Chapter 13 The Poor King Zhou

After lunch, I felt a little sleepy after sitting in class in the afternoon. After two o'clock, it was the time for class, and there were fewer students coming to borrow books. Hu Wenqiong asked Lin Chaoyang to go upstairs to walk around with several other teachers to say hello, and to get familiar with the upstairs.
Library.
Lin Chaoyang went upstairs to greet his colleagues. Everyone was very happy to see him.
There is usually one person stationed on each floor of the library's closed-shelf bookshelf, which inevitably gets boring after a long period of time. Finally, there is someone to chat with. Zheng Tongjiang in the first-floor library and Tu Mansheng in the second-floor library simply won't let him go.
When he reached the sixth floor, Lin Chaoyang took a breath and couldn't help complaining: Yanda was willing to install an elevator for books, but was reluctant to install an elevator for employees.
Stationed on the sixth floor is lesbian Du Rong, who even wears a mask in the library. She is a worker, peasant, and soldier student. She graduated from the Department of Library Science at Yanda University last year and was assigned to the library.
The library science department and the library are the corresponding majors and units. The head of the library science department at Yanda usually also serves as the director of the library.
Du Rong felt particularly cordial when she saw Lin Chaoyang. Both of them were young people. Du Rong had just graduated and had been stationed in the empty library all year round, so she couldn't help but talk freely when she saw Lin Chaoyang.
"The air conditioner doesn't work at all, and it's too hot when I open the windows."
"The lift broke down again last week and was just repaired the day before yesterday. It has only been used for less than three years."
"It's okay during the summer vacation. Just hope that this thing doesn't break after school starts. Otherwise, you have to climb dozens of stairs a day and you won't be able to lift your legs when you get home."
If Lin Chaoyang was an unmarried young man, and the young and beautiful Du Rong complained, he might become a hot-blooded thunder feng and help solve the problem.
It's a pity that he is a married man and he just wants to be a salty fish.
So after listening to Du Rong's complaints, Lin Chaoyang just listened with a smile and responded with a few words from time to time to show respect.
Du Rong's words were very dense, and she was obviously a straight person.
For a person like her, as long as you listen to her, even if you let her do all the work, it will be fine.
While chatting, Lin Chaoyang asked Du Rong some business questions. She had a very good impression of Lin Chaoyang and answered all questions, which benefited Lin Chaoyang a lot.
"It's been almost an hour since I came up here. I have to go back."
Lin Chaoyang came down from the sixth floor and took all the work on himself, allowing Hu Wenqiong to have time to go out and walk around.
Although I want to be a salty fish, I still have to pay attention to my interpersonal relationships with my colleagues when I first come to the workplace. It won’t be too late to settle down after I get to know each other better.
When it was almost time to get off work, Lin Chaoyang asked Hu Wenqiong about applying for a library card.
"You young people are so enthusiastic about learning that you want to get a library card on your first day at work."
Hu Wenqiong praised Lin Chaoyang with a smile, and then directed him to the main station.
Lin Chaoyang is now considered a faculty member of Yanda. It is certainly not a problem to apply for a library card. He paid a deposit of 20 yuan and got the library card.
The work of the closed-shelf library is relatively leisurely when students are in class, which is a good time to read.
Five o'clock in the afternoon is the off-duty time, but it is not the closing time. The library will not close until nine o'clock in the evening to facilitate students to read and study here. Every day, some staff will be left on duty in the library.
Lin Chaoyang had just arrived and it was not his turn to be on duty yet.
When he left the library, he happened to meet the director Xie Daoyuan who was also off work.
"Director!" Lin Chaoyang greeted Xie Daoyuan.
Xie Daoyuan nodded, "Are you getting used to your first day at work?"
Lin Chaoyang only met Xie Daoyuan once when going through work procedures and knew that he had a good relationship with Tao's father.
“The library has a strong learning atmosphere and the teachers are very easy to get along with. It’s a great place.”
Xie Daoyuan's eyes glanced at the book held under Lin Chaoyang's arm, which Lin Chaoyang had just borrowed from the library, and there was some appreciation in his eyes.
"Just get used to it. You young people have unlimited energy, so you can't delay your work, and you have to keep up with your studies."
"That's what you said."
Returning home with the sunset, Tao's father had just gotten off work. He saw Lin Chaoyang coming back with a book and asked: "Borrowed book?"
"Well, I have been arranged to go to the front desk of the closed library library. The students are quite free during class and read books if they have nothing to do." Lin Chaoyang said.
Father Tao nodded slightly, academic qualifications didn't mean anything, loving learning was more important.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Lin Chaoyang is just pretending, but Tao Fu feels that no one is born to love learning, and often pretending is the beginning of learning.
