The Eldest Sister is Like a Stepmother [60’s]

After listening to Lin Yiyi’s words, Jin Yu thought a little. He is not someone who can’t be flexible, otherwise he wouldn’t support family separation, so he quickly understood the meaning of Lin Yiyi’s words.

the next day

Jin-Woo has the habit of training for a long time, even if something happens occasionally, if one day is delayed, it will continue the next day. On this day, he got up early, and Lin Yiyi was still huddled and dreaming. After he got up, he pulled the quilt tightly so that the cold wind would not enter the quilt and freeze her.

He went out of the room, and when he was washing, he heard a movement behind him, and it was Lin Sanjun who got up. Lin Sanjun looked at Xiao Yu and hesitated for a while, then walked to Xiao Yu’s side: “Brother-in-law, can I exercise with you?” Because he didn’t talk much, especially with Xiao Yu, he was a little nervous for a while. , but there is firmness in his eyes.

Jin Yu was a little surprised: “Yes, but it’s useless to exercise for a day or two. You have to keep exercising. If you only have one or two days, you might as well lie back in the bed.”

Lin Sanjun: “I will persevere.”

Jin-Woo: “That’s fine. How did you think of exercising?”

Lin Sanjun said politely: “I want to be a soldier, a PLA, and a police officer.”

Jin Yu was very surprised by this answer: “How come you have this idea?”

Lin Sanjun: “Because being a soldier and a police officer can be like a brother-in-law, and can keep the family fed.” It can also save my sister from being bullied. But this sentence, Lin Sanjun silently hid in his heart. The 12-year-old half-eldest is not a fool, he has his own ideas.

Jin Yu patted Lin Sanjun on the shoulder: “Ambition, good work.”

Lin Sanjun looked at Jin Yu’s hand on his shoulder, and his eyes slowly lit up.

Xiao Yu took Lin Sanjun out of the house, ran to the foot of the mountain beside the county town, and then ran back, considering that Lin Sanjun ran for the first time, he slowed down and shortened the distance.

When they ran to the house, Lin Yiyi had already cooked sweet potato rice porridge and boiled eggs. There were three boiled eggs in total, half one for each person.

During the meal, Lin Yiyi said to the younger brothers of the Lin family: “The four armies of the big army, look at the three armies, if you say exercise, just exercise, you have to learn from the three armies.”

Lin Sanjun and Lin Sijun pretended not to hear, they knew when Lin Sanjun got up, but they couldn’t get up.

Lin Sanjun ate with his head down and was praised by his sister that he was in a good mood.

After eating a good meal, Lin Yiyi started to wash her clothes and washed them with hot water. Since winter, she has always washed clothes with hot water, and she can’t stand cold water. However, because of this, the firewood that was similar to the original became insufficient. Lin Yiyi looked at the coal and muttered, “This coal is not burned.”

Lin Sanjun heard it, and when Lin Yiyi washed her clothes and went to write the manuscript, he went to Lin Dajun.

Lin Dajun: “You said picking up firewood? Where are you going?”

Lin Sanjun said: “When my brother-in-law and I were running in the morning, we went to the mountain over the county seat. I know where it is.”

Lin Dajun: “Okay, let’s go pick up firewood.” Anyway, when they came to the county seat before, they all brought firewood with them, so it’s no problem to pick up firewood now.

So, Lin Dajun, Lin Sanjun, and Lin Sijun took the fifth brother Lin to pick up firewood. Lin Yiyi didn’t stop them. It was good for the younger brothers to be motivated and diligent, but she told them not to go to dangerous places, just pick them up at the foot of the mountain and take good care of the fifth brother Lin.

a month later

January 3, 1961 in the Gregorian calendar, November 17, 1960 in the lunar calendar, there is still one and a half months before the Chinese New Year.

Early in the morning, Xiao Bin and Xiao Wu came, and even Xiao Yu, who usually went to exercise early, didn’t get up.

Xiao Wu: “The second child… the second child…” Standing at the door of the courtyard, he shouted dryly.

