Chapter 46 Progress
On the other side, Lin Nianyin also reported this matter to the labor union in the family area, and they also said that it would be dealt with.
In addition to the most basic issue of deducting points, one of them happened to be a newly recruited worker when the soap factory expanded its recruitment some time ago, and was also temporarily suspended.
In less than a day, this matter became a big issue in the family area.
When Lin Nianyin walked home from school, she found that many people were looking at her with strange eyes.
Even some people who would normally say hello to her were hesitant to say anything this time.
I don’t know if I think she went too far, or something else.
But since they had already decided to do this, Lin Nianyin could predict the current situation and didn't take it to heart.
She went home to cook as usual and then waited for Wei Mingchuan to come back.
While Lin Nianyin was busy, Su Yingxiu was followed by Yaya. The two of them came staggering over with their hands clasped in front of their chests exactly the same.
Lin Nianyin couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw the two of them like this. There are two of us, one big and one small. The big one can be said to be more sassy, while the little one is just like a stumbling little penguin, pretending to be fierce!
Who would have thought that when Su Yingxiu and Yaya came to join the army last year, Yaya was still a timid and cowardly little girl who didn't dare to say a word? In just over half a year, Su Yingxiu had to fight with her. That's almost it. Yaya can learn whatever Su Yingxiu does.
Lin Nianyin said dumbfounded: "Look at your Yaya, she looks more and more like you now."
Su Ying raised her eyebrows, looked back, and said, "Isn't this bad?"
Lin Nianyin shook her head, "I'm not saying it's bad, I just think it's funny to see her, a little breasted baby, imitating you all day long, being fierce and breasty."
Su Yingxiu said: "Girls should be raised to be strong. I also plan to wait until Yaya gets a little older and let Yang Duozhi teach her some self-defense skills so that she won't suffer a loss when she goes out."
Lin Nianyin nodded, "That's true. It's always good for girls to know how to defend themselves."
Su Yingxiu said: "So, girls should be more powerful."
Then the conversation changed. Su Yingxiu stared at Lin Nianyin and said, "I heard you made a big deal today."
Lin Nianyin shook her head, "I'm tired of being harassed. Let's kill the chicken to scare the monkeys."
Su Yingxiu moved her shoulders, "I hope that after you kill the chicken this time, the monkeys jumping around outside will have a better memory."
Then she spread her hands, and Su Yingxiu said: "But I feel anxious. If you are like me and don't care about anything, only worry about the one-third of an acre of land around you, and don't go out or socialize, basically,, you won't have any problems." What's the matter, is that you are both a teacher and a consultant, and there are quite a lot of things going back and forth. I'm not sure if someone will come over and mess with you one day."
Lin Nianyin sighed, "There's nothing I can do about it. I can't just do nothing because I'm afraid of running into trouble. That would be too boring."
Su Yingxiu said: "You think this is boring, but I think this is leisure. It seems that we still have different ideas, there is a generation gap."
Lin Nianyin smiled.
Of course, she knew that many young people in later generations preferred to stay at home and not go out. It was not surprising that Su Yingxiu had such an idea.
Lin Nianyin said: "Anyway, I can live in peace for a while. I guess after this time, there won't be too many people who don't have a good eye."
Su Yingxiu shrugged, "I hope so."
Then he sighed, "Sure enough, interpersonal communication is the most troublesome thing."
-
Wei Mingchuan came back a little late today.
Lin Nianyin waited until he had eaten and then told him what happened during the day.
Wei Mingchuan said: "I already know."
"So fast?" Lin Nianyin raised her eyebrows.
She knew that once this matter became a big deal, the army would definitely get involved, but she didn't expect that the first day had not even passed, and the army had already known about the trouble. It was too fast.
Wei Mingchuan shook his head and said with a smile: "One of the three students is at the same level as me. As soon as the incident came out, they called the camp directly to complain, and then they found out."
"So your leader came to talk to you?" Lin Nianyin saw the little girl jumping around to get out of the car, so she hugged her down.
