In a strange place, she actually slept very alertly. This was closer to an instinct.
I opened my eyes and listened carefully. It was the nanny who went downstairs quietly. I looked at the time and saw that it was almost the time I usually get up. It is a habit to insist on exercising, which is also an instinct.
Laziness is a state, and it is not inconsistent with getting up early to exercise.
As for the fourth master, we can't force him to get up now. With today's conditions, he has to run around outside when he is busy, and there is a lot of walking to do with both feet. He does not lack this little bit of exercise in the morning.
So, she got up quietly, washed briefly, and then went downstairs even more quietly.
Lin Shuangchao was stunned for a moment when he went down. He had the habit of getting up early to exercise. After getting up early to wash up, he would drink a glass of warm water, then put on his sneakers and exercise for half an hour. He did this every day. If the weather was bad, he would stay in place under the shelter at the door.
Exercise for a while.
Just as I was about to go out today, I saw Tongtong getting up.
While changing his shoes, he asked, "What? Are you not used to the new environment?"
Lin Yutong laughed, "I get up at this time every day, and I must do Tai Chi in the yard."
Being able to persist in exercising is a positive attitude towards life.
Lin Shuangchao pointed outward, "Together?"
OK!
Tongtong also changed her shoes and went to exercise with Lin Shuangchao.
Needless to say, the environment of this community is really excellent. When jogging along the road in the community, when we meet each other, everyone will nod and smile or raise their hands to say hello. There is no need to communicate in private if they have work to do.
In other words, everyone's time is very tight, and they usually don't interfere with each other's exercise. Lin Yutong ran with Lin Shuangchao for twenty minutes, then slowed down and walked home slowly.
Lin Shuangchao then asked, "It can be seen that he is insisting on exercising. That's it! People, you must first have a good body. It is right to read history books. In just a few decades, a person's life will not be the same.
It's not all smooth sailing! Ups and downs are the normal state of life. People in the world always look at this person's glamorous appearance, and they don't know what he has gone through behind the scenes for this glamorous appearance. Look at the ups and downs in the history books and the changes in the world.
With the impermanence of life, I feel that nothing is impossible to overcome.”
Lin Yutong laughed and said, "Yes! I am writing a long novel about the empress. After I finish it, please help me read it when you are free."
Are you really writing? You need to be familiar with the history before the Tang Dynasty.
"It's half done. Let's see if the first draft can be completed before this summer." Lin Yutong said, "The first part has been read by an editor. The publication is basically settled. After proofreading, it may be published by the end of this year.
.”
Lin Shuangchao smiled and said, "Okay! I will have gifts to give to people during the Chinese New Year this year."
Lin Yutong laughed. Previously, the publishing house collected all his short stories and short stories and published an anthology. Because almost half of them were adapted into TV series, the book sold well. However, the sample book was sold by Lin Shuangchao.
I gave it away. And I gave it away to a lot of people! Many people took the initiative to buy it and then took the time to read it, just to have something to talk about when talking to him. It is said that one of his subordinates talked to him about this, and he chatted with them for half the time.
hours.
Yes! When people reach this age and reach this position in their lives, everyone knows how much further they can progress. At this point, their own achievements are no longer their concern. Instead, their children have become their spirit.
Another solace.
Lin Yutong never paid attention to what other people's children were like.
But for You Lin Shuangchao, having a daughter who has become famous and started a family through her own abilities is something worth showing off to anyone.
Walking home, Xiao Zhang had already prepared the meal.
Not only that, Yu Rong came here early in the morning.
"Why so early?" Lin Yutong wiped his face and asked Yurong, "Did you send Shanshan here?"
Yu Rong grabbed a bun and said, "I have to go to work, so I didn't send my children here. I just came here to ask you, how did you arrange the schools for the two children? Jin Kuai goes to kindergarten, government kindergarten is fine. She is obviously in elementary school, and hers How about the school? Is it the same school as Shanshan? How about I take you to the principal's house on my way to get off work tonight..."
Jin Mingming said, "That elementary school is not close, it's three stops away! Behind our community, after exiting the small gate, isn't there an elementary school in an alley diagonally opposite?"
