Back to 1979: Sending the Educated Youth’s Wife Back to the City

Chapter 23: Being tricked into a blind date
Fang Mingche listened to the lesson and said, "Yes, I was a little impulsive. Leave the child at her grandfather's house. I will pay for her food. I will pick her up when I find a house to rent."

Father Lin waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about the food expenses. I love my granddaughter. As for you, take care of yourself!"

Lin's mother was not very happy.

I just asked her cousin to introduce a cadre to Yan. Bringing my daughter back home to live with me will definitely have an impact.

Those who had been married and had children before were just forgotten about.

As for the man, as long as it is not made public, he will not pursue the matter.

They said that once the relationship is settled, they can help Ayan with her job problem.

She can even help with her brother's job after he gets married.

I am still young and don’t really want to retire.

If you retire early, you will suffer a 20% loss in your retirement salary. And every time you have a salary adjustment, you will lose 20%.

In the long run, the loss will be huge.

As for Lin Yi, he is now thinking about the room that originally belonged to him.

His girlfriend was right when she said that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled.

How could a sister get divorced and move back to her parents' home to affect her brother's marriage?
Lin Yan was very happy to hear that she was going to leave her daughter at home, "Well, Yanyan, sleep with mom tonight, okay?"

Yanyan asked, "What about dad?"

Lin Yan glanced at Fang Mingche. They hadn't remarried yet, so they definitely couldn't live together.

My family couldn't do that. My parents would definitely not agree. And there were so many neighbors in the compound, and they were all talking to each other.

Neither can a guest house.

Without a marriage certificate, they won't let you live in the same room. They're really strict!

No matter what your purpose is, you have to find a house quickly.

"Dad is staying in a hotel."

Yanyan shook her head, "I want to follow my father."

Mother Lin laughed and said, "This child also knows that he was awarded to his father."

The first time I met my granddaughter, I really didn't have much affection for her. Compared to that, money was of course more important.

She somewhat resented the father and daughter for showing up at this time. She was just about to persuade and educate A-Yan again.

Nowadays, such good marriages are mostly ruined!

Yanyan could sense that her grandma and uncle didn't seem to welcome her. Children are also very sensitive!

The excitement on her face faded a little when she saw her mother.

Father Lin looked at Mother Lin and said, "Why are you saying these things in front of the child? Just do as I say and leave the child here. As for you, the visiting time on the letter of introduction has expired. Whether you go or stay is none of our business."

If a child is left alone like this, as long as it does not cause burden to others, no one should report it.

Lin Yi pointed at Yan Yan and said, "Dad, is she going to live here for a long time?"

Yanyan, who was pointed at, said unhappily, "I'm with my dad."

Fang Mingche said: "Or, just let Yanyan come over for dinner. Yanyan, be good, Daddy has to go find a house. I can't take care of you during the day!"

If the state-owned restaurant didn't have food for children, he wouldn't have wanted to take advantage of it.

At worst, he could just live in a single room in the guesthouse until he could rent a house.

12 days, 36 yuan. It is inevitable that the poor will become rich on the road.

He earns money for his wife and children, so just spend it.

He also has to pay for food, otherwise he will give it to his mother-in-law and brother-in-law in disguise.

It would be wrong to let Yanyan suffer. He was unfamiliar with the place and really needed Yanyan to help him find a house.

But we have to hurry up and find a house. Otherwise, if we don’t find a house to rent, we will have to send our daughter to live with my father-in-law.

Yanyan rubbed her eyes and said, "Dad, I'm sleepy. I want to go to sleep."

"Okay! You can sleep in daddy's arms." Fang Mingche said as he stood up. "Then grandma and grandpa, I'll take Yanyan back to the guesthouse first. She must be tired after sitting on the train for three days."

Lin Yan said: "Let her sleep with me. She doesn't take up any extra space."

This house was allocated to her by her father, so she has the right to live here.

However, after not seeing her brother for many years, she was heartbroken to find him become like this.

When he went to the countryside, he always said that he would repay her in the future.

She was only fifteen or sixteen years old at the time. She was scared to suddenly go to a production team thousands of miles away.

But her brother is one year younger than her.

Later, she conspired with her mother and reported to the Youth League Office without telling her father.

Fang Mingche said, "She's still a little distant from you, let's talk about it later. Otherwise, can you give us a ride?"

Even if Yanyan falls asleep, he can't leave and leave her alone in the room.

Who knows how many keys there are to the house?

However, he could carry her and send Yan back. This back and forth would be enough for Yan to interrogate him.

Lin Yan nodded, went into the house, got a flashlight and went out together.

Sure enough, as soon as we left the compound, she asked, "Why did you quit your job?"

"I couldn't find you since the second call."

Lin Yan thought for a moment and said, "My parents must have sent someone to call me without telling me. I was wondering why you didn't get any news later, and I couldn't find you."

Fang Mingche asked, "Who did your neighbor think I was when I entered the yard?"

Lin Yan looked at him twice. Why was she so perceptive?
"My aunt tricked me into going on a blind date with a 35-year-old bald man whose wife had died! No, even if he was very good, I would never change my mind. I have clearly rejected him. But my mother and aunt still don't give up. In this sense, you came at the right time."

Lin Yan frowned after she finished speaking, "But BJ Residence is not easy. Besides, you have to rent a house, and you have to buy food at a high price."

"It seems that when I said BJ had more opportunities, you didn't believe me at all?"

Lin Yan spread her hands, "He said he would come back to arrange jobs for us, but there's no movement at all. All the state-owned units said they don't need any more people. Now many parents have to retire early to free up a job for their children. I think you're right, I can't accept my dad giving up his job for me."

Now she just lives at home, and her brother dislikes her.

"Mingche, I'll go with you to look for a house tomorrow. Once we find one, we'll remarry."

Fang Mingche said pertinently: "I'm afraid my father-in-law won't agree."

"I can't find a job. Without a job, there is no dormitory. Even if I get a job by chance, I may still need to queue up for a dormitory. He can't possibly stop his son from getting married because of this."

Lin Yan also has a clear understanding of this.

No matter how much the old father loves her, his son's lifelong affairs are more important.

Well, it's good that Mingche is here. They go out and rent a house together.

Fang Mingche nodded, "I'll do my best this time and try to get my father-in-law to agree sooner. By the way, Ayan, do you have a passbook?"

It is not so convenient for him to open a passbook.

He did it with a letter of introduction. Once the letter of introduction expires, he will be an illegal resident.

There is no way to withdraw the money. If I go back, the bank staff will notify the police. They will not let him continue to run a black business in BJ!
So the money can only be kept in Ayan's note.
