Last time one pound of meat was not enough, so this time Ye Ning bought three pounds. One pound was eaten today, and the other two pounds were salted and kept for later consumption.
After a while, Ye Lan and Ye Gu came back. They were very happy to see their sister back.
“Sister, you are finally back.” Ye Gu knew that the college entrance examination was over, so he was looking forward to his eldest sister’s return every day.
“I went to the pharmaceutical factory to take the exam on the third day after the college entrance examination. Then I waited for the results and the interview. The time passed too fast. The old house did not make it difficult for you, right?”
She sold the land, and the people at the old house did not dare to provoke Er Mazi, so they would inevitably vent their anger on Ye Lan and the others.
“They dare.” Ye Lan raised her chin proudly.
Ye Gu sneaked close to Ye Ning and whispered: “Eldest sister, don’t listen to the second sister. She was trembling with fear that day!”
Trembling with fear? Ye Ning looked at Ye Lan, her face darkened, “Tell me clearly, what’s going on?”
Ye Lan glared at Ye Gu first, pursed her lower lip, and then said after a long time: “Grandma wanted to introduce me to someone, she said that my parents are not at home, and she, as the elder, has the right to make the decision. I was not trembling with fear, but with anger. Our grandma has died a long time ago, so what kind of elder is she? I just drove her out with a broom.”
Ye Ning patted Ye Lan’s back and said comfortingly: “You did the right thing. If she dares to talk nonsense next time, you should do the same. If anything happens, I’ll take care of you.”
The step-grandma was hateful and told Ye Ning to say the most hateful things. It was Old Man Ye who allowed his second wife to bully his child from his first wife.
“Remember these accounts first. The most important thing now is your high school entrance examination. When the high school entrance examination is over, we will find her to settle the general ledger together.”
Ye Ning pulled Ye Gu over and said, “Next time they come to our house, you can go to the party secretary to ask for help. There is the village chief and others who can also help.”
Ye Ning was worried that Ye Fangming and Ye Qinghe would not follow the rules. If they took action, Ye Lan would not be their opponent no matter how powerful she was. When they learned that Ye Ning had become a formal worker in the pharmaceutical factory and still worked in an office, the two siblings were extremely happy. Especially Ye Lan, who had been worried about it for a while, finally let go of her heart. She didn’t even say anything when she saw that her sister had bought so much meat, the eldest sister had become an official worker of the largest factory in the city, so it was time to celebrate by eating some meat. But when she saw the new clothes, Ye Lan couldn’t help but worry again.
“Sister, even if we have savings, we can’t spend so much. Xiao Gu and I haven’t worn out our clothes, so why should we buy new clothes?”
She couldn’t help but touch her clothes. She hadn’t had any new clothes since she was a child. And these clothes were so beautiful, she liked it very much, but she couldn’t have it. Ye Gu’s smile slowly faded, and he glanced at the new clothes. Although he was reluctant to part with them, he put them back, “I don’t want them either.”
“It’s different in the city and in the village. You get bullied if you wear too poor clothes. Besides, these clothes I bought are custom-made and I can’t return it, so put it away quickly.”
Seeing them like this, Ye Ning felt a little sour in her heart. Her two younger siblings were really sensible. Ye Lan carefully put away her clothes and said hesitantly: “Sister, did Brother Ping’an write to you?”
Brother Ping’an? Ye Ning was stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized that this was probably someone she knew. Sheng Ping’an, the grandson of the old professor who was sent to their place, was very good-looking, so when she was very young, she loved to follow him and would often bring him some food. The two of them said they were childhood sweethearts, but after she entered junior high school, their contacts gradually decreased. The old professor in 1979 was taken back, and Sheng Ping’an also left. She cried for a long time after she found out about it.
After she entered high school, she was fascinated by the prosperity of the city. Suddenly, Sun Yaojun appeared at the right time, and she got together with Sun Yaojun.
“No, how could he remember us?” Ye Ning searched her memory and found out that she had not heard from him since she received a letter announcing his admission to college in her second year of high school. “Why do you suddenly ask about him?”
“It’s nothing, I just remembered it suddenly.” Ye Lan shook her head.
