Chapter 33 Lin Anan Asks for Help
Song Xiaoyue shook her head. "It's so hard to find a job now. Her injuries haven't healed yet. She lives in the kitchen at home. When it's hot, she can't stand the kitchen, so she sleeps on a wooden board under the eaves. Even beggars are not that miserable. She has to cook for the family during the day. Without a job, she can't leave the house and walk around. If she goes out like this, she will be regarded as a vagrant.
Her adoptive parents are already trying to find a partner for her and want a dowry, which is really lacking in virtue. ”
Huo Qingqing, "Didn't you find your biological parents?"
Song Xiaoyue, "This is what makes me angry. After I tricked her into withdrawing the lawsuit and asked for money, she denied it when she returned to the city, saying that she was picked up from the garbage dump and she didn't know who her parents were. That's not what she said at the beginning. She said her parents were rich!"
"What should we do then?" Huo Qingqing thought of something and said, "Does Liang Jianhui like An An?"
Song Xiaoyue, "Yes, but An An doesn't like him! Besides, Liang Jianhui can't help her. They are just ordinary people. When things are going well, they can still have a relationship to relieve the loneliness here, but when things are bad, the first thing they think of is self-protection."
Huo Qingqing sighed and said, "In the end, it was me who harmed her."
Song Xiaoyue patted Huo Qingqing's hand and said, "Don't think like that. We are friends who support each other. It's not wrong for her to do so. It's just that no one expected that there would be so many things to happen later.
By the way, An An also told you to keep a close eye on Liu Chunyan. At that time, the Gao family should have forced Liu Chunyan to sign an IOU. ”
Huo Qingqing, "There's still this matter? What IOU?"
Song Xiaoyue, "An An didn't elaborate. See if she will elaborate on this matter in her letter to you later. Maybe she doesn't know the details. After all, she was still injured at the time! The matter with the Gao family was handled by her adoptive parents."
Song Xiaoyue gave each of the two kids a piece of candy. Huo Qingqing said, "That's enough. They have food! I've also prepared something for you! Wait for me to get it for you."
A bag of sugar, a bag of peanuts and a bag of tea. "When the weather is hot, drink some every day to replenish sugar and refresh yourself. Eat the peanuts as a snack!"
Song Xiaoyue took it and said, "Then I won't be polite!"
"Why are you being so polite to me?"
After taking a few puffs of the milk, Song Xiaoyue ran out, "I'm leaving. If I'm late, the team leader will scold me again."
Although Huo Qingqing was very unwilling that Gao Yunxia and Liu Chunyan were not sent to jail for this incident, she also felt guilty towards Lin Anan. If this hadn't happened, she wouldn't have been treated like this by her adoptive parents.
Lin Anan has been in Hanjiagou for four or five years! None of her family members ever came to see her, nor did they write to her to send her money or food coupons. She had to rely on her to work hard every month to earn work points to support herself. That’s why she often can’t get through, and it’s Huo Qingqing and Song Xiaoyue who help her. But it’s better than being at home, right?
After seeing Song Xiaoyue off, Huo Qingqing opened Lin Anan's letter.
The first thing Lin Anan said to Huo Qingqing was sorry. After blaming herself for a while, she said that she wanted to go back to Hanjiagou because her life at home was worse than that of pigs and dogs. The control in the city is stricter than in the countryside. Now she has no job and her injury has not healed yet. Her family won't give her money to buy medicine. The Gao family didn't give her a penny of the compensation or food coupons. They are now plotting to find her a husband and collect a dowry. She overheard it and they wanted to marry her to the stupid son of a big shot.
Huo Qingqing wrote back to Lin Anan immediately, saying that the food supply would definitely not come back once it was transferred. The educated youth also had their own rules and regulations. How could they come and go as they pleased?
Lin Anan's adoptive parents are teachers. Huo Qingqing asked her to find a chance to complain to the Education Bureau about them. It is amazing that teachers can do such a thing worse than pigs and dogs. If she really can't make a scene in the yard, let the neighbors hear it. She should first protect herself from being sold by them and wait for her news.
Huo Qingqing thought about waiting for her mother and elder brother to come and telling them the whole story. Her mother and elder brother should be able to help An An, as this was what she owed Lin An An.
In her letter to Huo Qingqing, Lin Anan also mentioned that the Gao family forced Liu Chunyan to sign an IOU, but she was not sure how much money was signed.
Huo Qingqing closed her eyes feeling very sad. In her previous life, Lin Anan was the last group of educated youth from Hanjiagou to return to the city. No one in her family cared about her life or death, and she did not get into university in the college entrance examination. She did not return until the educated youth were completely withdrawn in 1977 or 1988. Gao Yunxia was also among the last group to return to the city. She failed the college entrance examination several times. After returning to the city, she and Zhang Guohua found a job for her.
Niu Niu disappeared after the Spring Festival in 1977 or 1978.
Huo Qingqing suddenly felt a pain in her heart as if she was suffocating. She raised her hand to cover her chest. After a long while, she realized that the two children were not around and were quiet. She shouted, "Zhuangzhuang? Niuniu?"
Zhuangzhuang replied from the vegetable garden, "Mom, I'm pooping~"
"Where's your sister?"
"Mom, I'm watching ants moving!" Niu Niu was squatting under the gable of her third aunt's house watching the ants!
Huo Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest. She was so scared. It was the peak working time and some people were still carrying water back! The door was open and the child would run out if we were not careful.
Gao Yunxia is no longer here, but she cannot let her guard down, as the future is unknown. The tragedy of Niu Niu and Han Jianwu must be prevented from happening, otherwise what’s the point of rebirth?
At this moment, she looked at the two children with tears in her eyes. She had to find a way to rescue An An. Although Gao Yunxia was not sent to jail, it was a good thing to let her leave Hanjiagou and keep a criminal record. But Lin An An should not have to pay this price.
There is no such thing as easy gain without hard work in this world, including fighting against evil people, there must be a price to pay for winning.
Song Xiaoyue still had something to say to Huo Qingqing. She felt that An An might never see Huo Qingqing and Han Jianwu again in this life, so there was no need to talk about it. Song Xiaoyue, Gao Yunxia, Lin Anan, Zhang Guohua and others all arrived earlier than Huo Qingqing. Song Xiaoyue has the best relationship with Lin Anan. She understands Lin Anan and she likes Han Jianwu. This is their secret.
At that time, Han Jianwu pursued Huo Qingqing with great fanfare and arranged a job for her. Lin Anan was jealous of Huo Qingqing at that time, but later she envied her more.
The female educated youth laughed at Huo Qingqing for marrying a farmer, and only Lin Anan confronted those who made fun of Huo Qingqing.
Huo Qingqing plans to divorce and return to the city with Zhang Guohua. Lin Anan kind of hopes that she will leave. If she leaves, she can take care of the two children as a good friend. She didn't have to go into the woods that afternoon. She was most afraid of snakes and the like. She was not obligated to listen to Huo Qingqing and help her monitor Gao Yunxia, but she wanted to protect Huo Qingqing, the two children, and the man more.
The next day, Huo Qingqing asked Han Jianwu to go to the commune to send Lin Anan's express letter for her. She was worried that her letter would be late and Anan would be sold by her adoptive parents.
