Lin's mother was a well-educated person in the countryside, but her parents were no longer there. Because her family was not well and she could not return to the city, she married the honest Lin Youcai and settled down in Xiangyang Village.

However, she was not willing to be ordinary. When the spring wind of reform and opening up spread throughout the north and south of the river, she still chose the path that she believed was right.

When she ran away from home, she left a tearful letter saying that she had had enough of the hard times in the countryside and wanted to live a good life in a big city.

Father searched the communes for four or five days with the letter in his hand. He had run all the way to the bottom, but he still couldn't find her.

After returning home in a daze, he dug out the red girl that he had buried in the yard for twenty years and had planned to start drinking on the day of Ringpelin's wedding.

Drunk, sleeping in the patio all night, since that silent, often with a kind smile father no longer, every day drunk everywhere to shout like crazy.

At the beginning, the villagers were still full of sympathy, but after seeing Lin Pelan look for Lin Youcai who was drunk to a pulp so many times, the sympathy had turned into gossip, and there was even a hint of schadenfreude.

Rinperan's engagement last year was due to be married in a month's time. The target was the childhood sweetheart who grew up next door, Li Wenjie.

After graduating from high school, Li Wenjie had already worked at the town's government office for more than a year. He had been eating food and was always the best son-in-law in the village.

Ringpelin was the only junior high school graduate in the village, and his father had a craftsmanship as a carpenter, so he could get money.

In addition, after she graduated from junior high school, Lin Pilan went to the tea factory to work. In the beginning, it was just tea, and it was only stir-frying. In four years, she could already be considered as a top tea chef.

The two were childhood friends, and their relationship was pretty good. Everyone thought that it was a beautiful thing, but who would have thought that Lin Peran's mother ran off with someone else? Rumors spread for a few days, and the Li family came to end the engagement.

Now that the dust had settled, she and Li family's Li family's Li Wenjie would no longer have any interaction.

Rinperan was to be kept for two days. On Sundays, Lin did not go to school, nor did he go out as usual to help with the pigweed and chickens at home.

His little buddies were not trapped by their families, but were working behind him, and even a few of the Ringpelins were eating the grass they had dug.

As soon as Ringpelin's head cleared, she went to work on the ground and was about to plant the seedlings. She had to do more work at home before the teahouse started working these past few days.

Lin Youcai did not drink again the day after Lin Pei-lan broke off the engagement. He only worked in silence, looking as though he hadn't changed at all.

Regarding the boasting in front of the Li family members that day, Lin Pei Lan was not confident either. However, when she thought of the Li family members' ugly faces, she hardened her heart.

Just because of this, she couldn't admit defeat.

Her aunt would usually help the village's young girls to introduce the marriage. She had a wide range of connections, and in the past two days, she had really gone out to meet Lin Pilan for her wedding.

Just as he was pouring the pig food into the wooden basin in the pigsty, he suddenly remembered his aunt's shout.

"Peran! Ah, Peran! There's good news! "

"He's here!"

When Rinperan came out with the bucket, he saw his aunt picking up the teapot and pouring water into her mouth.

After drinking for a while, she wiped her mouth and beamed, "This is great news!" Now you can also be proud of yourself! "

"Aunt, what's the good news?" Rinperan put down the bucket and asked.

"Let me tell you! The old man from the town's supply agency, his son was 27 this year, and his daughter-in-law died in childbirth last year.

I told them about your situation. They were willing to take a look first.

Let me tell you, their family is much better than the one next door! " Aunt said mysteriously.

"This... That's not good! "

It was true that an older man was to be found, and it did not occur to Ringpelin to marry a widower with a child.

"What's so bad about that!" The supply and marketing company was a place with a lot of oil and water. If you were to marry them, you would definitely be able to dig out food from the Li family.

That son of his also works in that public tea shop in the town. His monthly salary is over thirty yuan!

Furthermore, he already has a son, so there's no pressure at all for you to not care about having children in the future. "

The family conditions are good, but to be a stepmother, Ringpelin is not very interested.

However, after running so diligently for two days, Lin Pilan was too embarrassed to refuse, so she made an appointment and the two of them looked at each other at the movie theater in the town.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day they saw each other. Lin Pilan deliberately cut a cut on her forehead that covered it with her bangs before leaving with her aunt.

It was almost the Dragon Boat Festival, and there were many people who picked the glutinous rice grains to process. Lin Pailan and her aunt went to town for the sake of processing glutinous rice dumplings.

Putting the grain at the processing station, Aunt gave instructions before she came to work on it. She then dragged Rimperan to the cinema.

It was the middle of the morning, and there were quite a lot of people coming and going on the streets. Boys with long hair and wearing bell-bottoms were running about the streets, arms around each other's shoulders.

When he saw a young girl, he whistled with pursed lips, regardless of whether the other person looked at him or not.

"Sister, you're so beautiful!"

"That's right, that's right!" "So handsome …"

"Go go!" I didn't see any adults around! "A few lackeys, go away!" His aunt scolded him rudely. To these idle men in town, no one would give him face.

Without looking at the bold boys, Ringpelin looked down at his toes. He suddenly realized that the soles of his liberated shoes had been burnt a hole in the soles of his feet. It was too late to change them now.

"These shameless things! "Nonsense, he's not going to the factory to work, he's going to earn at least a few dozen yuan a month!"

After her aunt had scolded her for a while, Rinperan did not respond. Instead, he quietly followed her.

After turning a corner, Aunt started chatting with someone else. Listening to Aunt's warm words, it was clear that she was very familiar with that person.

"His aunt is here too! Isn't this the Dragon Boat Festival? Since the Old Granny is going to send dumplings to all the aunties, I have to prepare the glutinous rice in advance. I brought Second Uncle's niece here! "

"This ceremony cannot be taken lightly! "My family's Dragon Boat Festival is filled with good things, a dozen dumplings, cuttlefish, and light dishes can't be lacking …"

From the corner of her eye, Ringpelin saw a woman in her late forties or early fifties, with permed hair and a black satchel in her hand. From time to time she would glance over at Ringpelin, and he would look away from her.

When the conversation finally stopped, Aunt finally came over to introduce her to the woman.
