Chapter 364: Era - There's a Time Traveler Next Door 15
"I left money under your pillow because I was worried that if something urgent happened to you and my family was far away, I wouldn't be able to send you money in time.
But my eldest granddaughter, you can’t spend money recklessly even if you have it!
You have to understand that the protruding rafters will rot first.
We just need to keep everything at the average level of our classmates.
You have to promise your grandparents that even if you have the money now, you will not buy a new bicycle.
It’s not that my grandparents are stingy with the money, but buying a new car is too eye-catching.
Buying a second-hand one won’t interfere with your regular riding.
At that time, we can say that we were lucky enough to catch up, and others will at most say that we were just lucky.
It’s a different story if you buy a new car. Not only will it attract the jealousy of others, but those with bad intentions may also do bad things behind your back.
If someone takes this matter too seriously, this car can become a handle for them to attack you and your family!
It's not worth it for us to do that for a car.
A new bike will become old after riding it for a while, isn’t that right?”
Li Dandan now completely understood the good intentions of the old couple.
I feel sorry for my child and worry that he will suffer, but I am also worried that he will not know the seriousness of the matter and cause trouble.
Not only did he leave money, but he also made the seriousness of the matter clear.
I'm afraid the old couple must have spent several sleepless nights worrying before they could come up with such a relatively safe solution.
After traveling through so many worlds, this world really warms my heart.
Li Dandan's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
"My grandparents took such a big risk for me, I'm not ungrateful!
I am not a child anymore. Grandpa explained everything so clearly that I already know the seriousness of the matter.
Don't worry, grandpa and grandma, I will definitely not show off and will protect myself.
As for the money left under the pillow, I will never use it unless it is absolutely necessary, and I will not spend the money in public indiscriminately.
I will keep up with my classmates, study hard, and find a good job after graduation so that my grandparents and parents can rest assured."
Zhao Jinhua patted Li Dandan on the back.
"Good boy, I know that my Dandan is the smartest. If I tell you, you will definitely understand the key here.
If someone bullies you at school, don't be afraid, we have your grandfather's military medals at home.
Even if the other party's family is a high-ranking official, with your grandfather's military medals and some old connections that have not been used, we can still compete with them.
Just study hard, take care of yourself, and don't be afraid of anything else."
Li Tiezhu smacked his lips and scolded Zhao Jinhua: "You, please teach your child something good. If you teach him the same way, he will become a little bully."
Li Dandan burst out laughing. She knew in her heart that the old couple had just seen her eyes turn red. It was a misunderstanding. They were afraid that the previous topic would scare her.
I said this on purpose to divert her attention.
Li Dandan also joined in the fun and joked.
"Grandpa, you've fought so many devils, and this is the first time you made money? Didn't you make more money after that?"
Li Tiezhu frowned.
"I dare not say that! After that, your grandfather and I joined the revolutionary team. It was discipline not to take a single needle or thread from the people.
What we found after defeating the Japanese is called captured supplies.
Those are things needed for the team's development, how can they be taken away directly?
I have been an outstanding Communist Party member since I joined the army. You cannot slander my Party spirit."
Li Dandan laughed so hard that Zhao Jinhua also smiled and gave Li Tiezhu a look, saying, "Bad behavior!"
After the Li family members got together, they didn't continue shopping because they had too many things with them, and went straight back to the guesthouse.
After Li Dandan found out that there was still money in the pillow, the first thing she did when she returned to the dormitory was to secretly take the money out and put it into her space.
It's not as safe as putting it in your own space.
After a good night's sleep, the whole family gathered together again in the morning to stroll along the overpass.
The overpass is extremely lively at this moment, with small stalls standing next to each other.
The Li family ate while watching various folk performances.
Juggling, martial arts, and folk art, each one has its own unique skills.
As Li Tiezhu watched, he would shout "good" and would not hesitate to give a tip of two cents.
Even the man selling powerful pills, who was often mentioned in later generations but never seen, was seen this time.
We also saw a stilt yangko team in the evening. The whole family was excited that day.
On the way back to the guesthouse, we continued to discuss.
However, this period of time was also the last glory of this place.
Once the public-private partnership is fully implemented, we will no longer see scenes like the current one.
Tomorrow is the first day that Li Dandan goes to school, and the Li family is preparing to go back home.
I have given Li Dandan all the instructions I need in the past few days.
In the evening, Li Dandan did not return to school this time, but stayed in the guesthouse and shared a bed with Zhao Jinhua for the night.
Yu Xiuzhi also exchanged rooms with Li Tiezhu, and the three women talked a lot about private matters that night.
The next day, Li Dandan said she would go and see them off to the car, but the Li family refused to agree.
"We are grown-ups now, we don't need you to send us there. You send us there and then come back yourself.
Just take us to the entrance of the guesthouse, and we'll get in the car and leave in a moment."
"Dandan, don't forget to write home and tell them not to worry."
"I've got it in mind. I'll definitely write more often. Don't worry, I promise to take good care of myself.
When I come back from vacation, you might even see that I've gained weight."
Zhao Jinhua laughed out loud at what Li Dandan said.
"It's good to be fat. Girls still look better with a little flesh."
At this time, Li Huaiyuan walked in from outside.
"Mom and Dad, the tricycle is here. Let's move our things onto it."
Li Tiezhu stood up first.
"Let's move downstairs."
The main reason is that the sewing machine is quite large, and the rest of the family can take it away with a normal bag.
As she watched the Li family walk away, Li Dandan felt a little empty in her heart.
However, Li Dandan has experienced many worlds and many parting scenes, so she quickly adjusted her state.
I strode back to school, ready to embrace campus life in the 1950s.
There is no military training as a requirement for university admission now, but it will be implemented starting from 1958.
Li Dandan and her group were the last group to enter the school without undergoing military training.
At this time, higher education in the country has not yet been widely popularized, and those who can go to university generally come from well-off families.
In this life, Li Dandan chose a standard Chinese major.
Many wealthy families are willing to let their daughters study this major so that they can add some literary touch.
How does the saying go? "A man of culture is naturally elegant." That's probably what it means.
Li Dandan has never studied Chinese in all her lives, and other majors in this era are incomparable to those in later generations, so she chose this one.
Make up for the literary bacteria that were missing before.
Also be a literary little fairy.
