Waving goodbye to the two kittens, Lin Lan takes out her mobile phone with a dignified face and starts to look through the addresses of other companies that she saw when she was looking for a job these days.

At present, the most favorite company has been passed, and of course, we have to continue to look for other units.

And because of the inspiration of this matter, Lin Lan also suddenly realized a new routine that can find out in advance.

After another call to her family, she told them that she might come back very late and didn't have to wait for her to have dinner. As soon as she received her mobile phone, she drove her electric donkey and set out to the location of the second company.

Looking at the whole country, even the most prosperous cities are inseparable from the existence of stray cats, especially these small things are smart and good at avoiding, walking through the streets and not being taboo by human beings, so they will know a lot of news.

Now that she can understand cat language, Lin Lan uses it to spy on the companies she wants to apply for.

The time of an afternoon, long or short, passes unconsciously in the consciousness of the person who has something to do.

Gradually winter autumn, the day is not long, the sun sets early, the city street lights gradually turn on row by row, lighting up the road completely lost light.

After working overtime for two hours, it was the end of the day. Cheng Fengyang drove his beloved gallop home, just like most people who came back home.

When the car was driving on the road, he turned the steering wheel and chatted with his brother on his mobile phone across the air, shouting: "oh my God, I've been busy for a month and finally got rid of Party A's father, but I'm exhausted! I tell you, it's not easy to eat this meal! I've changed the drawings for that client many times. I don't know how many times I've been to their house. The aunt said that she wanted to buy a house for her son and his wife, but she asked for more than her daughter-in-law. When I went there, I saw the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law tearing once. What kind of front guards should be installed in the bathroom? The living room wall must have the peony wall cloth of a happy family The most wonderful thing is the bedroom, which is designed to separate two rooms. Both husband and wife and children sleep in the same room, but it can't block the light from the balcony... "

After finishing a contract, Cheng Fengyang also starts to let himself go. Bla bla bla, bla bla, bla bla, bla bla, bla bla, bla bla bla, bla bla bla, bla bla bla, bla bla bla, bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla.

His brother's geese like laughter came from the speaker of the mobile phone immediately, but there was no sympathy at all? This year, Party A is the father, good service is right. And you have become a senior designer in the industry, and the cost of getting it is not low, right? 】

"well, it's hard to make money." Cheng Fengyang choked and said, "Gangzi, I tell you, when I think that I'm still single, my future daughter-in-law doesn't know where I am, and I may have to support her in the future, I feel a heavy burden on me."

[get out of here! 】There was a vicious spitting sound from the loudspeaker! Don't think I don't know that your family demolished four apartments more than ten years ago, and your father replaced two of them with big shops in the city center. The rent earned by lying down every month can catch up with the annual income of some people! 】

"well, that's my father's too, not mine." Cheng Fengyang said weakly, "and I'm not the only child. I don't own all my property."

Have a face! 】The brother on the opposite side of the mobile phone is going to scold again, [your family is you and your elder sister, and your elder sister has already married out, and your parents have also transferred a suite to her, and the rest is not all yours in the future! I want to sell it badly. Believe it or not, I'll tell your sister to go back to her mother's house and smoke you! 】

"don't stir up dissension, Yao Gang. My sister and I have a good relationship. If you dare to destroy it, I'll tell your girlfriend that you stole a set of thousands of VR games from her the other day!"

[Cheng Fengyang, you old Yinbi, dare you! 】The other end of the phone was obviously flustered.

"You're welcome. I'll be 15 when you're in grade one. We're all brothers. It's more intimate when you stab."

After chatting and farting with his brother, Cheng Fengyang turns the steering wheel and the car turns into another street. This is a shortcut home, but because the left and right sides of the street are semi construction facilities, and it is not the main road, so the flow of people from here is not very much.

Cheng Fengyang was stunned when the car turned towards the path.

"Is the street lamp broken?" Originally, it was a small street that had not been built, and there were not many street lamps. A few of them were scattered, which could be regarded as lighting. I don't think it's usual. Now the lights are all out, and there are high walls around, which make the small road look dark.

However, it had no effect on him. As soon as the high beam of Dashen was switched, the dark road in front of him was immediately illuminated for a long time.

Then he saw that he was not the only one on the road, but also a man with an electric donkey.

"It's dark. Why don't you turn on the light?" Cheng Fengyang murmured subconsciously. Under the high beam light, he clearly saw that the woman riding the electric donkey was a woman, wearing a helmet. He was wearing a suit of professional clothes that could be used to go to work. Now he was riding the electric donkey alone in the dark. He couldn't help sighing, "it's not easy."

