Li Aihua went to a state-owned restaurant and ordered two meat dishes, one was braised pork and the other was kung pao chicken. When she opened the door and walked in, she saw Accountant Chen, who had been serious before, talking to Tian Shao in a friendly manner.
Li Aihua was surprised. She had only been out for half an hour, but why did Aunt Chen's attitude change drastically? She took the two dishes to the kitchen and asked Li's mother softly: "Mom, is Lingling behaving well?"
Mother Li smiled and said: "I originally thought that what you said was Lingling's boasting, but now I know that what she said is considered modest."
"What?"
Mother Li said: "Lingling is not only a quick learner, she can also draw inferences from one instance to another. And she doesn't boast, she is really good at mental arithmetic. Your Aunt Chen reported the results as soon as she reported the data. This child is made to be an accountant.
"
Li Aihua raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Mom, do you think I'm right? Lingling is indeed excellent."
How can a person who is not outstanding be able to obtain an outstanding diploma through self-study at home? Li Aihua thinks such a person is worth helping.
Mother Li smiled and said, "You didn't make a mistake this time. This child is not only smart but also measured. You can have a deep friendship with her."
Mainly because she saw Tian Shao's clear eyes and decent manners and words, which made Li's mother very satisfied.
It was rare for her mother to recognize her valued friend. Li Aihua hugged his mother's arm and smiled sweetly: "Mom, Lingling's family is not having a good time. Please tell Aunt Chen later that you will charge less money."
Mother Li poked her forehead and said: "This is not about buying things and bargaining. Your Aunt Chen can ask for as much as you want. If I say it, I will lose her face. Don't worry, your Aunt Chen likes her.
I won’t ask for more money.”
Li Aihua thought about Accountant Chen's look just now, nodded and said, "Mom, aren't my old clothes not wearable? I want to give them all to Lingling, do you think it's okay?"
Mother Li was not a stingy person, so she laughed and scolded: "You are not as tall as Lingling, so she can't wear the clothes you gave her!"
Even though the Tian family had little food and clothing, they could still grow so tall. My daughter felt that all the food she had eaten over the years was a waste.
"She has four younger sisters. If she can't wear it, she can wear it for her sister!"
Mother Li said helplessly: "You can decide on your own clothes."
Seeing Accountant Chen put away the paper and pen, Mother Li walked out and said with a smile: "Sister Chen, I've prepared this dish, you can eat some more."
Accountant Chen declined politely, and then said to Tian Shao: "Lingling, I live in the second family building of the garment factory. You can come at nine o'clock tomorrow and just give me my name when you arrive."
"good."
Mother Li grabbed her and said, "Sister Chen, don't leave. It's not too late to go back after eating more."
Seeing her refusal, Mother Li sent her out without any further persuasion. When Tian Shao followed, she stopped her and said, "It's good if I send her off. You won't have enough rice balls for lunch. Go and eat some more with Aihua."
Tian Shao saw that the two of them had something to say, so he didn't go to see him off.
There were people coming and going in the family corridor and it was difficult to talk privately. It was not until they reached the street below that Li's mother asked about the tuition fee.
Accountant Chen didn’t say she didn’t want money. After all, she had to put in time and energy. Of course, the most important thing is that her family’s finances are quite tight right now: “Just thirty! I can see from her dress that her family is not rich either, so the money is waiting for her.
I'll give it to you after you start working."
Mother Li smiled and said, "Sister Chen, are you so sure that she will be admitted to the textile factory?"
Accountant Chen said: "This child belongs to God's food. I don't dare to say who will be ranked first after a month with me. He will definitely be in the top three. The textile factory has made so much noise this time, so there should be no unofficial appointment."
The subtext of this statement is that Tian Shao will definitely be admitted to the textile factory. Of course, even if he is not admitted, he can still be admitted to other factories. As long as he has real ability, there will always be a leader who has a keen eye for talents.
Mother Li felt very happy when she heard this. It turned out that Tian Lingling was not someone to be fooled at first glance. She was about to enter the factory, and it would not be so easy for those scheming people in the factory to plot against her daughter.
