The Beginning of the World: Going to the Countryside as an Educated Youth

Chapter 215 Sun Lanhua's Decision

Zhao Dongchuan rode a bicycle with Runye and Lele, and they went to Guanzi Village to ask where Wang Manyin's home was.

Although Runye was very familiar with Shaoan and Shaoping, this was her first time visiting Wang Manyin's house, so naturally she didn't recognize them.

Following the guidance of the villagers and with the village children playing in front leading the way, they soon arrived at Wang Manyin's house.

This is a small cave. Although it is a bit old, it is very clean.

Lanhua was wielding a hoe to tend to her private plot in the corner of the yard. Since the implementation of the responsibility system in Guanzi Village, she has worked with greater enthusiasm than before.

But she is a woman after all, and cannot do heavy work. She can only rely on her tenacity to persevere.

Fortunately, Guanzi Village is very close to Shuangshui Village, and her father and brother would come to help her when the farm work was most stressful.

With heavy and painful hearts, they carefully hoe the Lanhua family's land, leaving no corner untouched, just to reduce the burden on Lanhua.

"Sister Lanhua..."

"Hey, Runye, Xiaozhao, why are you here..."

Lanhua put down the hoe in her hand, wiped the sweat from her head, and looked at the two of them with a little surprise.

"Sister Lanhua, we just came down from Shigejie Street and bought some school supplies for Maodan and Goudan... We're bringing them to you!"

When they heard that this uncle was bringing them stationery, Maodan and Goudan, who were playing in the mud, looked over immediately and wanted to take the stationery without even washing their hands.

"Hey, Maodan, take your brother to wash his hands..."

Lanhua saw this and immediately called out to stop.

"Xiao Zhao, Runye, we have already received a lot of money from your family, but we can't take your things anymore..."

"The Manyin side is fifty dollars, and you also gave me fifty dollars, which makes a total of one hundred dollars. If it weren't for the fact that my two children need to go to school and I owe money, I really wouldn't want to take it..."

As Lanhua spoke, tears were about to fall.

She didn't understand what stamp collection Wang Manyin and Zhao Dongchuan were talking about. She only knew that each stamp cost only a few cents, so how could they charge a hundred dollars?

But when Manyin told her, he had already spent all the money... When Zhao Dongchuan came to find her later, a creditor happened to come to collect the debt, and she said that it was a loan, so she accepted it...

Thinking of this, she said excitedly: "Xiao Zhao, I will pay you back your money slowly later..."

"Sister Lanhua, I really like that stamp. It's very rare and a hundred yuan is not expensive... Actually, I'm getting a good deal..."

Lanhua just thought he was comforting herself and didn't believe it.

Maodan and Goudan had also washed their hands by this time, and ran over skipping and jumping, looking at Zhao Dongchuan eagerly.

"Come on, take it..."

Zhao Dongchuan touched the two children's heads and handed pencils, exercise books, erasers, rulers and other stationery to the elder sister Maodan.

"Maodan, you're the older sister, you make the arrangements..."

Maodan is already attending primary school in Guanzi Village, and his younger brother Goudan will also go to primary school next year. The stationery he bought will come in handy.

"Sister Lanhua, where is Wang Manyin?"

Zhao Dongchuan looked around the yard but found no trace of Wang Manyin.

"Ah...he..."

Speaking of Wang Manyin, Lanhua could no longer restrain herself. Her face was filled with sorrow, and she said with a wry smile, "My husband has gone out to do business. He said that now that he is free, he wants to make money..."

"Forehead……"

Well, Zhao Dongchuan should have guessed it long ago...

With Wang Manyin's "prodigal son's physique", it would be a miracle if he could stay at home obediently at this time!

He thought for a while and said, "Sister Lanhua, your man Wang Manyin likes to do business. I also want to do some business recently, so I want him to help me... Since he is not here now, wait for him to come back and ask him to come to me..."

Zhao Dongchuan paused, as if he had thought of something, and continued, "You can also consider doing business with me. It will definitely make more money than farming... It's not easy for a woman like you to do this..."

Runye listened quietly without interrupting.

She unconditionally supports Zhao Dongchuan in his career.

She believed in Zhao Dongchuan's business acumen...

He mentioned this to Runye on the way here. Although she didn't know much about business, she knew how to be a good wife.

She just held Lele in her arms and put the lively boy on the ground, letting him play with his brothers and sisters.

In fact, she knew that Zhao Dongchuan was not only doing business but also wanted to make Lanhua's family live a better life.

This kindness is exactly what she values ​​in Zhao Dongchuan.

"I?"

"I... I can't, I can't..."

When Lanhua heard that Zhao Dongchuan wanted to get her to do business together, she quickly declined.

"Sister Lanhua, don't worry. I have a way to get the popular clothes and sunglasses... I will take care of the store and the goods, and you will sell them. Not only will I get a salary, but I will also give you a bonus if you sell them..."

"Don't worry, whether you sell it or not, you will get paid... With your salary, you can buy food on the street... buy clothes and delicious food for your children..."

Lanhua was somewhat tempted by what she heard, but she still didn't dare to agree to it... As a woman who had been farming for many years, she really didn't dare to make such a "heretical" decision.

Zhao Dongchuan saw Lanhua's hesitation and smiled, "Sister Lanhua, you don't have to agree to me so quickly. Think about it again... You can discuss it with Shaoan and your father... and then answer me..."

Lanhua nodded silently, her mind in a mess... her heart pounding, she knew this was an opportunity, an opportunity to change her destiny!

…………

The next day at noon, Sun Shaoan brought his younger brother Sun Shaoping and their eldest sister Sun Lanhua to his house.

"Xiao Zhao...my sister has told us...we couldn't even think of such a good thing..."

Shaoan came in and without even drinking a sip of water, he anxiously pulled Zhao Dongchuan and talked.

"Yes, Brother Zhao, I know it will work as soon as I hear it... We all believe in you... No matter what, we want my sister to give it a try... It's better than farming..."

Sun Shaoping also said happily on the side.

Zhao Dongchuan smiled and nodded. He looked at Lanhua and smiled slightly and said, "Sister Lanhua, what do you think?"

"I...I...I do!"

Lanhua hesitated for a moment, but ultimately her yearning for a better life overcame her inner hesitation.

"it is good……"

"As long as you are willing..."

Zhao Dongchuan said and nodded.

"Once I have arranged everything during this period, I will have someone bring you a letter..."

"Uh-huh……"

The Sun brothers were happier to see that their sister was finally going to escape from her suffering than if they had earned money themselves.

Overjoyed, he thanked Zhao Dongchuan...

"Brother Shaoan, if you have any ideas, you can come to me... Let's do something together!"

Zhao Dongchuan said to Sun Shaoan with a smile.

"Well, I'll just forget it... I'm still living a decent life..."

Sun Shaoan smiled a little awkwardly. He hadn't thought about this yet. After the village implemented the responsibility system, he had hope. Now he only wanted to cultivate his own one-third acre of land well.