Wei Mingchuan reached out to take the little girl over and helped her walk while saying: "That's right. Actually, the main thing is to ask about the specific situation. I am also worried that there will be too many quarrels between the family members and affect our work. But you don't have to worry, this matter is not our problem. The troops didn't say anything to me. On the contrary, they were all criticized. I guess there must be a commotion at home at the moment. Maybe they can come over in two days. They will want to apologize to you."
Lin Nianyin looked at Wei Mingchuan walking with the little girl and shook her head, "Why bother? Why didn't you think about it before making trouble?"
"By the way." Thinking of something again, Lin Nianyin looked at Wei Mingchuan and asked, "Do you think those families discussed this matter at home the night before? It's impossible that the men in the family don't know anything. , it’s just women who make their own decisions and come to me to make trouble.”
Lin Nianyin shook her head, "I always feel that this matter is not entirely the idea of those women. Maybe your good colleagues also know about it."
Wei Mingchuan said: "We are close to each other. You also know the current situation. In the planned economy, there are not many opportunities. One job is an iron rice bowl. Who doesn't want to have an iron rice bowl in their family, let alone in a regular factory in the city? If the woman at home makes trouble with you, and then you can really get a job for the children at home, that will be a big bargain."
Lin Nianyin immediately raised her eyebrows, "Then, my suspicion just now is correct. These men must have the same understanding in their hearts."
Wei Mingchuan saw that the little girl was sweating from exhaustion, so he simply picked her up and said, "That's for sure."
Lin Nianyin immediately rolled her eyes.
Wei Mingchuan held down the little girl who continued to fuss about walking, smiled, and rubbed Lin Nianyin's head, "After all, we are short of everything now, not to mention ordinary officers, even those at the level of Political Commissar Yang and others, if you want to give it to them casually, It’s not easy for people to arrange work, and you don’t just have a lot of fat on your hands.”
Lin Nianyin continued Wei Mingchuan's words and said: "So, even if you fall out with me because of this, it doesn't matter. As long as we can arrange it for the children at home, they can do anything."
Wei Mingchuan nodded.
Lin Nianyin saw that the little girl in Wei Mingchuan's arms was making a lot of noise, so he asked Wei Mingchuan to put her on the mat and let her play by herself, and then got her toys, and then said: "No matter what, these people just say they think I'm easy to bully, right? I won't let it go so easily this time."
Wei Mingchuan said "Yeah", "You can do whatever you want."
Perhaps God wanted to accentuate the misery of those people, so before dawn the next day, it started to rain heavily outside.
Wei Mingchuan got up early in the morning, still doing laundry and simmering a pot of porridge in the pot.
When he went out, Yang Duozhi, who was next door, also went out with a laundry basket like him. When he saw Wei Mingchuan, he said hello, "Good morning, captain."
Wei Mingchuan raised his eyelids and said, "Morning."
Yang Duozhi then turned his head and looked to the other side, and the door of Meng Chengyi's house was also opened.
Yang Duozhi immediately rushed over, knocking on the door and shouting, "Lao Meng, Lao Meng, Lao Meng... Get up and go out to wash clothes..."
Wei Mingchuan: "..."
This kind of simple daily life has become a habit, and Wei Mingchuan doesn't know how many times he has watched it.
From their initial reluctance to being entangled by Yang Duozhi, Meng Chengyi gave in, but the time he went out every day was unstable.
He shook his head and refused to interfere. He went to wash his clothes first.
Not long after, Yang Duozhi pulled the frowning Meng Chengyi over, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "I'm not talking about you, Lao Meng, look at you, you are already black, and now you have a darker face, compared to that other black person." It’s even more shameful. If you say you are a good grown man, why can’t you be happy and happy!”
Meng Chengyi sneered, "Can you feel happy when you go out to wash clothes on a rainy day?"
Yang Duozhi spread his hands and said, "Look at me now, I am very happy."
Meng Chengyi elbowed Yang Duozhi.
Yang Duozhi jumped away, followed immediately, and then quarreled with Meng Chengyi while skillfully washing clothes.
After a while, Yang Duozhi suddenly turned to look at Wei Mingchuan and said, "Captain, when I got home yesterday, I heard that my sister-in-law is very powerful this time. The leader above came to you yesterday for that matter, right?"
"What's going on?" Meng Chengyi immediately looked over and asked.
