Chapter 21 Can't Let Go
On the way back to the countryside, Lin Qing got on a ox cart.
With her physical strength, she wouldn't feel tired walking back without a bullock cart.
But the old man driving the ox cart was too enthusiastic.
The old man knows Lin Dahua.
Lin Qing was able to rely on the help of her father.
A little fight with dad?
We chatted casually along the way and arrived at Shanglin Village in a blink of an eye.
After getting off the car, Lin Qing handed the old man a small oil-paper bag.
It contains a homemade ointment specially designed for mosquito bites. Just apply a little bit and the itchiness will be reduced.
The old man had just got a new grandson, so he accepted it with a smile and said, "I'll give you a break next time we meet."
"Okay." Lin Qing didn't act pretentiously.
On the way back to the village, Lin Qing looked normal and greeted everyone she knew on the road.
When someone asked her where she was going, she just said openly that she was going to the county.
No one stopped to ask what they were doing in the county.
After the apology incident, the villagers felt a little sympathy for Lin Qing.
Her generous and open appearance attracted a lot of goodwill.
Now, the villagers have a very bad impression of the Zhao family.
Insidious and rogue.
Once this impression is formed, it is difficult to erase it.
Wang Lanfeng did not go to work in the afternoon and stayed at home alone waiting for Lin Qing to come back.
As soon as people enter the house, they throw away the soles of shoes in their hands. They really want to know the result, but they feel that they cannot show it too obviously.
What if my daughter fails the exam and her anxiety affects my mood?
So, I tried to calm down and asked, "How is it? Did you pass the exam?"
Lin Qing shook her head deeply.
Seeing Lin Qing's disappointed look, Wang Lanfeng felt so distressed, "If you didn't pass the exam, then you didn't pass it. At least you're alive. Times are better now. It's not as chaotic as before. You won't starve to death anymore."
There was a gleam of evil in Lin Qing's eyes, and Wang Lanfeng had no idea what to do.
She said coquettishly, "Mom, I have studied all these years, but I don't know how to do farm work. Besides, I can't get used to farm work. Will I starve to death in the future?"
"Nonsense." Wang Lanfeng wanted to spit.
"With mother here, how could you starve to death?"
Lin Qing originally wanted to tease her mother, but unexpectedly, she ended up teasing herself.
My heart aches and I want to cry.
She hugged Wang Lanfeng softly and said, "Mom, just starving to death is not enough."
"Actually, your daughter is quite greedy. She wants to live a good life, the kind of good life where she can eat meat and drink soup every day."
"mother......"
Wang Lanfeng’s face was so wrinkled that it could pinch a fly to death.
"......"
Lin Qing knew that she couldn't tease her anymore. If she did, Baozi's mother might turn into a hot pepper.
"Mom, look what this is."
An envelope was swaying in front of her eyes. Wang Lanfeng was stunned at first, then filled with ecstasy.
He was so angry and happy that he didn't know what to say. The usually good-tempered man punched Lin Qing twice and said, "You enemy."
She wanted to reach out to take the envelope, but then pulled her hand back and wiped it on her body twice before accepting it. "You actually got in. Which school?"
Wang Lanfeng couldn't read, and after staring at the envelope she could only recognize the two words "Lin Qing".
The envelope was marked with the Education Commission Office of xx College, and Lin Qing was admitted to Shen City Vocational College of Finance and Economics.
This college was newly established this year. When filling out the application form, the first form was for key colleges, and the second form was for schools that I was more confident of getting into.
Under system analysis, this institution should be easier.
Even though it was only a junior college, it was still a remarkable college student in that era, and he would start out as a clerk after graduation.
People in the countryside don’t care about undergraduate or junior college degrees. They only know that those who pass the college entrance examination are college students.
In the future, people will eat commercial grain.
This is what brings honor to the family.
Lin Qing also felt that it was something to be proud of, as she only had ten days to review.
Isn’t it amazing, (`へ′*)ノ.
...
The eldest sister was always thinking about her younger sister's exam while she was working in the fields, and she would run back to her parents' home after work.
