In the educated youth restaurant, Wen Lan kept mumbling while choosing vegetables:
"You two really give me a new surprise every day - every day you are more rubbish than the day before. Others are more and more capable as they live. Why are you two women the other way around? You are usually so smart, why can't you be like this? Do you want to learn from that good guy?"
"Especially you - Meizi, what do you think is wrong with you? Hezi is a waste, why are you a waste too?"
Wang Shumei: "...?"
This shouldn't be referring to Sang scolding Huai, right? Probably not?
Lin Nianhe: "...?"
What does it mean to call her trash normal? Why is it normal?
But Lin Nianhe was also a little curious: "Yes, Sister Shumei, the most important thing I have done in the past two months is sitting. What's wrong with you?"
Her parents let her sit when she wanted to work at home, and Su Yuncheng asked her to sit when she wanted to ride a bicycle when going out. Even when she was studying in the machine factory, her master would throw her a small ponytail every day and ask her to find a cool place to sit.
If you sit for a long time, you will realize a very serious thing - sitting is indeed more comfortable than standing.
But Wang Shumei...
Wang Shumei's expression was not good. She lightly beat her legs and shook her head: "I've been a little tired lately."
The family was separated as soon as she entered the house. On New Year's Eve, her eldest sister-in-law gave birth to a baby. She took care of the confinement child from the first day of the new year, and then seamlessly took care of Wang Xiaoxiao.
This month has been exhausting both physically and mentally, and even the most energetic person cannot bear it.
Lin Nianhe wanted to go back and get some vitamins for Wang Shumei, but his legs still hurt. She said, "Wait a minute. I'll take a break and get you some vitamins to relieve fatigue."
"Okay." Wang Shumei yawned and rubbed her eyes again, "I've been really tired lately."
Wen Lan happened to come out and didn't say anything when she heard Wang Shumei's words, but there was an extra plate of scrambled eggs on the lunch table. After school in the evening, Wen Lan went to find Widow Zhao to exchange for a chicken.
In response to this, Sister Lan tried to express her dissatisfaction with a vicious voice: "Eat quickly, don't expect me to pick you two up by bike every day!"
…
Perhaps because the textbooks cannot be taken home, the students have been extremely enthusiastic about learning recently, and they even competed in private to see who could memorize all the texts.
This phenomenon is jokingly called the "bookstore effect" by Lin Nianhe - only when the book is in the store will people want to read it. After buying it home, it will most likely be shelved and become a heavy ornament full of literary and artistic atmosphere.
No one thought that such protective measures would arouse the students' thirst for knowledge, but the teachers were happy to see the results. Principal Wu took this opportunity to rectify the study style of the village primary school.
Lin Nianhe began to observe her students, from their reactions during class to their changes after class, taking notes bit by bit, trying to deepen her understanding of them.
This is a long process. After all, there are barriers between the worlds of adults and children, and rushing in eagerly is not a good idea.
As time passed, Lin Nianhe went to town once a week, met with Wang Xiao and the director of the planning factory, and then called Minister Huang to report on the work. Samples of foreign trade products are made one by one, half of which are screened out and will not appear in their product catalogues, while a hundred pieces of each selected one will be made and reserved for the Spring Fair.
Wen Lan and Wang Shumei are not idle either. They were asked by Lin Nianhe to go to the Spring Fair together. Now Wang Shumei is learning English with Niu Wa and the tape recorder every day. According to Wang Xiaoxiao, her sister talks in English at night and can also use English is cursed.
Wen Lan was busy making clothes for several people, which made her blush and her heart skip a beat. She kept saying that if she wore such a capitalist skirt, she would definitely be beaten to death.
The Spring Fair lasted for one month, and Lin Nianhe gave Wen Lan a hundred skirt designs and fabrics. In addition, there were Wang Xiao's Chinese tunic suit and Niuwa's clothes who were traveling with them.
The day Lin Nianhe dumped all the fabric drawings into Wen Lan's house, Sister Lan chased her with a broom for half an hour.
Later, Aunt Zhao stepped forward and together with Aunt Wang found the best tailors from all over the country to share this big job with Wen Lan.
This move saved Wen Lan from danger and also saved Lin Nianhe's life.
In the midst of intensive preparations, time flew by and in the blink of an eye it was time to set off in early April.
Because three teachers had to leave, the village primary school adjusted the handover of substitute teachers a week ago. The physical education class was taken over by Feng Wei. He was already very experienced in taking the children to practice boxing, so there was no need to worry; the Chinese class was taken over by Zhou Chujiang. , he is a Chinese teacher, teaching primary school students without any pressure, and he was the first to support the improvement of teaching materials, and he is full of enthusiasm for teaching.
Principal Wu originally wanted to take the algebra class himself, but Su Yun finally took over the job. Principal Wu was a little worried at first, but after listening to him lecture a few times, he agreed wholeheartedly, and even said that if Su Yuncheng no longer wants to be a public security officer, becoming a teacher would also be a good choice.
The village boy was not confused because of the three of them leaving, but they themselves were slightly confused——
"Lin Nianhe, come here, explain to me how you brought these old things here?"
Outside the train station, Wen Lan looked at the eighteen huge boxes, covering her face in despair.
Wen Lan could understand the many clothes and samples. After all, it was the spring festival, so she could understand bringing more things. But what she absolutely couldn't understand was that Lin Nianhe actually brought a palm-sized clay stove and a tea set! What is she going to do? Are you having a good time?
Sister Lan looked at her four companions, a working man, a young man, and two losers. Who could she count on?
"Sister Lan, stay still and don't panic," Lin Nianhe patted her shoulder to comfort her, "I've asked, Xishi Steel Factory and Jingcheng Machinery Factory are taking the same train as us. As long as we can carry our luggage onto the train, we can Don’t worry about how to move it down.”
Wen Lan: "Then tell me, how do we get them on the train?"
Lin Nianhe looked at Wang Xiao as if nothing was wrong: "Uncle Wang, come on. You must be more familiar with the people at the train station than me."
Wang Xiao was wearing a woolen coat that he would only wear on the most important occasions. His white hair was meticulously combed, and his pursed lips showed his nervousness.
"Ahem," Wang Xiao nodded, "Yes, I'm very familiar with them."
Lin Nianhe saw that he didn't move after he finished speaking, so he could only continue to remind: "Then please ask an acquaintance to borrow a cart and let us carry the luggage into the car."
"Oh, okay, okay!"
Wang Xiao came to his senses and hurriedly went to find his acquaintance.
The four people looked at his back and fell silent at the same time.
Niu Wa: "Uncle Wang has passed away."
Lin Nianhe: "Well, don't tell me."
Wen Lan: "What happened to him?"
Wang Shumei: "Probably nervous."
"Why are you nervous before you arrive?"
"To be honest, I didn't even sleep last night."
"I had a good dream last night. It was all about small money."
"..."
