Seeing her little daughter opening her arms and babbling for her to hold her, she pursed her lips, walked forward, and carefully took the child from Sun's hands, "Mom, let me hold you."
The little daughter looked like the original owner, with fair skin, big almond eyes, and pouty lips. She was so cute that she melted her heart.
Those people in the village who disliked the original owner, when they saw the two children, also liked to praise them.
Sun was happy to see Su Jinyan, but she was also trying to please him carefully. "Yanyan, are you leaving? I've warmed up the quilts and will put them in the car to cover you later."
Zhao Zhengjun and Sun both knew that the two of them were going to get their marriage certificate today. They were also very happy after hearing their son talk about Su Jinyan's plan.
They felt as if the bad luck had been cleared and the sun was shining.
I can finally hold my head up in the village and finally get rid of my anger.
Although it is hard to leave one's hometown, for the sake of my son and to show off in front of those people in the old house, what's the harm in letting them go to a place where they are unfamiliar with the place?
Sun said as she took out another dollar from her pocket, "Yanyan, take this money. When you get to town, you can have some hot noodles."
Although she said this, she felt embarrassed in her heart because she was asked to eat noodles but she didn't even have a food coupon.
Looking at the neatly pressed one dollar bill, Su Jinyan felt a little moved.
The old couple were so poor that they only had one meal a day, and they actually gave her one dollar when she went to town.
One dollar can buy more than ten kilograms of cornmeal!
"Mom, I have money."
As he spoke, he took out the fifty yuan in change and put in the twenty yuan in big unity. "Dad, Mom, we are leaving soon. We can't let people talk about us. This is the money Yuanyi gave me yesterday. And here are the twenty yuan. You should pay back the money owed to the villagers and the money Dad borrowed from others."
"That won't work, Yanyan, you're going to college, how can you be without money? What's more, Yuanyi also has to go to school now, we can pay this money back later."
Su Jinyan shook her head. The Zhao family had been an honest family all their lives and had a good reputation in the village. She couldn't let them leave a bad impression on the village before they left.
The villagers are having a hard time, they can't have money in their hands. If someone runs away with a roll of money, the villagers will worry whether they can still get the money back.
"I have money in my hand, don't worry."
"Dad, Mom, Yuan Yi has told you, are you willing to go to the capital with us?"
"You kid..." Sun said, raising her hand to rub the eye that couldn't see clearly, "As long as you and Yuan Yi can live well, Dad and Mom will do whatever you want. Dad and Mom will listen to your arrangements."
The old couple were very happy that their son could go to college, and naturally they were willing to go with him to see their grandson.
At this time, Zhao Yuanyi entered the room. Hearing what Sun said, he frowned and said unhappily, "Mom, what are you talking about?"
Sun said embarrassedly, "Yes, yes, mother doesn't know how to talk. Our Yanyan is kind, not like those educated youth who received the notice, patted their butts, and ran away, leaving their husbands, wives, and children behind."
In the past few days, several people in the team who received university admission letters have left. Among those who were married, some divorced directly before leaving, while others said with sweet words that they would go back and settle down first. There were many excuses, but none of them took their wives/husbands and children back with them.
"Mom, take this money. Return the money today and clean up the house. We'll go today and see if we can buy tickets for the day after tomorrow. I want to go back the day after tomorrow."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't worry. There aren't many things at home. Mom will pack them up properly today."
Although the family is so poor that they have nothing and even thieves despise them, when they really have to leave, they feel that everything they have is valuable.
"Mom and Dad, pack up your valuables and don't pack up the useless things. We won't need to farm or raise poultry when we go to the capital, so there's no point in bringing them with us."
How could someone who had been poor all his life be willing to abandon his home? But even though he felt bad, he still nodded happily.
As for the current house, it is the old house where the Zhao family used to live. It is very dilapidated and there is nothing to be nostalgic about.
This couple was truly kind to the original owner, but the original owner didn't cherish them. She would definitely be filial to them, and when she comes back again, she would make them live a glamorous life, making those people in the old house regret their existence and making the whole village envy them.
Su Jinyan teased his daughter and handed her to Sun.
She had poor breast milk supply, so both of her children were weaned at over six months old. Her youngest daughter is still drinking milk powder, which Zhao Yuanyi managed to buy.
Having read the book, she knew that Zhao Yuanyi worked three days and rested for two days. It was not because he was lazy, but because the few work points he had were not enough to support the elderly, the weak and the sick in his family, so he often went to the black market, trading things back and forth to make a profit.
This is also the reason why she can have millet porridge every day and white flour every now and then without spending a penny, and her son and daughter can drink milk powder.
Zhao Yuan spread the bedding on the ox cart, and Su Jinyan got into bed. Following the repeated instructions from her mother-in-law, Sun, the two of them rushed to the town.
Su Jinyan was not on good terms with the villagers, and Zhao Yuanyi didn't want his wife to suffer any grievances and listen to their gossip, so he walked through the edge of the village and didn't meet anyone on the way.
