Chapter 25
As soon as he got home, Lin Sijun complained: “Sister, there are fewer big ominous shrimps today than yesterday, and there are many people, not only from our brigade, but also from the Datang production brigade and Tangjia’ao production brigade, maybe We won’t even have a place to fish for big ominous shrimp tomorrow.” The action of catching big ominous shrimp here in the past two days is so big, how could the team next door not find it?
Lin Yiyi: “This lake doesn’t belong to us either. It’s good if we have some fishing… Dajun, the water at home is gone, you take your brother to fetch water, and we’ll eat after you have carried the water. You’ve worked hard today, and my sister will steam it for you. If you want jerky, one piece per person.” The meat was sent by the Xiao family, and it was dried into jerky by her.
Lin Dajun was originally a little dissatisfied. He went to fetch water as soon as he came back from catching the big ominous shrimp. This was to exhaust him, but when he heard the elder sister said to give them sliced meat, he immediately stopped talking. Lin Dajun, to put it bluntly, if you let him work, if you want to benefit him, he will have no problem. Such people are actually simpler than Lin Erjun.
In the evening, Lin Yiyi asked her younger brothers to take Lin Wudi to play, and she was going to struggle to write a manuscript at night.
For two days in a row, Lin Yiyi wrote several short stories, each with 1,000 words, 3,000 words, and 5,000 words. She didn’t know what type of articles the county newspaper liked, so she wrote a few more. The long manuscript has not been written, because there is not enough time. After writing the manuscript of the short story, she went to the commune. There was a post office in the commune, and she could send it directly to the newspaper office.
At the same time, the county seat of Zhangjia.
Yang Guilan’s distant relative, surnamed Zhang, has a distant relationship with Yang Guilan’s family.
When Mr. Zhang came home from get off work today, his wife gave him a letter.
Mr. Zhang: “Is this a letter? Mine?”
Mrs. Zhang: “It’s not yours? It was sent to our house, and there is no mailing address, but from the zip code, it belongs to our county.”
Mr. Zhang tore open the envelope a little puzzled, and said at first glance, “That’s a good word.” Then he read it, and after reading it, he frowned.
Mrs. Zhang: “What’s wrong?”
Mr. Zhang asked, “Where’s Xiaojun?” Lin Erjun has now changed his name to Zhang Xiaojun. Filial piety means filial piety. It goes without saying that the army retains Lin Erjun’s original name, which is also a part of Zhang’s family. Zhang Xiaojun has already transferred his household registration to the Zhang family’s household registration book, and the relevant procedures have been completed.
Mrs. Zhang was relieved: “No, he is about to go to junior high school. He is reading and previewing, but he is a hard-working child.”
Mr. Zhang nodded: “Come to the room.”
Madam Zhang was puzzled. Seeing her husband’s expression was a little serious, she followed into the room. After entering the room, Mr. Zhang gave the letter to Mrs. Zhang: “Look, what do you say?”
Mrs. Zhang was a little surprised when she read the letter, but she was not angry. They didn’t get along with Zhang Xiaojun for a few days. Although she felt that the child was hard-working, motivated, and filial to the original family, there was no such thing as deep affection. People’s feelings are all out of place, otherwise there is a saying that it is better to cultivate kindness than to give birth to kindness? “This… what’s going on? Is it because someone is jealous of Xiaojun?”
Mr. Zhang said: “I don’t know the specifics of this matter. There are only two reasons for the other party to write such a letter, one is kindness, and the other is to sabotage our adoption of Xiaojun, but no matter which reason, we It is impossible to suspect Xiaojun just because of a letter, and since the child has already been transferred, it will not work if the child is returned.”
Mrs. Zhang: “What if the child is a bad one? You read what the letter said, saying that Xiaojun was so young that he beguiled his own sister to sell blood to support him in order to go to school and have food to eat. He also said So, in order to let us adopt him, we tried to cut off the family’s food source, so that the family would be forced to greedy for the 200 yuan because there was no food… Why am I so upset about this?”
