Lin Nianhe knew and guessed that Niu Wa was rich.
Uncle Niu has considered everything for Niu Baby, how could he not leave some money for him?
She never told the truth because she knew how important it was for insecure children to have money at their own disposal.
She never thought that Niu Wa would take out his own treasury in this situation.
Principal Wu was also surprised. She looked at Niu Wa, stretched out her hand tremblingly, and rubbed his head.
Niu Wa raised the corners of her mouth, and her big black and white eyes were full of seriousness: "Sister Lin, don't worry, I will take good care of the principal's mother."
Principal Wu finally felt relieved after hearing the child's soft words.
Lin Nianhe scraped the bridge of Niu Wa's nose, chuckled and said, "Well, the principal will leave it to you."
"Um!"
Niu Wa nodded vigorously.
This was the first time he had been entrusted with something important.
"Teacher Lin? Are you looking for me?"
Wu Genmao's voice came from outside.
Lin Nianhe squeezed Principal Wu's hand again and said to her: "You have a good rest. I will get these two children back for you today. Dare you not go to school honestly? You have rebelled against them."
"good."
There were tears in Principal Wu's eyes.
She held Lin Nianhe's finger and said softly: "Nianhe, thank you."
Meeting Lin Nianhe was the second luckiest thing in her life.
The first lucky thing was meeting her husband that year.
"Don't just say thank you. Show your gratitude with actions. For example, can you return the shovel to Aunt Wang first?"
"Oh, I won't thank you anymore. Go quickly and sort things out, or I'll shoot you."
"Okay, let's go now."
Lin Nianhe pulled Wen Lan out of the hut and closed the door.
Beside the door, Wu Genmao has two fishes in his left hand and a bucket of small river shrimps in his right hand. If there is a fat baby on his back, it will feel like returning to his parents' home.
He didn't know what happened, so he only announced the good news to Lin Nianhe: "Teacher Lin, Brother Xie is really good. The fish was hit right when he poked it. We can eat it to our heart's content!"
Lin Nianhe waved his hand and motioned for him to put his things down.
Wu Genmao put down the fish and shrimp and followed Lin Nianhe out with a fishy smell.
After leaving the school, Lin Nianhe stopped and said to Wu Genmao: "Go to the black market in the town and find a boy named Zhang Dahu, eight or nine years old."
Wu Genmao nodded repeatedly: "What then?"
"Then bring him back and don't beat him." Lin Nianhe was a little worried, "Can you do it?"
"It can be done! It must be done!" Wu Genmao promised, patting his chest, "We are amateurs at catching fish, but I am an expert at finding people and people to engage in the black market!"
Lin Nianhe gave him the five yuan he had just given to Niu Wa: "You have the final say on what to do with the matter. There is only one thing you can do. Bring him back before dinner today."
"Okay, no problem!"
Wu Genmao was so confident that he ran out.
Lin Nianhe had no doubt about his ability to run thousands of miles.
This is a man who can chase cars on two legs, so it would be too much for her to worry about him.
Facts have proved that Lin Nianhe's reassurance was not unfounded.
She and Wen Lan were about to leave, and Wang Shumei, who went to call Wu Genmao, rushed back.
Wang Shumei came to them and asked, "What's going on?"
Although Wen Lan kept busy, she didn't know the cause and effect of the matter, and looked at Lin Nianhe with doubtful eyes.
Lin Nianhe explained the matter concisely and concisely, and said to Wang Shumei: "Sister Shumei, please stay in the school. I don't know what the principal is going to do, so you can keep an eye on it."
"Okay, then you two should be careful. Why don't you ask Aunt Wang to go with you?" Wang Shumei suggested.
Sister Lan rolled up her sleeves: "No need, I'm here!"
Wang Shumei looked at Lin Nianhe and signaled her with her eyes: Keep an eye on the person, but don't kill a few.
Lin Nianhe nodded silently, pushed out the bicycle, and sat on the back seat consciously.
Wen Lan rode vigorously, but within ten minutes, they reached Jiuli Brigade.
Wen Lan stopped at the entrance of the village, turned around and asked Lin Nianhe: "Hezi, which one is it?"
Lin Nianhe pointed the way directly: "Go to Uncle He's house first."