Lin Lan is in a depressed mood at the moment.This afternoon, she rode around three alternative companies on her electric donkey. Two of them happened to have local cats nearby, and another one had cats in the shops nearby although there were no stray cats. So she had a little trouble and soon learned about the recent events in those companies.

A company is making layoffs, because it actively fired employees to pay more, so it deliberately forced employees to leave their jobs.

the salary of employees written in a company's recruitment information is completely inconsistent with the reality, the good idea of five days off two is actually six days off one, and the welfare treatment has shrunk by nearly half, often forcing employees to work overtime does not count as no overtime pay.

There is nothing wrong with the system of the last company. It's just that the boss has developed an indescribable relationship with one of her female employees. Yesterday, she was caught on the spot by the boss's wife. It's said that there was a lot of trouble. Today, she didn't appear in the unit.

Lin Lan Although she had expected that the job-hunting was always like this, but she was very tired when she met so many pits in a row.

This toss down, the day has been dark, thinking about promised to snow with delicious, Lin Lan riding a small electric donkey to go home, the day has been completely dark.

Now take a short cut. It's like a traffic jam. Even the street lights don't work.

It's no good to make a detour. Today, after so many rounds, her electric donkey has run out of electricity. In order to avoid the embarrassment of pushing her car home, she didn't even dare to turn on her headlights. Now she is driving carefully and slowly on this small road.

Until a car appeared behind, and the high beam with strong lighting dispelled the darkness on the road, Lin Lan's tense heart slowed down, but subconsciously drove the donkey to the side of the road to let the car pass.

But the car behind didn't accelerate, instead, it slowed down and kept pace with her, neither ahead nor approaching. The bright lights just lit up the road in front of Lin Lan.

This is Lighting her up?

The unexpected kindness came from strangers. Lin Lan could not help looking back, but was forced to turn back by the glare of the light. In such a strong light, let alone seeing the owner, it was difficult for the conductor to do anything.

She also no longer tangled, simply speeded up the speed of the little electric donkey, finished the road early, the car behind also speeded up and continued to wear.

In this way, a small electric donkey and a car tacit understanding from front to back, and quietly walked through the dark road.

Turning back on the brightly lit main road, it's very close to her home. While turning to the non motorized lane, Lin Lan also turns to take a look at the kind-hearted car on the motorized main road.

She was surprised to see this. She could see each other's big blue running car under the street lamp. The speed of the car gradually increased, and soon she left Lin Lan behind. She also saw the license plate number behind, and immediately determined that it was the car she had seen in the morning.

Recalling the situation that the car owner teased the dog with Wang Zhongwang in front of the traffic light in the morning, and looking at his previous good intentions, Lin Lan, who continued to drive the electric donkey, was in a mixed mood.

Then she saw that the car slowed down and turned directly to the gate of the high-end residential area opposite. The bar of the guard of the residential area stood up and put down. Lin Lan also went to the neighborhood of her own building.

"It's the opposite resident." When she got up and down from the electric donkey, she stared at the gate of the neighborhood and murmured, then turned around and dragged the car into the basement.

It's very late today. Her stomach is protesting. Let's go upstairs and have dinner.

Lin Lan felt that she was possessed by decadence. From that day on, she didn't find a job smoothly, but the company she liked could always find out some problems.

For several days, she was so angry that she didn't want to go out at all. She sat on the sofa with her big white cat and complained to her parents: "Mom and Dad, what do you call this?"

To daughter's indignation, Lin You Yu understanding at the same time also a little helpless, words Comfort: "otherwise Lan Lan, this second half of the year you don't go out looking for a job, wait for the peak after the year to find it."

"You are too choosy to find a job." When my father didn't say something, but my mother was not used to it. She said directly, "some of the company disputes you inquired about before are not unbearable. You just find that the company you like is different from what you think, so you don't want to go."

"I don't have that choice." Lin Lan was very unconvinced by her mother's reproach, and her action of sucking the cat was bigger. "I've lowered my salary request, so I want to find a quiet and leisurely class. Is it difficult to ask? Snowflake, you said I was right? Your grandmother scolds me every day. I'm so pitiful. "

She bowed her head to sell the cat miserably, and the big white cat immediately meowed to Wang Xiuzhi, as if fighting for Lin Lan.

Wang Xiuzhi was angry and funny: "you have joined snow to fight against me!" But the mouth is disgusting, which has when the mother really does not ache the child, "cannot pick the work which likes not to pick, according to your father said, in the second half of the year you will stay at home idle for a while, next year will look for a job." Anyway, Lao Lin's family doesn't really lack that wage.