Yang Duozhi raised his eyebrows, "You don't know?"
Meng Chengyi looked confused, "What do I know?"
Yang Duozhi said: "My sister-in-law was looking for a job for a student and was later brought into the family. Is it possible that your family didn't tell you about it?"
"Oh!" Meng Chengyi suddenly said, " Guihua mentioned this, but didn't say much. What's wrong?"
Yang Duozhi's mouth was much faster than Wei Mingchuan's, and he immediately explained the cause and effect from front to back.
Meng Chengyi frowned, "Then, if my sister-in-law does this, it should be okay, right?"
Yang Duozhi looked at Wei Mingchuan, "No, I'm asking our group leader."
Wei Mingchuan frowned slightly and looked over with cold eyes, "Since you two are so free, today you will lead the team to the mountains for activities and training, and on the way, pack some things for the canteen."
"Today?" Yang Duozhi immediately shouted: "Captain, look at the rain now. It's not good to go into the mountain today."
Wei Mingchuan said calmly: "When will it be your turn to point fingers at me?"
Yang Duozhi immediately closed his babbling mouth.
The three of them finished washing their clothes at about the same time, and then headed home together.
Tian Guihua had been waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw Meng Chengyi, she immediately took the laundry basket from his hand and then started to inquire about the welfare, and was busy.
Meng Chengyi raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Mingchuan and Yang Duozhi with a proud look on his face.
As a result, Wei Mingchuan only ignored him and Yang Duozhi rolled his eyes.
Wei Mingchuan hung his clothes to dry under the eaves of the doorway and left after eating.
Not long after Wei Mingchuan left, Lin Nianyin got up.
She tidied up the little girl first, then let the little girl, who had been fussy about walking all day, move on the mat by herself, and then started eating.
As soon as the little girl saw Lin Nianyin eating, she crawled over and shouted "Ahhhhhh" with her little mouth open: "Eat... rice... hungry... eat rice..."
Lin Nianyin said: "You are so delicious, now you know you want me."
The little girl was just like the little swallow that opened its mouth to eat and kept saying "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", asking for food.
Lin Nianyin picked up the little girl and put her in the car. "Then it's agreed. I'll feed you, but you have to sit in the car. Don't wait until you take a bite and then start making trouble to walk again."
Little girl: "Eat rice! Eat rice..."
Lin Nianyin had no choice but to start feeding the little girl while eating by herself.
The little girl is not honest.
After eating a few mouthfuls, she made a fuss about going down to walk. No matter how Lin Nianyin fed her, she refused to eat. She kept pointing to the ground and said: "Go...go..."
Lin Nianyin sighed. The older this girl gets, the more noisy she becomes.
Lin Nianyin immediately deliberately darkened her face and said, "If I leave, I won't eat."
The little girl didn't understand and continued to fuss about walking.
Lin Nianyin could only put her on the ground and let her crawl on her own.
Then, the little girl climbed back and looked for Lin Nianyin to ask for food.
Lin Nianyin was angry and funny. When she was trying to reason with the little girl, the same people from yesterday came over again.
Lin Nianyin raised her eyebrows, then immediately calmed down and said, "What are you doing here again?"
Different from the arrogant ones who came to question them yesterday, these people have completely changed their appearance now. They opened their mouths and started talking about what happened yesterday.
"Teacher Lin, what happened the day before yesterday is really not our fault. We didn't want to say anything when we came here. We just asked about the situation. Unlike Gao Yanmei, we really didn't blame you. Look at how you said you won't let your children go to class. You even reported us, and now our... child can't go to school, and his job is gone, aren't you trying to harm us!"
"What do you mean you're different from me?" Before Wei Mingchuan answered, the one who caused the most trouble the day before yesterday spoke up.
It was the so-called Gao Yanmei.
The woman said: "It's different. We're not here to make trouble. Teacher Lin, you really have to believe us. Your trouble has caused our children to be unable to go to class and I have lost my job. This is too much." Come on!"
Lin Nianyin's brows suddenly wrinkled: "Excessive? Harming you? Why did I harm you? In the final analysis, this matter is only caused by you coming here to find trouble. What does it have to do with me."