"That's not a key elementary school." Yurong pulled Jin Mingming's head aside, "Don't make trouble and go eat."
Jin Mingming didn't want to go three stops away because it would be troublesome, "I'll just go nearby."
Lin Yutong also thought so, "Just go to school nearby! If it's nearby, Jin Mingming can go to school by himself without being sent to school."
Yurong felt: "You don't care too much about your children's schooling! The point is that it's different...most of the children go to school there..."
Jin Mingming interjected: "Those special schools have been abolished long ago, and they even issued special education..."
Hey! What a naughty kid.
Lin Yutong urged Rong, "Hurry up, you're late! Go to work. If there's anything you don't know later, I'll call you to ask."
Done! "Don't mess around, I'll do it."
good!
After urging Yu Rong away, Lin Shuangchao freshened up and went out to have breakfast, praising Jin Mingming, "Don't follow your aunt's example. She hasn't learned well and can't be a role model."
Hmm! Then can I go to the school at the back?
Lin Shuangchao nodded, "Your grandpa went to private school for two years. It's the same wherever he goes. The principles won't change because he goes to different schools. It's up to you to decide where you want to go!"
While drinking milk, Jin Mace said: "Not being close...it's very stupid!"
Lin Shuangchao laughed loudly, "Yes! Very stupid."
When the fourth master came down, he saw that the two children were getting along very well with their grandfather. He walked quickly to the first floor and said, "Dad, Mom, I got up late."
It’s not too late, we’re early! Come on, it’s time to eat.
I was letting my son-in-law go, and I saw two children on the other side getting up. They waited until their parents sat down before the two children sat down.
Wu Xiuzhen pushed the custard to the two children, "Eat quickly, there are no such rules."
Lin Shuangchao glanced at Wu Xiuzhen and said, "Don't be spoiled, I think it's fine."
Wu Xiuzhen rolled her eyes at him. She didn't know what her background was and thought she had learned some pedantic tricks. After dinner, Lin Shuangchao went to work.
Fourth Master had to go back today and asked Tongtong, "Is there anything else you want to bring?"
"Dried tofu, bring the dried tofu."
become!
Wu Xiuzhen saw her little daughter and her family standing at the gate. The son-in-law was about to leave, and the couple had to hug them. After hugging them, the son-in-law rubbed the two children's heads. You didn't have to listen to know that this was to tell the two children to be obedient.
Then the daughter and her two children waved to her son-in-law, probably seeing the car turning and losing sight of it, so they walked back.
Wu Xiuzhen: "..." What happened to my daughter back then? She got a gangster son-in-law. As a result, her life is so awkward.
The two children had not yet started school, but they went to read and practice calligraphy as soon as they came back. My daughter followed suit and said, "Mom, didn't you go shopping with Xiao Zhang? Go ahead."
No! Let me talk to you.
Tongtong looked back at her, "Oh my God, I have to work right now! Don't ask me to get up early and catch the late market! You have to learn from my mother-in-law on this point. My mother-in-law never gets up early.
Disturb my work..."
Wu Xiuzhen: "..." My mother is not as considerate as my mother-in-law! There is nothing I can do to explain.
But there were footsteps coming and going in the house, and suddenly I felt so good! Then I changed into a big bag and took Xiao Zhang to buy groceries.
I didn’t go to beef and mutton stalls before because I thought they were expensive. But today Wu Xiuzhen went here first, “Sihai seems to prefer beef and mutton, so I need to buy more... By the way, I’ll also buy some chicken wings and legs...
The oven sent by my comrades was not even opened, so I went back to call Xiaotong to see if she can use it... The kids love to eat baked goods."
Xiao Zhang then laughed, "It would be nice if there were more people in the house to make it more lively."
Yes! Yes! It would be nice to be more lively. In the past, when Lao Lin went to work, he was the only one left. Who can he talk to in this place? Besides, not all people are housewives like me. Many of their family members have jobs.
, and he is not old enough to retire. This means he has no time to chat with himself.
