Chapter Eighty-Five: It's Just a Matter of Time
Zhao Lan and Fang Xiaocui are indeed good friends who grew up together, the two of them are the same tunzi, both are daughters, but the treatment at home is very different.
Captain Fang is really good to his daughter, so Fang Xiaocui has never suffered much since she was a child, and she lives like a little princess.
Zhao Lan has been like a Cinderella since she was a child, her mother died when she was six years old, and she had a stepmother when she was ten years old, and then she had endless work at home and could never eat.
I don't know how, the two became friends, and when they were seventeen years old, suddenly there was a conscription above, and only one literary female soldier was recruited. But Hongxingtun is only the two of them who are eligible, which means that one of the two of them will be recruited into the army.
At that time, Fang Xiaocui's conditions were better than Zhao Lan's, after all, Fang Xiaocui, who had eaten well, stood there and gave people a feeling of being refreshed, but Zhao Lan, who had not eaten enough for a long time, seemed too thin.
Zhao Lan knew that she didn't have much hope, but she urgently needed this opportunity to get rid of such a family, so she had the cheekiness to beg Fang Xiaocui.
"Please, Xiaocui, I don't want anything, even if I become a soldier in the future, I can give you the salary, I just want to get out of here, you know, if I continue to stay here, my stepmother will definitely sell me." Zhao Lan knelt on the ground, hugged Fang Xiaocui's thigh, and cried bitterly.
Fang Xiaocui saw that her friend was crying so sadly, and she also knew her situation, so she relented, so Zhao Lan joined the army as she wished that year, and since then she has stayed away from everything in Hongxingtun and has never returned.
And Fang Xiaocui originally thought that she still had a chance, but she didn't recruit female soldiers the next year, and she lost the opportunity to get out of the tunzi.
At the beginning, the two good friends still had some correspondence, all of which were letters from Zhao Lan who learned to write in the army and sent them to Fang Xiaocui, but after all, the distance was far away, and no matter how good the friendship was, it would fade, and the two of them had a partner, and then they slowly broke off.
Zhao Lan's development in the art troupe is average, after all, she was recruited from the countryside, and she had to learn singing and dancing from scratch, and compared with some urban soldiers in the troupe, the foundation is much worse.
She also knew that she was not good at business, so she decisively married a company commander two years later, and gave birth to a daughter in the second year after marriage.
"That's all I know, you also know that your mother is inferior to Zhao Lan, so it's rare to hear about Zhao Lan from her mouth." Fang Dahai sighed.
I really don't know if his house hit something unclean this year, since his sister left, the home has not become a home, his father was sad and poisoned, and his body collapsed suddenly, and now he can only lie on the kang to recuperate.
His mother seemed to be crazy, and he felt terrible now when he thought about what his mother had done.
Thinking of this, he sighed unconsciously, when will this day be a head.
"By the way, Yaya, why are you asking this?" Only then did Fang Dahai think about it and ask.
"It's nothing, it's just that Aunt Zhao came to me today, saying that she came back because of my mother's entrustment, and asked me if I wanted to go back to live with her." Fang Yichen said bluntly.
Fang Dahai opened his mouth in surprise, thinking to himself why there was another person who wanted to rob the girl.
"This, this, you and us, how can you let an outsider feed you." Fang Dahai's intuition was against it.
Fang Yichen ignored him, "I'll go and talk to grandpa about this." ”
So she went to Captain Fang's house and showed Captain Fang the letter Zhao Lan gave her.
The letter is mainly divided into three parts, the first is to say hello, the second is to tell the friendship of the year, and the third is to let Zhao Lan look at the love of the year, and be able to raise her girl for a few years, she wants her girl to live in the city and fulfill her original dream.
After reading the letter, Captain Fang didn't speak for a while, "You better ask Teacher Wang if your mother asked her to ghostwrite this letter." ”
"I asked, this letter was indeed written by my mother begging Teacher Wang." Fang Yichen held his cheeks with one hand and knocked on the letter paper on the table with the other.
When Zhao Lan was looking for her today, she gave her the letter directly. After reading the content of the letter, she realized that the illiterate Fang Xiaocui had asked a teacher from the village primary school to help write for her, and then asked Fang Jianwei to help her mail it out when she went to school in the county.
Fang Yichen went to the ghostwriting teacher, and the teacher said that there was indeed such a thing.
That means that Zhao Lan didn't lie, it was indeed Fang Xiaocui who entrusted the child to Zhao Lan.
Grandpa Fang closed his eyes on the kang and was silent for a long time, and then said, "This matter is not in a hurry, you let Grandpa think about it." You also go and ask Dr. Li what she means. ”
This incident also made the master-apprentice relationship between Dr. Li and Fang Yichen leak, but only a few people in the Fang family's big house knew about it.
That's why Captain Fang asked her to go back and ask what Dr. Li meant, you must know that the ancient master is equivalent to his parents, and Captain Fang is a traditional person, so he feels that Dr. Li seems to have more say in this matter than him.
"Well, I'll go back and ask Grandma Li." Fang Yichen nodded.
In fact, you don't need to ask her to already know what a few grandparents will say, they will definitely say that you just decide, and they support her unconditionally.
However, she still went directly to Grandma Li after leaving the gate of Fang's house.
Then he summoned the three masters, took out the letter, and told the cause and effect of today's incident.
"I just can't figure it out, these two people haven't been in touch for about ten years, what kind of friendship can make Zhao Lan willingly raise a daughter for a friend, you must know that I am only eight years old, how can I still have ten years to adulthood, and I am not raising a kitten or a puppy, raising a big living person for ten years, whether it is money or something else, it is not a small amount." Fang Yichen was very puzzled.
"So, she's sure she'll get something out of you before she comes back." He Yongzhi calmly analyzed.
"But I'm just a rural kid, what is there in me that she wants to plot, is it also to get me to sell?" Fang Yichen only thought of this possibility.
"Hehe, you really think you are a Tang monk, and you are immortal after eating you!" Great-grandfather buried her.
"Yaya, what do you think, do you want to go to the city?" That's all Grandma Li cares about.
"I think, what is there to do in the countryside, I don't want to be like those little girls in the tunzi, who worked for the family when they were young, and when they grew up, they married themselves to my brother and brother to make money for marrying my daughter-in-law. Besides, master, you have taught me so much since I was a child, and it is not for me to take root in the countryside, cure the crops in the field, and sing to the seedlings. So I'm definitely going to get out of the countryside. "It's just a matter of time.
