Chapter 5
Lin Changhuai waved his hand and said, “I know what you want to say. It’s just about the package today.”
Lin Nianyin nodded, “Just now...”
Lin Changhuai waved her hand again, “I can hear Dong Cuiping’s voice from miles away. Isn’t it just that Mingchuan sent you some money and things this time? She made a fuss like murder. I heard it all. Let’s not talk about it for now. As for this matter, it’s almost dark, and it’s not easy for you to cook if you live alone, so you’ll have dinner at our house tonight, and we’ll talk about it after dinner if you have anything to do.”
It happened that Feng Tingting came out with a glass of water. When she saw Lin Nianyin, she said, “Teacher Lin is here.”
Lin Nianyin said hello to Feng Tingting, and Feng Tingting also said: “Yes, Teacher Lin has eaten at our house in the evening. It is not convenient for you to go back and cook alone.”
“Why do you still call me Teacher Nian Yinlin?” Lin Changhuai suddenly spoke and looked at Feng Tingting in confusion.
“Ah?” Feng Tingting just got married, and the relationship between the seven aunts and eight aunts in the countryside is unclear yet, “Can’t you call me? What is your name?”
Lin Changhuai said: “Our old Lin family is one family. My mother and I are of the same generation. You are also of the same generation. I remember that girl Nian Yin is only... twenty-four this year, right?”
Lin Nianyin nodded, “I was born in 1947 and I am 24 this year.”
Lin Changhuai said: “That’s twenty-four. She’s older than you. Just call him sister.”
Feng Tingting opened her mouth wide, “Two...twenty-four? But how did I hear that, Ms. Lin...Sister Nian Yin got married four years ago. She seemed to have graduated from college at that time. What did she say she was studying...?”
Lin Changhuai felt honored when he mentioned this. He reacted faster than Lin Nianyin, immediately saying: “That one is called a graduate student. It is more powerful than a college student. It can only be taken after college students graduate. It is challenging. Not even one of a hundred college students can pass the exam.”
Sister Nian Yin is quite powerful.” Feng Tingting said.
“No,” Lin Changhuai said with a smile: “Why do you think our production team has focused on the commune and even the county recently? We can be the first to get whatever is available. Isn’t it because of the two children, Nian Yin and Mingchuan? They are so lucky that one of them went to college at the age of sixteen, and the other went to college at the age of fifteen. They are both incredible. If your uncle and Shu were not ill at the time, and there is noise outside now, Nian Yin might be able to be a graduate student. Graduated, right?”
Lin Nianyin nodded, “It takes three years to study for a graduate degree, and I have indeed graduated.”
Lin Changhuai sighed, “It’s a shame that you, my child, are so talented and well-educated, but you have bad luck and have been stuck with us.”
Lin Nianyin shook her head, “I’m fine now.”
Lin Changhuai said: “It’s good, I don’t know what’s going on in your family.”
After he finished speaking, his eyes fell on Lin Nianyin’s belly again, and he said: “But it will be fine when your child is born. Your father is gone, and you have nothing to worry about here, so there is no need to stay here with us. Nian, please send a telegram to Mingchuan when the time comes and ask him to come and pick you up to join the army. That way, you will be free, and you won’t have to look at Dong Cuiping’s old face daily, which is so annoying!”
At this time, Zhao Yufen wiped her hands and came out smiling: “Nian Yin is here, the food is ready, let’s eat together quickly.”
-
“This Dong Cuiping is so outrageous!”
Lin Changhuai frowned and slapped the table, startling Zhao Yufen, who had just brought the water.
“Ouch!” Zhao Yufen stroked her chest to calm down and glanced at Lin Changhuai, “What are you doing? Scared me. Nian Yin is here, too. Be careful to scare her, too!”
Lin Changhuai waved his hand, “You don’t know what’s going on.”
“What’s wrong? Why are you so angry?” Zhao Yufen asked, wiping the water on her hands.
Just after finishing their meal, thinking Lin Nianyin would come over to ask Lin Changhuai about something, everyone else gave them the space.
Zhao Yufen came over after seeing that they were almost done talking.
There was nothing that Lin Nian Yin just said that others should not know, so Lin Changhuai repeated it.
“This Dong Cuiping...” Zhao Yufen raised her head, “What do you think she is thinking? No one around here knows about their family situation. If Nian Yin’s father hadn’t helped Mingchuan to study, how could Mingchuan be where he is today? How could their family build a brick house in the past two years and live such a comfortable life.”
“Who knows what she was thinking.”
Zhao Yufen snorted coldly, “I think she is free!”
Feng Tingting said: “I came back from school today and talked about this matter with Sister Nian Yin. I also asked her if her mother-in-law would help when she gave birth to the baby the next month and was in confinement. I didn’t expect that her mother-in-law would help at all. Even if I don’t have any thoughts, I still want to hit her. This is too vicious.”
Zhao Yufen waved her hand and said: “Dong Cuiping is just a troublemaker. She is so messy and messy. No one around here hasn’t had a quarrel with her. She has been like this her whole life.”
“What should we do?” Feng Tingting asked worriedly: “If it is true what Sister Nian Yin said just now, it is too dangerous for her to live alone now. Dong Cuiping can knock on the door at any time.”
“Tingting is right.” Zhao Yufen looked at Lin Changhuai and said, “I think their family is too busy. Otherwise, you would arrange heavy work for them during this period. It just happens that they are busy now, picking manure, plowing, and raking the ground. All these tasks are left to their families; I wonder if they still have enough free time to think of ways to cause trouble!”
Lin Nianyin said: “It’s useless even if it’s like this. It treats the symptoms but not the root cause. If Dong Cuiping wants to make trouble, he can do it anytime. Honestly, only a person who has been a thief for a thousand days can’t prevent a thief the day before.”
Several people suddenly fell silent.
They all know Dong Cuiping’s temperament very well.
Lin Nianyin had no idea for now, and the house fell into a brief silence.
After a while, Lin Nianyin suddenly looked at Lin Changhuai and asked, “Uncle, does Cheng Hong’s mother-in-law’s family have a younger brother who is old enough and is about to go to the countryside?”
Lin Chenghong is Lin Changhuai’s eldest daughter. Now, she is married to the county town and works in a supply and marketing cooperative in the county town.
Lin Changhuai was stunned momentarily, “How did you know?”
Lin Nianyin said: “I heard about it before.”
Lin Changhuai asked curiously: “Why are you asking him?”
Lin Nianyin organized the words in her mind and said: “Uncle, I want to disturb Sister Cheng Hong for a while and live with them for a while. Of course, I will give you money and tickets to live there. In addition, Mingchuan seems to have recruitment quotas.
You can also introduce her younger brother later, but of course, there is no guarantee that you will be admitted; it depends on their own examination results.”
Lin Nianyin vaguely remembered that Lin Changhuai had approached Wei Mingchuan about this matter.
Wei Mingchuan grew up and studied well, and Lin Changhuai also helped a lot. He promised to help then, and later, I heard that he had recruited troops.
Although it was only in the logistics office, it made the family happy and sent them many things.
This time, I should be able to persuade that family in exchange for this matter.