When Jin Yu turned on the light, he also looked at the wall clock, it was only after three o’clock, he thought that the big brother must be on his way after one o’clock in the middle of the night. As a result, after opening the door, they saw Xiao Bin was there, both of them were carrying the baskets, honestly.

Jin Yu hurriedly let them in, and at the same time he saw the chicken feathers in the basket. In mid-December, he went back to the country once, and knew that the stove pits in the two rooms were all chicken feathers, leeks and green onions. Because these things grow fast and they are long. I haven’t been back this month, and I was planning to go back in a few days to deliver meat and Fuqiang powder to the elders by the way, but I didn’t expect them to come.

“Big brother and third brother are hungry all the way, I’ll get you something to eat.” Lin Yiyi also got up.

Seeing Lin Yiyi getting up, Xiao Yu said, “Go to sleep, I’ll do it.”

Xiao Wu also said: “The second daughter-in-law, go to bed, there is a second child here.” In fact, he was also a little embarrassed to face this sister-in-law. It was really ugly that his mother-in-law made things too ugly, but he also I don’t know how to manage my mother-in-law, after all, his mother-in-law is also for their small family.

Lin Yiyi said, “It’s alright, it’s all up.” She took out the leftover rice from the cupboard. She cooked too much yesterday. In fact, it was cold, so she cooked a little more rice every night, so that the second If you wake up and cook rice porridge, it will boil quickly. Lin Yiyi poured the rice into the pot, and added the hot water from the kettle to boil it, so that it can be faster, and Jin Yu set it on fire.

Then Lin Yiyi looked at the back basket: “This dish is really fresh.”

Xiao Wudao: “We just don’t know how to deal with it. We have to rely on my younger siblings. My mother said that younger siblings and younger siblings also need money to buy vegetables in the county town. After we plant them, I will bring some to you when we come to the county town.”

Xiao Bin said: “Yes, yes, if the second sister-in-law likes it, take it quickly. We ate it at home once, and it was delicious.” Just once, they were reluctant to eat it.

Lin Yiyi was also not polite: “Well, I’ll just cook a vegetable and rice for the eldest brother and the third brother later.” After speaking, she took out about two catties and gave one of them to Xiao Yu, “Brother Yu, give this to Xiao Yu. Wash this dish.”

Jin-woo took it and went to wash.

This kind of chicken feathers grown by Xiao’s family is actually called cabbage, Shanghai green, and small cabbage. It is actually a variant of cabbage. Its leaves are green like cabbage, but the stem is white like cabbage, but it is more conventional. Called it, called it chicken feathers. Chicken feathers grow very fast, and can mature in 40-50 days in spring, not to mention on the stove, where it is particularly warm, it will grow faster.

Lin Yiyi asked, “How many kilograms does this bag have?” There is a lot of chicken feathers in a pound, because chicken feathers are small and light, and the weight is similar to wild vegetables.

Xiao Wudao: “It’s only 20 pounds, and the family can take it three more times. This time, let’s take a look first. If it’s good, set a time and take the rest.”

Xiao Wu: “The seeds that were harvested this time have been put down again.”

Lin Yiyi said: “That’s it, is the family going to exchange money or not?”

Xiao Wu: “Grandpa said let the second child decide.”

Lin Yiyi: “Then let’s change the food.” The famine will continue. The Xiao family now has 10 catties of food a month. The Xiao family only has one bowl of rice for each meal, which is still soup and water, so the food is replaced to fill their stomachs. Most importantly, if you are healthy, you can say anything.

Xiao Yu washed the vegetables and came in: “Well, change the food.” After saying that, he gave the chicken feathers to Lin Yiyi.

Lin Yiyi took the chicken feathers and threw them directly into the pot without cutting them, and then added a little salt. She said to Xiao Yu again: “Let’s take the things to Brother Wang, the eldest brother and the third brother can eat when they are ready, and sleep on the bed here.” The bed in the kitchen has not been removed, because The area here is enough, and the children usually play here.

Jin-Woo: “Okay.”

With that said, he carried the basket, Lin Yiyi took the quilt to the bed, and the couple went out.

…

Brother Wang received Lin Yiyi very warmly, just like when he bought her bean sprouts recipe.

