When it was time to remove the needle, Su Yuhe did it quickly, just as Liping was getting dressed. Then she said:
"Eat and sleep well, follow my method, and both mother and child will be safe. I'm going back first."
Yu Liping and the old lady sent Su Yuhe out.
After closing the door, the old lady couldn't help but say, "It costs so much money every month."
Yu Liping called out "Mom," "This is our Qiao family's child. Haven't you always wanted me to have a child?"
The old lady pursed her lips and said nothing. For a moment, she didn't know whether she cared more about the money or her future grandson.
Regarding the canal construction, Gu Nanshan and several other teachers and students worked out a plan and sent it to the higher authorities for approval.
Jiang Lin was once again called upon to accompany Gu Nanshan and the others up the mountain.
Several people came to the educated youth point, including Song Zhiguo and several male educated youth, and Lu Jianrong also came for some reason.
Li Yunheng suggested: "The rocks are very hard and can be used as materials for canal construction. The problem is how to move the rocks down the mountain."
Jiang Jianguo: "Oh, this, we are all members of the labor union, carrying things on our shoulders and backs, so this is the only way. However, there are no stones left on the mountain that can be used for construction."
Li Yunheng: "Who said there aren't any? Where are all those big rocks?"
Jiang Dali: "How can you lift those?"
Gu Nanshan suddenly nodded at Jiang Lin: "What do you think?"
Lu Jianrong looked at Jiang Lin jealously, waiting to see what suggestions this second-rate guy would come up with.
Song Zhiguo was about to speak, but he didn't expect Gu Nanshan to call on Jiang Lin specifically.
They are the educated young people. Isn't it funny to ask Jiang Lin about such things?
He pursed his lips and said nothing more in front of Gu Nanshan.
Even Li Yunheng couldn't understand why his teacher repeatedly looked at this man with a landlord background differently instead of asking his several legitimate students?
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin was very self-conscious and acted as a background board, holding a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, looking at the wild fruits on the mountain, thinking that he would pick a bag of them and bring them back for Su Yuhe to eat.
I didn’t expect that Gu Nanshan would choose it.
He hadn't been paying attention just now, and when he was called upon, he let out a confused "ah".
Li Yunheng snorted and laughed. How could this peasant, who didn't even listen to the class, come up with a solution?
Gu Nanshan didn't seem to mind his distraction and repeated the question, "Do you think the rocks on the mountain can be used to build a canal?"
"Yes," Jiang Lin replied. "To build the courtyard wall, many people came up the mountain to carry stones down to build it. But now there are only large stones left on the mountain."
Gu Nanshan nodded: "You are right. In your opinion, how can we move these large stones down the mountain to build a canal?"
Jiang Lin laughed. "How do we move this down the mountain? It's such a big piece, most of it is still inside the mountain, unless we use explosives to blow it up."
Lu Jianrong scoffed, "What a wild idea! Using explosives to blow up rocks."
Gu Nanshan glanced at Lu Jianrong, then looked away and said slowly, "Dynamite is a good thing. It's quite suitable for blasting rocks."
Li Yunheng couldn't help but say, "In our engineering, explosives are commonly used. They're indispensable for tunnel construction and mine excavation. How can you imagine this? Otherwise, how can we expect to dig through these rocks manually?"
Lu Jianrong was speechless and seemed a little stupid, so he kept silent afterwards.
He is just a student who has just finished high school. Although Jiang Lin did not study much, he has been working outside and has been involved in things that Lu Jianrong cannot compare with.
Gu Nanshan asked Li Yunheng to take other fellow apprentices to check the canal route again to make sure there was no problem.
He started chatting with Jiang Lin. Seeing Jiang Lin's spirit and that he was not depressed by the issue of the ingredients, he couldn't help but talk to Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin looked at the wild fruits on the mountain and wondered why this old man was so talkative. If he wanted to blow up the mountain, he could just go ahead and do it. Why was he holding him and talking to him?
Even though he thought so, Jiang Lin still had to deal with Gu Nanshan's words.
Seeing Jiang Lin looking at the wild fruits on the mountain, Gu Nanshan smiled and asked, "Are you going to pick some fruits when you go down the mountain? Are you going to bring some for your younger brothers and sisters?"
Jiang Lin was stunned for a moment, then his eyes softened when he thought of Su Yuhe: "No, I brought it for my wife."
Gu Nanshan raised his eyebrows: "Are you married?"
Jiang Jianguo interjected, "They got married in May. This guy is lucky to have married an educated youth from the city who is also very pretty."
Gu Nanshan nodded: "It's good to get married. Xiao Jiang is a good person, hardworking and intelligent, but not too eager for quick success. If my father had this mentality back then, he wouldn't have ended up like this..."
Jiang Lin turned around to pick fruit and didn't hear what Gu Nanshan said.
…
Ye Yunshu was weaving bamboo baskets at home. Instead of waiting for Qian Guilan, she waited for Ye Zubao and Yuan Chunhua.
Ye Yunshu opened the door with some surprise: "Second brother?"
Ye Zubao and his wife came empty-handed. Yuan Chunhua pushed Ye Zubao and asked him to speak.
Ye Zubao called out "Big Sister", and Yuan Chunhua laughed and kept looking into the yard, her eyes exploring something like a motor.
There was no sound inside. Yuan Chunhua knew that Su Yuhe and Jiang Lin were definitely not at home. She put on a smile and called out "Big Sister".
Ye Yunshu pursed her lips: "Why are you here?"
Yuan Chunhua pinched Ye Zubao, who then frowned, "Big sister, you won't even let me in to have a drink of water when my second brother comes to your house?"
Ye Yunshu had a blank expression on her face: "Second brother, if there's nothing else, you should go home. Brother Lin will be back soon."
Come back soon, that means you haven't come back yet.
Yuan Chunhua felt more at ease and pushed Ye Zubao in.
"You guys..." Ye Yunshu shouted irritably.
Mei Lanyue heard the sound and walked to the door of the main hall with a cane, staring at them emotionlessly with her cloudy old eyes.
Ye Zubao and the other two were so frightened that they jumped back and didn't dare to go in. They turned around and sat in the yard.
Ye Yunshu had a bad attitude: "What on earth are you doing here?"
Ye Zubao rubbed his hands and said, "Big sister, you know about our mother's hospitalization, right? Each person needs to pay 40 yuan, so you should take your share as well."
"I don't have any money."
Ye Zubao was stunned, then laughed: "How come you don't have money?"
He looked around the yard. Since Su Yuhe moved in, he had transplanted some flowers, plants and shrubs, and it seemed to have restored the original appearance of the landlord's house.
He said, "My nephew's wedding was so grand, the news spread all over the village, how could he not have money?"
"How could I have money?" Ye Yunshu sighed. "Before, I was blind and couldn't go to work, and you cut off all ties with me. Only Lin Ge'er worked to earn work points in the family, and he was working in a fifth-class land. Where were you when the whole family was starving to death?
Although I am no longer blind, I still only have Ling'er and Yuhe working. Where do you think I get the money?"
Yuan Chunhua was anxious: "Why don't you have it? I heard that you gave twenty yuan to Big Brother. What's wrong? He is your brother, but Zubao is not?"
