The three of them closed the wooden door and ate in the main hall. Yun Huaying had a good nap and her spirits and complexion had improved a lot. Her voice was not as hoarse as before. "I bought a picture magazine in Xinjin City. Both of our works have been published. Have the royalties for the second set been remitted?"
Speaking of this, Lin Shan and Jiang Yuan were extremely happy and said almost in unison: "It has been transferred, 820 yuan."
"Why are there more this time?" Yun Huaying raised her eyebrows.
"The manuscript fee is still 660 yuan, and the other 160 yuan is a reward. In addition to the manuscript fee, each of the three of us was awarded a pen, a notebook, and a certificate." Jiang Yuan smiled.
Yun Huaying smiled when she heard this, "Have you gone to get the money?"
"Not yet. The remittance slip is in your name. We are still waiting for you to come back and collect it together."
"We'll take some time out in the next two days to get it out."
Yun Huaying sipped her porridge and asked, "Did anything special happen in the production team while I was away?"
"The rice mill and oil press are doing pretty well. A few days ago, leaders from the commune came to inspect and praised the village cadres. Then the notice about the school being located in Dongjiang Brigade was posted, and the commune has organized people to start work. Many members of the brigade have gone to work there, including Mrs. Wang, Dazhuang's mother, Mrs. Li Ying from the Tian family, and Aunt Sun from the Sun family. They've all been recruited to work in the cafeteria."
"The team leader has been preparing for the tofu shop these days. The commune has provided financial and machine support. They have funded a set of soybean grinding machines for the Dongjiang Brigade and the two brigades on the other side of the river. They have also approved 500 yuan for the construction of the tofu shop. The tofu shop will start operating after the autumn harvest." Jiang Yuan only mentioned these two things.
After she finished, Lin Shan added one more thing: "There are two new educated youth coming to our production team, and one who transferred from another production team, and we know him."
"Who is it?" Yun Huaying looked up at her.
"Zhang Lin, she's the one who came with us and whose fragrance made Brother Zheng carsick." Lin Shan's expression was a little hard to describe when she mentioned this person.
Yun Huaying had some impression of Zhang Lin and raised her eyebrows slightly. "Didn't she go to the Nanwan Brigade? How did she transfer to our production team?"
"He has become the most influential person in the Red Star Commune. There was no production team to accept him, so he was forced to come here by the comrades from the Youth League Office. In order to allow the production team to settle this top-notch person, the Youth League Office specially approved a second-hand rice mill for the Dongjiang Brigade as compensation." Lin Shan curled her lips.
Yun Huaying didn't have a good impression of Zhang Lin at the time, but they didn't have any direct conflicts and chose different production teams, so she didn't pay any attention to this person's affairs.
Now that she was at the Dongjiang Brigade, I'd be seeing her frequently in the future, so it was best to understand her past. So I asked, "What happened to her over there?"
"Zhang Lin and I are from the same county. We graduated from the same junior high school, and our families live not far from each other. I know everything about her family. She didn't come to our production team before, so I didn't gossip about her to you."
Jiang Yuan then took over, a rare look of disdain on her face: "Zhang Lin's family is a typical example of a family with crooked top and crooked bottom. Her mother is a notorious playboy in the area, and her father is not a good person either."
"Her father originally came from a poor peasant family in the countryside. He met his first wife while serving in the army. He relied on his first wife's family's status and power to become an officer in the army. But he didn't know how to be grateful. He secretly had an affair with Zhang Lin's mother and fathered an illegitimate daughter."
"Her father was having affairs outside. When his ex-wife found out, her parents forced them to divorce, and he lost the job he had relied on. His ex-in-laws, for the sake of their child, saved his face and didn't make the matter public. They simply forced him to quit his job and return to his hometown to work at the train station."
"Zhang Lin's mother married him shortly after and gave birth to three daughters. Thanks to his connections, she got a respectable job at the county train station radio station. However, his parents favored sons over daughters and were unhappy that she had only given birth to three daughters. They also blamed her for ruining their son's future and often quarreled and fought with her at home."
"Later, this woman cheated again and got together with another married man at the train station. She even had sex with him in front of her parents-in-law. It was shameless and disgusting beyond words."
"Zhang Lin is the youngest of three sisters. They all look like their mother and have pretty faces. But influenced by their mother for so long, the three sisters haven't learned well. Even after getting married, the two older sisters have been having affairs outside, relying on their looks to hook up with other men. Their reputations in our neighborhood are as bad as it can be."
"Zhang Lin wasn't much better than them. She wrote those kinds of letters to her male classmates in junior high school. She stopped studying after junior high school and didn't go to work. She spent every day hanging out with street thugs, relying on her looks to get free food and drinks."
"She was unemployed and had been forced to go to the countryside because she was of the right age. She chose the Nanwan Brigade because she thought it had better economic conditions and wanted to use her good looks to trick men into paying her to work for her."
"She's been doing the same thing for the past two months. There are many young men in Nanwan Brigade, and many of them are well-off male educated youth. She hangs around men every day, relying solely on their help with work and money to support her."
"She thought she was smart, and the others weren't stupid either. The men she was playing with soon figured it out, and things started to get out of hand."
"She's only been there for a little over two months, and she's already scammed out 700 to 800 yuan. Now, more than ten men are asking her to pay them back. The most disgusting thing is, she's already had sex with three of them..."