Lin Yiyi said, “Brother Wang, how about this chicken feather dish?”

Brother Wang said: “Okay, it’s fresh. It looks like it’s just picked. People are freezing to death in this weather, and I can still receive this chicken feather dish, which really surprises me. But looking at the goods… the rules of this trade, I don’t think so. How did you come here, one by one girl, how long can the supply of goods be maintained?”

Lin Yiyi thought about it on the way here. She and Xiao Yu also discussed it together. Each time 40 pounds, the family’s goods can be delivered three times. After three times, the second batch will be fine, but in order to prevent accidents, she said: ” Once a fortnight, that’s 40 pounds at a time.”

Once a fortnight, Brother Wang was already very pleasantly surprised: “Apart from chicken feathers, is there anything else?”

Lin Yiyi said: “That’s it, this one doesn’t pick a place, and it grows fast.”

Brother Wang said: “Forget it, 40 pounds in half a month is not enough to sell. How do you want to trade with your daughter? Money or things?”

Lin Yiyi: “Just the food, but I want to change some rice. How do I change the rice?”

Brother Wang thought for a while: “Coarse grains are one to one, and rice is two to one.”

Lin Yiyi said, “That one basket for coarse grains and one basket for rice.” After all, there are elderly and children in the Xiao family, and it’s not good to eat sweet potatoes all the time.

Brother Wang: “Hey, good.”

After changing the food, Brother Wang helped Lin Yiyi to the door. He knew that Lin Yiyi’s man was waiting outside. He met the man and nodded to each other without saying hello.

Jin Yu put food on his back and went back with Lin Yiyi.

When they got home, Xiao Wu and Xiao Bin had already eaten and washed the dishes, but they didn’t fall asleep, and they didn’t get this thing back. They were uneasy.

Fortunately, after a while, Jin Yu and Lin Yiyi came back.

When the brothers saw the food in Jin-woo’s basket, their eyes were red. Finally, they had food.

Xiao Yu said: “Each basket is 5 catties of rice and 10 catties of coarse grains. The grandparents and parents at home are getting older, so they also need to eat good food. Xiaorui and Xiaozhu are still young, so don’t break the rice soup.”

Xiao Wudao: “I know, I know.”

Xiao Yu: “Big brother, it stands to reason that my younger brother shouldn’t tell you these things, but you have to take care of the affairs of the small family, don’t always let the children go to their parents to eat and eat their food, What do they eat?”

Xiao Wu: “No, no, we have food now, and I will take care of it.” As for his brother’s words, he did not dare to object, nor would he object. His temperament is that of a good old man. To put it bluntly, he just works and doesn’t want to care about anything.

When the food arrived, Xiao Wu and Xiao Bin didn’t want to sleep here anymore. The two of them carried the food and were about to leave. It was already past four o’clock, and it was just right when they returned to the countryside at six or seven o’clock. When they went, Lin Yiyi gave them a few tomatoes and a cauliflower. This time, it was picked from the rattan, not from the system store.

Datang Production Brigade

The Xiao family has not slept well since 12:00 in the middle of the night, except for the two little ones. Xiao Wu and Xiao Bin went to the county seat, and they didn’t know what was going on. Boiled and boiled, and finally survived until dawn. They all looked forward to the stars and the moon at the door of their house, and finally, they were brought to hope.

Qi Spinach was the first to go over and asked Xiao Wu, “How is it?”

Qin Xiangju: “Take it easy, everyone knows what you want to make trouble?”

Qi Spinach hurriedly covered his mouth, but his eyes were looking into the basket.

Grandpa Xiao: “Come to the main room, boss, tell me everything.”

Xiao Wu: “Hey…” It was also he who repeated the matter, including Lin Yiyi cooking for them, etc. “And these tomatoes and cauliflower, the second daughter-in-law asked us to bring them, because they are residents of this month. The benefits haven’t been collected yet, so the flour and meat will be brought when the second child comes back over the weekend.”

Grandma Xiao said: “This child, why do you need to come back specially to deliver meat and flour, even if it is not delivered, we will not say anything.?” You must know that the eldest and the third have not provided them with food for the elderly for the time being, but the second The flour and meat are not broken every month.

