Chapter 136 Xiaohong is awake
"What you said is quite true. It is better to rely on yourself than on others.
But my brother wouldn't marry someone who can't tell right from wrong, right? My mother wouldn't agree to that either."
Lin Yinyin actually agreed with what Cai Yanhong said, but she didn't know what Comrade Yanhong had been through to be able to say such nonsense.
"I didn't know these things before. If it weren't for this trip to the countryside, I wouldn't have understood them at all!
You also know…”
There were some things that Cai Yanhong had been holding in her heart for a long time, and that night, she blurted them all out like Lin Yinyin spilling the beans.
As a veteran diners, Lin Yinyin also took the initiative to take out the snacks that Lin Jianhe had prepared for her, and Lin Yinyin even opened a can of fruit.
Such sincerity! No one else can compare to this.
Lin Yinyin has a lot of these things. How could ordinary people bear to eat them like this? It’s already very good that she can take out a handful of melon seeds.
Cai Yanhong might have been too excited and was talking about this and that, but Lin Yinyin managed to figure it all out with her clever little brain.
Let’s put it this way, Cai Yanhong’s family conditions are pretty good. Both her parents are working, and her uncle helps them a lot, sending them some things from time to time.
Her parents have never treated her badly since she was a child. She doesn't have to do any work at home, and she is the one who chooses the good things. She even has better food, clothing and other expenses at home than her brothers and sisters!
This also made Cai Yanhong believe for a long time that her parents were different from other people's parents, and that their family was not a family that favored boys over girls.
What she didn't expect was that when it came to the choice of who would go to the countryside and who would work, her parents still chose to give the job to her younger brother who had not yet graduated from high school.
Nowadays, families with many children, regardless of whether they all find jobs or not, must send one child to the countryside.
They asked her to come to the countryside and spoke to her in a nice way, saying that she should stay for two years and they would bring her back to the city when they found a solution.
Cai Yanhong cried, made a fuss, and even threatened to commit suicide. She tried every possible method, but still couldn't change her parents' minds. In the end, it was her uncle who found a connection for her and she was able to come to the Red Star Commune.
Because his uncle has a transportation route here, he can help her a little, and now she can earn some money together. Cai Yanhong's parents don't know about this money-making matter yet, and Cai Yanhong doesn't plan to tell her parents.
After this incident, she is now very clear-headed. Her family usually gives her small favors, but when it comes to big things, her parents still think that sons are more important than daughters.
After the son goes to the countryside, it will delay his marriage and affect their chances of having grandchildren.
It doesn't matter if my daughter goes to the countryside. She will get married in the future anyway, and she will be someone else's family. It doesn't make any difference whether she leaves early or late.
She even felt that her uncle and aunt treated her better than her parents. Since she went to the countryside, her uncle and aunt would send her some things from time to time and write letters to ask about her situation.
Her mother also wrote to her, but Cai Yanhong always threw the letters away after reading them and never replied to any of them.
Ever since this incident, Cai Yanhong realized that only money and bills were the most reliable. Her parents, whom she had trusted unconditionally for so many years, could just abandon her without any hesitation.
As for how to face the other members of the Cai family in the future, she hasn't figured it out yet, and it's still unclear whether she will be able to see them in the future.
Fortunately, his uncle is sincere to her, and she is not a poor little thing who is unloved and ignored!
At the end of her words, Cai Yanhong couldn't help crying, and Lin Yinyin didn't know how to comfort Comrade Yanhong's wounded little heart.
I could only take out another can of luncheon meat, open it, and place it in front of Comrade Yanhong.
"Yinyin, I remember you have some peanuts in your kitchen, can you help me fry them?
I'm going back to the house to get something good, please wait for me!"
Cai Yanhong didn't wait for Lin Yinyin to answer. She put on her shoes and ran outside. After a while, she came back with a small bottle of white wine.
"You, you, you're still drinking!"
Lin Yinyin pointed at the white wine in Cai Yanhong's hand, somewhat incredulous. In this day and age, there are still young girls who would take the initiative to ask for drinks.
"Drink a little when you're in a bad mood and forget everything!"
"So you're in a bad mood today?"
Cai Yanhong nodded and looked at Lin Yinyin with anticipation.
"Okay, then drink less. If you drink too much, I can't take you back. Don't even think about staying in my room."
Cai Yanhong responded to Lin Yinyin with the chick-pecking-rice-like nod!
In addition to frying peanuts for Cai Yanhong, Lin Yinyin also fried a big bowl of sour bean fried rice for herself. She didn't eat anything in the evening and was now hungry.
Just as the meal was placed on the table, there was another knock on the door. Lin Yinyin wondered what happened tonight?
"Who?"
"It's me, Shen Yechu."
"What is Shen Zhiqing doing at this time?"
"I gonna go see."
Cai Yanhong knew that Lin Yinyin had difficulty walking, so she took the initiative to put on her shoes, get off the kang and open the door.
"Cai Zhiqing, you're here too?"
"Haha, I want to talk to Yinyin, what are you doing?"
Cai Yanhong looked at Shen Yechu holding something wrapped in oil paper in one hand and a bottle of wine in the other, feeling a little strange.
What? Shen Yechu is in a bad mood today?
"I also came to talk to her about something, so why don't we go in?"
Shen Yechu really wanted to hear Lin Yinyin's opinion on something today. Based on the time she had observed her, she found that Lin Yinyin was a very smart person.
Not trying to take advantage of others will not make you suffer any loss.
When Shen Yechu put the oil paper package on the kang table, Lin Yinyin and the others saw that the oil paper package contained a whole braised pig's ear, which had not been cut open.
"Shen Zhiqing, you are too valuable. I can't help you at all."
Lin Yinyin looked at the pig ears on the table and subconsciously wanted to refuse. She didn't dare to accept anything given by the heroine casually.
"Lin Zhiqing, I'm not asking you to help me with anything, I just want to ask for your opinion on something.
We can’t just chat and talk, I also brought some wine, rice wine!
It’s sweet and suitable for us girls to drink.”
When Lin Yinyin heard Shen Yechu say it was rice wine, she was also tempted. She also had it in her supermarket, but it definitely didn't taste as good as the heroine's. The rice she had eaten before had already confirmed her idea.
"Well... okay, Yanhong, go to the vegetable garden and pick two cucumbers. Let's make some pig ears and cucumbers!"
"Okay!"
When there was food to eat, Cai Yanhong became particularly active in her work. She quickly picked two cucumbers and washed them.
Everything was ready and the dishes were served on the table. Lin Yinyin simply rolled up her mattress and put it aside.
