Chapter 154 Triple Happiness
"Take it, this is the lottery, you should accept it."
Tao Wan held Wang Lanxiang's hand and asked her to take the red envelope: "We have been together for a year, and you never asked us for help no matter how difficult it was. We both know that you can live a good life on your own, and you never ask for help.
But this time it’s our intention, and you must accept it.”
Wang Lanxiang wiped away tears and nodded: "Thank you, I really don't know what to do."
"Auntie said you just go ahead and pull the fabric, and she will sew a new coat for you. You don't have to change the lining. When the time comes, you can replace the cotton of this old cotton-padded jacket and it will be as good as new."
Now that Wang Lanxiang has no money, he should save some money.
After Tao Wan finished speaking, Wang Lanxiang was really grateful: "This is too troublesome for Aunt Yan. I'll see if I can sew it myself."
Wang Lanxiang can still do needlework.
"Just make a good new cotton-padded jacket when you get married! From now on, when you live in Yinjiazhuang, just visit your aunt's house more often. From now on, you will put down your roots here. The East has the upper hand and the West has the short, and there are all kinds of favors inside and outside.
, can you still not want it?"
Tao Wan said this, and Wang Lanxiang thought the same thing: "Then I have to thank Aunt Yan properly."
"Okay, if you buy the cloth then, take a piece of it over to thank you. Auntie's craftsmanship is very good."
Tao Wan was wearing a wolfskin vest that Liu Yan had sewn for her. She showed the stitching to Wang Lanxiang.
Wang Lanxiang touched it and found that it was indeed dense and strong.
"That's good." Zhao Yue also came to touch it, "Aunt Yan's craftsmanship, Lan Xiang, your wedding dress can last three years!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Tao Wan vaguely said "new cotton-padded jacket", but Zhao Yue said "wedding dress", and Wang Lanxiang suddenly blushed.
"What nonsense am I talking about," Zhao Yue stuck out her tongue, "I have to go back to eat. That family is especially angry with me. I have to go back late, so I can only eat cold food."
Zhao Yue still has not been able to reconcile with the villagers where she stayed. The relationship between the two parties cannot be said to be bad, but it is definitely not good.
"Then I'll go back too."
Tao Wan also said goodbye.
After the two left, Wang Lanxiang opened two red envelopes, Zhao Yue gave five yuan, and Tao Wan gave ten yuan.
The money is not much, but they have calculated it well.
Five yuan is enough to make a coat and a pair of trousers, and ten yuan is the dowry that girls here usually bring when they get married.
Tao Wan and Zhao Yue didn't want Wang Lanxiang to feel that she owed them too much, so they discussed it until the end.
To Tao Wan, ten yuan was just ten days of living expenses, which was not much at all.
Wang Lanxiang held the two red envelopes to her chest.
Why are her parents and brothers obviously connected by blood, but they don't have as deep a relationship as two friends from far and wide?
Wang Lanxiang got married in the twelfth lunar month, and the admission notices for Tao Wan and Zhao Yue also arrived.
Zhao Yue was admitted to a university next to her home. Although it was just an ordinary undergraduate program, the admission rate was less than 5%. She was excited enough to be admitted.
Tao Wan was well prepared and received the highest score in the city, and was admitted to the Department of Medicine at Yanda University as she wished.
This news excited the entire Yinjiazhuang. People from the county and town came to see her and beat gongs and drums.
She has become a role model for the children in Yinjiazhuang.
When Bai Yanhe heard the news, she was so happy that her thighs almost broke. She also told Tao Wan that her cousins had also been admitted to college. Bai Fansheng had gone to an ordinary normal school, but Bai Fanxiao had also been admitted to Yan'an University.
I am a college student, but I studied liberal arts and law.
Tao Wan was really happy. This was a triple blessing for Tao Wan, because Yin Qingbai also came back from Yancheng.
After the Chinese New Year, the two of them can go back to Yancheng to go to school together.
Yin Qingbai's train came back at night. Tao Wan wrapped herself in a big cotton-padded jacket and stood in the night, waiting for Yin Qingbai to leave the station.
"Brother Bo!"
Tao Wan stretched out her hand and waved it vigorously. The tall figure had become a little thin after not seeing him for half a year.
Yin Qingbai carried his luggage on his shoulders but walked quickly. He walked through the pedestrians in three steps and two steps and came to Tao Wan. As soon as he put the luggage down: "Tao Wan."
Tao Wan opened her hands and threw herself into Yin Qingbai's arms.
This was a bit bold, and the people who came to pick him up all looked in this direction, but there was no malicious look in their eyes. They were all happy for the man and woman who had reunited after a long separation.
Everyone came to wait for someone with this mentality, and the entire station was filled with this strong emotion.
Liu Yan was on the side, leaning against Yin Guofu to wipe her tears.
"Why are you crying? Aren't you back?"
Yin Guofu's nose was also a little sore, but he didn't say anything.
He picked up Yin Qingbai's luggage and walked outside the station: "Hurry home, your brothers and sisters are still waiting at home."
I had to hold back a handful of tears.
"Brother Bai, come back, it's getting late."
Yin Qingbai held Tao Wan in his arms, as if he was trying to rub her into his body.
Tao Wan's waist was soft, so Yin Qingbai kneaded it.
"Okay, go back."
While his mother was wiping her tears, Yin Qingbai lowered his head and secretly kissed Tao Wan on the face.
Tao Wan's face was ice cold, so Yin Qingbai let her go, warmed his hands and covered her face: "Wear a mask next time you go out."
"Um."
Tao Wan took off Yin Qingbai's hand and held it: "Wear gloves next time."
"I know." Yin Qingbai raised the corner of his mouth and led Tao Wan out of the station.
When Liu Yan came home, she had already rolled out the noodles. She got the dumplings off the car and put the noodles into the hot pot, and they were ready.
People here on the peninsula eat braised noodles, which are white noodles boiled in boiling water. They are smooth and chewy. They are topped with cabbage and egg braised noodles. The flavor of soybean paste inside is fragrant and moderately salty.
"Are you reluctant to eat and drink? Qingbai, why have you lost weight?"
Liu Yan looked at Yin Qingbai's body, looking at Duanxiang from the left and right, but she felt that it was much thinner.
Tao Wan also nodded: "I have lost weight."
"That's right, you kid, you've already said that a poor family has a way to get rich. How could a big boy like you be wronging yourself outside?"
Liu Yan was heartbroken.
"I haven't eaten enough, mother. I have a subsidy from the school and I have enough to eat. I haven't worked for too long and my meat has fallen apart."
Yin Qingbai is not only learning college stuff this semester, but also high school stuff.
The teaching resources in the town are not good. He has forgotten all the English he learned in high school. Now he is learning from scratch. His head is big.
He studied all day long, and even though Qin Cheng sometimes asked him to play basketball, he wouldn't necessarily go.
"I have gradually become a cultural person. You have seen that cultural person who is as strong as my father."
Yin Guofu is shorter than Yin Qingbai, but he has worked in the farm all his life and has a stocky physique.
Yin Guofu hit Yin Qingbai on the head with his chopsticks: "You have become so capable that even your father dares to tell you!"
Yin Qingbai rubbed against Tao Wan, a bit like a big dog.
Tao Wan really wanted to put down her chopsticks and touch her head.
He couldn't afford to offend his own father. Yin Qingbai looked at Yin Hongfeng who was sitting at the side eating: "Why don't you talk anymore? How did you do in the Chinese New Year exam? Do you have a certificate?"
When Yin Qingbai left, he told Yin Hongfeng to study hard. If he didn't do well in the exam, he would have his butt smashed.