Grandpa Xiao said: “The second one said, don’t say anything about growing vegetables. Does he have other arrangements?”

Xiao Wudao: “Yes.”

Grandpa Xiao: “Okay, I understand. Let’s not talk about it for now. In the future, according to what the second child said, we will send chicken feathers every two weeks, so that we can also receive it here. As for the food, we will divide it first. The rice is 2.5 catties per room, and the coarse grains are 5 catties per room.” Twice a month, these grains add up to a lot.

Grandma Xiao: “Let’s also eat that rice porridge and chicken feathers for lunch. Didn’t the boss say that the second wife’s cooking is delicious?”

Qin Xiangju: “Hey, okay.”

In modern times, this practice is called vegetable pickled rice, but in this day and age, rice is expensive, and everyone is reluctant to do it.

Qi Spinach wanted to tell her parents about this method, but Grandpa Xiao said that this matter will be put on hold for now, and she will not dare to disobey when Xiao Yu comes back on the weekend.

The time soon came to Saturday. On Saturday afternoon, Jin Yu took a half-day leave from the Public Security Bureau and rode his bicycle back to the countryside. However, he first went to the Sunshine Commune where the brigade was located.

As the deputy director of the county public security bureau, Director Yang was not qualified to receive him. Even President Cheng from the commune was very nervous when he heard that Xiao Yu was coming. The officials of the commune and the county were not on the same level.

President Cheng: “Deputy Director Xiao, welcome to the commune.”

Xiao Yu: “Hello, President Cheng, I came to the commune today to tell you something good for the people. It can alleviate the hunger and famine of the people.” In fact, Xiao Yu could also go directly to the county government, but he felt that It is more appropriate to come to the Sunshine Commune, and the commune will report to the county government, which can also save face for the commune.

When President Cheng heard this, he asked curiously, “What’s a good thing?” He was most surprised to hear that it was related to the common people.

Jin-Woo took out the plan he carried with him: “Please see.”

President Cheng looked at it seriously, afraid that he would miss every word. After reading it, he knew that the Xiao family had come to a conclusion. He was very pleasantly surprised: “Can I go to Xiao’s family to see it?” It is completely permissible to use crops to solve the food problem. It would be great if that were possible. His happy eyes turned red. As a cadre, what was he most afraid of? What he is most afraid of is the current situation. Every time he hears how miserable the people under his jurisdiction are, he feels uncomfortable, but he can’t do anything about it.

So, Xiao Yu, President Cheng, the secretary of the commune, and Director Yang went to Xiao’s house together.

The Xiao family was taken aback when they saw so many big people. Especially when they came in from the village, some of the villagers recognized the identity of President Cheng and hurried to tell the captain. So after a while, the captain and the others came.

At this moment, Jin Yuzhen took President Cheng and the others to look at the stove pit, and the captain followed him in, and saw the chicken feathers inside, ah yo, my mother… saliva is coming out.

Xiao Yu: “Mom, go get a basket and let President Cheng bring it today. They have to report it.”

Qin Xiangju said happily: “Hey.”

President Cheng, Director Yang and the commune secretary have already picked a leaf of the chickpeas and put them in their mouths to eat a few bites. It is the taste of the vegetables, fragrant and sweet.

Then, President Cheng and the others left with a basket of chicken feathers, and Xiao Yu stayed at Xiao’s house and said the matter again: “This matter can benefit the people, so I will call the shots and report the matter.”

Grandpa Xiao was very pleased: “Well done, you are the grandson of our Xiao family, well done.”

Xiao Yu said: “I reported this matter in the name of Yi Yi. This is a method she came up with. We Xiao family can’t take possession of it, but no matter who’s name is, it is also our Xiao family’s honor.”

Grandpa Xiao said, “That’s right.” He never thought of taking credit for his grandson’s daughter-in-law.

Xiao Yu: “The captain and grandfather are still waiting outside. Next, let grandpa talk to them, and I will go back to the county. I believe that in a few days, this matter will be implemented, and the commune in the county will be There will be meetings, so our team can get busy first.”

