Even in the elevator, there is a small whiteboard hanging on it that says ‘×× days until the opening of the Asian Games’.
Speaking of elevators, Lin Yutong was puzzled because he didn't understand why someone should be assigned to drive the elevator?
This is not a hospital or a freight elevator. There is an elevator man watching over it, so it can be safer. This is not a big hotel or a big company. There is a dedicated elevator operator, which makes it look respectable.
This is the building where I live, and the elevator is not a high-tech thing that is difficult to master.
Therefore, every time Lin Yutong entered the elevator and saw her aunt sitting on a bench leaning against the edge of the elevator, she would murmur.
Sometimes, this aunt often brings her little grandson inside. Lin Yutong doesn't object to this. Who doesn't have someone who doesn't want to take advantage of the situation? But dragging three or five people to chat in the elevator, this
It seems bad.
When the family of five came home, there was nowhere to fit them in the elevator. These aunts were still very unaware. They looked at Lin Yutong stepping on the edge of the elevator and wondered if they would not come in.
This is what happened when I came back today. It was just after the New Year, and it was still snowing outside. After walking all the way back, the soles of my shoes were a little wet. But as soon as the elevator door opened, five aunts who were obviously chatting stood against the elevator to make some space.
It's not enough for me at all. Moreover, a lift of melon seed peels and peanut shells will all stick to my shoes in a short while.
"Which floor are you going to? Why don't you go up first and we'll wait for the next one." Lin Yutong said and stopped entering the elevator. Wait!
The aunts came out with their lips curled up, leaving only the aunt who drove the elevator looking a little embarrassed.
Lin Yutong just didn't know, "I just came down. Do I think I'm going up?"
The elevator lady smiled sheepishly and said, "They are all family members of the employees, waiting to be arranged for work. May I ask how the salary of operating an elevator is like?"
There were many new people in the institute, and Lin Yutong really didn't recognize all of them.
She nodded and said with a smile: "No matter how much it costs, it's easy at least."
"It's not easy either. Being locked up in this coffin and box day after day, going up and down, makes you dizzy." As he said this, the elevator arrived.
Lin Yutong followed Fourth Master out of the elevator.
This aunt is really honest, no coffin or box is considered unlucky.
The Fourth Master said as he opened the door: "Nowadays, it is like this everywhere. There are too many people and too many people. There are so many dispensable people..." As he said this, he shook his head. This iron rice bowl is becoming less and less solid.
Who says it's not the case? The building is built, and each unit has two elevators and two elevator workers.
This is not how money is spent at all. This is not how things should be done to solve everyone's jobs.
After entering the door, Yusheng said: "I think Fat Grandma is quite good. She has set up a stall at the entrance of the community to sell vegetables. She is not much better than this person who is waiting to arrange work."
One person has one idea, and most people are still willing to eat ready-made food.
As soon as I walked in, the phone rang at home. Now, the phone is installed in the house. Not only it is installed in my house, but most of the people in this building are installed.
There is no need to share the phone. Isn’t the fat aunt unemployed? But she sells vegetables, so the business is actually not bad.
Lin Yutong was thinking about it, and Ye Sheng answered the phone, "Mom... this is my grandma..."
Lin Yutong changed into slippers, ran over and took the phone, "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Are we here?" Lin's mother's voice was particularly loud.
Lin Yutong covered her ears and understood a little bit. The old lady didn't use the phone very much in the past. Now that she has a phone at home, she is so new that she doesn't know what to do. She always thinks about calling others. When she talks, she is very loud.
Her voice was so loud that others could not hear clearly. Now she thought of calling herself, which would really amuse her. Lin Yutong threatened her, "Mom, the phone bill is not cheap, how many cents a minute does it cost? If you are fine, you can
Call 11 and check the weather forecast. Don’t call 110. The police don’t have time to chat with you.”
Mother Lin hung up the phone with a bang.
This old lady is so funny!
"My grandpa also said that now our family is treated like high-ranking officials. We have installed a telephone." Zhensheng shook his head. Then he smiled and said: "When we originally lived in Tongzi Building, we had just installed a telephone. Brother Jianghuai called my uncle.
I still remember one."
I think of it the same as yesterday. It's only been a few years, and the phone calls are slowly becoming less common.
"The big brother the second uncle got is the most awesome mobile phone." Ye Sheng said and asked the fourth master, "Dad, don't you buy one?"
Before the fourth master could speak, Lin Yutong shook his head first, "Pull it down! That thing is so heavy. You haven't seen those business people, the secretaries are holding the phones. I didn't know why before, but I didn't realize it until I actually weighed it in my hand.
, this thing is very tiring to hold. It costs tens of thousands to buy a phone, and it also has to be accompanied by a secretary, so don’t do this."
The children laughed. The Fourth Master also said that Lin Yutong was exaggerating.
But Lin Yutong said, if you have a mobile phone in two years, why do you need this big brick? It’s free!
Lin Yutong smiled and entered the kitchen with an apron. Xiaofang went home to get married this year. From now on, the couple will open a small restaurant, so it is impossible for her to be a live-in nanny.
