Chapter 196: The Educated Youth of the 1970s is a Little Arrogant
"Old Li, it was Lin Zhiqing who saved you."
"If Lin Zhiqing hadn't intervened, you would still be confused!"
When the village chief's wife saw that her husband had finally woken up, she immediately helped him sit up excitedly.
"Lin Zhiqing, is she the new female educated youth?"
It turned out that the village chief had already received news from above that another female educated youth would come to their village.
Although the village chief did not want to accept any more educated youth, the educated youth home was really unable to accommodate them.
But the order from above was that the Yishui Village had to accept this educated youth whether they wanted to or not, so there was nothing they could do but discuss with the educated youth dormitory and arrange for him to move in.
But later, because he was bitten by a poisonous snake, he was in a daze and didn't have time to arrange for someone to pick him up.
Unexpectedly, the little girl came here on her own.
"Uncle Village Chief, you're fine now after taking the antidote, but try to eat more good food to replenish the nutrients you've been missing these days."
"Also, you can't do any heavy work for three days. Your resistance is very low right now. If you force yourself, you might fall ill again!"
Seeing that the man was awake, Lin Wanwan explained clearly the follow-up treatment arrangements for the village chief.
Then he looked at Accountant Qian.
"I've already told Accountant Qian that I want to rent a yard in the village."
"The yard doesn't need to be too big, just enough for me to live in!"
When they heard that Lin Wanwan wanted to rent a yard, not only the village chief but even his wife changed their expressions.
Just as they were about to dissuade her, they heard Lin Wanwan continue speaking.
"I've already told Accountant Qian about the safety issue. I've been learning martial arts from my grandfather since I was a child. Three or five big men are no match for me."
"If the village chief doesn't believe me, you can find some skilled villagers to practice with me. Don't worry, I won't hurt them."
When the village chief saw Lin Wanwan's confident look, he knew that this girl really had this ability.
If she can ensure her own safety, it is not impossible to rent her a house and a yard.
Anyway, those households are empty, and renting them out can bring in extra income for the village.
"There's no need to find someone to train with. I trust Lin Zhiqing's character."
"I'll have Lao Qian take you to pick out the yard later. It's too late today, so I'll give you a day off tomorrow. Please prepare anything you need as soon as possible. We'll officially start work the day after tomorrow."
Although the village chief's snake venom was cleared, he was still very weak.
After giving a few brief instructions, he let Accountant Qian take the person away.
Then I ate some soup and rice made by my wife, and fell asleep again in a daze.
The village chief's wife saw that her husband was really well. He had been sick for so many days and couldn't eat, so it was normal for him to be weak.
After the village chief fell asleep, she went to the yard where Lin Wanwan lived.
Even if the village chief's wife did not go with them, she could roughly guess Lin Wanwan's choice.
There is only one place where the yard is big enough for one person but not too far away from the villagers.
That is the yard at the east end of the village.
It is close to the Youth League Home, where Accountant Qian lives. The back mountain is just a few houses away.
There are several empty courtyards, and only that one is relatively complete and of the right size.
As for the rest of the yard, it’s too big!
Lin Wanwan is just a little girl, it is impossible for her to live in such a big yard.
Otherwise, if the people in the Youth League Institute proposed to live with her, the girl probably wouldn't be happy.
Although they had only met once, the village chief's wife could roughly guess that Lin Wanwan's family must be relatively wealthy.
This is not a child who has ever suffered hardship. Someone who can afford two dollars a month to rent a house naturally doesn't want to live with others.
If she rents a bigger house, maybe more educated youth will come and her place will be crowded with people.
Only that yard best suits Lin Wanwan's personality.
really.
When the village head's wife walked to the gate of the courtyard, she heard voices coming from inside.
"This kitchen is half collapsed, and the toilet is unusable. When the work is done, I'll have some of my boys come over and help you fix it."
"My brother's family happens to have ready-made mud bricks. If you want to use them, you'll need to spend some money on the materials."
At this time, Accountant Qian was taking Lin Wanwan to check the condition of the house.
There are only two rooms in this courtyard, one bedroom and one for storing miscellaneous items.
The kitchen is a small separate room and the toilet is at the back of the house.
The house is not big and was originally occupied by two elderly people in the village.
Later, after the two old people passed away, this place became ownerless and was taken as collective property by the village.
The two rooms are not big, and the yard is not big either, but it is really comfortable for one or two people to live in.
"Lin Zhiqing, the kitchen has collapsed. When my boys get off work, I'll ask them to come and help."
"Build a small kitchen. With the help of your uncle Qian and I, we can rebuild it for you tonight."
The village chief's wife put the basket she was carrying on the only broken table in the house.
The broken table was wobbly, one of its legs was broken, and it was propped up by two large stones.
"Thank you, Uncle Qian and Auntie."
"What materials do you need? Uncle Qian, please help me find them. I'll settle the price later."
"It would be best if you could help fix the missing bricks in this wall. The gap is quite large. If someone wanted to get in, they could probably easily climb over the wall."
Lin Wanwan had already finished checking the condition of the house. Apart from the collapsed kitchen and toilet, it seemed that a lot of bricks on one wall had been pried away.
This leaves a large gap, and you can see clearly what's inside from the outside without having to stand on tiptoe.
The gap is so big that even a child can't stop it, let alone the idle men in the village.
Every village has a few scoundrels.
Lin Wanwan believed that there must be one in Yishui Village as well.
Otherwise, the village chief wouldn't have been so cautious.
"Okay, okay, I'll get it all done for you tonight!"
"But all the furniture in this house is gone. Do you need to buy some more?"
"There are a lot of furniture in our village's warehouse. They were all old furniture confiscated from landlords. Later, the inspection team didn't take all of them away, so some of them have been kept in the warehouse ever since."
"If you need one, you can go there and pick one out. The price is better than buying a new one, and the quality is not too bad."
No matter how big or small the events in the village are, they will definitely not escape the eyes of Accountant Qian.
He felt that as an educated youth, Lin Wanwan didn't need to buy new furniture for every piece. As long as the furniture was usable, it would be fine. It would be better to buy some old ones.
Doing this will not attract attention and will only benefit Lin Wanwan in the future in the village.
"Thank you very much, Uncle Qian. I do need a wardrobe, a bed, and a desk for my clothes, and I also need to buy a new table for dining."
"I can do the rest of the manual work myself, so I can do it myself when I have free time."
Lin Wanwan’s quick travel mission was not done in vain. She could make simple furniture by herself.
