Chapter 11 Organizing
The shoes were quite suitable, but her clothes... Lu Lihong looked at her and shook her head. The young girl, who was obviously seventeen or eighteen years old, looked pessimistic.

Yan Ling, who spoke softly, said, "I'll boil the hot water first, and then you can take a bath. I'll find you some clean clothes later."

Xu Yanling agreed meekly. She also wanted to do something to help, but it was a bit redundant to do anything by herself when she came to someone else's house for the first time, and it might be a disservice.

Xu Yanling sat there without moving. Chi Tianliang came over and brought a plate of freshly cut watermelon. The bright red flesh of the melon looks very refreshing and relieves the heat.

Chi Tianliang took a piece of watermelon to Yan Ling and said with a smile on his face: "It's hot, eat a piece of watermelon to cool down."

Xu Yanling took it and said thank you.

Chi Tianliang sat down after turning on the TV.

This is a TV set no bigger than 19 inches, but in color. An advertisement was playing on the TV. It was an advertisement for selling soda drinks. Yan Ling took a look and thought that the Xu family in the village didn't even have electricity, while the city already had color TV. The gap was so big that it felt like they were not from the same era.

"Zhengrong! Turn off the cassette recorder for me so that I can do my homework!" Chi Tianliang suddenly stood up and shouted toward a room. As soon as he roared, the singing in the room stopped immediately.

Xu Yanling was surprised when Chi Tianliang turned around and saw Yan Ling. He smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. I yelled at Zhengrong to do his homework. He is disobedient and needs to be beaten before he is willing to work hard." After finishing speaking, Chi Tianliang secretly thought that Yan Ling was a fool. Would a fool understand what he was talking about? Chi Tianliang suddenly felt that he was talking to himself, so he smiled to ease the embarrassment.

After the commercials on the TV ended, the sports program started to play, and the current one was a table tennis match. Xu Yanling finished eating the watermelon quietly. Chi Tianliang watched TV for a while. He suddenly turned around and asked, "How many brothers and sisters are there in your family?"

"There's a brother at the top and a sister at the bottom." Yan Ling said, and Xu Jiantao and Xu Yanchun appeared in her mind. She didn't have a good impression of them. The memories that remain in my mind are not good memories either. She didn't want to think about it.

Chi Tianliang saw that she spoke eloquently and that communication was not as difficult as he imagined. He then asked, "How old is my sister? Is she studying?"

Yan Ling said: "Go to elementary school."

That's not bad, he thought to himself, at least the family will still send their children to school. If the girl in front of me had no problem with her mind, she might be able to enter the school.

Lu Lihong came over after a while. She pulled Yan Ling and said, "Let's go take a shower."

There was no girl at home, so Lu Lihong had no choice but to find a set of clothes that were too small for her and not too old-fashioned.

"Stand still first, I'll help you wash your hair." Lu Lihong said, ready to do it herself.

Xu Yanling felt that since she was sensible, the people next to her at the barber shop had never done anything to help her. Lu Lihong was too enthusiastic, so she hurriedly said: "Auntie, I can come by myself."

"Can you do it on your own?" Lu Lihong was a little unsure, but then she thought that she was such a big girl, so she was probably embarrassed, so she didn't force her: "If you need anything, just call me, I'll be outside."
