"Lin Jianshe is a hero who sacrificed his life for his country. We all pay tribute to him." The leaders who came to deliver the pension all bent down and bowed deeply to Yao Yanfang.
"Ms. Yao Yanfang, this is Lin Jianshe's pension of two thousand yuan. Please sign here. Since Lin Zheng and Lin Qinglan are still adults, they can each receive ten yuan per month. This is the certificate from the martyrs' families. When the time comes, they can directly take the certificate to the post office to collect it. The other two thousand yuan was raised by Captain Lin and his subordinates. I just ask you to raise the two children."
(Lin Qingmei was not registered under Lin Jianshe's household registration, so she had nothing. In addition, most people in the military region did not know that Lin Jianshe had a daughter in his hometown.)
After signing the form and receiving the pension, Yao Yanfang had an obvious smile on her face.
After the people who delivered the pension left, Yao Yanfang began to pack up and prepare to return to her parents' home.
Yao Yanfang's parents' home was in a village near the military unit, and it only took half an hour to ride a bike there from the military unit.
"Mom, where are you going?" Lin Qinglan stood at the door and watched Yao Yanfang packing her things. She felt that her mother was very abnormal yesterday. She had been crying her heart out two days ago, but now she was happily humming a song.
"I'm going back to your grandmother's house. It's just right for you to come over. I have something to tell you." Yao Yanfang looked at her graceful daughter and felt a little reluctant to leave. However, she thought that if she left her daughter and son by her side, she would have to live a hard life. For her own good life in the future, she should send them back to her hometown!
"Mom, are you going to abandon me and my brother like people outside say?"
"Qinglan, Mom doesn't want to abandon you, but you will have a hard time staying with me. Now that you have graduated from high school, you will also face going to the countryside. I thought it would be better to send you back to your hometown directly, so that you can reunite with your sister. You often talked about going back to your hometown to see your sister before, and now you finally get your wish."
"Everyone in Linjia Bay is a member of your Lin family. Your safety there is guaranteed, and we can also work in Harbin with peace of mind. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?" Yao Yanfang said the most heartless words in the most gentle voice. She said so much because she wanted to comfort Lin Qinglan's emotions. Before they left the military family compound, she couldn't let everyone know that she had thrown the two children back to her hometown.
"How much money do you plan to let us take back home?" Lin Qinglan looked at Yao Yanfang coldly. She knew that after her father died, her mother would definitely not be able to keep her. But she didn't expect that her mother would abandon her and her two siblings in just one week.
It's not that easy to go back to hometown. Grandpa and grandma are dead, and there is only one adult sister in hometown. Her mother is so cruel that she wants the three siblings to die together.
"I remember your father said that the train ticket from the Northeast to Yangcheng costs 10 yuan, plus the ticket from Yangcheng to Linjiawan costs 26 yuan, a total of 81 yuan. Your brother is still young and doesn't need to spend money to buy the ticket. I'll give you 100 yuan. If you spend it frugally, it should be enough to get back to Linjiawan. You won't be short of food when you get back to Linjiawan. Your grandparents must have left a lot of money. You can't let Lin Qingmei get away with it."
Yao Yanfang didn't see Lin Qinglan's desperate eyes, and she thought her plan was very clever.
"Aren't you worried that my brother and I will be sold by human traffickers on the road? Aren't you worried that your sister's family can't make ends meet? You got 4,000 yuan in compensation, but you only gave us 100 yuan. Is there a more vicious mother than you in the world?" This was the first time that Lin Qinglan spoke so loudly to Yao Yanfang, and she almost yelled at the last moment.
"Do you think one hundred yuan is too little? My monthly salary is only more than 30 yuan, so giving you one hundred yuan is enough. I don't expect you to support me in my old age, so just take this hundred yuan and go back to my hometown!" While speaking, Yao Yanfang had packed her things. She stuffed the hundred yuan into Lin Qinglan's hand and was about to leave.
"It's death now, and it's death to go back home. Dad, wait for me, I'm coming to find you." Lin Qinglan said and hit the wall directly. She was ready to die now. After she died, even if her mother didn't want her brother, the army leaders would find a good family for her brother.
"Ah, there is so much blood! Yao Yanfang, why are you still standing there? Send her to the hospital immediately!"
The neighbors nearby just heard the quarrel between Lin Qinglan and Yao Yanfang and came over to watch the excitement. They didn't expect to witness Lin Qinglan's suicide. Yao Yanfang also panicked when she heard the noises of the neighbors outside. Could it be that everyone heard what she had just said to Lin Qinglan?
It was all because of that damn girl Lin Qinglan's loud voice that she was embarrassed.
Seeing Yao Yanfang's indifference, neighbor Auntie Peng felt that she was cruel. She was not worried even when her daughter was lying in a pool of blood. She thought that such a person was not worthy of being a mother. She found her eldest grandson who was watching the excitement at the door and quickly asked him to go to the military region for help.
"Hammer, run fast and find your father and ask him to send a car to take your sister Lin to the hospital."
