Lin Qingyan turned around and pressed her hand on his body. Lu Zhengting instinctively squeezed his legs together.
"Honey, you said I'd be fully recovered in half a month, but I feel like it could be even sooner."
"Then we'll see how accurate your gut feeling is."
"Wife, I need you to keep up the good work and give me more excitement."
At the same time, Lin Sisi and Gu's mother also heard about Lin Qingyan delivering Zhang Lixia's baby.
"She's really going to make a name for herself in the family compound."
With a sullen face and gritted teeth, Gu's mother felt increasingly uncomfortable as Lin Qingyan did better.
Lin Sisi said, "Mom, she's just too eager to show off. Today she's delivering this baby, tomorrow she might be delivering that baby. If something goes wrong while she's delivering a baby, they'll definitely not let her off the hook."
Mrs. Gu nodded. "That's right. If you walk by the river often, you're bound to get your shoes wet. If she really causes trouble in this residential compound one day, it'll be fine if no one dies, but if someone does, no one can save her."
"She brought it on herself, she can't blame anyone else."
Two days later, Gu's mother had had enough of staying here and wanted to return to Beijing. To show her filial piety, Lin Sisi and Gu Mingzhou took her to the train station.
After Gu's mother left, Gu Mingzhou did not send Lin Sisi to another room. She continued to use contraception, which made Lin Sisi furious.
However, Lin Sisi quickly came up with her own solution. While Gu Mingzhou was not at home, she secretly used a needle to poke small holes in the condoms, so that even if Gu Mingzhou wore them at night, they would not be effective.
Lin Qingyan has not returned to medical work for the time being. She is too bored and plans to earn money by submitting articles to the newspaper, just like when she first arrived at Mopantun Brigade.
She finished writing it in just over a day. Sister Zhang came to visit her every day, and Yang Qiuyue also came often, but she didn't come as frequently as Sister Zhang.
They both learned about Lin Qingyan's writing at almost the same time and were shocked once again.
Lin Qingyan is so versatile, she can do everything.
Zhang's family is from the city. She went to junior high school. "I had heard people say that you could make money by writing articles and submitting them to newspapers. I wanted to try it, but I realized how difficult it was when I actually started writing. I just couldn't do it. Sigh, I'm not destined to make that kind of money."
Lin Qingyan said, "Sometimes writing doesn't necessarily rely on talent or academic qualifications. By reading more, practicing more, thinking more, and experiencing more, you can still write good articles over a long period of time."
This made Sister Zhang's idea of earning money by writing articles resurface.
"Qingyan, I'm already thirty years old this year. Do you think it's too late for me to start learning to write?"
"What's too late? Writing knows no age. In fact, your age and experience may even help you write better."
Upon hearing this, Sister Zhang immediately began to rub her hands together in anticipation.
"Okay, Qingyan, when you go to mail your manuscript, I'll go to the city with you. I need to buy some pens and paper so I can practice when I get back. You can give me some pointers and see how my writing is. If I can submit my work and earn money, I'll treat you to a meal."
"Okay, sister-in-law. By the way, sister-in-law, before you start writing, the most important thing is to read a lot of articles and learn how others write. The more you read, the more you will gradually learn."
"Okay, so do we still need to read the newspaper?"
"Reading books and newspapers is fine, there's no need to buy new ones. We can go to the city tomorrow and look for old newspapers and books at the recycling station."
"good."
Yang Qiuyue's hometown is in the countryside, and her family is poor. She has never been to school. When she listened to Zhang's wife and Lin Qingyan discussing writing, she felt like an alien and couldn't understand anything.
However, she knew that this meant cultural knowledge could make money.
She suddenly remembered that all three of her daughters stayed at home and none of them went to school.
“Oh dear, my daughter is already eight years old and hasn’t started school yet. I heard from you that you can make money by writing, so I’ll send my daughter to school too. Once she’s educated, she can make money by writing just like you.”
"Sister-in-law, cultural knowledge has many uses; making money by writing articles is only one part of it."
“Yes, yes, yes.” Yang Qiuyue nodded. “I can’t read. I can’t even read the letters sent from my hometown. My husband can’t read either, so we always have to ask someone else to read the letters to us. When we write back to our hometown, we also have to ask someone else to write them for us. If we could read ourselves, we wouldn’t have to bother other people.”
Sister Zhang said, "When I was in school, there were many children in my family, and I was the eldest. Otherwise, I would have liked to finish high school."
Lin Qingyan finished writing the first draft that night and planned to mail it to the city post office the next day.
She planned to call Zhang's wife and Yang Qiuyue. Zhang's wife had agreed to go with her, and they would go together to call Yang Qiuyue, but Yang Qiuyue didn't want to go.
"I have nothing to do there, you guys go ahead."
“Okay, sister-in-law, do you need us to bring you anything?” Lin Qingyan asked her.
"No need, no need, we have everything at home, no need to bring anything."
Lin Qingyan and Sister Zhang left the family compound together and went to wait for the bus at the bus stop outside.
Before they even reached the bus stop, Lin Qingyan suddenly noticed a familiar face walking towards them—it was Xu Xinning.
Lin Qingyan was surprised to see Xu Xinning here. She was glad to see Xu Xinning again, and she was sure she would also be able to see Grandma Lin again.
She wanted to know how Grandma Lin was doing, so she walked over to Xu Xinning.
