Rebirth: 1977

Grandma Pan put down the hookah in her hand, shook her head and said:

"I can still do some small things now, so I can't hold Lingling back.

It's important for her to go to work.

While I can still help her, let her make more money. "

Yin Tianshui did not persuade him again.

He walked around in a circle and saw that the eldest sister had tidied the house.

But after taking a closer look, I discovered the problem:

"Grandma, why are there two stools missing at home?"

Two chairs are placed on both sides of the long table, which are not used normally, to highlight the style of a living room at home.

Like now, two old people are smoking cigarettes in a chair with a backrest across the Eight Immortals Table, and they look very high-spirited.

The eight square stools were also made of zelkova tree. They were heavy in his hands. For the sake of appearance, the four edges were carved with patterns.

The paint also took a lot of effort.

Now, there are only six of the eight square stools.

You can't tell if you don't pay attention, the stool is placed under the table.

But who makes Yin Tianshui’s eyes look so good!

"Grandma, why are there two stools missing at home?"

He was afraid that he had counted wrongly, so he pulled them out one by one and clicked them again.

In fact, it is made for the elderly.

"Oh, it's your Grandpa Niu's house who had guests two days ago. There wasn't enough room to sit in, so I borrowed it."

Grandma Pan pointed at Grandpa Niu and said.

Yin Tianshui knew that it was normal for people to borrow tables, chairs, benches, bowls and chopsticks for weddings and funerals in rural areas.

But if it’s not a holiday, how many guests can come?

Need to borrow a stool?

Their house is some distance away from the house they rented out, and they don’t want to rent it next door. How many more minutes would it take to come to their house to borrow it?

Besides, there is an established rule that the banquet must be returned immediately after the banquet is over.

He smiled understandingly and said:

"That's it, Grandpa Niu, the stools in my house are relatively heavy, so it's not easy to move them around.

While I'm at home, I'll help you move back, so that Grandpa Niu won't have to worry about it. "

With that said, he went out immediately. He knew everyone's door anyway.

Moreover, most people do not close the door or lock it in normal times.

"Grandpa Niu, you can stay here with my grandma. I will be back soon."

This is not a matter of two stools. He has provided everything for the eldest sister, and there are many jealous people.

It's normal to borrow some money, but this thing seems abnormal.

If he didn't move back home, it is estimated that Grandpa Niu's family would not take the initiative to return it.

Others will see it and imitate it.

After I left, I relied on my eldest sister and my grandma. I was too embarrassed to refuse and refused to borrow money. If I didn't return it, I was too embarrassed to ask for it back?

Ha ha!

Grandpa Niu's face looked ugly, and he squinted his eyes and said to Grandma Pan:

"Kid Xiaoshui, it's a good thing to protect the family. Are you afraid that we won't repay the loan?

Why did you become so petty when you grew up?

Sister Pan, it's not good for boys to do this. They will be looked down upon by outsiders. Then it will be said that you are not educated well. "

Grandma Pan replied with a smile:

"You're overthinking, doesn't Xiaoshui care about you and your family?

Those stools are heavy for you to carry. You won’t have enough strength to carry them back to my house just one person at a time.

Old guy, don’t fail to recognize good people’s hearts!

My Xiaoshui is very sensible now. Many big leaders outside trust him and entrust him to do things. "

Grandma Pan blew out the paper with a "pop" sound, lit the pipe again, squinted her eyes and started to smoke "snoring, snoring".

Grandpa Niu stood up with a 'Oh!' and said, "I'll go back and have a look. There's no one at home. Xiao Shui doesn't know if he can find him."

As soon as he went out, Yin Tianshui came back quickly with two stools.

When I saw the old man going out, he greeted him politely:

"Grandpa Niu, are you leaving?

Look, I helped you move back.

No need to thank me, just walk slowly. "

Turning around, he and Granny Pan looked at each other with somewhat cloudy eyes, their faces calm and calm.

