County High School is a long-standing institution, and spider webs on the walls and roofs are common. In other words, in this era, many houses, whether in the countryside or in the county, have spider webs, so it is not surprising for these students. If it were the former army, it would certainly not be surprising, but the current army likes to be clean, or is used to being clean. The Lin brothers, who even clean the pig nest and chicken nest, all like to be clean.
When Dajun first went to the county town to study in high school, he was teased by his roommates because he had to take a shower every day, but Dajun was very calm. Basically, as long as they didn't compete with him for food, he was very calm. According to Dajun, he was a worldly person. He followed Director Yang to buy piglets and met many people from state-owned factories in the pig farm. He was different from these high school students who had never seen the world.
In fact, they are indeed different, and there is a big difference in mentality.
Although the boys in the dormitory were jealous or envious of Li Wei and did not like him, they were kind by nature. Seeing the spider web in the corner of the roof and their desks were placed in the corner against the wall, they helped cover Li Wei's lunch box.
Li Wei was playing outside, and when he came back, he was happy to think of the jealous looks of the boys. As a result, when he walked into the dormitory, he saw that his red-roasted pork was gone, and he immediately asked loudly: "Where is my lunch box? Where is my lunch box? Did you eat the red-roasted pork and hide the lunch box?" He never thought that the lunch box with the lid was his.
Cui Liang was unhappy: "You are a person who does good things but gets no reward. Isn't that your lunch box? We put the lid on it for you."
Li Weidi laughed sarcastically when he heard this: "Who asked you to meddle in other people's business? What if you spoil my braised pork? Are you drooling over the aroma of my braised pork?"
Lin Dajun rolled his eyes after hearing this, but he didn't say anything. His sister said that one should learn to be silent about things that one doesn't know about. At the same time, one should not meddle in other people's business. He didn't care about Li Wei.
Qian Fei: "Bah, who cares about your braised pork? Look at the roof, there are spider webs there, we were worried that the dirt on the spider webs would fall into your braised pork, so we kindly covered it for you, but you still wrongly accused us, so just don't cover it."
Li Wei looked up and really saw the spider web. He quickly moved his lunch box away and his face turned dark, but he didn't say anything.
Lin Dajun: "Your braised pork has been down there for so long, maybe something dirty has fallen in, you should check it out."
Cui Liang: “…”
Qian Fei: “…”
Li Wei: “…”
Cui Liang felt that Lin Dajun's words were very poisonous and greatly irritated Li Wei.
But the problem is, Lin Dajun didn't think his words were harsh. He was giving the reminder sincerely. After all, Li Wei's braised pork had been placed down there before they arrived. Who knew if anything in the spider web had fallen down?
the next day
The school meals were not fixed, but you steamed them yourself in a lunch box. Some people steamed sweet potatoes, some steamed rice, whatever you steamed, you ate. If you had food stamps, you could buy steamed bread in school, but the supply of steamed bread in school was relatively small.
Dajun had rice porridge in the morning. He put a handful of rice in the lunch box and added a lot of water to make porridge. The rice was exchanged from Lin Yiyi with sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn. The reason why Dajun had porridge in the morning was because of the braised radish. Drinking porridge and eating braised radish at the same time tasted especially good.
Cui Liang looked at it and said with a savory mouth: "Dajun, your braised radish looks delicious." Radishes are cheap, but the problem is that braised radish is cooked with soy sauce and sugar, and sugar is not cheap. Moreover, to roast the radish until it is charred, as if it is coated with a layer of color, a lot of sugar is needed. If this sugar is used to make sugar water, it can make several cups of it.
Lin Dajun seemed to be unable to see Cui Liang's greed. He ate with big mouthfuls and nodded, "Yeah, my sister cooked it yesterday." In fact, he really couldn't see other people's greed. In Lin Dajun's eyes, eating was the first priority and he never cared about others.
Cui Liang and Lin Dajun have known each other for four years, three years in junior high school and now in high school. He understands that Lin Dajun sometimes has a stubborn personality, so he said, "Let me have a bite, and I'll give you half a steamed bun." Cui Liang's family conditions are also good.
Lin Dajun looked at the radish and then at the steamed bun. A lunch box of porridge contained too much water. It would fill him up now, but it would not be enough in two hours. So he nodded, picked up two chopsticks of radish and gave them to Cui Liang. Cui Liang gave Lin Dajun half a steamed bun.
I have to say that Lin Yiyi's braised radish is really delicious, because she used a lot of seasonings, including kuixiang and star anise. So when Cui Liang took a bite, he thought it was clearly radish, but how come he tasted like meat?
At noon, Lin Dajun took out his two lunch boxes from the steaming iron basket. Both were tied with ropes and had Lin Dajun's name on them.
