"Xiao Yuan!" Tian Lisong suddenly said, "You have always been worried since you were little. You suffered more than Tiantian and the others when you were little, so you are always daydreaming and are used to taking all the family affairs on yourself. You are going to college this time, which is a great thing for our Tian family. You just need to go to college steadily and don't worry about other things. As for the money, don't keep calculating it in your mind."
"When you finish college, your salary will definitely be higher than what you earn now, and then you can just pay it back to your parents." Tian Lisong's tone was very earnest.
After listening to this, Tian Yuan felt a little relieved. After he graduated from university, his position in the army would be higher than now, and his future would be limitless.
The three people in the room stopped talking, and the room fell into silence.
When she heard snoring beside her, Lin Meiyu knew that Tian Lisong and Tian Yuan had already fallen asleep.
She turned around silently and began to calculate how much money was left in the family today and whether it was enough to support the children to finish their studies.
For example, Tian Tian will be able to graduate next year and just needs to study in high school for another year.
Tian Yuan still has to go to college for four years, and the bulk of the money still accrues to him.
As for Tian Zhuo, although he is only in elementary school now, he spends less money than Tian Yuan and others, only two dollars a semester.
After thinking about it, this money should be enough to support all these children.
Lin Meiyu thought about it and sighed. Tian Yuan had saved the money over the past few years. She had originally planned to save it for Tian Yuan's marriage. She also thought that she would find a way to buy Tian Yuan a three-wheeler and a ring, and give the remaining money to the young couple so that they could live on it.
Or they could give the money to Tian Yuan to build a small house for the couple to live in, so that Tian Yuan doesn't have to live with their elders after he gets married.
But she didn't expect that going to college would cost so much money, so this idea might have to go down the drain.
Lin Meiyu felt very upset as the money she had saved over the years was not enough.
But if you think about it in a positive way, at least all the children have been provided for, so they can learn to read and write.
Lin Meiyu was worried and tossed and turned until very late before she fell asleep. She felt tired the next morning and didn't want to be noticed by Old Lady Tian. She pretended to be fine and helped Old Lady Tian cook and feed the chickens, then called everyone to eat normally.
No one noticed anything wrong with Lin Meiyu, and everything was the same as usual.
Tian Tian didn't notice anything different about Lin Meiyu. After dinner, Tian Tian took a glass bottle and went to find Tian Yun to catch fish.
She and Tian Yun rolled a few small corn dough balls with corn dough and put them into a glass bottle. They then covered the mouth of the glass bottle with a layer of plastic cloth and cut a small hole in the middle to allow the fish to get in.
After the two of them were done, they went to the river together to put the glass bottles.
"Lingling has been gone for more than a week now. I don't know how she is doing in Beijing now." Tian Tian said with some concern.
"She must be fine." Tian Yun didn't want Tian Tian to worry so much. "Didn't you say Fang Siwen is a nice person? And we are going to Fang Siwen's home, what is there to worry about? And she is going to Beijing, I envy her, I will never have the chance to go to Beijing in my life."
Tian Yun felt that this was Shen Lingling's own choice to go, and she must have considered all aspects. Moreover, when you go on a long journey, it is bound to not be smooth sailing, and big and small things will happen, which you have to think about before going out.
Shen Lingling didn't go out alone, and Fang Siwen was with her, so they didn't need to worry too much.
But before Shen Lingling left, she borrowed money from Tian Tian. Tian Tian knew that Shen Lingling had no money, only the five yuan she gave her. She couldn't rest assured that Shen Lingling would go on a long journey without any money. What if Shen Lingling didn't even have money to go home?
"That's not what I mean. Weren't you nervous when you met their parents when you got married?" When they reached the river, Tian Tian took off her shoes and put them aside, then walked into the water barefoot. The river water was still a little cold in the morning.
"It's nervous." Tian Yun and Tian Tian held hands and waded in the river.
She thought that if she were to meet the other person's parents, she would definitely be very nervous.
"It's normal to be nervous. We are just living in our county town, and our parents will be with us. What about Shen Lingling? She is so far away from Beijing and she doesn't know anyone there. How can she not be nervous?" Tian Tian said.
Tian Yun thought about it carefully and said, "What you said makes sense, but you shouldn't worry about her all the time. Shen Lingling is one year older than you, and maybe she's having a great time in Beijing."
The two people found a place where the water was flowing fast and there was a small up and down drop. They moved a few stones to block the water to make it flow faster, and then stuck the glass bottle there, preparing to come back to take a look tomorrow morning.
"Yeah, then I won't think about him anymore." Tian Tian said.
"Do you want to come to my house this afternoon?" Tian Yun asked.
"I have to do my homework in the afternoon, what's wrong?" Tian Tian asked.
They actually didn't have homework during the winter and summer vacations at that time, and the study tasks were not as heavy as in later generations, but Tian Tian was a little strong-willed and wanted to get better grades. Since there was nothing to do in the summer anyway, she simply assigned herself some homework and did a little bit every day to kill time.
"Then bring your homework to my house and do it. I'll be making clothes next to you and you can do your homework at the same time." Tian Yun said coquettishly.
"Make clothes? I don't know how to make clothes. Why do you want me to go there?" Tian Tian asked puzzledly.
She had never made clothes since she came here. At most, she helped Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo mend some damaged parts.
"I know you can't make clothes, but the clothes I made before, after I made the changes you pointed out, they all look good. Can you help me take a look at them this time when you go?" Tian Yun said, holding Tian Tian's hand.
In fact, Tian Tian doesn’t know how to make good-looking clothes. After all, she has lived in modern times for so long, and she has some basic vision and aesthetics.
Nowadays, most of the clothes made by rural people are handmade. Although they are very fit, there are only a few styles and they don’t have time to make new improvements. That’s why they think Tian Tian’s little trick is very novel.