Grandma Pan sighed and her face darkened:

"Xiao Shui, Lingling looks soft, I can't save face, and they can't take it back even if they borrow it.

It makes you a bad person. "

Yin Tianshui saw that grandma could say such things and knew that grandma was sensible in these matters.

He was also willing to give some advice.

"Grandma, I know what you are thinking. You have been unhappy all your life, but now you are getting better, and you want others to look up to you.

Let the eldest sister feel proud.

But you should understand one thing. People bully the weak and fear the strong. This does not mean that they are bad or evil people.

But most people are selfish.

Now our family is so prosperous that the people in the village are jealous.

And everyone knows that these are all in the eldest sister's name.

I asked you to follow the eldest sister. First, I feel more at ease when she takes care of you.

In addition, the eldest sister is too soft-tempered and needs you to support her and give her some guidance.

No matter what happens, the people in the village still have to show you some respect.

If you can't save face and refuse to make the decision for your eldest sister, do you want others to bully you step by step?

If you come to borrow a stool today and don't return it, someone will come to borrow a table tomorrow and don't return it.

There are also sewing machines, bicycles, electric fans, food, oil, salt, and even money at home. Every step of the way, people have reasons to ask for help.

The first time you complied with someone else's wishes, you opened a hole.

Those who haven't borrowed it will still hate you for treating one person favorably and not treating everyone equally. "

Yin Tianshui sat down next to Granny Pan and patiently persuaded:

"You have good intentions and want to entertain the villagers and children who come to your home, so you have prepared a variety of snacks.

Have you ever thought that these people really miss you after eating it?

Will they be thinking about having more delicious food prepared for them next time they come? If they don't get what they want, do you think they will be thinking about how good you were to them?

Or complain about why there was no preparation for them later?

In order to eat, they will come more and more frequently. In addition to children and the elderly, gradually, the parents of children will also have excuses to come.

Grandma, the money I gave you for your retirement is not enough to buy them food.

Do you just want to have fun?

Do you want them to say hello?

What will happen when the money is gone and there is nothing for them to eat? Who would say, "Grandma, come to my house for dinner."

Who would think of bringing the delicious food from home to honor you and give you a bite?

Don’t you know, it’s not easy for my eldest sister and I to work hard to make money. "

Yin Tianshui had long understood that grandma had never cared about how he made money.

Is it hard to make money?

It's different for my eldest sister. I will be nervous for her and work hard for her.

For the eldest sister, come to him to fight for your interests.

So he put his eldest sister's hard work in making money in front of his grandma to remind her.

Yin Tianshui hoped that his sincere words would stop his grandma from showing off and comparing herself to others.

The next day, Yin Tianshui and Wen Feng went to the admissions office to complete all the registration procedures.

Wen Feng held the registration form and was so excited that he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at night. He got up and continued reading.

Yin Tianshui saw Wen Feng's review progress and seriously suggested:

"Wen Feng, go to the factory and ask for leave. There are still more than 20 days until the exam. If you work hard, you will have great hope."

In fact, Yin Tianshui was certain that as long as Wen Feng performed normally during the exam, he should have no problem passing.

I'm not sure what kind of school I can get into.

Yin Tianshui hoped that Wen Feng would consolidate his knowledge points. In addition, he wanted to prevent the test questions from being different from those in his previous life.

He wanted to expand the scope of review and gain greater control.

A few more points can make a big difference.

"Are you really asking for leave? Will my colleagues in the factory secretly laugh at me for not overestimating my abilities?"

Wen Feng was still worried about this.

"You care what others think of you? After working hard for so long, are you ready to give up halfway?"

"I'm going to ask for leave right away, who dares to laugh at me?

Humph, at most I won't go to work in the factory. I'm sorry for the quota you helped me get in the first place. "

"There is no future, so go quickly. In the last 20 days or so, you must go all out!"

The time for the exam has been determined: two days on December 11 and 12.
