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

Chapter 39 Girls are outgoing
Fang Mingche nodded, "It's getting late, let's take you out."

He held his daughter in his arms and walked Lin Yan, who was pushing her bicycle, to the entrance of the alley. Although his arms were sore at the moment, it didn't affect his riding.

Those who have been educated youth can endure hardships!

If he hadn't brought his daughter with him, he would have definitely sent Yan home and then come back himself. But it was inconvenient to travel so far with his daughter.

But fortunately, the public security in BJ city is still fine.

Alas, I have to hurry up and get into college, get a BJ residence permit, and remarry so that I can take care of her in all aspects.

"If your arm still hurts tomorrow after applying the hot compress, just take the bus to the square."

Lin Yan asked, "Isn't this car also used to transport water?"

"No, I asked Uncle Gu to find a brother named Song Quan. Tomorrow he will use Uncle Gu's old bicycle to bring us water."

"That!"

After seeing A-Yan off, Fang Mingche went back to boil some water for himself, and brushed his daughter's teeth, washed her face, and soaked her feet.

"Don't swallow the mouthwash, just spit it out. That's it!"

As he was wiping his daughter's face, he could already feel his right arm starting to ache.

After putting his daughter to bed, Fang Mingche fiddled with it for a long time and continued to apply hot compress.

Then take out the liberal arts books and memorize the knowledge points.

Nowadays, "memorizing more points" is still useful.

If you want to have a relatively safe chance of being admitted to Capital Normal University, you cannot lose any points from rote memorization.

At least it is not the 985 or 211 of later generations, but it is also pretty good.

Lin Yan rode her bike back home and parked it.

Seeing that she looked unhappy and was shaking her arms again, Father Lin sneered and asked, "Do you understand what's going on?"

While she was applying the hot compress, Lin's mother followed in to help. It was not easy to do it alone!

"You're not going tomorrow?"

"Go, why not? I also need to go to the street office and tell them that I found a job for myself."

Mother Lin glared at him. "Are you stupid? The work assigned by the neighborhood office is definitely better than doing it yourself. Look how tired you are. Are you going to be a workhorse for the Fang family?"

"The money I earn goes into my own pocket, how can I be called a workhorse?"

Mother Lin rolled her eyes and asked, "How much money can you spend? Why, is it very profitable?"

My son's girlfriend's family is indeed a bit greedy. How can an ordinary family afford all the three turns and one ring?

Having one or two of them is great, but I want all four.

But his son was like a possessed person and just wanted that woman.

She didn't like it at all.

Nowadays, it would be the same even if the old man’s bicycle was tidied up.

There are still three things missing.

Lin Yan said, "It's enough to make ends meet! Mom, you know that Yanyan only has one set of luggage, one for her and one for her to change into. Fortunately, her dad brought her an extra set of underwear. Otherwise, they might not dry in time after washing in this weather. The seasons are about to change, and they have to buy all their spring clothes. They have to go to the black market to buy cloth coupons! BJ House is not easy, I'm not exaggerating!"

"Of course not, otherwise BJ would have been overcrowded a long time ago, right?"

Mother Lin also found herself a little funny.

He also had a sudden thought that if the tea stall could really make money, he would borrow some money from Xiao Fang to make up the bride price.

He wants to marry his daughter, so it's not easy to urge him to pay back the money. Then he can pay it back slowly!

But looking at his daughter like this, it is true that he is a country boy, and it is good enough for him and his daughter to be able to live a good life in BJ.

If you want to live a good life by renting a house, or even an empty one, you have to spend money lavishly!

Now I’ll just set up a tea stall and make do with it for now.

So she said, "It's great that he, a grown man, is willing to serve a girl. When Yanyan came home, she was plump, white and clean, and it was obvious that she was taken care of very well. Don't be fooled by how much your father says he loves you. When you were two or three years old, it was impossible for him to serve him patiently. It's all because of you. I raised you with great difficulty." If Yanyan didn't look like a member of the Lin family, was clean and pretty, well dressed, and had a sweet mouth, how could she be conquered in just a few days?

Lin Yan leaned against her mother without saying much. It is true that one does not know the kindness of parents until he has children.

Mother Lin became more gentle and began to apply hot compress to her daughter's hands and feet.

She had been young once, and she knew that once someone was so carried away, it was impossible to pull them back by force.

Even nine oxen can’t pull it back!

Apart from being a country bumpkin, there doesn't seem to be any other major problems with Xiao Fang.

As long as he can get a BJ household registration, he will be a good candidate for son-in-law.

The key is to be considerate and gentle.

Sometimes compared to these two things, conditions take a back seat.

As for poverty, who isn’t poor right now in the whole country?

Even though he was a state official, he didn't have much surplus food at home.

The next day, Lin Yan woke up and felt that her arm was still sore. Although the heat treatment relieved the pain, it was still a bit uncomfortable.

I couldn't hold the handlebars of a bicycle steady, so I had to take the bus.

Fortunately, the tea stall is really profitable. This fare is nothing.

As for walking, it’s still warm enough to walk in this weather.

While comforting herself, she awkwardly put on her large cotton-padded jacket and prepared to leave.

Father Lin said, "I heard that you are going to the street office to register that you have a job. Do you not need the organization to arrange anything for you?"

"Ah, I won't go even if you arrange it. Wouldn't it just take up space for nothing and offend people?"

"Are you out of your mind? Is his surname Fang so good?"

No father can stand his daughter's behavior.

I was so tired the first day that I could hardly lift my arms, and yet I had to go help early the next day.

"Who am I helping? I own half of the money earned, and I support my own daughter."

Faced with his eldest daughter's resolute attitude, Lin's father was helpless.

Humph, girls are extroverts. In another twenty years, Fang will be just like him now!
"Then don't rush to go to the street office to register. It won't be arranged for you for a while anyway. Don't cut off your retreat!"

Lin Yan looked at the time and said, "Okay."

Actually, it's a bit late to go to the square now. It's far away, so there's nothing we can do!

She had no control over when the bus would arrive at the station.

Mingche has to get up early in the morning to make lunch for three people, taking care of the children.

But she was wrong this time. When Fang Mingche woke up, it was a little difficult for him to hold his daughter to pee in the morning.

Not only did he not make lunch, he didn't even make breakfast.

Nowadays, some people have secretly opened small restaurants. They don’t need food coupons, just pay money.

In fact, during those ten years, many former restaurant owners did this secretly and only supplied food to reliable acquaintances.

There is no way, we need to eat! If we don’t make money, what the hell are we going to do?

Now, I’m a little braver.

The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee was held, and many educated youth returned to the cities but could not find jobs.

BJ City no longer arrests small vendors who engage in speculation and profiteering.

That's why all the small stalls and vendors emerged.
