Chapter 520: Purely Evil
Mrs. Feng met her gaze without panicking. Instead, she asked with a smile, "Mr. Qin's house has installed a telephone. It will be convenient for our neighbors to make phone calls in the future. Mr. Qin, can we come to your house to make phone calls when we have something to do in the future?"
After she asked this question, everyone else also noticed.
That’s true, but nowadays phone charges are expensive and it’s not convenient to make a phone call. You also have to queue up at the post office.
Now that there are telephones in the family compounds, do they no longer have to queue up at the post office to make phone calls?
We all live in the same yard, we see each other every day, and if neighbors make a phone call, will we still charge them for the phone calls?
Their family is so rich and they even have a car, so they wouldn’t care about the phone bills.
As soon as Lin Chuxia saw the faces of these people, she knew what they were thinking, and Mrs. Feng behind the crowd looked even more smug.
Lin Chuxia knew that Mrs. Feng was not stupid, she was just simply bad.
She can't stand seeing others better than she is, can't stand seeing other families having a good life, and even can't stand seeing her own daughter or husband being better than she is.
According to later generations, such people are mentally ill and need to see a psychiatrist.
But these days, people don’t go to the hospital even if they have a cold or a fever, let alone mental illness.
Lin Chuxia smiled generously, "Okay, in the future, sisters-in-law can come to me and call me when they have urgent matters, so you don't have to go to the post office. You can pay the phone bills according to what the post office charges, and I will pay the phone bills together when the time comes."
Mrs. Fu laughed and said, "That's convenient. We don't have to walk so far and queue up. Otherwise, we have to say that Xiao Lin is generous. If any of you have such a good thing, you haven't seen anyone share it with everyone. This kindness will definitely be rewarded."
Lin Chuxia smiled and glanced at Sister Fu. "Sister-in-law, I don't deserve your words. We are all neighbors, and we should help each other. As long as everyone doesn't think I'm charging everyone for their phone calls, that's fine."
"Look at what you said. Even if you have a phone at home, this money doesn't come from the wind. Making phone calls has already made it convenient for everyone. Can you still pay for the phone bill? Don't even think about doing this. It's not right to even think about it. How shameless of you to do this."
After Sister Fu finished speaking, several sisters-in-law in the crowd looked unnatural and laughed awkwardly, "That's right, if it's not urgent, we can't disturb you Xiaolin, not to mention the phone bill, which must be paid."
Mrs. Feng's expression became even more interesting.
But no one cared what she thought.
After the little episode, several sisters-in-law went back to work, while a few were still watching the fun. Until someone reminded them that the coal haulers from the unit had arrived, the remaining sisters-in-law hurried back.
Lin Chuxia's home is equipped with heating, so there is no need to burn honeycomb coal.
When the unit comes to get coal, I can buy two tons at the same time and that will be enough.
Just as I was thinking this, someone came with a message saying that the coal hauler had arrived and asked anyone who needed coal to go and buy some.
The telephone at home had not been installed yet, so Lin Chuxia had to say hello to the master and went to Mrs. Gong's house first. She knew that Mrs. Gong's family also used radiators.
She and Mrs. Gong had agreed that after they bought the coal blocks, they would let the master come directly to her.
Mrs. Gong didn't go out today, but she definitely bought coal.
After listening to Lin Chuxia, he said directly, "Okay, I'll take the person to your place later, you guys unload first."
"That's not necessary. I just want to unload the coal as early as possible so that I can turn on the radiator. I'm afraid of the cold."
Lin Chuxia said embarrassedly.
Mrs. Gong understood what she said and smiled, "I feel the same way. When the weather gets cold, I feel uncomfortable all over. But it's not right for you to be so young. Xiaolin, are you feeling unwell? You don't look well."
Lin Chuxia touched her face subconsciously, "No? I'm just lazy. I don't want to move when it's cold. It just so happened that my family installed a telephone today, and someone came to unload coal, so I was busy on both ends."
She really felt unhappy about making this trip.
You know what, she rarely has this feeling.
"Then go back and have a good rest. I'll take the coal haulers to your place in a little while. You can stay in the front and it will be convenient for you. It's the same if I unload the coal for you first and then for us. I tell you, a woman's body is delicate. You can't be idle when you are young, otherwise you will suffer when you are old."
She has poor health and takes a lot of medicine throughout the year.
Not only does it cost money, but it also causes her family to worry about her.
Lin Chuxia nodded obediently and thanked Mrs. Gong again.
The telephone had not been installed yet when the coal truck was brought home by Mrs. Gong.
However, Qin Yang rushed back after hearing the news.
When Gong's wife saw Qin Yang, she smiled and said, "Xiao Qin is really caring. But your family is very busy today. Xiao Lin can't handle it. Look at her little face, it's pale from exhaustion."
Qin Yang also noticed that Lin Chuxia's face looked not very good, so he quickly asked her to go back to the house to rest.
The telephone was installed in the study. Qin Yang negotiated with the master who installed the telephone, and then unloaded the coal with the master who hauled the coal.
Then he took the coal cart to Mrs. Gong's house.
After all this trouble, the phone was finally installed and it was already noon.
Qin Yang didn't go back to the unit. He turned on the heating as soon as he got home.
Nowadays, every family calculates the coal and fire expenses, and would delay the fire by one day if possible. Only Qin Yang and his family would light the fire as soon as they had coal, and never calculate the cost.
some.
After lighting the fire, Qin Yang said with some distress, "Next time something like this happens, go to the office and call me, and I'll take care of it."
Although Lin Chuxia did feel uncomfortable just now, it was not that exaggerated.
It's okay to rest for a while.
Besides, this is nothing compared to her bun shop and shopping mall.
Only Qin Yang always treated her like a porcelain doll, not allowing her to do this or that, for fear that she would get tired.
"I'm fine. I guess it's just the last two days of chaos. I'm bored at home. You see me running to the mall and restaurants all day long. How could this happen? As the saying goes, the longer you stay away, the lazier you become and the more you eat, the more greedy you become."
Qin Yang disagreed and said, "I hope you can be a little lazy and greedy. I'll cook whatever you want for lunch."
Lin Chuxia thought for a moment and said, "Let's have hot pot. There are still the lamb rolls we bought last time in the refrigerator. We can have whatever other ingredients we have. You can just make the dipping sauce."
Qin Yang had no objection and went to the kitchen to prepare. Lin Chuxia glanced at the study and said, "The phone has been installed. When will it be connected? I want to call home and ask Su Wensong to check on Master. It's time to bring coal to Master."
The Qin family doesn't have to worry about it, Qin Han will take care of everything.
But he was the only one at Mr. He's place. If Lin Chuxia didn't think about this matter, the old man would just muddle along and wouldn't buy coal to light the stove until he had ice in the house.
"The post office said the earliest it can be done is the day after tomorrow. If you're in a hurry, go to my office first."
"That's not necessary. I'll wait."
With ready-made ingredients, hot pot is also easy to eat. After eating a hot pot, Lin Chuxia felt comfortable all over. In addition, the room was warm with heating, so Lin Chuxia just felt drowsy.
But before she fell asleep, there was a knock on the door...
