Chapter 43: Old Clothes
Li Aihua turned on the TV for Li Sankui to see, and then pulled Tian Shao into the room. The room was small but well planned, with the bed against the left wall, the wardrobe directly opposite, and the desk in front of the window.
Tian Shao thought she was going to whisper to herself, but she didn't expect her to drag out the camphor wood box placed under the bed: "Lingling, this is my old clothes from before, if you don't dislike it, take it back." ”
The clothes on Tian Shao's body have more than a dozen patches, and this is the best clothes in the Tian family. The old clothes that Li Aihua took out were all new and had no patches, Tian Shao was too late to be grateful for such good clothes, but she looked at these clothes and deliberately pretended to be very regretful: "Sister Li, I can't wear these clothes, you better give them to others!" ”
Ever since she was a child, she didn't like to use second-hand goods, and she wouldn't wear them even if they were new and fitting.
Li Aihua smiled and said, "Don't you have four younger sisters?" Take it back and put it on them! ”
Tian Shao didn't shirk anymore, took all the dark-colored clothes inside, and then explained: "My sisters and they all have to work in the field, and the bright-colored clothes are not suitable for them to wear, so you should keep these for your relatives and friends!" ”
Li Aihua stuffed a light blue shirt into her hand, and then dragged her to the next room. The layout of the next room is the same as Li Aihua's, but the area is larger.
Li Aihua also dragged out a box from under the bed, and the clothes in this box were all black, gray, army green, khaki and other dark colors.
Li Aihua said with a smile: "These are my brother's old clothes, and he can't wear them anymore because he is so fast." Lingling, these clothes are dirt-resistant, if you don't dislike my brother wearing them, take them back. ”
Tian Shao didn't refuse again this time, and she was reluctant to refuse, she stuffed back the twenty yuan given by Li's mother to Li Aihua.
Seeing that Li Aihua didn't accept it, she smiled and said, "Sister Li, you can accept it!" I took advantage of the twenty dollars in these clothes and pants. If you accept them, I will not dare to ask for them. ”
Then she added: "Sister Aihua, this money is not for you, it's for your brother." If you take his clothes without her consent, you have to give him some compensation, otherwise it won't be good. ”
Li Aihua said that she couldn't help it, and it was worth having no choice but to accept the money.
The things were not put in the back basket, but were packed in a cloth bag at Li's house. Unfortunately, when I went downstairs, I ran into the old lady Huang.
Without waiting for the old lady to speak, Li Aihua said with a smile: "Aunt Huang, my mother ordered me to give Lingling the old clothes that I can't wear at home." ”
Old Mrs. Huang's face suddenly did not look good. She asked Li's mother for old clothes before, but Li's mother said that she had already sent them to relatives, and now it seems that she is unwilling to give them to her instead of sending them.
Li Aihua didn't care about her, and said to Tian Shao: "Let's go!" ”
When he arrived on the street, Li Aihua looked up and said, "Lingling, it's so sunny, it takes about 20 minutes to walk to the transportation company, or I'll send you there!" ”
Tian Shao said with a smile: "We usually work under the sun, but now it's nothing to just hurry." Sister Aihua, you can't be late for work, otherwise you will be used by people with bad intentions. ”
Hearing this, Li Aihua rode away without hesitation.
When the two sisters and brothers were left, Li Sankui said excitedly: "Sister, that TV is really good-looking." And that electric fan, it's so comfortable to blow on your body. ”
Tian Shao looked at him funny, he didn't move his ass when he said he was going back just now, it was obvious that the TV was too exciting and didn't want to go home: "In the future, we will buy one when we make our own money." ”
Hearing this, the starlight in Li Sankui's eyes instantly dimmed: "This TV must be very expensive, how can we afford it." ”
Tian Shao said with a smile: "We definitely can't afford it now, but as long as you listen to me, I promise that both of us will have TVs within five years." ”
"Really?"
"Nature is true. If you don't believe me, just wait and see, and in a month I will be able to enter the textile factory. ”
She can actually come to the county seat alone this time, and she deliberately brought Sankui not to really ask him to protect herself, nor did she need him to carry things, but to let him see the world. As long as a boy sees the colors outside, he will definitely want to go out.
The uncle was so good to their family, Tian Shao also wanted to bring Li Sankui out. As for the other cousins and cousins, it will be his business when Li Sankui comes out.
Thinking of Tian Shao's performance in the city in the past two days, Li Sankui said: "Cousin, do I believe you? ”
"If you believe me, you will read first, and then you will talk about the rest."
Li Sankui's face suddenly fell, it was so difficult to recognize words!
After walking for about half an hour, the sister and brother finally arrived at the transportation company.
On the walls on both sides of the gate of the transportation company are slogans such as "Labor is the most glorious", "Promote revolution, engage in transportation" and "safety first", and Tian Shao feels that it is quite characteristic of the times.
Just as the two were about to pass, a large truck pulled out of it. Li Sankui shouted excitedly: "Cousin, cousin, look, this is a car, this is a big truck." ”
Tian Shao saw him like this, and decided to wait for the next time he saw Uncle Li, and suggested that Li Sankui should go out more. Otherwise, I will be so excited when I see a big truck, and I will not be laughed at when dealing with people in the future.
The big truck drove by, and Tian Shao ate a mouthful of ash. She ignored the excited Li Sankui, crossed the road and said to the doorman: "Uncle, I'm looking for Tian Jianle, is he in this company today?" ”
After speaking, he handed over a cigarette with both hands.
The doorman felt that this little girl was quite good at coming to trouble, so after taking his cigarette and putting it on the table, he asked, "Who are you, do you have anything to do with Tian Jianle?" ”
Tian Shao said with a smile: "My name is Tian Daya, I am Tian Jianle's sister, and I made an appointment to come to him at noon today the day before yesterday." ”
She deliberately said that she was the younger sister of her own family, because she was worried that the people here would misunderstand. After all, Tian Jianle has no object yet, and a big girl must not arouse suspicion when he comes to the door. As for not reporting her name, first, she is worried that Tian Jianle will not know her name, and secondly, she is worried that someone will misunderstand that she is her sister Tian Lingling.
Tian Jianle has been in the sixth class here, and there must be people who know her sister. I was misunderstood, and I thought that if I touched porcelain, it would not be beautiful. Alas, if it weren't for the fact that the name on the graduation certificate was Tian Lingling, she would have changed her name now.
The doorman nodded and said, "Tian Jianle is coming to work, you wait here, I'll ask someone to call him out." ”
"Thank you, uncle."
A car drove from outside, Li Sankui followed the car with his eyes, and said to Tian Shao after the car drove in and couldn't see him: "Cousin, it would be great if I could learn to drive in the future!" ”
Tian Shao glanced at him and said with a smile: "If you want to learn to drive in five years, I will find someone to teach you then." ”
Li Sankui thought she was joking, and said with a smile: "Cousin, I can write down what you said." ”
"Remember, in five years I'll definitely keep my promise." It was still a little difficult to buy a car five years later, after all, it was not easy to buy a car at that time, but it was a trivial matter for Li Sankui to learn to drive.
