Ma Shuhua looked at Tian Tian in surprise, "Why do you envy me? I didn't get into college, and I'm not a college student. I'm working in a textile factory and in a trade union. There's nothing to envy!"
"You don't have that yet? You are sitting in an office now, protected from the wind and rain, and you can still be at home and take care of your parents. Look at me, I am going to such a far place, and I will definitely work there in the future. I won't be able to be with my parents, and I won't be able to help them with anything they have. Besides, by the time I start working, how many years will you have been working? By then, you will definitely earn much more money than I do. How great is that!" Tian Tian said.
Ma Shuhua smiled after hearing this. Compared with others, her job was actually very good and she was quite proud of it. However, she felt a little nervous in front of college students like Tian Tian. Now, after hearing what Tiantian said, she felt quite proud.
"Are you here to send a letter?" Tian Tian asked.
"No, I came here to make a phone call. The phone in our factory has been broken these days and hasn't been repaired yet. I happened to have a business with a factory outside, so I came here to call and ask about it." Ma Shuhua said.
She felt a little envious when she saw Tian Tian looking so relaxed. She still had to go to work today and had no way to rest.
"Then I won't disturb you. I'll leave first. We can play together when we have time!" Tian Tian said.
"Okay!" Ma Shuhua didn't take this sentence to heart. She knew in her heart that it was just a polite remark. She didn't know whether she would meet the same person again next time after this meeting.
After saying goodbye to Ma Shuhua, Tian Tian went outside the supply and marketing cooperative to wait for Old Lady Tian and the others. Yes, it was nearly the New Year, and there were a lot of things in the supply and marketing cooperative, including eggs, fruits, and various handicrafts collected from the brigade.
So there are quite a lot of people in the supply and marketing cooperatives these days. Even today, there were a lot of people squeezing in the cooperatives. Some people had finally bought things and squeezed out, and their clothes were all squeezed open, leaving them wrinkled.
The first thing everyone did when they came out was to look at the things in their hands to make sure that nothing had been squeezed out. Then they all pulled at their clothes and smoothed them out before leaving.
Tian Tian waited for a long time before she saw Old Lady Tian and Lin Meiyu squeeze out.
Seeing that Lin Meiyu had squeezed out with her arm still inside, Tian hurried over to help. He reached the thing in Lin Meiyu's hand and pulled it out with force. He found an enamel basin and an enamel pot, as well as a few towels and a bar of soap.
What Old Mrs. Tian was holding in her arms was the colored paper for pasting on the wall.
"You also bought a new enamel basin for my brother? And a towel, this towel is so white." Tian Tian took the things in Lin Meiyu's hand and threw the colored paper bought by Old Lady Tian into the basin.
"I bought this towel for you. You are also studying in a big city. You can't just use a towel for a year. It will shed hair and you won't like it. When you start school, you can bring the towel to school. Girls feel comfortable when they are clean, and others will think you are a clean person."
Lin Meiyu gestured again, and the remaining washbasin and towel, "This washbasin and enamel pot are for your sister-in-law. The girl from the city said that she would definitely not be willing to use the same washbasin with us, so let's buy her a new one, otherwise she will feel uncomfortable. And these daily necessities are also prepared for your sister-in-law. Although I don't know if she can bring these daily necessities, I will always prepare them!"
Tiantian didn't say anything, "I don't need this towel. The towel I used at school has only been used for a few years and it's still usable. You can keep it for yourselves. You and dad's towels should also be replaced. They are all torn and I don't think they can even clean your face."
The towels used by Lin Meiyu and Tian Lisong have probably been used for more than ten years. Although their family is rich now, the couple are used to being careful and are reluctant to replace many things even if they are torn.
The towels that Lin Meiyu and her friends use now not only shed, but also get stained over time that can't be washed off. Some spots are already bald and now they're torn from washing, and they look awful at all.
Tian Tian had wanted them to change their towels for a long time, but they were both reluctant to do so. Even after Tian Tian gave them the towels, Lin Meiyu still gave them away as gifts, which made Tian Tian very angry and she never mentioned buying them towels again.
"What do you want to change? The towel at home can still be used. How can we change it after each use? That's such a waste." Lin Meiyu said directly.
Tian Tian curled her lips after hearing this and said nothing more. She decided to rinse the towel with water when she returned and then force Lin Meiyu to change her towel. If she wanted them to paint by themselves, she didn't know how long she would have to wait.
She also said that her towel was old, but she had just bought it before going to college. Besides, Tian Tian was a person who loved cleanliness, so her towel was still spotlessly white. It was not like what Lin Meiyu said, that the towel had been used for a long time.
After buying things, they walked towards home. Halfway there, it started snowing again. The three of them walked home in the wind and snow, and they all turned into big snowmen.
Old Mrs. Tian didn't even have time to rest or warm up, she began to hurriedly make the paste. After making the paste, the family began to re-paste all the wallpaper in the room. After that, the whole room became bright.
Tian Tian looked at the pink and white wallpaper with some envy, "It will look really nice with wallpaper. My sister-in-law will definitely like it."
After spending several times with Han Luying, Tian Tian discovered that Han Luying likes brighter colors such as pink and bright yellow. Even her handkerchief is pink with small flowers. She must be very happy to see this room.
Lin Meiyu built this house originally to welcome Han Luying. Now hearing what Tian Tian said, Lin Meiyu felt even happier.
The next day after they cleaned up the yard, Tian Yuan brought his new wife home.
They rode in the car for quite a long time. After everyone got to know each other, Lin Meiyu sent Tian Yuan and the others to rest in the house.
They were both very tired indeed, so when Lin Meiyu made the decision, they didn't say anything and went back to the house to rest.
"This new daughter-in-law looks good. She and our Xiao Yuan are a perfect match. They look like a couple." After Tian Yuan and his wife entered the house, Lin Meiyu's face froze with smile, and she couldn't stop praising Han Luying.
