is, in such a short time."

"And even if she falls during the selection process, she can get up as quickly as possible and keep going. She even carried another injured classmate back to the finish line."

"Comrade Xiao Fu, let me tell you this: your daughter is a born soldier!"

These words stunned Fu Wan, while Ye Xiaocui suddenly realized what was going on.

"No wonder when she came back a couple of days ago, I asked her why she had scrapes on her hands, and she told me that she had fallen at school!"

When Ye Xiaocui mentioned this, Fu Wan also remembered that she had applied gentian violet to Fu Ling that day!

"Boss, I don't know about the future, but right now, I just want her to have a good childhood."

Fu Wan insisted on her opinion, but Sun Shaoping smiled and looked at Fu Ling, who was peeking in from the doorway.

"Comrade Xiao Fu, I understand that you feel sorry for your child, but why don't you ask your child's opinion first?"

After saying this, he waved to the spirit at the door, and soon, two children ran in one after the other.

Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu were clearly not seeing Sun Shao Ping for the first time. The two of them straightened up and gave Sun Shao Ping a proper salute.

"Hello, Chief!"

"Hello!"

Sun Shao-ping returned the greeting with a smile. For some reason, Fu Wan looked at Sun Shao-ping at this moment as if he were a kidnapper who was coaxing children.

Fu Wan pulled Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu over, "Come here, I want to ask you, what happened to the injuries on your bodies a few days ago?"
