Chapter 250: Spare Ribs
Hu Meili's will was not strong enough and she could not resist the corruption of money.
Once she was bribed by Lin Xiangnan's money, she immediately fell silent.
Those eye-catching and unpleasant things are still there, but Hu Meili's perspective has suddenly opened up.
"How do you use this washing machine? Please teach me. I still have a basin of clothes to wash."
In the staff compound, most people buy a TV, but no one has bought a washing machine yet.
People who live in the staff quarters all have high salaries, so they can afford it. It’s just that no one has this awareness. They think clothes can be washed by hand, so there’s no need to buy a washing machine.
Lin Xiangnan changed into a pair of comfortable furry shoes, walked to the washing machine, and taught Hu Meili how to turn the buttons. She imitated the tone of Hu Meili's cursing just now.
"Just now you were talking about 'and your washing machine...' Now you realize that my washing machine is useful."
Hu Meili touched the money in her pocket, glanced at her and said nothing.
Since Lin Xiangnan had spent the money, she would just endure it for a few days.
You can't just take the money and not do the job.
When the washing machine started to run, Hu Meili said, "Okay, go back to your room and rest with the two children. I'll go to the kitchen to cook. You must be tired after a whole morning of classes."
In fact, taking the train is quite tiring. The two children were sleeping like pigs on the bed. Lin Xiangnan and Hu Meili almost had a fight just now, but neither of them woke up.
Lin Xiangnan hasn't seen his two children for almost a month and he misses them a lot.
During lunch, Lin Xiangnan chatted with them for a long time without telling them what was going on.
"Mom, since you are here, why don't you stay a little longer? I will go ask about the situation at the nursery and send Dabao and Xiaobao to the nursery during the day." Lin Xiangnan suggested.
Not only is it too tiring to take care of two children by one person, but the children also lack playmates. It would be better to send them to daycare to play with their friends than to stay at home.
Before Hu Meili could say anything, Dabao answered first, "I want to go to the nursery! Dad made a wooden gun!"
He wants to show off to other kids.
There is no fun in playing with toys at home.
"I want to go too. I want to catch chickens." Xiaobao raised her hands to agree. She wanted to play "Eagle Catches Chicken".
"I don't know if the older children in the nursery here will bully others." Hu Meili was a little worried.
That is to say, now that Hu Meili is retired, she is very careful in taking care of her grandchildren. When she was taking care of her own children, she also let them do whatever they wanted. The older children took care of the younger ones, and they just needed to be home at mealtime. The older the children, the easier they are to take care of.
"Your filter is too strong. It's good enough that these two in our family don't bully others. They are both very savage."
After hearing what Lin Xiangnan said, the two children played with their fingers guiltily. It was obvious that they had made many mistakes when they were in the nursery at the company before.
Lin Xiangnan was extremely efficient. During the break that afternoon, she went to ask the counselor about the matter.
This kind of thing is quite easy to handle. The teacher will issue a certificate and Lin Xiangnan will go to pay the fees. She only needs to pay four yuan for childcare and take the child home for meals after class without having to pay for meals.
"You're so young, and you already have a child?" The counselor's expression was a little strange. Although Lin Xiangnan's profile showed that she was married, she was too young, looked too immature, and her personality was not very stable...
He really couldn't imagine how Lin Xiangnan would take care of a child.
"Do you want to see it?" Lin Xiangnan shared excitedly, "I'll bring it to you tomorrow. I'm not exaggerating, my two children look like they are in a magazine, so cute."
The counselor looked at her helplessly and said, "I have a full class tomorrow."
Lin Xiangnan had no way of expressing sympathy for this.
Because they, as students, also have full classes.
Not only are the classes full, but each teacher also gives a lot of homework.
This state doesn't feel like college, it's like being back in senior year of high school.
Lin Xiangnan was fine as he could slack off in class and finish the previous teacher's homework. However, Cai Meijuan and the others were busy until the lights went out every day.
But most of the students in the class really enjoy this state. They think it is a rare opportunity to keep improving, as they never had this opportunity before.
Although his life was busy and fulfilling, when Lin Xiangdong knew that Hu Meili was coming, no matter how busy he was, he would rush to see Hu Meili during his vacation.
When he arrived, Huang Xiaogang and his friends were still making trouble and asking people to vacate the house. Lin Xiangnan was standing at the door watching the fun.
"Brother, just go in. Mom is inside."
When Hu Meili saw Lin Xiangdong, she started to complain again, "You unlucky child, how come you've lost weight again? Look how well Xiaonan treats you, she's made you fair and tender, with shiny hair, and you look at yourself now, you've become so emaciated."
"It's just these two days that I'm not used to it, but it will be fine in two days."
"Xiao Nan, didn't you say you were going to buy groceries?" Hu Meili asked.
"No, I have something to do. Let's eat pork ribs for lunch. They're in the refrigerator." Lin Xiangnan still stood at the door watching the fun.
When Lin Xiangdong heard the word "refrigerator", he secretly glanced at Hu Meili's face.
Hu Meili looked normal, but Dabao and Xiaobao insisted on getting Gu Zhenjun.
"Grandma, where is Sixth Uncle?"
"Grandma, can you please go pick up Uncle Six? He's lost."
Gu Zhenjun raised the child from childhood to adulthood, so naturally they had a special bond. Lin Xiangdong took the initiative to say, "Mom, take the child to pick up Zhenjun. I'll cook."
As he opened the refrigerator and took out the ribs, he asked, "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
Dabao, Xiaobao and Lin Xiangnan each shouted "braised spare ribs", "sweet and sour spare ribs" and "spare rib soup".
"You three are troublemakers. Xiangdong, don't worry about them, just focus on the pork rib soup."
Lin Xiangnan said indifferently: "Okay, okay, whatever."
Hu Meili took her child out to pick up Gu Zhenjun and asked Lin Xiangnan, "Are you going?"
"I have something to do later." Lin Xiangnan refused.
As soon as Hu Meili left and Huang Xiaogang and the others finished their fuss, Lin Xiangnan quickly followed them and turned to another alley to plot.
"One family found a place to live and moved out today. There are four families who are still holding out and want to raise the price. I told them that the last family to move out has no money to take."
Huang Xiaogang said: "After one family moves out, we will move in with two people. It will give them a little deterrence."
It's quite scary when bad guys live in your own yard and do something in the middle of the night.
"That's a good idea." Lin Xiangnan said nonchalantly, "If someone really refuses to leave, I'll renovate the house so that he can't live there either."
Hu Meili had already arrived, but Lin Xiangnan did not urge them to move. Huang Xiaogang and his team usually did their own private work and came to urge them to move every other day. After all, it takes time for them to find a house.
The yard was too shabby, and Lin Xiangnan was not in a hurry to live there, so he planned to renovate it.
By the time she finished mumbling outside, it was time for dinner when she got home. There was a pot of pork ribs soup on the table, as well as a serving of braised pork ribs and sweet and sour pork ribs. Lin Xiangdong cooked all the dishes they ordered.
Lin Xiangnan stood at the table and sighed, "Big brother's cooking skills are not very good, but he has a good temper."