After getting his lunch box, he and Cui Liang found a place to sit down. There were four long tables in this area, all of which were seats for Lin Dajun's class. Each class had a fixed seat. Usually, everyone in a dormitory would sit together. Li Wei also took his lunch box and sat next to Lin Dajun: "Dajun, you're eating sweet potatoes for lunch?"
Lin Dajun has opened a lunch box, which contains two sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are soft, sticky and sweet after being steamed, and they actually taste very good. However, people here eat too many sweet potatoes, so some people think they are not tasty. For Lin Dajun, whether it is rice or sweet potatoes, as long as they can fill his stomach, it is fine. Besides, his sister said that it is good to eat sweet potatoes every day, and you can tell from his sister's love for sweet potatoes.
Li Wei opened his lunch box and found white rice inside: "It smells so good, so good." Li Wei used these words to despise Lin Dajun, but Lin Dajun was unmoved. Li Wei had no reason to dislike Lin Dajun. Many boys in the school had shabby clothes, but Lin Dajun's clothes were all new and had no patches. Many people would curry favor with him because of his well-off family, but Lin Dajun would not, and even often said things to provoke him. Li Wei felt that Lin Dajun was mocking him. So, he always wanted to find an opportunity to bully Lin Dajun.
Lin Dajun didn't even look at Li Wei, because he ate sweet potatoes every day, and Li Wei would laugh at him every day. If it were a boy with a different mentality, he would have been very self-abased. But Lin Dajun, who had a lot of private money, would not feel self-abased. Who was he? He was Lin Dajun, who had hidden a hundred yuan of private money and could become a worker after graduation. Since he followed Director Yang out to see the world, the word "self-abased" no longer existed in Lin Dajun's life.
As Lin Yiyi became the president's assistant, he no longer understood what inferiority complex was.
Ignoring Li Wei, Lin Dajun, who only had food in his eyes, opened another lunch box, and the aroma of stewed beef with potatoes wafted out.
Cui Liang: "Damn, Dajun, you brought some meat too?"
Lin Dajun: "This is beef. My sister bought it with great difficulty and cooked it specially for me." No one knew how Lin Dajun came up with this idea. Anyway, when he went to his eldest sister's house there was beef, and his eldest sister packed it up and asked him to bring it. He thought that his eldest sister must have done this specially because she felt sorry for him.
Pork and beef are both meat, and the price may not be much different, but pork is common, for example, people with urban household registration can get pork in their monthly welfare, but beef is different. Although killing cattle is not illegal, in this era, cattle are the lives of ordinary people. Unless the cattle are dead, the brigade will not kill the cattle, which shows how precious cattle are.
Cui Liang: "Dajun, I...I'll exchange food with you?"
Lin Dajun: "No, two sweet potatoes for lunch are enough for me."
Cui Liang: "... Then give me a potato." If he couldn't eat beef, he would eat a potato with the aroma of beef. "I'll give you a candy."
Lin Dajun: “Okay.” As long as he doesn’t suffer any loss.
The students watching the show heard Lin Dajun mention his sister more than once. Everyone knew that his sister bought the bicycle for him to go to school. So someone asked curiously, "Lin Dajun, what does your sister do? She seems to be very good."
Li Wei's eyes rolled, and a hint of malice flashed across them. Lin Dajun's sister could afford a bicycle, buy beef, and was very nice to Lin Dajun. She looked like someone who had emptied her husband's house and given it to her own family. So he asked, "Lin Dajun, could the things your sister gave you be from your husband's family? Women like this are the most disgusting."
Everyone listened to Li Wei's words and thought, it is indeed possible. Suddenly, everyone looked at Lin Dajun with a strange look. Nowadays, no man would like to empty his husband's family to support his own family.
Lin Dajun, who didn't hear Li Wei's malicious intent, said: "Such a woman is indeed not good. My sister taught us brothers since we were young that we should not marry such a woman."
Li Wei: “…”
Cui Liang chuckled: "The big army sister is really powerful."
Lin Dajun: "Yes, the money I used to buy my bicycle and new clothes was all earned by my sister herself."
Li Wei didn't believe it: "What does your sister do? How can she make so much money?"
Lin Dajun thought for a moment and said, "My sister is amazing. She skipped grades and graduated from junior high school in one year, and from high school in one year. After graduating from high school, she was recruited by the commune to work as the president's assistant."
"Ah..." a classmate shouted, "Your sister is not Lin Yiyi, right?"
Cui Liang said: "Yes, it's Lin Yiyi, how did you know?"
The classmate said, "I heard from my cousin that when he was in high school, there was a girl named Lin Yiyi in the school. She graduated from high school in just one year and became a legend in our school."
Lin Dajun: "My sister is also from our school. It is because of my sister that I came to study in this high school."
