Chapter 980 Heading North
Lu Miao said he was taking Minmin to work in the factory because he had no other choice and wanted to confuse He Hongjin.
Lu Miao has some other ideas about Minmin.
But when Lu Miao mentioned this to Tian Guihua, he did have the idea of arranging her to live in the factory yard.
The work in the yard was not difficult, and Tian Guihua was very skillful.
Lu Miao thought about it and made a promise.
As long as Tian Guihua goes, the monthly salary will be at least 60 yuan.
When you become more proficient and increase your speed, you can earn more.
If a rural resident is over 16 years old and wants to work in the city, he or she must apply for a temporary residence permit and other documents.
It sounds simple, but the actual process requires running around to various departments and providing guarantees, which is actually quite troublesome.
The most important thing is that there is a certain risk of involvement.
Even if others ask for help, Lu Miao may not necessarily agree.
But if it is one of our own, then it will definitely be a different situation.
A monthly salary of sixty yuan is something that no one in the village would dare to even think about.
But since Lu Miao said it, Tian Guihua believed it.
If for no other reason than the things Lu Miao brought back during the Chinese New Year.
If she hadn't made a lot of money in the city, how could she have bought those things?
Of course Tian Guihua was also moved.
But how to say it?
It is probably really difficult for people to earn money beyond their knowledge and experience.
If Lu Miao needs help, Tian Guihua can go over and help out briefly.
Tian Guihua didn't dare to really go to Beijing to work.
I don’t dare to go that far.
I dare not be so far away from my husband and children...
Tian Guihua knew that Lu Miao was trying to help her, and she was very grateful.
But he suppressed the throbbing in his heart and shook his head:
"I know you mean well, but I won't go... Minjie goes to school in the countryside, and I'm just at home to take care of him. And then there's Mom and Dad. You and Xiaoliu used to take care of them, but now you're both away, and they're old, so they need someone to keep an eye on them."
That being said, it is indeed true.
Lu Miao nodded, and had to stop talking, then said with a smile:
"I've seen Min Jie's homework, and he's got 100 points in every one. He's a very smart kid. It would be nice if you could stay with him and study with him... If he needs anything later, feel free to write to us. The conditions in the city are better, and you can buy most things there."
"Um."
Tian Guihua nodded with a genuine smile.
Let’s talk about the He family’s division.
There have actually been many incidents in the past few years, but this time the household registrations have been actually separated and everyone has settled down separately, so from now on they will truly be three families.
Brother He knew that he would get nothing from the division of the family property, so he left on the same day after getting his own household registration book.
He Hongjin divided the household items with his second brother He.
It’s nothing actually.
He Erge works in town and has no land, so he can't use farm tools.
The only major item is the yard at home.
The old couple still lives in the main house after they build it.
He's eldest brother's room has good lighting and ventilation, so He Hongjin asked He's second brother to move there, but He's second brother used the excuse that it was troublesome and didn't move.
Actually, you can figure this out if you think about it.
After all, they are brothers.
Let’s talk about Zhao Lanxiang’s personality.
He Erge was probably worried that if he really moved in, Zhao Lanxiang would come and cause trouble again.
He works in town and is away from home. Besides his parents, there are his wife and children at home.
It’s better to have less trouble than more, so let this matter go.
As for money.
The Fu couple would give some every time they came back.
The old couple did have some money in their hands, but when they divided the property, they did not share this money.
He Hongjin said that the money would not be divided for the time being.
At the same time, apart from the five dollars per month mentioned at the beginning, He Erge and his wife are not required to pay any other pension money to the family.
They can still move and figure things out on their own, and the little bit of land they grow each year is enough for them to eat.
Generally speaking, the division of the family property is actually a disguised way of dividing up only Brother He and his wife.
Once all the mess is sorted out, the New Year in the village is over.
Fu Jingyou and He Hongjin took Minmin's household registration page away separately, and the whole family, bringing their families with them, boarded the train heading north again.
History seemed to be repeating itself at that moment. Baichuan leaned against the window, staring at the platform with his big eyes:
"grandfather?"
He Hongjin stood outside with his gray hair wiping his tears.
After a while, he told Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou to take care of their health and take good care of the children.
He called Minmin's name and told her to work hard and listen to her uncle and aunt.
In the end, all the sounds were drowned out by the honking of cars...
The return ticket was bought early in the morning.
If I buy a ticket for Minmin at the station, she won't be able to get a sleeper berth.
Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou took Minmin into the car first.
After the train started, Fu Jingyou found the conductor to explain the situation and bought a new ticket for Minmin.
It was the first time Minmin left home. Looking at the scenery outside the window quickly passing by, she couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat and burst into tears.
Lu Miao held Bai Chuan in one hand, and with the other hand, he held her in his arms, patted her, and comforted her in a slow voice:
"Let's come back together next New Year."
"Um!"
Minmin nodded vigorously.
Lu Miao waited until she recovered a little before asking:
"Minmin, do you want to go to school? Or do you have any hobbies?"
Minmin shook her head. She didn't want to go to school and didn't quite understand what a hobby was.
He just raised his face from his aunt's arms and said seriously:
"Aunt, I don't want to go to school. I love money. I want to make money."
Minmin paused and added:
"Make money for my aunt."
Grandpa and mother-in-law said that her uncle and aunt were her adoptive parents, and she should be filial to them when she grows up.
Minmin thinks so too.
Everyone wants money, so she works hard to earn money for her aunt.
Looking at Minmin's serious little face, Lu Miao frowned slightly and sighed, then hugged her in his arms distressedly:
"Aunt will definitely arrange the brightest path for you."
The northbound train whizzed past, and in the blink of an eye, a day had passed.
Lu Yuanzheng and Tang Mei knew when they would return.
Two people drove to the station early to pick them up.
The other one tidied up the house.
When Lu Miao brought Minmin and several children into the house, the yard, which had been quiet for a long time, became noisy again.
Tang Mei enthusiastically arranged:
"Come on, are you all hungry? Come inside and sit down. The soup is ready. I'll go make the noodles. They'll be ready in no time!"
Only after everyone entered the house did Tang Mei discover something was wrong.
First, he discovered that his son-in-law was missing, and then he found an unfamiliar face among the children.
Tang Mei was stunned and looked at Lu Miao:
"Where's Xiao Fu? And this is..."
Lu Miao waved his hand and briefly explained:
"There's no room in the car. Brother You is coming back on the bus. This is Minmin. I'll talk to you later. Let's eat first. We're starving!"
Tang Mei had seen Minmin when she was little.
But now, after so many years, Minmin has become so thin that Tang Mei really couldn't recognize her.
Tang Mei was surprised when she heard that the little girl was Minmin.
Tang Mei roughly realized that something must have happened, so she didn't ask any more questions for the time being and quickly served the hot chicken noodle soup.
"Okay, eat first, eat first!"