Grandpa Xiao: “Okay, I see.”

After Xiao Yu talked with Grandpa Xiao, he came out and saw the captain and grandfather at the door. They already knew things from Xiao Wu and Xiao Bin, and they also knew that Lin Yiyi came up with this chicken feather. He immediately praised Xiao Yu for marrying a good wife, and praised Grandma Xiao and Qin Xiangju very proud.

In fact, Jin Yu was right in thinking about it. Within a few days, the brigade under the Sunshine Commune knew about it, and everyone started to start a pit. At the same time, the county also reported this matter to the province, because it is not only beneficial to the people in the county, but also to the people of the whole country.

Maybe it’s not just Lin Yiyi who thinks about planting vegetables in a pan, there are people in other places and other people, but…not everyone’s consciousness is the same. Today, if this matter is placed on others, it may not be made public. Everyone thinks that their own family will take advantage of it and make a fortune in silence, but Lin Yiyi is a person who came here in 2020 and will not be greedy for such petty profits, Xiao Yu is from a military background, and in a way, he is more upright than Lin Yiyi.

public security bureau

Xiao Yu has been in the limelight recently, and the whole public security bureau knows about Lin Yiyi. Married **** men in the Public Security Bureau envy Jin Yu for having a good daughter-in-law, and unmarried **** men feel that in the future, when looking for a daughter-in-law, they have to look to the deputy bureau’s sister-in-law. Birth is not important, nor is it important to be a rural person, what matters is a person’s character.

The policeman’s name is Zhang Ming, the **** man who received Lin Yiyi when she went to the Public Security Bureau that day. He hesitated for a while, then went to Jin Yu: “Deputy Bureau, can I ask you one thing?”

Jin-Woo: “Huh?”

Zhang Ming: “Deputy Bureau, does my sister-in-law still have a younger sister? If it’s not my own sister, it doesn’t matter if my cousin is my cousin. I…I want to talk about someone.”

The police next to him listened and laughed.

Jin Yu’s face sank: “…No.” His daughter-in-law is only 15 years old. If she has a sister, cousin or cousin, how old is she? “Only 4 younger brothers.”

When Zhang Ming heard this, he quickly said happily, “I have a younger sister.”

Jin-Woo: “…”

Of course, Lin Yiyi doesn’t know about the matter of the Public Security Bureau. Lin Yiyi is being pulled from the top of her head to her feet by Grandma Wang. Even the parents of her younger brother’s little friends also come to chat with her from time to time. She wants to ask Not even quiet. Some parents are even very happy that their children play with the younger brothers of the Lin family, because they think that Lin Yiyi is upright and smart, and can write manuscripts to make money, which is what the younger brothers of the Lin family said, and they also raise four brothers kindly. Teach them to be polite, so they think the Lin family’s conduct is good.

“Lin Yiyi, is Lin Yiyi there?”

Lin Yiyi was chatting with Grandma Wang and others, and saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a Chinese tunic suit coming, with several people following the man.

Lin Yiyi hurriedly got up: “I am, may I ask you?”

The middle-aged man smiled kindly. He looked at the literary girl in front of him in surprise. Of course, he also knew the situation of Lin Yiyi’s family very well, and the investigation was very clear. One girl brought four younger brothers, and her parents starved to death. Yes, but the girl in front of me is completely different from the situation under investigation. The girl in front of me is suave and looks very well-behaved. According to the investigation, Lin Yiyi should be a rural girl with little knowledge and a bit of honesty. , not the smart girl she is now. Maybe it was changed by marrying the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau.

The middle-aged man stretched out his hand: “Hello Comrade Lin Yiyi, I’m Qian Liang, the secretary of the county magistrate. This incident of planting vegetables in the kitchen pit can ease the food problem of ordinary people across the country. Thank you for your contribution to the country.”

Lin Yiyi hurriedly held Qian Liang’s hand: “Hello, hello, it’s my honor to meet you. The chairman said that women can hold up half the sky, and my meager strength can bring sunshine to the country and the people, and even more so. my honor.”

