Chapter 64: Gambling and Fighting
The next day, Qin Yin and Wen Yuan took a car to the provincial capital. It's the same as a provincial capital that is a ride from morning to night. After they got out of the car, they encouraged each other and said goodbye, and after that, there was no one in the sea of people. After Qin Yin said goodbye to Wen Yuan, he went directly to Chen Lai's restaurant. When Chen Lai saw the sound of the piano, he was naturally so happy that he burst into tears.
Chen Lai, the first batch of "water testers" after the reform and opening up, and the "Lailai Restaurant" he operated, are ushering in a golden age in the spring breeze of reform and opening up. Chen Lai made a lot of money, food, clothing, housing and transportation changed with each passing day, wearing floral clothes, in addition to the original pork, the restaurant also had chicken, duck, goose and many other meats, the room where he lived was replaced with a large bed, and the original bicycle at the door was replaced by a tricycle. Compared with Chen Lai a few months ago, Chen Lai in front of Qin Yin seems to be more and more urban, full of anger in his speech, and seems to be more confident.
Qin Yin lived in a restaurant, helped clean up, and told Chen Lai about the college entrance examination and admission. Chen Lai immediately agreed, and when it was dawn, he immediately contacted his sister in Hong Kong.
The next day, Chen Lai called Qinyin, drove a tricycle to the post office, and sent a telegram to Chen Qian. The message was drafted by Qin Yin and the full text is as follows:
"Qinyin was admitted to the Southern University of Economics as a substitute trainee, and there is no substitute training unit, can I contribute?"
After sending the telegram, Chen Lai and Qinyin returned to the restaurant, and waited for a reply while it was open. Until the afternoon, Chen Lai estimated that his sister should have an answer, so he took the piano to the post office to consult. As expected, Chen Qian replied. Qin Yin took a look, and Chen Qian's reply was: "Woman." ”
Qinyin wondered, and kept asking the post office staff: "Is there a mistake in the telegram?" It should be a good word, and it is typed as a woman, right?"
After checking with the staff at the post office, they told Chen Lai and Qinyin that yes, the content of the telegram was indeed the word "woman".
Chen Lai and Qin Yin returned to the restaurant, arguing over Chen Qian's reply. Chen Lai thinks that the word "woman" of my sister must be interesting and should be translated well. Qinyin insisted that Chen Qian must have accidentally typed the word "good" into the word "woman". The two argued about this for a long time, until late at night.
Chen Lai comforted Qinyin and said, "Don't worry, my sister and I like you very much, and we will definitely help you." Even if my sister doesn't pay for it, I can provide for you to go to college. ”
Qin Yin said blankly: "You shouldn't send me to Daipei in the name of a restaurant, right?"
Chen Lai smirked: "Let's find a way." ”
That night, Qin Yin was very tired, and she hadn't rested for several days, and the fatigue of the journey and thinking about whether she could be substituted for training made her feel a little sad. That night, Kotoin fell ill.
Until the next morning, Chen Lai touched her forehead, felt hot and hot, and hurriedly drove her to the hospital on a tricycle. Chen Lai takes great care of the piano sound when he is sick, and it goes without saying that he cares for him. The sick Qin Yin was weak, thinking of being in the unaccompanied provincial city, thinking of Chen Lai, who had been taking care of him, and the corners of Qin Yin's eyes were often full of tears.
The postman rode his bicycle and sent another telegram to Chen Lai. It was sent by Chen Qian. The message said: I will return within a few days.
Chen Lai knew that Chen Qian was coming back. He told Kotone the news. Kotone struggled to read the message, and seemed to see the hope of going to college in her heart, and her heart was full of joy. She plans to wait for Chen Qian to come back, and she must work hard to win Chen Qian's help and realize her dream in life.
In order to please Qinyin, Chen Lai made a bet with Qinyin: "I guess my sister came back this time, and it must be for you to train on your behalf." I know my sister. ”
Qin Yin smiled wryly: "Thank you, I hope so." Otherwise, I really don't know what to do. ”
Chen Lai touched Qinyin's forehead and said that it was better than before. Then he continued to decoction the medicine for the sound of the piano. Qin Yin looked at Chen Lai's busy figure, and secretly congratulated herself in her heart that she had met a kind-hearted person, and met someone who could be trusted for a while in times of crisis.
Two days have passed, and Qin Yin is recovering well. While Chen Lai and Qinyin were running the restaurant, they waited for Chen Qian to come back with peace of mind.
