While the three men were talking, they took the fish out of the basket and put them back into a large basin to keep them, waiting to load them onto a truck and send them to the Education Bureau the next morning.
Just then, footsteps were heard behind me.
Jiang Wanyue turned around, and when she saw that Lin Jin looked unhappy, she realized that something was wrong.
"I went to the commune yesterday and waited for a whole day, but I didn't see the person in charge." Lin Jin looked frustrated. "I went to wait again this morning, but I didn't see the driver until noon. I asked him, but he couldn't say anything, so I continued to wait. I finally saw the secretary. I tried every way to talk to him. The secretary said... there will be a group of soldiers returning home tomorrow, and we need to drive a tractor to pick them up..."
What I mean is, I didn’t borrow it.
Jiang Wanyue held her forehead with her hand.
After catching the fish, you still have to think about transportation. It’s really difficult in this era.
"But..." Lin Jin changed the subject, "I shamelessly asked the secretary to borrow a bicycle. I knew one bicycle would not be enough, so I asked all the cadres in the commune one by one. At least I borrowed a second one. If you think it's not enough, I can't do anything about it."
"Sure, of course!" Principal Zheng was very grateful. "Isn't riding a bicycle more low-key than a tractor?"
Jiang Wanyue: “…”
Wouldn't it take four or five hours to ride a bicycle?
Oh my God, isn't this more torturous than fishing in the water?
Lin Jin said very considerately: "Wanyue, you seldom go out, so you definitely can't ride that far on a bicycle. Why don't I go with Principal Zheng?"
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for lending me the bicycle." Jiang Wanyue forced a smile. "Once the bill is settled, the school will pay you the compensation for the two days of lost work."
Lin Jin also laughed: "You and Principal Zheng are going to the county, and there are several classes that have no one to take care of, so let me take over as a substitute."
She had inquired around and found out that other schools had four or five teachers, but Xiaojing Team only had three. If she started to substitute for classes, she would eventually become a full-time teacher.
But Teacher Wan didn't give her a chance and said calmly, "With me here at school, there won't be any trouble. Principal and Teacher Jiang can just go and deliver the fish without any worries."
Lin Jin was furious.
In other words, she shamelessly asked to lend the bicycle, but got nothing in return.
