A TV drama from the 90s was once the origin of Yu Yin's nightmares, and its ending theme song deeply influenced her.
Yu Yin's childhood was filled with the sounds of her parents argui...
"Mom, I don't want to go to school. Why can't we have one day of school and six days off?" An'an had been nagging since she woke up in the morning.
Looking at her daughter, who was almost up to her chest, Yu Yin sighed at how time flies!
Before we knew it, Kuai Kuai and Man Man were already three and a half years old!
After finally getting rid of An'an, who was having intermittent episodes of "not wanting to go to school," Yu Yin led Kuai Kuai and Man Man to the daycare.
Hurry up and you'll live up to your name. You run all the way into the nursery. Yu Yin only sees a cloud of dust, like car exhaust.
She walked slowly and leisurely at her own pace. The little one's steps were synchronized and incredibly steady. Moreover, she was remarkably punctual, always arriving on time, never late, not even Yu Yin had ever been late—it was amazing!
June is still a rainy season.
Sitting in her office, Yu Yin looked at the light rain that had started to fall, the misty mountains in the distance, and the lush green trees—all of which were about to leave her life.
It has been 77 years. In just a few months, that remarkable news will spread throughout the country.
In recent years, neither she nor Lu Shurui have put down their books. Lu Shurui loves reading; there isn't a single book in the house that he hasn't read, not even the children's comic books.
Yu Yin was reading with a purpose; she had already read her junior and senior high school textbooks several times. She had also found some practice problems and dragged Lu Shurui along to do them, asking him to explain the ones she didn't understand.
From the day she decided to take the exam back in Shanghai with Lu Shurui, Yu Yin began making various preparations.
Reviewing lessons is one aspect, but space management is the key!
This family of six has considerable daily expenses, and their primary task is to solve the housing problem, which is a huge expense. The children's food, clothing, shelter, and transportation all require money.
Yu Yin has been actively managing the space in recent years, harvesting when the crops are ripe and immediately planting the next crop.
Right now, Yu Yin has so many supplies in her space that she doesn't even know the exact amount. She plans to sell a batch of them over the next two years after arriving in Shanghai to accumulate capital.
In fact, in recent years, Yu Yin has been going up the mountain during her rest time, mainly to collect medicinal herbs.
Because of the successful collaborations between Chu Jianguo and his team in Shanghai, Beijing, and other cities, Yu Yin's other apparent source of income in recent years has been selling various dried mushrooms, dried wild vegetables, and herbs, with herbs making up the majority of her income.
Yu Yin plans to buy a house in Shanghai, so she needs a reasonable source of income.
The last time we sold goods in Shanghai, we had tens of thousands of yuan in cash, but we couldn't make it all public and couldn't explain its origin.
In order to spend her money openly, Yu Yin went to great lengths to collect, grow, and sell medicinal herbs. With this deception, no one knew how much she actually earned, allowing her to cheat a little.
In recent years, not only for deception, herbs have also become quite valuable, especially rare herbs.
In recent years, Yu Yin has earned several thousand yuan from what she gathers from the mountains and what she grows in her space, which is evident to all.
Her salary and Lu Shurui's salary didn't change much. She even got a slight promotion in her administrative rank twice, while Lu Shurui's remained unchanged. The two of them earned just over eighty yuan a month.
They spend little money, and their vegetables are all self-sufficient. They don't need to buy grains and oils for their food, but these are actually produced by Yu Yin Space.
You can save at least 60 yuan a month, which is 720 yuan a year, and over a few years you can save more than 5,000 yuan.
Before deciding to go to Shanghai, Yu Yin specifically counted her assets a few days ago. She had earned more than 7,000 yuan from herbal medicine over the past few years. Yu Yin had collected some precious medicinal herbs a few times, kept some for her own use, and sold the rest.
Yu Yin counted the cash she had. All the cash in total amounted to 45,000 yuan, plus some old items that were worthless now, but she had to keep them.
These are the reasons Yu Yin has the confidence to return to Shanghai with Lu Shurui.
Yu Yin quietly prepared to return to the city, and Lu Shurui also received a letter from his father.
After summer vacation, An'an reluctantly picked up her schoolbag and went back to school.
The person who complains about not wanting to go to school every day doesn't want to go home after school when they play with their classmates. Pingping has to urge them every time.
"Yinyin, my dad wrote a letter." Lu Shurui entered the courtyard excitedly, calling out to Yu Yin, his voice filled with excitement.
"What did he say?" Yu Yin had a rough idea, since Lu's father worked in the education sector and most of his relatives were in related industries.
"My dad said that the country might reopen the college entrance examination!" Lu Shurui whispered in Yu Yin's ear, unable to hide his excitement.
"Really?" Yu Yin feigned a surprised expression.
"Yes, yes, it's true. My dad said many university professors have been exonerated and have gone back to work at their universities." Lu Shurui was overjoyed; his long-cherished dream of going to university had finally come true.
"Yinyin, let's take the exam together!" Lu Shurui said excitedly, then picked up Yu Yin and spun her around several times.
"Put me down! Ugh! How annoying!" Yu Yin was startled and hurriedly patted his shoulder, thinking how childish the man was.
"Haha..." Lu Shurui's hearty laughter echoed far and wide from the courtyard.
That night, after the children had all gone to sleep, Lu Shurui was still excited.
In the past few years, neither he nor Yu Yin had put down their books. Exams were no problem. Finally, they could go back. Ten years had passed, it had been too long!
After Yu Yin finished washing up and entered the room, Lu Shurui, who was lying on the bed, had tears in his eyes. After the initial excitement, he felt a pang of sadness.
"Wife, come here, let me hug you for a while." Lu Shurui opened his arms, waiting for Yu Yin to come to him.
Yu Yin understood him; it had been ten years!
The two lay in bed, embracing each other tightly, so that they wouldn't feel lonely.
"Don't move!" Lu Shurui said in a low voice, shifting his body slightly away unnaturally.
Yu Yin also realized that he was aroused; men, ah!
"Haha... all that sentimentality for nothing, I was defeated by instinct." Yu Yin laughed heartily. It was a rather emotional moment, but the scene suddenly took a sharp turn, making her laugh until her stomach hurt.
Lu Shurui couldn't help but laugh when he thought about it; they were all just ordinary people, driven by basic needs like food and sex.
Since the atmosphere is over, let's just go with the flow and not suppress our feelings!
Yu Yin, who was lying in bed laughing uncontrollably, was suddenly silenced by a gag, her laughter swallowed.
Before long, their clothes were thrown out of the mosquito net, and a series of groans came out, making even the moon ashamed and go home!
The next day, seeing the clothes scattered all over the floor, the two were surprised by how intense their battle had been the night before. They quickly got up to clean up, as the child would be getting up soon.
Lu Shurui was in a good mood and went downstairs to cook.
After the children got up, they could feel their parents' happy mood. Although they didn't know why, it didn't stop them from laughing along.
No matter how happy you are, life goes on.
Suppressing the urge to laugh, it wasn't the time to loudly proclaim it. Lu Shurui adjusted her mindset and left first with Ping An and An An, while Yu Yin led Kuai Kuai and Man Man to set off as well.
