Chapter 70: Comparison

Lin Yao received a call from Ms. Wen on the way home, and Ms. Wen was Lin Yao's mother.

Ms. Wen was concerned: "Yao? It's New Year's Day soon, how many days off do you have in your unit now? Go home? ”

Lin Yao then remembered that she hadn't been home for almost half a year, but she had already made an appointment with Jiang Mingshu to participate in the New Year's Eve carnival together, what should she do?

Lin Yao replied: "Take it for three days, now this company is very formal, and the state stipulates that you can take a holiday as much as you want......"

Before she finished speaking, she heard Ms. Wen anxiously ask on the other end of the phone, "Then are you coming back?" ”

Lin Yao suddenly felt very self-blaming, "A classmate just asked me to participate in an event, so I won't go back on New Year's Day, and I'll come back after the New Year." ”

Ms. Wen let out a long sigh, and then she asked, "How about I go to you?" ”

Lin Yao was surprised, "Didn't you say that you were the busiest in the past year and couldn't leave?" ”

"Busy with what?" Ms. Wen said disapprerovingly: "You have been away from home for a long time, and you don't know that I will be busy before the Spring Festival, and I am idle and panicked during this time on New Year's Day." ”

Lin Yao's hometown is rural, but she has never been diligent, the legend says that she is not diligent and the grains are not divided, of course, this is also the reason why Ms. Wen intends to pamper her.

Besides, she went out to study when she was a teenager, and she has been away from home for six or seven years, so she really can't figure out the situation in her hometown.

Mom came to see her...... That's good, but there's a problem.

Lin Yao was puzzled: "Mom, as I told you, the place where I live now is shared with others, and now their parents are also here." ”

Unexpectedly, Ms. Wen snorted a few times in dissatisfaction, "What? Both parents can go together, but I can't go alone? ”

Lin Yao hurriedly explained: "What do I mean, I mean, the house is small and there are many people, I'm afraid you won't be comfortable living." ”

Ms. Wen smiled and asked rhetorically, "The four of them are not uncomfortable living in one room, how can our mother and daughter be uncomfortable living in one room?" ”

Lin Yao thought about it, it made sense.

The point is, listening to her mother's tone, she has planned it a long time ago.

She asked tentatively, "So, will you buy a ticket?" ”

Ms. Wen was proud, "Don't underestimate your mother, to tell you the truth, I have already bought a ticket, and at 6:50 a.m. on January 1, I will take the morning bus." I asked the conductor to get to Hangzhou Station around 9:00, but I won't take the bus in Hangzhou. ”

Lin Yao held her forehead and complained: "Mom, you have bought all the tickets, why do you still ask me if I will go back on New Year's Day?" ”

Ms. Wen defended loudly: "There are so many people going to Hangzhou on New Year's Day, I must buy tickets in advance, and besides, didn't I call you for advice?" If you have time to come back, I'll go and refund the ticket, it's completely in time. ”

"Okay, okay, whatever you say makes sense anyway!"

Lin Yao's personality follows Lao Lin, and like Lao Lin, there is no way to take Ms. Wen.

Lin Yao estimated that she would go home after attending the New Year's Eve party on Friday night, sleep until 8:00 in the morning, get up at 8:00 in the morning, take a taxi to the station, and pick up Ms. Wen at 9:00, and there seemed to be no problem, so she agreed to come down.

Of course, she didn't have any other options.

Ms. Wen is almost 50 years old this year, and because she was very individual when she was a child, she did not like to study, so she dropped out of school before finishing the first grade of primary school.

Now, not to mention that she doesn't know a lot of words, just with her self-taught Mandarin, she can't even ask someone to ask for directions when she arrives in Hangzhou!

Whether she was asked to take a taxi or let her take the bus by herself, it was impossible, and Lin Yao could only go to the station to pick it up.

"I'll pick you up at the station!"

Ms. Wen on the other end of the phone heard her agree, and immediately rejoiced, "Then it's decided, by the way, is Hangzhou cold now?" How many clothes do I have to bring? ”

Lin Yao was a little distracted, she found that she still knew too little about her mother, every time before the holiday, her mother would call her to ask if she would go back to her hometown, Lin Yao used to answer: "Go back." ”

It turned out that Ms. Wen didn't really want to hear her answer the word "back", but wanted to play in Hangzhou.

She, who is an intimate little padded jacket, has never thought of this layer, which is really not intimate enough.

Lin Yao replied: "Hangzhou is very close, just two hours by car, and the temperature is no different from home." ”

"Oh......" Ms. Wen breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, I'll bring the few new clothes I bought and change them when the time comes." Hey, let me tell you, Juanjuan's mother went to Shenzhen to play for a few days, and when she came back, she was scared, so I thought that I would also live in Hangzhou for a few days, so as not to be looked down upon. ”

Lin Yao was shocked by her divine logic, "So you didn't come to Hangzhou to see me, but to compare with others?" ”

Ms. Wen flatly denied it, "How can I be, of course I went to see you, and by the way, let them know that I have been to Hangzhou." ”

Lin Yao was curious: "Who are they?" ”

Also, is it possible that for Ms. Wen, going to Hangzhou to play is a very lofty thing?

"Juanjuan's mother went to Shenzhen last month, Yingying's mother went to Beijing last year, and Peng Peng's mother made an appointment to go to Hong Kong on New Year's Day...... However, none of them had ever been to Hangzhou, and I at least arrived in Hangzhou before them. ”

Lin Yao was speechless, today's rural aunts are actually better than these?

Besides, people take planes to Beijing, Shenzhen, Hong Kong...... Ms. Wen took the bus to Hangzhou, is she embarrassed to compare it with others?

Could it be that Ms. Wen is hinting at something?

For example, should I take her on a trip or something?

Lin Yao fell into deep thought, it's not that she doesn't want to take Ms. Wen on a trip, but no, first of all, she has to go to work, it is impossible to take her around to play, and secondly, she has no money to take Ms. Wen around.

Lin Yao has not asked her parents for money since graduating from college, in her opinion, her parents' money is her parents', and the money she earns is her own, and she has no intention of taking her parents' money to play.

Lin Yao's family is not short of money, but the little money in the countryside is not enough to get it to the city.

Ms. Wen neither speaks Mandarin nor can read, so she has no one to accompany her, so she naturally can't go to an unfamiliar city, so she can only choose Hangzhou.

Lin Yao probably understood what was going on, and she replied, "I know." ”

On the other end of the phone, Ms. Wen, who was already ready to go to the big city of Hangzhou, said in a good mood: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring you a lot of delicious food." ”

******

After Lin Yao went home, she talked to Li Shulan about it, and explained at the end: "My mother has never been to Hangzhou, she has always wanted to come and see, worried that I would not agree, so she bought the ticket first without saying hello." I would be very unhappy if I asked her to refund the ticket now, so I had to let her come and see it, and please bear with me then. ”

Li Shulan couldn't disagree, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, my parents have already bought tickets and will go back to their hometown early Saturday morning." If your mom comes, we'll be able to have a few more days. ”

When Lin Yao heard her say the word "lively", she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't refute it.

Ms. Wen's visit to Hangzhou on New Year's Day was settled.
