Although Yao Xiujuan felt that what Chu Tian said made sense, she still felt that even if she paid money, she might not be able to get in.
If you can really get in by spending 200 yuan, I guess everyone in the Corps would want their children to get in. After all, although everyone is poor nowadays, most people can still borrow 200 yuan by asking relatives and friends for money, or by asking the brigade headquarters for money...
Chu Tian's eyelids gradually became heavy without hearing Yao Xiujuan continue talking, and he soon fell asleep with a snoring sound.
There was no other way. During the three or four days since he came to the Yao family, every night after dinner, Chu Tian was either pulled aside by Yao's father to chat, or by Yao Youjun to chat, and they always talked until midnight.
Besides, except for the first night when he drank too much and slept in the morning, he didn't drink in the following days. When he heard noises outside, he felt embarrassed to continue sleeping in, which led to his sleep deprivation...
Yao Xiujuan heard Chu Tian's snoring and saw that he had fallen asleep like that. She walked forward, pulled the quilt open and gently covered him with it, then walked out of the house and prepared to go to the main room.
"Dad, Mom, I want to go to the steel mill. I don't want to farm the land for the rest of my life, and I don't want you and Mom to farm the land for the rest of your life..."
Yao Xiujuan heard Yao Youjun's words as soon as she stepped into the main hall, and asked, "Youjun, do you really want to go?"
When Yao's father, mother and Yao Youjun heard the noise, they all looked at Yao Xiujuan, and Yao's father quickly put out the cigarette in his hand.
When Yao's mother saw her eldest daughter coming, she waved, "Xiujuan, why are you here? Where's your son-in-law?"
"Brother Tian is asleep."
Yao Xiujuan walked over to Yao's mother and sat down, looking at Yao Youjun who was standing on the ground. "Youjun, do you really want to go? You have to think about it carefully. If you go somewhere, you will have to rely on yourself for everything. You can't fish for three days and dry the net for two days, and you can't be lazy and slack off..."
Yao Youjun raised his chin slightly, "Sister, I know you treat me like a child, but I will be eighteen after the Chinese New Year, an adult!"
"Now that I'm an adult, I can't always stay behind my parents! Besides, I'm the only son in our family. Even if it's not for my parents' future life, I should try my luck just for my own future..."
Yao Xiujuan listened to Yao Youjun's words, opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, and looked at Yao's father who had been silent.
"Dad, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Father Yao looked at Yao Youjun and said, "Youjun, if you want to go, I won't stop you. However, I don't understand those things. Your eldest brother-in-law knows a lot. I will ask your eldest brother-in-law what we need to prepare. Whether it's money or food, I will find a way to get it for you..."
Yao Youjun was overjoyed. "Thank you, Dad. Whether it's money or food you borrowed, I will find a way to pay it back in the future..."
Upon hearing this, Yao Xiujuan couldn't help but say, "Dad, I just heard Brother Tian say that it seems to require 200 yuan..."
Yao's mother covered her mouth in shock, "Two hundred? That much?"
Yao Youjun was also stunned. Two hundred was really too much. He thought it would only cost ten or eight yuan.
Father Yao said calmly, "Two hundred sounds like a lot, but if our friendly forces can get in, even three hundred would be a good deal..."
Yao's mother, "the head of the family..."
Father Yao waved his hand. "That's enough. It's just two hundred yuan. How much do we have now?"
Yao's mother sighed, "We just paid off the debt last year, and now we only have about twenty yuan..."
Yao Xiujuan looked at her mother in surprise, "Pay back the debt? What debt do we owe?"
Yao's mother glanced at Yao's father, and seeing that he didn't react, she said, "Your father broke his leg two years ago, and he borrowed a lot of money from the brigade headquarters at that time!"
Yao Xiujuan stood up suddenly and cried out in shock, "Dad's leg was broken? How come I didn't know?"
Yao's mother hurriedly grabbed Yao Xiujuan and said, "You had just given birth to Wu Ya at that time, so I didn't tell you..."
"You should tell your daughter, why not tell..."
As Yao Xiujuan spoke, her eyes became red. She married far away and it was not easy for her to come back. She was unaware of anything that happened to her parents.
Seeing Yao Xiujuan getting emotional, her mother tried to comfort her, "Xiujuan, it's okay, it's okay. Your second sister and the others were there at the time, and your father recovered after a few months of recuperation. We didn't tell you because you had just given birth to Wu Ya, and we were afraid that knowing would affect your recovery. We didn't tell you afterwards because your father's leg had already healed..."
Father Yao followed up, "Yes, Dad is fine now."
Yao Youjun also hurriedly said, "Sister, don't get excited. We took good care of Dad back then. Look, Dad's legs look the same now..."
Yao Xiujuan gradually calmed down, but her eyes were still slightly red, and her voice was nasal. "You should also tell your daughter..."
Yao Youjun nodded quickly, "Tell me, tell me, I will tell you if there is anything happening at home in the future..."
Upon hearing this, Yao Xiujuan glared at Yao Youjun, "Bah, bah, bah, you crow's mouth! What nonsense are you talking about? Nothing will happen to the family anymore!"
Yao Youjun also hurriedly said "Pooh, Pooh, Pooh" three times, and slapped his mouth, "Yes, yes, I was wrong, I was wrong, our family will never be in trouble again..."
Chu Tian had a particularly comfortable nap. When he opened his eyes, it was already dusk outside.
He sat up and stretched, only to find that Yao Xiujuan and her daughter were not there. He grabbed the cotton jacket and trousers beside the kang and put them on. He put on his cotton boots and was about to leave the house when he heard Yao's mother's voice coming from the yard.