Day by day, it feels like going to jail. What will my grandson do when he goes to school? Before, there was a mother-in-law who could talk and take care of her. But after her mother-in-law disappeared, I had to deal with the nanny day by day, and she had to work. So
In a big family, people are very busy. Xiao Zhang is afraid when she has to work. She always feels that she didn't do it well. But if she doesn't do the work, what should she do?
Even Yu Rong and Gao Cheng often come here, and that's after get off work. Now that I'm better, I have someone who works at home for a long time, and the feeling is still different.
A daughter who can live with her daughter is a good daughter, but a son-in-law who can live with her daughter is an even better son-in-law. How other parents treat their daughters, we must treat other people's sons.
Therefore, she told Xiao Zhang on the way, "Sihai is not the son-in-law of the family, he is the son of the family just like Yucai. If there is anything at home, you don't have to ask me for my opinion. You can ask Xiaotong or Sihai."
Okay. Don’t think that your son-in-law cannot be the head of the father-in-law’s family. This is wrong.”
Xiao Zhang answered every sentence, and felt in his heart that the two couples who moved in were very suitable for this environment.
How do you say this match?
The performance is particularly obvious.
Just as we were having lunch, Director Wang from the Affairs Bureau came to the door politely and said with a smile: "I heard that my child is going to transfer to another school. This is a good thing! School starts in three days. I will arrange the transfer procedures."
Then I saw Tongtong very politely asking me to sit down, and then expressed my gratitude, "Your work is so important, so I'd like to thank you for bothering me for this little thing. If it's not too much trouble, please ask the teacher for help."
I will go there in advance when school starts. Firstly, your work is important, and it would be too much of your time to make a special trip for this. Secondly, I also want to meet the teacher in advance and communicate with the teacher about the child.
situation."
Director Wang's face was filled with a smile, "It's not worth anything. I'll call you as promised later."
Lin Yutong said to the two children, "Why don't you thank Uncle Wang for worrying about your schooling."
The child hurriedly thanked him.
Lin Yutong turned around and asked Xiao Zhang to take a bagful of vegetables from the greenhouse and handed them to others, "Try it, I grew it myself, don't dislike it."
Oops! It’s better to grow it at home.
From the kitchen window, Xiao Zhang saw Xiaotong sending the guests away with a smile. He couldn't help but remember that when Yurong asked Shanshan to go to a key elementary school, she used her home phone to call Director Wang. On the phone
She said, "Director Wang, my child has to go to elementary school. What should I do with this procedure... I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you."
Then Director Wang personally completed the procedures.
In fact, Director Wang deals with these trivial matters most of the time, but at this time, I asked Director Wang who he would rather deal with.
Help the teacher to find out when school starts. This is something that most people cannot know. And who can Director Wang ask? He has to ask the principal or some leaders of the education department.
This is actually saying hello in advance! It will go smoothly if Tongtong goes to do things after he is done. With great respect for Director Wang, he will get things done.
Please ask Director Wang to inquire. This is to respect Director Wang's identity and use Director Wang's connections.
But what do you think you are doing by asking Director Wang to run errands?
Wu Xiuzhen's expression changed slightly while sitting on the sofa. She was a little scared. It would be okay if Yurong moved in. Without this comparison, she just felt that Yurong was too arrogant and she didn't realize what the problem was.
So as soon as Tongtong came back, Wu Xiuzhen waved, "Come here, come quickly." Tongtong passed by and then sat down. Wu Xiuzhen whispered, "I'm afraid there is something really wrong with your second sister. At home,
How can it be like this in the workplace? Now you have the face of your father... In the future..."
Lin Yutong frowned slightly, "It's okay, don't be nervous. Many people are afraid that they may not be as good as my second sister! I'm watching, and I'll talk to her later."
Wu Xiuzhen sighed, "There are some bad things here! Your father said a lot of things about your second sister, and they are not unreasonable."
It is easy to discipline oneself, but difficult to discipline one's relatives.
But this matter can't be rushed, we have to take our time and look at it before talking about it.
While I was talking, the phone rang. It was Director Wang calling, "Writer Lin..."
"Hey, you can call me Xiaolin or Xiaotong. We often come and go. I'm embarrassed that you are so polite."
