"Okay, we'll make the big bed when spring comes."
"Okay, I don't need to go to the clothing store anymore. I'll calculate Jiu Jiu's salary."
"Honey, should I get you the calculator?"
"Okay, Jiu Jiu gets overtime pay too."
Zhuang Zhimeng took the calculator and started pressing the keys.
Hao Jiuhe's salary is calculated by the hour, at 50 cents per hour, and is only paid on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays.
It's about seven hours a day, and it costs four yuan for a full day.
Overtime pay is 30 cents per hour.
It was a total of 35 days, and with overtime pay, it came to 150 yuan.
An Qingbai also curiously came over and hugged his wife to look at the calculator.
"Wow, honey, the salary you give me is quite high."
"Yes, but Xiazi and I earn more money, so I don't think it's necessary to be stingy."
“Jiu Jiu is one of our own, so we gave it to her. It would be too much to ask of others.”
"I know, outsiders definitely don't get this treatment. They get at most three cents an hour."
"Sanmao is alright, two yuan a day, sixteen yuan for eight days, which is basically the same as an apprentice's wage."
"This is the pay for hourly workers, but we don't plan to hire any more people for the time being."
"You and Yanxia should think it over. If you're really too busy, then you can consider it."
"Okay, honey, call Jiu Jiu over, I'll wake the kids up."
"good."
An Qingbai didn't leave immediately after saying that, but instead hugged his wife and kissed her.
After their passionate kiss ended, An Qingbai left the room.
The children have already started rubbing their eyes.
Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and patted each of the children on the shoulder.
"Get up, everyone. We're going back to the compound today to celebrate Great-Grandma's birthday."
Fatty opened his eyes and asked.
"Mom, what's the date today?"
It's the 25th of the twelfth lunar month.
"Does Great-Grandma eat birthday cake like we do on our birthdays?"
"Yeah, didn't you guys celebrate your birthdays together last month?"
Mom and Dad have prepared a cake and gifts for you.
Of course, we also have cake for my great-grandmother's birthday.
However, this time is a bit special; it's my great-grandmother's 70th birthday, and she'll be eating longevity noodles.
Hao Jiuhe followed his brother-in-law in and, upon hearing this, immediately asked.
"Cousin, should I come over for dinner too?"
“Let’s go together. Not just you, my in-laws will go too, it’ll be fun together.”
"You mean the whole family is going?"
“That’s right, Grandpa has already made arrangements and prepared a lot of ingredients.”
"Okay, I understand."
Zhuang Zhimeng handed her salary to her cousin.
"Here's the money, it's yesterday's salary. We'll settle accounts monthly from now on."
"Hehe, I can earn this much money myself."
An Qingbai reminded his cousin while helping the children get dressed.
"Don't tell anyone how much money you made when you get out there."
Your cousin's salary is really high; it's equivalent to the salary of an eighth-grade skilled worker.
“Brother-in-law, I understand. I’m not stupid. It’s obvious that my cousin is taking care of me.”
Zhuang Zhimeng stood up.
"Alright, Jiu Jiu, go back and get yourself ready. You'll be there after breakfast."
"Okay, I'll get right to it."
An Qingbai laughed.
"How long has it been? Jiu Jiu speaks fluent Beijing dialect now."
"Haha, he's used to being with us all the time."
People feel comfortable speaking Beijing dialect in the shop.
"I wonder what language his girlfriend used when she talked to him?"
“Jiu Jiu Zhen said that he and Lucy are more used to communicating in German.”
"What country is Lucy from?"
"Lucys is German."
She is the distant cousin of Jiu Jiu's great-grandfather's granddaughter.
Such a complicated relationship?
"Yes, we're related anyway."
"Was it because Jiu Jiu's great-grandfather is rich that they went there?"
"It's hard to say, but I guess that's part of the reason."
Large families are very complicated.
An Qingbai shook his head.
"This is too much trouble. Luckily, it has nothing to do with us."
"Yes, I want to eat jianbing guozi. Husband, buy a few sets."
"Okay, would you like anything else to drink, honey?"
Sweet soy milk.
"OK."
DouDou shouted together.
"Uncle, we want some soy milk."
Fatty and Nao Nao both pouted.
"We don't want soy milk, it tastes awful. We want tofu pudding instead."
An Qingbai smiled.
"Haha, our son is just like us, neither of them likes to drink soy milk."
"Haha, honey, hurry up and go. There are all sorts of requests, and you'll have to wait a while."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
An Qingbai and Hao Jiuhe went to buy breakfast together, and everyone got some.
After breakfast, the whole family went to the military compound.
That day, An Tanxiao and Shi Meiling both planned to open the teahouse again in the afternoon.
Zhuang Zhimeng was pleasantly surprised to find that her aunts had returned, and her maternal aunt had also rushed back.
"Aunt, Aunt, Aunt, you actually came back?"
Zhuang Ruofang laughed.
"It's your grandma's 70th birthday, we definitely have to come back."
Your aunt is leaving tomorrow and won't be able to spend the Lunar New Year at home.
Your uncle is currently very busy, but your aunt represents him.
My sister-in-law will go back after the New Year.
Bian Peirong looked at her niece.
"Ya Ya, I'm planning to stay with you for a few days. Would you be welcome?"
"Welcome, Auntie, you're welcome to come anytime."
There are so many kids there, it's incredibly lively.
