The third batch is people like Lin Qiang, who are still in elementary school and have to wait four or five years to take the high school entrance exam.
Lin Yin, Lin Han and Lin Bao belong to the second batch. They have already entered junior high school. The high school entrance examination will be held in the next two years.
The village already has a pride like Lin Han, so the village chief also hopes that the village can have a few more high school students to bring honor to the village.
"Brother Yubao."
The village chief shouted.
"There are so many people in your family. Lin Dong and Lin Tong are all working. Even though your family lost 500, you still have four people working and earning money. After Meimei and Aihua have their babies in two months, there will be two more people working. You said your family finally had a junior high school student, and it's a pity to send him off like this."
"What are you talking about!" Shen Hongyan was unhappy: "It's us who lost 500 yuan, not you, so of course you can say such sarcastic words!"
Shen Hongyan is now extremely fed up with Lin Bao.
"If she doesn't drop out of school, who's going to earn money to pay her back? Bullshit!"
"Sister-in-law, you have to think carefully. If Lin Bao finishes school now, he will only have an elementary school diploma. For the rest of his life, he will just work in that textile factory and earn a meager monthly salary."
"But if you let her finish middle school, or even high school, she'll have a diploma. She'll definitely find a better job than working in a textile factory, and she'll definitely earn more money than working in a textile factory!"
The village chief didn't waste time talking to her: "Sister-in-law, think carefully. You can earn less money now or earn more money in a few years. Which one do you choose?"
The village chief is worthy of being the village chief. He has a smart mind and eloquence.
Lin Yubao and Shen Hongyan had previously threatened to chop off Lin Bao's hands and send her to work in a textile factory, but the village chief said a few words and the two hesitated.
After nearly a minute, Lin Yubao gritted his teeth and said, "I can't let these five hundred yuan go to waste!"
Judging from his tone, he seemed to be relieved. The village chief said again: "Lin Bao is your daughter. The monk can run away but the temple cannot. I will pay you back later."
"How about this," the village chief suggested, "Why don't you sign an agreement first? Just treat this five hundred yuan as a loan from Lin Bao. No matter what Lin Bao does in the future, he has to return the five hundred yuan before the wedding. Is that okay?"
Lin Dong thought this was a good idea.
Even if Lin Bao is no longer capable, as her brother, he cannot just watch her get her hand chopped off.
The village chief’s suggestion is good.
Consider the five hundred yuan as a loan from Lin Bao, and he will pay it back later.
Lin Yubao and Shen Hongyan agreed and nodded: "Okay!"
The village chief did not delay and quickly asked his son to go back to the house to tear off a page of homework paper and take a pen. He would still act as the notary.
The village chief wrote down whatever Lin Yubao and Shen Hongyan said.
Lin Dong watched from the side, checking whether the village chief had written anything wrong to fool them.
After all, neither Lin Yubao nor his wife could read.
When it came to the amount owed, Shen Hongyan immediately spoke up, "The 500 yuan you owe now will definitely be worth a lot in two years! Asking her to only pay back 500 yuan would be a huge loss. No, she has to pay more!"
The village chief was helpless: "How much do you want to write?"
"One thousand! It must be one thousand!"
“…”
This couple is really greedy enough that they have set their sights on their own daughter.
Before the village chief could even start writing, Lin Yubao stopped him: "No, I spent so much money, and ended up raising an ungrateful person! I still have to support her schooling in the future, so a thousand is really a loss."
The more Lin Yubao spoke, the more he felt he was right: "Since she paid it back before getting married, she should be paid back for all the food, clothing, and tuition we've spent raising her for so many years."