When she returned home, she saw her daughter and Tian Shao waiting for her to eat. Mother Li was very happy. She went to the kitchen to get a bowl and gave San Kui some vegetables before sitting down to eat.
Tian Shao thought that Li's mother was really meticulous. But Li's mother saw that Tian Shao was careful and well-educated when eating, and thought that this education was really good. She didn't know how her parents raised her.
They had just finished their meal, and Sankui came back with his basket before putting down the bowls and chopsticks. When they sat down and saw the dishes in the bowls, they had no time to think about anything else and just immersed themselves in it.
Mother Li's smile deepened when she saw that in addition to the two jars of honey, there was also a piece of bacon and two smoked rabbit meat. It was not that she was greedy for these things, but she felt that Tian Shao was a capable person.
She put the bacon back into her backpack and said to Tian Shao, "I bought this honey and two smoked rabbits. As for this piece of bacon, you take it back to your family to eat."
Li Aihua also said: "Yes, Lingling, take it back quickly. If my family wants to eat meat, they can go to the state-owned restaurant to buy it. You gave us the bacon. If you want to eat meat, you have to wait until the Chinese New Year."
She heard that in the countryside, the only way to get meat was by killing pigs in the New Year team, and she was reluctant to buy meat tickets on weekdays.
Tian Shao nodded and said: "Auntie, I give these things to you for free. Sister Li has helped me so much. I have nothing else but some mountain products."
How could Mrs. Li want Tian Shao's things for free? Besides giving Tian Shao twenty yuan, she also gave her a stack of industrial papers. When Tian Shao refused to accept it, she said, "If you don't want it, I don't want you either."
Take it back!"
Except for their youngest son, everyone in her family had salary certificates, so some industrial certificates could not be used up. Because industrial certificates also had a date limit, she gave away the ones she could not use.
Tian Shao had no choice but to accept it.
Mother Li had a good impression of Tian Shao and was willing to help her more: "Lingling, have you found a place to live? If not, let me find out for you."
Tian Shao quickly shook his head and said: "No, no, I have asked my brother to help. I have made an appointment with him to go to him when the things here are done."
Mother Li felt that she was quite considerate in her work, and she liked her more and more, and then told her about Accountant Chen.
Accountant Chen’s full name is Chen Lan, and he is a person with a strong personality. Fifteen years ago, due to natural disasters and man-made disasters, the family was short of food, but at this most difficult time, Accountant Chen’s husband stole ten kilograms of food from the family and gave it to his best friend.
As a result, her eldest daughter starved to death. After the incident, Accountant Chen divorced the man despite everyone's persuasion. Her two sons returned to the man, and she lived alone with her younger daughter.
The younger daughter Chen Yushuang got married when she was eighteen. The man was a truck driver for a transportation company. The couple loved each other. Seeing his daughter live happily, Accountant Chen felt relieved. Unexpectedly, at this time, his son-in-law had an accident in a car.
No more. In order to keep their job and pension for themselves, the man’s parents hid the two children with relatives. Chen Yushuang compromised for the sake of the two children. What makes people angry is that when the two children were returned, the youngest daughter Xiaohe had hair
High fever. It turned out that a relative's child pushed Xiao He into the pond, and no one cared about her cold and fever in the cold winter. Because of the delay in treatment, Xiao He got the root of the disease. After that, Xiao He had to go to the hospital every now and then, which made the family's finances very tight.
Last year, Accountant Chen retired and his second daughter-in-law wanted to take over her job. Accountant Chen asked for 500 yuan but the other daughter would not pay. Then Accountant Chen gave the job to someone else in exchange for 800 yuan, and then took the money with his daughter-in-law.
The granddaughter went to the provincial capital for medical treatment. After half a year of treatment in the provincial capital, Xiaohe's health gradually improved, but her second son's family completely divorced her. As for the eldest son, they had no contact because of resentment over the divorce.
Tian Shao was in awe. She had heard many times that daughters were sacrificed for their sons, but there were very few like Accountant Chen.