"okay."
He Aimin's right eye kept twitching today, which made him upset and always felt like something was going to happen.
"Is Uncle He at home?"
When Lin Nianhe's voice came from outside, the enamel jar in He Aimin's hand fell to the ground.
He shuffled off the kang, his broken leg was lame and he could not walk smoothly.
"Teacher Lin and Teacher Wen are here, come in quickly." Aunt He greeted them, "Come, your uncle is in the room."
Some time ago, they often followed Principal Wu to the Jiuli Brigade. Every time they came, they never forgot to sit down at He's house and have a few words. Aunt He was very familiar with them.
"Thank you, aunt."
Lin Nianhe and Wen Lan entered He's house. He Aimin didn't wait for them to sit down and asked, "What's going on? What happened?"
"It's a bit unexpected," Lin Nianhe said straight to the point, "Uncle He, what's going on with Shen Cailan?"
When He Aimin heard Shen Cailan's name, his brows suddenly wrinkled.
He sighed and said, "That child can't go."
These seven short words hide endless sorrow.
Lin Nianhe nodded: "I heard from Brother Jianjun that he is going to get married, right? But Uncle He, this child is only fourteen, how can he get married? Let's not mention the moral aspect. This matter is illegal first!"
Today is 75 years, and the legal age for marriage is 20 for men and 18 for women.
However, in rural areas, many people do not obtain a certificate, and even if they get married after drinking, neighbors and villagers will rarely report it.
He Aimin twitched the corner of his mouth, lowered his eyes and did not look at Lin Nianhe. He only said: "Teacher Lin, it is like this in the countryside. No one cares about it and can't control it."
He is the captain of the brigade and is in charge of production and mobilization, but he cannot control consensual marriages.
Old God Lin Nianhe took a sip of water and said, "Uncle He, I don't care how many such things happen and how others deal with them, but when I encounter it, Shen Cailan is a student of our school, so I have to take care of it."
He Aimin was a little anxious because of her stubbornness.
He wiped his face and couldn't help but raise his voice: "Shen Cailan has two younger brothers. Her father died when the younger one was born. Her mother broke her head a few days ago and had no money to send her to the health center. She is still on the kang. She's lying down, if Cailan doesn't find a way to survive, how can her mother survive?"
Hearing He Aimin's words, Wen Lan's eyes suddenly turned red.
She missed her eldest brother and sister. Her family also has many children. The eldest brother dropped out of school after elementary school to work in a factory. The eldest sister stopped studying after only reaching the third grade. She took care of several younger brothers and sisters at home, and later got married early.
Wen Lan felt sad. She calculated that she had lit lamps and boiled oil to make six woolen coats in the past few days. Each one was fifty yuan, so she could get three hundred yuan.
She tugged on Lin Nianhe's sleeve and said, "Nianhe, I have..."
Lin Nianhe understood what she wanted to say and shook his head at her: "We'll talk about it later. Let's go to Shen Cailan's house first."
Seeing that they were still going, He Aimin felt helpless: "Teacher Lin, Teacher Wen, if you go now, aren't you going to stab the child in the heart?"
"We went to help her solve the problem." Lin Nianhe said soothingly, "Uncle He, you must also know that Cailan's marriage can only solve her temporary predicament. What if something happens again in the future? She can get married again. once?"
He Aimin opened his mouth but said nothing.
Of course he knew this was not a good way out, but this was the only way they could think of.
Lin Nianhe raised the corners of his lips slightly and said to him: "Your leg is still injured, so don't follow us. Please show the way and we will go take a look."
He Aimin had a very good impression of Lin Nianhe. Hearing the sonorous words of her words, he felt more expectant in his heart. He pointed out the location of the Shen family by the window and watched them leave.
In addition to the He family gate, Wen Lan couldn't wait to ask Lin Nianhe: "Hezi, I still have fourteen and six dollars, do you think I can treat Cailan Niang?"
Lin Nianhe looked at her and smacked his tongue softly: "It's not easy. Sister Lan, you are reluctant to spend your own money, but you want to use it to save a stranger?"
Tailor Wen was full of confidence: "I have made six woolen coats!"
Lin Nianhe: "What if you can't sell it? You won't have a penny."
Wen Lan: "...!"
