Chapter 147 Eighty-year-old doormat (147) You are here
"I want to learn Japanese by myself. I want to ask Sister Hongying if she has any good ideas?" Wu Xiangyang lowered his head and clasped his hands together, twisting them into knots nervously.
"There are Japanese classes at the Cultural Palace, and there are teachers who will guide you and avoid detours." Mo Hongying said kindly, "Self-study is a bit difficult."
"Well... I asked about it, the tuition is a bit expensive." Wu Xiangyang looked at her awkwardly and said.
Mo Hongying looked at him doubtfully, Gui? Although his salary is less than mine, three or four months of savings is still enough!
Looking at him, I remembered what was going on at his family. All his wages had been handed in, but his family probably wouldn't pay for the tuition!
"Wait a minute." Mo Hongying entered the bedroom, and when she came out, she handed him the things and said, "Here is the textbook, here is the dictionary, and here is the walkman. There is a tape inside. Read along and correct yourself." Pronunciation." She put it into his hand and said, "Japanese is not difficult to learn, because they use Chinese a lot, but the pronunciation is different."
"Thank you!" Wu Xiangyang held them in his arms and looked at her with his face flushed as he thanked her.
"Why are you being so polite to me?" Mo Hongying looked at him angrily and said, "Studying well is the greatest gratitude."
"I will." Wu Xiangyang looked at her with a smile on his face and said, stood up and looked at her and said, "I'm leaving, I won't disturb you anymore."
"I'll see you off." Mo Hongying sent him out, closed the door, and returned to the inner room.
Mo Hongying looked at Gu Shanshan who was lying on the bed with her big eyes looking at her and said, "I'm quarreling with you."
"Why do you need to study by yourself, Uncle Wu? The Cultural Palace is very convenient." Gu Shanshan looked at her without understanding and said.
"I have to because of family reasons." Mo Hongying sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her and said.
"For family reasons, isn't it just chasing the children to go to school and learn more?" Gu Shanshan said as she looked at her with big flashing eyes.
"Not all parents think so." Mo Hongying looked at her with clear eyes and said, "Some parents think that studying is useless and they might as well go out and work early to make money."
"Can someone like Uncle Wu learn it?" Gu Shanshan asked curiously.
"If you make up your mind and work hard, you will definitely succeed. The most important thing is persistence." Mo Hongying pointed her index finger at the tip of her nose and said, "Okay, go to bed now."
"What's the sound?" Gu Shanshan heard the crackling sound coming from outside the window, and looked out the window, "It's snowing." She got out of the bed and said, "No need to go to night school tonight!" She jumped up and down. Said, "I don't have to take a nap anymore."
"Come back quickly, don't catch a cold." Mo Hongying looked at the little guy wearing only a small cotton jacket and cotton trousers and shouted.
"It's not cold." Gu Shanshan put on the large cotton-padded jacket placed at the end of the bed.
"I don't like night school!" Mo Hongying looked at her with warm, jade-like eyes and said.
"No, no!" Gu Shanshan shook her head and said, "Mom, rain or shine, I hope you have a rest. It's okay to miss a class!"
Gu Shanshan came over, took her hand, gently shook her and said coquettishly, "Is it okay if I don't take a nap?"
"If you don't want to sleep, then don't sleep!" Mo Hongying said looking at her happily.
Gu Shanshan sat cross-legged on the bed and looked at her and asked, "I just heard my uncle talk about the house? What happened?"
"The factory will give you a reward of 1,000 yuan, and a monthly salary of 300 yuan in the future." Mo Hongying looked at her with a smile and said.
"Wow..." Gu Shanshan's mouth was open enough to fit an egg.
"Why are you so surprised?" Mo Hongying pinched her chubby cheeks and asked, "It's not like I've never seen so much money before."
"No, this has a different meaning." Gu Shanshan looked at her with eyes like black grapes and said, "Grandpa Ma can't even offer such a high salary, he is the director of the factory!"
"Don't I deserve it?" Mo Hongying looked at her with raised eyebrows and said.
"You should, you should." Gu Shanshan looked at her with enthused eyebrows and said, "I just didn't expect there would be bonuses. In the past, there were only certificates, teapots, towels, and thermos bottles were rare."
"It's different now. You can't let people go hungry and make selfless contributions. At the very least, you have to ensure their survival needs without worries!" Mo Hongying looked at her with clear eyes and said, "Material rewards are very important."
"I understand, if you want the horse to run, you have to feed the horse." Gu Shanshan looked at her with bright black eyes and said.
"Yes!" Mo Hongying looked at her with a smile and said.
"Then you won't work here!" Gu Shanshan looked at her with big watery eyes and said.
"Yes, we specialize in developing new products." Mo Hongying looked at her with a bright smile on her face and said.
"Mom is very happy." Gu Shanshan looked at her with bright eyes and asked.
"Of course." Mo Hongying's eyes were filled with joy. She was naturally happy to be able to return to her old profession.
Mo Hongying thought about it again and said, "Although the salary has gone up, we still have to live here."
"I understand, the housing in the factory is tight. Those people who took the initiative to give up their houses for us had their heads broken." Gu Shanshan said obediently, "This place is nice and spacious." She nodded heavily and said, "I like it here."
"Let me tell you the current situation of our family, just know it." Mo Hongying looked at her with crooked eyebrows and said.
"Even if mom doesn't tell, I won't ask." Gu Shanshan looked at her with watery eyes and said, "Most families won't tell their children about family affairs."
"Our family is special, and I won't hide it from you." Mo Hongying looked at her softly and said.
"Mom!" Gu Shanshan stood up and threw herself on Mo Hongying.
"What are you doing?" Mo Hongying patted her back and said softly.
"Nothing?" Gu Shanshan hugged her and said, "It's great to have you here."
"Little fool." Mo Hongying looked at her softly and said, "Oh! By the way, the stove will be moved outside in two days."
"What do you mean?" Gu Shanshan raised her head from her arms and moved back.
"Your Grandpa Ma is going to turn on the heating in our house, so we won't need the briquette stove for heating." Mo Hongying looked at her with relaxed eyebrows and said.
"Yeah! That's great. I'm always nervous about using this briquette stove. It's so scary!" Gu Shanshan said with a pale face and fear, "Is the briquette stove still in use?"
"Use! Put it in the corridor to boil water and make porridge. It's good." Mo Hongying looked at her with bright eyes and said, "I won't use these briquettes. I'll just leave them to take up space."
"There's no need to worry about gas outside." Gu Shanshan said with a smile.
"Are you okay at school?" Mo Hongying looked at her with her deep and bright eyes and asked.
"It's good. There are less gossips." Gu Shanshan looked at her with big black eyes and said, "Mom's strength has made them dare not talk about us behind our backs anymore."
