Chapter 42 God rewards the meal
Li Aihua went to the state-run restaurant and ordered two meat dishes, one was braised pork and the other was Kung Pao chicken. Pushing open the door and coming in, she saw Accountant Chen, who was serious before, talking to Tian Shao kindly.
Li Aihua was amazed, she only went out for half an hour why Aunt Chen's attitude changed drastically. She took the two dishes to the kitchen, and asked Mother Li softly, "Mom, is Lingling doing well?"
Mother Li said with a smile: "I thought what you said was Lingling's boasting, but now I realize that what she said is considered modest."
"What?"
Li's mother said: "Lingling is not only a fast learner, but also draws inferences from one instance to another. And she doesn't boast, she is really good at mental arithmetic. Your Auntie Chen reported the data and she gave the result. This child is an accountant. "
Li Aihua raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Mom, do you think I'm right? Lingling is indeed outstanding."
People who are not excellent can get a junior high school diploma by self-studying at home! Such a person Li Aihua thinks it is worth helping.
Mother Li smiled and said: "You didn't miss it this time. This child is not only smart but also has a sense of proportion. You can have a deep friendship with her."
The main reason is that she sees Tian Shao with clear eyes, and her words and deeds are also very decent, which makes Mother Li very satisfied.
It was rare for her mother to recognize her valued friend. Li Aihua hugged Li mother's arm and smiled coquettishly: "Mom, Lingling's family is not doing well. Later, you can tell Aunt Chen to charge less money."
Mother Li poked her on the forehead and said: "It's not like you can bargain when you buy something. Your Aunt Chen can talk as much as you want. If I say it, I will lose face to her. Don't worry, your Aunt Chen likes her. I won't ask for more money."
Li Aihua thought about Accountant Chen's expression just now, nodded and said, "Mom, can't I wear my old clothes? I want to give them to Lingling. Do you think it's okay?"
Mother Li is not a stingy person, she laughed and scolded: "You are not as tall as Lingling, and she can't wear the clothes you gave me!"
Tian’s family can grow so tall even if they lack clothes and food. It feels a bit wasteful for my daughter to eat all these years.
"She has four younger sisters. If she can't wear them, she can wear them for her younger sisters!"
Mother Li said helplessly, "You can decide your clothes yourself."
Seeing Accountant Chen put away the pen and paper, Mother Li went out and said with a smile, "Sister Chen, I've prepared this dish, you can eat some more."
Accountant Chen politely refused, and then said to Tian Shao: "Lingling, I live in the second family building of the garment factory. You come at nine o'clock tomorrow, and you can just report my name when you arrive."
"good."
Mother Li held her back and said, "Sister Chen, don't go, it won't be too late to eat and go back."
Seeing her refusal, Li's mother didn't persuade her to send her out. Seeing Tian Shao following her, she stopped her: "It's fine if I have to see you off. You definitely don't have enough lunch, so go and eat some more with Aihua."
Tian Shao saw that the two had something to say, so he didn't go to send it off.
Accountant Chen didn’t say that he didn’t need money, after all, it took time and effort. Of course, the most important thing is that her family's finances are quite tight now: "Just thirty! I don't think her family is rich in clothes, so I will give the money after she starts working."
Mother Li smiled and said, "Sister Chen, are you so sure that she will be admitted by the textile factory?"
Accountant Chen said: "This kid belongs to God's rewarding food. I don't dare to say that I will be the first one after learning from me for a month. It is definitely no problem to be in the top three. This time the textile factory has made such a big momentum, it should not be decided."
The subtext of these words is that Tian Shao will definitely be admitted to the textile factory. Of course, even if you are not admitted, you can also take the exam from other factories. As long as there is real ability, there will always be a leader with insight and talent
Mother Li was in a good mood when she heard this. Tian Lingling was not a person to be fooled at first sight, she was about to enter the factory, and it would not be so easy for those thoughtful people in the factory to plot against their daughter.
When she got home, she saw her daughter and Tian Shao were waiting for her to eat. Mother Li was very happy. She went to the kitchen to get a bowl for Sankui to pick out some dishes before sitting down to eat.
Tian Shao felt that Li's mother was really meticulous. And Li's mother saw that Tian Shao ate carefully and ate very well, and felt that this education was really good, and she didn't know how her parents raised her.
They had just finished their meal, before putting down the bowls and chopsticks, San Kui came back with a basket. When you sit down and see the dishes in the bowl, you don't have time to worry about other things and get down to work.
Mother Li saw that in addition to two cans of honey, there was actually a piece of bacon and two pieces of smoked rabbit meat, and the smile on her face deepened. It's not that she is greedy for these things, but she thinks that Tian Shao is someone who can do something.
She put the bacon back into the basket, and said to Tian Shao, "I bought this honey and two pieces of smoked rabbit meat. As for this piece of bacon, you can 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, we can go to the state-run restaurant to buy it. You gave us the bacon. If you want to eat meat, you have to wait until the New Year."
She heard that in the countryside, meat can only be eaten by slaughtering pigs in the Chinese New Year team, and she was reluctant to buy meat tickets on weekdays.
Tian Shao nodded and said: "Auntie, I gave these things to you for food, no money is required. Sister Li has helped me so much, and I have nothing else but some mountain products."
How could Li's mother ask for Tian Shao's things for nothing? In addition to giving Tian Shao 20 yuan, she also gave her a few industrial coupons. Seeing that Tian Shao didn't accept it, she said: "If you don't want it, I don't want it either, so you can take it back!"
Except for the youngest son, their family has wages and coupons, so some industrial coupons cannot be used up. Because the industrial coupons also have a date limit, she gave them away when she didn't need them.
Tian Shao had no choice but to accept it.
Mother Li has a good impression of Tian Shao, and is willing to help: "Lingling, have you found a place to live? If not, I'll help you find out."
Tian Shao quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, I have already entrusted my elder brother to help. Make an appointment with him, and go to him when the matter here is done."
Mother Li felt that she was quite considerate in handling things, 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 catties of food from the family and sent it to his good friend, resulting in his eldest daughter starving to death. After the incident, accountant Chen divorced the man regardless of everyone's persuasion. The two sons belonged to the man, and she took the youngest daughter alone.
The youngest daughter, Chen Yushuang, married at the age of eighteen. The man is a truck driver for a transportation company. The husband and wife are affectionate. Accountant Chen felt relieved seeing his daughter living a happy life. Unexpectedly, at this time, his son-in-law got out of the car and disappeared. The man's parents hid the two children with relatives in order to keep the job and pension for themselves. For the sake of the two children, Chen Yushuang compromised. What made people angry was that when the two children were sent back, the youngest daughter, Xiaohe, had a high fever. It turned out that the children of relatives pushed Xiaohe into the pond, and no one cared about the cold and fever in the twelfth lunar month. It was also because of the delay in treatment that Xiaohe fell to the root of the disease, and then 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 from her. Accountant Chen asked for 500 yuan. Then accountant Chen gave the job to someone else for 800 yuan, and then took the money to take his granddaughter to the provincial capital for medical treatment. After being treated in the provincial capital for half a year, Xiao He's health gradually improved, but the second son's family completely separated from her. As for the eldest son, because of the divorce, he has resentment and has not communicated with him.
Tian Shao was in awe. She heard too much about sacrificing her daughter for her son, and there are very few people like Accountant Chen.
