Stride on the Journey (10) (https://www.clewxc.com/book/202108/23/12973.html first release)
Return to the journey(10)
Don’t be in a hurry to buy a dress. Find a weekend to sort out some things.
Everyone who knows Tongtong and Siye now knows where they come from and what they do. Now that you live in the city and your income is pretty good, do you think your parents don’t need to take care of them at home?
There will still be people who criticize you for your filial piety.
Although since we met once, the time from late autumn to the beginning of winter is not short, and no one has been to my hometown, but it is my fault that I and Siye don't care about it.
what to do?
You still have to go back! See how to arrange it properly.
When I go back this time, I specifically looked for Lao Shi and drove the ox cart to follow him. I will go back today and come back today. I won’t bring anything else with me, just half a cart of grain, some cloth, and cotton.
These days will pass.
After that, let’s see what they want to do. Should they continue to stay in the town, or come to the county town. Coming to the county town is like an ordinary small courtyard. One family buys one courtyard, and it only costs more than a dozen dollars.
After going back, I first went to Lin Yutong's house and unloaded half of the things. I asked Yougen to lead the way for the rest, and asked Lao Shi to drive to Jin's house.
There were only wintersweets at home, and I was shocked when I saw the things and the current third child.
It's like he's become a different person.
Lamei pulled up the stool, "Sit...sit first...I'll call my parents..."
The house is still the same, nothing has changed.
Tongtong, who had never seen this body's biological mother, was stunned for a moment when he saw an old but still neat woman, and then called her mother.
Shui'e wiped her hands on her apron. This third child looked more like a young lady than the young lady of the Shen family. She responded quietly, "You're back?"
Tongtong nodded, "You're back. Where is my father?"
Chief Lin, who had been cleaning himself outside, came in and took a look at his daughter and son-in-law, "...I have been to the place where you originally lived. I knew that you had moved to the school, so I didn't bother you. I went to the place where you were studying.
It’s not good either…”
Si Ye said: "As you said, the concierge Lao Zhao is very familiar with us. If you tell me who you are looking for, he will send a message. If there is something urgent in the future, just go find it." After saying that, he glanced at Tongtong and said, "
We all have errands at school. Although we are school workers, we earn enough to spend our time. What about home? What do you think? If we want to go to the county town, we will buy a yard and have everything. All we have to do is move there."
Chief Lin quickly waved his hand, "It's easy to go, but it's hard to make a living there!"
Lin Yutong looked inside and outside, "My eldest sister hasn't come back?"
Shui'e then said: "Your eldest sister has been betrothed. She said that a textile factory is going to be opened in the provincial capital and she can hire someone. The couple has gone out to run for their lives! As long as they can make enough money to keep them from starving to death!" She then looked at the second child and said, "Maybe it's a match.
I got married a year ago! He is the driver of a relative of the Shen family. When I leave this time, I will take your sister to the capital. The couple has a driver and the other is in charge of cleaning..."
For them, this is a good marriage! It doesn't sound good to say that they are servants, but it really saves their worries. They take care of food and housing, provide materials to make clothes every year, and get wages every month. If the sky falls, there will be someone to support it.
Wait, the storm is coming, what's the matter with shutting down people?
Lamei blushed, obviously very satisfied with such a thing.
When she first arrived, thanks to Lamei taking care of her, Tongtong secretly took five oceans from her bag and gave it to Lamei who was standing by the side without saying a word. She was stunned for a moment.
Then he lowered his eyelids and closed them secretly.
If it were given to the family, no matter how unkind the family was to their daughter, it would be impossible to go out with such money.
Tongtong asked, "What are your plans? How many acres of land will you plant at home?"
Farming means making a living.
Siye stopped Tongtong who was about to continue talking and asked Yougen: "The post office is recruiting apprentices, will you go?"
It's a tough place now, and you have to walk to deliver letters to the countryside. But it's relatively safe and secure. It's definitely possible to earn a living at a small post office in a small county town.
Chief Lin thought it would work. If his son had a place to go, where could he and his wife not find food? Just carrying water and delivering water to others, cutting and delivering firewood, wasn't that a living? Besides, he could also do the work of pulling a cart.
!
Tongtong nodded, that's it, find a neat yard in the county where you can live for decades. As for the two acres of land at home, just sell it to the Shen family directly and quit the job.
The Shen family knew the news in the county, and the price they gave was very fair. They couldn't keep their mother as a hard worker anymore, so they left the matter as it was, "Let's take care of it first, and I'll send someone to deliver the news tomorrow."
Then we went to the Jin family. There were two other boys in the Jin family. What did the family want?
The first three members of the Jin family have all gone their separate ways, the fifth child has grown to fifteen, and the sixth child has reached thirteen. Si Ye’s only way to get in is the post office, and the sixth child is as big as a root. Ask him, "
How about you two go to the post office quickly?"
If there was a companion, Lao Liu would naturally be willing. He nodded hurriedly, "I'm happy."
Lao Wu didn't want to go. He kept his head silent for a long time and then said: "If you can buy me five acres of land, I will take care of my parents, and the land will be mine from now on."
Don’t panic if you have the land!
This was easy to handle. Si Ye went to Shen's house and turned around and took two land deeds. "They are both irrigated fields, one with three acres and one with two acres. Give the three acres to your parents, and you can take the two acres, is that okay?"
"
feasible!
