Chapter 180 Seeing the signal, Xu Heye entered the house without saying hello, carrying...
Xu Heye entered the house without saying hello and went into the study carrying her things.
Pang Qiao and Pang Wei followed her, calling out "Uncle" and "Aunt", "Uncle Qiang" and "Aunt Qiang", then they also followed Xu Heye and went into her room.
Pang Wei entered the room, kicked his feet left and right, took off his shoes, and was about to jump on the bed. Pang Qiao saw him and quickly grabbed him.
"Pang Wei, don't jump on the bed."
Pang Wei: “Why?”
"How dare you ask why?" Pang Qiao snorted coldly, "Look at your clothes, they're so dirty. The greasy liquid from the dumplings we ate this morning is still on them!"
"It's so dirty, and you jump on my cousin's bed? Do you think this is your doghouse? You can sleep in it no matter how dirty it is. How are Sister Heye and I going to sleep at night if you make the bed dirty?"
Pang Wei glanced down at the front of his cotton-padded jacket. "It looks a little dirty."
He couldn't throw himself on the bed, so he rolled his eyes and climbed up to the bay window. It was padded with a thick woolen cushion, very soft. Sitting on it, eating snacks and basking in the sun was very comfortable.
Seeing this, Pang Qiao also climbed onto the bay window.
"Move out a little and give me some space."
Pang Wei moved slightly, then refused to give up his seat: "How big of a seat do you want for yourself? You're still squeezing me! If you keep squeezing me, I'll fall off the building."
"Don't worry, you won't fall. There are protective windows and glass to stop it!"
"Then I'm scared. It's too close to the outside. I feel uneasy when I see it."
"Then let's switch seats. I'll sit outside where the view and light are better."
After a lot of noise, the brother and sister finally settled themselves down.
Xu Heye smiled and waited for the two to calm down before climbing to the other side, closing her eyes, basking in the sun and enjoying this rare leisure time.
She and Pang Qiao were both in their third year of high school. They had their holiday before the New Year later than other students. After the holiday, it was the peak season for clothing sales at the end of the year. The store was too busy and it was not cost-effective to hire people on a temporary basis. So both of them went to the store to help and were busy until it closed on New Year's Eve.
After settling the accounts, everyone went back home. Yesterday was New Year's Eve, and I was busy at home again. This morning I went to visit relatives to wish them a happy new year. Now is the time for me to truly relax.
Pang Qiao and Pang Wei made a lot of noise for a while, then calmed down and quietly enjoyed the bright winter sun outside the house.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door. Xu Heye opened her eyes and said, "Come in."
Dong Taohua pushed open the door and walked in. Xu Heye asked, "Are they all gone?"
Dong Taohua nodded and said, "Let's go."
Xu Heye moved outwards to make room for Dong Taohua. Dong Taohua sat down sideways and then said, "Heye, I want to help your uncle."
Fearing Xu Heye would be angry, Dong Taohua quickly explained, "Your uncle has had a really hard time these past two years. I couldn't bear to see how miserable he is, so I wanted to find them a job."
"But don't worry, I definitely won't let them into your factory or shop. Mom knows her limits and won't cause any trouble for you. I'm thinking that your factory also makes fabrics and has some partner garment factories. Can you find them a job there? A small private factory would be fine too, so they can earn their living with their own hands."
Xu Heye felt a little sad when she saw Dong Taohua explaining carefully.
"Mom, you don't have to explain so much to me." Xu Heye held Dong Taohua's hand, which was rough and warm. She said seriously, "Mom, I won't forgive my uncle. But that doesn't mean you have to have no contact with him forever."
"You are my mother, not my appendage. You have the right to decide whether to reconcile with your uncle and the others."
Xu Heye felt a little sad. Dong Taohua was a decisive person. She made decisions very quickly. As long as she was determined to do something, she would never regret it no matter whether the result was right or wrong.
But Xu Heye suddenly discovered that her mother, who had been so decisive, had unconsciously begun to make decisions based on her expression.
This phenomenon seemed to have started slowly after Dong Taohua took unpaid leave and returned to Hucheng to become a housewife dedicated to taking care of her.
After thinking for a while, Xu Heye said, "Mom, do you want to go to the mall to work and take care of the accounts?"
"I'm in charge of the accounts? Isn't it your aunt who's in charge of the accounts?"
"Yes, but my aunt has long told me that she wants to find another accountant to separate the shop accounts. She is now busy with factory affairs, managing the factory accounts and the accounts of nine shops. Although she has several accounting assistants, she is still very busy.
I just need to hand over the shop's accounts to someone I trust, so I haven't been able to split them up yet."
"Now that I think about it, we're all blind to what's happening. Aren't you, Mom, a ready-made candidate?" Xu Heye said, "If you take care of the accounts, who else would be worried?"
Dong Taohua's eyes lit up, but she hesitated again, "But I don't know how to manage the accounts. Can you let me manage it?"
"Yes." Xu Heye was very sure. "Of course, Mom, didn't my aunt also do accounting before she took over the account? She also learned and fumbled her way around it."
"You, too. You can definitely find a night school to further your studies. Hucheng's education industry is developing very quickly. If you find it inconvenient to go to night school, we can also pay to find a teacher to provide you with one-on-one tutoring."
Dong Taohua is still young, in her early forties, and is at the age of striving. Xu Heye feels it is a pity to let her stay at home, taking care of housework and taking care of her three meals a day.