The other side laughed and said, "Okay, let's call her Xiaotong. Xiaotong, the kindergarten and elementary school have already said hello. The elementary school behind said it was Hou'er at eight o'clock in the morning, and the principal will be there. The principal's surname is Qian, so you can go directly
The office will be fine. The kindergarten is over there. School starts on the 16th day of the first lunar month, so you can just go there with your children to report."
OK! Thank you.
In fact, the biggest obstacle to going to school is household registration, which is very difficult to obtain now. But my family is located near the center of the city and bought a piece of land. The place used to be a vehicle maintenance workshop, but it was later sold by the employer. Fourth Master
I bought it two years ago.
Nowadays, if you need to apply for a household registration, you will be eligible for settlement if you make a large amount of investment. The household registration can be registered at the address of the vehicle repair shop.
As a result, the fourth master came back in the middle of the afternoon and said, "Don't go to so much trouble. I can buy a small three-bedroom apartment nearby. Since I'm qualified, can't I put it together with the house?"
Otherwise, it can be done under the name of Lin Shuangchao in the form of being affiliated with his parents.
In fact, this is unnecessary!
It's very troublesome to talk about this, but if there are these procedures for buying a house, it will be easy to find someone to handle it.
Once the child's household registration was settled, he went to the elementary school to meet with Principal Qian.
Principal Qian was very polite: "Originally, I should have waited yesterday, but it turned out that I was in my hometown at that time and I would not be able to make it back..."
She was extremely warm and polite, and repeatedly promised, "I will definitely put you in the best class and be taught by the best teacher."
"My child is very naughty, so the teacher just needs to keep strict control." In fact, if Director Wang hadn't taken the initiative to find him, she wouldn't be willing to let the school know about Jin Mingming's family background. It's not necessary!
Look! If you know this, you will still lean towards Jin Mingming.
Just finish elementary school and don't speak after that, and you'll be fine.
It took Tongtong eight minutes to walk slowly from home to school. With Jin Mingming's running speed, five minutes was enough.
Yu Rong and Yu Lian came back to celebrate the Lantern Festival. Yu Rong complained to Tong Tong, "You didn't learn any other skills. You just learned some of Dad's inappropriate aloofness! What happened to being an official? Being an official
You have to be a human being first. As for humans, many things are human nature. Can’t we say that if he is a good official, others will not be good officials? This is not necessarily the case.”
There are no outsiders at home today, so Xiao Zhang is given a holiday and asked to go home for the holidays.
The only family at home was her three sons-in-law in the dining room and her three sisters in the kitchen. Wu Xiuzhen looked at the children, fearing that they might stumble somewhere.
As soon as he said this, Gao Cheng immediately shouted: "Your mouth should be sewn shut. If dad hears this, it will start a fight again."
Lin Yutong pushed the dumpling stuffing over and looked at Yurong, "Second sister, if others hear what you say, can they say you are justified? No! They have to say, look, this is just picking up the bowl to eat meat and putting it down.
The bowl is scolding the mother!"
Yulian quickly and quietly pulled Tongtong: "Don't you dare to say that? You are sincerely quarreling with your second sister."
When Yurong saw the eldest sister's tug, she snorted, "Eldest sister, don't say anything. Ask her to speak and finish the sentence."
Lin Yutong laughed and said, "Who is willing to quarrel with you? It's just this matter, not that matter! Only those who are worthy of their position must be worthy of their position. This will not cause trouble. Some things cannot be accomplished without a network of contacts! I know you
The method of operation is to share resources in your circle, right?"
Yu Rong was not annoyed and said very sincerely, "You will know after you stay for a long time. In this circle, it is not that if you don't join, others will not pull you. As time goes by and you come into contact with more people, you will know
Yes, my father is really unsociable sometimes. You know if you are unsociable, sometimes it is particularly dangerous. I don’t want to think about that day, I don’t even know why. So, do you understand?
?”
Lin Yutong slowly washed his hands under the water faucet and sighed in his heart. Who told you that if you don't fit in with others, you will definitely fail? Neutrality is sometimes a stance.
This kind of stance is about the situation and not the person. In this way, you will not make mistakes. If you always do the right thing without making mistakes, if this is not safe, then I would like to ask, what is safe?
