Wu Yunhua stammered as she explained that she did not mean to criticize.
Normally, Old Lady Lin would have kept nagging her, but with a letter from the Five Star Production Brigade in her hand, she didn't have time to waste.
She wanted to see what was written inside. Could it be that her granddaughter, whom she had never met, wanted to come and live in the capital?
If that's the case, Old Lady Lin will be the first to object.
Grandma Lin took the envelope and walked into the room. As soon as the door closed, she eagerly opened the letter, and the more she read, the more her brows furrowed.
So they came to ask for money!
Education costs money, clothes cost money, medical expenses cost money—all sorts of things that require money pile up at once!
In a rural area, five yuan a month is more than enough to live comfortably. Why would they need money? Could it be that the Yu family is using the child as an excuse to swindle money from her?
Grandma Lin didn't want to give any money at all. She felt that five yuan was already more than enough, and giving fifteen yuan every month was a waste and a sin.
But the letter ended by saying that if the money wasn't received next month, the child would come to the capital…
This is a threat!
Grandma Lin didn't know who wrote the letter, but that didn't stop her from feeling even more disgusted with her granddaughter, whom she had never met!
Grandma Lin wanted to give the letter to Si.
After dinner.
Grandma Lin took out the letter she had read earlier and gave it to her son, smiling kindly: "Qianqian has grown up. She even knows to send letters to her father now. Sigh, I wonder if the Yu family treats her well. This is the first letter she's ever sent, and she's asking for money. I don't think Qianqian would be so insensible! A-Jia, do you know anything about the Yu family? Could this letter be entirely from their side of the story?"
“Ah, it’s not that I don’t want to send more money over there. No matter what, the most important thing is that the children are doing well. But there’s a limit to everything. If this happens once, it will happen again. We can’t encourage this kind of arrogance, don’t you think?”
Shen Jia hadn't spoken yet; he was reading the letter carefully.
The handwriting on the letter was beautiful; she must have practiced it specially. Shen Jia couldn't help but be genuinely pleased that his daughter could write such beautiful characters.
Due to work, he didn't pay much attention to his family. After his youngest daughter was diagnosed with an illness, he also hoped to have a child who could succeed.
After appreciating the calligraphy, Shen Jia continued browsing the following content.
I haven't seen my father for thirteen years, but I still miss him and admire him. You are a hero of the people and my hero. I hope you, your grandmother, aunt, and sister are in good health.
A while ago, while passing by a small river, I rescued the brigade leader's granddaughter, but unfortunately fell into the water myself. She was sick for several days, and most of my money went to medical expenses. I'm now short of funds and can't afford several books, including titles like "xxx" and "xxx"...
The school's mock exam results came out, and the teacher said my grades were excellent. Unfortunately, I didn't receive the exam paper when I sent this letter. I'll definitely show it to you when I have the chance; I hope I can make you proud.
The child is sensible. This brings comfort to Chen Jia's heart.
When Grandma Lin saw her son's beaming face, her heart tightened.
Shen Jia looked at Old Lady Lin
"Mom, Qianqian is a good student, so her expenses are naturally high. There are many people in the Yu family, so they can't take care of Qianqian often. But she doesn't complain. Since she's not around, the only way I can make up for it is with money. I'll send more things over next month."
Grandma Lin could barely keep up her smile.
I wanted to show you this child—she's greedy, extravagant, and a liar—and you said she was good, and even asked me to send her more things?
Old Mrs. Lin nodded with tears in her eyes. She dared not act presumptuously in front of her son.
Shen Qianqian estimated that the letter should be arriving in the capital soon. She made some necessary artistic adjustments to the letter.
When she sent the letter, she hadn't yet started attending the commune middle school, but her student registration was already underway.
Things that are set in stone should be written down.
At that time, she hadn't taken any formal exams. She just copied Yu Linyang's exam paper and did it herself. She also graded the score herself, but the fact is that she got a high score, so I'll write it down.
And she did indeed save Lin Hong. Although she was perfectly healthy and not sick, the fact remains that she saved someone. I'll write it down.
Shen Qianqian also wrote a warning at the end of the letter: no matter who reads the letter or what they want to do, if they damage this letter, she will buy a ticket and go to the capital to find them in no time.
Shen Jia was a responsible person to the country, but he was immoral to his family.
After all, who would leave their child with a complete stranger in the home of a fellow villager for thirteen years? These parents must be a bit crazy.
Sigh. I really want to have my own car.
Shen Qianqian lay on the bed, eating biscuits, the aroma of scallions filling her mouth.
She took advantage of the weekend to go to the county to remove the bandages, and then went to the county middle school to squat down in the woods.
Sen.
Nanxian County has three middle schools: No. 1 Middle School, No. 2 Middle School, and No. 3 Middle School. Among them, No. 1 Middle School is a key middle school, which is the middle school that Yu Linsen attended.
Most students get into this school based on their actual abilities. Yu Linsen's grades were indeed quite good in the first two years. After all, those who can get into this middle school must have some talent. However, after repeating the year for two years, he has changed a lot.
Yu Linsen received more and more living expenses from Grandma Fang, and lived a more and more extravagant life. He was far away from his family and unrestrained. His family still spoiled him. It would be strange if he didn't go astray.
Shen Qianqian hummed out-of-tune music. She saw Yu Linsen and a few hooligans hanging out at the county's No. 1 Middle School. She followed them all the way, watching them smoke, drink, and finally play ball and billiards.
At that time, it was a novelty for a small county town to have such a thing.
Shen Qianqian wanted to go inside and take a look, but it turned out that inside, there was something resembling a 21st-century meeting place.
The staff-based system, when you ask the price, it's ten yuan a quarter, which is shocking.
She held leverage over Yu Linsen and was just waiting for him to come back next time to collect his living expenses. "Qianqian?"
A soft voice came from outside the door.
Shen Qianqian sat up, opened the door, and saw her older cousin Yu Linxiu standing outside, holding two fruits on her phone, which she handed directly to her.
Shen Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then, after receiving a wink from Yu Linxiu, she turned around, put the fruit in the room, and went out.
"Big cousin, why are you back?"
Shen Qianqian knew that Yu Linxiu was quite busy with her work at the supply and marketing cooperative.
A blush crept onto Yu Linxiu's fair face, mixed with embarrassment and awkwardness.
Shen Qianqian didn't understand. What was there to be embarrassed about? Did the supply and marketing cooperative fire people?
Alright?
Yu Linxiu: "I was busy with work for the past few days, so I took five days off this time. My family told me to go see someone."
See someone?
Shen Qianqian suddenly realized. A blind date?
Wow, that's so fast! Yu Linxiu is only two years older than her, and she's already going on blind dates?!
Shen Qianqian inwardly scorned Yu Jianshan and his wife, then asked, "Who is the man?"
Yu Linxiu didn't actually know much about her.
"Mom said he was from the county and his name was Xu Guangzong."