Qian Liang laughed, she was a literate little girl. Then, he took a bag of things from the person next to him: “This is a reward from our county government, thank you little girl, please continue to be like a little sun in the future, spreading your sunshine for the country and the people.”

Lin Yiyi felt that she seemed to be ridiculed.

Lin Yiyi took the bag: “Wait a minute…” Then, she took a basket from the kitchen and went into the vegetable shed. After a while, she picked a basket of tomatoes and went to another vegetable shed. , picked two cauliflowers and came out, “Here, you must be very busy recently because of the implementation of the stove. This is a vegetable grown by yourself. It will nourish your body without any money.”

Qian Liang was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he had met such a person who “bribes” him in an upright manner. Of course, this is not bribery. Qian Liang took the basket: “Then I’ll be very welcome. I’ll ask someone to bring it to you another day.”

Lin Yiyi: “No, we all weave our own baskets. I have several in my family.” She admitted that she was behaving well.

Qian Liang laughed. In his capacity, he didn’t want to stay here for long, so he left immediately.

However, two people stayed behind: “Hello Comrade Lin Yiyi, my name is Wang Liang, I am a reporter from the County Daily, I wrote the previous article about growing vegetables in the kitchen pit, and I want to make it simple for you. interview, just ask a few words, okay?”

Lin Yiyi said: “Hello, Comrade Wang, I… I was interviewed for the first time, and I was a little nervous. I was afraid of saying bad things.”

Wang Liang said: “Don’t be nervous, just treat this as a chat with friends.”

Lin Yiyi: “Okay, you ask.”

Wang Liang: “Comrade Lin Yiyi, I want to ask you, why do you think about growing vegetables in the kitchen pit?”

When Lin Yiyi heard this, she first lowered her head, then bit her lip hard, and then raised her head firmly: “Actually, when I first started, I didn’t think about growing vegetables in the stove, I thought about my parents, They starved to death because they wanted to save food for our siblings. Especially during that time, I miss them very much. I often think that if our family had enough food, my parents would not starve to death. .

But I know that it is impossible, because it takes land to grow food. Later, the tomatoes and cauliflower in my yard matured more than half a month late. My husband said that because the weather was cold and these vegetables were not fertilized, they also matured late. At that time, I thought again, if the vegetables are planted in a warm place, does that mean that they will grow faster?

However, where is the warm place? Besides, we have no land.

Then, more than a month ago, my uncle came to the county town… Then I suddenly thought, if I put the vegetable seeds on the stove and occasionally add a fire with firewood, the soil will warm, and the vegetables will grow faster… “

Wow……

Suddenly, a cry came.

Lin Sijun: “Mother…Mother…Father…Mother…”

As Lin Sijun cried, Lin Dajun also cried, Lin Sanjun didn’t cry out, but silently wept. At the beginning of the death of Lin’s father and Lin’s mother, the younger brothers of the Lin family had no time to grieve, because they wanted to find food and to live, and then they found food, and they were indulged in the excitement of having food every day, but now, listening to my sister When it comes to parents, they can’t help it.

In fact, Lin Yiyi has no feelings for Lin’s father and Lin’s mother, but seeing her younger brothers cry, her eyes are red. Now, don’t pinch yourself.

So a few days later, the county daily has another touching report. It is the follow-up to the cooking in the kitchen pit. It wrote about the reasons for growing vegetables in the kitchen pit, and also wrote about the death of Lin’s parents from starvation, and also wrote that Lin Yiyi took care of four younger brothers. If there is Internet in this era, I believe Lin Yiyi can still get the title of a national sister.

Obviously, she didn’t want to do the eldest sister like a mother, but at the end of the report, she wrote four words, the eldest sister is like a mother.

Of course, it’s not a few days now, when the brothers of the Lin family cry, Wang Liang is embarrassed to continue the interview, but he already knows the cause of the kitchen pit incident, and he feels satisfied, so Wang Liang left apologetically.

Originally, Grandma Wang and others wanted to see the rewards from the county government, but because the brothers of the Lin family were crying, everyone was embarrassed to see them, so they had to say goodbye one by one.