Mr. Zhang: “Didn’t Guilan say that the Lin family is good? Xiaojun’s eldest sister also returned the 200 yuan to him, but because this is the money we gave to the Lin family, and the Lin family gave it to Xiaojun, we naturally won’t take it back. However, since the letter says so, let’s observe Xiaojun for a while.”
Mrs. Zhang: “Then what if Xiao Jun is really… really scheming?”
Mr. Zhang smiled and said, “How can there be so much scheming at such a young age? If this is the case, we should also be on guard.”
Mrs. Zhang was still a little hesitant: “Then return it to the Lin family?”
Mr. Zhang shook his head: “Why? Say we suspect that he is of bad character? How can there be any reason to return it after adoption? Besides, I don’t know what the situation of this letter writer is. If Xiaojun is really bad, we will teach him well. That’s it, it’s just a mouthful of rice. But… it’s an adopted son, it’s hard to say whether he will be filial to us in the future, I thought, why don’t we adopt another one?”
Mrs. Zhang: “This is you?” With their family’s conditions, it’s not a problem to adopt two people. Although food is in short supply right now, it’s okay to go to the black market to buy food at high prices.
Mr. Zhang said: “One of the two adopted sons will always be filial to us, and it also makes them have a mind of comparison. Whoever thinks that who is more filial to us, we will give the family property to whomever.”
Mrs. Zhang: “You suddenly thought of this?”
Mr. Zhang: “I’ve thought about it for a long time. After all, it’s adopted. We are not too young. We can’t put our hopes on one person. We take the money, and we are afraid that they will not be filial?”
Mrs. Zhang thought for a while: “You’re right, when people are compared, the pressure will be great.” As she spoke, her eyes were red, “It would be great if Aren was still there.” Her voice also choked up. Aren is their son.
Mr. Zhang patted his wife on the shoulder: “Don’t think about it.” He was also sad and sad. Thinking of his son, his eyes were red. However, the deceased has passed away, if he can’t stand up to comfort and take care of his wife, the wife will not be able to get out of this pain.
Madam Zhang didn’t say anything.
Shanglin Production Brigade
Usually Lin Dajun and the others came back at five or six o’clock. Today, they came back at four o’clock, and they didn’t even have half of the usual lobster. Lin Dajun, Lin Sanjun and Lin Sijun were dealing with lobsters, and they inevitably complained about Lin Erjun.
Lin Dajun said angrily: “If it weren’t for the Second Army, we could still fish for a few days. It’s alright now, the big ominous shrimp are gone, and my sister hasn’t found the next place.”
Lin Sijun: “No, how can you find such a big ominous shrimp?”
Lin Sanjun was also angry with Lin Erjun, but did not speak.
Lin Yiyi: “Hey… If the 200 yuan Second Army didn’t take it away, we might be able to use the money to buy some food. But… But if someone knew, we would use the money from selling our younger brother and elder brother to buy food. Food, we don’t have to be human anymore.”
Lin Dajun: “Sister, you are so kind.”
Lin Yiyi smiled: “If it’s you Dajun, even if my sister gives you the money back, you will definitely give it to my sister secretly. My sister believes in you and is a good brother and brother.”
Lin Dajun thought to himself, he would definitely not give it secretly, but he couldn’t destroy the impression in my sister’s heart.
Lin Sijun: “Why didn’t the second brother secretly give us the money? The second brother just wants the money himself. He is really selfish.”
Lin Dajun: “He has always been so selfish, and even asked his sister to sell blood. He is the only one who has many tricks.”
Lin Sanjun did not speak.
Lin Yiyi watched them and continued to say that Lin Erjun was wrong, thinking to himself, plastic brother. But: “School will start in two days, what do you think?”
Lin Dajun: “Going to sell blood…it’s not enough.” Director Yang came to them because of selling blood, saying that selling blood was illegal. Therefore, Lin Dajun, who originally wanted to sell blood to support his schooling, did not count on it. Sell blood.
