Two baskets of briquettes, twenty kilograms of rice, ten kilograms of white flour, two kilograms of oil, twenty eggs, a large strip of pork belly, as well as chicken cakes, malted milk, White Rabbit toffee, and brown sugar rock sugar and fruit candies.
Lin Nianhe looked at these things and was stunned for a long time without coming back to his senses.
In this day and age, no matter which of these things you take out alone, it is a great gift. She went to the captain to gain favor and gave him half a catty of candy. The things this man got... were enough to get a wife, right?
She opened the last small package and dug out a pair of rubber shoes, two packages of candles, two pairs of work gloves, and even a stack of recent newspapers.
There are two small packages in the package. One package contains medicine. Various pills are wrapped separately. The name and dosage of the medicine are written on the paper package. They are all commonly used medicines. Another paper bag weighing half a kilogram contained earthy yellow powder.
Lin Nianhe was very sure that this packet of yellow powder was realgar powder.
It's not that she is well-informed, it's that the writing on paper is too clear.
'Realgar powder'
'There are many insects and ants in the countryside. Sprinkle the powder on outdoor walls and dark places, but not too much. Avoid spreading indoors and do not eat in large quantities as it is poisonous. If it is accidentally spilled indoors, immediately open the doors and windows to ventilate it. If not used up, seal and store outdoors. '
The handwriting on the paper was firm and strong, just like the handwriting on the medicine bag. They both said that the writing was like the person he wrote it. Lin Nianhe guessed that the person who wrote it must be a tough guy.
Lin Nianhe read the notes several times and admired the person who wrote the note - he was so considerate.
She firmly believed that the person who wrote the letter was not the doctor at the hospital, but the "brother" who delivered the things.
Who is this person?
Confused, Lin Nianhe picked up the newspaper and dropped the envelope inside.
She raised her eyebrows, took a disinfectant paper towel from the space, wiped her fingers clean, and threw the garbage into the space. She took a piece of chicken cake and ate it while returning to sit on the edge of the kang, and took out the letter with one hand.
"Nianhe,
Seeing words is like meeting.
Life in the countryside is no easier than in the city. Please take care of yourself and don't make it too difficult because of work-divided rations. The mountain roads are rugged and it is inconvenient to collect firewood. You can use coal to replace the share of firewood without having to worry about it.
I am busy with work on weekdays, so I have to visit at my leisure. If you have anything urgent, you can go to the brigade headquarters to borrow a phone and call me. My unit phone number is: ******. I hope you remember it by heart.
Su Yuncheng"
Lin Nianhe looked at the short letter and was stunned for a long time. He finally remembered who this wealthy young man who showed his love was.
The Su family and the Lin family were family friends. The two families lived next to each other. Before Lin Nianhe went to the countryside, he went to the Su family for dinner with his father and mother.
And the only son of the Su family, Su Yuncheng... was the little brother of the original owner.
Lin Nianhe read the letter again and saw the implication between the words - don't work hard, I will support you.
She suddenly felt that these things were hot to her hands!
She can honor her parents for the original owner, but she cannot fall in love for her!
And she likes scheming little wolfdogs, not rough and tough guys.
Lin Nianhe looked at the chicken cake that he had eaten most of, and didn't know if it was too late to spit it out now.
At the same time, Beijing.
Father Lin was sitting in the office half-heartedly, thinking in his mind——
My daughter should have gotten off the train, right? It should be the educated youth point, right? His daughter is so filial and will definitely write him a letter immediately. Then he should be able to receive a letter from her in another half month, right?
"Old Lin! My boy called!"
The office door was kicked open, and a man about the same age as Father Lin walked in with a smile.
Father Lin raised his eyes and glanced at the old man, and replied vaguely: "It's just a phone call, why are you showing off?"
Father Lin frowned.
He checked and found that the Shili Brigade also had a call, but why didn't his daughter call him?
Yes, his daughter is timid and afraid of strangers. She must be embarrassed because she is unfamiliar with the place...
Su's father looked at him: "You're not surprised? Okay, I'll let Yun Cheng hang up the phone and get busy. This guy just came back from He Yatou's place, so he must be quite busy..."
With a whoosh, Father Su saw a black shadow passing in front of his eyes. When he looked back, Father Lin had long since disappeared.
Father Lin trotted to Father Su's office and picked up the phone without taking a breath: "Yun Cheng? Are you still there?"
The person on the other end of the phone immediately replied: "Uncle Lin, I'm here."
"I heard from your dad that you went to see Hehe? How is she? Has she lost weight? Is she not sick? Can she eat enough? Is there a lot of people in the educated youth area? Can she get used to sleeping? Is she tired from working? How old is she? Is the captain easy to get along with..."
Su Yuncheng waited for Lin's father to finish asking and then answered succinctly: "When I arrived, Nianhe went to see the team leader, but I didn't see her. I heard from the comrades at the Educated Youth Point that she went to send you a telegram. There are a lot of people in the Educated Youth Point, but Nianhe lives by herself, and her house is in the backyard of the educated youth point. There is a kang and a stove, and you can fire it yourself."
"There are still things at the bureau. I can't wait any longer. I can only come back first. I will go to see her after a few days of rest. All the food and oil you gave me have been sent to her. Don't worry."