"But I'm not here to make trouble, I really just came here to ask," the person who started to speak said anxiously, "I really just asked, after all, it's a job, about the iron rice bowl, I heard the children say I was not selected. As an adult, I can't help but ask. I didn't say anything the day before yesterday. The one who complained about you from the beginning to the end was Gao Yanmei. What does it have to do with me? Even if you are angry, you can't Count me in!”
The woman gasped, "Well, I didn't say a word, but in the end, my children couldn't go to school and I lost my good job. Aren't I unlucky?"
Lin Nianyin recalled what this person said after entering the door, and it suddenly became clear that this person was a family member of the same level as Wei Mingchuan mentioned yesterday.
Lin Nianyin said: "You think you are unlucky, then I worked hard in class and recommended jobs to those students when I had the opportunity. In the end, I didn't get any benefits, but I got troubles one after another. As for me, I am not unlucky?”
Lin Nianyin frowned, "Besides, you are just saying nothing. Why should I believe you? I don't want to talk about this anymore. Anyway, you can go back. Everything has happened, and it is meaningless to talk about it anymore."
"No, why are you so unreasonable, Teacher Lin? This incident has been blamed on Gao Yanmei from beginning to end. Why can you still blame me?"
"I'm reasonable enough, otherwise I wouldn't be easy to bully." With a sneer, Lin Nianyin looked at Gao Yanmei, Chen Wangjun's mother, and said, "Since you think you blame her, then It’s no use looking for her, not me.”
"Why are you calling me? What did I say? Isn't what I said wrong? I came here to ask about the situation," Gao Yanmei immediately shouted, "Besides, we had agreed upon it when we came over. Why? Now I’m the only one to blame.”
"Who told you not to accuse others unjustly?" The people nearby started arguing with Gao Yanmei.
"How come I have wronged you? Let me tell you Chen Shuhong, don't pretend to be a good person at this time. When you were with me in private, you often talked about your children's work. It was you who said you came here to settle the score with Teacher Lin! "Gao Yanmei immediately started arguing.
Chen Shuhong also started arguing: "Gao Yanmei, what are you talking about? When did I talk to you about work in private? We didn't know each other before, and I'm not familiar with you. When did we talk?", You are shameless and don’t even think about dragging me along. It was obviously you and Wang Zhaodi who were whispering together, but now it’s all on me..."
Wang Zhaodi beside them also joined in the quarrel.
Lin Nianyin looked at the quarrels, her eyebrows furrowed and tightened, and she couldn't help but say: "If you want to quarrel, go out and quarrel. Our house is not the place for you to quarrel."
Those few people didn't know if they didn't hear it or if they turned a deaf ear to Lin Nianyin's words and didn't pay any attention to them.
Lin Nianyin looked around, and finally took the morning wash water and poured it at their feet. Only then did the three chattering people stop.
"Teacher Lin, what are you doing!"
"Why are you throwing water at us!"
Lin Nianyin said with a cold face: "Our home is not a place for you to quarrel. If you want to quarrel, go home and quarrel. You are not welcome in our home, so get out quickly."
"Teacher Lin, we..."
Lin Nianyin pointed to the door, "Get out!"
The three of them finally looked at me, then at you, and reluctantly walked out.
The noise here was loud and everyone around heard it.
Many people leaned against the door and stretched their heads to look at Lin Nianyin's home.
After the three people left, someone immediately asked: "Teacher Lin, what's wrong? Are they still here to cause trouble?"
Lin Nianyin said: "I said I came to apologize, but in fact, they still blamed me."
"These people are so shameless. Then why did I hear them quarreling themselves?"
Lin Nianyin shook her head, "We didn't discuss the words in private."
Su Yingxiu immediately clicked her tongue and said: "This is called dog biting dog, hah."
Aunt Yang wiped her hands at the door, frowned, and said, "These people are really shameless. They came to your house to quarrel early in the morning. They don't understand any rules and don't feel embarrassed."
Lin Nianyin was too lazy to think about these things anymore. She saw that the rain would not stop for a while, and it was inconvenient to take the little girl to class, so she entrusted the little girl to Su Yingxiu and then went to class with an umbrella.
In today's class, Chen Wangjun and three others also came, but they were still invited out by Lin Nianyin.
