"No, I'm married now, and I'm thinking about my family first." Lin Qingmei used the same excuse to tell County Magistrate Wang that she was resigning.
"Xufeng doesn't seem to be such a feudal person. Does he really want you to quit your job and return to your family?" County Magistrate Wang always thought that Lin Qingmei was an ambitious girl, and she had done well in the farm over the years.
She said she wanted to quit so suddenly. If no one opposed her going out to work, he really couldn't think of any other reason.
"County magistrate, this is my personal wish and has nothing to do with him. And even if I go back to the village to work, I can still contribute to the collective." Lin Qingmei didn't want County Magistrate Wang to misunderstand He Xufeng. This matter was her own idea and had nothing to do with others.
Although County Magistrate Wang was reluctant, seeing Lin Qingmei's firm attitude, he could only sigh and said, "Okay, since you have made up your mind, I can't force you to stay. But if you change your mind later, you are welcome to come back at any time."
"Don't worry, when I want to work in the future, I will come to you as soon as possible." Lin Qingmei was in a much better mood after seeing that the matter was settled.
Although the work at the farm was not bad, the pressure was too great. In the past few years, she was nervous every day, fearing that the seafood in the farm would become sick if she was not careful.
On the first day after leaving her job, Lin Qingmei slept in. When she came out of her room, Lin Zheng had already returned from school.
"Second sister, you got up so early today. I was already preparing for my second meal." Lin Zheng was extremely envious of his second sister for being able to sleep in. In his heart, he had already begun to pray that summer vacation would come soon.
"You can't be envious, but you are still young and need to go to school."
Lin Qingmei raised her eyebrows and said, "You came to make me angry, and I'll kill you with anger."
Lin Zheng: ...I feel like swearing, his second sister is such a bitch!
At lunch, only Lin Qingmei, Lin Zheng and Xu Zhiwei were at home eating.
He Xufeng always eats lunch in the commune cafeteria and comes back only after get off work in the evening.
After lunch, Lin Qingmei planned to go to the beach and go fishing. She brought her fishing rod and bucket to the beach, and the sea breeze gently brushed her face, making her feel very comfortable.
Not long after, the big turtle also came to Lin Qingmei's side.
"Girl, I heard you got married, so I brought you a wedding gift."
"Where's the gift?" Lin Qingmei opened her arms towards the big turtle. She was quite curious about what the big turtle was going to give her.
"Wait a moment, I'll bring it to you." The big turtle said and went into the sea.
Lin Qingmei waited on the shore for nearly half an hour before the big turtle slowly surfaced.
The sea turtle slowly approached the shore, holding something in its mouth that gave off a strange aroma. Lin Qingmei took a closer look and found that it was a piece of ambergris. She was extremely surprised, as such a precious thing was not easy to come by.
"Grandpa Turtle, this is too expensive. I can't accept it." Although Lin Qingmei was tempted, she still felt something was wrong.
"Take it, girl, this is what you deserve. You have protected this sea area over the years, and even we, the sea elves, have benefited from it." The big turtle insisted on pushing the ambergris in front of her.
Lin Qingmei had no choice but to accept it, her heart filled with gratitude.