Mrs. Deng's face looked unhappy, but the eldest sister pretended not to see it.
Mrs. Deng was so angry that she almost glared at her son. She complained to him, "Look at your wife. She said she married into our family, but her heart is not here at all."
The eldest brother-in-law's face was stern. "Why is my wife's heart not with me? She felt bad when I caught a cold, and she felt bad when I didn't have enough to eat. She even gave birth to two children for me. How can you say her heart is not with me?"
"Mom, don't you feel guilty when you hold Yangyang and Tiantian in your arms?"
Old Lady Deng: ...Look at you, you look so stupid, it’s as if you’ve never had a wife in your entire life.
Brother-in-law: Mom, why don’t you tell me that you haven’t had any trouble with your wife in your lifetime.
Mrs. Deng: I can’t tell you anything.
As soon as the eldest sister entered the room, she only took a look at the mother and knew that something good was going to happen.
Her mother's face was full of joy.
"Passed the exam?"
Lin Qing nodded.
The eldest sister was so excited that she wanted to scream, but after the excitement passed, she felt a little sad and her eyes gradually turned red.
Finally, something good happened in their family.
The envelope remained unopened.
They all want to wait for Lin Dahua to come back and dismantle it together.
After all, he is the head of the family.
You have to take people seriously.
When Lin Dahua returned home, he found that his wife and eldest daughter were looking at him with unpleasant eyes.
A little confused.
What's wrong?
Lin Erli is making trouble again?
Could you please not look at him like that?
A little scared.
"Why are you so late in coming back? I've been waiting for you." Wang Lanfeng said unhappily.
Lin Dahua touched his nose. What were you waiting for?
What big thing is waiting for him?
Lin Qing curved her beautiful eyebrows and smiled at her father.
In an instant, Lin Dahua was inspired and asked, "Did you pass the exam?"
Lin Qing smiled even more brightly.
Lin Dahua also smiled as brightly as she did.
The family of four gathered together, staring at the envelope on the table with burning eyes.
Wang Lanfeng and Lin Dahua were delighted and looked radiant. The frustration they had suffered during this period was no longer a big deal.
Lin Qing cleared her throat and sat up straight, "Now that everyone is here, shall I start dismantling it?"
"......"
The other three didn't say anything, just looked at Lin Qing.
Lin Qing laughed.
Awkward.
She was careless and opened the envelope and poured the contents roughly onto the table.
Wang Lanfeng's heart ached, fearing that the notice would be broken. "Please shake it gently."
The first thing that fell out of the envelope was a train ticket.
Lin Qing and her elder sister were shocked.
This ticket can save a lot of money.
Lin Dahua and Wang Lanfeng were also very happy when they saw the train tickets. For the family, the biggest difficulty was over.
In addition to a notice, there was also a list of requirements in the envelope.
The reporting date is the 27th. Students need to go to a regular hospital for an X-ray of the heart, lungs and chest, and also complete the household registration and grain and oil relationship transfer procedures.
In addition, the family economic survey form needs to be stamped by the village committee.
To transfer the grain household registration, one needs to sell the grain quota in the village for that year to the grain station.
Lin Dahua had learned medicine from his grandfather for two years and was literate. After reading the letter, he said, "Tomorrow we go to sell grain, and we can sell the dried medicine as well."
Time is running out and Lin Qing must finish the work within these two days.
Wang Lanfeng had already started planning in her mind what to bring for Lin Qing to school.
The couple's thoughts were in a mess, racking their brains to think of what to do before their child went to school.
The eldest sister was much calmer. She looked at the notice and then at the ticket.
After pondering for a while, he asked, "Third sister, is your school the same place as the college where Zhao Huizhou is studying?"
The joyful atmosphere suddenly faded.
It's very unlucky.
Only then did Wang Lanfeng and Lin Dahua realize that their daughter seemed to have applied for a place that was quite far away.
The couple looked at Lin Qing at the same time.
Worried.
San Ya, you still can't let go of Zhao Huizhou, right?
