Thinking of this, she became happy again, "Aren't you going home this winter? When school starts next year, you will definitely go back home to get some things!"
"No, there's still some things to do in the brigade. I have to deal with them before I can leave. Now I don't know who will do my job in the future. I have to wait here until this matter is settled. I will leave in the spring next year. Besides, my family lives in Shengjing. If there is anything I need, I can just go home and get it. It doesn't take much effort." Gu Zhao said.
He is now helping Tian Lisong with accounting work in the brigade, and he has a lot of account books under his command. During this period, they have to slaughter the New Year pig and divide the money. They don't have time to choose another person to help Tian Lisong. They can only wait until the New Year. During this period, Gu Zhao still has to help keep the accounts.
"Then let's go together when school starts! And we'll be alumni of the same school in the future!" Tian Tian said happily.
Seeing Tian Tian so happy, Gu Zhao also smiled, "Okay!"
Gu Zhao and Tian Tian did not brag about receiving the admission letters, but Tian Tian did tell Tian Yun, "You don't have to worry. Gu Zhao's grandfather said that he will help you keep an eye on it. Once it is confirmed, he will help us send the admission letter, but it will be a few days later than others."
When Tian Yun heard that Tian Tian received the admission letter, although he was a little anxious, he was also really happy for Tian Tian. "I'm not in a hurry. As long as it's my place and no one else has taken it, it doesn't matter if I don't pass the exam."
"There are so many people in our team who are taking the exam, but they haven't received their acceptance letters yet. What does my situation mean?"
Seeing that Tian Yun really didn't take the matter to heart, Tian Tian felt relieved. She played poker with Tian Yun for a while and then hurried home.
Tian Tian received the admission letter. Although it was a good thing, the atmosphere at home did not change much. Except for Old Mrs. Tian, it was no different from before. Chen Guihua and Lin Meiyu were both a little worried, and the atmosphere was even more wrong than before receiving the admission letter.
Even when distributing pork, Old Mrs. Tian specifically asked the team for a large piece of pork, but it still failed to make Lin Meiyu and Chen Guihua happy.
As the head of the Tian family, Mrs. Tian was naturally very sensitive to the wrong atmosphere. She sighed, "After dinner, everyone should pack up and don't go back to the house. I have something to tell you. Tian Mu and Tian Zhuo are not young anymore. They know what's going on and what should and shouldn't be said. Come over and listen."
After everyone finished their meal, washed the dishes and cleaned the house, they all gathered in Old Mrs. Tian's room. Old Mrs. Tian even turned on the lights, which was very rare.
"Mom! What do you want to talk to us about?" Tian Lisong asked first.
Old Mrs. Tian lifted up the bluestone slab under the cabinet, took out a few biscuit boxes, and poured all the contents onto the kang.
"This!" Chen Guihua looked at the things on the kang in surprise and almost screamed out, but was glared at fiercely by Old Mrs. Tian, so she swallowed her words back.
"Mom! Where did you get so much money?" Tian Lisong also stood up immediately to see if the doors and windows were closed. Fortunately, it was winter and the windows were covered with oil paper, so no light could get through. Tian Lisong then sat back with peace of mind and spoke to Old Mrs. Tian in a low voice.
I saw stacks of money on the kang. Each stack contained brand new banknotes, each of which was a note of great unity.
Such a large amount of money, no one in their family had ever seen it except Tian Lisong? Now they were reluctant to blink, staring at the money eagerly.
"There are a total of two thousand yuan. One thousand five hundred of them came from the ginseng that Tian Tian dug in the mountains before. I took it to the county town and sold it for one thousand five hundred yuan. The other five hundred yuan came from the subsidies that were paid to me after your father died, as well as the salary that Tian Yuan sent back when he was working a few years ago. I saved a total of five hundred yuan, plus the money from selling ginseng, a total of two thousand yuan." Old Mrs. Tian counted the sources of the money.
In today's world where fifty dollars is a huge sum of money, this amount of money is something that no one can even imagine. They may not be able to earn this much money in three lifetimes.
Tian Tian didn't expect that Old Lady Tian would have so much money. She knew the ginseng she had dug out with her own hands.
However, after the ginseng was handed over to Old Lady Tian, she did not care about its whereabouts. She thought that Old Lady Tian would keep it and use it when something happened. After all, such a large and good ginseng would be hard to buy even if she had money.
Over the years, their family lived in peace and tranquility, but it was useless. As for the place where the ginseng was found, Tian Tian gradually forgot about the ginseng.
"Is this ginseng so valuable? Let's go up the mountain to look for it tomorrow. Maybe we can find other ginseng. If we sell it, we won't have to work anymore, right? The money is enough for us to live on for a lifetime." Chen Guihua suggested with shining eyes, as if she had found a way to make money quickly.
Old Lady Tian wanted to hear what Chen Guihua had to say, but when she heard Chen Guihua say this, she was speechless, "Do you think ginseng is so easy to dig? You can dig it whenever you want? Last time, Tian Tian was lucky to get a ginseng, and it was of very good quality, so she could sell it for so much money."
Chen Guihua was not angry after hearing this. "What's the big deal? It's all money, no matter how much you earn. I don't have to go out of my way to look for it. I can just go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables and chestnuts and take a look. If I can see it, it's my money. Isn't it much better than working in the fields?"
"Everyone says they want to make money, but what's the point of having so much money? I don't have tickets and I can't spend it. How do you think I saved all this money over the years? It's because I can't spend it." Old Mrs. Tian said.
It is true now. You need a ticket to buy anything. Without a ticket, you are not allowed to buy anything even if you have money.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone in the family was worried about Tian Tian's tuition and no one talked much all day long, Mrs. Tian would never have taken out all the money.
Old Mrs. Tian also feels that she is getting older and older. Although she is still in good health, no one can predict what will happen in the future, and life and death are not up to her.
