If you don't study hard now, when you grow up, you will only be able to

It's a very familiar sentence pattern. Tang Xiaoya has heard many versions of this kind of sentence formation since she was a child. Anyway, the core point is that everything changes. She thought she should get rid of it for so many years. Unexpectedly, she heard it again when she was shopping in cat cafes.

I'm too familiar with the tone and sentence pattern. I realize that Tang Xiaoya is a little bit itchy. I really want to open my mouth directly.

No, no, we should respect the old and love the young, and it's not good to quarrel in other people's shops. Calm down

Calm down, ghost! Tang Xiaoya is just about to make a mocking sound. She tells the old woman in front that the person she just mentioned is actually the owner of the shop. When the door is pushed open, the bell suddenly rings.

A man in a suit with a work card on his body half squeezed in and yelled, "is Lin Lan there? I have two tenants here who want to see the house in your building! "

Tang Xiaoya stopped and coughed directly.

Your family In the building My house?

Is she understanding something wrong, the owner not only has two shops in this building, but also bought a house?

Lin Lan, who was busy making tea in the water bar, had to break off his work and come out. At a glance, he saw the familiar face of the house agent, and two strangers standing outside: "why did you suddenly come to see my house? My parents, you call them? "

"I just can't get through the phone, and I can't find them to come to you." Intermediary some helpless way, "I behind two people want to rent a house, the location and house conditions on your home building there are appropriate, they have brought."

"Wait a minute. I'll try another one." After listening, Lin Lan began to dial with her mobile phone. It didn't work for her to call her father. Then she dialed her mother's and finally got through. Lin Lan quickly said, "Mom, where are you and dad I said, why is it so noisy on the phone? I went to the small dance hall in the back street The agent brought two people to see the house. I want to see if the shop can't go. You'll be back soon Yes, it's right in front of my shop. "

After a phone call, Lin Lan turned to the agent who had heard all the time and nodded to him: "you know the location of the little dance hall. They will be back in three or five minutes at most."

"That's good." The intermediary also put down his heart, then smile to her, "the two people outside want to rent a suite, one wants to rent a small single room, or the basement also get together, all require a bus station close to the subway, count to go to your building is the most convenient, can see all at once."

Basement?

As soon as Lin Lan heard that someone was renting a basement, she could not help looking at the stranger outside the gate. It was a man and a woman. They were young in appearance. From the distance of more than one meter between them, she knew that they were not all the same way. The female tenant's fur high boots made it clear that the conditions were very good, which made the male tenant wearing faded old cotton padded clothes a bit down .

It's almost clear who rents apartments and who rents basements.

"Come out and rent a basement this weather In less than a month, it will be Chinese New Year. " Lin Lan couldn't help muttering.

"Who knows?" Intermediary also shrugged, "the door-to-door business can not be pushed, right? We're going to celebrate the new year, too. "

It's true that no matter what the reasons for these two young people are, as long as they don't break the law or commit a crime, they can accept all the bills.

"In other words, Lin Lan, are you a good driver? The decoration is quite up-to-date. It costs a lot of money. "

"It's all right."

"Cats are good, too. Oh, and puppets and Maine? That's Abbey? The better one of these cats costs tens of thousands of yuan. You can make a cat out of them. It's a big deal! "

"It's all right, too."

Just then, the figures of the Lin family have already appeared outside the teahouse. When the agency and other people come, they don't stay here. They go straight to the main topic.

Tang Xiaoya vaguely heard the conversation of those people outside.

"Is there anything more suitable?"

"Yes, there are vacant apartments on the second floor, the fifth floor and the sixth floor. There are no single rooms. The basement..."

Until the group disappeared, Tang Xiaoya looked straight at the position of the water bar with a pair of big ox eyes.

Originally, she thought that the owner's little sister had her own shop and a big nest of beautiful cats. Now she realized that her understanding of life winners was too shallow.

This is a rental woman who is just a cat boss but actually owns a building!

Envy makes people shed tears unconsciously.

