Tong Lin was stunned by this question.

After reacting later, she smiled and nodded, "Yes, twenty." ”

"It doesn't look like it." Tan Rongquan said seriously.

"I was not in good health when I was a child, and I was very thin at birth, so now I look smaller than my peers." Tong Lin hadn't talked about this with others, but in the face of this silent and kind-hearted soldier, she felt close, so she said a few words deeply.

"You look a lot like someone I know."

"Where?" Thinking back to the day, this person stared at her, Tong Lin understood, and then thought that he suddenly came to help, I am afraid that it was also because she looked like his friend.

But she borrowed the light of his friend.

"I can't tell where it looks, it's not like it in every detail, but it's very similar between the eyebrows."

It's hard to answer.

Tong Lin understands temperament? But it's not like that.

She nodded with a smile, "I hope to get to know your friends when I have a chance in the future." ”

"I want you to know each other, too." Tan Rongquan nodded, and left decisively this time.

Tong Lin locked the door, returned to the house, and locked the door from the inside, still thinking about the man's words just now.

"Oops, I forgot to ask the other person's name." Tong Lin patted his head, thinking that he would ask Tan Yuanqing in the future.

On the other hand, Tong Li, who went to the Cultural Palace to report for work, stayed in the Cultural Palace all day and was arranged to practice singing with a small choir.

At the end of the day, Tong Li's voice was hoarse.

After returning home, there was no imaginary joy, while eating while complaining, "The group arranged for me to take a small class, all of them are kindergarten-sized children, not obedient at all, let alone understand what you say, which is to teach singing, it is simply coaxing children, all day long, it is to keep shouting for them not to talk and be disciplined, the result is either this crying or that crying, or wetting pants." ”

"There's no ease with work, take your time." Zhou Mei picked out the meat in the dish and put it in her daughter's bowl, "You are just doing it, if you want to enter the factory, it is manual labor." ”

"Mom, buy me a thermos cup tomorrow, colleagues in the Cultural Palace use thermos cups, drink more warm water is good for your throat." Tong Li said.

Zhou Mei frowned, "You are at work now, what do you want to buy at your own expense." ”

There is still a shortage of 17,000 for arranging work, the Cultural Palace is waiting for money, and the in-laws still owe 3,000, and now there is no penny at home.

"Mom, I have to spend it next month, you give me five yuan, I'll buy one tomorrow, everyone else has it, but I don't have it." Tong Li muttered.

"Give the child five dollars." Tong Shi drank the last sip of liquor in the cup, he took out five yuan from his pocket and put it on the table, "But what your mother said is also right, now that you are at work, your hands will be tighter in the future, your salary will not support you, and the hand will come to your in-law's house and let your in-laws have opinions." ”

"Thank you, Dad, got it." Tong Li happily took the money and happily stuffed it into her pocket.

Zhou Mei smiled, "You just get used to him." ”

Seeing that her husband was in a good mood, Zhou Mei's eyes flickered, "Tong Lin is back." ”

Tong Shi snorted, "Homecoming?" Why didn't you let her stay at home for one night? ”

"I didn't come back, I don't know when I came back, Ji Yushu met them on the street on the night of Tong Li's birthday." Zhou Mei said, "The previous things have passed, can you really cut off the relationship with the child?" Besides, are you really willing to do it? ”

"She has a big temper and complains about us in her heart, what can I do?" Tong Shi put down the chopsticks, "You said the same thing, take the time to take the initiative to talk to the child, and let her take the object home to sit down." ”

"The children are here to collect debts." Zhou Mei was able to get down, and turned around to explain to her daughter, "Take the time to ask Yushu and see where Tong Lin lives now?" Then you go and tell her that I told your father that the past is over, and there is no reason to go back to the city, and let her take her husband home to see. Your father and I raised her so much, just because she has a big temper, and let neighbors and friends laugh at me and your father behind her back, can she have a good conscience? ”

"Okay, let the child go home, you say those words again, can the child come back?"

Zhou Mei stopped talking.

Tong Li didn't want to go, but she didn't want to make her parents angry, so she could only reluctantly respond.

The next day, Tong Lin opened the window to see that the ground was already dry, and sprinkled some water on it, otherwise the cement floor would be easy to crack if it dries too quickly.

Then she ajar the window, locked it, and went to the east side of the city.

She wants to buy a house in the east of the city, and there is no middle at this time, and if she wants to find a house, she has to find it herself.

The family building of the textile factory where the Tong family lives lives lives in that area, and Tong Lin bypassed that side, but inquired if the nearby bungalows were for sale.

She went to a place where there was a commissary, bought a bag of salt, and said a few words about wanting to buy a house, Tong Lin's mouth was sweet and said that she would, and the people in the commissary heard that she was going to buy a house, and really helped her introduce a few, and enthusiastically took her over in person.

It is in the bungalow area next to the textile factory, walking in from the alley, the innermost household, the yard is very large, there are more than 80 square meters, three main houses and two wing rooms.

And the house is still in the innermost, and it will be quiet to live here.

Tong Lin fell in love at a glance, but she didn't show it on her face, "Aunt Xu, this house has been around for years, right?" Looking at the tiles that have to be replaced, I leaned on the innermost again, and it was a little off, and it was not easy to be heard when I shouted something. ”

Aunt Xu is the one who opened the commissary in the front, she is in her forties, with a square face, very white skin, generous in her work, and kind-hearted.

"Your child is still young, this house is big, you live in it, and no one will bother." Aunt Xu lowered her voice, "This man has made a mistake, and the woman also wants to sell the child and go back to her hometown, and it is time for you to buy it, and you will not encounter it sooner or later." ”

Aunt Xu is so enthusiastic, but the Tong Lin who sets off is too annoying, and she also told the truth, "Auntie, how much do you think this house costs?" ”

"Usually at least 5,000 yuan, but now she is in a hurry, and told me that 3,000 yuan is enough."

Tong Lin didn't speak.

Aunt Xu misunderstood that she thought it was expensive, "To build this kind of large tiled house with a single courtyard, it is more than 10,000 yuan, and this house has not been built for a few years, but it has not been repaired after the family lived there." ”

"Auntie, when do you think you can transfer the ownership?"

Aunt Xu smiled, "You get the money ready, you can do it today." ”

"Okay, I'll come over in the afternoon, and my aunt will help me contact this family."

"Cover me with this, I like your child when I look at it, I gave birth to four sons, and I don't want to have a girl, you live here in the future, and you can find me if you have anything."

Tong Lin said that she was married, but Aunt Xu misunderstood that her in-laws' family was not here, but the young couple settled here.
