Chapter 169 Departure
The eldest sister, the second sister and Grandma Cheng were all reluctant to let Lin Qing go. Grandma Cheng even gave Lin Qing money secretly, meaning that it was not like being at home there and she would have to spend money on food, clothing and other expenses.
Lin Qing was not willing to take the old woman's money, so Grandma Cheng looked unhappy.
"Grandma, I definitely can't accept the money. If my second uncle and second aunt find out, I won't be able to face her anymore. So, can you prepare some things for me to take with me?" Lin Qing coaxed softly.
Grandma Cheng rolled her eyes and said, "That's fine."
Lin Qing also rolled her eyes, held her grandmother's hand, and smiled: "Grandma, don't prepare too much, I can't carry it."
"......"
My eldest and second sisters now work in the company and have their own circles. After a little inquiry, they found out that Inner Mongolia is even colder than the three northeastern provinces. You have to cover yourself with a quilt when sleeping in the summer, and you can easily catch a cold if you are not careful.
When the second sister heard this, she got some medicinal herbs from the town below and asked an old doctor she knew to prescribe medicine for her. When Lin Qing took it, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry, because she could make these things herself.
But after all, it was my sister's intention, and this is the greatest help I can do.
The second sister's job is now stable, but it is not easy to get a permanent job. The medicinal materials company is different from the factory. Lin Qing joked to her second sister,
"Sister, when I develop well over there, I will get you a formal job, and you can stay with me from now on."
The second sister doesn't care much about this. She is already doing very well now. The money she earns is enough for her mother and her two daughters to eat and drink, and she still has some money left over. Compared to when she was in Hejia Village, it is a world of difference.
"Just do your job well and don't always think about me. Your parents have me and your elder sister. Don't put all the burdens on your shoulders."
Lin Qing knew that her second sister was afraid that her future would be damaged because of mistakes made by her family members, so she smiled and said nothing more. This thing also depends on opportunity, and you must seize it when you encounter it.
She would not be foolish enough to abuse her power for personal gain.
"Don't worry, I have a plan in mind."
The second sister felt relieved after hearing what Lin Qing said.
The eldest sister made mattresses, dry food, and some easy-to-store dry goods. Lin Qing picked and chose and eliminated a lot of them.
In the past, she also lived in the staff dormitory of the unit. It would take a while to get the family housing at Cheng Luo's place, and it would be inappropriate for her to bring a lot of things to the unit.
It seems like life in the past.
"Sister, there must be a cafeteria in the unit. I will eat and live in the unit. I can just bring my bed and bedding."
"Then take these dry food and dry goods with you. You can eat the dry food in the car, and distribute the dry goods to your colleagues in the office to build relationships." said the eldest sister.
The eldest sister is not so easy to fool.
Although Lin Qing said that she couldn't bring much stuff, Grandma Cheng obviously had her own understanding.
You can bring things for free, not too much, but not too little, right?
More is more?
Can’t lift it? But he is very strong.
So when Lin Qing saw the large and small bags of things that filled almost half of the room, she was shocked.
"Grandma, please spend your money slowly."
Lin Qing took a quick look and saw several bags of milk powder, malted milk, and canned food.
Although this thing takes up space, you don't need to buy several bags of it, right?
Lin Qing also felt that the can was very heavy after picking up one.
Grandma Cheng didn't think she had prepared too much. "Your uncle and aunt also prepared this for you."
"I accept your kindness. I'll just pick some to take away." Seeing that Grandma Cheng was getting anxious, Lin Qing quickly added, "Grandma, keep these things. When Cheng Luo returns to the team, ask him to bring them all over. I live in the company dormitory, and it's inevitable that I'll feel a bit ostentatious if I bring so many things with me."
Second Aunt clapped her hands after hearing this: "You only think about how hard it was for you in the past and forget about this. You can't bring too much to work. It will have a bad impact."
When Grandma Cheng thought about it, it seemed to be true. Although she was not happy about it, she didn't say anything more.
Try to bring some important things for Lin Qing.
Before Lin Qing boarded the train, Mrs. Xu gave her a small bag of tea eggs and said reluctantly, "I can talk to you on weekdays. Now that you're gone, I feel so empty."
Lin Qing teased, "What should we do then? How about sister-in-law not have Big Fatty and Little Fatty go with me?"
Mrs. Xu glanced at Lin Qing unhappily.
Lin Qing hugged Sister Xu and said, "Sister-in-law, please help my elder sister and second sister. You are the biggest gain of my coming here."
Mrs. Xu was amused. She patted Lin Qing on the back and said, "Just try to trick me with nice words."
"There is some sincerity in it." Lin Qing said with a giggle.
Before leaving, Grandma Yue also gave Lin Qing a portion of pastry and said with a straight face, "Take it and eat it on the way."
.
Aunt Ye came over early in the morning and said she wanted to accompany Lin Qing to the train station. She also brought a lot of pastries for the journey.
Old Cheng has a mission and is not around these days. Fortunately, before marrying Cheng Luo, Lin Qing had already anticipated that he might not be around at many critical moments.
If you are prepared, you won't be disappointed.
Old Cheng definitely has his own advantages.
It is easy to get on the train with bags of all sizes because someone will hand them to you through the window, but it is not necessarily the case when getting off the train.
Although there is space, the people in the car are not blind.
When the train started to move slowly, Lin Qing threw the bags out of the window.
The eldest and second sisters, their eyes red: "......"
How could he be sad at all? He was busy picking up things from the ground. Even Aunt Ye was not idle.
The eldest sister said something in Northeastern dialect: "You dead kid."
Lin Qing poked her head out and smiled, waving goodbye to her older sister who looked unhappy, "Sister, there are too many things to take away. Leave the food for the children. Don't let grandma know."
There should be a bit of art in throwing things.
She took away all the food given by Grandma Yue, Sister Xu and Aunt Ye.
Damn it, Grandma Cheng, just bring two cans [awkward laughter].
The train was moving slowly. Lin Qing sat on the train, eating, drinking, and looking at the scenery, from farmland to endless grasslands, and also wheat fields that were like waves in the wind.
In the 1960s and 1970s, spring wheat was the main crop grown here.
Because it is too cold, sowing can only be done after spring, so the crops here are only for one season. If people from the south come here to farm and don't understand the local climate, they will lose all their crops in the first two years.
Occasionally you can see rapeseed flowers. The rapeseed fields with buds just about to bloom are green with scattered yellow, which is also very beautiful.
The further we walked, the more desolate it became.
After seeing the scenery all the way on the train, Lin Qing roughly knew that Inner Mongolia was vast and sparsely populated. Sometimes it took a long time to see a village, and the distance between stations was obviously longer than that in the three northeastern provinces.
When she ran all the way to the banner, she looked at the courtyard and let out a long sigh.
How to say it......
From the beginning, I didn't expect this place to be so grand and prosperous.
But I didn't expect it to be so sloppy.
It was so sloppy that it looked like a makeshift team.
"......"
