Tian Shao walked in and found that the yard was very spacious, about forty square meters by visual inspection. There was a jujube tree against the wall on the left. Two small plots of land were opened under the jujube tree, and various vegetables were grown on them. On the right side was the corner of the wall near the gate. A small wooden shed was built with a stove inside.
People in this era have suffered a lot, so they are very hardworking and frugal. Tian Shao looked at the vegetable field full of fruits and praised: "Grandma Shen, you are so good at growing vegetables. The leaves of my bitter melon are all yellow." Yes, yours here is still green."
Old Mrs. Shen saw that she didn't look fake, and she also had a smile on her face: "I grew up late, so I look pretty good."
The Shen family has four houses in total. Mrs. Shen rented out the first house on the right. Tian Shao walked in and took a look and was very satisfied. The house was very spacious and the windows faced the yard. The windows were made of glass and would not block the light. There are three pieces of old-fashioned furniture in the house, namely a wardrobe, a bed and a desk and bench.
Mother Li thought the environment was very good and asked Tian Shao softly: "Lingling, I think it's very good here. What do you think?"
The conditions were very good and the old lady was the only one in the house who didn't make any noise. Tian Shao couldn't be more satisfied: "Grandma Shen, how much is the monthly rent for your house?"
Old Mrs. Shen said: "The rent is three yuan a month, and my monthly water and electricity bill is about four cents. From now on, it will be counted as five cents, and you will pay the excess."
Tian Shao thought the three yuan rent was not expensive, so she agreed: "Grandma Shen, I rented a house, and the stove will be for me to use from now on, right?"
Mrs. Shen pointed to the back of the main room and said, "You use the stove, I'll cook there, don't interfere with each other."
Tian Shao thinks this is good, but it is quite troublesome to eat with the elderly. After all, the elderly like to eat light and soft things, while she likes to eat spicy and other exciting foods.
Old Mrs. Shen was sure that she wanted to rent a house and said, "Everyone else deposits one and pays one, and you do the same."
Before Tian Shao could speak, Mother Li took out six yuan from her pocket and handed it to Mrs. Shen. Seeing that she refused to accept it, she explained: "This child's salary last month was twenty yuan, and he bought some things for the family. I paid ten yuan in foreign debt and sent my two younger sisters to study. I don’t have much money left. So I will advance the money for her and she will pay me back next month when she gets her salary.”
Mrs. Shen's eyes suddenly changed when she looked at Tian Shao: "How dare you rent a house with a salary of twenty yuan?"
It’s so unsustainable that I won’t even be able to pay the rent in the future!
Tian Shao smiled and said: "I have become a full-time employee this month, and my salary next month is thirty-two yuan, which is enough. Grandma Shen, the two years' rent adds up to seventy-two yuan. If you go to school, it will definitely be more than this." Money."
Mrs. Shen's expression softened a lot and she asked, "Are you so sure that you can get a high school diploma?"
"Sure."
Old Mrs. Shen did not accept Mother Li's money, but waved her hand and said, "Take this money back, and pay me the rent after she pays her salary!"
Tian Shao thought that this old lady looked fierce, but she was actually quite nice. Therefore, there were still many good people in the world.
The old lady is not in a hurry to ask for rent, because she is indeed a nice person; a regular worker in a textile factory in Ertianshao will not depend on her for rent, and she cannot afford to lose face.
After thanking her, she said to Mrs. Shen: "Grandma Shen, I will bring some things over tomorrow and officially move here over the weekend. Do you think it's okay?"
Today is Thursday. She will go home and tell her family about this the day after tomorrow, and then bring vegetables and firewood from home. Well, by then, whether it is her father or Erya who sends it to her, she will not need to take the bedding. Of course, by the way
Recognize the door.
After the house was rented, Tian Shao was taken to a state-owned hotel for dinner by Li's mother, and then returned to the factory. As soon as she entered the dormitory, she found that the atmosphere was not right. Gao Xiaofu's eyes were red and swollen, obviously from crying.
Before she could ask, Tang Yuanyuan said: "Tian Shao, there was a burglar in our dormitory. All the drawers were pried open. Xiaofu's money and meal stamps were stolen. Huang Xin's twenty yuan and ten yuan were stolen."
Two kilograms of food stamps are missing. I rummaged through my things but nothing was lost. Quickly see what you're missing?"
Tian Shao was very calm and said: "I keep all my money and food in the office. There are only pens, ink, paper and books here."
She works in the Finance Department. No matter how bold a thief is, he cannot go to her office and steal things. If he is caught, the crime will be serious.
Obviously Tian Shao was relieved too early. The thief did not know whether he had a mental problem or not and tore up one of her books. This book was borrowed from Teacher Li last week. Tian Shao was so angry that he turned blue: "
Have you reported the crime?”
Tang Yuanyuan shook his head and said: "I didn't report the crime, but Aunt Mao just called the people from the security department."
Tian Shao suddenly forgot that things like theft in dormitories are first investigated by the security department of the factory. If nothing is found, the case will be reported to the police.
After calming down, Tian Shao asked strangely: "There are people coming and going here. Didn't anyone see the thief breaking open the door?"
Tang Yuanyuan said with a bitter face: "The door lock of our dormitory door is not broken. The people from the security department just suspected that someone from our dormitory committed the crime. Tian Shao, I just told the people from the security department that you come off work at noon on weekdays.
They won't come back."
She has been living in the dormitory for almost two months. Tian Shao will only go back to the dormitory at noon when something happens. The main reason is that she can't sleep in the dormitory. The sound insulation here is too poor and someone will wake her up if she moves around. Moreover, the other three people in the dormitory will come back at any time. So she takes a nap.
Tian Shao is now in the office.
Chen Ping, the chief of the security department, quickly approached Tian Shao and asked her about her day's activities.
Tian Shao's life is very simple, just the three-point line, office, canteen, and dormitory. She said: "Today I was in the office during the day. After get off work, I went out with Aunt Yang, had lunch and returned to the office, and stayed there until dinner.
Go back to the dormitory. If you don’t believe it, you can ask my colleagues Accountant Zhao, Accountant Meng and Aunt Yang to verify it.”
Chen Ping believed in her. Such a smart person would not do anything to ruin his future. However, questioning is also a process, and this is indispensable: "Don't worry, I will go to Accountant Zhao and others to verify."
Tian Shao hummed and then said: "Chief Chen, my roommate just now said that the thief broke into the dormitory by breaking the lock. I suspect that the other party stole our roommate's key and took it to match. This thief should be the same as the one in our dormitory."
We have a good relationship with each other.”
You must know that outsiders are not allowed to enter the female workers' dormitory, and they must register if they have anything to do. But Aunt Mao said that there were no outsiders yesterday morning, and during this period she did not hear anyone from the dormitory say they had lost their keys, so the scope was greatly reduced.
Section Chief Chen glanced at Tian Shao in surprise. This girl reacted really quickly, but he quickly felt relieved after thinking about what she had done during this period. He said, "Don't worry, we will definitely catch this thief."
He actually went to the female worker's dormitory to steal money and food. He was really audacious. If he is not caught, he, the head of the security department, will lose his face.
Tian Shao nodded and said: "I hope Section Chief Chen will find the thief soon and let her pay for my book."
Alas, Teacher Li, who loves books very much, would definitely scold her when she saw the book being torn. Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a headache.
