According to the direction pointed by Li Jianbin, the messenger rode his bike to the door of Li's yard.
As no one was seen in the yard, the messenger stretched out his head and shouted several times, "is Comrade Li Jianshe at home?"
Mrs. Li Jianshe didn't come out. Mrs. Li heard the sound and saw an unknown young man standing in front of her yard. Mrs. Li came forward and said, "little comrade, who are you looking for?"
Seeing Mrs. Li, the messenger came in from outside the yard, "aunt, is this comrade Li Jianshe's home?"
Mrs. Li said, "yes, little comrade, what are you looking for Li Jianshe for?"
The messenger took out the letter from his bag. "I'm the postman of the commune. Someone sent a letter to Comrade Li Jianshe. I'll send it to him. Is Comrade Li Jianshe at home? If so, please shout for me."
Mrs. Li's eyes twinkled. "Little comrade, give me the letter. Li Jianshe is the third in my family. I'll hand it over to him for you later."
The messenger thought it was OK. He was about to give the letter to Mrs. Li. Li Jianshe came out of the house barefoot. "There's my letter? Where?"
The messenger looked at Li Jianshe suspiciously. "Are you Comrade Li Jianshe?"
Li Jianshe nodded. "It's me. I won't change my name or sit down. I'm Li Jianshe. Comrade, didn't you say you have my letter? Give it to me quickly."
He had been waiting for nearly a month and finally got the letter from the newspaper.
It was confirmed that he was Li Jianshe himself. The messenger gave him the letter originally intended for Mrs. Li. Li Jianshe took it and thanked the messenger. By the way, she asked the messenger how long it would take him to send the letter back from abroad.
The messenger said, "it depends on where the letter is. If it's your newspaper address, it takes about ten days to send it from there. If it's in our province, it can be delivered in seven days."
Li Jianshe said she understood. After repeatedly thanking the messenger, Li Jianshe sent the man away.
When he turned around, Li Jianshe found that old lady Li was still staring at him. Li Jianshe shivered, "Mom, what are you staring at me?"
Don't you know it's scary to stare at people?
Mrs. Li narrowed her eyes. "Who sent you the letter?" she didn't remember that the third knew people from other provinces.
"You don't know me either." Li Jianshe left this sentence and was ready to go back to open the letter.
However, he hasn't entered the house yet. Li Jianbin, who had left the brigade, came back and stopped him. "Third, the postman just said that a newspaper wrote you a letter. Did you get the letter?"
Li Jianshe turned and shook the envelope in his hand, "I got it."
"Just get it, but third, how can a newspaper from other provinces send you a letter?" Li Jianbin was really curious.
He wanted to know what the third child had done during his absence.
Fortunately, Li Jianshe has long thought about how to answer this question. Now when Li Jianbin asks, he opens his mouth and says: "It's nothing. Isn't this my dream recently? I dreamed that I was a senior official in my dream. I thought it was very fun. I told my daughter to write down the story for me and submit it. I thought it was a waste of stamp money. I didn't really want to write to me from the newspaper. Brother, do you think it's rare?"
Mrs. Li smiled angrily, "just like you, can you still be a senior official?"
Li Jianshe refused: "what's the matter? I'm not promising now, but maybe I was really a promising person in my last life. I'm just looking down on people..."
If he hadn't come to this damn place, he might have been shot.
Maybe he will really be the number one and become an official in two years.
"What beautiful dream do you have in the daytime? If you were a senior official in your last life, I was the queen mother in my last life." Mrs. Li argued.
Li Jianshe looked at Mrs. Li up and down, "Mom, if the queen mother grows up like you, she should cry. You'd better have fewer dreams and do more work."
Old lady Li choked. What did she look like? She looked OK when she was young, okay?
Li Jianbin didn't have time to listen to their quarrel. He hurriedly urged Li Jianshe to open the letter and see what was written inside.
With Li Jianbin, Li Jianshe was not afraid of old lady Li. She opened the envelope directly. In the envelope, in addition to a letter paper full of words, there was also a money order in it.
Li Jianshe didn't care about the money order. She took this letter paper and read it. However, Li Jianshe knew only a few words. After a cursory look, she folded the letter paper and planned to read it to Li Miaomiao when he came back.
At this time, Li Jianshe still wondered whether his story had been selected. His daughter didn't say that if it was selected, people would send him money back.
He has read the envelope twice. He was stunned that he didn't see a dime. Was he fooled?
When he was wondering, Li Jianbin saw the money order in his hand, but he was embarrassed to rob it, so he had to let Li Jianshe show it to him.
Li Jianbin took a deep breath when he looked at the figures on the remittance slip. His eyes became complicated. "Third, what story do you write that can be worth 20 yuan?"
"What?" Mrs. Li pricked her ears.
Li Jianshe's eyes are wide, "brother, are you serious?"
"Isn't it written on it?" Li Jianbin pointed to Li Jianshe. He knew the words on the list. After reading it, Li Jianshe smiled directly.
No wonder his daughter said that she made money by contributing. It turned out to be true.
But how do I get the money?
Li Jianbin was both envious and jealous. Seeing that Li Jianshe didn't understand anything, he told him how to take the money and what to bring when taking it.
Li Jianshe listened carefully, "thanks to you, brother. I really don't know if you're here or not."
"No one has remitted money to you before. It's normal if you don't know. You can't lose this list. If you lose 20 yuan, it's gone." Li Jianbin told me in detail.
Mrs. Li, who had been listening to their brothers, said at this time that she also wanted to see the remittance slip. She had not seen what it looked like.
Li Jianshe glanced at old lady Li, "Mom, don't look at it. If you tear it up for me, I'll lose 20 yuan. You'll compensate me then?"
This made Mrs. Li very angry. "You think I'm curious to see whether I love it or not."
"It's not impossible, but mom, stay away from me, right, look." Li Jianshe held the remittance slip high and asked Mrs. Li to look up.
The angry old lady Li hammered Li Jianshe several times, "hold it so high, I see fart, I see."
"You can't blame me. I showed you anyway."
Mrs. Li: the damned third wants to annoy her.
