Chapter 17: Moving is a hassle
It's really hot today.
Yang Moumou rushed home like a dog, with his tongue drooping. Fortunately, her house is on the second floor, and if it is the top floor, it will be miserable. One of their classmates lives on the top floor, and they have been suffering from heat stroke for the past few days, and the hot air from their nostrils and mouth can scorch people!
She climbed the stairs and knocked on the door, "Mom and Dad, open the door!" I'm almost a lamb kebab! "Telling bad jokes is not a mother's patent.
The door opened. Yang Moumou rushed in with his head bored, "Today I want to drink a scoop of cold water!" It's too hot! ”
A hand stopped her.
Yang Moumou raised his head and was surprised, "Who are you?" Why are you in my house? She retreated to the door to make sure that this was the second floor, and that was right. But what's wrong with the furnishings in the house?
"Your family is no longer here, you have moved." The people in the house said.
Why did you move again? Yang Moumou stomped his feet at the door. Move at every turn, ants move!
Yang Moumou and his father came here for the first time and lived in the office next to the classroom.
This town-level primary school has two buildings, a teaching building in front and a teacher's dormitory in the back, both of which have four floors. Between the two buildings, there is a row of detached bungalows, which are reserved for older or outstanding teachers.
According to the school's arrangement, the father and daughter walked into the building in front of them, and climbed one staircase to the fourth floor. Yang Moumou's legs were sore and swollen and she didn't feel hard, she followed behind her father, with big bulging eyes.
The office was empty, with a long chair with a backrest facing the door and against the wall, and a few wooden stools of varying heights, just big enough for a butt, and nothing else.
Yang Moumou chuckled in his heart, where to sleep at night?
Without waiting for her to ask, her father said, "Yang'er, it's so nice here, the light is bright and the vision is wide. Standing here overlooking the whole school! Dad took Yang Moumou's hand and put a bench for Yang Moumou to stand on.
Mom! It's so high! Yang Moumou was scared and excited. The people walking downstairs looked so small, and Yang Moumou felt like a giant.
No matter how excited you are, sleeping is a real problem. But this is not difficult for Dad, he let Yang Moumou sleep on the bench, which is more than enough for Yang Moumou, a child. As for himself, he put together several wooden stools from low to high, sleeping on the side where his head was high and the side where his feet were resting low. In order to prevent his daughter from falling off the stool while she was asleep, he placed his "bed" next to the bench and blocked the spot for his daughter.
Father and daughter lived in this office for months.
The children in Yang's class, who are also the children of teachers, joked with her, "Yang, are you also a teacher?" Why else would you live in an office? "Yes, we all live in a dormitory!" "I'm living in a bungalow!"
They looked at Yang Moumou from head to toe, crumpled plaid cloth clothes, gray pants, trouser legs were too short, and the legs and stomachs were exposed, what a local girl!
Yang Moumou didn't know that others were laughing at her, she laughed, "Really? I can be a teacher at such a young age? Actually, I want to be a teacher when I grow up! ”
Those children saw that she was nervous and unusual, and they didn't bother to talk to her anymore.
Unexpectedly, she warmly invited others to her "home" several times. When people didn't go, she said, "Come on, I've prepared something delicious!" While talking, he pulled with his hands, used his hands and feet, and coaxed people to her "home".
In the "home", several wooden stools are neatly placed in front of the benches, and on each stool, there are a bunch of fried peanuts and broad beans. These are what she saves every day.
When the children saw that they had something to eat, they happily sat down. Yang Moumou sat on the bench and chatted and played games with everyone like a leader. She also put a stool by the window and invited everyone to climb high and look into the distance!
When he moved a few months later, Yang Moumou didn't leave, pulled the door of the office, and called like a pig, "I'm not leaving!" I'm not going! "It's her territory!
But when she walked into her new home and looked at the rooms from room to room, she quickly fell in love with them.
It's nice to have a separate place for each room, a living room for eating, a bedroom for sleeping, a kitchen for cooking, and a toilet.
When I used to live in the office, I had to run four floors to go to the public toilet dozens of meters downstairs. I finally ran to the toilet, which was often overcrowded. Yang Moumou held his buttocks and squatted outside the toilet and didn't dare to move, for fear that he would accidentally pull it out.
