Huo Yaowen looked in the direction pointed by his sister, and saw a thick layer of newspapers stacked under an old-fashioned fan, so he didn't rush to flip through it, but walked to his parents' room and took out a change of clothes from a large square wardrobe. It's too hot this day, and I've been running outside in the morning, not only sweating a lot, but also sticky, so I simply took a set of clothes and a stainless steel basin to the public toilet on the floor to take a shower.

When he was first reborn, he had to go to the public toilet on the floor to take a bath, Huo Yaowen was very painful in his heart, after all, taking a bath in the public toilet, the pungent smell inside was just that, and the most irritating thing was that someone ran in to go to the toilet from time to time.

Although there is a rag specially designed to isolate the gap between bathing and going to the toilet, the distance between the two is too close to each other, and it is inevitable that it will be embarrassing and disgusting. One night, when Huo Yaowen was taking a bath, someone came to the toilet and listened to the person's "uh-huh, ah-ha" excretion, almost giving Huo Yaowen nausea to death.

So Huo Yaowen made up his mind, as long as he got the money, he would change the house as soon as possible!

There are too many inconveniences in living in public housing, not only to queue up for toilets, baths, but also sometimes for cooking, after all, there are only a few public vegetable washing pools, and if they all rush together, it will definitely waste a lot of time.

No, just thinking about taking a bath, I walked into the public toilet and found that there were already three people rinsing inside.

Several men who were taking a bath inside heard the movement and turned their heads to look over, and Uncle Quan, who lived next door to Huo Yaowen, opened his mouth and smiled: "Yaowen, you are also here to take a bath!"

"Hmm. Huo Yaowen's scalp was numb, and when he ordered this meal, there were people rushing to take a bath.

Uncle Quan said enthusiastically: "Then Yaowen, you come and squeeze with us to wash." ”

"Forget Uncle Quan, you guys wash it first. Huo Yaowen suddenly lost interest, this public toilet is actually not very big, except for three squatting pits, there is only about fifty feet (ten feet is equal to one square meter) of space for people to bathe, there are only two faucets, three people washing is already very crowded, and one of them even stood directly on the squatting pit.

How does this make Huo Yaowen wash?

No, Huo Yaowen could only go back with his clothes and basin, thinking that he would wash after eating, it happened that he was prone to sweat when he ate hot on this day, took a shower and took a nap, and got up in the afternoon to screen the newspaper one by one.

When she came to the door of her home, Li Yiping, who was cooking, was surprised when she saw her boy come back so quickly: "Why didn't you take a bath?"

"There are too many people, Uncle Quan is washing. Huo Yaowen said helplessly, there is always too much inconvenience when he is reborn, he thought that it was already a trouble to have no computer, but now it seems that it is very troublesome to even take a bath.

Luckily, it was summer when I came, and if it was winter, I wouldn't have to freeze to death if I wanted to take a bath. However, the winter in Hong Kong does not seem to be very cold.

"Public housing is like this, bear with it. Although she has lived in public housing for almost ten years, Li Yiping is already familiar with the environment here, but she still hopes that her own boy will be more comfortable, and she can't help but comfort: "Your old bean has applied for the housing rights of the next batch of new public housing, I have seen it with your old bean, not only each house has at least 500 square feet, but also has a separate bathroom, kitchen and living room, but the bedroom is a little smaller, but it is much better than now." ”

"New public housing?" Huo Yaowen was stunned for a moment, and then found relevant information in his memory, it turned out that after graduating this year, he didn't need to pay tuition fees, and the family's economy became rich every month, Huo's father, Huo's mother and grandma discussed it, and decided to apply for housing rights from the new batch of built Tsz Wan Housing Estate, and pay an extra 200 mosquitoes every month for a new set of public housing to live in.

In fact, the conditions in Huo Yaowen's family are not as bad as imagined, after all, Huo's father runs a Chengcai bookstore and cooperates with several middle schools, so there must be profits and a lot of money, but there are two children studying at home, especially after Huo Yaowen went to college, the expenses were much higher, so he never changed to a new house.

Huo Yaowen recalled this, and was sad for a while, and it was really his parents who were suffering, so he couldn't help patting his chest and said: "Mother, I don't need public housing, I will buy a thousand-foot mansion this year, and then our whole family will move in together!"

When Huo's mother Li Yiping heard this, she covered her mouth and smiled happily, and said, "Okay, then my mother is counting on me to buy a thousand-foot mansion." ”

Looking at Huo's mother's appearance, he knew that he was a little disbelieving, thinking that he was blowing water, Huo Yaowen could only sigh helplessly in his heart, if it wasn't for the month of rebirth, he was sorting out the memories of the original owner at first, and later for the dream of the original owner and his parents, he was busy applying for a teacher at the University of Hong Kong, he would have found a way to make money, and he would not have waited for a month.

