In the next few days, Lin Qingfeng and Liu Mei went to work during the day, Lin Chen and Lin Wan went to school, and Lin Yanbai went out for a walk nearby.
After a few days, Lin Yanbai had a preliminary understanding of the surrounding area, but after that, he was in trouble.
The largest factory in the surrounding area is the textile factory where Lin Qingfeng and Liu Mei work. The welfare benefits are very good. What makes Yan Bai excited is that the textile factory also has an affiliated middle school, where Lin Wan and Lin Chen both go to school.
This would be more convenient for Yan Bai to go to school and attend classes if she takes the college entrance examination.
Moreover, according to Xiao Qi's internal information, the textile factory will release a batch of recruitment vacancies in a few days. Although the original owner has never been to school, Lin Yanbai is a modern person who has passed the college entrance examination. She is still very confident that she can pass the textile factory examination.
However, what made her feel embarrassed was that because the original owner had only attended elementary school, she could not take the exam for an office position and could only work on the assembly line in the workshop. This made Lin Yanbai feel a little embarrassed at the moment.
Just when Lin Yanbai hadn't figured out what to do next, Liu Mei couldn't hold it in any longer at the dinner table. She first glanced at Lin Qingfeng inconspicuously and gave him a wink.
Lin Qingfeng glanced at Yan Bai, his lips twitching, but he said nothing. Xiao Qi noticed their little action.
"Baibai, what are they doing? What do they want to say? Is it so difficult to speak?" Xiaoqi asked in confusion. Humans are so complicated.
Lin Yanbai probably knew what the couple were going to say, because under Lin Wan's various excuses, Lin Yanbai did not move into her room. Lin Qingfeng cleaned up a corner of the living room for her and hung a curtain on the bed to separate it. This corner was very close to Liu Mei and their bedroom, so she accidentally overheard the conversation between Lin Qingfeng and Liu Mei last night.
"Qingfeng, Yan Bai has been here for almost half a month. It's not a good thing for such a grown-up girl to run around doing nothing all the time!" Liu Mei said worriedly.
Hearing this, Lin Qingfeng stopped what he was doing and said, "I was thinking about this too. Why don't we talk to the factory and let Yan Bai go to school as well? That way Chenchen and the others can take care of him."
Liu Mei seemed a little unhappy. "That's easy for you to say. Our family's situation is already a bit tight with Chenchen and Wanwan going to school. If we add Yan Bai to the family, I guess our combined salaries will be a bit stretched."
This is indeed a practical problem. Lin Qingfeng was silent for a long time. "If that doesn't work, just take out the money from your passbook!"
Hearing this, Liu Mei couldn't believe it. "Are you crazy? That's the money I saved for Chenchen and Wanwan to find jobs. They're graduating soon. What are we going to do then? Send them to the countryside? You know how hard life is in the countryside. How can they endure it?"
After that, the bedroom was silent. After a long while, Liu Mei spoke up: "I heard from our workshop director that the factory will be hiring in a few days. Yan Bai has never been to school, so he definitely won't be able to pass the exam to become a formal worker. However, we can find Director Sun and let Yan Bai work as a temporary worker first. Although it's a bit tiring, but...or...let Yan Bai go!"
After a long time, a low voice came from the air: "Let's do it this way for now!"
In the living room, Lin Yanbai curled the corners of his mouth sarcastically.
The next day, Liu Mei winked at Lin Qingfeng, signaling him to speak, but Lin Qingfeng moved his lips but ultimately couldn't say anything!
Seeing that Lin Qingfeng couldn't be relied upon, Liu Mei spoke first: "Yan Bai, have you been getting used to being in Yanjing these past few days?"
"It's okay. I was a little uncomfortable at first, but I'm much better now. Thank you, Mom!"
"That's fine... um..." Liu Mei was a little hesitant to open her mouth. She glanced at her husband sitting next to her and kicked him quietly.
After receiving the message from his wife, Lin Qingfeng hesitated for a moment and said, "This is what's going on, Yan Bai. You're already sixteen or seventeen years old. It's not a good idea to stay at home all the time. The factory is recruiting in a few days. Why don't you give it a try?"
"How can she be capable? Doesn't one have to take an exam to enter a factory? Can she write? Don't go there, you'll just embarrass yourself." Without waiting for Yan Bai to answer, Lin Wan couldn't wait to squeeze him.
Hearing this, Lin Yanbai seemed extremely sad and lowered his head quietly.
In fact, "Xiao Qi, how's my performance? I've integrated sadness, loss, and inferiority into this bow. I don't believe they don't feel guilty!"
Xiao Qi: ...Why did it have to deal with such a guy?
Sure enough, seeing Lin Yanbai's "dispirited" look, Lin Qingfeng suddenly slammed his chopsticks on the bowl, "Lin Wan, that's your sister, how can you say that? Apologize to your sister!"
Listening to Lin Qingfeng's scolding, Lin Wan felt a little annoyed. "Dad, why are you yelling? I didn't say anything wrong. Ask her," and pointed at Yan Bai. "Ask her if she's studying in the countryside. Maybe there isn't even a school! I think she's lucky enough to be a temporary worker. I'm afraid there's nowhere for her to work as a temporary worker!"
"Enough!" Lin Qingfeng shouted. "That countryside you're talking about where there's no school is where your father and I came from. He grew up there! Look at what you've become now? Is that how your mother and I raised you?"
Lin Wan glanced at Yan Bai who was lowering his head beside her. She seemed to feel humiliated by her father's yelling. She suddenly turned around and ran into the room crying.
Seeing Lin Wan's figure, Liu Mei hurriedly chased after her, "You are so annoying, she is still a child, why are you angry with her?" Before leaving, she deliberately glanced at Yan Bai who was sitting on the seat, her eyes full of dissatisfaction.
Seeing that his sister and mother had left, Lin Chen, who had been silent beside them, quietly followed.
"Xiao Qi, did you see the look in Liu Mei's eyes? It's so ridiculous. It's obviously the younger daughter who was wronged, and the older daughter did something wrong, but she turns around and blames the younger daughter, huh!" No matter what, she must become independent first, and then slowly leave the Lin family.
She turned her head to look at Lin Qingfeng who was smoking beside her, and an idea came to her mind. She knew Lin Qingfeng very well. He was not like Liu Mei. Liu Mei's heart was very small, filled with Lin Chen and Lin Wan. To Liu Mei, her little daughter might be only slightly better than a stranger.
But Lin Qingfeng is different. He is soft-hearted. He feels a little guilty towards his daughter who did not grow up by his side. Although it is not much, it is enough for Lin Yanbai.
Lin Qingfeng was smoking a cigarette in a restless mood when he suddenly heard a sound like a kitten whimpering beside him: "Dad—"
He turned to look at his skinny little daughter.
"Dad, I heard from my sister that you need to take an exam to become a worker, right? My sister is wrong. There is a junior high school in the village!" As she spoke, she rubbed the corner of her clothes nervously. "Although I have never been to school, I often go to school to attend classes. Teacher Li in the village said that except for not having a diploma, I am no different from them. My grades are even better than theirs!" After she finished speaking, her little face turned red, and she lowered her head again as if she was embarrassed.
The image of a little girl eager to perform in front of her father and receive praise was perfectly portrayed. Xiao Qi, who was watching the live broadcast in her mind, was stunned. When it comes to acting, you still have to be the best, host.
Seeing Yan Bai like this, Lin Qingfeng's heart softened. He was about to offer some comfort when he suddenly realized that, apart from not having a diploma, he was practically no different from a junior high school student. Did that mean...
Thinking of this, he suddenly became excited.
