The three of them discussed it and decided to order two more dishes for lunch.

During lunch, Liu Yihuan asked curiously, "By the way, Sister Zhou, do you know why the boss suddenly wanted to go back to her husband's hometown to take care of the baby?"

"I don't know. I just heard her talk about it today."

"The medical conditions in the city are so good. Isn't it a torment to go to the countryside? My uncle was an educated youth in the countryside. After he came back, he said that he didn't want to go to the countryside for the rest of his life. There was endless work to do and not enough to eat. The most important thing was that the mosquitoes were as big as a fist and they scared people to death."

"What? Can a mosquito be as big as a fist?"

"Isn't that right?"

Zhou Jing found it incredible and looked at Lin Yuyao and asked, "Are mosquitoes in the countryside really as big as a fist?"

Lin Yuyao: "I don't know. We don't have mosquitoes that big where we are."

"Yi Huan, where did your uncle go to work in the countryside?"

"Where was it? I don't remember, but he said it was a very poor place with so many mountains that you couldn't see the end of it."

"It's not like all the countryside. Maybe the countryside the boss is going to is no different from the city. So what if there's a lot of work? They can't let the boss do the work." She lowered her voice and said, "Pan Hong is a live-in son-in-law, he has no say. Besides, the boss is pregnant."

"That's true."

While the three were talking, they heard what seemed to be guests coming in from outside.

Lin Yuyao put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm going to leave. You guys eat quickly."

"become."

She took out a handkerchief and quickly wiped her mouth, then strode out. The guests she saw looked at each other in stunned silence.

"Yuyao?"

Lin Yuyao: “…” It turned out to be Fang Qing.

"What do you want to buy?"

Fang Qing looked her over and said, "So you work here, it's pretty good, how much do you make a month?"

"It's inconvenient to tell you. Just tell me what you want to buy and I'll get it for you." Lin Yuyao said lightly.

Fang Qing was no longer in a hurry to buy anything. She was envious of her because she actually worked in a library.

It's clean, looks like an educated person, and the work is not busy. It's much better than working in the factory nearby.

"That must be a lot, right? Are you still hiring?"

She thought that she could do it even if the salary was lower.

If I could work here, I would be able to take care of my children when I bring them back.

There are chairs and a table here where he can do his homework.

There are so many books available for him to read for free.

This job is simply not suitable for her.

Lin Yuyao looked at her with a little surprise, her eyes shining. Could it be that she still wanted to work here?

She had never worked in her life, and relied on the pension and the money given by Lu Jiangting to live a more comfortable life than anyone else.

"No hiring." She said coldly.

Fang Qing curled her lips, knowing in her heart that Lin Yuyao disliked her, so she didn't say anything more.

"I'm here to buy two books. Can you recommend some for me? See if there are any books suitable for kindergarten children."

Nowadays, not many people value education even in kindergarten.

She is quite concerned about her son's education.

Unfortunately, she knew her son was a poor student.

Lin Yuyao went to the bookshelf and took out some books suitable for kindergarten children.

"These are all fine. Just take a look at how many you want."

Fang Qing took it and looked at it, then shook her head and said, "No, my son can't read. Your words are too complicated. Please help me find some without words, just pictures."

Lin Yuyao looked down. There were only a few sentences on this page, and almost all of it was pictures. Is this not acceptable?

No, he doesn’t know how to do it. Don’t you have to teach him?

A book without any words on it is a picture book and is not suitable for children to read.

Lin Yuyao said: "These books are fairy tales suitable for kindergarten children. You have to read them to them."

"It's not me who goes to school, why should I read to him? You can just pick some books with pictures and learn to read. The school will teach you."

Lin Yuyao: “…”

She finally understood why Fang Qing's son was a poor student.

Comrade Wang Jianjun is definitely a top student, but he didn't inherit any of that from his father. His mother is so unreliable, so if he isn't a bad student, who would be?

"No, just these few. You can look somewhere else."

"You..." Fang Qing wanted to say something, but held back.

"Let's take this one." Finally, she picked the one with the fewest words.

"how much."

"Two dollars?"

"What? Two dollars? There are only a few words on it, it's all drawings, why do you want two dollars?"

Lin Yuyao: "It is because the fewer words and the more paintings, the more valuable it is. Otherwise, you can buy those black and white ones without paintings, which are cheaper."

Fang Qing: “…”

Lin Yuyao looked at her with a half-smile, "Are you going to buy it or not?"

Lin Yuyao knew that Fang Qing knew that books with color paintings were more expensive. She was not a fool, so of course she knew that.

She did it on purpose, trying to make herself cheaper.

Don't mention that the books here are not discounted at all.

Even if she could get a discount, given their relationship, she would not give it to her.

Fang Qing took a deep breath and slowed down her voice.

"Yuyao, please give me a discount since we are from the same hometown. You know I only have ten yuan left in my pocket. I have to support myself and my child with this little money."

"Then don't buy books. Books are not cheap."

"Chenchen should have gone to school, but now he doesn't. Jiang Ting said that he would help Chenchen find a school and he would go to school when the next semester starts. He asked me to buy a book to teach Chenchen at home. It's not that I wanted to buy it, but Jiang Ting asked me to buy it because he values ​​Chenchen's studies."

Oh.

Did she think that Lin Yuyao would be sad if she said that?

Sorry, she wasn't sad at all and even respected the blessing.

If they could get married, she would definitely give a gift money.

Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "It's right to attach importance to children's studies, so buy it. If the money is not enough, ask Lu Jiangting to give it to him, he will be paid soon. If it's really not possible, ask him to borrow from his friends, he can borrow it."

Fang Qing looked at Lin Yuyao in surprise, "Yuyao, aren't you angry?"

Lin Yuyao chuckled.

See, Fang Qing knows everything.

She knew just the right words to poke her lungs.

In the past, she would have been really angry and might even have made a big scene.

Unfortunately, she no longer does that and will no longer be angry about Lu Jiangting.

Unless he doesn't pay me back.

"Don't be angry. Your comrade Jianjun is Lu Jiangting's savior. He should take care of you. Comrade Jianjun sacrificed his life to save Lu Jiangting, so he should take care of you on behalf of Comrade Jianjun."

Fang Qing looked at her strangely, "Do you really think so?"

Lin Yuyao nodded, pointed at the book and said, "Do you want to buy it or not? If not, I will put it back."

Fang Qing was stunned for a moment, then said, "Buy it. For Chenchen, two dollars is worth it. I'll buy it."

She took out two yuan and gave it to Lin Yuyao, then took away the book with more pictures than words.

Lin Yuyao looked and found that she really didn't have much money left in her pocket.
