79."Bull****！" Cai snarled，pouring his anger out on his son，"That bastard cared nothing but his trees，spending the better part of a year working in the deep contracting woods，totally regardless of our folks' livelihood.But for your grandpa，grandma and your ill-fated mom，we would be still stuck in the earthquake-resistant tent." Facing the harsh words，Xiwa showed not a bit of eeriness and retorted agitatedly，"Grandpa，you often tell me to aim high and consider the general situation.And I regard you as my role model.But now you care only for yourself，unable to make out what matters more.As the saying goes，"Strong youths mean a powerful nation." Also，my sage once followed，"The tree thrives only when the woods get flourishing." Education should be put before domestic things！Everybody knows it，you don't！What an old fool you are now！"Xiuxiu，hearing the aggressive words，jumped to seal off Xiwa's mouth and scolded，"You fool boy must stop！Stop your nonsense！" Yet，Xiwa was reinforced by his grandma."Let go of him，let him denounce the Old Fool" shouted her at Xiuxi.Cai followed his wife，his heart aching for Xiwa，"Move your hand off his mouth！Let him speak！" Xiwa was then uncovered of his mouth，twittered again，"Grandpa！You have won for nearly your life，as you said.But what have the victories brought to you？Why daren't you afford a single lose？Just let Huang take it！Ok？Fellow villagers will not laugh at you for your doing good！At worst，you can treat them all the braised pork and then stay far from them.It's no big deal..." "You got it right！Boy！Carpenter Mao！Take your tools and let's go to fit doors！" Cai cut in out loud.
80.In the lamp light of the newly-built campus，Lieutenant Wang was still seen to be tamping and bricking over the ground with the soldiers till late at night.Deeply moved by the scenario，Cai uttered his gratitude incessantly to the painstaking soldiers，sobs choked him."Grandpa！Grandpa！Mao Da Dasaid the doors take the same brand and same size！..." Xiwa ran yelling out excitedly afar all the way to Cai，"They are exactly alike！Exactly！"Listening to the shouts，feverishly，Cai took his cell phone out from his pocket and got it through to Xiuxiu，"Be quick to send for Huode and Duode before they are off work.I just saw some other motor-tricycles carrying sands.Take on more to transport the doors，one by one and carefully to the school，in case the paint is crashed off.Also，you should send for more craftsmen to dismantle and install the doors respectively.And the classroom doors must be in good place right before the day break." "Dad，bear a light mind！After knowing of your intention，Huode and Duode have been waiting here for your assignment.I will set to have the door dismantled and transported right now！" replied Xiuxiu.Less than a quarter following the call it was that the corps led by Huode and Duode were seen carrying the doors into the school but on their backs instead of on motor-tricycles.Duode explained，"Motor-tricycles will most probably have the paint rubbed up and cause damages to the doors during transportation.Considering safety and convenience，we've thus decided to carry the doors on our backs，one for each." Looking at the hard-working and heavily-sweating Duode，Cai thought to himself，"How could the geezer Huang in any way foster such a good guy？He's really done a good job！"With the concerted efforts，the classroom doors were fitted properly on the midnight that day.Xiwa dashed here and there feverishly at the campus yelling out to anybody he came across，"Tomorrow we will be studying in the new classrooms！"
81.Once again，Cai held tightly the hands of Lieutenant Wang，his voice quivering with excitement，"But for your great help，our primary school could not have been put to use so soon.Many thanks！And my old partner has cooked for you a midnight meal！Do come in for it，comrades！""Thank you，Mr.Cai，thanks for your hospitality！" instead of brewing a story，Wang，who'd dealt with Cai，was calling a spade a spade，"The last thing we soldiers want is causing troubles to the villagers.We were to stay here till dawn，but just a moment ago，you know，we had an emergency call from the principal of our military area，informing us that there happened a mountain landslide，in the direction of Jialingjiang River，causing great hazards to the Bao（Baoji）-Cheng（Chengdu）railway.We are ordered to rush to remove the danger without delay.So，we must leave now！Before our departure，I have a request for your consideration！" said Wang."Whatever you may ask will be satisfied！" put Cai seriously."No offense，but no whistles this time，ok？" joked Lieutenant Wang with his hands resting respectfully in the air.During their talks，soldiers had had their backpacks carried on their backs and got on in order.Seeing this，Xiwa，a happily bouncing boy just now，was quick to take hold of Wang's garment，the hanging part，unwilling to let go of it and again sobbed，"We classmates have rehearsed some programs and songs for you.We will show you and with you take a group photo tomorrow when moving to the new school.So，please don't go！Don't go，not until tomorrow！We will be very upset.Please put off your departure to some time later！Please！" Huode hurried to draw the boy back but failed.At the moment，the power of the small hands with all heart did surmount the strong."Xiwa，you are a good boy and you must leave go of his hand，because he is now dispatched to deal with emergency with his people.It's much the same as going to war at front.And you are ****** Wang a deserter if you keep him here still." reasoned Old Cai .Finally，Xiwa took Cai's persuasion and released his hands.The soldiers stepped off in good spirits.With the aged hands full of calluses，Cai took Xiwa by his fleshy and tender hands and saw the soldiers off so far the way，along with the fellow villagers，following the military vehicle，memorizing the name of each soldier，and blessing for their safety...