Lin Yiyi didn’t know how to comfort them. She said, “Okay, don’t cry. You have to set an example for your younger brother. If you cry again, Xiao Wu will cry too.” Lin Wudi pouted, if he wanted to cry, But there are already bubbles in the eyes. “For parents, what they want to see most is the unity and friendship of our brothers and sisters.”

Lin Yiyi: “Come and see what the county government has rewarded my sister.”

When it came to the reward, the brothers of the Lin family stopped crying immediately.

Lin Yiyi took out the reward, an enamel cup, two towels, two catties of brown sugar, ten catties of rice, two pieces of cloth, and two hundred dollars.

Lin Yiyi was stunned. What she was stunned was the money, she actually gave two hundred yuan. In fact, according to Lin Yiyi’s credit, where are these things? Being able to alleviate the problem of hunger and famine is a very big credit, but she didn’t realize it herself.

Lin Yiyi put away the 200 yuan and took out 3 yuan from the change: “Here, each of you will be rewarded for your unity and friendship.”

The three brothers happily accepted the money: “Thank you, sister.”

In the evening, when Jin Yu came back, Lin Yiyi told him about the reward from the county government.

Xiao Yu said: “President Cheng called me and said that the commune also has rewards. Should I bring you the county seat or what? I said that we will go back this week and send him to his hometown to make the family happy.”

Lin Yiyi: “It should be like this, grandma and mother must be happy.”

Xiao Yu: “…” He felt that after going back, the three generations of the Xiao family’s daughter-in-law were going to blow it again.

On the weekend, Jin Yu took Lin Yiyi and Lin’s fifth brother, and the three Lin family brothers on foot, and they went back to the countryside.

As soon as I got to the village gate, I saw the captain, Xiao Wu and Xiao Bin leading the villagers to applaud, and there was a red cloth hanging at the gate of the village, which read, Welcome Comrade Lin Yiyi, the hero of the kitchen pit.

Seeing this, Lin Yiyi suddenly felt that she had a sense of responsibility for the world. Like, as a citizen of this country, a responsibility that cannot be abandoned.

The Xiao family was very lively today. Whether it was the relatives of the Xiao family or Qin Xiangju’s family, they all came. This was the first time Lin Yiyi met them after they got married.

Seeing them coming, a young man said, “Cousin and sister-in-law are back.”

“Uncle and aunt are back.”

“Ah yo, Comrade Lin Yiyi, our kitchen pit vegetable growing hero, is back.”

There was applause in the Xiao family yard. In fact, many people in this era are very simple, and whoever brings benefits to them, they directly express their gratitude.

Qin Xiangju: “Second, one one, you’re back.” Qin Xiangju was wearing a padded jacket made by Lin Yiyi today. She, Xiao Daqiang, and Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao were all in royal blue. family.

Lin Yiyi: “Mother.” Then, she gave her a bag of things, “This is for you.”

Qin Xiangju: “What is this?”

Lin Yiyi: “It’s the reward that the former county magistrate’s secretary gave me on behalf of the county government. It’s just towels, brown sugar, cloth, rice, etc., and some money.”

Following her opening, everyone took a breath of air, but although everyone was envious, they were not jealous.

In fact, Lin Yiyi deliberately sent it at this time, and then said it, because she knew that Qin Xiangju was also a person with good face, and speaking out made her proud. Sure enough, when Lin Yiyi’s words fell, Qin Xiangju’s tone became proud: “You child, you can keep these things. What are you doing with the county government’s reward?” Although she said that, that little expression was not. In this way, that little expression is saying, my daughter-in-law is really amazing. I don’t know, I thought it was her daughter.

Lin Yiyi: “We have them in the county seat. This is for honoring you, your grandparents, and your father. Eating the things awarded by the county government represents honor.”

“Second sister-in-law said, mother, you should be humble, you are obviously happy that second sister-in-law is more filial to you than my own daughter.” The person who spoke was a refreshing woman, Xiao Ling, Xiao Yu’s younger sister.

