In the next two days, the two went skating in Houhai. They all said that Houhai was home to royal palaces. But in fact, they were all palaces from the late Qing Dynasty. None of them were familiar to the Fourth Master. However, Houhai is very close to the Forbidden City.
If you are not careful, you can see red walls and black tiles.
It makes people feel a lot of sadness.
I originally wanted to eat the roast duck in Quanjude, but I didn’t realize how many people there were when I got inside. There were people eating on the tables and people waiting nearby. What’s worse is that if you wait for a long time, you may encounter someone who is closing.
It was time. At this time, the store would not let anyone get off work late. So, they stopped joining in the fun and turned around to cook the mutton.
There are many mutton-shabu-shabu shops, and everyone seems to have some unique skills.
After wandering like this for two days, Lin Yutong returned to Lin's house with a large bucket of oil. He put the oil bucket in a sack and tied it tightly. He didn't dare to let anyone see it.
I went home today and there were people at home. Lin’s mother took leave and was waiting for Lin Yutong. It turned out that this child was a heartless child. He went to play and didn’t even remember to go home. The other person at home was the second sister.
"You kid, why are you so honest?" Mother Lin said this to the Fourth Master. She felt that the two children had not come back in the past two days because they were trying to get oil. "This is enough to feed the family for several years.
"
"This is a year's supply. Next year, I'll find a way to ask someone to bring it back to you." Fourth Master said.
The second sister Lin pulled Lin Yutong, and then looked at the fourth master unabashedly, "Where did you find it? You are very energetic."
Where did you find it? It was brought back hundreds of years ago. This is the only one, there is no other semicolon.
Lin Yutong pursed her lips and smiled, and asked her, "Eldest sister is getting married over there, what about your side? What's the situation?"
"You think I'm a fool like the eldest sister?" Second Sister Lin flicked her pigtails, "A set of furniture, two elders return to the west, three turns and one ring, forty square meters, good facial features, no relatives, seventy yuan salary, exquisite appearance; wine (nine)
"I don't smoke; I'm very obedient." She snorted, "If you meet these requirements, I won't say anything and go get the certificate tomorrow."
Lin Yutong was dumbfounded. She suddenly discovered that no matter how the times changed, this woman's criteria for choosing a spouse seemed to have never changed. Many people in later generations said that the best conditions should be 'both parents are dead, have a car and a house'. But
In fact, going back to the past, the core has remained the same.
Let’s say three turns and one beep. Three turns refers to bicycles, sewing machines, and watches. One beep refers to radios.
The current value of a bicycle is definitely comparable to that of a car in later generations. This is no different from buying a car when getting married in later generations. A watch should be on the same level as a ring on a girl’s hand.
Forty square meters is definitely a big house for people nowadays. With so many people in the Lin family, it is only forty square meters. This condition is comparable to buying a small villa.
In a society where the average salary is less than thirty, if you ask for seventy-one months, you are definitely a high-paid person.
A set of furniture is equivalent to decorating a house.
The facial features are so good that they look longer than you can see.
He also doesn’t smoke or drink, and he is a completely obedient and loyal dog man.
After such a detailed analysis and comparison, it is true that there has been a gap of forty years. Everything has changed dramatically. Only the standards for women to find men have not changed.
It turns out that marrying a wife is easy, but that is really just an illusion. Big cities are different from our rural villages.
There are always differences between urban and rural areas!
This unreasonable world.
Second Sister Lin looked at the bucket of oil and said, "Don't be stupid and move everything home. At least take care of yourself. Seeing that my brother-in-law is so willing to spend money on our family, I still have nothing to say to you.
It is said that this man cares about his wife and sees everything in his mother-in-law’s family is good. This person in your family has a bit of this idea. This family is so crowded, and others don’t mind it.”
"Who doesn't live like this?" Lin Yutong glanced at Second Sister Lin, "That's pretty much it. Don't be dazzled."
Second Sister Lin rolled her eyes at her, "I'm afraid no one will want me."
During the meal, Sister Lin also came back. Also coming back with her was her elder brother-in-law. He seemed to be a simple and honest person. She probably thought it was not good to get married and live in her husband's house, so she said, "We will occupy one room in the house.
We start the fire ourselves. We can’t be so shameless as to take advantage of the family. In addition, we pay five yuan a month. I know it’s not much, but it’s our intention anyway.”
Sister Lin nodded, "That's what I meant too."
"You can open the fire yourself," Lin's father said. "Firstly, the family cannot afford food for one more person. Secondly, my eldest uncle is also a man. He also has to walk around outside. It is not good to tell people to eat for free at Yue's house.
