Chapter 449 Parallel Time and Space (Part 4)
I picked out a commonly used emoticon of Doraemon falling headfirst into the mud and threw it over.
You can feel the hopelessness of life without words.
Just a few seconds after I sent the message, the other party immediately replied with an emoticon of several ducks hugging each other and crying.
It’s great to meet people of the same age as me. The sense of unfamiliarity between colleagues was quickly reduced.
Lin Xiaotong lay on the sofa, typing away on her phone.
Xie: Has the minister mentioned this to you? There's a written test next Friday.
Lin: What the hell? You didn't tell me there's a written test? (Pupils tremble)
Xie: Yes, let’s at least go through a few questions, otherwise it will be embarrassing when the OA sends the written test results document.
Lin: It’s the company that has lost face, but my face is fine (spreading hands).
Xie: I'm about to be transferred, but I was dragged here. I downloaded the question bank first and will take a look at it when I have time.
Lin: Let’s talk about it on Monday.
Xie: I took a look and found that the question bank contained single-choice questions, multiple-choice questions, true-or-false questions, and short-answer questions. There were more than 600 questions in total, which was a lot.
Lin: I am still confused. Besides, I have an exam next week. The leaders are really careless.
Xie: I guess there will be a thick stack of documents printed out on Monday. How long will it take to finish them?
Lin: We are two unlucky little cabbages. How did we get caught?
Xie: Maybe the minister thinks we have too much hair (seriously).
Lin: It was clearly a compliment, but I could hear a sense of sadness in it.
Lin Xiaotong opened the file with one eye open, and after it was downloaded, she exited WeChat, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
After they finished complaining, they exited the dialog box, tacitly agreeing not to take up too much of each other's rest time.
Being forced to talk about work during breaks is the thing that workers hate the most, no doubt about it.
Lin Xiaotong turned over on the sofa and kicked her legs.
"This is so annoying! Forget it, let's talk about it on Monday and pick a sweet drama to watch."
After watching three episodes in a row, I felt sleepy and dragged my tired body into the bedroom.
I reached out to turn off the last light, hugged a big white duck, and fell asleep.
…
The next morning I slept until I woke up naturally, and the alarm clock was on vacation on the weekend and no longer made the annoying buzzing sound.
My head is clear, but my body still doesn't want to get out of bed.
She turned 360 degrees on the bed in various difficult postures, rubbed her hair which was a mess, and pulled herself off the bed with difficulty.
Open the curtains, open your arms, close your eyes, the sunlight playfully climbs on your face, and the wind blows through your hair.
Sunny weather always makes people feel better for no reason.
After washing up, I leisurely made myself some vegetable and egg noodles.
After taking a bite, she found that the taste was neither salty nor bland. This was the meal she made that was least likely to fail.
It was worth it that she added salt carefully and cautiously, for she was afraid that she would add too much salt like last time, so she drank a large bottle of water during the day.
I picked up my phone after breakfast. There was no message and it was quiet.
She felt relieved instantly.
I’m afraid that when I plan to go out on the weekend, I will receive a sudden notice to work overtime.
After packing up quickly, she will go to the hospital this week.
I heard that Mother Lin from the welfare home was sick and she went out for training during that time.
I have some free time this week, so I plan to buy some things and go over there to have a look.
I went to the store downstairs and bought some fruits and packed them in a cloth bag.
If it were packed in a plastic bag, a frugal person like Mother Lin would definitely complain a lot.
I carried some fruit and went out to take the bus. When I got off the bus, I looked at my phone and it was only half past nine.
When I arrived at the hospital, I looked up to check the room number and gently knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Pushing the door open, I saw a thin middle-aged woman sitting on the bed by the window.
When he saw the person coming, there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
"Mother Lin, I'm here to see you. How are you feeling now? Are you okay?"
Lin Xiaotong walked up quickly, put the fruit on the bedside table, gently held the woman's right hand that was not receiving the IV, and asked in a low voice.
You can feel a layer of calluses on the woman's hands. Her hands are not big, but very warm.
"It's just an old problem. The doctor said it's nothing serious. Why are you coming here?
Is work going well now? Is your boss easy to get along with?
Lin Xiaotong's eyes were filled with tears, and she raised her head to brush the hair off the woman's face behind her ears.
"Mother Lin, I'm already such a grown-up, why do I need you to worry about these things?
Don't worry, I'm very careful at work and I haven't been promoted yet.
By the way, I heard from my colleague that after working for a full year, you can take annual leave, and I can take 5 days!
I'd like to take you out for a trip, maybe to Sichuan Province, where you can see giant pandas."
Lin Sujuan's eyes were full of smiles. She didn't interrupt and listened to her patiently.
I temporarily ignored the unbearable pain in my body.
"That's good. That's why it's better to study. Once you gain knowledge and get a job, your future life will be much better."
After crossing mountains and ridges, you will eventually see the lush green spring mountains.
Most of the people in the welfare home are abandoned girls, and the number of healthy boys is relatively small.
The welfare home is located in the suburbs of a small county town. There are not many people who adopt children, and more kind-hearted people in the society choose to provide financial support.
After completing compulsory junior high school education, those who failed to get into high school left the welfare home and entered the society early.
Some people worked hard and studied diligently, and finally gained a foothold in the company and received a satisfactory salary.
Some people learned to smoke and drink, fell in love and started a family, and later had children. The burden of life suddenly increased and they had to shoulder the burden.
Different choices make up each person’s life.
"Mother Lin, you've been working at the welfare home for so many years. You'll be retiring next year, so the most urgent thing is to take care of your health."
Lin Xiaotong stared at her worriedly. After just a few months of not seeing each other, Lin Sujuan had lost several pounds.
You can feel the bones in the hand you hold, and strands of silver hair are appearing at the temples.
It's heartbreaking to watch.
Lin Sujuan patted her hands to comfort her: "As you get older, it's normal to have minor ailments.
There are still several children in the orphanage, how can I not keep an eye on them?"
"Mother Lin, I'm working now too. I'll be able to get my salary in three months, and then I can contribute."
People who come out of welfare homes will give back part of their first salary.
No matter how far it is, we will send it to you.
The recipient's name was Lin Sujuan.
"Okay, okay, even if you get a salary, you should spend it frugally. In the future, you should save more money to buy a small house and live alone.
You are still young, there is no rush to get married and start a family, just focus on your career first."
Lin Sujuan felt very gratified. Over the years, most of the children who came out of her hands were dedicated and slowly finished writing several notebooks.
Lin Xiaotong nodded.
Lin Sujuan has never been married in her life. For her, she has long regarded the children in the welfare home as her own children.
"Mother Lin, I'm going back to report..."
She sat on the edge of the bed and chattered about the trivial things at work, picking out some interesting ones to tell Lin Sujuan.