"No, please hire a part-time worker." Fourth Master followed the kitchen to discuss with Lin Yutong.
"No, there are a few of us and our children are old enough to help. It won't be a bother." Lin Yutong cleaned up the kitchen and pushed the fourth master out, "You don't need to be there, I can do it alone."
"Go out in time and buy another freezer. The refrigerator looks crowded." The fourth master glanced at the overcrowded refrigerator and then thought of something.
"Okay! I see, it seems that there is a fully automatic washing machine. Let's replace the one at home." Lin Yutong whispered to the fourth master, "It's called Wife Pai."
The fourth master looked at Lin Yutong and smiled and said: "Nonsense, how can a real wife be willing to ask her to do the laundry? Let's hire a part-time worker. Clean the house and do the laundry every day. You can do the cooking."
Yusheng rolled up his sleeves and entered the kitchen. Hearing the fourth master's words, Yusheng clicked his tongue, "Mom! You said I can't find anyone better than my dad in the future, but what should I do? Marrying anyone is so boring."
"Daddy supports you! It's okay." The fourth master heard this most from his daughter.
Look at how tired the father and daughter are.
Ye Sheng and Zhen Sheng turned on the TV and played games to pass levels.
The fourth master was also very enthusiastic about this. He pushed the two children aside and started playing by himself. The three of them were laughing and joking. After all, it was Ye Sheng who reacted faster and fought best.
During the meal, Yu Sheng gave the Fourth Master some scrambled eggs with tomatoes, "Dad, try it. I made this."
The fourth master was very considerate and kept praising me.
"I also think it's okay to have a part-time job. It's awkward to have outsiders at home." Zhensheng said while grabbing food. Especially when they have grown up and there is a little girl nanny at home, sometimes it feels inconvenient.
Ye Sheng nodded, "The key is, don't you think mom's cooking tastes better?"
It's not a question of craftsmanship, but a question of raw materials.
The spring water and the dishes in the space taste better.
For the health of the family, it is actually better to cook by yourself.
The children started school early this semester because they are junior high school students and only have five days of holiday during the Chinese New Year. It’s time to make up classes.
After the children went to school, the two drove to the mall to buy a washing machine and a freezer.
As soon as we entered the mall, the sound of music seemed to take people back in time. They were all songs from the 1950s and 1960s.
This is called "Red Sun Fever", and there are vendors selling these tapes everywhere.
There are even portraits of great men made into pendants. The Fourth Master spent one yuan to buy one for his car.
You only have to pay for the freezer and washing machine and they will deliver them to your door, which is a lot more convenient.
The two of them came out of the mall and followed the crowd to a nearby cinema.
Lin Yutong regretted buying the ticket. She cried every time she watched this movie.
This time, it's no exception.
"Only mothers are good in the world... A mother's child is like a treasure..."
As the music played, her tears couldn't stop flowing down. Not only did she take out a handkerchief for herself, she also stuffed one into her fourth master's hand.
She didn't dare to turn her head and look at Fourth Master for fear that he would feel embarrassed.
For such an emotional person like him, he must have shed a lot of tears right now.
In the cinema, the sound of sobs continued. In my ears, the fourth master said faintly: "I don't know what Honghui and the others will do if we leave. Are they sad? When we were all grown up, we still thought about what we wanted to do in the garden in the middle of the night.
Running away, how sad this child will be without us!"
Can you please not provoke me?
Besides, Honghui already had grandchildren by then. He didn’t want Amma’s little brat anymore.
I was thinking this in my heart, but I still cried to myself through the movie.
After leaving the cinema, the two couldn't help laughing again.
It was even more funny when I saw people who had already watched one show and wanted to watch the second one, and who came out to sell handkerchiefs on the roadside.
These business-minded people really know how to read the market. How could they think of selling handkerchiefs specifically in front of the cinema?
Father Lin and Mother Lin even went to the cinema to watch one.
In the words of Lin's father, this means that he can live a comfortable life and have the leisure to shed tears for others.
But then it was said that life was comfortable, and Lin Yutong discovered a problem.
Because it was unprecedented, the three children asked them for pocket money.
These three children have always had a lot of money. Although the shop has not been rented out yet, the New Year's money alone and the pocket money given by Yin Kun and Lin Yuting are not a small amount.
I didn’t see them spending any money. Where did the money go?
Lin Yutong asked them this.
"Xiao Weiwei went to school and asked us to borrow money." Yusheng said directly without thinking too much.
Ye Sheng and Zhen Sheng turned their heads, as if they particularly looked down on Yu Sheng's unloyalty.
"Why did Xiaowei borrow money?" Lin Yutong asked.
"Ouch! Oh my god. Little Viagra is so old, maybe he can start a small business by himself?" Ye Sheng hugged Lin Yutong's arm, "Don't talk to my uncle and aunt. That's too boring.
Already."
Zhensheng frowned, "We don't have much money. It would be bad if people thought we were here to collect debts."
