It was dark when Lin Ximan returned home. She was tired after running around all day, so she packed up and went to bed.
She didn't have any fun at all during this holiday. This trip to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs left her with no money, deprived her of her time for fun, and she was also bullied. It was really a big loss. She hopes not to be assigned here after graduation.
The days that followed were rather dull, with everyone doing what they were supposed to do. The men pursuing Lin Ximan still came to the girls' dormitory every day to report in, but Lin Ximan still ignored them, and everyone just sat there and watched the show.
Time slipped away little by little between the books in the hands of students, and 1979 arrived with the sound of firecrackers.
This year's winter vacation is different from previous ones because she knows that the news she has been waiting for for many years will be announced today.
Winter vacation has begun and another New Year has arrived. The arrival of 1979 has brought countless sources of happiness to Lin Ximan's heart.
This year the special zone will be approved, the land there will be auctioned, and that will be where she will take off.
On the day of the Little New Year, she received a telegram from Suzhou, saying that someone was finally selling the garden. She immediately dropped everything and took the train to Suzhou.
The garden is located between the city and the suburbs, so it is not small, with nearly 20 acres of land. However, it has been badly damaged and there are only a few intact houses. One can only see its former beauty from the ruins, otherwise such a large garden would not be returned.
The dilapidated state of this place has prevented others from having ideas about living here, so no one lives here, otherwise it would not have become what it is now. In this way, it is hard to say whether it is better to have people living here or not.
Because the land is large, but now it can only be sold for the land price, so the deal was made for 50,000 yuan. However, this time it can only be regarded as buying a piece of land, and the garden seems to be built by herself. If this is the case, then she doesn't mind buying a few more pieces of land.
The garden here in Gusu is almost completed, although only the land is left. However, we have the original drawings and photos of the completion, so we can restore it to that appearance later. The current master craftsmen are still alive, so we should be able to start construction here next year.
Before returning to Beijing, she asked Bao Tiao to buy the adjacent land and asked him to find out when it would be sold, or to find the owner of the land and ask if he could sell it. After leaving the message, she went back with peace of mind.
It was just the Spring Festival travel rush when I returned, and educated youth from all over the country began to go home. At this time, the horror of the Spring Festival travel rush had already become apparent.
Unable to buy a sleeper ticket, she could only buy a hard seat first and then buy a ticket. As the saying goes, money talks, she added ten yuan and finally got a sleeper ticket. She clattered all the way to Kyoto, and when she got off the train, she felt like she was still shaking.
Chinese people have a special obsession with the Chinese New Year. After the special activities are over, people can finally do some things during the Chinese New Year that they could not do before.
There are many more items in the New Year's goods than before, such as Spring Festival couplets, hanging signs, blessing characters, firecrackers, etc.
While the New Year atmosphere is in full swing here in China, in a foreign country thousands of miles away, on an isolated island, the flames of war are still raging. The ground is littered with corpses, including animals, humans, foreigners with blond hair and white skin, and Asians with black hair and yellow skin.
As the last enemy fell, the gunfire stopped and the surviving side began to clean up the battlefield, count the number of people, and do some follow-up work.
A few days later, two men were standing on the deck of a cargo ship. One of them was older, probably middle-aged.
"Mo Hu, you completed this mission perfectly. I will submit the report for you, but because this mission is top secret and your whereabouts are also top secret, we changed your identity information when you first received this mission.
Remember, after you left Longcheng County, you went directly to the front line and never left, understand?"
"Understood." The young man answered, standing at attention.
"The reason why you are placed on this cargo ship is because you have a mission and cannot return home. This ship will take you to the outpost closest to the border, and then you will go to the outpost secretly. This is the information you will receive later. You must memorize it. There is also a route map for you to get to the front line. You must remember it." The middle-aged man handed a note to the young man opposite.
"Because this mission is top secret, we can't commend you openly, but we can arrange the commendation for this mission based on your performance in subsequent missions. No one can take away your credit!"
"Yes, I will obey the leader's arrangements." The middle-aged man patted the young man on the shoulder and let him go back to rest.
When the cargo ship reached Hainan, the middle-aged man got off the ship, and the cargo ship continued to carry the people on board as planned. Half a month later, the young man got off the ship and went ashore to the arranged base and began to prepare for the next mission.
He didn't know that his little girl had disappeared.
Lin Ximan was busy with the start of school. She still had to go to school after the New Year, and her roommates also returned to school one after another before the start of the school term.
Everyone brought local specialties from their hometown. After all, food is the most important thing nowadays!
But some food can only be eaten after being cooked, so everyone finally unanimously decided to go to Lin Ximan's house, because other people's homes were too small to accommodate so many people at once, and it was so cold outside, and they all lived in a large courtyard.
Of course there was no problem going to my own home, but there was not enough room in one car, so everyone took the bus to the Imperial City.
When they reached the gate, Lan Yuling shouted, "Manman, so your family is so rich! It turns out that the people who lived here were either the prime ministers or the imperial merchants. I heard about this from my great grandfather when I was a child!"
