The fellow villager was Li Dani’s father, Old Man Li.
Old man Li thought that since the two spies had been tied up, it was very safe. If the whole family stayed at home and didn't go out, it would attract attention.
After thinking it over, the whole family decided to go out to work, leaving only the little daughter at home to cook.
The youngest daughter is Li Dani, who is still unmarried.
Who would have thought that the official was so quick? The next day, while the villagers were working in the fields, he sent people to pick up the two spies who were tied up tightly.
Before leaving, he left a note for Li Dani, telling her not to tell anyone.
Coincidentally, no one in the Li family had ever been to school, and it was difficult for them to recognize a few simple characters.
The stall was even more chaotic. The family kept pondering the note and wanted to find someone to check it out.
They were also afraid that the information would be leaked and cause fatal disaster, so the man told them not to make it public.
The note was hidden.
After a while, a school was established in the village, and the little boy from Old Li's family went to school. When he came back, he found the note from somewhere and read it out loud from the book word by word.
Old Li couldn't sit still anymore.
The note clearly stated that Li Dani should take the note to the village within two days and someone would arrange a job for her.
Working in the countryside is a stable job.
Old man Li hurriedly took the note to the township. The township officials looked constipated. There was only one position for each person. Li Dani wanted to suddenly intervene, but no one was happy. So she used the fact that the time limit had passed to trick Old Li back.
I asked you to come within two days to arrange a job for you, but you waited so long to come. What have you been doing for so long?
The Li family lost out on a stable job because one of their members was illiterate.
Since then, Old Man Li established an unwritten family rule: all descendants of the Li family must learn to read.
Li Dani even regarded this family rule as an imperial decree, and all her four sons were educated.
The eldest graduated from junior high school.
The second child was not as educated as the eldest, but he managed to graduate from elementary school, so at least he was not blind.
The third child could not read and failed to get promoted to the second grade after four years of study. In the end, he had to go home to do farm work.
The fourth child also graduated from junior high school. He could read, but his family was so poor at that time that they could not afford to support him, so they could only use their connections in the team to send him to the army. Later, I heard from the fourth child that there were teachers in the army who specialized in teaching soldiers.
Li Dani thought, the fourth child’s current cultural level is not much different from that of a high school student, right?
Her biggest regret was that in the era of earning work points, in order to make life more comfortable for her family, she found hard-working but uneducated wives for her three eldest sons.
The schools in several nearby communes have been demolished and the teachers are gone. Would her grandchildren become blind?
I wanted to let Boss Pei give the kids literacy lessons, but who knew that Boss Pei, that simple guy, would give back everything he had learned to the teacher as soon as he left the classroom.
Li Dani's anger rose again.
Anyway, there are enough people working at home, and the fourth son's wife must not find another strong person.
He took the opportunity to set his sights on the female educated youth at the educated youth point and began to pick and choose among them.
This won’t work. She’s just graduated from junior high school. What if she’s the same as the eldest brother? What’s the point of marrying her?
After choosing for a long time, she felt a headache. Among those educated youth who went to the countryside from the city, not even one had graduated from high school, and she didn't like any of them.
Until Ruan Niannian and Chen Panpan, a group of educated youth, went to the countryside.
Li Dani has a relatively good relationship with Chen Panpan. Chen Panpan is good at coaxing people, and often uses words and idioms that are not heard in normal times. She believes that Chen Panpan is cultured.
Unexpectedly, although Chen Panpan went to high school, she did not have a high school diploma, so she suddenly didn't want it anymore.
Little did she know that things would take such an unexpected turn. Chen Panpan actually introduced her to Ruan Niannian, a real high school graduate. It was said that she had written articles for newspapers before and was a top talent in their school.
But the girl was very weak. During the two months she was in the countryside, she had to take sick leave so many times that she couldn't count it on the fingers of her two hands.
Li Dani specially observed her for a period of time and found that she didn't have any serious illness, she just had a delicate body.
It’s good to be pampered. Which scholar is not pampered?
There are enough laborers in their family. As long as Ruan Niannian can teach, she can make the decision to stop Ruan Niannian from going to the fields!
Knowing all this, Mrs. Pei believed Ruan Niannian's words without a doubt. She wanted to soften her tone and say a few nice words, but her words changed in tone when they came to her lips.
"Who knows how much truth there is in your diploma? Who can I blame if it corrupts my child?"
She regretted it after she said it and glanced at Ruan Niannian with the side of her eyes.
Ruan Niannian smiled and said confidently, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I can't teach you bad things. If you don't believe me, go ask someone and look for the Gan Province Daily from a few years ago. There are many articles written and published by me."
Is this true?
Sister Pei was shocked, but she was unforgiving, "Even if it's true, I'm not your sister-in-law yet. You and my fourth son haven't gotten married or held a wedding, so it doesn't count."
Although Pei Yuanzheng promised Ruan Niannian that he would, he has not come back after all. During this period of time, Ruan Niannian still has a lot of hardships to face alone.
In her previous life, Chen Panpan brought people to make a big fuss, and after that they advised her to stay in the Pei family, lest the Pei family turn against her and she lose her virginity in vain.
At that time, she obeyed Chen Panpan's orders without any backbone, so she naturally lived in Pei's family and endured a lot of contempt from Pei's sisters-in-law.
This time, she could no longer live in the Pei family.
No matter what, she had to go back to the educated youth point and get back everything that Chen Panpan owed her.
Fortunately, Chen Panpan used to be proud of herself and used the fact that "Ruan Niannian listened to her in everything" as a capital to show off. When she went to "borrow money" from Ruan Niannian, she never avoided other people in the educated youth point.
But she never paid back the money she borrowed.
They had been in the countryside for nearly three months, and Chen Panpan had repeatedly asked her for money in front of many people at the educated youth site. She could not deny this.
While Ruan Niannian was thinking about going back to ask Chen Panpan for money, she responded to Mrs. Pei.
"Of course I have to go back to the educated youth camp. Brother Yuanzheng said that he will come back to marry me within a month, and we will definitely get the marriage certificate and hold a wedding banquet by then."
She paused, then pretended to be innocent and said, "Sister-in-law, don't think that I am eager to marry into the Pei family because I think the conditions are good. My parents are very good to me and send me a lot of money every month. When I go back to the educated youth camp to find Chen Panpan and ask her to return the money she lent me, I don't need you to support me."
Go ahead and explode, she didn’t believe that Mrs. Pei would not explode after being provoked by these words.
Even if it's not her money, it belongs to her sister-in-law. They haven't divided up yet, so it's theirs if you round it up. Even if she can't spend it, her son and daughter can't get any benefit from it, right?
Mrs. Pei really wanted to explode.
But it didn't explode.
Li Dani got there first.
"What? That bastard lent you money? How much did he borrow? Oh, you loser!"
Li Dani was heartbroken.