If you start your own business, you can start your own business. When the house is built, there will definitely be a room for the eldest girl. Whether she gets married or not, she will keep it. If you want to come back and live there after getting married, what money will you have to pay?
The monthly total is less than sixty yuan. Having children will be a problem in the future. So, don’t mention money."
After that, Father Lin said to Fourth Master: "We have discussed it in the past two days. The area over there has also been measured. When you plan to build a house, just build it higher. The house doesn't need to be big, just divide it into two floors.
People can live in the upper part, and the lower part can be used as a kitchen. After calculation, the original two small rooms and two small kitchens can be turned into four rooms with upper and lower floors. Except for the eldest, the remaining four children have one room each.
. Even if you are not here, the house will be reserved for you."
"I know you don't come back to live because you know there is no place and don't bother me. How do you think we parents feel? We can't even provide a home for our children. This makes us feel better. What I mean is that it is with
You said, this house is reserved for you. No matter when you come back, your home will be there and you will have a place to stand."
Mother Lin wiped her hands on her apron and said, "That's what your father and I mean. Don't make people come back one after another, as if they were guests. Tongtong went to the countryside, but she can't be asked to come back. She feels that this home is not hers.
Already."
Lin Yutong never imagined that such a story would happen when he was not living at home.
Fourth Master said: "Okay. Those are not outsiders. I will find a way to build the house with bricks and tiles. They will be brought over in two days. They have to be built properly. Leave us a house. We will definitely live in it next time we come back."
Lin Yutong nodded quickly, isn't it a small duplex? The upper and lower floors are only seven or eight square meters in size. Many single apartments in later generations are not like this. They are well designed and comfortable to live in. Besides, this apartment will probably be demolished.
, the interval in between takes almost ten or twenty years. It’s a good deal.
The next day, Lin Yutong followed Fourth Master to the machinery factory. In this machinery factory, Fourth Master wanted to find the master who taught Yin Zhen.
"This master once studied abroad, spent several years in the Soviet Union, and later went to Europe. He spent time in Germany and the United Kingdom. He speaks fluent English and Russian. He is a very knowledgeable person. Because technology is irreplaceable,
The factory didn't hold him back either. He was just a showman. What should he do normally?" Fourth Master explained to Lin Yutong in a low voice.
Lin Yutong said belatedly, "Have you also taught Yin Zhen English and Russian?"
"At that time, Yin Zhen had a family and could not return. He was hanging out in the dormitory of the factory, working day by day. Where was this Master Yun? He was also homeless. His wife divorced him and left with the children...
..." The fourth master said nothing, and Lin Yutong understood, "When he faced this master, he thought of his father."
Fourth Master nodded, "In the end, two homeless people lived in a warehouse. One lost his son and the other lost his father. They had nothing to do at night, one taught and the other studied. When Yin Zhen was about to leave, this
The master was afraid that his problems would affect Yin Zhen's future, so he refused to contact him. In fact, the two of them still have a very deep relationship. I should pay him a visit when I come back this time."
When the two of them came over, Master Yun was still in the workshop. He was shocked when he saw Fourth Master, "You kid, when did you come back? Why didn't you hear about it?"
Fourth Master helped him out, "I didn't go back, I came to see the master."
Master Yun took Fourth Master to the office, "This is not the place to talk."
The Fourth Master nodded and followed Master Yun closely. Anyone who recognized Yin Zhen on the way greeted the Fourth Master.
Lin Yutong saw the master and apprentice talking inside, so she didn't go in and stood outside the door. Unexpectedly, she turned around and saw a woman in her forties walking over. She had short hair and a green scarf around her neck. It looked like
Some are black and some have gray hair.
She saw Lin Yutong stunned for a moment, then she looked inside.
Lin Yutong thought to herself, could she be Yin Zhen's mother? But then she thought, this is not the fourth master's biological mother. The Concubine De is the biological mother. Therefore, in her heart, the position of the mother-in-law, in addition to
Concubine De, no one can replace her.
As for this person, she didn't want to talk to him. So, her temperament changed and she immediately made people feel unattainable and a bit repulsive.
"Girl, who did you come with? Why haven't I seen you before?" Han Chunxia looked at Lin Yutong and asked.
Before Lin Yutong could speak, Fourth Master's voice came from inside, "Tongtong, come in. Who are you talking to? Come and meet Master Yun."
Lin Yutong glanced at Han Chunxia, responded, pushed the door open and went in.
"You kid, you didn't even say you were going home when you came back. If others hadn't told you, I wouldn't have known you were back. Now that your wings are hardened, you don't recognize me as your mother, right?" Han Chunxia raised the curtain and looked towards
Fourth Master.
Immediately, her eyes turned red.
Is this his son? Why does the look in his eyes look so strange?