Yurong's voice was even lower and she told Tongtong, "Besides, we don't have such a deep background in the capital."
Lin Yutong looked at Yurong helplessly: Who told you that you must have a background? No one is involved, this is a very unique background.
Just as he was talking, Lin Shuangchao came back. I wonder if he heard the argument just now in the yard, but there was no change in his face when he came in.
It was just while eating that Lin Shuangchao suddenly asked Tongtong: "I have read history. Have you read any interesting stories? Let me tell you a story."
These words sounded like he was taking a test for school. Yurong lightly slapped her little sister with her shoulder: Look! Dad is just such a person. When you talk to him, you can’t tell a lie! He can tell you the truth regardless of the occasion.
.
Tongtong smiled, glanced at Fourth Master, and said, "...I'll tell the story another day. Today I'll talk about a historical figure."
Jin Mingming and Jin Kai ran over and squatted aside to listen to the story.
Lin Shuangchao nodded and signaled Tongtong to just talk.
Lin Yutong said, "The man I'm talking about is a minister of the Qing Dynasty, named Chen Tingjing. This man was born in the twelfth year of Chongzhen. When he was twenty years old, that is, the fifteenth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, he won the Jinshi.
Later, he was elected as a Shujishi. Why do you say this person? Because people have been on the ups and downs throughout their lives, and they have never been demoted in their official career. At the age of twenty, he became a minor review official. At the age of twenty-three, Kangxi
When the emperor ascended the throne, he started as a daily lecturer in the daily life, and was promoted to a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy, and then a bachelor's degree in the academy. He lectured to Emperor Kangxi every day in the Hongde Hall. He was very talented and highly regarded.
.”
When Gao Cheng thought about it, he seemed to have some understanding! When his father-in-law started his business, he relied on a pen! It was because he could write materials with a pen that he had the opportunity to move forward.
This is actually similar.
"When this man was thirty-five years old, he was already the deputy examiner of the martial arts examination. At the age of thirty-eight, he was promoted to cabinet bachelor. At the age of forty-three, he was the deputy examiner of the imperial examination. At the age of forty-five, he was appointed as Zuo Du Yu.
History, and supervises the money law of the Ministry of Household Affairs. He can be said to be an important minister in the court. It is at this time that his ability to do things is highlighted. In charge of the money law, he is currently considered to be "public-minded, caring for the people, diligent and honest". For
He severely reprimanded local officials and asked them to disclose the financial and food accounts for disaster relief, so as to prevent corrupt officials from harming the people's interests as much as possible.
When he was forty-six years old, he wrote to the court, saying that it was time to encourage honesty and eliminate corruption. He believed that luxury was the root of corruption and that only through frugality could one be clean. That year, the court took this as a starting point to rectify the atmosphere in the court.
When he was forty-seven years old, he was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Because he rectified the official administration and offended many people, he was impeached in the same year. But the dramatic thing is that he was not convicted, but the officials who impeached him, and in
The next year, he was hanged for corruption. At this time, he happened to be mourning and prayed to go home and observe mourning. However, the voice of impeachment continued, but this man uprightly maintained his integrity and did not find out anything illegal. The observance of mourning did not end.
, he was again appointed as the censor of Zuodu.
At the age of fifty-nine, Chen Tingjing was already a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, concurrently serving as Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and held the position of prime minister!
When he was sixty-six years old, Chen Tingjing asked to become an official because of his deafness, and Emperor Kangxi allowed it. However, in the second year, because ministers like Li Guangdi were ill and there was insufficient manpower, Emperor Kangxi recalled him and continued to retain him. At the age of sixty-eight,
One year, he became seriously ill. Emperor Kangxi went to the Imperial Hospital to see him in person, but he became seriously ill and died soon after.
He has been an official for forty-eight years and has never been demoted. Count how many people are like him in the history books. This person occupies a high position and coincides with the complicated background of nine sons competing for the throne. He does not form any clique.
Don’t be selfish, be flawless, start well and end well.”
Gao Cheng's expression changed drastically and he looked at Yu Rong, "I'm telling you this, do you understand?"
No cliques, no selfish interests, no time to spare, so start well and end well!
