Rebirth 80: Start by earning money to build a brick house

Zhang Ziming, who believed that time waits for no one, originally planned to write all night by lighting a kerosene lamp.

But after thinking about it, I didn’t want to waste this little kerosene, so I took the initiative to blow out the lamp and go to sleep in the middle of the night.

Isn’t it good to write a book when there is light during the day?

Besides, even if you light a kerosene lamp and write all night, wouldn’t you still feel lack of energy during the day? If you don’t have energy during the day, it will be inefficient.

Therefore, Zhang Ziming thought very clearly that he should not stay up too late at night, or he would have no energy the next day. The key was wasting kerosene.

After eating in the morning, Zhang Ziming was ready to go to Dalinzhai Village.

Today, I have to convince Lin Yuxin to take the college entrance examination no matter what. Although there are only more than three months left, I believe in Lin Yuxin's skills.

Zhang's father and Zhang's mother were a little confused about their son Zhang Ziming. Ever since he refused to go to the county to borrow money from his third uncle, he had been homeless every day.

On the first day, I came back with a bunch of black stones, but I didn’t see any money being made;

The next day I said I was going to the county town, but when I came back I was so hungry that I threw myself into the house and wrote non-stop;

On the third day, I went out early in the morning again, but the direction I went out was not to go to work to earn work points.

Zhang's father, Zhang Zhongren, felt a little distressed. Why were he distressed?

I feel sorry for Zhang Ziming, a strong laborer who did not work to earn work points. He lost three days of work points in vain.

Although I don’t know how much you will be divided at the end of the year, the prerequisite for dividing things is that you must have work points. This is actually three days of work points in vain.

Zhang's mother, Wang Yunqing, always felt that the situation at home was delaying Zhang Ziming. Otherwise, with Zhang Ziming's talent and continued studying, it would be very possible for him to be admitted to university.

Even if you don't get into college, being a private teacher in the village is more than enough.

Zhang Zhongren knew Wang Yunqing's thoughts, but it was still not good to blame his fate.

I followed the team to repair a reservoir, but injured my back, so the commune gave me a subsidy of dozens of yuan to help me survive.

But he couldn't do heavy work anymore, so the family relied on Zhang Ziming as a strong laborer.

Otherwise, the younger siblings would also have to drop out of school, but one of the three children has already dropped out of school. What the old couple thinks is that the remaining two will never drop out of school.

The village where Zhang Ziming lives is called Bottle Village. There is a river passing through the village, which looks like a big bottle, so it has always been called Bottle Village.

Bottle Village is only three miles away from Dalinzhai Village, where Lin Yuxin is located, and can be reached in ten minutes on foot.

Zhang Ziming did not go directly to Lin Yuxin's home, but first went to the primary school in the village.

Class had not yet started at this point, and Zhang Ziming stood outside the office window.

Before Zhang Ziming could shout, Lin Yuxin had already seen the big man Zhang Ziming wandering outside.

Lin Yuxin trotted out and excitedly pulled Zhang Ziming to the back of the classroom:

"Why are you here? Don't you want to go to work?"

Lin Yuxin and Zhang Ziming have been playing together since childhood. They can be described as childhood sweethearts. Lin Yuxin is very happy that Zhang Ziming comes to school so blatantly to look for her.

Although the two families had already agreed on the marriage, they had not yet gotten married after all. Lin Yuxin was still somewhat excited to meet alone like this.

Zhang Ziming could see Lin Yuxin's happiness and excitement, so why not himself?

In his last life, he lost Lin Yuxin due to an accident. After seeing Lin Yuxin again after his rebirth, Zhang Ziming was so excited that his Adam's apple squirmed but he couldn't say a word.

Zhang Ziming only thinks in his heart: He must take good care of you in this life, and he cannot let you suffer any more accidents.

Lin Yuxin saw something strange about Zhang Ziming:

"What's wrong? You didn't say a word when you came here. If you don't say anything, I have to go to class."

Lin Yuxin pouted her little cherry mouth as she spoke. Lin Yuxin's appearance could not be said to be as beautiful as a fairy.

But this little mouth is so attractive that people can't help but want to kiss it.

After Zhang Ziming came back to his senses, he talked about the important things first, and then spoke out his suggestions.

But Lin Yuxin is not what Zhang Ziming imagined she should be.

Lin Yuxin was a little conflicted in her heart. Why didn't she want to take the college entrance examination and go to university?