Su Yuncheng didn't tell Father Lin that the small shabby house was originally a woodshed, so as not to worry about it at home.
Father Lin wanted to listen to it word by word, and immediately realized something was wrong: "He He lives by herself? Is she being squeezed out by other comrades?"
Su Yuncheng thought about what he heard at the educated youth center, and the corners of his lips slightly raised: "No, it was because the female educated youth dormitory couldn't fit in, so Nianhe took the initiative to live there. She said...she said that she was not honest when sleeping. When she was three years old, So I kicked Aunt Lin’s arm and dislocated it.”
Father Lin was stunned and laughed loudly: "My daughter has a spirit of dedication! She must be worried that other comrades will be too lonely to live by themselves. That's why she said this!"
Su Yuncheng should cooperate.
He always felt that the girl next door had changed, but that was normal. He had been away from the capital for four years, so it was strange that she had not changed.
Father Lin asked some more detailed questions and thanked Su Yuncheng repeatedly before reluctantly hanging up the phone.
Su's father knew that his old friend was worried about his daughter, so he patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Okay, I sent the child out because I am afraid that she will be implicated. With Yun Cheng taking care of her, He He will be fine."
Dad Lin wiped his sore eyes and complained: "Hehe sent me a telegram as soon as he arrived at the educated youth point. Why do you think this kid doesn't know how to rest?"
Dad Su: "..."
Father Lin picked up his old friend's teapot and took a sip of water. He looked at the chirping birds outside the window and sighed: "My daughter is filial!"
Su's father rolled his eyes at him, but because Lin Nianhe had just gone to the countryside, he didn't argue with him.
Father Lin didn't want to show off to him for too long. He only talked about it for about ten minutes, and then he couldn't wait to go home and tell his wife about his daughter's current situation.
Lin Nianhe, the filial daughter, rubbed her hot ears and took a sip of corn paste.
This meal made her stomach ache.
She knew that she was eye-catching, but what was it about men and women who glanced at her from time to time?
Moving to the backyard to distance yourself from them was indeed the right thing to do. She wanted to get into college and make a fortune, so she had no time to scheming with them.
The rough corn paste scratched my throat, making my throat hurt.
Lin Nianhe frowned again.
She has been here for only half a month, and she has eaten cornmeal at the Lin family, but the Lin family's cornmeal is much finer than this - Comrade Lao Lin has a grinder, and the cornmeal he buys has to be ground three times before being put into the pot.
But there is obviously no one here who has the extra energy to bother. The cornmeal is very rough, so the corn paste is not tasty, and the cornstarch is hard and scratches the teeth.
Lin Nianhe nibbled on the steamed bun in small mouthfuls, until his cheeks were sore from chewing.
The old educated youths finished their meal in twos and twos, but no one left. They sat together and planned to have a meeting.
Sun Guanghui saw that Lin Nianhe was the only one who had not finished his meal. Thinking that what they were going to discuss had little to do with her, he said:
"Our educated youth team cooks in pairs, rotating every day. Comrade Wang Xue and Comrade Fu Aiguo don't know how to cook. One is responsible for washing dishes and the other is responsible for carrying water. You can just be divided into two groups and start tomorrow. Let’s rotate.”
The old educated youth named Yu Xiangqin glanced at Lin Nianhe and the others with his eyes raised, and said in a sharp voice: "Sun Guanghui, did you miscalculate? There are five of them, how can they be divided into two groups? Washing dishes is Wang Xue's job, and she can wash them cleanly. , I don’t dare to change people casually.”
Yu Xiangqin was talking about the five new people, but her eyes kept wandering on Lin Nianhe's face.
In her opinion, this squeamish guy obviously doesn't know how to cook, and must be trying to steal Wang Xue's dishwashing job.
Lin Nianhe swallowed the steamed buns in his mouth and said in a hoarse voice, "I don't want to be a partner."
As soon as she said these words, the faces of several male educated youths suddenly filled with deep disappointment.
Lin Nianhe didn't care about them. His eyes swept over Yu Xiangqin's face and landed on Sun Guanghui: "Comrade Sun, I don't have cornmeal. Is it okay for me to get food stamps and money for this meal?"
The cornmeal in the space is finer than the cornmeal that Comrade Lao Lin has ground three times. If you take it out, you are looking for trouble.
Just as Sun Guanghui was about to nod, Yu Xiangqin sneered: "Hey, Lin Zhiqiang is not very young, but he is very clever. He hooked up with Sun Guanghui not long after he entered the house."
No matter how dull Sun Guanghui was, he could still hear the thorn in these words. His face turned red and he glared at Yu Xiangqin: "Comrade Yu Xiangqin! Don't talk nonsense!"
Yu Xiangqin rolled her eyes, her mean look exactly like that of the most mischievous old lady in the village: "What did I say? Do you think everyone is blind?"
She pointed one finger at Lin Nianhe and trembled twice, as if she wanted to poke the tip of her nose through the air.
"Aren't you the one who helped her carry firewood to make room for her? Aren't you the one who showed her the way? Hey, there is a clear sky in front of the door in broad daylight. You dare to do it and are you still afraid of people saying it?"
