Chapter 2: Sister’s job?
During the meal, the family chatted about the progress of the construction of the house.
More than half a month has passed since Lin Ran arrived in Shaanxi.
"Our construction period is already very fast. The foundation has been laid, and we are ready to put down the pillars and then start building the house." Father Lin looked very happy when he mentioned the construction progress of the new house.
He originally thought he would be reluctant to leave his ancestral home, but as his new home appeared in front of him step by step, he also felt the joy of moving.
"Speaking of your house, I'm so envious!" Widow Wang put down her bowls and chopsticks and said, "Hey, your family is the first one in the village to buy a homestead, and you get the biggest discount. If you sell it now, you will be compensated for the small amount of land per acre. It’s five dollars.”
The construction of a house by Lin Ran's family attracted the attention of the neighbors. They couldn't help but feel envious when they saw the scene of building the foundation.
Most people's houses were built 20 years ago, and some are dilapidated. However, no one dares to take the initiative to change their houses. This is because of the serious conservative mentality.
After Lin Ran's family set an example, the relocation work in the village went much more smoothly, with 40% of the families joining the plan.
The village chief was also very grateful to Lin Ran's family for their help. Baimao's project entered the village without any obstruction. It can be said that everything went smoothly.
"Old Lin still has vision!" Widow Wang gave Father Lin a thumbs up.
Father Lin said sheepishly: "Actually, I don't want to move either. It was my son who strongly requested it."
"No wonder, your son is so promising. He has been busy during this period. He has grown up and become the backbone of the family." Widow Wang looked at Father Lin with envy.
If he had a son, he would be around this age, which is a pity.
There was a look of sadness in his eyes, which Lin Ran had never seen before.
Lin Ran took a chicken foot and gave it to Widow Wang: "Aunt Wang, if you need anything in the future, just come to us. We are all relatives, so please don't let us go outside."
"Yes." Widow Wang nodded heavily and said with a smile, "Xiaoran has really grown up."
Jingle Bell.
At this moment, a bicycle bell sounded in the yard.
Several people looked up and saw Lin Wanjun riding a [-]-inch sedan parked in the yard.
Lin Wanjun's face looked very tired, and she sighed, obviously working very hard.
"Sister." Lin Ran stood up and called to Lin Wanjun who walked into the house.
Lin Wanjun was stunned for a moment, then quickly ran to Lin Ran and pinched his face.
"What are you doing?" Lin Ran pushed his sister's hand away, feeling a stinging pain on his cheek.
"I'll see if I'm dreaming."
"Then you should pinch your own face!"
"Aren't they all the same?"
The two sang together and made everyone at the table amused.
His sister's suppression of his brother's bloodline was clearly reflected in him.
Lin Wanjun returned to the room, took off her business clothes and put on home clothes, but there were still a lot of sweat beads on her forehead.
Lin Ran served her a bowl of rice and asked with concern: "Sister, what are you doing in the department store? Is it hard?"
"I'm just a salesperson, selling pagers." Lin Wanjun said, "But it's not hard, so it's okay."
Although she said this, the tired expression on her face when she came back was not hidden from Lin Ran.
"Pageer? Is it a bb machine?" Lin Ran asked.
"Yes, I sell bb machines in the department store. The life of rich people is really good. As long as you have this thing, you can contact them at any time." Lin Wanjun said enviously.
In this era, the mainstream mobile communication device is the bb machine, which can only be regarded as an accessory product of the telephone.
But the price of bb machine is very expensive, and most people can't afford it. A better bb machine even costs 2000 yuan, such as the Motorola used by Yang Jianlong.
"Sister, do you know anything about electronic equipment?" Lin Ran asked with a smile. Knowing that Lin Wanjun had never even used a fan, it seemed a bit embarrassing for her to sell bb machines.
"Can't you learn if you don't understand?" Lin Wanjun glared at Lin Ran.
Of course, Lin Ran was not laughing at his sister, but said with concern: "Sister, are you worried that you won't be able to adapt to work?"
Lin Wanjun smiled knowingly: "It's okay, sister is not a child. Besides, you are already working, so sister can't be idle, right?"
"Yes, yes, Lao Lin, you are really blessed to have this pair of siblings." Widow Wang interrupted their conversation and gave Lin Wanjun chicken drumsticks: "You and your brother have one each. You must supplement your nutrition so that you have the energy to work. .”
"Thank you, Auntie." Lin Wanjun smiled and took the chicken leg.
Girls these days don’t have to worry about losing weight. After all, the daily physical work is hard enough.
"Sister, you didn't feel wronged working in the department store, did you?" Lin Ran asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, who is your sister? Can she still be bullied by others?"
"That's right, Xiaoran, you should also believe in sister." Lin's father saw the two siblings bickering, but he could hear Lin Ran's concern, and he felt very relieved.
Nowadays, living conditions are not good, and siblings in many families will quarrel or even turn against each other because of uneven distribution.
He had always been worried that this kind of thing would happen to his home, but now it seemed that he was overthinking it.
The dinner passed in a pleasant atmosphere. I asked many questions about Lin Ran's work abroad. Lin Ran also took out the jade he bought from the Zhuque Art and Toy Market and gave it to his sister.
"Sister, this monkey jade pendant is given to you. It can be used to ward off evil spirits and protect yourself." This is the only souvenir he bought, not to find out the missing items, but because his sister's zodiac sign is monkey.
I also gave some souvenirs I bought to my parents to express my filial piety.
The family members seemed very happy to receive the gifts.
However, Lin Ran was very tired after a day of running around. After taking a shower, he fell asleep early.
The bed at home was much harder than the bed in the guest house, but within 2 minutes of lying down, Lin Ran fell asleep.
A golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse, that's true.
The next morning, it was dark. Since he went to bed early yesterday, Lin Ran woke up early in the morning.
But his parents woke up earlier, and his father had to work in the fields. It was almost autumn and he was going to plant a season of vegetables to sell.
"Xiaoran, are you up so early? Don't you want to sleep for a while?" The parents made breakfast. They had already eaten and were ready to go out to work.
"I still have something to deal with today." Lin Ran finished the porridge in a few mouthfuls, and then his sister got up from the bed.
"Sister, please go to work and pay attention to your safety later." Lin Ran warned Lin Wanjun before going out.
Lin Wanjun looked at Lin Ran sleepily: "It's so early, where are you going?"
"Go make money." Lin Ran turned around and gave Lin Wanjun a bright smile.
He wasn't just pretending, after all, he was going to split the money today.
And it’s still a lot of money, so how can you not be happy!