Well, now the toilet is in the house!
Yang Moumou ran back and forth in several rooms, happy as a piglet.
She soon discovered that one room was locked, and she also found tables and benches in the living room and pots and pans in the kitchen.
Their things are still piled up at the door, and they haven't had time to move them in!
Mom and Dad were busy moving things inside. Mom came over too. Yang Moumou, whose parents are by his side, has doubled his harvest - he can get double shares after being scolded and beaten.
Yang Moumou said, "Mom and Dad, are these things given to us by the school?" So good for us! ”
Mom glared, "If you look ugly, you want to be beautiful." That's someone else's. ”
What? Yang Moumou grabbed his mother's hand, "We live in someone else's house?" How does this work? ”
Mom shook off Yang Moumou's hand, "The school house is not enough, everyone shares a set with others." It's nice to have it. ”
Well, this house is really much stronger than the office. However, there are also a lot of inconveniences.
Although the toilet is close, the waiting time is not shorter than before. The aunt who lived with them was a toilet bully, and once she entered the toilet, she had to wait more than half an hour to come out. As a result, Yang's family had to go downstairs to queue up in a public toilet dozens of meters away.
Eating is also an annoyance. Originally, the living room and kitchen should have been divided equally, but the aunt occupied almost the entire living room, leaving only a passage for people to pass. Yang's family had to eat in the bedroom. It's amazing that the house is always filled with the smell of food, usually dried pickles, kimchi chunks.
The living room also smells of food, which is very different from the smell of Yang's bedroom, and always smells of meat.
One day at noon, Yang Moumou came home from school, and before she entered the house, she smelled the rich chicken soup, she was so happy that she knocked on the door and trembled.
Mom came to open the door and told her to wash her hands and eat. She nodded again and again, washed her hands quickly, and sat upright at her table, eager to pick up her chopsticks. Eat chicken today!
A plate of greens is served on the table. Mom and Dad also sat down, picked up chopsticks and started eating.
Yang put down his chopsticks.
There was the sound of footsteps from the outhouse bedroom, and the smell of chicken soup.
It turned out that it was the aunt next door who ate the chicken.
Yang Moumou sniffed vigorously and couldn't help but say, "Mom, the chicken soup stewed at noon next door today is so fragrant!" She couldn't help but stand up and lean against the door to sniff.
"If you don't want to be beaten, shut up! Hurry up and eat! Mom's eyebrows furrowed.
It's green cabbage and rice again...... Yang Moumou has a flat mouth. She had no strength to take two bites, and fell asleep on the table, and she dreamed of a table full of big fish and meat.
The toilet is inconvenient and bearable, anyway, I have long been used to it. Smelling all kinds of meat but only eating meals that are difficult to swallow is too uncomfortable for Yang Moumou.
Thankfully, a few months later, they moved again, and now they are home. This time they stayed in a separate suite. This house is good for everything, but in the bamboo forest opposite the toilet, there are two graves. As a result, Yang Moumou had to run downstairs and go to the public toilet outside.
My parents were very satisfied, saying that they no longer had to squeeze with others. Especially my father, who said that his colleague was too friendly and took the initiative to give up the house.
Yang Moumou glanced at the grave behind him, and his body shivered again.
After this move, my father and mother had a very comfortable life. Especially my mother, I am more handy when I beat Yang Moumou. In the past, it was hindered by outsiders, and it was more or less a control point. Now, let's do it behind closed doors.
Yang Moumou began to miss the various meat smells wafting from next door before. She even misses the office she lived in when she first arrived. What to move? One time is not as good as one time.
Now, why did you move again? What kind of room will you move to? Yang Moumou ran away.
The man in the room shouted, "Ah! Kid, do you know where your family has moved to? ”
Yang Moumou ran into the sun, and then remembered a serious question: Where did their family move to?
She found herself standing in front of the row of detached bungalows. Live here? Whimsical!
Mother's voice was close to my ears, "Yang Moumou, why are you stupid?" Come in! ”
Yang Moumou smelled a burst of meat.
This time it's definitely her family!
