Chapter 22 Chapter 22 Not an ordinary person
Yang Dai has the memories of her original self and has been working to clear her current reputation.
But in fact, in her heart, she never felt that the original body had done anything wrong.
Ultimately it's just because of poverty.
Because of poverty, people have to fight for every penny of resources. When someone has the upper hand, someone else will be at a disadvantage.
But regarding the matter of her uncle Guan Changlin, Yang Dai felt that she could not speak for her original self against her conscience.
Yang Dai originally had two uncles, and Guan Changlin is now her younger uncle.
The Guan family is an old resident of the Zhanghe Brigade and has always relied on medical skills for a living.
The Guan and Changlin brothers are two years apart in age, but Yang Dai's grandfather had completely different opinions about them.
Guan Changlin's elder brother had a talent for prescriptions and pharmacology since childhood and had been valued since childhood.
Although Guan Changlin also followed his father to learn medicine, he had an older brother who was very capable, so Guan Changlin was not conspicuous at home at all.
Moreover, the Zhanghe Brigade is so small, and according to the Guan family's rules, only one person needs to stay to serve as a doctor.
Since Guan Changlin's brother is talented, he is destined to take over, and Guan Changlin can find other ways out.
Although Guan Changlin was unwilling, he could not compete with his brother and knew that his father's arrangement was beneficial to him.
Therefore, after he turned fifteen, Guan Changlin stopped studying medicine and instead prepared to learn how to build houses.
At that time, it was still an apprenticeship system, and the situation was not peaceful. Guan Changlin studied on and off for three or four years before he was considered a master and was about to find a job on his own.
However, Guan Changlin's brother got into trouble and died without being saved.
Guan's father hopes that the Guan family's medical skills will continue to be passed down, so he can only rely on Guan Changlin to support the Guan family.
Guan Changlin never expected that things would turn out like this after he finally let go of his obsession with studying medicine.
He agreed to his father's request without hesitation and devoted himself to medicine.
Knowing that he was not as talented as his brother, he could only put in more effort and let himself catch up.
This is an old story of the Guan family. When these things happened, Yang's mother had not yet married, and there was no trace of Yang Dai.
But Yang Dai was cute when she was a child and was loved by her grandfather. She often went to Guan's house.
When people get older, they always like to reminisce about the past, and this past naturally includes the two brothers Guan Changlin.
Therefore, Yang Dai heard many comments from her grandfather saying that Guan Changlin was not as good as her brother.
These comments had nothing to do with Yang Dai. After all, Guan Changlin's brother had passed away for many years. Except for his grandfather who occasionally mentioned it, other people in the family tried their best not to touch on this matter.
After hearing this, Yang Dai went to Guan Changlin and started to speak nonsense, saying that Guan Changlin was incompetent.
It wasn't enough to say it once, he said it several times in a row, and Guan Changlin endured it for the sake of his father.
After all, Yang Dai was young at the time, and the evaluation that he was inferior to others came from his own father. Even though Guan Changlin felt uncomfortable hearing these comments, he had no intention of going against his own father.
But after that, Guan Changlin's father passed away, and Yang Dai still used the point that Guan Changlin lacked ability and talent.
Once, Guan Changlin was busy sorting out the medicinal herbs he had dried. Yang Dai mentioned her brother who had passed away early in front of Guan Changlin, and said that the herbs Guan Changlin had prepared and dried did not look very good.
Guan Changlin endured the humiliation and ridicule from a junior like Yang Dai again and again, but when he saw that Yang Dai had no intention of restraining herself, he got angry.
Yang Dai was strictly forbidden to go to Guan's house again.
Anyway, Guan's father has passed away, and the Guan family is headed by Guan Changlin. Guests that Guan Changlin does not welcome are certainly not qualified to be guests.
Guan Changlin's sudden outburst scared Yang Dai. After all, this uncle had always been a good guy in front of Yang Dai. She immediately vowed never to go to her uncle's house again.
At that time, Yang's mother was still dragged down by Yang Dai, and as a result, Guan Changlin had no good face towards his sister Yang's mother for many years.
In rural areas, it is very important for a woman to have a supportive family and whether her family can be capable.
The existence of her daughter cut off contact between Yang's mother and her parents' home. Naturally, Yang's mother was heartbroken and anxious. At first, she took Yang Dai back to her parents' home again and again to apologize.
But Yang Dai refused to listen to discipline. After her mother taught her several times, she gave up and went back to her parents' home again and again, trying to ease the relationship.
As time went on, Yang Dai's impression of her uncle Guan Changlin naturally became weaker and weaker.
Recalling her original body's past, Yang Dai was speechless.
"Your uncle is not a petty person. He ignored you for so many years because he thought you were useless. Now that you have done your job properly, we can have a proper relationship with your relatives." Mother Yang said with a sigh.
After this incident happened a few years ago, she did regret it and also thought about disciplining her daughter harshly.
But Yang Dai, although she sneers at things she despises, is still arrogant.
