Chapter Twenty-Nine: Returning in Vain
Early the next morning, Han Rin arrived at Lou's house early, and before coming, he went to the canteen of the guest house to cut two taels of meat, and asked the master to ask for a big stick bone that had been boiled twice for rhubarb.
Yesterday, all the tiles were turned, but the eaves and the seams of the sink had not been treated, and Lou Jingping originally planned to paste with the adhesive made of yellow mud and broken straw stalks, but this thing would not last long.
Lou Jingping wanted to buy some lime, but this thing was expensive, and it had to be approved by the production team to buy it, and the supply and marketing cooperatives of the commune were in short supply of all kinds of materials, and even if they were approved, they might not be able to buy them.
After Han Rin found out, he managed to get some lime, since he wanted to repair it, he would repair it all at once, and when he got it, there was no man in the family, and Lou Yanni also asked someone to repair it.
The sleeves of the slightly washed shirt were rolled up, revealing the muscular little arms, Han Rin was about to go to the room with the ash bucket and a scraper, Zuo Weiguo pushed open the courtyard door and entered the courtyard.
"Why are you here?" Zuo Weiguo frowned and looked at Han Rin, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.
He came today to tell Grandma Lou about Lou Yanni's going to be a substitute teacher, but he didn't expect to see Han Rin as soon as he entered the door, and then saw Han Rin who took off his military uniform, dressed in a homely manner, and he was wearing Lou Jingping's clothes, which was slightly ill-fitting.
Han Rin handed the ash bucket to Lou Jingping on the roof, turned around and walked in front of Zuo Weiguo, and stretched out his hand to entertain the guests as the male host, "Hello, I don't know what happened when Officer Zuo came to the house at this time." ”
This is his Yanni's home, but not your Han Rin's home! Zuo Weiguo puffed out his eyes, his eyes were full of anger, and he wouldn't reach out to shake hands with Han Rin.
"Han Rin, who's that?" Lou Yanni was hurrying the last few stitches of her shoes, and when she heard the voice come out, she saw Zuo Weiguo standing opposite Han Rin at a glance, and her face immediately fell.
Hearing Lou Yanni's voice, Zuo Weiguo's gaze eased, but when his eyes stopped on the cloth shoes in Lou Yanni's hand, his eyes immediately changed again, in his last life, he heard Lou Yanni say that their family's shoes have always been made by Lou's grandmother, looking at the size of the shoes in her hand, it is obviously a man's size.
So, this is a shoe made for Han Rin?
Lou Yanni put her shoes in the basket and walked out to stand with Han Rin, "Director Zuo, what are you doing here?" ”
Yesterday, Zuo Weiguo stopped her from saying anything about going to the commune primary school to be a substitute teacher, and after Lou Yanni refused, she only thought he was talking nonsense, and didn't take it to heart, but she didn't expect him to find a home today.
If she had known that he would be coming today, she should have been too blunt yesterday.
This will Zuo Weiguo has mixed feelings in his heart, and when he met the cotton spinning, he deceived himself, thinking that he could temporarily accept Yanni and others, and he told himself that it was only temporary.
But when he saw Han Rin in Lou's house as if he were in his own home, getting along happily with Lou Jingping and his twins, the jealousy and sourness in his heart almost overwhelmed him.
At this time, he roared in his heart and wanted to pull Lou Yanni to his side and tell her that he was the man she was destined to rely on.
"Yanni, haven't you seen the letter I wrote to you?" Zuo Weiguo's eyes implied heartache and deep affection that only he could understand.
Letter? Han Rin looked at Lou Yanni, Lou Yanni frowned slightly, the letter was really written by Zuo Weiguo, if she remembered correctly, Zuo Weiguo had already married Xing Xiaojuan at that time, and asked him, "What letter?" ”
Zuo Weiguo's heart ached sharply, and he closed his eyes to ease his mood, he closed his eyes and forcibly suppressed the sourness in his heart, "It's nothing, I'm here for the matter of a substitute teacher in the commune." ”
Because of the events of the early years, at this time, the teacher still had a stinky old nine name on his head, and there were not many people who were willing to be teachers.
Substitute teachers do not have the establishment and cannot eat the national food, and the salary is also small, except for the teachers who were originally assigned, they are generally selected by the teacher's family or the production team.
The situation is complicated, the level of teachers is uneven, and in fact, many primary and secondary school teachers are not qualified to teach at all.
"The commune primary school now needs a Chinese teacher, and needs young people with knowledge above the beginning of Chinese to serve as substitute teachers." Zuo Weiguo knew that because of Xing Xiaojuan, he was in a hurry and made mistakes, so he repeatedly left a bad impression in Lou Yanni's heart.
"You don't have to refuse in a hurry, this job has nothing to do with me, I just pass it on my behalf, you can discuss it with your family and then make a decision."
Grandma Lou didn't seem to be at home, only Lou Jingping was working on the roof in the yard, originally when he saw Zuo Weiguo coming, he was ready to come down, but seeing Han Rin dealing with it, he thought about it and continued to work on the roof.
Hearing the substitute teacher, Lou Jingping was a little moved, if he had a stable job, he would feel much more at ease when he left home, but this was Lou Yanni's own business, and it should be up to her to make her own decisions.
Han Rin also looked at Lou Yanni and said softly, "Do you want to go?" ”
In the past few days, Han Rin is also worried about Lou Yanni's work, Hu Zhengjun is in the provincial capital, and both husband and wife have connections, so there is no big problem in arranging to enter the factory.
But the current situation of the Lou family, Lou Yanni will definitely not agree to go to the provincial capital, and Han Rin does not know about the local commune.
He originally planned to send a stipend to Lou Yanni every month after returning to the team, since he said that he would take on the responsibility of supporting the family with her, for him, it makes no difference whether he is from now on or after he gets married.
The work of a substitute teacher is very suitable for the situation of the Lou family, close to home and has a long vacation, taking care of the students at the same time, but also taking care of the family, although it is not to eat commercial food, but there is also a fixed salary every month.
There is no need to work during class time, although you have to work collectively during the winter and summer vacations, but there is not much farm work during this time, especially during the winter vacation.
Lou Yanni has not wavered, but she doesn't want to accept Zuo Weiguo's affection, she shook her head without hesitation.
Although the job is very suitable, since Lou Yanni is unwilling, Han Rin looked at Zuo Weiguo, "Officer Zuo, thank you for your hard work on this trip, but we have other plans." ”
"I'm asking Yanni, it's none of your business." Zuo Weiguo couldn't suppress his attitude towards Han Rin, as long as he thought of his identity, he almost wanted to go crazy, "This matter is related to Yanni's future, I think we should discuss it with the old people in the family." ”
Han Rin has a very strong momentum, but before Zuo Weiguo passed away in his last life, he was also a famous local farmer entrepreneur, and he was used to seeing a lot of big scenes, and because of his rebirth, his momentum was not much weaker than Han Rin.
"That's what I meant, Officer Zuo, I said it yesterday, thank you for your kindness, but I don't need it." Lou Yanni also knows that although teachers are looked down upon now, this job is still rare.
She refused not because she didn't know what to do, but subconsciously felt that as soon as she took over this job, there would be countless troubles, thinking about Xing Xiaojuan's hostility towards herself, Lou Yanni felt that it was better to stay away from Zuo Weiguo.
Moreover, she has her own plans for how to support her family.
