Others would only write half a page, but he wrote two whole pages. Every time Song Tanglan read the letter, he felt both painful and helpless.
"If you don't talk to him faster, he'll talk on for a long time."
"Second sister, did you forget to let Mumu speak?" Song Tanglan pointed at the forgotten Mumu and looked at Song Tangcheng with some suspicion.
Song Tangcheng looked at the son in his arms and couldn't help feeling embarrassed, but he quickly adjusted his mood.
"It's okay. I'll have to ask for leave to go home soon anyway. It's the same thing as talking about it then. Let's go back. It's really cold here."
"All right!"
The two sisters did not discuss what happened on the phone along the way, and only started talking about it when they got home.
Song Tangcheng had guessed his father's decision a long time ago, but he was afraid that his younger sister would get into a dead end, so he tried to persuade her carefully.
"Lanlan, does Dad's choice make you uncomfortable?"
"No, I guessed it a long time ago. Jiang Zhiqing also said that even if we really exposed this matter, his adoptive father would be able to protect himself. Besides, he wasn't the one who came up with the idea. The most he would get is a demotion."
It was impossible for Song Tanglan to have no resentment towards him, but resentment was not a part of her life. What's more, her mother also said that even without him, their family would have been targeted.
It’s no use resenting anything now, life will go on the same way.
"That's good. I was afraid you'd run into a dead end. Actually, I can't blame Dad. Grandpa felt guilty about Uncle back then, and Dad had promised him. It's hard to do anything about this situation now."
Song Tanglan has always known that every family has its own problems, and there is no absolute fairness in many things, let alone families with blood ties.
"I know. Just consider it as forgiving him." If he did this again, she would not let him go so easily, but she did not say it out loud.
After that, the three of them never discussed the matter again and returned to their previous stable lives.
…
Xu Qi was extremely busy with his vermicelli business. Not only did he need to instruct his men to produce more vermicelli before the New Year, he also needed to select suitable black market partners with Lao Jin and Lao Quan.
After all, if the black market has a bad reputation, they can easily be robbed by other scammers.
He was busy all the way until the Chinese New Year, and during this period he had no time to go to the Red Star Brigade.
But after the Chinese New Year, he did not have any free time. He had to busy himself with his official work and drive to other places to purchase goods.
Xu Qi met an acquaintance in this factory, so he got a job as a casual worker. Except for the occasional times when they were too busy and needed him, he was busy with black market affairs the rest of the time.
The new year passed as usual, and Song Tanglan began to busy himself with clearing wasteland and farming and going to work.
Since traveling to this time and space, she has gradually gotten used to her current life. However, even after three years, she is still a wealthy woman with a thousand dollars.
Thinking of this, Song Tanglan couldn't help but smile even in his sleep.
As the new year arrived and 1977 drew closer, Song Tanglan began to plan what to do next.
There were still five years before the resumption of the college entrance examination. By then she would be just 24 years old, which was not too old to take the exam.
Although I have to take the college entrance examination again and experience that tense atmosphere, it is indeed a good way out in this era.
During these five years, she just had to study hard and study with her second sister and brother-in-law so that they could get into university together.
By then, there will be no need to do hard labor from six in the morning to five in the evening like we do now.
Thinking of this, Song Tanglan took out a large pile of exercises and books that he had brought to the countryside from the space.
These are to be distributed to my second sister and brother-in-law, so that they can study hard. When the college entrance examination is resumed, even if they don’t want to take part, it won’t be a mistake to learn more knowledge.
In addition, you must keep an eye on the time and be one of the first people to buy a house. After all, the policy at that time was the most relaxed and not so strict.
As long as you have money, you can buy as much as you want.
In addition to these, when the time comes, I can open a store and have some income, so I don’t have to worry about my college life.
Song Tanglan thought it all out and wrote it all down on paper. When the two of them came back in the evening, she would go to find Song Tangcheng and his wife with a pile of books.
Cheng Fangyuan and Song Tangcheng were a little shocked when they saw such a pile of books, and asked curiously.
"What's this, little sister?"
"Second sister, I think this is what I want to say. Although we have gone to the countryside now, the college entrance examination will be resumed in the future. The country needs talents, so I think we can review in advance. When the college entrance examination comes, we can take it directly. Then we can go back to the city together. So these are the study materials prepared for you."
Cheng Fangyuan quickly refused when she heard this. "It's enough for the two of us sisters to learn. I don't need it."
"Brother-in-law, how can you be so unconfident? Although you only studied in elementary school, there's no telling when you'll be able to resume. As long as you study hard, maybe there will be a spot in the team, and you can take the entrance exam for the Agricultural Soldier University!"
Song Tanglan felt unconvinced after she finished speaking, so she continued. "Brother-in-law, you don't want your wife and children to return to the city and leave you alone in the countryside, do you? Besides, even if you don't take the college entrance exam, it won't hurt to learn more, right, second sister?"
After saying that, he gave a look to his second sister who had been watching the show next to him. Seeing that she received his signal, she poured a glass of water and drank it to quench her thirst.
Song Tangcheng was originally looking like he was watching a show, but after seeing the look in his younger sister's eyes, he immediately became serious and followed in persuading Cheng Fangyuan.
"Ayuan, I think what I said is very right. Factories now require a degree to recruit workers. You can't go to school now, but it never hurts to learn more. I think my suggestion is very good. Look at how well I've prepared. I've prepared books from elementary school to high school."
