They are all drawn silk threads, and the bag is very big, weighing about five or six kilograms.
That would require raising a lot of silkworms, and just picking the mulberry leaves would take a lot of effort.
"They gave us everything, but what about themselves?"
"They had quilts, and they sold all the unused silk cocoons."
Even though their family was not well off, they still kept such expensive silkworms for her.
And those mountain products are all things that can be sold for money.
To make a bag that big, you need to dry a lot of mushrooms.
Lin Yuyao held the soft silk in her arms, feeling mixed emotions.
"Everything is fine at home."
"It's pretty good."
Lin Yuyao rolled her eyes at him and said, "Tell me when you've made up your mind."
Lin Ping then said, "Alas! Our family is indeed in financial difficulty. I asked around and found out that my sister-in-law was in a very dangerous situation when she gave birth. She almost died and was sent to a large hospital in the city for emergency treatment. Transferring her to another hospital and emergency treatment all cost money.
Don’t you know how much money your family has? All the money earned by my eldest brother and father from working was spent on the hospital. My sister-in-law suffered a lot during her pregnancy and could hardly do any work. Mom takes care of my eldest sister-in-law at home, and also raises chickens, ducks, geese, and silkworms, and goes into the mountains to pick mushrooms. They can’t make much money from selling agricultural products, so they just save it all for you…”
Lin Ping said a few things one after another, which made Lin Yuyao more determined to get her entire family out.
Staying in the countryside, I start working at dawn and finish at dusk. Working so hard and trying hard can only make enough to live.
Once you get a serious illness and go to the hospital, you will immediately fall back into poverty.
If you are working in the wrong direction, no matter how hard you try, it will be useless.
She has always opposed the saying that if you are poor, it is because you don't work hard.
Especially for our parents’ generation, it’s good that the policy has been relaxed now. In the past, if they wanted to move to the city, they had to get a letter of introduction, which was very difficult.
If you are born in a mountain valley, your fate is almost determined.
Only a few lucky people can rise up the social ladder through some special opportunities, and it really doesn't rely on hard work.
"Actually, I know everything without you telling me."
Lin Ping: "You know?"
"I'm just guessing, but considering the situation at home, my guess is pretty close."
Of course she knows.
The way my parents are working now is almost the same as in their previous life.
No, it was worse in the previous life.
Now that my eldest brother is gone, I have become a burden to the entire family. Not only do they have to take care of their own family, they also have to help her.
Lu Cong has cancer and can't do any work. It was okay when he could walk with crutches, but it became more tiring when he couldn't walk anymore.
He is a man of old-fashioned ideas. I heard that his father was a teacher in the Qing Dynasty, a most pedantic person.
How open-minded do you expect a person who was raised by pedantic people in the Qing Dynasty to be?
No matter how much Lin Yuyao did, he felt it was her duty. As a daughter-in-law, it was her duty to serve her parents-in-law after marrying into the family.
Of course, it is a favor for the in-laws to help and they should be thanked. He understands this.
So when Lu Jiangting returned home, he would urge him to buy gifts and go to his house to express his gratitude.
Giving away two bags of fruit candies for many years is a bit moral, but not much.
But Wang Cuilan is someone who knows how to pretend to be pitiful.
It was also her fault for being stupid. At that time, seeing her blind and stumbling around everywhere was really pitiful, and I felt sorry for her. Later, when I was older, I figured out what was going on. She just wanted to put the blame on herself.
But how could a woman like her do so much work?
My parents couldn't bear to see this, so they helped my husband's family plant a few acres of land.
Wang Cuilan could only hold their hands and cry, saying that she was a useless blind old lady.
It is said that the old man has this disease and is dying but not soon, causing Yuyao to suffer so much.
It is said that Lu Jiangting is being supported by the country, but there is no hope. He can't help at all with the housework. Without Yuyao, the family will fall apart.
She also said that Yuyao was better than her own children and said a lot of nice things to scare the young Lin Yuyao.
Of course, she would say some nice things and did not stop Lu Jiangting from subsidizing Fang Qing even though she knew it.
She joined in the cursing, cursing Fang Qing and blaming Wang Jianjun for wanting to be a dead ghost and bringing trouble to their entire family, but she just didn't blame Lu Jiangting for being confused.
Chatting with neighbors behind his back, people said that he was a man of integrity and loyalty, and that his superiors appreciated him.
Of course, it was not until later that Lin Yuyao realized that they had actually been deceived by Lu Jiangting.
Lu Jiangting said how powerful he is in the army now and how his salary increases every year because he helps Fang Qing and her son, and his leaders think he is a loyal and righteous man.
Others didn’t help, so their salaries didn’t increase. He said his salary was twice that of his colleagues who entered the company with him.
How would the old man and the old woman understand? They actually believed it.
While scolding Fang Qing, he also felt that it was a good thing to help her get a raise.
I recalled a lot of things unconsciously.
Only after making arrangements for Lin Ping did she go back to work.
Lin Ping won't go to school until tomorrow, so he can stay with them tonight.
After calculating the time, it will take three days by train. Ye Xiaotong's man will be here probably tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow.
Lin Yuyao told her about this and said, "It's not safe for you to live there alone. Come home with me tomorrow night and stay at my house."
"You two are staying here, it's not a good idea for me to go, forget it."
"He came here with Fang Qing. Fang Qing knows where you live. The train will arrive tomorrow night. He will probably come to look for you tomorrow night."
"It's okay, I'll close the door, I'm not afraid of him."
Lin Yuyao sighed and said, "It's not a question of whether you're afraid or not. That guy is a good fighter. Don't worry, it won't be inconvenient. I'll tell my husband tonight not to come back tomorrow night and stay in the dormitory."
At this time, Song Qin stood up and said, "Why is it so troublesome? Xiaotong will sleep with me tomorrow night, just in time to keep me company. If he dares to come, I will tickle him to death."
Chen Bingzhi also stood up, "What about me? I live across the street from Sister Song. If he dares to come, I will kill him."
Then he said to Lin Yuyao, "Let me negotiate with Minmin's agent tomorrow. I'll go home and bring my gun with me. If he dares to mess around, I'll shoot him."
The colleagues were all very enthusiastic and invited Ye Xiaotong to go home with them after work tomorrow.
Some people who live far away think that they will never be able to find the man if he comes.
Ye Xiaotong was so moved that she finally chose Song Qin in response to everyone's invitations.
Since Song Qin was also alone, it was a good opportunity for her to go over and keep her company.
Chen Bingzhi lived across from them. Having worked together for a long time, she vaguely knew that the Chen family was very powerful.
"Then I'll have to trouble Sister Song and Xiao Chen."
"Why are you being polite? It's my honor to protect my sisters."
Ye Xiaotong made all the arrangements, and Lin Yuyao felt relieved.
"We don't live far away. If anything happens at night, remember to come find us."
Chen Bingzhi said, "Don't worry. If I can't handle a mountain guy, I won't be around anymore."
This means that Chen Bingzhi looks rather young and has a feminine appearance.
Not to mention the mountain man, in Lin Yuyao's opinion, he might not even be able to beat Sister Song.
