Chapter 252: Those Years in the Great Northern Wilderness (88)
Although Li Sheng's behavior was not decent, everyone privately said that Li Daidi had turned a disaster into a blessing as he got rid of a family of blood-sucking worms.
But judging from Li Laidi's reaction, she was afraid that her second sister had married the wrong person and ended up in a miserable state, otherwise she would not have been so desperate as to pretend to be a ghost. Now the Four Olds are being destroyed, and if anyone reports her, she will be finished.
Yun Tinglan was very curious about what other tricks Li Laidi had up his sleeve.
She put the stir-fried river clams and stewed leek and river clam soup on the table. Lingxi had exchanged a bucket of river clams with someone before, and kept them in clear water for several days. Today, she cooked them all.
The two children have authentic Northeastern appetites, and they like spicy food. Song Jinhan has a light taste, and she can eat a little, but she prefers sour and spicy. The family eats several different ways, and they can't eat the same thing anyway, so it's Lingxi. If it were someone else, they would be fed up with this hassle.
Xu Jianmin also likes spicy food, the spicier the better. He would dip his steamed buns in the soup on the plate and eat them. The two children followed his example and wiped the plate clean. Then they were full, burped, rubbed their stomachs, and took a nap in the rocking chair under the grape trellis.
When it was getting dark, Guihua came carrying homemade jujube flower steamed buns.
I want to find a job for my eldest son. He will graduate from junior high school next year, but he is not good at studying. My husband and I forced him to go to junior high school with a stick. There is no hope for him to pass the exam to get a higher degree, but we have to find a way out for him.
She was reluctant to send him to the army, and the jobs in the city were not enough for him. Since she was friends with Yun Tinglan, she thought of arranging a job for him in the health center. "He is only a junior high school student, he knows how to read, and he can help to prescribe a prescription or something."
What can I do?
Being able to read and knowing medicinal materials are two completely different things. Some medicinal materials look very similar, but their medicinal properties are very different. If there is even the slightest mistake in grouping the medicinal materials and dispensing the medicine according to the prescription, it could be fatal.
Yun Tinglan must be crazy to let a student who knows nothing about housing touch drugs, but that's not the case.
She said, "I can arrange it, but you know, that person...has been keeping an eye on our family. As soon as I arranged for Shitou to go to the hospital, he would expose the matter the moment I did. Didn't my aunt give all the work at the supply and marketing point to Lannie?"
Guihua understood immediately. Who? Zhou Jufang! That person had tried to get her to talk, just to find fault with Dean Yun's family, thinking that she was a rural woman who knew nothing. Bah, who was she looking down on?
It is really hard to arrange people when there is someone watching you all the time, waiting to catch your mistakes. Even if you do arrange someone, Zhou Jufang can ruin it right after.
But she could only get such a family of people with connections and connections. Her own family member was just a hard laborer who worked silently. He had no skills or abilities. He only relied on his qualifications to become a deputy platoon leader, and he was in charge of logistics. He had no ability to take care of children.
At this time, Yun Tinglan said, "It's still early for the child to graduate. I'll put this matter to rest. I mean to arrange it somewhere else, so that person... can't get involved. If you are willing, I will help you keep an eye on it."
This is not a difficult thing. The children of the Corps need to work, and the parents in the city are reluctant to let their children suffer. But the policy is there, and every household must have children go to the countryside. So coming to their independent regiment to join the team is obviously a good place.
Not to mention Yun Tinglan, there were also many people who greeted Song Jinhan. They were all acquaintances from sister units, and they all knew that he had extensive connections. It would be the best thing to arrange the child without violating discipline.
It was mutually beneficial and could win people's hearts. Song Jinhan was not embarrassed. He had already prepared the clues. If there was a personnel transfer, it would not be abrupt. It was a brother unit. What was wrong with the technical personnel being seconded? It was normal to bring an apprentice with him.
As for arranging the educated youth...
Even if these people with connections were not there, there would be other educated youth. They just wanted the Corps to not go hungry and their children to not be bullied. After training for a few years, they would find an opportunity to bring their children back to the city.
This matter was extremely difficult for Guihua's family, but it was just a matter of words for them.
"That's great." After solving the big problem in her mind, Guihua also had the mind to gossip. She took the bunch of grapes that Yun Tinglan handed to her, pulled off a few and stuffed them directly into her mouth, swallowing them with the seeds and skin together.
Yining was stunned and rubbed his stomach, feeling uncomfortable for Aunt Guihua.
She still remembers that when she was a child, she once swallowed a watermelon seed. Her brother threatened her that a watermelon would grow in her stomach and they had to cut her stomach open to take the seed out. She was so scared that she covered her stomach and cried for a long time. When her parents found out, they grabbed her brother and beat him up.
Since then, she has to spit out the seeds of everything she eats, otherwise she will feel uncomfortable.
"The deputy head is really capable, and the grapes he grows are delicious. The grape vines at my house are also old vines dug from the back mountain. They taste sour. Yours are sweet. No wonder the kids stare at them every day."
Yun Tinglan cut off a few more bunches and put them in the basket brought by Guihua, and said with a smile: "Three seedlings were produced this year. Two of them have been reserved. Do you want the remaining one? If you want, come and dig it up in two months."
Forget it, there is no time to take care of it. The grapes in the yard were picked by the three brothers and sisters themselves. Anyway, the children are happy to eat them, so why bother?
Guihua stuffed a few more pills into her mouth, and the juice splashed everywhere. Yun Tinglan silently stepped back, and moved the stool a little further away while getting up to get something. She picked up the herbs with a dustpan and listened to Guihua talking.
"...Many people went there. Do you know that Tieguai Chen who works as the boilerman in the big cafeteria? His mother secretly came to Li Laidi's house with a box of snacks and fruits, and asked her to..." She wanted to ask the gods to help her, "see if her daughter-in-law is pregnant with a boy or a girl."
Yun Tinglan knew the old lady of course. She had once asked him to help check the gender of the couple, but Yun Tinglan refused because they were two girls and if he really told her, he would be committing a sin.
No matter what, giving birth to the child first, even if it's given away, is better than aborting it directly.
"Then Li Laidi could tell at a glance that it was a girl, and twins..."
Yun Tinglan frowned, and then she heard Guihua continue, "The one possessed by Li Laidi said that the old lady had committed too many sins of killing. If she wants a son, she must give birth to her daughters and raise them well, so that the two dead baby girls can be reborn, otherwise she will never have a grandson."
Yun Tinglan's brows finally relaxed, thinking that Li Laidi still had a trace of conscience.
"You said that old lady Chen was really cruel. Even though they were girls, they were still her granddaughters. Everyone just thought she gave the two children away, but who would have thought...they deserved to have their family line cut off..."
This is no small matter since human lives are involved. It would be fine if Yun Tinglan didn't know about it, but if she knew, she certainly couldn't just ignore it.
Let Yi An go and ask Sister Tan to come over. The Women's Federation has to step in on this matter. It is wrong to favor boys over girls, and it even killed her own granddaughter. This cannot be tolerated.