Lin Sijun pouted, he had never even attended school, so he was getting worse.
Lin Sanjun didn’t speak and looked at Lin Yiyi.
Lin Yiyi said: “Dajun, you are the eldest brother, and you are the head of the family. First, what do you think?”
Lin Dajun: “…I…you…you dowry…the dowry can be…” He was a little ashamed. The eldest sister has been living a good life with them recently, and he feels embarrassed to let him talk about studying with a dowry as a matter of course.
Lin Yiyi: “The dowry is 16 yuan in total, and the 10 yuan is privately used by your brother-in-law to decorate the facade. I have to return it, that is, only 6 yuan. After I get married, the 6 yuan can be handed over to Dajun for your safekeeping. However, six yuan is not enough for the three of you to go to school together, but only for one person.”
Lin Yiyi didn’t say it clearly, but the three brothers were thinking, if there is only enough for one person to go to school, then who will go? At this time, everyone wants to go.
Lin Yiyi: “If you go to school and have no food, what do you eat?”
So, someone has to find something to eat.
Lin Dajun: “I will have food until October.” Their parents’ previous work points can be distributed in October, but they don’t know how much they can get, and the food has to be handed in.
Lin Yiyi: “I have an idea.”
Lin Dajun: “Sister, what do you think?”
Lin Yiyi: “Although I don’t have to work now, I still have to work when the farming is busy. In the second half of the year, no matter how much food there is, the money earned from work points will still be distributed to us. Don’t go to school, first earn some work points to earn some money, and when we have the money, let’s go to school. Of course, for the sake of fairness, the money you earn from your own work points is under your control, and you will use the money when the time comes. Go to school. Sister thinks, my younger brothers earn their own work points and earn money to go to school. They are so hard-working, hard-working, and motivated. Maybe the commune and school will praise you.”
Children of this age love to be praised.
Lin Yiyi added: “If it was before, my sister could still sell her blood to earn money for you to study, but now… selling blood is against the law.”
Lin Dajun: “Sister, you don’t want to sell blood.” He didn’t want her to break the law, and the whole family would eat guns.
Lin Yiyi: “Sister is afraid if she doesn’t go. But what about you studying?”
The three brothers of the Lin family continued to be silent.
Lin Yiyi: “Sister has another idea, Dajun, Third Army, Fourth Army, you all listen to it. Dajun is only 13 years old, he goes to school early, and it doesn’t matter if he goes to junior high school in a few years. Third Army is already in the second grade, Fourth Army I haven’t gone to school yet, so my sister thought, go to the county waste station to find some textbooks and come back in a few days. Before we save money to study, Dajun can want to preview the textbooks for junior high school, so that when he goes to school in the future, Dajun will know everything, the teacher and My classmates thought Dajun was a genius, so they must be envious.
The primary school knowledge of the Third Army and the Fourth Army is taught by Dajun. When we are studying, primary school costs one yuan per semester. Dajun is not a teacher. The Third Army and the Fourth Army pay 5 cents in tuition to Dajun. In this way, after a few years, the Third Army and the Fourth Army will have money. When they go to school, they don’t have to start from scratch, and they can skip grades directly to the fourth and fifth grades. Grade, for the Third Army and Fourth Army, the tuition fee is also saved a lot. Saving money means making money, and for the army, it can also earn a few dollars. What do you think? “
The three brothers glanced at each other, and Lin Dajun had no opinion. In the case of no money to study, teaching younger brothers to study can still make money, what’s the point? He saved the money he made to go to junior high school. So Lin Dajun said to Lin Sanjun and Lin Sijun: “Sanjun, you have to study for three years in grades three, four, and five, and you still have to pay 3 yuan for tuition. If I teach you, you will save half of the tuition. Fourth Army, you are the same, it is not easy to earn work points to earn money, and it is good to save half.”
