Lin Yueyao happily took the money she had received from the Lin family back to the guesthouse when no one was looking.

Looking at the five small gold bars on the bed, each weighing 500 grams, there were five in total!

There was also a stack of large ten-yuan bills next to it. Lin Yueyao counted them and found that there were more than six thousand yuan!

These items were all found in Lin's mother and father's safe; some were small, some were large.

More than two hundred yuan were also found in the rooms of other members of the Lin family, with the most belonging to Sister-in-law Lin, who had more than eighty yuan.

Looking at these treasures, Lin Yueyao was troubled. How could she take them with her?

Should I pack it in my bag and take it with me? That's too dangerous! What should I do?

Lin Yueyao paced back and forth in the room, racking her brains for a solution. She knew that once she left tomorrow morning, she would definitely not be coming back.

So the money had to be taken with it. Although it could be deposited in a bank, that wasn't possible in Shanghai.

However, Lin Yueyao suddenly realized that she probably needed a certificate to deposit money at the bank these days.

She doesn't dare deposit this money because it's of dubious origin.

Lin Yueyao had a dark, smudged face. Although everyone knew she was a girl, she had deliberately made her face look much darker, so you couldn't tell what she really looked like.

Lin Yueyao was no longer concerned about her face; her attention was entirely focused on how to hide the money.

She paced back and forth in the room, trying to think of a solution.

As Lin Yueyao walked, she looked at the neatly packed luggage next to her, some of which she had acquired after leaving the Lin family.

In addition to buying two more sets of clothes and a quilt, she also bought bed sheets and a thermos.

Other food items include malted milk powder, biscuits, flour, and other items such as towels, toothbrushes, and toothpaste.

Yueyao packed everything tightly into a large canvas bag that she had sewn at home.

She realized that money was her most important possession, and she couldn't let it leave her side.

So Yueyao happily ran to the front desk to borrow a needle and thread from the young staff member, intending to sew the ten-yuan note onto the top waistband of one of the pairs of pants.

Later, put the rich pants on as the innermost layer, and then put on a pair of loose pants.

Finally, put on a loose-fitting garment to cover it up, and it's perfect!

Yueyao couldn't help but praise herself for her cleverness.

Anyway, Yueyao is so thin she's practically a stick, so as long as she doesn't feel hot, no one can tell how much she's wearing.

As for the gold bars, she sewed them into a cloth bag and tied the bag around her waist.

It's only 5 pounds, it feels like I'm not wearing it at all when I tie it around my waist, it doesn't feel heavy at all.

When her belly button is covered in gold bars and her lower abdomen is adorned with large sums of money, she will truly be rolling in wealth!

Sure enough, when they set off the next day, no one noticed anything wrong with Lin Yueyao.

After all, she had so much luggage on her, and the small girl was almost unable to breathe from the weight.

Even the leaders who escorted them to the countryside were a little worried about her small frame.

Before boarding the train, the leader once again gave everyone a pep talk: "Comrades, today we gather together to embark on a glorious and arduous task—responding to the nation's call and dedicating ourselves to the great cause of sending educated youth to the countryside!"

Yueyao's companion immediately responded, and Yueyao, not wanting to just sit there, quickly joined in with excited applause.

"As everyone knows, our country is currently in a crucial period of construction and development..."

Finally, the leader concluded: "When you get to the countryside, you must put down your city airs and humbly learn from the villagers."

"They have rich production experience and hardworking and honest people. Although they are uneducated, they have a lot of life wisdom and work experience that you do not know. So you should humbly learn from them."

At the same time, you should also leverage your own strengths to bring cultural knowledge, new ideas, and new concepts to rural areas, helping farmers broaden their horizons and jointly explore new paths for rural development…

"Here, I must repeatedly remind everyone to pay attention to safety. In agricultural production, strictly abide by operating procedures, use farm tools and equipment correctly, and never be careless..."

The educated youth below the stage stood ramrod straight, as resolute as poplars, their bright eyes gleaming with a burning light, like clusters of leaping flames.

As soon as the leader finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted, followed by shouts of "Rest assured, organization!" and "We guarantee to complete the mission!"—a chorus of youthful vigor and energy.

Seeing everyone's high spirits and exaggerated yet sincere expressions, Yueyao also put on a proud look, but in reality, she was calm.

She knows what the countryside is like, so what's there to get excited about? If it weren't for avoiding future troubles and the Lin family affair...

She would never willingly go to the countryside to suffer!

Don't say there's nowhere else to go besides the countryside.

She's just a young girl trapped in her own little world, she hasn't even figured out how to navigate social interactions yet!

Those who have jobs and can be moved around freely are not people like Lin Yueyao can come into contact with.

She wasn't so lucky; she didn't expect to meet someone destined to help her just by leaving the place.

She's someone with no connections, no job, and wants to leave Haishi. She needs connections to do that. Lin Yueyao is just a college student who hasn't graduated yet. How could she have such connections?

In her previous life, Lin Yueyao had always lived in that swamp, and she only learned about the storms and hardships outside from snippets of conversation with the Zhang family.

Seeing that Yueyao was quite enthusiastic, Ning, a former educated youth, asked cheerfully, "Hey, comrade, I'm also an educated youth who responded to the call to go to the countryside. My name is Ning Qinqin. What's your name? Where are you going to go to the countryside this time?"

Lin Yueyao nodded to her, "Hello, Ning Zhiqing, my name is Lin Yueyao."

As for where they were going, Yueyao didn't say. Anyway, after today, they wouldn't see each other again, so there was no need to go into details.

But this Ning educated youth was oblivious to the situation and kept talking to Lin Yueyao, even when Lin Yueyao didn't say much, she could still keep talking on and on.

Just as Yueyao turned her attention back, she heard her say, "This time my mom wouldn't let me sign up, so I secretly signed up myself."

“We went to the countryside in response to the call, not to cause trouble for the villagers. My mom is always worried about me, saying that I am lazy and that if I go to the countryside, I will not only be unable to help, but I will also be a burden to the villagers.”

"Why doesn't my mom believe me? How could I be that kind of person..."

Yueyao looked at the chattering girl next to her, who was clearly spoiled. Although she didn't say anything, she agreed with what Ning Zhiqing's mother said.

Who would go to the countryside unless absolutely necessary? The countryside has endless sunshine, endless farm work, and an empty stomach.

Anyone who has experienced rural life wouldn't want to escape it. What good could the countryside possibly offer?

But perhaps they haven't experienced it, so no matter what others say, they will think that others are hindering their path to progress!

Girls who grow up in a greenhouse are so lucky...it makes people jealous.
