Chapter 173: Returning to Hometown to Transfer Household Registration

Ye Jibai carried two large bags, and Lin Weiwan followed behind with a bag on his back. The journey was safe, and the two went straight to Dongsheng Village.

Ye’s mother took care of everything in Beijing. After Lin Weiwan’s household registration was transferred, they returned to Beijing to hold the wedding.

The weather was getting warmer, and Ye Jibai borrowed a bicycle from someone in the city. As soon as they entered the village, they were seen by the aunties who were stationed at the entrance of the village all year round.

Seeing that it was almost noon, they went straight to the village chief’s house.

Li Changgui saw Lin Weiwan’s heart burst into tears. It seemed that something was missing when this girl was not in the village.

“Uncle Li is back.” Lin Weiwan greeted directly.

The village chief’s wife put the freshly filled malted milk on the table.

“Come in and sit down.” Aunt Li pulled Lin Weiwan into the house. She liked this girl from the bottom of her heart. Looking at the cigarettes and wine on the table, she didn’t say anything else.

The girl was beautiful and capable, much better than those new educated youth in the countryside.

“Uncle Li, I came to you this time hoping that you can help me with the formalities. Comrade Lin and I have obtained the certificate, and we are ready to leave.” Ye Jibai took out a cigarette and handed it to the village chief.

He wiped the sweat off his head and took the cigarette handed over by Ye Jibai. “What’s the big deal? I will go to get the certificate in the afternoon. You can come to the village committee to get some.”

Lin Weiwan sat there, thinking about the house in the educated youth site. The original agreement was that you can live there as long as you want, but the house will eventually belong to the village.

In this case, Lin Weiwan is not going to give it to others at a low price, and will just give it to Wang Qiaoyun.

“Uncle Li, I want to talk to you about the house. I want to leave my house to Wang Qiaoyun, the educated youth in the educated youth site. You also know that we have a good relationship. Of course, if there is a chance that Wang Qiaoyun returns to the city, the house will still belong to our Dongsheng Village.”

Li Changgui nodded. The villagers could not live in the house in the educated youth site. After all, it was full of educated youth. It didn’t matter to him which educated youth lived there.

Lin Zhiqing always speaks nicely. Now that he has a good relationship with everyone, Lin Zhiqing’s status is not ordinary, so he naturally has to do a favor.

“What else can I say? You have the final say over your house. Don’t worry, I will take good care of her and that kid surnamed Shen.” Li Changgui readily agreed.

When Lin Weiwan and Ye Jibai entered the educated youth point, they found that new educated youths were assigned this year.

Wang Qiaoyun came out to get water and saw Lin Weiwan at a glance. She put down the basin and ran over.

“You are back. I miss you.” Wang Qiaoyun was telling the truth.

After Lin Weiwan left, she really couldn’t talk to others. The two new female educated youths were even more powerful than when they came. They walked with their necks raised and their tails erect every day.

She was almost suffocated. She could only chat with Shen Minghua for a few words, but one lived in the front yard and the other in the back yard. There was a strict separation between men and women, so she couldn’t run to the back yard every day.

In her free time, she could only read books to relieve her boredom, so as not to say something wrong and quarrel with others.

“I miss you too. How are you doing recently?” Lin Weiwan glanced at Wang Qiaoyun and found that the girl seemed to have gained some weight recently.

“Not bad. Besides working in the fields, I read books. Occasionally I go to the mountains to see if I can get something to eat.” Wang Qiaoyun has become more open-minded since she went to the countryside.

She followed her brother from the countryside to Haishi before, and then went to the countryside again. Now she seems to have let it go and no longer struggles with her life.

The two chatted as they walked to the backyard. Shen Minghua was chopping wood at the door and saw Lin Weiwan and Ye Jibai coming back. He also came over happily to chat.

The only missing member of the backyard team was Comrade Hu Xiaopang.

When they opened the door, there was a layer of dust in the room. Several people divided the work and cleaned it up quickly. After all, the room was small, so Lin Weiwan put away everything before leaving.

Ye Jibai went back and forth to the front yard to fetch water, and Shen Minghua helped Lin Weiwan light the fire in the big stove.

The kang will be very cold and damp if it is not lit for a long time.

The small house was originally cold and became lively because of the busyness of the four people.

Lin Weiwan took out the bag of food from the box. He quickly cooked the meal because Shen Minghua and Wang Qiaoyun still had to go to work in the afternoon.

The four of them simply ate the pickled vegetables that Lin Weiwan had pickled earlier.

The two went to work, and Ye Jibai went up the mountain with a hatchet. Lin Weiwan took a fishing rod and went to the river to fish. Prepare for the four people’s dinner in the evening.

After fishing, Lin Weiwan tied two carps weighing more than three pounds each with straw ropes to the village chief and the team leader. He took his certificate and walked towards the educated youth point.

Back at the educated youth point, Lin Weiwan checked the things in the house and made sure that there was nothing out of the ordinary before he felt relieved.

He took out the luggage bag that he and Ye Jibai brought back, which contained meat and some wrapping cloth specially bought from the city.

There was a lot of meat, more than ten pounds, and Lin Weiwan cut more than three pounds to make braised pork in the evening.

The rest was prepared for Shen Minghua and Wang Qiaoyun. Although it was not much, it was fat enough.

It didn’t matter whether it was boiled into lard and oil to eat for a longer time or cooked it in any way.

He took out two more cloth bags and packed some commonly used medicines, one for Shen Minghua and one for Wang Qiaoyun.

In the evening, Ye Jibai came back with a bamboo basket on his back, and Lin Weiwan was already cooking.

Wang Qiaoyun was washing up in the front yard, and the aroma of stewed meat in the backyard came over.

“Wow… It smells so good.” Chu Huan couldn’t help but sighed as he smelled the meat smell floating in the air.

Liu Yanli put the washbasin on the table with a “bang…”.

“What’s the matter, isn’t it just stewed meat?”

Chu Huan glanced at Liu Yanli and turned to wash clothes.

Liu Yanli looked out the back window to the backyard, and saw the man who had just returned taking out a pheasant from a bamboo basket and slaughtering it.

She couldn’t help but frown. Who is this person? He is so powerful. He just came back to stew meat and catch chickens in the mountains.

That woman is so lucky to find such a powerful and handsome man.

She couldn’t help but curl her lips, looking at the big kang in the house, and decided to go to the backyard to talk.

It seems that the backyard is not short of money, and the house will not be wasted if she leaves.

Maybe I can move in with some money, which is better than sleeping on the same kang with a bunch of people. I can bump into people if I swing my arms when I fall asleep.

Wang Qiaoyun washed and changed her clothes, put the wild vegetables she picked from the mountain into the basket, and took the four eggs she exchanged from Aunt Li. She walked to the backyard.

Liu Yanli saw Wang Qiaoyun taking things to the backyard and quickly stopped her.

“What are you doing?” Liu Yanli’s eyes were on the basket of vegetables that Wang Qiaoyun was carrying.

You don’t think you can ask for a house just by carrying some mountain ferns, celery and monkey leg vegetables.

“What I do is none of your business.” Wang Qiaoyun looked up at the new Liu Yanli.

She is everywhere, asking questions about everything and taking care of everything. What does she think of herself? Even reading a book will be ridiculed.

“Isn’t this asking you in the same room? What can’t you say?” Liu Yanli rolled her eyes at Wang Qiaoyun and hurried back to the house to get the money.

Wang Qiaoyun walked to the backyard, put down the vegetables and let Lin Weiwan help.

The fragrance from the backyard wafted out one after another, and the greedy educated youth in the front yard almost bit off their tongues.