Dinner was served at 6:30 in the evening, and the three Tao brothers and sisters came back one after another.
At the dinner table, Tao's mother Du Ruohui suddenly said: "Yushu, you used to go to school alone, and if you didn't pay the food fee to the family, you wouldn't pay it. Now that you two are eating at home, you have to pay the food fee."
When Mrs. Tao said this, everyone at the table turned their eyes to Lin Chaoyang and his wife.
Tao Yushu said dissatisfied: "I'm still a student, why should I pay for food? If I pay, then Yumo has to pay too!"
Tao Yumo immediately shouted, "Sister, you have subsidies but I don't!"
She was very dissatisfied with her sister's misfortune, and her eyebrows stood up when she spoke.
"If Yu Mo went to college and still ate at home, he would still have to pay."
Tao's mother sealed off Tao Yushu's room for sophistry with just one sentence. A bit of pain flashed in her eyes, "How much do you have to pay?"
"It's 15 yuan a month per person."
"It's too expensive. We just have two meals at home, and the morning meal didn't even have an egg."
Tao's mother said angrily: "Firewood, rice, oil and salt are not money? Buying and cooking vegetables does not take effort? Do you think I am an old lady?"
Tao Yushu didn't listen to his mother's words, so he calculated by himself: "Fifteen yuan is equivalent to fifty cents a day, which is two meals, and one meal is twenty-five cents. I can eat meat for two meals at school, but not even one meal a day at home."
Meaty."
Her little abacus clicked loudly, making Tao's mother glare angrily, "Then you can eat it at school!"
Lin Chaoyang saw that the mother and daughter were not giving in to each other, so he became a peacemaker and whispered to Tao Yushu: "Just hand it over, mom and sister-in-law have a hard time cooking."
Tao Yushu glared at him, with the same expression as Tao's mother.
Lin Chaoyang ignored her and said to Tao's mother: "Mom, after dinner, I will give you this month's food expenses first."
Tao Mu nodded with satisfaction.
Tao Yushu reached out under the dining table and pinched Lin Chaoyang's thigh. The pain made him grin and pretend that nothing happened.
When he returned to the house after dinner, Tao Yushu was still angry, like a cat with a bad temper, and said, "You are the only one who is rich! You are the only one who is generous!"
"I'm doing this for the sake of family harmony!" Lin Chaoyang sat on the edge of the bed, holding Tao Yushu's hand and advising: "We get state subsidies for meals at school, but not for meals at home. Besides, even if we don't think about mom and
Thanks to sister-in-law's hard work, we paid the money and the food at home can be better. Don't you feel satisfied with it?"
Tao Yushu took out his hand and said, "You are a good person."
The tone is still harsh, but the attitude has softened.
"It's not that I want to be a good person. It's hard for me to be in this family. Your mother doesn't like me. If I continue to be a freeloader, will she make me suffer even more in the future?"
Lin Chaoyang came up with a cruel trick, and Tao Yushu couldn't sit still. "It's not as exaggerated as you said. Isn't it still me?"
As soon as she said this, she didn't know what she thought of and burst into laughter.
"Are our roles reversed?"
The smile on Lin Chaoyang's face was slightly doting, "It doesn't matter if it's good or bad, as long as you don't get angry."
Hearing his words, Tao Yushu's face brightened, "That's pretty much it."
Lin Chaoyang was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Tao Yushu rolled his eyes and asked, "How much money do you have left?"
Lin Chaoyang's nerves suddenly became tense, "It's not much money."
“How much money is there without much money?”
Seeing Lin Chaoyang hesitating, Tao Yushu pressed him harder, and even resorted to tricks, holding his arms in front of his chest and rubbing him from left to right.
In the end, Lin Chaoyang could not resist the temptation of beauty, and handed over all the 216 yuan and 30 cents in his pocket to the public.
He felt that he would have been a traitor during the Anti-Japanese War.
"Didn't Mom give you five hundred before leaving? Mom also gave you two hundred when I left at the beginning of the year, and I also gave you one hundred."
Tao Yushu counted the money like a money addict and replied: "I bought so many things when I went back, do you think it's not money?"
All those things you spend on sex are my money?
But he also knew that for the things Tao Yushu brought back, the money he gave might not be enough.
After counting the money, Tao Yushu put the money into her own treasury with a smile. Perhaps she realized that it was a bit unkind to fish for nothing this time. She comforted: "We are a husband and wife, it doesn't matter who keeps the money?"
"Yes, your money is your money, and my money is also your money."
Listening to Lin Chaoyang's complaints, she resorted to the honey trap again, wrapping her arms around his neck and whispering.
Lin Chaoyang felt that this girl must have been Daji in her previous life, causing harm to the country and the people.
Chapter completed!