It rained today and it got dark a little earlier than usual.
But Wei Mingchuan came back earlier than yesterday, carrying a rabbit and a wild duck.
Lin Nianyin couldn't help but frown when she saw it: "Did you lead the team into the mountains today?"
Wei Mingchuan nodded, casually dropped the rabbit and wild duck, and then took the water basin from Lin Nianyin's hand and said, "Yes, lead the team to practice, so that they will not go out for a long time and become slack when they come back."
Lin Nianyin said: "But it's been raining today. It's so unsafe in the mountains."
"It's okay," Wei Mingchuan patted Lin Nianyin's shoulder with clean hands, "I have a sense of propriety."
Lin Nianyin sighed, "Even so, I'm worried, especially since it's getting colder and colder today, and there will be heavy rain and thunder. If something happens, what do you want me to do?"
Wei Mingchuan held down the back of Lin Nianyin's head and patted it, then said casually: "Okay, I'll pay attention next time."
Lin Nianyin stared at Wei Mingchuan for a few seconds, then glared at him, "It would be better if you could really pay attention. Forget it, I won't tell you this anymore. Anyway, you have a sense of propriety in your heart."
"I know." Wei Mingchuan agreed with a smile.
Later, Lin Nianyin also talked to Wei Mingchuan about what happened during the day.
Wei Mingchuan couldn't help but frown, and then said to Lin Nianyin: "Well, I'll talk to their husbands later, and you can leave this matter alone."
It was a pity that Wei Mingchuan's words had just been spoken. The next day, the military department had an urgent task for him. He could only say goodbye to Lin Nianyin and set off again.
Nowadays, it is a rainy time. Most of Wei Mingchuan's missions are in the deep mountains and old forests. Lin Nianyin is worried but has no choice. She can only hope that Wei Mingchuan can be safe and come back soon.
On the other hand, things in the family area have never stopped.
However, because Lin Nianyin drove Gao Yanmei and her party out several times, it was still the same on the third and fourth days.
Those people didn't come over early in the morning to make trouble.
As for the school, Lin Nianyin still refused to accept those students.
After a stalemate for several days, those people even stopped coming.
Lin Nianyin was a little surprised, and then Principal Fang gave him some advice.
Principal Fang said: "If they don't go to you, they must know about Xiao Wei's going out. At this time, if they still cause trouble for you and make you unhappy, then they are causing trouble for Xiao Wei and making Xiao Wei The rear is not stable, and the army will not let them go. The men in the family must have said something. But since they can't come over, don't worry about it, just do your own thing."
Lin Nianyin nodded, "So that's it, I thought they gave up."
Principal Fang shook his head and smiled.
Lin Nianyin didn't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, just don't harass her.
It was rare that the weather had been sunny these two days, so Lin Nianyin asked Principal Fang if he wanted to go out to the city together. Principal Fang still remembered the photoshoot he had agreed to do last time, so he agreed.
However, this time without Wei Mingchuan and the others, Principal Fang asked the guards of Political Commissar Yang to help drive the car.
They first went to the photo studio to take pictures of the children and then went to the department store to prepare some food.
Principal Fang saw that Lin Nianyin did not buy milk powder this time, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "You don't want to buy milk powder anymore?"
Lin Nianyin shook her head, pointed at the little girl moving around in her arms, and said, "She is holding her mouth very tightly now. She doesn't drink milk powder anymore. She thinks about eating oily and salty things all day long. She dislikes the tasteless milk powder and doesn't taste good. "
Principal Fang couldn't laugh or cry, "There are still children who dislike milk powder."
Lin Nianyin said: "No. Besides, I still have a lot of the ones I bought last time at home. I haven't finished them yet, so I won't buy them for now. I'll talk about it later."
Principal Fang was afraid that Lin Nianyin didn't know how to take care of the children, so he said: "Although she wants to eat something with flavor now, you can't give her something with too strong flavor. Children's spleen and gastrointestinal tract are very weak, and strong flavor is not good for them." her health is not good."
Lin Nianyin nodded, "I know."
After buying things, Principal Fang saw that it was still early, so he asked Lin Nianyin: "I think it's still early, and it's rare for us to have time to go out alone. We don't have so many things to do. Do you want to go to a movie and relax?"
