Chapter 007 Chapter 7

Time flies by. It's less than a week before Lin Yilan starts school.

On this day, Lin Yilan rode her bicycle back to the compound carrying the custom-made items.

Her friend Fangfang in the compound was responsible for helping her bring the tools borrowed by the logistics department to her grandparents' house.

When Lin Yilan arrived at the compound, Fangfang was sitting under a big cypress tree wearing a hat, shaking her fan and chatting with the ladies around her.

"Xiaolan!"

Lin Yilan got off the bicycle and heard Fangfang calling her.

"Why are you here so early?" She pushed the bicycle and walked to Fangfang's side. "Good morning, ladies."

"Good morning, Xiaolan."

"Good morning."

The ladies responded to Lin Yilan one after another. .

Fangfang took out a banana from the bag next to her and handed it to Lin Yilan, "I was thinking of coming over to help you."

Lin Yilan took the banana and took out an apple from the bag and handed it to Fangfang, "Then I'll I won't be polite to you anymore. I'll trouble you today."

Fangfang stood up, patted her pants, and took Lin Yilan's arm. "It's up to us. There's no need to talk like that between good friends."

"Let's go. "She rubbed the apple on her clothes and took a hard bite.

Seeing this, Lin Yilan shook her head helplessly, pushed the bicycle leg away with her left foot, and pushed the bicycle slowly to keep up with Fangfang, who had already walked ahead.

"Xiaolan, you have been in the compound for so long, and I haven't even met your brothers and sisters. You will start school in a few days, and they won't come to see you either?"

Fangfang was cautious when she said this. He glanced at Lin Yilan several times.

After all, Lin Yilan's parents were both married for the second time. Although second-married families were not uncommon in the compound, the affairs in Mr. Lin's family still attracted the attention of people in the west of the compound.

What's more, Mr. Lin's youngest son and daughter-in-law have only visited him three or four times in the past two months. Can everyone not be curious. In addition, Mr. Lin’s youngest daughter-in-law is from a capitalist background. Even if we don’t see this now, it is still very concerning.

Fangfang was naturally a little curious, but she was worried about her good friend Lin Yilan.

She has lived in the compound for so many years and has seen many children in reorganized families. In such families, the children born to the couple are either easily ignored by their parents, or are easily favored by their parents, and then end up with them. The older brothers and sisters at home don't get along well.

So she was particularly worried that her best friend would be bullied by her family.

Six of the family's seven members came back at the end of last year, leaving their best friend alone in the countryside. The good friend finally returned to Beijing after taking the exam, but they still didn't care about her.

The more Fangfang thought about it, the more she felt aggrieved for Lin Yilan.

Lin Yilan was stunned for a moment, and then saw the angry expression on Fangfang's face. She immediately knew that her friend had misunderstood.

"Hahahaha, you misunderstood." Although it was a misunderstanding between friends, Lin Yilan was still a little happy, "I have a very good relationship with my family. But we all have busy things, so how can we see each other every day."

"And we The five brothers and sisters meet regularly, but they are not in the compound. It is said that the day for our gathering will be in a few days,"

Fangfang didn't believe it. "But no matter how busy they are, they can't stay away from each other during the summer vacation. Looking at you?"

Lin Yilan opened the door of her grandparents' house, parked her bicycle, and put her hands on Fangfang's shoulders. "They are really busy. There are

seven people in their family, five of them are kings, and the rest are. There are two people, one is her father and the other is her, one is competing against the other for being lazy. But her father is better than her. At least he is diligent in his work, and he is not the kind of person at home who won't help him when the oil bottle falls.

"According to what I know, my mother should be busy studying now. She seems to have a relationship with a professor who studies education. My second sister either spends time in the school library every day or is looking for a job as a school teacher. The third brother and the fourth brother seem to have gone to Shanghai. As for the eldest brother, you should know that he was admitted to graduate school this year, so he went to school early to study."

After hearing Lin Yilan's explanation, Fangfang's mouth was big enough to stuff eggs. .

"No wonder my mother asked me to study with you, your family is too scary..." She thought for a while, if someone like her would not survive in Lin Yilan's family.

Fangfang rubbed her arms, "Fortunately I'm not in your house, otherwise I really would have no way to survive."

Lin Yilan stopped Fangfang and shook her index finger, "Stop talking, the past is all blood and tears. .."

At the beginning of her time travel, she thought about whether to be a "genius boy", but later she found that she had thought too much, really too much.

When a pseudo-genius meets a truly smart person, he immediately falls flat on his face.

In order to prevent her life from being too difficult, Lin Yilan decisively chose to be an ordinary child.

Just thinking that her brothers and sisters were so smart and would end up like that in the end made Lin Yilan even more angry.

Thinking of this, Lin Yilan sighed and shook the bag in her hand, making a clattering sound. "Let's go, Comrade Fangfang.

You have thrown yourself into a trap today and you have to work for me for free."

Fangfang She followed Lin Yilan into Grandma and Grandpa Lin's house, "You're not afraid that I won't help, I'll just make trouble for you."

