Reborn at 60: I Helped My Sister Get Rich Starting from Hunting

Lin Qiushui quickly wrote the IOU and handed it to Zhang Yang for signature.

Zhang Yangming had long ago mastered a strong and powerful handwriting, but in order to conform to the current impression people have of him, he deliberately wrote his words crookedly.

After Lin Qiushui finished writing the IOU, she looked at Wang Jie with another blank sheet of paper in her hand.

"Should you write this receipt yourself or should I write it?"

Wang Jie's heart was already firmly attached to that ten-yuan note, so he had no intention of writing a receipt.

Besides, he hadn't had much schooling and couldn't recognize many characters!

Wang Jie waved his hand and instructed Lin Qiushui, "Just write it down as well!"

Lin Qiushui wrote another receipt in a long and detailed manner.

After finishing writing it, he kindly handed it to Wang Jie to read.

"Take a look. If there's anything you don't understand, I'll explain it to you."

There were only a few lines on the paper.

The "Actual Amount Received" field clearly states: Ten Yuan.

Wang Jie was delighted when he saw it!

Where else can you notice anything else?

He asked Lin Qiushui for a pen and pointed to the lower right corner, asking, "Is this where I sign?"

"Yes."

Wang Jie signed his name with a flourish.

"The receipt is signed, can I have the money now? Hurry up, stop dawdling! You've already wasted half a day!"

Lin Qiushui then nodded.

Zhang Yang, with a gloomy face, took out the money again.

“Wang Jie, if you take this money today, you’re not allowed to come to my house for the next few days! Nobody’s house is made of money! This ten yuan is already borrowed! Even if you urgently need the money, you have to give people time to figure something out!”

Once Wang Jie got his hands on the money, he didn't care about anything else and just mumbled a perfunctory reply, "Okay, okay!"

People can run faster than rabbits.

After he left, Lin Qiushui didn't stay at the Zhang family's house for long. She deliberately returned to the educated youth team with a heavy heart in front of everyone.

The news that the Zhang family had given the Wang family a full ten yuan quickly spread.

As everyone knows, this money wasn't paid by Zhang Yang alone.

When the news reached the educated youth team, the situation took a different turn.

"I never would have guessed, Lin Qiushui, that you had so much money hidden away."

"We live in the same room, but you've never mentioned it to us."

Lin Qiushui chuckled, "Everyone is focused on building up the countryside and developing the farms these days, so there's no need to spend the money. I haven't had a chance to bring this up."

The female educated youths thought she was just eccentric and didn't want to talk to her, so they went off to chat with pumpkin seeds and peanuts.

But Lin Qiushui's lending of money to Zhang Yang caught the attention of several young men in the team.

The one who is most anxious is **.

That is, the "javelin kid" that Zhao Dong dislikes the most.

**: Qiu Shui, everyone's talking about how you lent money to a kid in the village named Zhang Yang. Is that true?

Someone reminded him, "Zhang Yang is now the captain of our village's militia squad, so you need to watch your words."

He pushed the person away, looking like he couldn't be bothered to listen.

He hurriedly sought an answer from Lin Qiushui.

“We, the educated youth team, know that you are kind-hearted and always ready to help others when they are in trouble.”

"But do you know how gossipy these old ladies and aunties in the village are? They insist that you've taken a fancy to that boy!"

“I was furious when I heard that. How could this be? Even if you are a representative of educated urban young women, you would never fall for some dim-witted boy from a mountain village who can barely read a few words…”

"And didn't your family remind you? Never get too complicated in your relationships in the countryside."

“We will eventually have to go back to the city! If you get too close to them and settle down here, it will be difficult to go back home.”

"I don't think you can stay here, even for your parents' sake!"

"So you'd better go and get that money back as soon as possible!"

Lin Qiushui looked at him in astonishment, “**, that’s my money, I have the right to decide how to use it.”

Frustrated, she wrung her hands. "Qiu Shui, why can't you understand? This isn't just about borrowing money anymore. You're a girl; you need to protect your reputation!"

Lin Qiushui said firmly, "I disagree with your opinion. Young people who grow up in the mountains may not have received much education, but that doesn't mean they're stupid. My willingness to be friends with Zhang Yang is my business, please don't interfere with my personal freedom!"

"Lin Qiushui!" ** exclaimed anxiously, "Do you really intend to let the rumors continue like this, and then half-heartedly marry a country bumpkin in the end?"

Lin Qiushui blushed.

Previously, she hadn't thought too much about her relationship with Zhang Yang.

I just think it's pretty good to have made a friend like this by chance.

But now that she's been told this, she can't help but start making assumptions.

If she really marries Zhang Yang, what kind of life will she lead?

They are a very easy family to get along with, and you don't have to think too much when you're with them!

Moreover, whenever Lin Qiushui thought of Zhang Yang's bright eyes and determined gaze, she felt that Zhang Yang was much better than most of the young men in the educated youth team!

The men who went to the countryside with her all seemed to be promising young men with bright futures.

But the light in their eyes seemed to gradually dim and lose its luster after they arrived at the farm.

It's as if the countryside is some terrible place!

The conditions here are indeed not good, but what Lin Qiushui sees is the simple villagers who, with their own hands and hard work, have reaped abundant rewards.

The books and the radio clearly sing that labor is the most glorious thing.

But their attitude clearly shows a lack of respect for working people!

“**, I appreciate your kindness.”

"But I will not give up on Zhang Yang as a good friend."

"I know what I'm doing, and I know what kind of situation I might face."

"You don't need to worry about my future. I will take responsibility for my own actions."

Suddenly, he hugged Lin Qiushui, "Qiushui! Let me tell you the truth! I like you! I like you so much! From the first day I came here, after I learned your name, I knew! I've fallen for you! So, you can't be with that boy!"

Lin Qiushui was startled and forcefully pushed ** away!

"Who you like is your business! But just because you like me doesn't mean I have to be with you! Please don't act so rudely next time!"

Lin Qiushui, she...

They actually rejected my advances?!

Feeling incredulous, he clenched his fists tightly.

"Almost every woman in the village likes me! How come you, Lin Qiushui, don't like me? And you even pushed me away?"

Lin Qiushui smiled coldly, "No matter who likes you, that's no reason for you to offend me!"

He glared and yelled, "Lin Qiushui! Don't push your luck!"
