"How old are you? Still acting like a child. Did someone bully you?"
Lin Wangshu complained that Weimin had always been a crybaby since he was a child, and when he was bullied, all he knew to do was go home and call for his brother.
Jiang Weimin wiped away his tears and smiled sheepishly, "No, I was just so happy to see you."
He had never been so far from home before, nor had he ever suffered any hardship. On his first day working in the fields, his hands were blistered.
The pain made him cry in bed at night, and he couldn't help but feel wronged, as if his whole family had abandoned him.
Now that I've seen my familiar family, my heart is finally at peace.
The village was very welcoming to the theater troupe and gave them their house in the village committee.
"Big sister, let me take you to our former educated youth settlement. They all knew you were coming and wanted me to take you there as a guest!"
As soon as he put down his luggage, Jiang Weimin couldn't wait to pull Lin Wangshu outside.
"Jingjing, I'm going out for a bit." Lin Wangshu was pushed out by him, looking helpless.
Song Jing waved her hand with a smile, "Go quickly!"
"Sister, let me tell you, everyone in our educated youth settlement is so nice."
"And since they knew I couldn't cook, they told me to just wait and eat."
“My best friend, Brother Xu, saw that I couldn’t handle the hardship of farming, and even offered to give me the job he had just found.”
Jiang Weimin was so excited that he kept talking, recounting his brief experience as a sent-down youth in great detail.
Lin Wangshu remained silent the entire way, simply listening quietly.
He gave Jiang Weimin, who was rambling on and on, a rather strange look.
I don't see anything special about this kid's personality, so how come he's become so popular here?
Upon hearing the last part, Lin Wangshu was startled and looked at him seriously, "You agreed?"
"Promise what?" Jiang Weimin asked, puzzled.
"Agree to take over Brother Xu's job!" Lin Wangshu said urgently, seeing his bewildered expression.
Jiang Weimin looked at her serious expression and nodded somewhat fearfully, "I agree."
Perhaps afraid of being scolded by Lin Wangshu, he quickly cried and said, "Sister, you don't know, I'm exhausted from working in the fields every day. I really can't go on for another day."
"Didn't your parents say they wanted you to hang in there for a few more days? They said they'd find you a job in Qingdao. Do you want to stay here forever?"
Lin Wangshu wished she could crack open his head to see what was inside and how he could do something so stupid.
"Besides, you're not related to him at all. Why would he give you his job? He's definitely thinking about getting more out of you!"
Jiang Weimin was completely bewildered by her words and subconsciously retorted, "No, he's not that kind of person."
"Moreover," Jiang Weimin said with a hint of pride, "his sister Xu Hong has taken a liking to me, otherwise he wouldn't be so nice to me."
"So, have you taken a liking to her?" Lin Wangshu hesitated. If Jiang Weimin really liked Xu Hong, was it necessary for her to interfere in his life?
Jiang Weimin chuckled awkwardly, "I'm considering it right now."
Looking at his expression, Lin Wangshu asked suspiciously, "You're not planning to offer yourself up for work, are you?"
Jiang Weimin looked embarrassed; she had clearly hit the nail on the head.
Lin Wangshu slapped him hard on the back of the head. "If you dare to do something like this, I'll have your second brother beat you to death when we get back!"
"How can you do this to that girl?"
Jiang Weimin covered his head with a mournful face, "I was wrong, okay? I'll go back and refuse them."
Then he muttered under his breath, "You guys are really biased, you all love hitting people on the head."
Lin Wangshu heard this and narrowed her eyes dangerously. "What did you say?"
Jiang Weimin remained silent, trembling with fear.
Lin Wangshu nodded in satisfaction, "When I get back, I'll urge my dad to find you a job as soon as possible, so that he doesn't delay any longer and end up holding his grandson."
Upon arriving at the educated youth settlement, a man and a woman were waiting at the entrance.
Jiang Weimin introduced them as Xu Qing and Xu Hong, siblings.
The brother and sister both seemed very smooth-talking. Xu Qing put her arm around Jiang Weimin's shoulder, showing a close relationship. "Seeing family must make you feel much better!"
Xu Hong stepped forward and took Lin Wangshu's arm, smiling warmly, "You must be Weimin's sister, right? You're so beautiful, much prettier than him."
As she spoke, she gave Jiang Weimin a coquettish look, her words conveying a very affectionate tone.
Jiang Weimin felt uncomfortable hearing her speak to him like that, but he didn't know how to refute her.
After all, among his siblings, he was the only one who resembled Jiang Defu. Although he wasn't ugly, he wasn't as handsome as his two older brothers.
Lin Wangshu was not used to being embraced by strangers like this, so she subtly pulled her hand away and said with a smile, "Hello, thank you for taking care of my brother."
Xu Hong's hands were empty, but she didn't mind. She smiled and invited her inside, "We're not outsiders, why are you being so polite? Come in, the food is ready."
"I know you like peace and quiet, so today it's just the four of us, no one else."
Looking at the large amount of meat and fish on the table, Lin Wangshu was somewhat surprised, "Your meals are really good!"
Xu Hong glanced at Jiang Weimin and said admiringly, "This is all thanks to Weimin."
Jiang Weimin chuckled twice, "I can't cook, so of course I have to pay more."
Lin Wangshu understood; no wonder he spent his money so quickly.
Because Jiang Weidong had been promoted in the past two years and his allowance had increased significantly, Lin Wangshu saw that Weimin was the only one suffering in the countryside, so he asked Jiang Weidong to give him some extra money every month.