Lin Lan Wen Yan sighed, got cheap also sell good: "also can be like this."In this way, Lin Lan officially idle down.

In late autumn, the temperature gradually decreases, which makes this person who doesn't have to go to work sleep until 9 or 10 a.m. every day. He doesn't even bother to have breakfast and wait for lunch. However, this kind of decadent days only lasted for two days, and was completely banned by her mother.

"I was used to you when you were still in school! Get up! People who don't work will do housework with me Wang Xiuzhi's way of arousing her daughter was not soft at all. "The porridge is warming in the pot. After eating it, we'll take off all the sheets and quilt covers at home with me. Today we'll wash them and sun them out!"

Lin Lan was dejected and ordered to work with her mother.

At this time, Dad went downstairs to see the shop, while grandma practiced dancing in the elderly center, so their mother and daughter were at home Oh, and a big white cat.

"Meow -" on the way to put the newly removed quilt cover into the balcony washing machine, Lin Lan heard the sound of snowflakes.

"Are you going out to play?" She stopped and looked down at the cat at her feet. "Then remember to come back when you eat. I'll cook cat food for you."

"Meow!" Snow's tail suddenly erect straight, it is very happy to mean.

Lin Lan also laughed: "do you think my cat food is very delicious? Better than your grandma's? Don't let her hear that. She won't do it for you in the future. "

"I have heard it." Wang Xiuzhi, who was wearing an apron, was staring at her daughter. "Let me help you do some work. Besides, I'll make snow's cat food for you in the future."

How can this work!

Lin Lan quickly changed his words: "snow fast! Grandma is angry. Please go and please her

Wang Xiuzhi thought that her daughter was just joking. She was about to stop crying and laughing and ask her to change the topic with the cat. When she saw that Xuehua really trotted towards her, and then rubbed over her to please her. Her mouth was still meowing. That was to soften her coquetry meow, which made Wang Xiuzhi lose her temper.

"You little devil." Holding the big white cat in her arms, the middle-aged woman clearly likes it, but she still dislikes it. "How can I just listen to the girl Lan Lan? She brings you back and feeds you the longest time is me."

See snow will be fascinated by his mother, Lin Lan immediately relieved, holding sheets rushed to the balcony.

Compared with Grandma's balcony full of all kinds of vegetables, Lin Lan's balcony, in addition to the two pots of vegetables that grandma Lin pointed out before, is left with cat grass specially planted for snowflakes, which has been gnawed by cats from time to time and grows there irregularly.

After putting the sheet cover into the washing machine and cleaning, my mother in the living room has finished the intimate play with snowflake. She also opened the door for snowflake to walk out.

When the cat left, Wang Xiuzhi was still a little melancholy on her face and looked at Lin Lan with a little resentment: "it's clear that you are not at home all the year round. Why is Xuehua so close to you and still listen to you now?"

"It's probably because it's too human. I know I'm its Savior. I'm different." Lin Lan was so shameless that he found a reason.

After all, I want to know that if she wants to directly say that she can understand cat language, people around her will only treat her as a joke, and then harvest a lot of things.

"Hum." Although now I have to face my mother's cold hum and white eyes.

The work has to go on. Mother and daughter go to grandma's house first, help grandma remove and replace the quilt sheets, and then get them for their own home. Since Lin Lan didn't come back long ago, she didn't have to change her room, so it was her parents' bed that moved.

Help to remove the quilt cover, Lin Lan holding on to one side will remove the sheets, see sitting there to remove the pillow cover of the mother to remove half suddenly did not move.

"What's the matter, Ma?" Lin Lan, who was waiting for the sheets, was puzzled.

Wang Xiuzhi didn't say anything. She just took off the whole pillow case and revealed the pillow core inside.

Lin Lan's pillows are latex pillows, because they don't deform when they sleep. They are very popular with the old Lin family. Anyone who has bought this kind of pillow knows that latex pillows usually have rows of holes. At this time, Lin Lan can clearly see that the holes are filled with pink pieces of paper in the pillow core removed from the pillow case.

Well Wrong. Pink notes.

Wang Xiuzhi reached out and dug out one from the hole. The carefully folded compressed paper gradually unfolded, and a 100 yuan face value of grandfather Mao appeared in front of the mother and daughter.

And there are many small holes filled with pink paper on the pillow core.

The scene was suddenly very quiet.

Lin Lan looked at her silent mother and couldn't help mourning for her father downstairs.
