Chapter 66: Reselling Hong Kong Goods



Lin Chaoyang scratched his head. If that was the case, this matter would be difficult to handle.

Even though 놛 and Lin Zhaoxia separated, they would not interact often in the future.

If this family was attracted by the identity of the future uncle, then there would be no point in marrying Lin Zhaoxia.

However, if this fact is concealed and Lin Zhaoxia is married to him, it would seem like an act of deception.

After all, Second Aunt's family still has to make a living in the No. 1 production team, so we shouldn't cheat them like this.

Thinking of this, Lin Chaoyang decided to make things clear.

"You all know almost everything about our family's situation, but there is one thing I need to explain clearly."

The guy's mother, Aunt Yufen, was very nice to Lin Chaoyang and quickly signaled him to go ahead and talk.

Lin Chaoyang also smiled at her and started talking in a very polite manner.

"I'm studying in Guangzhou, as you all know. I'll stay there after I graduate."

"We don't live in the same house anymore. After Xiaoxia gets married, we will definitely interact less and less."

"As the eldest brother, I won't be able to take care of her in the future. I still hope that her in-laws will treat her with some care."

Lin Chaoyang spoke very tactfully, but everyone present understood what 놛 meant.

Aunt Yufen blinked, and her enthusiasm faded a little.

Our family's conditions are very good. In comparison, Lin Zhaoxia's conditions are much worse.

If her eldest brother wasn't a college student, they wouldn't be in such a hurry.

But her eldest brother meant that after she got married, he would no longer care about her.

What if the eldest brother doesn't care at all and the family doesn't benefit from it at all, then wouldn't it be a waste to marry this daughter-in-law?

The college students are in Guangzhou, where the mountains are high and the roads are long. If they don't come back, there is really no hope for them.

Aunt Yufen thought about it and decided that it would be better not to discuss this marriage as it was not appropriate.

The first meeting ended in nothing. Lin Zhaoxia remained silent and went back without saying a word.

The second aunt was a little melancholy. She wanted to find a good family for Lin Zhaoxia, but the family came for the college student.

If I tell the truth, the other party will be unhappy. But if I don't tell them, it would be too unfair and make it difficult for my family, the introducer, to live a good life.

"Second Aunt, I think it's better to be pragmatic. As long as the person is down-to-earth and hardworking, it's fine. If the family conditions are too good, I won't look down on them."

Second Aunt also thinks this is the truth. Just like this family just now, it is obvious that they want to take advantage of their brother-in-law in the future.

Several days later, there was another letter from Aunt Hongmei.

This time, she found a guy from her mother's family named Chen Song.

Chen Song and Lin Zhaoxia were in similar circumstances, and their parents also passed away early.

I used to have a grandfather, but he passed away two years ago, and I'm now all alone.

Although the family conditions were relatively poor, he was indeed hardworking and earned full work points every day.

Not only did he get high work points, he also raised a flock of chickens and lived a pretty good life.

Lin Chaoyang thought this guy was good and he sounded reliable.

Second Aunt was also very satisfied. After she got married, she wouldn't have to support her parents-in-law, and the two of them could just live a good life.

Aunt Hongmei brought someone over again, and this time, they were able to meet each other.

But there is a problem, should Lin Chaoyu marry Lin Chaoxia or stay here?

Chen Song was a very generous man. He immediately expressed his willingness to take his uncle over to spend the day with him.

On the contrary, my uncle also worked to earn work points, so he was not completely dependent on others for support.

The more people there are in the family, the more lively it will be, so that Lin Zhaoxia won't have to marry someone she doesn't know and have no one to keep her company.

Seeing that this future nephew-in-law was so reasonable, the second uncle and aunt were even more satisfied.

The two families discussed it and since there were no experienced elders on either side, they decided to keep the wedding simple and hold it after the autumn harvest this year.

Lin Chaoyang was actually quite impressed by the speed of marriages in rural areas in this era.

A man and a woman who just met have already decided when to get married.

According to my uncles and aunts, after getting married, as you live your life together, you will naturally develop feelings for each other.

Lin Chaoxia's marriage was settled, and after the autumn harvest, she became someone else's daughter-in-law.

Lin Chaoyang couldn't make it to her wedding in time, so before leaving for summer vacation, he gave her five dollars as a dowry gift.

This could not help but remind Lin Chaoyang of the time when his elder brother Lin Zhaoxia got married.

In her previous life, Lin Zhaoxia did not marry Chen Song, but a man she chose.

In order to collect the dowry for her, the eldest brother helped others carry heavy bags to earn money.

At that time, I saved for a long time and finally saved up five dollars.

It’s the same five dollars, but it gives you a completely different feeling.

Now, for Lin Chaoyang, five dollars is nothing.

I took out five dollars, mostly out of consideration for the fact that Lin Zhaoxia had sincerely apologized to me in her lifetime.

"When you get married, live your life well with your partner and stop thinking about the bad things in the past."

Lin Chaoyang had nothing to wish her, so he left after leaving these words.

Lin Chaoxia held the five dollars in her hand and looked at Lin Chaoyang's back as he left, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

She thought of her eldest brother when she was little, and also of the ridiculous things she had done following her second sister.

In the end, she laughed at herself and thought that the five dollars was the last kindness her elder brother showed her.

Lin Zhaoxia turned back to the house, hid the money in the box, and locked it deep in the cabinet.

Lin Chaoyang's summer vacation was over, and he returned to Yangcheng with Lin Chaoxing.

At the beginning of this semester, the teacher told us that everyone should have a radio to listen to English.

If the financial pressure is great, you can buy one together in a dormitory and listen to it together.

But for day students like Lin Chaoyang, there is no other way, he has to buy one for himself.

As soon as the get out of class was over, Xia Shuya came over.

"I know a place that sells radios for very cheap, no tickets required, would you like to go buy one together?"

It is already 1978, and the policy has been relaxed a lot, so people are less likely to be caught for private transactions.

Lin Chaoyang was planning to find those people who resold radios. Since Xia Shuya had connections, he just followed her.

After school at noon, the two rode Xia Shuya's bicycle out of the school.

The place where radios were sold that Xia Shuya mentioned was not too far from the school. It only took about 20 minutes to get there by bike.

It's not quite accurate to say that this is a place that sells radios; it's really more like a small market.

"Many of the things here are from Hong Kong, smuggled in, so they are cheaper."

Xia Shuya is very familiar with this place, and it can be seen that she comes here frequently.

Lin Chaoyang's heart moved, and he pretended to know nothing and started to inquire.

"Ship it secretly from Hong Kong? Won't you get caught if you sell this kind of stuff?"

Xia Shuya was happy, "You guys must have your own channels. As long as they don't get caught when transporting them here, there will be no problem selling them here."
