Chapter 75 Reading Problem Solved
Gao Yuan couldn't help nodding, "Indeed, it's surrounded by mountains and water, with only one entrance and exit. Once the gate is closed, farming, raising chickens and ducks, life is too comfortable!"
The two women praised Nanyu highly.
He didn't stop until he walked up the stairs into the yard and saw Lin Yi and others.
Chen Wenjun stepped forward and introduced: "Aqin, Dad, this is Comrade Shen from the police station, and these two are his relatives."
Lin Yi looked confused.
Shen Yunfeng sat down on a bench in the yard and explained, "My brother-in-law was beaten and seriously injured. Fortunately, Comrade Chen Wenjun found him in time and saved his life. I brought my mother-in-law and my wife here today to thank Comrade Chen Wenjun."
Lin Yi suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. Hurry up and sit down. I'll go get you some water. The house at home has just been cleaned up, it's a mess."
When Lin Yi mentioned the house, he looked very proud, and his intention to show off was too obvious.
Zhao Dongling understood immediately, "It's not easy to build such a large two-story building!"
Lin Yi grinned and pretended to be modest. "It's OK. We started building it this spring and it's done now. I think this house is pretty good, but my daughter insisted on renovating it. She also said that she wanted to paint the walls of the second floor first and lay the bricks. I think they are just messing around."
Zhao Dongling took a look and said thoughtfully, "It's rare to build a two-story house. If you have money, you can renovate it. You will feel comfortable living in it. I think you are lucky. Both your son-in-law and daughter are so capable!"
Before they came, they had already investigated Chen Wenjun's background thoroughly. They knew that he had remarried with a disabled son, that he and his wife were working hard to make money to build a house, and what he needed now.
Chen Wenjun and Lin Qin were both embarrassed by the praise.
Chen Wenjun changed the subject and asked about Gao Lei's situation.
Zhao Dongling sighed, and looked at Chen Wenjun with eyes full of gratitude, almost crying, "I fainted at home just after receiving the news that day, and when I woke up I was already in the hospital, and Alei was still undergoing surgery, and it wasn't until the next day that his condition stabilized.
The doctor said that it was fortunate that the patient was sent to the hospital in time. If it had been delayed by an hour or two, there would have been irreparable injuries. If it had been delayed by another four hours, he would have died.
Although I have two sons, this one is my late-born son, my lifeblood! If anything happens to him, I don’t want to live anymore. If you save his life, you save mine too!"
"No, no, no, it's not that serious! It's just a simple thing, anyone else would help you too." Chen Wenjun was so frightened that his calves were shaking, and he felt a little guilty.
Chen Yunfeng shook his head seriously, "I have investigated. When the villagers of Anshanshe found out that he was not from their village, they did not want to intervene. It was you two who got A Lei onto the road. If it weren't for you, the consequences would be unimaginable.
I heard you are looking for schools for your two children?"
Chen Wenjun nodded, "Yes, I have this plan. My two children are both old enough to go to school this year, but we are Tanka people, and schools don't like to accept Tanka children. My son was born with limb problems, so the school has even more excuses not to let him go to school."
"What's the problem with the child?" Zhao Dongling asked with concern.
Lin Qin's heart skipped a beat, and she hurried into the house to lead Chen Pingan out, "Ping'an, take two steps for the grandma and uncle and aunt, and make two gestures with your hands."
Chen Pingan was afraid of strangers and only performed a few actions with Lin Qin's encouragement.
Lin Qin explained: "The child's left limbs are not flexible. When he walks, one foot is lighter than the other. It's quite obvious. Fortunately, the right limbs are not affected. There will be no problem with reading and writing. The child has normal intelligence and there will be no problem with going to school."
Zhao Dongling knew that Lin Qin was a stepmother, and was somewhat surprised to see the mother and son being so close, but she did not show it.
Gao Yuan, who was standing by, said seriously, "It seems that the child does have some physical problems, but it does not affect his schooling. The school cannot refuse to accept the child on this basis. According to the classification, which school are you attending?"
"Anshanshe Primary School." Lin Qin said anxiously.
Gao Yuan nodded and said, "I'll go tell the principal of Anshanshe Primary School and you can bring your children there to register on September 1st."
Lin Qin was overjoyed and quickly brought the two children over, "Hurry up and thank Auntie."
The two children hugged each other excitedly and shouted crisply, "Thank you, Auntie."
The adults were happy to see their excited look.
In order to thank them, Lin Qin insisted on keeping them at home and cooking.
Zhao Dongling refused to agree no matter what, and even quoted the Chairman's quotations, such as not taking a single needle or thread from the people.
In the end, the couple never said anything to Zhao Dongling and could only watch them walk out.
Chen Wenjun rowed the boat to take them ashore and then followed them.
When a person leaves.
Lin Qin closed the door and ran home excitedly, holding the two children in her arms and shouting and jumping with excitement, "Great! You can finally go to school. I will take you to the city tomorrow. Ping An's hair will need to be cut again, and I will also buy you two school bags, pencils and notebooks."
Lin Qin counted carefully and found that there were quite a few things to buy. The money she had just saved had to be used to buy things for the children first, and she would have to wait a few more days to pay back the money.
Lin Yi listened silently and said with a smile: "It's just right that we can harvest some vegetables grown in the fields. In addition to sending them to the construction site, we can also sell some. We can save some money and get it out."
Now he is full of energy and can't wait to pick up a hoe and open up two more acres of land.
Lin Qin looked at Lin Yi's vegetable garden, which was about two acres in size, not small, and planted with various vegetables. It was ok for his own consumption and for Huang Wenlong's cooking, but it was obviously not good enough to sell.
"Dad! How about we dig two more acres of paddy fields to plant lotus roots." Lin Qin looked at the large piece of land next to the rice field and felt itchy.
Xialin Village, next to Shanglin Village, grows lotus roots. She would envy them every May when they dug lotus roots.
Lotus roots are more expensive than ordinary vegetables, but the harvest is also good. You can also raise loaches and eels in the lotus fields, so you can make money no matter how you do it. The only problem is that the lotus roots must be planted in the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, so if you want to plant them, you have to open up the paddy fields now.
Lin Yi's eyes lit up immediately, "This is a good idea. Planting lotus roots is more cost-effective than planting other vegetables. The important thing is that you have no shortage of land here. You can plant as many acres as you want. I think you can plant seven or eight acres instead of two acres. You can also send them to the port by cargo ship and sell them. You are guaranteed to make money."
He had been living in Shanglin Village before and knew nothing about water transportation. After living with Chen Wenjun for a few months, he also figured out how the Tanka people made money.
He said that although the Tanka people were discriminated against, their lives were not necessarily worse than those of the farmers. At least they had more ways to make money. As long as they had some strength, they would never starve to death. If they were diligent, they could save money to marry a wife.
