Song Yun smiled and said, "No, don't worry."
The heavy stone in Jiang Yulan's chest finally fell to the ground when she heard this. She thanked Song Yun again and took out the gifts she bought in the county town and gave them to Song Yun: a seven-foot piece of floral cotton cloth and a pound of egg cake.
Such a gift is very impressive even in Beijing, which shows that Jiang Yulan's family is well-off, which can be seen from the clothes of the two girls.
Song Yunxin accepted it and chatted with the two girls for a while until someone came over to prescribe hawthorn pills, and then they said goodbye and left.
At ten o'clock the next morning, Song Yun received a call from Zhang Hongmei. As soon as she answered, it was Yang Lifen's voice on the other end of the line. Yang Lifen suppressed her tears and said, "Xiao Yun, I want to go to your place. I want to go to your place."
Song Yun said quickly, "Okay, then come to my place. I have a house here, so you don't have to worry about food and shelter. If you want to come, you should take care of your health. You won't be able to endure just sitting on the train for two days. Do you understand?"
Yang Lifen nodded, "Yes, I understand. Thank you, Xiaoyun."
"There's no need to talk about this between us. Give the phone to Aunt Zhang and I'll talk to her."
Yang Lifen could only reluctantly hand the phone to Zhang Hongmei, "Mom, Xiaoyun wants to tell you."
Song Yun briefly described the situation in Qinghe Village. "That's pretty much it. If you decide to send Lifen here, you don't need to prepare too much. It's hard to carry it on the road. I have everything here. Just bring some food and some clothes and shoes for a change of clothes."
Zhang Hongmei agreed, feeling very grateful, "Okay, I got it. I'll ask for leave to take her there when the time comes." She was worried about her daughter going to such a far place to join the team by herself, but there were no other educated youths wanting to go there at the moment, and it was unknown when the next batch would arrive. Lifen looked like she wanted to fly there immediately, so she had to take her there when the time came.
Zhang Hongmei promised not to prepare much, but as a mother, how could she not prepare anything? No matter how hard it was to get, she had to prepare as much as possible. Especially since many things were available in Beijing, but not necessarily in the county.
In addition to preparing gifts for her daughter, she also had to prepare some gifts for Song Yun and her brother. How could she just go there empty-handed? That would be embarrassing.
Zhang Hongmei is the director of the street office. It was a very simple matter for her to arrange for her daughter to go to Qinghe Village, and the formalities were completed quickly.
Song Yun heard from Yang Lifen again on August 30th. She had just completed the enrollment procedures for Ziyi, who was a transfer student in Class 2, Grade 3.
After completing the formalities at school, Yang Lifen just returned to the village and received a telegram from the postman, which stated the time when she arrived in Lian County.
To come to Lian County from Beijing, you have to take a train to the city first, and then take a bus to Lian County. There is only one bus a day from the county to the town, which requires a bit of luck. If you miss it, you can either wait until tomorrow or walk. If you are lucky, you can meet a donkey cart or ox cart going the same way back to the town.
Song Yun looked at the time on the telegram and calculated that Lifen and the others would most likely not have the chance to take the only bus from the county to the town, so she found Captain Liu early and reserved the use of the ox cart for September 3rd. Because they were going to the county, a distance of more than 30 miles, it would take a whole day to go back and forth. Song Yun gave two dollars to rent the ox cart, and gave Uncle Zhang a pack of Daqianmen and a lunch for him. Uncle Zhang was very happy and wished he could do this job every day.
What Song Yun didn't expect was that the person who sent Yang Lifen here was not only Zhang Hongmei, but also Yang Lifen's elder brother, Yang Bing, who was a soldier in the army.