Tang Xiaoya, feeling hurt in her heart, takes a sip of her milk tea. Only the sweet and delicious food can soothe her heart a little. In her sorrow, she sees the owner of the shop carrying a large plate of tea to the granddaughter-in-law's table in front of her, and suddenly she is in a hurry.

Tang Xiaoya was sitting behind them, so she could still see the reaction of the family's side face from the angle of view. The conversation between the store manager and the agent was not small, and she could hear it inside the store. She felt that she had been severely attacked at that time. Is this old woman who used the store manager as a negative example to educate her granddaughter embarrassed to death now?Even if they don't study hard, they all have a building in them. Carrying dishes is just a hobby. There are lots of kittens worth tens of thousands around. How are you going to talk to your granddaughter?

The grandmother is really embarrassed now, because her granddaughter wants to come in to touch the cat, but she and her daughter-in-law have to come in. The grandmother herself is not happy, so she finds an excuse to teach her granddaughter a lesson, but she doesn't expect that the waiter is such a family member.

When the other party brought the tea to the table, the grandmother didn't notice. The woman looking after the child next to him also bowed her head in embarrassment. All the adults were quiet and shut up.

Lin Lan didn't say a word when she saw this. The old lady didn't lower her voice when she was educating her granddaughter. Of course, she also heard it. Now she just shrunk her head and pretended to be counsellor. Of course, she couldn't say anything more.

Originally, both sides intended to pretend that nothing had happened, but they couldn't stand the person who was arrested. She was dissatisfied with herself. Now the eight year old pupil was very unconvinced, so she stopped Lin Lan who wanted to leave: "sister, grandma said that if I don't learn well, I will become you when I grow up. Is that true? If I could have a house, such a beautiful shop and so many lovely cats, I would never study hard "No!"

"What are you talking about I'm sorry, my children are talking nonsense

Seeing that mother's face over there awkwardly covers her daughter's mouth to prevent her from saying more shameful words, Tang Xiaoya tries to make it over while covering her stomach with a smile.

Education can't change, it's counterproductive.

Relatively embarrassed guests, Lin Lan is very peaceful.

"It's not like that, little sister." She seriously looked at the children in front of her, "I can have a building and this shop, and it has nothing to do with whether I study hard or not. It is my grandparents who have made efforts for me, and they are striving to make progress, so that I have the present life as a descendant. Even if I don't study hard, I can still live a rich life. "

The old lady's eyes widened and her wrinkled face turned blue and red. She opened her mouth several times to scold, but she couldn't argue anything. But the look in the eyes of her daughter-in-law and granddaughter made her angry.

Lin Lan just like did not see the same, continue to say to the little girl: "so children, you have to work harder.". Only when you study hard, grow up and earn money, can you become a person like my grandparents, so that your descendants can happily hold the cat and do what they want to do even if they don't work hard. "

If you can't be rich for three generations, you can be rich for one.

The young child was inspired and clenched his little fist: "good! I will study hard and become a good grandmother with enough money to let my grandchildren have everything they want! "

"Poof - ha ha ha ha!" Tang Xiaoya couldn't help it. She bent down on the table and laughed wildly.

The old lady, who felt that she couldn't hang her face completely, got angry and stood up: "no, go home!" With that, she rushed straight to the gate.

"Mom?" The daughter-in-law was in a panic and wanted to drag her daughter to follow her. Before she could hold the cat, the little girl was about to cry when the old lady's roar came from the door.

"You are not allowed to follow, money is spent, do not give me waste!"

As the door was forced to close, the old lady quickly left with her face half covered.

Seeing people leave directly, it's embarrassing to change for Tang Xiaoya this time.

"No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to... " She knew that it was her laughter that made the old lady feel embarrassed. Otherwise, she could continue to pretend that nothing was wrong.

What else can the remaining mother and daughter say? At least the girl's mother doesn't know. She can only smile awkwardly.

