Now that I have money, my food and clothing are different, and I feel like a different person.
Especially seeing her sitting in the back of such a luxurious car, her eyes widened.
Everyone only knew that Lin Sisi's biological parents were very rich, but they didn't expect that they were so rich.
In their village, it is already a big deal for anyone to have a bicycle or motorcycle at home.
At this moment, everyone was sighing, and their envious eyes fell on Lin Sisi.
Feeling the envious or jealous looks, Lin Sisi raised her chin high. She lowered the car window deliberately, for fear that others would not see her beauty.
At this moment, vanity was also greatly satisfied.
On the other side, Si Nian and Zhou Yueshen had also arrived at the door of Lin's house.
The Lin family's house is even worse. It is a loess tiled house with mottled walls and even cracks. The tiles on the roof are yellowed and there are holes in many places. Maybe they are reluctant to replace them with new ones, so they just use tape bags to press them down. Above, they can still make do with a few rocks, which shows how poor the conditions of this family are.
Rural houses, like clothes, have been mended and mended for decades.
The door outside didn't even have a lock, there was just a wooden stick on the back of the door.
After going to the big bungalow of Zhou Yueshen's house, and at Si's house at the beginning of the journey through the book, Si Nian actually didn't feel much difference in this era.
It wasn't until she saw the Lin family that she knew the true appearance of rural areas in remote mountainous areas that were difficult to develop.
Although she herself grew up in a rural area, she was not like this.
Zhou Yueshen looked calm and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Soon, someone's footsteps approached, and a female voice sounded: "Who is it?"
As the wooden door was opened, a woman wearing a patchwork cotton jacket appeared in front of them.
The woman was still a little gray-faced, and was startled when she saw the two of them. But when she saw Zhou Yueshen, her face paled obviously, and she started to stutter when she spoke: "Zhou, Comrade Zhou."
Zhou Yueshen nodded slightly and asked in a low voice, "Is Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin at home?"
The woman shook her head: "My parents-in-law have gone to the fields. I, I will call them back right now."
"Quick, please come in." She said, quickly making way to let the two of them enter the house.
He didn't dare to ask more questions, but when his eyes fell on Si Nian, he was a little confused, but he didn't dare to look further.
He hurriedly shouted to the people in the house: "Xiao Feng Xiao Yu, go to the fields and call your parents back."
Seeing her bewildered expression, Si Nian guessed that this person should be her eldest brother's wife, Zhou Suisui.
Although she has never met this family, she still knows the general characters of the plot.
The Lin family has a total of four children. These days, every family has a lot of children. After all, in the days before contraception, every family would just give birth to a baby regardless of whether the conditions were good or not.
In another two years, the country began to implement family planning, promoting late marriage, late childbearing, fewer children, and eugenics, thereby controlling the population in a planned way.
The eldest brother of the Lin family is not very young either. His name is Lin Xiao. He is twenty-three years old and married with no children.
His wife is from the same village and her name is Zhou Suisui.
Next is Lin Sisi, who is the same age as Si Nian and has just turned eighteen.
The two younger brothers are twins, latecomers, both only ten years old.
They are called Xiaofeng Xiaoyu respectively.
The two children were in first grade when they were nine years old, and now they are ten years old and in second grade. The Lin family allowed Lin Sisi to attend high school, which shows that they still value their daughter very much.
However, when Lin Sisi knew that she was not her biological daughter, she immediately left the Lin family and returned to the arms of her biological parents.
Suddenly, Si Nian saw two young boys with similar looks and gray faces running out of the house. After looking at them curiously, they hurried out.
The genes of the Lin family have to be said to be very good, otherwise Si Nian would not be so beautiful. The two younger brothers are also very handsome at a young age, but they are too late to go to school and cannot keep up. I am afraid that the future will be the same. It’s not easy to walk.
The Lin family is so poor not only because of the large population, but also because the two adults are not in good health. The father is lame and the mother has asthma and cannot do heavy work.
All the work of the family fell on Lin Xiao.
So Lin Xiao got married relatively late, otherwise he wouldn't have had children yet.
The family lived on just a few acres of land. Lin Xiao couldn't go out to work even if he wanted to, because his two younger brothers were still too young. If anything happened, there wouldn't be anyone in the family who could take care of things.
There are rumors outside that the Lin family is greedy for the three thousand yuan. Since they are greedy, they shouldn't be so miserable.
Si Nian withdrew his scrutinizing eyes, and Zhou Suisui came over with two bowls of water and handed them to the two of them.
She wiped her hands on her trouser legs with an uneasy look on her face, because in her opinion, Zhou Yueshen came to ask for money.
Speaking of which, the Lin family was also unlucky. As soon as they got the three thousand yuan gift, they learned that Lin Sisi was not her biological child.
As a result, when I went to the city to look for my biological daughter, she was not even allowed to see her. When the family came back, they found that their house had been ransacked and three thousand yuan had been stolen. No one would believe it now. Everyone insisted that they couldn't find a daughter to marry and were reluctant to part with the money, so they found an excuse to do so.
Later, Lin Sisi left, and her biological daughter went to see them several times and refused to see them. The Lin family also understood that the child must not want to come back and live such a hard life, and they did not force it.
Not to mention that the child was gone, he still owed a huge sum of three thousand.
They really don't have the face to meet people, and they have been raising money everywhere recently, thinking of returning the money first.
This incident was such a shock that Lin Laoer and his wife seemed to have aged ten years overnight.
After Lin's mother stopped taking the medicine, her asthma attacks became more and more frequent.
Father Lin couldn't sleep all night because of his leg injury and rheumatism in the middle of the night.
In order to repay the money, Lin Xiao went to the city to work as a porter, and had to walk three or four hours back to help with the work at night.
The whole family has been in a haze during this period, and life is difficult.
But no one complained at all.
Unexpectedly, what was supposed to come came anyway.
"Zhou, Comrade Zhou, I, we didn't mean not to pay you back. Now that we have collected more money, we will definitely pay you back." Zhou Suisui stammered.
Zhou Yueshen paused and looked at Si Nian.
Si Nian was really hot, so he poured a bowl of water into his mouth. It was a bit sweet, and it seemed that there was a little sugar in the water. When he heard this, he asked doubtfully: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean, three thousand yuan?" Gone?"
Zhou Suisui thought that Si Nian and Zhou Yueshen came here to ask for money, but didn't think much about it because they had never seen this sister-in-law when they went to the city before.
So he blushed in shame, "Maybe you won't believe that we are not greedy for that betrothal gift. It was stolen by someone. We really can't get it back. There is really nothing we can do..."