Chen Qian arrived as scheduled, with a smile on her face. Qin Yin looked at Chen Qian's expression, a feeling of comfort, happiness and calmness, and couldn't help but have a premonition in her heart. However, Chen Qian and Chen Lai were not in a hurry to talk about Qinyin, and the sisters and brothers opened and closed their mouths on topics such as business, investment, and making money.
Until dinner, the guests in the restaurant were gone, and Chen Qian, Chen Lai, and Qin Yin sat down to eat together. Chen Qian suddenly asked about Qinyin: "It's been a long time since we separated, and I haven't had a chance to tell you." Do you know that when you mentioned Yang Yun's matter in the special economic zone, you reminded me of the matter of looking for helpers, why did I keep quiet?"
Qin Yin secretly said in her heart, wow, I almost forgot about things for so long, how can Chen Qian still remember? She thought so in her heart, but she looked at Chen Qian blankly on her face and shook her head.
Chen Qian seemed to have guessed Qin Yin's thoughts: "You must be thinking, how can I remember such a trivial matter so well, right?" She looked at Qin Yin, and then said: "I know that you will come to me sooner or later, so I reminded myself that I must tell you next time we meet." That's because Yang Yun, with her status and conditions, no longer looks down on me, an investment businessman. She's ambitious and won't be my helper. ”
Koto ate noncommittally, "mmmm, mmmm" perfunctory.
"You are perfunctory, you only care about your own affairs, but you don't care about people. Chen Qian said, "Originally, I didn't want to talk about you, but since you came to the door today, I am willing to help you, so I will also talk about you by the way." ”
"Huh?" Qinyin heard Chen Qian say that she was willing to help herself, so she also came to her senses, "Would you like to ask my sister for advice?"
Chen Qian said: "You have a dream in your heart, a light in your eyes, in order to realize your dream, dare to gamble and dare to fight." But perhaps it's a common problem among young people, you are so focused on pursuing your dreams that you ignore your emotions and become confused. ”
"Yes, yes!" Qin Yin continued Chen Qian's words, "However, I have figured it out now, and it is much better." ”
"Figured it out?" Chen Qian looked at Qin Yin in surprise, obviously had something to talk to Qin Yin alone, and glanced at Chen Lai, so Chen Lai took advantage of the excuse to buy something and went out.
After Chen Lai went out, Chen Qian said straightforwardly: "My brother likes you." You know what?"
Actually, Qin Yin's liking for Chen Lai was felt, but she didn't expect Chen Qian to speak so directly. Speechless for a moment.
Chen Qian had already seen through Qinyin's thoughts, and said: "Anyway, there are only two women here, you and me, let's just say some things." She glanced at the sound and continued: "You think you are miserable, but there are people who are more bitter than you, you think you are tired, there are people who are more tired than you, you think you are working hard enough, but you have to work hard, otherwise, you will lose for the rest of your life." ”
Qin Yin muttered, "You mean Chen Lai, right?"
"That's right, it's Chen Lai. Since he met you, he has become more motivated and sensible. After you went home to take the college entrance examination, he chattered and begged me to help you. Chen Qian said, and suddenly asked Qin Yin seriously: "Do you know why my reply to you is the word woman?"
Qin Yin lowered her head, "Oh, it turned out that it wasn't a clerical error, it was indeed the word woman?"
"Yes. Chen Qian said, "Since you left the provincial capital, I can see my brother's various behaviors, he loves you very much, and he often dazes for you when you are away." ”
Qin Yin listened to Chen Qian's narration, and her heart suddenly moved: "He didn't tell me." ”
"He was afraid that you would refuse, so he never told you. But I'm his sister, and I know his mind. Chen Qian said, "The reason why I replied to the word woman is to tell you that if you are a woman, if you are combined with my brother, it will be good, otherwise you will be an ordinary woman." ”
Qin Yin listened to Chen Qian's words silently, and she finally understood that Chen Qian did not refuse to invest in Dai Pei, but the premise was that she had to promise to marry Chen Lai in the future, otherwise she would not invest in Dai Pei.
Isn't this a kind of exchange? Qin Yin was embarrassed and agreed, this kind of exchange is not what he wants in his heart; if he does not agree, the matter of Dai Pei will be ruined, and the dream of going to college may come to naught. Qin Yin didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and even asked Chen Qian, "You say, what should I do?"