"Today?" Lin Nianyin said.
Principal Fang nodded, "How is it?"
Lin Nianyin nodded, "That's okay, but you should eat first at this point. It's almost noon."
Principal Fang said: "Then let's eat first."
They first went to a state-owned hotel to eat, then drove to the entrance of the cinema, bought tickets, and went in.
This was the first time Cen Wangsu saw such a scene, and he couldn't help but wonder: "Why do you have to go inside to watch a movie?"
Lin Nianyin thought of Cen Wangsu's previous situation and said, "The movies you watched before were all outside, right?"
Cen Wangsu nodded obediently, "The uncle who showed the movie came here with a big box on his back to show it, so we moved the bench and sat outside to watch, and we had to fight for the space!"
"But it takes a long time for the uncle who shows movies to come over. I've only seen a movie once." After thinking about it, Cen Wangsu added.
Lin Nianyin said: "You are talking about another kind. It is because there are no movie theaters in many places, so people can only carry machines on their backs and walk around the streets to see movies. What we are watching today is the kind with movie theaters. As long as there is time, we can come over anytime.”
"Oh." Cen Wangsu nodded, "Then it's really nice here."
Lin Nianyin smiled and bought some melon seeds, peanuts, and snacks at the entrance of the cinema, and then shared a little each.
The little girl insisted, but Lin Nianyin didn't dare to give it to her, so she didn't keep any on her hands.
Unexpectedly, not long after the movie started, something strange came from my hand.
When Lin Nianyin lowered her head, it was Cen Wangsu who stuffed some peeled melon seeds and peanuts into her hand, and then lowered his voice and said, "Auntie, I'll peel some for you. You can eat them secretly so my sister doesn't see them."
Lin Nianyin: "..."
After laughing, Lin Nianyin's depressed mood during this period was completely cured by Cen Wangsu.
She rubbed Cen Wangsu's little head and said, "Auntie doesn't want to eat it, so you can eat it yourself."
Cen Wangsu shook his head and forced the thing into Lin Nianyin's hand, "Auntie eats it too. Eat it secretly so that my sister can't see it."
Seeing Cen Wangsu's insistence, Lin Nianyin finally accepted it.
In the darkness, Lin Nianyin actually secretly took a bite behind the little girl's back. Not to mention, it was really delicious.
After a while, Lin Nianyin felt Cen Wangsu stuff something into his hand.
This time, Lin Nianyin said nothing.
She patted Cen Wangsu's hand and said, "Auntie doesn't want to eat it. You can peel it and eat it yourself. Don't worry about me."
Cen Wangsu opened his mouth, "But I want to feed my aunt."
Lin Nianyin couldn't laugh or cry.
Why is this kid so persistent today?
Lin Nianyin was about to speak when she heard Cen Wangsu say: "Grandma said that aunt has been unhappy these days. I want to make Aunt happy. I will be happy every time I eat delicious food."
Lin Nianyin was suddenly shocked.
This kid is really...
Lin Nianyin lowered her head and hugged Cen Wangsu, rubbed her face against his, and said, "Don't worry, aunt just ate the peanuts and melon seeds peeled by Su Su, and she is happy now."
Cen Wangsu raised his chin and looked at Lin Nianyin, "Really?"
Lin Nianyin nodded, "Really, Auntie is not unhappy, you can eat it yourself."
Cen Wangsu nodded slowly, "Okay then."
After watching a movie, Lin Nianyin didn't pay attention to what was shown, but she was moved by little Susu.
After waiting out, Lin Nianyin saw that there was still some time, so she took Principal Fang and the others to the department store again to buy something for Cen Wangsu.
Principal Fang grabbed Lin Nianyin, who was craving for shopping, and couldn't help frowning and scolding: "I know you and Xiao Wei have money, but this is not how you spend your money. When you came here in the morning, didn't you Have you already bought a pair of shoes for Susu, why are you making a fuss about buying something now?"
Lin Nianyin said: "Oh, I feel happy and want to buy it for him."