Siye asked Tongtong to get money again, and took five silver coins, "I'll go back and clean up the house. I may not always be in the county, and I can't tell where I will go in the future. The war is in chaos, and communication is not that convenient."
I know! This money is enough!
As for the sixth child of the Jin family, Si Ye thought about it and spent a silver dollar to buy the dilapidated yard from Mrs. Wu. "Take care of it and make it livable! Wait until spring starts..." "Wait a minute."
It's spring. Let's bring some wood and other things from our hometown. Call dad and fifth brother to come over and tidy up everything so that we can settle down." The sixth child sat on the edge of the kang, touching here and there, feeling very curious.
Si Ye felt that it was not easy for this older child. When he said no, he entrusted Mrs. Wu to spend some money at most, but the child was excited, "Where is the life? I have to carry it when I am hungry at home."
, I’m out... I’ll be hungry if I have an errand...” What else are you thinking about?
That’s right! What else do you want?
Back then, the two of them came out and bought a house on the street. The house was bigger at the back and narrower at the front, but it was right on the street, with a medicine shop next to it. Did Shui'e have anything?
Cheng Shuan was happy when he saw this, "I wonder if we can do a tea business?"
Why not?
As a woman, get a teapot, grab a handful of tea leaves, and boil it for a copper. Just sit here and drink. Nowadays, when we are walking back and forth, who is not thirsty and wants to drink water?
At first glance, everything is settled. Anyway, the basics that should be given are all provided. The rest is really up to you to figure out your own way. But the most basic things are settled.
Siye and Tongtong had dealt with trivial matters and really had to be busy with their own affairs.
For example, that information book, aren't they all in foreign languages? Let's read them separately.
As a result, the husbands and students who began to borrow books from the library discovered that this little librarian never left his hands with books all day long. He was holding a dictionary and comparing translations.
The school has a foreign language teacher, who learned it from the priest of the provincial church, and is fluent in German. When he saw Tongtong’s translation, he took it over and took a look at it. When he saw the vocabulary that had appeared, he opened it and asked Tongtong the same vocabulary.
Tong, do you know me?
Yes! I know.
Write it down and mark the meaning.
I always want to teach her how to read: "..." Yours is printed, and handwriting should look like this. Then patiently tell her what to read.
If you study hard in foreign languages, then in mathematics or other subjects, if a teacher tries it, he will feel that he is very talented.
You ask her if she has the book "Advanced Mathematical Analysis"? She immediately recommends you, "Go to the second floor of the third bookshelf and look for "Calculus."
Yes! Both books are about calculus. However, some books in the library only have a single copy. This one has been borrowed. If you want to borrow it again, you can only borrow other books with similar content.
Then when you borrow a book, you will find that the first person on the library card to borrow a book is Lin Yutong.
"Have you read the book?"
Oh! I have a lot of free time, so I watched your class.
Have you watched it?
Got it!
Then you can discuss certain chapters and topics with her, and then you find that she is right.
It is a pity that such people do not go to school.
With her family's conditions, she can now continue to go to school.
Mr. Cai also suggested this to Si Ye, "It would be a pity not to study. We are only fifteen."
"She prefers to have free time and learn what she likes."
That's it! That's all. Mr. Cai said: "Then when the exam comes, I will take the exam! She should be given a diploma."
You can graduate from high school in two years.
Nowadays, some universities have begun to recruit female students. As long as they graduate from high school, they can apply.
But this is a matter for the future. In this day and age, it is superfluous to imagine that in the future.
Tongtong had just tidied up the library that day, but the door was pushed open, and a rather foreign-looking girl came in. As soon as she entered, she tilted her head and smiled at Lin Yutong.
Lin Yutong was stunned for a moment and found this person in his mind, "Miss Shen?"
"I hate it! What's your name, Miss Shen?" The other party came in step by step, stepping on the green brick floor of the library with her black leather shoes, "I've heard that there is a powerful administrator here, who was originally an escort. I was thinking, this
Who is it? As soon as I heard it was from Shenjia Town, I guessed it was you! You said the school is only so big, why haven’t you met her before? "
This young lady had a rickshaw delivered to her door, and the girl picked her up after school. Then she got on the bus and took her back. She didn't stay at school at all except for classes. She wanted to see her. Didn't she never have the chance to meet her?
The other party was very embarrassed, "When you came to study, I was clamoring to take you with me, but my father was an old-fashioned man and refused to let you go. This made me embarrassed to see you."
It would be great to be able to read along! From what I remember, he is not a high-maintenance person. On the contrary, he is a bit naive and naive!
Tongtong pulled her to sit down, "Didn't I come here too? Let's not talk about this..." she asked, "Isn't it class time? Why are you here?"
"I just want to see you and see if you are doing well." She whispered, "I thought you liked my cousin, but who knew that you and Jin Si had been in love for a long time, and you even hid it from me!
I don’t believe that he learned it from outside my private school by eavesdropping! You must have secretly taught him behind his back!"
Tongtong: "..." OK! If you think it's reasonable, just think so. The other party looked around and saw no one came, so he said again: "I can't take you to the county seat. If I go to the capital, if you want
Go, let’s go together..."
But I don’t think it would be a good thing to go to Beijing without the foundation laid in these two years!
She shook her head decisively, "You go first, and when I go, I can join you."
The other party was obviously disappointed for a moment, and then said sadly: "You are indeed... different..."
Many people should be like Lin Yutong. They have changed: they used to only say 'yes', but now they can say 'no'!