As the eldest daughter in the family, Lin Yuxin was able to attend high school for two years in an era when sons were valued over daughters, which was pretty good.

Although after being admitted to college, there will be subsidies, and I won’t spend much money from my family.

But I didn’t make any money when I was in college. Now, I have an income of more than ten or twenty yuan a month.

Lin Yuxin also has a younger brother who is currently in junior high school. If she goes to college elsewhere, the pressure on her parents will be great.

How could Zhang Ziming not understand Lin Yuxin's thoughts and concerns despite being a man of two generations?

But Lin Yuxin wanted to say it in a more relaxed way:

"Ziming, if I go to university elsewhere, it's hard to say if it's far away. If it's close, I have to go to Jinchang area (it was changed to Jinchang City in 1981, it was still called a region at this time, and it was called Jinchang District in the future). Aren't you afraid that I will be snatched away by educated young talents from outside?"

Zhang Ziming knew that Lin Yuxin was a person who always considered others, and knew that Lin Yuxin did not mean what she said. The real reason was also family reasons.

Zhang Ziming also pretended to be relaxed:

"Why, am I not a young talent? Yu Xin, let me tell you, I am currently writing a novel in my spare time. When I serialize or publish a book, then we will also be young talents."

Zhang Ziming thought about the fact that he was writing a book based on the memories of later generations, and then said it accordingly.

Lin Yuxin was surprised when she heard Zhang Ziming's words. Zhang Ziming actually said that he was writing a novel. Is this possible?

Not to mention whether he can write.

He is the backbone of the family, and he is not allowed to do any farm work.

I still have a younger brother and a younger sister to support. How can I still write a book when I’m so busy?

Even if he could find time to write a book, it would probably just be a small love poem or a short prose. Can he also write a novel?

A novel cannot be completed with dozens or hundreds of words. It is a big project.

Lin Yuxin was a little confused about Zhang Ziming's ability to say this. Did she say this because she was joking with him?

Lin Yuxin was puzzled. She blinked her big eyes, looked at Zhang Ziming seriously and asked:

"Are you writing a novel? Is it true?"

Zhang Ziming is confident in his heart. He can recall one or two novels no matter how he recalls it. How can this still stump him?

Zhang Ziming said confidently:

"Yuxin, I am serious about writing novels, and I am also serious about asking you to take the college entrance examination.

You listen to my suggestion and take the college entrance examination this year. There will be no problem based on your foundation."

Zhang Ziming was afraid that Lin Yuxin would hesitate in her heart and did not give her a chance to speak. He held Lin Yuxin's arms with both hands and shook them slightly:

"As for your worries, I will help you solve them. To be honest, I have a way to make money now. Of course it is a legitimate way to make money. Your worries are not a problem with me."

Lin Yuxin felt a little shaken in her heart. Of course her original intention was to take the college entrance examination.

But I can't live without myself at home.

If Zhang Ziming can help, it seems that he can really take the college entrance examination and go to university.

However, can the fiancé in front of him help him?

Lin Yuxin still trusts Zhang Ziming:

"How can you make money? You can't speculate. If you are caught, the whole commune will criticize you."

Zhang Ziming knew that Lin Yuxin was still struggling, so he expressed his plan to do the next best thing:

That is to let Lin Yuxin take advantage of this time to review, and she can also use this time to make money.

The two of them did it at the same time, which not only allowed Lin Yuxin to see that she was capable of making money, but also did not delay her review.

If she really doesn't make any money by then, then Lin Yuxin can choose not to take the college entrance examination.

Of course, this situation will never happen. Zhang Ziming is confident that he can make money.

In fact, Lin Yuxin has been secretly paying attention to the college entrance examination, because one of her colleagues is preparing for the college entrance examination and will register in the next two days.

Fortunately, Lin Yuxin finally agreed to Zhang Ziming's request to do the next best thing. Now he just teaches and reviews at the same time. With his skills here, there should be some hope.

When it was time, Lin Yuxin took out a stack of manuscript paper and ink and handed it to Zhang Ziming, because Lin Yuxin believed that since Zhang Ziming said he wanted to write a novel, he must write it, and she had to support Zhang Ziming.

Zhang Ziming, who was holding manuscript paper and ink, was so inspired that he rushed home in three skips.

Time is money. Try to use these four or five days to get a copy first.