"That's no need!" Principal Fang looked at Lin Nianyin and said, "Children grow up quickly, and Su Su has a well-behaved temperament. She never runs around naughty, and her clothes are often worn out when they are still new. There is no need to buy such clothes. If you use too much, it will be wasted in the end.”
"Principal! Just" Lin Nianyin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Principal Fang, "You can't say anything."
Cen Wangsu also shook his head, "Auntie, I don't want so many clothes. I can't finish all the clothes I have now. You can save the money to buy them for your sister.
Lin Nianyin said: "My sister has new clothes."
Cen Wangsu patted the clothes on his body and said, "Mine is also new, so there is no need to buy it, otherwise I won't be able to wear it anymore when I grow taller."
With both the old and the young in their way, Lin Nianyin had no choice but to suppress the rising desire to shop in her heart and finally chose to buy some food.
After returning home, Lin Nianyin asked them, one old and one young, to stay for dinner.
Principal Fang agreed.
Lin Nianyin asked Cen Wangsu to help look after the little girl, and then she and Principal Fang were busy choosing and washing vegetables.
Principal Fang couldn't help but ask: "What happened to you in the city just now?"
Lin Nianyin explained the cause and effect of the matter, and then said: "...I can't do anything else, so I just want to buy something useful for Su Su."
"You are really..." Principal Fang shook his head, and then changed the topic, "But I didn't expect him to be so sensible at such a young age. They say that he looks old at the age of three, and this child will be good when he grows up."
"Anyway, I still want to thank you and Political Commissar Yang for your help and care." Lin Nianyin said.
Principal Fang looked back at Cen Wangsu, who was playing patiently with the little girl, and said, "It's not like we have done anything. This child's nature is there. With or without us, he will be the same in the future."
Lin Nianyin smiled.
After saying a few words, the two of them dropped the topic and stopped continuing.
Lin Nianyin and Principal Fang work together, Lin Nianyin mainly does the work, and Principal Fang occasionally helps out.
Together they cooked a dish of braised pork, and a fish fillet, and fried two vegetables before starting the meal.
The four of them had a full meal and rested together at home for a while. Then Principal Fang helped Lin Nianyin clean up the dishes before taking Cen Wangsu back with him.
In the following time, Lin Nianyin's life rarely fell into peace.
Except for occasionally worrying about Wei Mingchuan who doesn't know where he is now in the dead of night, there is nothing else to worry about.
More than half a month later, Lin Nianyin and Principal Fang went to the city again and brought back the original photos.
The days are getting hotter day by day, and it has just arrived at the Dragon Boat Festival. It is already a scorching summer here. Just go out for a short time and you will be sweating profusely.
It was the holiday, and the school gave students a holiday, Lin Nianyin also had some time to relax.
Early in the morning, Aunt Yang came over and asked Lin Nianyin if she wanted to make rice dumplings together.
Lin Nianyin nodded accordingly and then remembered that Political Commissar Yang was busiest during holidays and could not get home yet, so he called Principal Fang and Cen Wangsu over.
With Aunt Yang, Principal Fang, Su Yingxiu, and Lin Nianyin, it seems unreasonable if she is not called Tian Guihua.
Aunt Yang called at the door and asked Tian Guihua if she wanted to make rice dumplings together.
Tian Guihua wiped her hands and came out of the door.
Nowadays, people don’t pay so much attention to making rice dumplings. They usually just make a white rice dumpling and dip it in white sugar to eat.
But Su Yingxiu likes to do some tricks, so she said she would make some candied dates, red beans, and bacon.
Lin Nianyin didn't care how many bags she made, but she said: "The weather is so hot now. If you have too many bags, you won't be able to eat them. Especially for our family, the main people who eat at home are not here, so don't put them away by then."
Su Yingxiu took one look at it and said, "Then let's put it together and pack it together. We will pack a few items as a family, and then we will share a few items as a family, and then they will be gone. They won't go bad."
Lin Nianyin didn't have any objections. Aunt Yang and Principal Fang were also generous and didn't care who spent more and who got less when they were together, but Tian Guihua...
Obviously, Lin Nianyin was not the only one who thought of this, the rest of them also thought of it.
Su Yingxiu immediately looked at Tian Guihua and asked: "Xiaotian, we are going to make rice dumplings together. Each family will give something and then share a share. Do you want to join us?"