In the original play, the younger brothers of the Lin family all graduated from high school and became workers, which shows that the younger brothers of the Lin family have good academic performance, so Lin Yiyi is not worried about letting Lin Dajun teach Lin Sanjun and Lin Sijun. Don’t you watch it yourself? Moreover, Lin Dajun will definitely be willing to teach. After all, he can make money. As long as his own interests are involved, the younger brothers of the Lin family will consider it.
So it didn’t take long for Lin Sanjun and Lin Sijun to agree. For Lin Sijun, this was something he could not ask for. He originally thought that he could not study, but now the eldest sister suddenly asked the eldest brother to teach him, can he be unhappy? Just: “Sister, I have no money right now.”
Lin Yiyi: “If you don’t have money, you can owe it first, Dajun, is it okay to owe it first?”
Lin Dajun: “No problem.” As the eldest brother, he is not afraid that Lin Sanjun and Lin Sijun will not give him.
There is another very important reason why Lin Yiyi was able to convince them so quickly. The brothers of the Lin family value reading. The original plot did not say why the brothers of the Lin family valued reading, and Lin Yiyi was not interested to know. At least for now, they can study for the sake of reading. Peace of mind is the best.
The Lin family has primary school textbooks. When they were studying, Lin Yiyi shared a set with Lin Dajun and Lin Erjun. When Lin Sanjun finished reading, the set of primary school textbooks was given to Lin Sanjun. The elementary school textbook was given to Lin Sijun. The book was very old, and some parts were badly damaged, but when Lin Sijun was holding the book, he was quite excited, and his eyes were red. He didn’t think that his father and mother died, and he could continue to study, which was something he never thought. Lin Sijun wiped his eyes silently, and then said to Lin Dajun and Lin Yiyi: “Sister, big brother, thank you.” If there is no sister and big brother, he will definitely not be able to study. Selfishly, Lin Sijun knew that the eldest brother would be willing to teach them to read, and it was because of the words of the elder sister, and even because of the relationship of fifty cents, so the person he was more grateful to was the elder sister.
Lin Sanjun also looked at the book in the third grade of elementary school and remained silent.
Lin Dajun calculated how much money he could earn.
the next day
Today, Jin Yu and Lin Yiyi are going to the county town to get new clothes, so they came very early.
Lin Yiyi explained to the younger brothers a few times, and then took the fifth brother Lin away. Although there were almost no lobsters over there, maybe they were lucky enough to catch a few, so the Lin brothers naturally continued.
“Brother Xiao Yu.” Lin Yiyi hugged fifth brother Lin, carrying a basket on his back.
Brother Lin also recognized Xiao Yu, and when he saw him, he struggled to want Xiao Yu to hug him: “Hold…brother hug…”
Jin Yu carried him to the small chair fixed on the bar at the front of the bicycle. Because it is a small chair, the back can be leaned on, so the little guy will not fall off even if he is upset.
Lin Yiyi: “Brother Xiao Yu, your method is really good.”
Jin-Woo: “Well…that way you won’t get tired.”
Lin Yiyi smiled sweetly at him: “Thank you Brother Xiao Yu.”
Jin Yu got on the bicycle and carried Lin Yiyi. He rides slowly, and he has something to ask him: “Yiyi…” Calling her by her name is a little unaccustomed. He used to call him Daya, but his mother said it makes sense. In the village, there are even other There are a lot of people in the village called Daya, who knows who they are? “I ask you something.”
Lin Yiyi was curious: “What’s the matter?”
Jin Yu: “Did you tell someone about the blood sale this time? Or, who else knows about it?”
Lin Yiyi: “? Director Yang of the commune knew about this matter and came to ask me specifically…” She repeated the previous matter in its entirety, including the matter of Lin Erjun, “Why did Brother Xiao Yu suddenly ask about this? I seemed very nervous when I listened to Director Yang’s question, Brother Xiao Yu, you asked again, what’s the matter?” Lin Yiyi pondered inwardly, Director Yang and Xiao Yu should have no deal, right? How does Jin-Woo know she mentioned this to someone else?
