Chapter Forty-Nine: The Tube Tower
When he came to the family building of the garment factory, Li Sankui was dumbfounded: "Sister, how is this, how is this different from the building of Director Li's house?" ”
This family building has four floors, and downstairs is densely packed with clothes poles, there is no ground to walk, and there are many poles and wires upstairs. Standing underneath, they were worried that the pole would fall and hit people.
Tian Shaowaner said: "Sister Aihua's father is the leader of the county, and this is all workers' housing, how can it be the same?" Let's go, let's go and ask which floor Accountant Chen lives on? ”
After inquiring, I learned that Accountant Chen lived in the fourth room on the third floor. The two went up to the third floor, and Li Sankui stood at the entrance so shocked that he couldn't speak. The building is flanked by houses and in the middle is a common corridor. The corridor was long, with stoves and pans on both sides, leaving enough space for one person to walk.
After half a ring, Li Sankui came back to his senses and said, "Sister, why are they all cooking here?" Not afraid of fire? ”
Tian Shao said with a smile: "They don't burn the coal used for firewood, they won't catch fire." ”
When she was a child, she heard her grandparents talk about this kind of tube building, so she was not surprised, but it was really shocking to see it with her own eyes.
Just then, an old lady wearing an apron with her hands covered in flour walked out. When she saw the two of them, she asked, "Girl, young man, who are you looking for?" ”
Because of the heavy accent, Tian Shao only understood after listening to it three times: "We were looking for Accountant Chen, and a child just told me that she lived in the third room. ”
When the old lady heard this, she shouted loudly: "Accountant Chen, Accountant Chen......"
As soon as the voice fell, several of them opened the door and poked their heads out of the house. Seeing Accountant Chen come out, one of the women with curly hair asked with a smile, "Accountant Chen, is this your relative?" Why haven't you seen it before? ”
Accountant Chen still had a dull expression: "It's a relative in the countryside." Big girl, Sankui, come in! ”
After the two entered the house, Accountant Chen closed the door.
Li Sankui was a little disappointed when he entered the house, he thought that Accountant Chen's family would be the same as Li Aihua's home! As a result, not only was the room full of all kinds of things, but there were also fans and televisions.
Accountant Chen beckoned the two siblings to sit down, and then made two cups of brown sugar water for them to drink. Li Sankui drank it in two sips, and Tian Shao drank more gentlely.
After drinking the water, Li Sankui got up and said, "Cousin, if there's nothing to do, then I'll go back first." ”
At the age of sixteen, he was already the main laborer in the country. Li Sankui is a boy, and now the public security is very good, and Tian Shao is not worried about him alone: "Then you go back!" When I was done with nothing at home, I went out to read and write with Sanya. ”
Li Sankui nodded and said, "I will." ”
Accountant Chen gave Li Sankui a small packet of peach crisp and said, "Take it and eat it on the road!" ”
Li Sankui looked at Tian Shao and accepted it when he saw her nodding.
As soon as he left, Tian Shao took out three big unity cards from his pocket: "Aunt Chen, the next month will be hard for you." ”
"I told your Aunt Yang that the money will be given to me after you work, didn't she tell you?"
Tian Shao nodded and said, "Aunt Yang told me, but I have already prepared this money, so I don't need to wait until after work." Besides, I wasn't completely sure I would get in. ”
Accountant Chen thought that Tian Shao should be able to pass the exam, but he didn't say anything more for fear that she would be proud and complacent. Then she told Tian Shao her own arrangement, teaching eight hours a day, from eight to twelve in the morning, and from one to half past five in the afternoon. ”
Tian Shao felt that the class time was too long, but it was a bit inappropriate to bring it up now, so she decided to take a day of class before mentioning it. Unexpectedly, someone knocked on the door within five minutes of the class, and when I opened the door, I saw that it was the curly-haired woman just now: "Accountant Chen, I can't find my scissors, can you lend them to me?" ”
Accountant Chen said with a faint expression: "The scissors were borrowed by Sister-in-law He yesterday and have not been returned yet. ”
The curly-haired woman sighed, then stared at Tian Shao and asked, "Girl, which commune are you from?" I see you're very kind, I've definitely seen you before. ”
Tian Shao shook his head and said, "I haven't seen you." ”
Accountant Chen frowned and said, "Tiezhu mother, I still have something to do, you want to borrow scissors and borrow them from someone else!" ”
The curly-haired woman walked out in a daze.
Half an hour later, there was a child's heart-rending cry outside, which was so loud that Tian Shao couldn't listen to the class, and it took more than a quarter of an hour before it was quiet outside.
It wasn't quiet for long, and suddenly there was a sound of quarreling downstairs. It turned out that two old ladies were arguing over the construction of drying racks and scolded each other for half an hour.
Accountant Chen saw that Tian Shao's face was not good, and said helplessly: "Big girl, the environment here is like this, if you don't want me to return the money to you." ”
Tian Shao said: "Aunt Chen, the place I rented is about fifteen minutes away from here, and it takes six or seven minutes to get there by bicycle. Aunt Chen, see if you can go to my class. ”
Taking this opportunity, Tian Shao also said: "You don't need to take eight hours of class, just six hours." From 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and from 2:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Aunt Chen, do you think this is okay? ”
"Is the place you renting quiet?"
Tian Shao nodded and said, "I rented a bungalow, and it was quite quiet when I went there yesterday afternoon and this morning." ”
"Yes, but time doesn't change."
Tian Shao shook his head and said, "Aunt Chen, this exam is divided into two sessions, one written test and one actual account. I also need to make time to read, and you can teach me six hours a day. ”
Accountant Chen thought about it for a while and felt that she was right, there are many questions to be done in the exam, and these also need training.
After eleven o'clock there were more people outside. The sound of talking, the clashing of pots and pans, was so noisy that it was impossible to hear what Accountant Chen said. She didn't want to embarrass herself, so she got up and said, "Aunt Chen, then I'll go back first." ”
Accountant Chen already knew the place Tian Shao rented, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to you in the afternoon." ”
Tian Shao said embarrassedly: "Aunt Chen, I'm really sorry, I want you to run back and forth every day." ”
Accountant Chen shook his head and said earnestly: "Big girl, such an opportunity is rare, you must take advantage of it." ”
It was because the opportunity was so rare that Tian Shao would go to the city under pressure to prepare for the exam. Of course, she also has this self-confidence.
Accountant Chen took out the vegetables she brought, and found that there was a piece of bacon in the vegetables, she shook her head and said, "This kid ......"
When he said this, a rare smile appeared on his face.
Back at the Wei family, Tian Shao told Aunt Wei about it: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I made a decision without your consent. It's just that the place is so noisy that I can't listen to the class at all. ”
Aunt Wei smiled and said, "What's this!" Accountant Chen is willing to come to my house to teach you, I am too late to be happy, and I will be angry. Okay, you go back to the house to rest, and the meal will be ready in no time. ”