...

A few minutes later, Huo's father, Huo Chengcai, hurried back from outside, and was overjoyed to hear that his son had successfully applied for a teacher at the University of Hong Kong, and said again and again: "My son is like me, he has a promising future, and he has become a talent!"

These words only made Grandma glare at him fiercely, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "If Ah Wen is like you, it will be useless, I don't study well when I study, I know all day long that I go out to the streets with people, saying that it is for the country, and what is the point of swimming until now!"

Huo Chengcai also smiled wryly when he heard his mother's words.

Back then, Huo's father went out to march behind his classmates, on the one hand, everyone did this, and on the other hand, he could skip class openly. In the later period, towards the end of the Anti-Japanese War, the civil war began again.

In order to avoid some troubles, Huo's father could only take the family to Hong Kong, thinking of making a name for himself, but the ink in his stomach was pitiful, and he lost a lot of money in business, and in the end, he could only use the only remaining property of his ancestors to open a bookstore and barely support the whole family.

has been in Hong Kong for almost ten years, and Huo Chengcai has not made a name for himself, the only thing worth showing off is that he gave birth to a smart and beautiful boy.

"Okay, Mom. Li Yiping couldn't bear her husband being said this by her mother-in-law, so she couldn't help but comfort her.

Huo Yaowen next to him also put a piece of meat in Grandma's bowl, and said with a smile: "Grandma eats vegetables." ”

"Yes, Grandma, this braised pork is delicious. Huo Tingting also followed.

"Okay, good boy and good girl eat and eat. Grandma listened to her grandchildren's words, and she also smiled and began to eat.

"Eat and eat. ”

Seeing that no one cared about him, Huo's father smiled innocently, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate them.

Halfway through the meal, Huo Tingting stared at Huo Yaowen's glasses and said, "Brother, your glasses are new? Look at them, I haven't seen this style." ”

Huo Yaowen subconsciously raised his gold-rimmed glasses, nodded and said with a smile: "Well, the new one, the old one has a bit of a low degree." ”

In fact, after Huo Yaowen was reborn, he found that the original owner was originally highly myopic of more than 500 degrees, and for some reason it was inexplicably wonderful, the pair of glasses he is wearing now has no degree, and the style was also designed by him and asked the people in the optical store to help beat it out with copper little by little, and then applied a layer of gold dye on the outside.

As for why he still wears glasses if he is not short-sighted, first, Huo Yaowen was also short-sighted in his previous life and is used to wearing glasses. At the same time, I am about to go to the University of Hong Kong to teach, and the former teachers and directors know that they are highly myopic people, and their families also know that they dare not wear it, once or twice, it is okay, and after a long time, it is inevitable that some people will be curious to ask.

After all, there is no technology to laser cut the cornea to restore vision in this era, so in order to avoid being asked, it is good to wear glasses without prescription. And Huo Yaowen looks a little tender if he doesn't wear glasses, he is about to become a teacher, so he naturally has to dress up more maturely, and he can't give those students a feeling that they are too young and incompetent.

Of course, these are only one of the reasons, the most important reason is that Huo Yaowen is very suitable for wearing glasses. Wearing glasses, especially this pair of new glasses that he specially ordered from an optical store according to the style he wore in later generations, people will have the feeling that this is a reader when they see him Huo Yaowen for the first time.

Because the bookstore didn't invite anyone, after lunch, Huo's father hurriedly returned to the bookstore and reopened.

Huo's mother and others will also go to the bookstore to help, there are many students who have come to buy textbooks recently, sometimes there are too many people and too many people, Huo's father is too busy to be alone, so he needs her help to keep an eye on it, don't be sneaked away by some students A book or two.

After Huo's mother also went to the bookstore to help, Grandma cleaned up the small house, sewing a new embroidered handkerchief with a needle and thread, which was a job given by the tailor shop on the street in front.

Because Grandma had studied when she was young and was taught embroidery by her family, she would often embroider a little knitwear and sell it to people in the tailor shop to earn a little money to supplement the family.

The younger sister Huo Tingting ran out to play with her classmates after eating, this is a rare holiday, so she naturally wants to go out for a good time.

As for Huo Yaowen, he took the newspaper and newspaper information collected by Ming Tsai with his help, and studied which newspaper had higher sales and manuscript fees.

That's right, the first pot of gold Huo Yaowen thought of, and the way to quickly get money, was to write novels or write some articles for some newspapers. After all, he was also a professional screenwriter in his last life, and he also wrote a few completed street novels, and his writing is a bit of a bit, but he won't mention the creativity.

However, in Hong Kong in 1968, there are more novels and articles that can be written.
