Lu Cheng and Lin Yuexi looked at each other, and Lin Yuexi said, "Jingyi, we can't really help you with things like finding connections.
Besides, we don’t have any connections to rely on. You still have to rely on your own real ability to pass the exam. You may not be able to firmly grasp the opportunities you get by taking shortcuts. If you really want to be admitted to the No. 1 Middle School in the county, we can help you find some study materials, which is much more practical than finding connections.”
After hearing this, Lu Jingyi frowned and a look of disappointment flashed across her face.
I thought to myself, "Who said you have no connection? You all know Deputy Secretary Li of the county. I only need your words. In the final analysis, you just don't want to help me..."
Lu Jingyi wanted to question Lin Yuexi, but then she remembered what her father said, so she had to quickly put on a smile, "Sister-in-law is right, I was too impatient. With Sister-in-law and Brother helping me find information, I will definitely be more confident of passing the exam."
Lu Cheng continued, "Little sister, since you have decided to work hard, you have to work hard. You have to focus on studying and stop thinking about those crooked ways. I heard that you didn't pay much attention to studying in school before, this won't do."
Lu Jingyi muttered, blushing, and lowered her head, "Third brother, I know I was wrong. I was ignorant before. I promise to study hard in the future, complete my homework carefully every day, do more exercises, and never play around again."
Lin Yuexi looked at Lu Jingyi. She had heard from people that Lu Jingyi had not been educated at all and was bragging everywhere that her third brother had found her a date in Beijing.
But on the surface, she still said, "Okay, since you said so, we will believe you this time. However, let us be frank in advance. If you don't work hard, we won't help you next time."
Lu Jingyi nodded.
Lin Yuexi then said, "Your brother will bring the information to you in a few days."
"Okay..." Lu Cheng responded. He also knew that Lin Yuexi didn't want to see his sister.
As for Lu Weiqing, after discussion, Lu Cheng and Lin Yuexi decided to lend him 200 yuan to help him out of his urgent need, but asked him to write a promissory note.
Lu Weiqing also agreed.
Just like that, Lu Cheng didn't keep them for dinner and let them leave.
Lu Cheng knew that they were very dissatisfied with the two results, but considering how they treated Yuexi and the two children before, it was already very good that Yuexi could help them in this way.
The first day of the new year passed like this.
However, in the first month of the lunar calendar, “boys on the first day and girls on the second day” is the traditional custom of the Great Hua Kingdom.
Lin Yuexi had already severed all ties with Lin Fugui, so there was no point in her going back.
So on the second day of the Chinese New Year, Lu Cheng did not go anywhere and stayed at home with his wife and children.
It was not until the third day of the Lunar New Year that the sunlight shone through the thin clouds and fell on the courtyard of Lu Cheng's house. Lu Jianmin and Wang Lijuan brought Lu Xiaomei to pay New Year's greetings!
This family was supposed to come here on the second day of the Chinese New Year, but in order not to violate the New Year greetings customs of the Great Hua Kingdom, they returned to their mother's home on the second day of the Chinese New Year, and only came to Lucheng, Lin Yuexi's home on the third day.
When Lu Xiyun saw her cousin Lu Xiaomei, she was so happy that she quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Sister Xiaomei, you are finally here! I played hopscotch with my brother last night, and he cheated when he couldn't beat me.
It's good that you're here. Let's play together as three of us and see how he can cheat. " As he said that, he pulled Lu Xiaomei to his room.
Besides, when Lu Ziyan saw Lu Xiyun complaining to her cousin, he shouted, "Xiyun, you are so shameless. It's obvious that you can't beat me, but you still say I'm cheating. Sister Xiaomei, it's good that you're here. Let's see who wins and who loses, the three of us?"
Lu Ziyan and Lu Xiyun were arguing with each other, neither of them willing to give in. Lu Xiaomei was pulled along with a bright smile on her face. She knew in her heart that these two siblings just liked to quarrel, but they had a good relationship.
The three of them came into the room, and Lu Xiyun deftly took out a set of hopscotch from the cabinet. The colorful beads on the chessboard sparkled in the sunlight.
Lu Xiaomei sat down aside, watched the brother and sister place the chess pieces, and then she went forward and started placing them herself.
"Sister Xiaomei, come here, let's put a good end to Brother Ziyan's prestige this time."
Lu Xiyun said confidently as she placed the chess pieces.
Lu Ziyan snorted, "We don't know who is more powerful yet. Don't cry if you lose later."
In the living room, Lu Jianmin and Wang Lijuan were talking with Lu Cheng and Lin Yuexi.
"Yuexi, when are you moving to the county town?" Wang Lijuan asked.
Lin Yuexi gently stroked the hair beside her ears and replied with a smile: "Let's do it on the eighth day of the first lunar month. By then, we will move out and you can move in here!"
"Third brother's wife, you are moving, is there anything we can help you with?" Lu Jianmin asked.
"No need. Actually, we will only take what we are wearing with us, and leave the rest for you to use. But you do have a sewing machine at home, so I can ask Uncle Xia's ox cart to deliver it directly to my new home in the county..." Lin Yuexi replied with a smile.
Lu Jianmin picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with emotion: "Third brother, you all have settled down in the county, but I, your second brother, have no ability and can only stay at home and earn work points for the rest of my life. ..."
Seeing this, Lu Cheng said, "Second brother, don't think like that. Yuexi has thought it through for you. Before I leave, I will tell you a way to make money. As long as you are willing to work hard, you can make money..."
"What's the matter?" The couple asked in unison when they heard about this good news.
"Brother, sister-in-law, keep your voice down. Don't let anyone hear us. The government doesn't allow this yet." Lin Yuexi said in a low voice, "But don't worry. Doesn't every household have a private plot now? You can plant Gastrodia elata in this private plot! Gastrodia elata is a good thing and is very expensive."
Lu Jianmin and Wang Lijuan looked at each other with confusion on their faces. Lu Jianmin couldn't help but ask, "Growing Gastrodia elata? We don't have Gastrodia elata seeds, we don't know how to grow them, and we don't know where to sell them after we grow them. So, will this method work?"
Lin Yuexi patiently explained: "Gastrodia elata is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb with great market demand. Many people are looking for it now, but the supply is scarce. We have many mountains and forests here, and the climate and soil are suitable for the growth of Gastrodia elata. As long as we master the planting method, the harvest will definitely be good."
Wang Lijuan frowned, a little worried: "But we don't know how to plant it. If the seeds go bad, it will be a waste of time."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law." Lin Yuexi smiled and comforted, "I have found some information about growing Gastrodia elata, and I will leave it to you before I leave. In addition, I will provide you with tubers for growing Gastrodia elata, so the survival rate will be very high. As long as you follow my method, you can make money.
Besides, Lu Cheng and I will not be back for a while after we go to the city, so I will leave my family's private plots for you to plant. As long as you plant the Gastrodia elata in these two plots, you will have no problem eating and wearing warm clothes!"
Lu Cheng also nodded: "Second brother, second sister-in-law, this is indeed an opportunity. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely reap rewards. As long as you grow Gastrodia elata, we can help you find a market in the county."