But he is very kind to people he needs and who he likes, and he has a very clever way of coaxing people.
At that time, Yang Dai knew that she had made a mistake, so she tried her best to please her parents. In addition, she was favored by her parents, so in the end she did not receive any severe punishment.
"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely apologize to my uncle. I have lived too confusedly these years, and I will never do such a thing again." Yang Dai promised Yang's mother seriously and leaned over to give her a hug.
At this moment, she really felt sorry for Yang's mother. She had such a troublesome daughter who worried her more than others. She always caused trouble and only cared about digging holes and not burying them, leaving the family to clean up the mess behind her.
Yang Dai accompanied her mother for lunch. When she returned home, Han Lin was lying in bed sleeping.
"You're back? I said I would pick you up later." Han Lin heard the noise at home, opened his eyes and sat up.
"No need to be so troublesome. You must be tired from work. It's not easy to get some free time. Just have a good rest." Yang Dai sat aside and looked at the newspaper on the table.
"They're all the latest newspapers, with a pretty good variety. Take a look when you have time." Han Lin noticed Yang Dai's gaze and said casually, "If there's any newspaper you haven't bought, just tell me and I'll bring it back when I get off work."
Yang Dai smiled, feeling Han Lin's kindness, and reciprocated by taking the initiative to ask about Han Lin's work.
After all, Han Lin had never worked the night shift before.
Han Lin's explanation for this was very simple. He said that he had discovered earlier that the number of steel bars on the construction site was not right. After paying more attention for a few days, he discovered that someone on the construction site was stealing, so Han Lin revealed the news to the construction site supervisor.
They stayed at the construction site for another night and finally caught the criminal red-handed.
However, Han Lin did not tell his father about this. His father only knew that he was suddenly assigned to be on duty.
"I'm off tomorrow. Shall we go to the county town together?" Han Lin quickly changed the subject. He still remembered what they had talked about before about taking photos. Now that they finally had time, he naturally had to make the most of it.
Because they were going out, Yang Dai and Han Lin got up early in the morning and planned to go to the department store to buy some things.
"Do you want to go to the black market again?" When passing by the commune, Yang Dai suddenly remembered what happened before and asked suddenly.
"It is said that the commune has arrested a lot of people recently, and the black market should be hit hard. If you want to exchange things, I can go to the black market in the county town to have a look." Han Lin had to pass by the commune every time he went out early and came back late. Although he did not deliberately inquire about it, he heard a lot of news.
"Let's talk about it later." At the moment, the family had everything they needed, and they had coupons to buy things at the department store. The reason why Yang Dai mentioned the black market was more out of curiosity.
After all, it was something she had never seen before, so she didn't quite understand this model and wanted to see it with her own eyes.
Taking photos at this time is a luxury, and there are usually not many people in the photo studio, so the two of them naturally don't need to queue.
"You two are good-looking. If you put up your photos, I'm sure a lot of people will want to take pictures with you." The owner of the photo studio greeted them subconsciously, but after taking a look at their expressions, he quickly took back his words, "I was just saying it casually. As I get older, I always want to talk more."
Yang Dai smiled and agreed with the owner of the photo studio on a time to pick up the photos.
The photo studio owner looked at the two people leaving, shook his head, slapped his mouth, and secretly reminded himself not to talk too much.
Now this photo studio is state-owned, not his own business. Even if the business increases, he will not have any extra money to take. Moreover, although the two men were dressed casually, they had an aura about them and were probably not simple people.
Yang Dai naturally didn't know about the photo studio owner's evaluation. She was shopping in the department store at the moment.
In a while, Yang Dai will go to apologize to her uncle Guan Changlin, so she naturally wants to bring more gifts. The department store is the place with the most complete range of things in the entire county, so she naturally wants to buy more.
In the department store, Yang Dai once again feasted her eyes on the washing machines and televisions, thinking that she would discuss the electricity issue with the team leader after returning.
And it’s time for me to submit my work for the second time. Although I haven’t found any writing competitions that pay money or votes, I can use my pen name to support myself.
After all, judging from the current situation, contributing to newspapers can bring you a lot of extra income.
After buying enough things, Yang Dai and Han Lin prepared to go home.
According to Yang Dai's idea, she actually wanted to go and see the construction site where Han Lin was. It was said that they were going to build a five-story building that could accommodate a lot of people, and the house would have electricity and water, which would be very convenient.
There are many buildings like this in the county town, but other places are formal family quarters where people already live, so it is impossible for Yang Dai to go in and visit.
So I can only look at this semi-finished product.
However, Han Lin did not suggest that Yang Dai go there now, and promised to come and see it again when the house was completely built.
It was still early to go home, so the two were in no hurry.
But before I entered the team, I saw a group of children running towards me.
"Brother Han, sister-in-law, someone is waiting at your door."
"I heard he's a factory worker. He looks so stylish wearing glasses." The children surrounded the bicycle and explained the current situation to the two people one by one.
