Chapter 139 Yang Dan's Letter
After the garment factory got on track, Li Ruolan rarely went there. Deng Minghao would look for a good place to fish from time to time, and the fishermen he knew were all good and bad.
Relying on the help of these fishermen, Deng Minghao brought a lot of business to the garment factories and weaving factories.
The clothes designed by Qin Wan are very beautiful and fashionable. In addition, now is the time of openness, and the business of the garment factory is getting better and better.
There are nearly 500 people working in the factory.
Qin Wan and Lu Yunxiao were very busy, but Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao had some time to relax. Li Ruolan looked after the children, while Deng Minghao went fishing when he had time.
Liu Kunming's weaving factory's business was getting better and better. After he had money, he bought a lot of machines that could produce new fabrics.
No other factories have such advanced machines at present, and scarcity makes things valuable, so the weaving factory negotiated several big deals in one go.
At the end of the year, the dividends from the garment factory and the weaving factory were a huge sum of money, and Li Ruolan took it all to the bank and deposited it into her passbook.
In 1980, during the Chinese New Year, the three families simply celebrated together. Qin Wan looked at Li Ruolan, whose skin was as white as snow and whose complexion was very good, and her tone was full of envy and jealousy.
"After the garment factory got on track, you never went there again. You stayed at home every day. Look at you now, a rich lady."
Li Ruolan chuckled twice, then shoved a big chicken leg for Qin Wan: "My fault, you are the one who has worked the hardest, hurry up and eat a chicken leg to make up for it.
Work hard after you finish the repair. Without you, I can't be a rich wife. For my good life, you have to work hard. "
Xia Zhen nodded in agreement and gave Qin Wan a chicken drumstick: "My family's weaving factory was also driven by your clothing factory. You have worked very hard. Thank you for your hard work."
Qin Wan took her bowl away and said, "That's too much. You two are enjoying yourself, and you can't let me say a few words? You gang up on me and bully me."
The two elderly people happily watched the children laughing and playing, and saw groups of grandchildren watching TV in front of the TV. The New Year atmosphere was very strong.
After the New Year, Qin Wan and her husband continued to be busy.
Li Ruolan is still doing nothing at home. She goes back to the space when no one is around. Now they no longer need to use the space to produce various things, so they treat the space as a vacation place.
Deng Minghao came back with the fish, but didn't find Li Ruolan outside, so he entered the space and saw Li Ruolan opening a durian.
"You were eating delicious food without even calling me." Deng Minghao also came over. The two of them shared half of the durian. They couldn't finish the remaining half, so they put it back in the warehouse.
Li Ruolan lay comfortably on the recliner: "I used to only be able to eat durian once a month, but now I can finally enjoy durian freely."
Deng Minghao also squeezed over, and the two of them lay on the recliner together: "The days of playing badly are so cool."
After resting for a while, Deng Minghao suddenly said, "By the way, I just received a letter from Yang Dan."
Although Li Ruolan and the others have returned, they still write letters to Yang Dan and Wang Xiumei sometimes.
The two would reply to each other's letters from time to time, but Li Ruolan didn't take it seriously at all. She asked Deng Minghao to bring the letter so she could see what was written on it.
After opening it and taking a few glances, Li Ruolan sat up from the recliner, frowning and looking a little unhappy.
Deng Minghao asked: "What's wrong? What's in the letter?"
After Li Ruolan finished reading the letter, she said, "Yang Dan's husband died, and her mother-in-law kicked her and Xiao Yanhong out."
Yang Dan and her husband have two children. The first is a son, the same age as Qingqing and Ningning. The second is a girl, who is three years old this year.
Deng Minghao also frowned: "What happened? How could Yang Dan's husband die out of nowhere?"
Li Ruolan gave the letter to Deng Minghao: "Yang Dan had a miscarriage, and her mother-in-law was unwilling to give her food to nourish her body, so Yang Dan's husband went up the mountain to get some game for her.
Unexpectedly, he rolled down the mountain and hit his head on a rock. He died within two days of being sent to the hospital.
Yang Dan's mother-in-law thought that Yang Dan had killed her son, so she kept her eldest grandson and drove Yang Dan and Xiao Yanhong out.
The two of them are now living in our old house.”
After reading the letter, Deng Minghao glanced at Li Ruolan and asked, "What do you think?"
Yang Dan and Wang Xiumei were originally in the same team with Li Ruolan. They went to work and went home together with Aunt Guihua.
They get along very well with Li Ruolan, and they have no bad intentions. Yang Dan wrote to her just to ask Li Ruolan for help.
"How about letting them come to Beijing? There are business opportunities everywhere now. Just a little guidance for them can change the status quo.
Let them come over. If they stay in that cave, they don’t know what will happen to them.”
A widow whose husband has died will still have a hard life even if she stands on her own and lives with her children.
No matter what she does, she will face a lot of rumors, and working alone in the countryside, she can only support herself and her daughter.
Deng Minghao put his hands under his head and said, "It's up to you. I don't care."
Li Ruolan stood up immediately, went out, wrote a letter to Yang Dan, and put thirty yuan in the letter.
If the mother and daughter really want to come, this money is enough for them to buy train tickets.
After sending the letter, it took nearly two months for Yang Dan to receive the letter because the Victory Brigade was still surrounded by heavy snow.
When Yang Dan received the letter, there was blood at the corner of his mouth, his hair was messy, and his clothes were a little torn.
Last night, someone broke into her room secretly. Ever since Yang Dan brought Xiao Yanhong out to live with her, she always felt uneasy at night.
On several occasions, Yang Dan found that someone tried to climb over the wall at night, but she and her daughter were now living in Li Ruolan's yard.
The earth walls on both sides were two meters high, and one side was adjacent to the educated youth site, while the other side was adjacent to Qin Wan and her friends' yard. It was impossible to climb over them easily without some skills.
Later, Yang Dan inserted a lot of porcelain pieces on the wall, and with the snow and ice everywhere, he finally had a month of peace.
But now that spring has returned and the snow is showing signs of melting, Yang Dan's place is becoming uneasy again. Yesterday, a man sneaked in in the dark.
Fortunately, Yang Dan was not sleeping soundly and she also placed a machete next to her pillow for self-defense. In the dark night, she confronted a strange tall man for a long time and drove the man away.
After everyone left, Yang Dan hugged Xiao Yanhong, who was so scared that she couldn't even cry, and cried until she was hoarse.
When the mother and daughter cried themselves to sleep and woke up, Yang Dan received a letter from the courier, a letter written to her by Li Ruolan.
