When Heizi heard this, he also followed the momentum, and was so excited that he picked up the old lady directly and turned around, "Mother, dear mother, why did you take out this baby, our family is developed now, haha, this time I can give you a thorough look at the disease, it's great......"
"Wait, Brother Bing, are you right? Do you want to get any more treasure appreciation activities for the experts to see? Kuroko asked questions as soon as he got excited.
The old lady was completely dizzy by him, and hurriedly sat down on the bed, and scolded, "You bastard, you want your mother's life, alas, if your father hadn't died early and your mother was sick and didn't have a job, this bracelet was going to be passed on to your daughter-in-law...... Alas......"
The old lady raised her hand to wipe her tears as she spoke.
Heizi hurriedly ran over and hugged his mother to comfort him, "Okay, mother, don't cry, I have the money to learn to drive, and you should buy medicine for all the money you usually earn?" In fact, there is a lot left, how much can you spend on that medicine, although the laborers are a little dirty and tired, they still make a lot of money, I don't believe you ask Brother Bing! ”
Tang Lin knew that Kuroko would definitely not sell his mother's dowry for money, and when the old lady took out the bracelet tremblingly, he knew the result.
So hurry up and end it, "Hehe, indeed, Kuroko has his own private money, you don't even know it, auntie, right?" Kuroko is shrewd, in fact, he talked to me some time ago about learning to drive, and I was delayed because I was busy. It just so happens that the captain of our team knows the principal of Hongxiang Driving School, and the tuition fee can be discounted by 20% and guaranteed to pass, so don't worry about it, leave it to me, don't worry? ”
The old lady looked up at Tang Lin with a serious face with teary eyes, gritted her teeth and handed the box and jade bracelet to Tang Lin, "I don't understand the outside, I don't know a word, my family was poor when I was a child." If it weren't for the last resort, I would be reluctant to sell the things that my ancestors had handed down, but now that society has no money, I can't go anywhere. You take this jade bracelet and box to help me find someone to see, see how much it can be worth, I have a good bottom in my heart, I don't know when I fall asleep when I'm sick, I can't wake up, this thing will give sunspots early peace of mind. If this thing is really valuable, then if you don't want to look at people's faces in the yamen, come back, and the eldest lady will pay you for it, and you will take the sunspot to do some business together......"
Tang Lin didn't feel that his eyes were a little hot, and he couldn't help blinking quickly, he had only known the old lady for a month, but the old lady treated him like her own son, giving him delicious food first, and calling Heizi to do it, resolutely not charging him rent, and trusting him in every way. Now he even said that he would take out the money to buy the heirloom and give him a business.
Of course, the old lady also had the intention of letting him take the sunspot, but she hoped that Tang Lin, who was also from a poor background, could also get ahead.
Tang Lin barely showed a smile, then turned around and lowered his head, he had never believed in tears, but now he was a little uncontrollable. The old lady held the head of the bed with her hand, "Lin Zi, you have a lot of things in your heart that others don't know and a lot of sufferings that others don't know, I can see that you must have suffered a great grievance in the army, otherwise you shouldn't come back after graduating from college at your age...... But everyone has their own fate, Lin Zi, you and the eldest lady and the sunspot will be a family that depends on each other in the future, as long as you don't dislike me, the sick old lady, and the burden of the sunspot......"
Tang Lin couldn't help but turn around and grabbed the old lady's shriveled hands, "Auntie, don't say it, this bracelet will be passed down from generation to generation, and if you sell it for money, it won't be called an heirloom." I'll tell you, Kuroko, don't worry, I'll make him get ahead. You don't have to worry about me, you don't know how good I am in the city government. You've always heard of the old Guo family in Zhongzhou, right? The day after tomorrow, I went to dinner with the people of Lao Guo's family, they invited me, and the chief also valued me very much, and called me for everything...... Auntie, don't worry, now I want to think that Kuroko doesn't smoke or drink so much, and there are not many children who know that they go out early and return late to work hard, Auntie, you gave birth to a good child......"
The old lady was also very excited, and tears fell down, "Lin Zi...... Don't be polite to the eldest mother, the eldest mother's disease is not good, if it weren't for the fact that the sunspot hadn't grown up and hadn't married a daughter-in-law, I really wanted to go directly to the river and die, and if I died, I could reunite with the sunspot and his father over there, and the dead sunspot wouldn't have to work so hard alone. You can't fool me, the little money Kuroko earned bought medicine, and Lin Zi, you have been using money to supplement him...... Listen to the eldest lady, you take it first to find someone to see, we have a number in our hearts, and then what to do, let's talk about it then, okay? ”
Tang Lin has no way to refuse, the old lady is usually soft-spoken but very stubborn at critical moments, she is poor and poor in her life, her husband died early, but she also has backbone, the same strong and refuses to admit defeat. Her illness is a chronic disease, even if the family has a lot of money, it is not easy to treat, and now she can only take some painkillers or something to control it, but fortunately, the effect is good, and the old lady's health has been getting better and better day by day since Tang Lin moved in.
That's why the old lady kept calling him a nobleman in their family.
Tang Lin cautiously took the box and glanced at the sunspot next to him, "Heizi, this is your family's heirloom, it's quite valuable, can you trust Brother Bing?" ”
When Kuroko heard this, he immediately reluctant, "Brother Bing, what are you talking about?" It's Brother Bing, it's nothing if you run away with this bracelet, that's Brother Bing, you must have a problem, otherwise you wouldn't have done that! Besides, Brother Bing, if you are such a person, then there will be no good people in this world, don't think I'm small, I've been working outside for more than 4 years, who hasn't seen anyone? ”
"If you want to say that my mother has a vision, it is much more reassuring for me to give it to you, brother Bing, for you to appraise. It's not that I sell it if I take it, but I like to lose things since I was a child, and I always fall on my head, you say that if I lose or break such a valuable thing, it won't be in vain? ”
Tang Lin smiled warmly, raised his hand and patted Kuroko's thin shoulder, "Well, tomorrow you will go to Hongxiang Driving School to find Principal Wang, as soon as you say your name, he will arrange a qiē for you, and our captain has already called him today." Powerful people are much better than us! ”
Heizi was excited, he did the labor because there was really no other way, no education and no skills, only the strength of a young body, in fact, after Tang Lin mentioned it to him last time, he couldn't sleep every night when he came back from work, and he thought about it over and over again. The more I think about it, the more I feel that Tang Lin's construction is right, he can't be a laborer for a lifetime, but his idea is slightly different from Tang Lin, Tang Lin means to let him drive a car in the future, but he knows how many pounds he has, and he thinks that it would be good to be able to drive an excavator and a bulldozer in the future.
Of course, he didn't talk to Tang Lin about the tuition fee in front of his mother, he didn't even have 100 yuan in his pocket, and he wouldn't even eat lunch if he didn't start work. But this matter is related to his future, and he feels that it is better to owe Brother Bing a favor than to owe others, if he asks his mother to be cheeky and go to relatives to borrow some, but because of thousands of yuan, let his mother go to the bottom and endure the white face of those relatives to death, he will not do it.
Since his father died in a car accident, his relatives immediately hid away when they saw them, for fear of getting bad luck and afraid that they would open their mouths to borrow money! Go and think about it.
