Chapter 2 Traveling through the new world behind the door
Lin Musen opened his eyes at his wife's call and hurried to the door. He stood with his wife and watched his son from far away to near.
Lin Sanqi stopped the tricycle and felt a little embarrassed when she saw the concerned eyes of her parents:
"Dad, grandma, why are you standing at the door when it's so hot?"
Wang Wenjuan asked weakly: "Qizai, are you okay?"
Lin Sanqi jumped off the tricycle, forced a smile and said: "Mom, I'm fine, it's just too hot. I'm not in good health. Go back and rest quickly."
Before Wang Wenjuan could ask again, a 16-year-old girl jumped down from upstairs. She was Lin Sanqi's younger sister, Lin Bingqiao.
"Boss, you're back? I've been worried about you for a long time. I'm afraid you won't be able to think about jumping into the sand river."
Wang Wenjuan was so angry that she slapped her daughter on the shoulder: "You poor girl, how could you say such a thing about your brother? Your homework is done?"
Lin Bingqiao stuck out her tongue:
"It's too hot upstairs, and you guys can't bear to turn on the air conditioner. I'm coming downstairs to take a rest. Boss, I'll get you some water and you can wash your face."
The Lin family has air conditioning, but it is not turned on on such a hot day. Obviously the Lin family's economic conditions are not very good, and they can save money when they can.
Lin Musen remained silent since his son entered the door. When his son finished washing his face and sat next to the fan to blow the air, he tried to ask:
"Your girlfriend has already boarded the train?"
Lin Sanqi lowered his head and hummed slightly. At this time, his eyes were a little red again.
Lin Musen sighed softly, patted his son on the shoulder and comforted him:
"Forget it, after all, you are destined to be different.
Don't blame her. Without your diploma, it will be difficult for you to find a job in the future. In addition, our family's economic conditions are not good and we cannot give you material support, so it is normal for the girl to break up without seeing hope.
She has never done anything to feel sorry for you. You have been together for 4 years and she treats you wholeheartedly. In the current situation, we cannot ask her to sacrifice her future, regardless of whether her parents in her hometown are with you.
She doesn't owe you, and you don't owe her either, so let's just settle it down.
At least, your breakup was peaceful, unlike Mingzi next door, who made such a big fuss that he even lost the last bit of dignity, making the villagers laugh and looked down upon by his fellow clan members. ”
Lin Bingqiao sat next to her holding her heart, pretending to be in pain, but she sang a song:
"Breaking up should be decent, and no one should say sorry. There is no debt, I dare to break my heart if I dare to give it. In front of the camera is our former self, cheering and crying at the top of our lungs~~~"
Lin Sanqi was holding back at first, but his sister's singing immediately broke his guard, and tears suddenly flowed out.
When Wang Wenjuan saw it, she was so angry that she slapped her daughter on the back: "You are going to die. How can you comfort your brother like this?"
Lin Bingqiao was still young and didn’t know what it was like to be sad, so she retorted:
"What's the point of falling out of love? At worst, I'll find another one. My boss is so handsome, so many younger girls are vying to date him, right? Classmate Lin Sanqi, smile, a man won't shed tears easily~ ~~”
Lin Sanqi was also amused by this playful girl:
"Okay, the boss will definitely find the most beautiful and outstanding sister-in-law for you in the future."
Lin Musen saw that his son had recovered, looked at each other with his wife, and breathed a sigh of relief. At the critical moment, he still needed such a pistachio to cheer him up.
"Okay, okay, it's such a hot day, go take a shower and turn on the air conditioner. You rest for a few days, and I'll go back to Grandpa to discuss how to solve your work."
"Okay, then I'm going back to the room." In the bathroom.
While Lin Sanqi closed her eyes and flushed the water, her mind was filled with thoughts of her girlfriend's last appearance before she got on the train.
Thinking that this might be the last time the two of them met, Lin Sanqi was filled with sadness and regret.
At the same time, Lin Sanqi also knew that she had to get back on her feet and think about how to make money to support her family, otherwise she would be living up to her parents' upbringing.
When Mrs. Lin gave birth to her little daughter, she had a massive hemorrhage and narrowly escaped death. Although she was later rescued, her body was still very weak and the root of the disease was at work.
Usually, he relies on a secret recipe handed down from his family to survive, but most of the medicinal materials in this recipe are composed of precious Chinese medicines. With the soaring prices of Chinese medicinal materials in recent years, the Lin family has long been overwhelmed.
There is also a college student and a middle school student to support, so the financial situation of the Lin family is not optimistic.
However, Lin's father's traditional Chinese medicine clinic business has changed with the times, and traditional Chinese medicine has become increasingly unpopular.
When people in the village get sick, they like to go to the fast-paced Western medicine clinic for infusion and sling bottles. If that doesn't work, they just take some antibiotics. No one has the patience to use traditional Chinese medicine to treat the disease slowly.
This also resulted in Lin’s father’s traditional Chinese medicine clinic not making as much money as Lin’s mother’s rice shop.
Lin's Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic was passed down from his ancestors, and there were feelings and ancestral precepts in it. Lin Musen could only bite the bullet and inherit this ancestral business and barely survive.
As the eldest son of Lin, Lin Sanqi knows this very well, so Lin Sanqi can only encourage herself secretly:
"Come on, Lin Sanqi, the edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. You can definitely do it. Let those who look down on you see that you, Lin Sanqi, are a true hero!"
This shower took more than half an hour to come out.
Lin Sanqi put on a tank top, shorts, and a pair of flip-flops. While wiping her hair with a towel, she opened the bathroom door and prepared to go out.
Then Lin Sanqi was stunned, opened her mouth wide, and rubbed her eyes vigorously:
"Am I overly sad and hallucinating?"
The scene on the other side of the bathroom door was not Lin Sanqi's room, but a huge space similar to an underground bomb shelter.
Lin Sanqi stepped across the bathroom door in disbelief and stood in this huge inexplicable space, looking left and right.
The space is huge, the size of two football fields.
It's very high, like a city hall, at least more than ten stories high.
There was nothing in the space, it was as bright as day, there was no sound, it was eerily quiet, except for a door opposite.
Lin Sanqi is a young man after all, and young people often have an adventurous spirit that is fearless.
If a more mature person encounters something unbelievable, they will urgently exit this inexplicable space and return to the bathroom to observe.
But Lin Sanqi was a little excited despite being shocked. When she saw the door opposite, she wanted to see what was on the other side.
Walking to the door, Lin Sanqi took a deep breath, opened the door and walked out, only to be stunned again.
A courtyard appeared in front of me. The courtyard looked a bit shabby and quaint, just like an old courtyard house in Beiping City.
Yes, the more you look at it, the more it looks like a courtyard. There are many people in this courtyard looking back at him.
Lin Sanqi secretly exclaimed: How come there are still people alive despite your lungs?