Lin Lan doesn't care at all. She just reaches for her good tempered sapphire and gently holds it in front of the little girl: "little sister, it's beautiful, isn't it? You are as beautiful as it is. But both you and it like others to treat themselves gently, don't they? Now the elder sister of the store manager has given it to you for the time being. I hope you can treat it gently, but you can't bully it. "

Eight year old children who have been in primary school have long been sensible, especially the little girl. It's too late to cherish the beautiful and lovely things. Now given such a mission, the little girl solemnly hugs the cat: "sister, don't worry, I will take good care of sapphire!"

The child's mother looked at her daughter, now holding the cat like a sensible little adult, patiently combing its hair, playing with it, talking to it, and telling the general truth from school. She didn't have the wayward appearance before, so she couldn't help looking complicated.

Thinking of her mother-in-law who had just been run away, she was lost in thought.

Maybe the method of educating children at home really needs to be changed?

The atmosphere in the shop was restored to its original state. Tang Xiaoya was relieved and admired. She ran on the annoying old lady in a few words. After that, she was still able to give her little granddaughter a cat to play with, which directly calmed down the embarrassed guests. Maybe she could become a repeat customer. The shopkeeper's skill is really high.

Just then, she saw the owner take out a poster from the back room and put it on the window.Tang Xiaoya clearly saw the two big words "Recruitment" written on the top. Subconsciously, she leaned over and looked excited. She turned back and yelled at the water bar.

"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, I'm applying for hourly work! I'm free every weekend. Can you let me take a part-time job

Free cat, free tea and hourly salary. Why not!

…………

Lin Lan never thought that she would accept a temporary worker in less than five minutes after the poster was posted. The other person's name is Tang Xiaoya, 23 years old. She is an office worker in the west city. Her biggest hobby is leisure and cat grooming. She doesn't like social activities very much. She hates the company's team building because it takes up her precious private time.

Tang Xiaoya likes to have a cat, but she doesn't really want to have a cat.

"I can't help it. The house I rent is not for pets, and it's not suitable for cats. It's too small." When she talked about it, she was very helpless. "The most important thing is that I don't have much time to take care of it all the time. It's better to take a cat for a while if I want to suck it like this."

"You can consider moving here, my house is allowed to pet, the premise is not to cause damage to the house." Lin Lan made a joke with the new employee, but the other party was in a daze, bowed his head and fell into meditation.

Ten minutes later.

"I've thought about it, manager. I'll move to you when the rent is due next month. At the same time, it saves the trouble of running back and forth The other side responded seriously.

Lin Lan You're too aggressive, aren't you?

Leilifeng girls are quick to work. Before closing, because of Tang Xiaoya's help, Lin Lan really saved a lot of work.

When the daily wage was handed over, the girl shook her head and refused: "please change the account for me into Cat cans and cat strips. I'll save them all for mercury."

“…… You really love it. "

"If I don't have a house now and can't marry it, I can immediately ask the boss to redeem him!"

In the shop, accustomed to tea house life, the Maine cat, who was waiting for someone to send her upstairs, suddenly trembled all over. Her interest in licking her paws was interrupted. A pair of round cat eyes looked around with vigilance.

All around is a circle of familiar cat face, lick hair of lick hair, false sleep of false sleep, there is no terrible danger.

But why does it feel bad?

Mercury didn't realize that when she went back at night, Lin Lan would announce to the cats that Tang Xiaoya would become a weekend hourly worker, so she continued to lick her hair happily after she didn't find any danger.

But after Lin Lan got a short-term job, she was more happy and looked forward to a long-term job. Tang Meizi was diligent and easy to use, but she had to find someone who could help all day.

Lin Lan is even ready to recruit people after the Chinese New Year.

Speaking of the fast new year, Lin Lan thought of the two people who came to rent houses during the day.

"It's all rented?"

When the old Lin family had dinner together in the evening, Lin Lan looked at her parents in surprise.

"Yes, the two young people have rented, and the contracts have been signed." Lin Youyu said casually with the dish in his hand, "the apartment on the second floor that the girl rented will move in tomorrow. The other guy is more ruthless. He moved into the basement tonight. "

"It's very cold to live in the basement in winter." Lin Lan said subconsciously.

"No money, no way." Lin Youyu has been very used to, "if you have money in your pocket, who will want to live there."
