The Year (53)

"Master, I now know why you persuaded me so much. Li Guofang's voice seemed to cry and laugh, "I should be like Brother Chunlai, find a local object, and set up a home in the county." I can live a smooth life. I used to think I wouldn't regret it, but now I know that I regret it. ”

"Then what are you going to do?" Lin Yutong asked.

"My brother called me to come, just to ask me to come and see it in person. It's a death story. Li Guofang looked at Lin Yutong with a pleading face, "Master, I want to go to Ge Hongbing and ask him for a word in person." Whether it's good or bad, there should be an explanation. ”

Ge Hongbing's home is in the family home of a metal processing factory. The conditions of the family are similar to those of the Lin family. When Lin Yutong and the fourth master brought Li Guofang over, Ge Hongbing was sitting under the earthquake-proof shelter in the courtyard reading a book.

An earthquake-proof shed is a plastic shed that is supported by a few wooden sticks. There was a makeshift wooden plank with a simple futon on it, and it was clear that Ge Hongbing had stayed here at night. He was wrapped in a thick cotton jacket, with a hat, and his feet were stamped one after another.

"Guofang?" Ge Hongbing stood up, very stunned. Then when he saw Lin Yutong and the fourth master, his face was embarrassed for a moment, "Didn't you tell you to stay at home?"

Li Guofang looked around, "You live here?"

Ge Hongbing nodded, "What about the child, didn't I leave you money?"

"Why don't you say goodbye?" Li Guofang didn't mention the child, but only looked at Ge Hongbing.

Ge Hongbing pointed to the earthquake-proof shed in the back, "Take you and your children to live here, when I go to school, will you and your children live here? What to eat? What to drink? I have a little way to ......."

"I only ask you, why didn't you say goodbye?" Li Guofang looked at Ge Hongbing stubbornly, "Are you not going to go back?" ”

"I don't know. Ge Hongbing looked at Li Guofang's eyes very frankly, "After graduating from college, where I will be assigned and where I will go, I can't say it." In the future, I will send you and the child money on time. He wiped his face, but his eyes were red, "Our hairy eggs, okay?"

Li Guofang looked at Ge Hongbing, and tears flowed, "That is to move the mind of not following me." ”

Ge Hongbing shook his head: "I said, I will take care of you." ”

Li Guofang smiled sarcastically, "I understand." She reached out and wiped away her tears, then glanced at the shadows that flashed behind the curtain of the door in the room, "We didn't get a marriage certificate in the first place. If I hadn't found it, no one would have known that you had been married in your hometown, would they? But, Ge Hongbing, I'll tell you today. I don't have anything else, but I still have the backbone. From now on, Mao Dan will be my own child, and it has nothing to do with you. I don't want your money. I can raise children. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other. ”

After speaking, he turned around, "Master, let's go." ”

Lin Yutong glanced into the room again before answering. Pull the fourth master and go back. This Ge Hongbing's family is really ...... He refused to even come out and show his face.

Ge Hongbing caught up and grabbed Li Guofang, "Guofang, I didn't mean that. ”

Li Guofang lifted him away, "I'm from the countryside, but I'm not stupid." ”

It wasn't until the small courtyard that Li Guofang cried. Yin Wei came over to help Li Guofang watch the child for a while, and when she saw someone coming back, she looked at Lin Yutong, "What's the matter?"

Lin Yutong shook his head.

"What do you plan to do in the future?" Lin Yutong asked, turning his head.

Li Guofang put away her tears, "My eldest brother wants to ask me to go back." But I just went back like this, and told my brother and sister-in-law to be unable to raise their heads in the tunzi. As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at Lin Yutong, "I want to rent a place to live here with the master." It's just to build a shed in this yard for me and my children to live in. I give the rent money. I saw it all when I came, at the gate of the train station, even if I sold some tea eggs, I and my children could be fed. I went to the surrounding villages to collect eggs, and then came back and boiled them and sold them. I can get a dollar or two a day. Even selling melon seeds at the door of the cinema makes a lot of money. My family is very well-behaved, I carry the child on my back, and I don't delay anything. ”

"My sister-in-law said that this woman can live without a man. "She's a little stubborn. looked at Lin Yutong.

Before Lin Yutong could speak, Yin Wei cried first. She also stayed in Gushantun, "Back then, if it weren't for the help of Captain Li, the secretary of the Wu branch, I wouldn't have been able to settle in Gushantun, and I couldn't go out of Gushantun and became a recommended worker, peasant and soldier cadet." She looked at the fourth master, "I have to help her." Even if you want to go back to the Northeast, you can't go back now. The child is only a little bit old, and there is a ...... on the road I can't explain it. It's just an old family member who came to our house to visit relatives and stayed for a year and a half, so it doesn't matter. ”

The fourth master thought about it, and then said to Li Guofang: "I will be busy with your master immediately." An old man and three children in the family rely on the eldest sister to take care of them alone, which is definitely not good. If you want, you can come to my house to help, and usually cook and help the eldest sister. Take care of food and shelter, and give you thirty a month. You don't think it's going to work. In the capital, there is no hukou, and the state does not allow individuals to sell things for the time being. Your way of making money is not good for the time being. Later, I can't say for sure. ”

Lin Yutong thought about it, this can be done. I can't take care of it, isn't this a ready-made manpower? And this girl has no character. It can be regarded as knowing the roots.

