The cannon fodder female supporting role stirs up trouble in period literature

In the next few days, the two of them decorated the house together, creating a Chinese New Year atmosphere.

When Xia Yu was cooking, Hua Rendong was helping him. After eating and drinking, they went into the space to practice. They didn't do anything that a young couple should do, but their practice speed increased a lot.

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Hua Jindong, who had been practicing in the space for three consecutive days, was awakened by a knock on the door. She didn't want to pay attention to it, but after a knock on the door, a familiar voice came, "Sister, are you home?"

Hua Rendong thought for a long time before she remembered who the owner of the voice was. It was Xu Shengnan, the money-loser whom she met in the Xingzigou Brigade, who was later brought to Xinshi and arranged by her to work as a sanitation worker.

She came to my house to find me at this time. Could it be that she encountered some difficulties?

Hua Rendong had a good impression of Xu Shengnan, who was an independent and strong girl. When she went to Beijing, she didn't have time to visit her, so she just asked someone to bring a message to her, and she never paid any attention to this girl again after that.

I think she came to see me at this time because she knew that I had returned to Xinshi.

Hua Rendong came out of the space, opened the door, and saw Xu Shengnan outside the door. After not seeing her for several months, the little girl had grown a lot taller.

Hua Erhua is taller than the average girl. After she traveled through time, she has eaten well and practiced cultivation, so she is now 1.74 meters tall. Xu Shengnan, who was originally short, is now as tall as her and is almost 1.7 meters tall.

Even her face had more flesh, and she was no longer as thin as a bamboo pole as before. Her face also had the confidence and composure of a city girl, and she looked like a pretty young lady.

"Why are you here?" Hua Rendong let him in with a smile, then locked the gate from the inside. "Come on, come in with me and warm up."

Xu Shengnan was holding Hua Rendong's hand. Her little hands felt cold, but the cotton jacket on her body was obviously new. Hua Rendong touched it and found it was quite thick. It was obvious that the girl was living well.

Xu Shengnan said, "Sister, I heard that you went to Beijing before, and I didn't know when you would be back, so I came to check on you from time to time after work. I happened to see that your door was not locked, so I thought you were back, so I came to knock on the door to check."

As soon as I entered the door, I felt the chill in my face, which showed that my home was not much warmer than outside.

Xu Shengnan looked at Hua Jindong with pity, thinking that she didn't know how to make a fire, so she went to find firewood and started the fire silently.

Hua Rendong felt a little guilty. She had been practicing in the space with Xia Yu these days and had actually forgotten to light a fire and heat the kang. When she was caught by the little girl, she must have thought that she was living a miserable life all day long.

Knowing that Xu Shengnan was not encountering any difficulties, Hua Rendong felt relieved and asked about her recent situation. She learned that she no longer lived in the dormitory of the textile factory, but rented a small house outside for five yuan a month. Although it was not big, it could shelter her from the wind and rain, and she got along well with her neighbors.

After the stepmother married He Baohua, she took care of her own children and He Baohua's children while secretly taking on some small jobs like washing clothes. Although she didn't earn much, she could still make a few dollars a month.

He Baohua was also very good to her. He gave most of his monthly salary to her and let her take care of the family's food and drink. The children also got along with her like real mother and son.

Even when she bought things for Xu Shengnan from time to time, He Baohua had no objection.

Of course, Xu Shengnan didn't take these things for nothing. She would often buy some food and drinks to visit the He family. She would also buy some erasers and notebooks for He Baohua's two children, treating them as relatives.

Hua Rendong was very happy for Xu Shengnan. She also heard that she no longer swept the streets. After studying in a literacy class for a period of time, she had learned most of the necessary words. For the rest, she bought a Xinhua Dictionary and recognized the words one by one by looking at newspapers she found at the scrap yard.

Because of her serious work attitude and the relationship with Honeysuckle, she has been transferred to the library as an administrator, and the nature of her job has suddenly changed.

Hua Rendong didn't know about this yet, and was quite surprised when she told him about it. Not everyone can be a librarian. First of all, one must have a certain level of education. Someone like Xu Shengnan, who has never read a book and only studied in literacy classes, definitely cannot do it. And the fact that she can work there must be related to herself.

But what does it matter? It's good that she has the ability to help those she wants to help.

Xu Shengnan said, "Sister, I have been reading when I have nothing to do. I look up the Xinhua Dictionary for words I don't know. I have learned a lot of words recently, so reading books and newspapers are no longer a problem. I also found a teacher to learn math, physics and chemistry. Although it is still very difficult, it will get better slowly in the future."

Hua Rendong calculated the girl's salary, which was only more than 20 yuan a month. The rent was 5 yuan, and the teacher's monthly salary was at least 5 yuan, right? The remaining 10 yuan must be very hard to live on, but with such perseverance, I believe her future will have unlimited possibilities.

"Shengnan is a good girl. I believe you will achieve great things in the future."

She sounded a little excited when she spoke, and her encouragement was like a powerful force that made Shengnan's back straighten even more.

After lighting the fire and entering the house, Xu Shengnan took out a wrinkled oil-paper bag from her pocket, opened it and revealed a red scarf inside, "Sister, I don't have anything good to thank you for. I bought this scarf last fall, and I didn't expect to give it to you now. Please don't despise it."

Looking at the wear and tear of the oil paper bag, one could tell that the girl had been carrying the scarf with her all the time, regardless of whether she needed it or not. It was a gift from the girl's heart. Hua Honeysuckle gladly accepted it and tied it around her neck. Xu Shengnan's eyes obviously lit up.

Xu Shengnan was about to leave after sitting for a while, but Hua Rendong couldn't let her go like that. She took her to a state-owned restaurant outside for a meal.

Xu Shengnan was embarrassed at first, but after being pressed down forcefully by Hua Rendong, she stopped struggling. She just looked at Hua Rendong with admiration in her eyes. Hua Rendong had the illusion that she thought of him as her mother.

While eating, Xu Shengnan talked about the scene when she first met Hua Rendong. Thinking of the time when she and Xia Yu were chased and beaten by Xu Shengnan's stepmother, Hua Rendong couldn't help but laugh.

Xu Shengnan asked: "Sister, do you have a partner?"

Hua Rendong did not hide it, "Yes, I have it, it's the educated youth you met before."

Xu Shengnan still had a deep impression of Xia Yu. She smiled slyly when she heard this. "Sister, isn't that brother an educated youth? I've seen him before. There were a lot of people around him, some in uniform. I heard someone call him the boss. He must be a leader."

Hua Rendong knew Xu Shengnan was smart, so she didn't hide it from her, "Well, he is also my boss now, and we often go on business trips together."

Xu Shengnan was slightly startled, then she smiled even brighter, "I've long said that brother and sister are a good match, and I was right. This is what they call the one who is close to the water gets the moon first, right?"