"How? It's great if you're willing to help."

After saying that, Lin Yilan turned around and walked out of the house . Borrowed tools were hauled into the house.

Immediately afterwards, she changed her clothes, ran to the utility room and took the little cement left in the house to the yard.

Speaking of which, it was thanks to her "golden finger" in this life that she rediscovered those memories related to construction in her previous life. Otherwise, the ratio of cement mortar would have given her a headache for a while now.

After mixing the river sand, small gravel and cement brought in advance in proportion, and then getting a small half bucket of water in the kitchen, she started the mixing project.

Fangfang, who was sorting out the accessories in the house, heard the noise outside, came out of the room and walked to the yard.

Good guy, she said she heard the kind of sound that you would hear only in places where houses are built. It turned out to be Lin Yilan.

The last time she saw this scene was when soldiers from the army logistics department came to repair the house in the family compound. She never expected that one day she would see her friend doing such a trick in front of her.

Moreover, her friend seemed to be more agile than the new engineers in the army.

"...Comrade Lin, when will you get this skill?" Fangfang couldn't help but ask.

Lin Yilan wiped the sweat from her forehead and spoke while mixing cement with a shovel, "I learned it when I was in the countryside, but I didn't have much experience at that time, and the mixing was not cement."

Fangfang made a big comparison. Thumb, "It seems that you really have this talent for architecture. It's not a bad idea to go to the Department of Architecture."

Lin Yilan moved her mouth and decided to swallow the idea of ​​explaining to others the difference between the two majors of civil engineering and architectural design.

She only knows this skill because when she was an intern, she offended the company's architect who was on the same project team with her, and was then sent to the construction site to stay and watch the project construction. She has been living at the construction site for several months. After a while, she returned to the company.

When she lived at the construction site, she learned a lot of civil engineering knowledge from the engineers and workers on the construction site, which helped her make up for her weaknesses.

She mixed this cement to make a guide slope between the waterproof bulge and the threshold of the toilet.

There is an old saying that goes, "A person ages first, his legs grow old first." Putting aside the plot of her grandmother and her old leader in the novel, her grandfather's legs were originally due to being on the battlefield, and there were still bullet fragments in his legs that had not been removed. So my legs and feet are not good.

In addition, she recalled the knowledge she had learned that when elderly people walk, their feet are often not raised as high as young people, and they are often easily tripped by ropes and thresholds on the road, so Lin Yilan thought of walking in these places with small height differences. Make a guide slope.

Picking up a shovel and scraping a layer of cement mortar, Lin Yilan went straight to the toilet, and Fangfang followed closely behind her.

On the other side, Aunt Zhang, an old friend who fell in love with Lin Yilan in the compound, was ready to go home after finishing her daily chat under the big cypress tree.

On her way home, there was a place she must pass, which was Mr. Lin's house.

But I heard that Mr. Lin and his wife went to visit the old leader Sister Liu in the 893 Hospital. Based on the news she has heard in the past few days, it can be judged that Sister Liu has been diagnosed with high blood pressure, and I heard it is quite serious, so she will have to be hospitalized for a period of time.

But what made her most curious about these news was that some people said that Sister Liu was diagnosed with high blood pressure, and it seemed that Mr. Lin's granddaughter was pushing her.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but peek into Mr. Lin's yard.

I wonder if this girl had a good dinner.

"Ouch!"

Aunt Zhang exclaimed as she looked at the piece of cement dripping in Mr. Lin's yard.

"Is there anyone inside?"

"Is it someone from the logistics department?"

Aunt Zhang tiptoed into Mr. Lin's yard.

"It's strange. I didn't hear that the troops came to the compound to repair things today."

Generally, when the troops send people to repair things in the compound, they will greet the residents living in this area in advance. After all, it saves time to deal with one area at a time.

"Sister Zhang, what are you doing?"

When she heard someone calling her, Aunt Zhang looked up and saw that he was the person she hated most in the courtyard. She rolled her eyes and ignored the man.

"Hey, Sister Zhang, why don't you speak? The little teacher who came here to teach us about illiteracy some time ago told us to be polite and civilized. I think Sister Zhang, you really learned in vain."

The annoying person started talking, It's like flies buzzing in my ears, it's so noisy.

Aunt Zhang snorted, "Qiu Xiao'e, what's the matter with you? Why are you staring at me here if you didn't go home to cook after buying vegetables?"

Qiu Xiao'e walked closer and glanced into Mr. Lin's room, "I What can I do? I just wanted to say hello to you. "

"The logistics department sent people to repair Mr. Lin's house. Why didn't you say hello to us in advance? My land also needs to be repaired.

" No, I didn't look at the people in the army."

"Where did this thing come from?"

Qiu Xiao'e tiptoed to look at Master Lin's house.

"Wait a minute, isn't Mr. Lin's granddaughter looking for someone from outside to enter the compound?!" Qiu Xiao'e looked at Aunt Zhang with some schadenfreude. She knew that this person was often helping Mr. Lin's granddaughter outside. say.

"Maybe people from the countryside don't know the rules in our compound."