Xiao Yu said: “Yesterday, the police smashed the place where private blood was sold and arrested the relevant personnel.”
Lin Yiyi was even more surprised now: “Yes, is it related to Director Yang? Brother Xiao Yu, how did you know?”
Xiao Yu: “I came back from the army and transferred to the county police station. I haven’t been employed yet. I’ll report after our wedding.”
Lin Yiyi was a little surprised, and did not expect such a thing to happen. But: “After that, did you cycle back and forth every day?”
Xiao Yu: “Follow me to the county seat, there is a family room there, would you like to?”
Lin Yiyi is naturally willing, no one wants to live with her mother-in-law, but she has never thought about splitting the family. First of all, this is the case in this era, and secondly, for now, Grandma Xiao and Qin Xiangju are very good people. Besides, , Once married, the family will be separated, and this face is too big.
Lin Yiyi: “Then I have to come back during the break to be filial to Grandma Xiao and my aunt. There are no elders in my family, so I have to come back and ask my grandma and aunt to help me and give me advice, so I can rest assured. more. Besides, grandma and aunt must miss you too.”
Jin Yu: “Okay… don’t tell the public about the police smashing the blood shop. Originally, this was a clue you provided, and there was a reward, but for your safety, this matter was suppressed.”
Lin Yiyi was shocked: “Is this… what is it related to?”
Jin Yu: “Well, I shouldn’t tell you about the internal secrets. If you say it, you will be afraid, but it is related to your safety, so I have to remind you.”
Lin Yiyi: “Brother Xiao Yu, tell me.”
Jin-Woo: “The shop that sells blood is related to secret agents, and the blood they collect has other uses as well.”
Lin Yiyi’s heart was pounding. At this moment, her feeling was especially obvious. She was indeed in the 1960s, and the agents were cruel and ruthless. If this matter had something to do with her, the agents might come. kill yourself. She took the hand of Jin Yu’s clothes and couldn’t help hugging his waist, her hands were still shaking, she was really afraid.
Jin Yu could feel her emotions through the clothes, he said, “Don’t be afraid, there is me.”
Lin Yiyi: “Yeah.” However, this sentence did not reassure her, “Then… Did the Second Army know that selling blood was also deliberately promoted by others? That railway brother from the Tangjia’ao Production Brigade, he…”
Jin Yu: “He is an intermediary. The so-called intermediary means that he spread this blood selling thing in the countryside, and then he was rewarded. Now that he has been detained, it is impossible for him to be released in this life.”
This is not mentioned in the original plot.
Of course, the original plot revolved around Da Ya. After Da Ya and Xiao Yu’s marriage contract was cancelled, the author did not write anything about Xiao Yu, and even in the TV series, it was not broadcast. So Lin Yiyi is sure that these things are definitely not the author’s description, so… is this world automatically generated?
Lin Yiyi suppressed the irritability in her heart. No matter what she thought about these things, it was useless. All she could do was to live her own life well. Although she didn’t know whether her time-travel was temporary or for a lifetime, she would consider this as a lifetime. Moreover, with her years of experience in reading books, it is almost nine times out of ten that a person who wears the same name and surname is a lifetime. It’s just that people are wearing cannon fodder supporting actresses, and she is wearing a bitter heroine. Speaking of which, it’s not as good as a female cannon fodder. Usually, a female cannon fodder has good looks, a figure, and a lot of money, while the bitter heroine has nothing but hard work. Fortunately, this is the heroine, so she should do everything. Not going to die, of course, she won’t die either.
Lin Yiyi didn’t show it on her face, she was thinking all over her heart.
Jin Yu saw that she didn’t say anything and thought she was worried about the spy, but for her safety, he would definitely tell her.
When they arrived at the county seat, the two went to pick up the newly made clothes first, and then went to the state-run restaurant for lunch. After the meal, Xiao Yu said, “I’ll take you to get acquainted with the public security workers’ hospital?”
Lin Yiyi: “Okay, thank you Brother Xiao Yu.”
