Age: My Small World

Chapter 139 Words in the Letter
Feixian, in the yard next to the school.

At this moment, a young girl was walking slowly while stroking a stool.

Although Jiang Xueying has recovered well after the surgery, she still has to walk slowly and cannot recover all at once.

She was in good condition when she got off the bus last time, but after returning home she felt a little weaker and her legs occasionally felt weak.

According to the doctor, she still has an observation period. She may experience occasional weakness in her legs within half a year, but she can recover by walking slowly. There is no need to go to the hospital for another check-up.

"He got the letter I wrote, but I don't know if he's read it yet. I wonder if he's found the message I left for him."

A blush appeared on Jiang Xueying's oval face.

But he didn't know what he was thinking about, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Classmate Cheng Xiaoyu is really inseparable from him." She seemed to be whispering.

Fanjiazhuang.

When Yang Jun returned home, it was time for dinner.

Corn porridge is a thing of the past, and sweet potato porridge has become the mainstream.

The chopped sweet potatoes and a little cornmeal were cooked into a thin porridge that was not very thick. When you scooped it with a spoon, you could almost see the bottom of the spoon.

He couldn't help but pause when he saw this.

There is enough food in my own small world, but I have no excuse to take it out.

On the contrary, it's easier to find an excuse to send it to Mr. Hu...

Um, wait, Mr. Hu?

This seems to work.

"Next time I go to the city, I'll talk to Master about it. Now it's settled."

His purpose was nothing more than to use Mr. Hu's identity to get the food back, and then let Mr. Hu take the blame.

"Baby, why don't you eat it? Is it not tasty? I even added a spoonful of sugar for you."

Adding sugar to sweet potato porridge is an old tradition, and the sweet porridge actually tastes pretty good.

"It's delicious, mom. You and second sister should eat quickly too."

A bowl of sweet potato porridge and a plate of wild vegetable pickles, the days are back to the old days.

Li Xiaohua said worriedly, "I don't know if your sister is getting enough to eat at the factory. I heard the food there isn't very good."

After the peak period, and with the current food shortage, the food supply there has also decreased a lot.

But Yang Jun was not worried at all and said, "Mom, don't worry about it. Big sister and the others are eating at the factory. They have thick rice and can eat it. There is no need for us to worry about her."

"That's right, elder sister still has a salary. If she can't make ends meet, she can just buy food." Yang Yumei now unconsciously envied Yang Hongmei.

She is almost eighteen years old and wants to be a glorious worker, but unfortunately there are too few opportunities.

Yang Hongmei's side was also a coincidence.

If their family had not had a vacancy at the steel plant last time, it would have been very difficult for them to find a worker, and they could only look forward to Yang Jun's future.

Things are different now. Yang Hongmei has a formal job, and Yang Yumei is so jealous that she also wants to work in the factory.

But this iron rice bowl is not something that can be obtained just by wanting it, and she estimates that it is very difficult.

Yang Jun couldn't think of any way to send his second sister to eat commercial grain in a short period of time.

“Maybe there will be a chance next year.”

Although he doesn't want to see a scene like that happen next year, it is a historical inevitability and he cannot change it. He can only live with it.

"What food can we buy? There is no food at the grain station." I can see it clearly.

"Besides, her salary has to be saved for the family, so she can't spend it carelessly."

In response to this, Yang Jun said helplessly: "Mom, please at least leave some for my eldest sister. She is a grown-up girl after all."

Li Xiaohua rolled her eyes and said, "I didn't ask for it. Hongmei took it and put it home herself."

"Mom, if I can earn a salary in the future, I will save it for you." At this time, the second sister expressed her determination.

"Good girl, Erniu is also well-behaved." Yang Jun finally had to go into the house by himself, leaving the mother and daughter here to imagine having a second formal employee at home.

Back room.

Taking advantage of the remaining sunset, he took out the second letter without a date.

"Yang Jun, I'm back. On this day, I stood up..."

"You know what? The moment I stood up, I felt like my heart was about to burst out. That was a future filled with infinite hope..."

"If you see the letter, then we have an agreement to meet on December 1st, okay? I want to show you my miracle, and you will have a share of it too."

Finally, the location is attached, which is the City God Temple not far from the school.

"So it's an invitation. Is it for me to witness her standing up?"

Yang Jun's mouth curled up, he was also happy for the girl's success.

"You can go on December 1st."

December isn't far away now.

If Jiang Xueying had written this letter a little later, it would probably have been on January 1st.

In fact, she would look outside the house every day to see if a familiar figure would come to take the letter.

If Yang Jun still hasn't come by December, she will go and exchange the letter.

I believe that the big brother will not expose her.

"But why didn't she take the first letter?"

Yang Jun had already read the letter, but he always felt that he had missed something.

He took it out and read it again. After reading carefully, the words were still the same.

"wrong."

This time Yang Jun held the letter upright and read it.

People nowadays still stick to the old habit of writing letters from top to bottom rather than from left to right horizontally.

He changed to his usual way of reading, and indeed found something wrong.

"I missed you so much in the capital."

After reading the whole article, these seven words come into view.

There is a letter within a letter, which expresses this meaning.

Yang Jun was silent after reading it.

"As Jiang's only friend, it's normal for her to think of me." This was his explanation.

"Maybe she still misses the spiritual water. That's her painkiller."

When she thought about the time when she carried her back and fed her the spiritual water, the moment the pain faded away, she felt much more relaxed.

What made his heart flutter was that he also remembered the touch of cotton that was like a cloud.

Yang Jun quickly shook his head: "I am a gentleman, how could I think of such things? It's incomprehensible."

After the age of sixteen, boys have entered the real development stage. As teenagers, it is normal to have more youthful impulses.

Winter is getting colder and everyone is wrapping themselves tighter and tighter.

At the end of November, an announcement attracted a lot of attention.

"From now on, when you go shopping, you must bring your ticket with you, otherwise the salesperson won't give it to you." The person who made the announcement was deputy team leader Wang Chongxi.

It turned out that the usage of various bills was increasing, and now coal bills were required to buy coal.

What made Yang Jun feel a little regretful was that the sugar he had wanted to stock up on was also subject to purchase restrictions, and he needed sugar coupons to buy it.

"I should go to the provincial capital. The weather is getting colder. If I don't go now, it will be Chinese New Year."

After stamping his slightly cold feet, Yang Jun went to Uncle Fan's house to get a certificate.