Lin Yiyi likes a refreshing personality, and she is a bit careless herself, although she said hello to Xiao Ling on the wedding day, but when I saw her today, she said enthusiastically, “Xiao Ling, it makes sense for my mother to be nice to me. , Look, since we moved to the county seat, you haven’t come to recognize the door, tell me, have you forgotten your second brother?”

Xiao Ling was stunned for a moment, then smiled a little more sincerely: “Where, the children at home are making trouble, but the second sister-in-law is thinking of me, we must go to recognize the door, otherwise when we arrive at the county seat, we will not know our own brother’s house. Where is it.” She originally thought that the second sister-in-law was young, but she didn’t expect that the words she said were not small at all. She and her second brother are twins, and their relationship is much closer than other brothers. She is afraid that the second sister-in-law will not like her. Now it seems that she is worried for nothing. When it comes to going to the county seat, she needs to bring something when she recognizes the door. At the moment, there is nothing good at home, and she is really embarrassed to come. Besides, she is worried that Lin Yiyi thought she was going to fight the autumn wind, so she didn’t go.

Lin Yiyi: “That’s good, I’m usually at home, when can you come.” Then, she took out a handful of fruit candies from the cotton jacket, “Come, give it to the children.”

Xiao Ling gave birth to two sons. She was playing with Xiao Rui and Xiao Ling at the moment. When they heard their mother call them, they came over.

“Mother?” This is the eldest son, 5 years old this year, named Qin Jian.

“Mother, sugar…” This is the youngest son, 3 years old this year, named Qin Qiang.

Two brothers means strong.

Xiao Ling said: “This is given to you by your second aunt. Thank you second aunt.”

Qin Jian and Qin Qiang: “Thank you, second aunt.” The two children didn’t recognize the birth, and they smiled at Lin Yiyi after shouting, and their personality was a bit like Xiao Ling.

Lin Yiyi said, “No thanks, can you bring Uncle Wu to play with you?”

Qin Jian and Qin Qiang looked at Lin Wudi, shouldn’t such a small child be a younger brother? Why are you called uncle? But they didn’t think much of it. Qin Jian said: “Second aunt, I will play with Uncle Xiaowu.” He is a brother, whether Xiaowu is an uncle or a younger brother, he is always younger than him, so he will take care of Uncle Xiaowu.

Lin Yiyi patted his head: “Little Stone is really good.” Qin Jian’s nickname.

Xiao Rui and Xiao Zhu watched from the side, they didn’t dare to approach, but they envied the candy in the hands of the Qin brothers. Lin Yiyi didn’t pay attention to them. Besides, if the children didn’t come, she wouldn’t ask her elders to call them, right?

Everyone chatted for a while, President Cheng came, and the rewards were nothing more than the same. Lin Yiyi gave the things to Qin Xiangju.

President Cheng said: “Comrade Lin Yiyi, in addition to these, there is a recruitment quota here in the commune, and I plan to reward you as well, do you see?”

Lin Yiyi was taken aback: “This…” He looked at Jin Yu, and she didn’t know.

Jin Yu wasn’t surprised. His daughter-in-law had done a lot of credit this time, and he had thought about rewarding him for a job. It’s just that he didn’t want her to go: “You decide for yourself, do you want to go?” Although he didn’t want him to go, he didn’t say it.

At this time, the surrounding people are all listening nervously, this is work, go to the commune, isn’t that an iron job?

Qi Spinach was also nervous, but she knew that this job could not fall on them.

Lin Yiyi thought for a while. For her, the biggest role of work is commercial food, but now that she has commercial food, work is meaningless. However, people of this age don’t think that way. Lin Yiyi thought about it and said, “Can you only give it to me? Can I transfer it to others?”

President Cheng said: “Of course you can, it’s up to you, you can decide.”

Lin Yiyi: “Excuse me, what is your job?”

President Cheng: “Because it’s a job for you, it’s the job of a salesperson in a supply and marketing agency.”

Lin Yiyi thought about it for a while, and had an idea in her heart: “Can I change it to something else? For example, the commune guards can be.”

President Cheng was taken aback: “These two positions are different, and the salary is also different, are you sure? If you are sure, I believe people should be willing, you guys
