There is also spring for passers-by

Dr. Zhong asked, “Have you seen Marven Ye?”

"That child doesn't look like Ye Aihong or Xu Cheng, so it's no wonder Xu's mother is suspicious. Ye Aihong has beautiful big eyes with double eyelids. Xu Cheng has single eyelids, but they are standard big eyes. But Ye Wenting's single eyelids are not big. The most obvious difference is that one eye is larger than the other, very obvious."

Ye Aihong is not the kind of person who has an improper lifestyle. Her upbringing does not allow her to do such things.

At that time, when Xu Cheng found out about this, he wanted to send his mother back to the countryside, saying that she was making a fuss and bringing shame to them. How could she talk nonsense about such a thing?

The twin brothers of the Xu family also felt ashamed and threatened that if Xu's mother continued to act like this, they would send her back to the countryside to live with their second and third uncles.

Xu's mother was used to a life in the city with a nanny to take care of her, children and grandchildren around her, and fish and meat to eat without worrying about drink. How could she be willing to do that? She also hoped that her son would help his two younger brothers and dared not mention that matter again.

But Political Commissar Wei knew about this at the time.

Ye Aihong knew about this and went to him to cry and complain, saying that there was no one left in her Ye family and she wanted to have a child with the surname Ye. But in the end, it was because Ye Wenting had the surname Ye that her mother-in-law bullied her like this. If this got out, how would the child live in the future?

Doctor Zhong said, "Lu Wenwan and Ye Wenting have similar names and are about the same age, but one is from Xiushan County, Yue City, and the other is from Jing City. How did they get it wrong?"

"After all, he is a descendant of General Ye. I will write a letter to Xu Cheng and mention this matter to see what he says."

Wen Wan didn't know about this.

There is no spiritual power in this world, and it is impossible to practice. Although she knows military boxing, she has too much work to do every day, so why would she need to exercise?

During this period, she helped the five people in the cowshed mail a few letters and submitted a few manuscripts to the newspaper. By July, she had received three manuscript fees, some for 4.5 yuan, some for 10 yuan, and one for 15 yuan.

Seeing that she had received her manuscript fee, Luo Hongying shouted, "Lu Wenwan's article for the provincial newspaper has been published. Let her treat us!"

"Please! Please, I will definitely treat you."

"No wonder she's been sending letters lately. You were actually sending manuscripts."

A gentle smile.

Half of the manuscripts were not sent by her, but were sent on behalf of others, but she was too lazy to explain.

Wen Wan has gained writing experience in submitting articles, and more and more of her articles have been accepted. She has cast a wide net, from the Heilongjiang Daily to the Northern Literature Daily, the Beijing Daily, the Youth Daily, etc. Sometimes a good article can be accepted by several newspapers at the same time, and she can receive three royalties, which add up to a lot.

The year 1973 passed quickly. During the Spring Festival of that year, eleven educated youth gathered here to celebrate the Spring Festival, pasting Spring Festival couplets and setting off firecrackers. However, because Heilongjiang Province was covered with heavy snow in winter, all you could see was white snow. It was extremely cold outside, and no one went out. They all huddled on the kang at home, playing cards or studying.

Wen Wan was bent over her desk writing a novel. She had written more than 200,000 words for the first novel and had already started the second one. She was just waiting for the spring to come and the snow to melt before she could submit it.

It is difficult to send short stories because the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, but there is always a chance.

Seeing that she earned royalties from writing novels, Luo Hongying also followed her example and started submitting articles. However, after submitting five or six articles, none of them were accepted. She became discouraged and stopped writing.

There was also one among the educated youth who considered himself a literary youth. He also submitted several poems and articles, but they were also not accepted.

Wen Wan was already a well-known talent throughout the Shibaozi Commune because her manuscripts were often accepted. She was also invited to write several newsletters for the commune.

At the end of February, the ice and snow began to melt, and roads on the ground became visible, making it possible to travel between villages.

The postman brought several remittance slips, the earliest of which was from last winter. There were newspaper manuscript fee slips and remittance slips sent by a human snakehead from a neighboring county.

In addition to the eight remittance slips, there were several letters, but none of them were addressed to her. They were letters from the people in the cowshed, and they were simply written to her and then forwarded by her. Two packages were also sent, which appeared to be cotton-padded clothes.

Another night, Wen Wan saw that the educated youth were all asleep, so she went into the cowshed in the dark, stood outside and knocked on the door a few times, and said, "Put down the packages and letters together with the grain, oil, and meat she brought this time."

When she was about to leave, Dr. Zhong opened the door wearing his military coat: "Xiao Lu, come in and sit down."

"It's late now. I won't disturb you and Professor Lu from resting."

"No problem! Come in."

Doctor Zhong took the letter and package into the house. The five people in the cowshed all slept on a large kang. Thanks to the new bedding and military coats she had sent, they finally got through the winter. With her help and assistance, the five people even gained some weight this winter.

The last time Professor Gu fell ill, she provided him with pills, and later she also took out two wild ginseng roots to nourish their bodies.

The five people each took their own letters.

After the two packages were opened, there was a letter in each.

Dr. Zhong said, "This is Ye Aihong's handwriting. She sent me this package."

Political Commissar Wei opened another package, which was sent to him by Xu Cheng. He said that he and his wife knew about this matter, and specially took Xu Dapeng, Xu Xiaopeng, and Ye Wenting to the military hospital for blood tests. Xu Cheng was type O blood, and Ye Aihong was type B blood, but Ye Wenting was type A blood. However, both Xu Dapeng brothers were type O blood.

Ye Wenting is indeed not their child.

When Ye Wenting was born, her mother-in-law refused to let her raise her daughter because Ye Aihong insisted on giving her the surname Ye. At the time, there was a "Military and Civilian Unity" tour, and she, one of the mainstays of the Northern Military Region Art Troupe, signed up to participate. Ye Wenting was less than three months old at the time, so she had no choice but to bring her child along on the tour.

When the art troupe was on the road in Yue City, her child caught a cold and had a fever. She was so scared that she had to ask someone to stop the car in Xiushan County for a while and send the child to Xiushan County People's Hospital for treatment. The child stayed in the hospital there for a week. She was worried about the performance at the time, and there happened to be a female art soldier from Xiushan County in the art troupe, who was from the dance team, and she volunteered to take care of the child for her.

Ye Aihong entrusted her child to the female arts soldier.

After the child recovered from his illness and returned to the art troupe, she only noticed that the child had become thinner, but she did not think too much about it.

It was only when I received the letter from Political Commissar Wei and Zhong Mingyue that I learned that the child had been swapped at that time.

The couple had already found the female soldier and went to Xiushan County to find the Lu family. The moment they saw Lu Wentao and his father, they knew that Ye Wenting, who was raised by them, was a child of the Lu family.

Now Ye Wenting has been sent back to the Lu family and changed her name to Lu Wenting.

It was the old lady of the Lu family who insisted on sending Lu Wenting back. She said that the Lu family was cruel and had swapped her own granddaughter. No wonder she had noticed since she was a child that Lu Wenting was not like her own child, and was really not her own, but someone else's.

According to Lu's father, the child swap was done by his deceased first wife. When he was in the hospital, he saw Ye Aihong wearing an officer's uniform, holding her child and seeking medical treatment in a military car. He was very envious.
