Little Tiger ran out and opened the door. He was very happy to see that it was his sister.
Lanlan also followed out. She missed her sister very much after not seeing her for many days, and she started crying.
Lian Xiaomin picked up the pretty round-faced girl and walked into the house.
"Lanlan, don't cry. You're already 8 years old this year. You're a big kid now. Your sister is here."
There was a bicycle parked in the yard, and it was obvious that Yan Haixia had come.
Sure enough, when the two little kids who opened the door entered the house, my good friend was teaching them seriously.
"Xiaomin, you're here! It's noon now and today's class is over."
The children immediately got off the kang happily and surrounded Lian Xiaomin.
Little Xinghua is the youngest. She holds her arm tightly and puts her little face on her sister's arm.
Lian Xiaomin hugged Xiao Xinghua and talked to Haixia.
"I was away for a while and went to Shanghai to see Uncle Zhao. They are doing well... You can eat here at noon. I have something to tell you."
"Okay, I'll cook for you. You can't cook anyway!"
Lian Xiaomin grinned: "I want to eat stewed pork ribs~ I brought a lot of food today, it's in the yard."
She brought a basket of vegetables and half a sack of meat today and put them directly in the yard. She also had to put them away in the utility room.
Xiao Xinghua and the children did not let go, and Yunlai had already put on his cotton-padded jacket.
"Sister, I'll go put it away and help Teacher Yan cook. You stay in the room and rest."
Yunlai is thirteen years old this year. After being raised for some time, he is no longer as thin as a dog. He is really a handsome brother, a real brother of mine.
Now he is dressed neatly and takes good care of his younger siblings. He is truly a rare good child.
At noon, Yan Haixia cooked several delicious dishes.
It's rare that Xiaomin comes over, so I ordered stewed pork ribs with sauerkraut, braised pork slices, and fried eggplant boxes... Anyway, she is rich and brought so much old meat, so I just cook it, they are all her favorites.
It can be said that Yan Haixia is truly a person of both talent and beauty. Not only is she beautiful and has a good personality, she is also a great cook.
It’s no wonder that Zhao Liming, that spirited young man, is completely devoted to her.
At noon, everyone had a delicious meal together. Lian Xiaomin thought that it might be rare to have such authentic Northeastern cuisine in the future.
Qian Daxi’s wife Yueya can cook, but hers is not as delicious as Haixia’s.
After dinner, the children went to take a nap. Lian Xiaomin and Yan Haixia cleaned up the table and sat down to chat.
"Haixia, I have a good friend in Shanghai who helped me solve a problem. What is it?"
She took out the entry form for the job.
Yan Haixia took a look. A job opening at the Shanghai Shipyard? Or a driver position... this?
Lian Xiaomin smiled and explained, "This is the job I got. I'll give it to your brother Yan Ruogu so that he can be transferred back to his hometown in Shanghai and leave the production team in Fengtian."
Yan Haixia couldn't believe it!
This job is not easy. Even if Uncle Zhao Chuzhou has the ability, he could only find a temporary job for me.
Xiaomin is now repaying the favor and got such a good job!
Shipyard, driver, regular worker.
It is so difficult.
"Xiao Min, I really don't know what to say! You helped me again, ah... well, how much did you spend? I have to give it to you no matter what I say."
Lian Xiaomin waved her hands: "I don't want your money. Although I gave away some things, I didn't spend any money, so it doesn't count as buying them. Besides, where can you buy a job like this? Don't talk to me about money."
I really didn't pay for it. I bought the job by selling 8,000 kilograms of flour at a low price.
For Lian Xiaomin, food is not a problem.
Yan Haixia was so moved that she grabbed Xiaomin's hand and her voice choked with sobs.
"Xiaomin, thank you so much..."
She also hoped that her younger brother could live a better life and leave the place where he was sent to work in the countryside.
The main reason was that Ruogu wrote a letter to complain, because he was more or less affected by his father's demotion.
Nothing good happened to him. He was a young man with excellent academic performance, but after joining the team, he could only do farm work. How could it not be hard?
Fengtian is further north and the temperature is lower than that in Jianye County. It is extremely cold in winter, and one feels that the future is hopeless, which must have made one feel bad.
In fact, this is the difficulty faced by every educated youth who went to the countryside to work. If anyone's family has the ability, they would be unwilling to be transferred back to the city.
Lian Xiaomin patted her shoulder and said, "We are good friends. You help me and I help you. It's nothing."
After such a long time of interaction, I can tell that Yan Haixia is indeed a very good person.
You can tell from how seriously she teaches these kids that she definitely doesn't come only two days a week, she probably comes often.
This also takes up her time and energy, all out of her warm-heartedness and kindness, as well as her sincere affection for her friends.
"Please keep this phone number. Director Yu is my friend's brother-in-law. He is considered one of our own. If you need his assistance with any paperwork, just contact him."
"…There is still more than a week before the Chinese New Year. Let Yan Ruogu spend the Spring Festival and then buy a train ticket back to Shanghai. These few days won't be a big deal. However, we should complete the formalities in Fengtian as soon as possible."
In fact, there is no "seven-day New Year holiday" in this era. At most, we have two days off and then we continue to produce.
So Yan Ruogu can go back to report after the Spring Festival.
Yan Haixia nodded repeatedly: "I understand. I will send a telegram to Ruogu this afternoon and ask him to call Brother Liming's unit and tell him in detail."
Lian Xiaomin thought about it and told Yan Haixia the truth.
"Haixia, after the Chinese New Year, at the end of March, I may have to leave Sandagou and take these five children with me. You don't have to continue to help take care of them. Come to class."
"...You don't need to ask too much. It's not like I won't come back again. I'll just come less often. We'll see each other again."
Yan Haixia was stunned when she heard this, but she kept Xiaomin's matter absolutely confidential. If she didn't tell anyone, she wouldn't ask.
"Xiao Min, when you leave here, if there is anything you need me to do, just tell me. No matter where you go, I believe everything will be fine. You have to take care of yourself... I will definitely miss you a lot."
Lian Xiaomin patted her shoulder and said, "Me too. By the way, after I leave, if you go to Sandagou to secretly visit your parents, go to my aunt's house to find Yufang. She will cover for you. I will tell her in advance to quietly take care of the two old people in the cowshed."
Yan Haixia nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with tears.
Meeting Xiaomin in this life is the luckiest thing in her life.
Yan Haixia went back, and before leaving, Lian Xiaomin gave her a bag with two pork elbows and two large lamb legs in it.
They were all wild boars and wild goats. He said he had hunted them and asked her to take them back to eat with Zhao Liming.
I watched her get on her bike and go out the door before I turned around and went back into the house.