I heard the fourth master say again, "Your work in the county, I'll say hello to you." When the time comes, you can go back if you want to. Do you think it's okay?"

Li Guofang responded without saying a word, "Okay! I can watch the children cook." Master, you just have to rest assured. ”

The courtyard is a utility room opposite the kitchen. Actually, there's not much in there.

"That's where the people of the city live. How warm. Li Guofang is very satisfied with this place.

The house is heated. After cleaning up, I set up a wooden bed and a set of bedding. Although the tables, chairs and benches are all old, she can make up for them at home.

Lin Yutong packed a bag of his children's old clothes and bedding and sent them over. I took two more bags of milk powder and two bags of malt milk essence, "If the milk is not enough, remember to give it to the child." When he is a little older and weaned, he will order milk for the child. Don't come out of me. ”

Not to mention the original friendship, just thinking about the fact that people will show their children to them in the future, they have to be kind to her. Money and things are trivial.

She is better to other people's children, and she can be more dedicated when she shows her children.

People's hearts may not be able to change people's hearts back, but if you don't treat others with sincerity, why should people be sincere to you.

Li Guofang sniffed, "I know, master." I just want them to know that I can live well without him. ”

Lin Yutong smiled, "Ambitious." You can do it. When the policy is good and the children are older, the way you said to make money is really good. ”

Li Guofang smiled, "Then I'll wait." ”

The family didn't think there was anything wrong with this arrangement. The old man suffered, and Yin Kun stayed in the countryside for many years. Guo Yonghong and Li Guofang are still fellow countrymen.

No one thinks what's wrong with the rural people? The two sides are quite compatible.

Yin Kun also felt that Li Guofang was ambitious, "Big sister, if you have this courage, if you want to make money, you can't go wrong at the first time." He gave Li Guofang an idea, "You ask your family to get some local products, any fungus mushrooms." A sack of this thing, my brother will make you a good profit of seventy or eighty yuan. As long as the things arrive, you don't need to go out, brother, I will wrap you up. "This stuff is too tight. Someone has to collect it sporadically in the Northeast, but if there is no local snake, it will definitely not work. After all, it is not allowed. But Li Guofang is different, her brother is still the captain, just the villages and towns around their tunzi, scattered collection, will not make a lot of money.

"Really?" Li Guofang was surprised. "It's not worth it! I'll send a telegram in a moment. ”

Lin Yutong didn't care about them. At this time, you have to be willing to use your brain to earn money, and you can find money no matter what.

With Li Guofang at home, it was suddenly much easier. Children who grew up in the countryside have life in their eyes. When I got up early in the morning, I made breakfast for the family.

Yin Wei stared at the child, Li Guofang washed the child's diapers, washed clothes, inside and outside the house, and cleaned up neatly.

It was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, that is, the end of February in the solar calendar. Lin Yutong and the fourth master, they went to sign up with all the baggage.

At this time, signing up is really just signing up. There is no tuition, at most it is the relationship between the student's transfer of household registration and grain and oil.

There is a subsidy of twenty-four yuan per person per month.

This is equivalent to the wages received by the apprentices in the factory. There is certainly no problem in supporting yourself.

But the more confusing thing is that the students must live in the school.

As a result, Lin Yutong and the fourth master could only be weekend couples. The fourth master's eyebrows can trap mosquitoes. The key is to be reluctant to have children. I had a futon with me, but I just wanted a place to rest at noon.

The two told the teacher about their situation, and the response was, "At least the freshman year has to live on campus." ”

Lin Yutong turned around and whispered, "No matter what, we have to go home at noon every day." "Otherwise, the child will not get used to it.

The fourth master responded, and first sent Lin Yutong to the girls' dormitory, and there were already people in the dormitory at this time.

Four shelf beds, the upper floor is full, and there are two empty below. One against the door, the other against the window.

At this time, the school dormitory was unheated. Neither of these is a good location.

A ...... of thirty or so Eldest sister, when she saw Lin Yutong stunned at the door, she greeted, "Come in." ”

This should be a classmate. There was a child standing next to her, all seven or eight years old.

"The child also came along?" Lin Yutong probed in, and saw that there was a family of three inside, and there was nothing inconvenient about the dormitory, so he called the fourth master in.

I chose a bed by the window.