"Ah? I...I..." Tian Guihua opened her mouth, but couldn't explain it for a long time.
Su Yingxiu said: "It's okay if you don't want to be together. After all, if we are put together like this, there will inevitably be some unfair distribution."
Tian Guihua looked at this and that, not knowing what to think, "I... let me come together."
Lin Nianyin's eyebrows jumped, and even Su Yingxiu and the others looked at Tian Guihua in surprise.
Strangely, Tian Guihua, who has been around for thousands of years, actually did something unexpected today.
Su Yingxiu immediately asked: "If you really want to come together, when the time comes to share the rice dumplings, don't feel that you have suffered a loss!"
Aunt Yang frowned, "Xiao Su, what are you talking about?"
Su Yingxiu pouted, "I'm telling the truth."
Lin Nianyin pulled Su Yingxiu, and Su Yingxiu said: "Originally, things should be explained clearly."
Tian Guihua quickly said: "I...I won't do that."
"Really?" Su Yingxiu didn't believe it.
Tian Guihua waved her hands quickly, "Really, really, I really don't know how."
After a pause, Tian Guihua said again: "Meng... Brother Meng told me before he left that if I have anything to discuss with you, no... I won't suffer."
Su Yingxiu suddenly laughed, "So, your Meng Chengyi is quite a thief."
Tian Guihua immediately blushed, "No... no."
"Okay, please stop saying a few words." Lin Nianyin grabbed Su Yingxiu who was about to say something, and said quickly: "Since we want to pack it together, let's talk about what to prepare. It just so happens that we still have the bacon pickled last year. If you haven’t finished eating yet, I’ll take out a piece later.”
Su Yingxiu said: "I pickled some salted duck eggs some time ago, and now is the time to eat them. The yolks are oily and very beautiful. Wrap a few yolks in them, I'll make them."
"We have dates and red beans ready at home," Aunt Yang said.
Principal Fang said, "I'll go buy some pork belly later. Fresh pork belly wrapped in rice dumplings is also delicious."
Tian Guihua looked around and saw that she was the only one left. She stammered: "Then... what did I do?"
Principal Fang said: "There's nothing else. You can contribute some glutinous rice, but it's not enough for you to produce glutinous rice alone. It's too much and it's not appropriate. The rest of us can contribute a little each."
Tian Guihua nodded quickly.
When the people dispersed, Su Yingxiu turned Lin Nianyin, and said to Tian Guihua's back, "Hey, tell me, Tian Guihua has changed a bit?"
Lin Nianyin shook her head, "I can't tell, haven't you been in contact with her recently?"
Su Yingxiu shook her head, "It's not like you don't know me. I get angry when I see her being submissive all day long. She won't listen to me even if I say it, let alone change it, so I don't bother to talk to her."
"And the brown sugar factory was also very busy some time ago." Su Yingxiu gestured: "They were busy harvesting sugar cane, then pressing the juice, and then boiling the sugar. They kept going. I rarely had time to bump into her. I’m really not sure.”
Lin Nianyin said: "Then I don't know even more, but looking at her appearance today, it is indeed quite strange."
Su Yingxiu said "Tsk", "Don't you really think you won't suffer a loss when you are with us, that's why you are like this."
Lin Nianyin: "..."
While they were talking, Aunt Yang came over with dates and red beans. She opened her mouth and asked, "What are you two mumbling about?"
Su Yingxiu pointed to the door of Tian Guihua's house, "Isn't this weird!"
"Hey!" Aunt Yang said, "It's really strange, but I think Xiaotian might have figured it out."
Su Yingxiu curled her lips, "She figured it out on her own, why do I not believe it so much!"
Aunt Yang patted Su Yingxiu on the back and scolded: "What's wrong? You don't want Xiaotian to make progress?"
Su Yingxiu said immediately: "I really hope she can make progress, but it's useless no matter how hard we tried to pull her before. Isn't it even more surprising that she can figure it out on her own?"
Aunt Yang said: "Maybe, what if she suddenly figured it out when she was alone? Even Old Song has become better now and is not as desperate as before. Why not Xiaotian can’t change!”
