Chapter 866 Taking the Little Princess Home
My uncle spoke to my aunt in such a harsh tone, which was rare. My aunt's face changed immediately, and tears appeared in her eyes. She said aggrievedly, "Shuyi, I am doing this for your and the two children's sake. How can you be so loud to me~"
I was stunned. Is this the ultimate green tea physique? A loud voice can activate the tear glands. She really outshines Deng Sisi. No wonder my uncle is so obsessed with her.
My mother's mouth opened slightly, obviously she was also surprised.
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become tense, my mother quickly tried to smooth things over: "Shuyi, Lizhen is also part of your family.
Mengmeng, you only have this one uncle, so if you can help, please help your uncle."
I took a deep breath and was about to speak when my cell phone suddenly rang.
It was a message from Xiao Shiqiu: [When will you be back? I miss you.]
I looked at the message, raised my head and smiled at my aunt, "How about this, let my uncle send me a resume, and I'll ask Qiu if there's any position suitable for my uncle in their company recently, but I can't guarantee it will be successful.
If you want a job where you can just start without a resume, there really isn't one at STG, not even security or cleaning."
My aunt's expression softened slightly, but she still muttered, "Alright then, seriously, what more do you want from your own family..."
Her uncle interrupted her, "Okay, I'll send it to you when I get back. I'm really sorry to bother you, Mengmeng. No matter whether it works or not, your uncle won't blame you.
It's not right to let you, a child who hasn't even graduated yet, worry about your uncle's work."
Seeing my uncle say this, my aunt changed her attitude. She smiled gently again and picked up a piece of fish for me affectionately. "Here, try this grouper. The meat is very tender."
I lowered my head and replied to Xiao Shiqiu: [My aunt wants my uncle to join STG. Can you arrange an interview?
My uncle studied computer science and previously worked in technical development at Open Sesame.
By the way, I might come back tomorrow.]
Xiao Shiqiu quickly replied: "I can arrange an interview for a technical position, but I have to follow the normal process. Please send me your uncle's resume."
I handed the phone to my uncle: [Aqiu said he can arrange an interview, but he needs to look at your resume first.]
My uncle was a little embarrassed, rubbing his hands and saying, "Oh, oh, okay, I'll post it when I get back. Thank Xiao Xiao for me."
The meal was a complete success, but when it came time to pay the bill, I clearly saw the corners of my mother's mouth twitch. The bill must have exceeded her expectations.
Of course she didn't say anything, she just frowned and calmly paid the bill.
As they walked out of the restaurant, my aunt held my uncle's arm.
Then I heard her whisper, "How come you didn't know anything about Mengmeng's boyfriend when you came to the engagement party last time? You didn't even ask what he did for a living."
My uncle answered innocently, "I just went there to have a meal, and no one at the scene introduced his workplace."
My aunt rolled her eyes at him and asked, "So you knew he was rich?"
"Yes, you can tell by just looking at the layout and the food on the table." My uncle said it with confidence.
I don't know how much a table costs, but if today's dishes cost three or four thousand, then the dishes that day must be around thirty or forty thousand."
My aunt suddenly thought of something, but she took two quick steps to my side and took my arm affectionately: "Mengmeng, let's go to City A tomorrow. Is Xiao Xiao free to have dinner together? I want to thank him in person."
Xiao Xiao? I felt like laughing. She probably didn’t know that my Lao Xiao was one year older than her.
I calmly pulled my hand out and fished out the car keys from my bag. "I'm not sure what his plans are for tomorrow, so I'll ask him later."
My aunt was obviously disappointed, but she quickly cheered up: "Okay, that's fine. Remember to ask him."
When I got home, I went back to my room to change into home clothes. My mother was still chatting with my aunt in the living room on the first floor.
My uncle quickly sent me the resume, and I immediately gave it to Xiao Shiqiu, telling him that I planned to go back tomorrow.
After a long while, Xiao Shiqiu replied with a single word: [OK]
He didn't even add a punctuation mark. I wrinkled my nose. I wonder what this guy is busy with.
After changing my clothes, I saw that it was still early and it would be inappropriate to close the door and go to sleep, so I went downstairs and sat down to listen to them chatting.
Of course, I was mainly eating fruit and browsing my phone on the side, my uncle was listening quietly, and my aunt and my mother were chatting animatedly.
Suddenly received a message from Xiao Shiqiu: [Open the door].
I was stunned for a moment, then my heart suddenly skipped a beat, and then I almost jumped up and rushed to the door.
"What's wrong? Mengmeng~ No one rang the doorbell." My mother asked behind me.
I didn't have time to answer, I rushed to the door and opened it, and saw Xiao Shiqiu wearing a light blue shirt with a slightly open collar, and a light beige linen suit jacket on the outside.
His sleeves were rolled up, revealing a section of his forearm, and on his wrist was a Patek Philippe white ceramic watch, the dial of which was the same color as his shirt.
What surprised me was that he was holding a creative bouquet of tassel flowers that has been very popular online recently.
There was a large blue hydrangea in the middle of the bouquet, the same color as his shirt.
The corners of my mouth couldn't be suppressed. This scheming man, did he have someone specially design his look today? He doesn't look like he's almost 40 years old.
I took the bouquet from his hand and smiled until my eyes narrowed. "Why did you come here so suddenly?"
He chuckled softly, stretched out his long arms and hugged me in his arms, "I missed you, so I came to take my little princess home."
I heard my aunt's exaggerated exclamation from behind: "Oh! This is Xiao Xiao, right?"
I looked back and saw that my aunt was already standing at the entrance, staring at Xiao Shiqiu with a smile on her face.
To be honest, my mother's family has good genes, and the three of us, my siblings, are all good-looking.
But even though she was used to seeing my uncle's handsome face, my aunt was still inevitably amazed when she saw Xiao Shiqiu.
My uncle is the same age as Xiao Shiqiu, but my uncle is not as good at taking care of himself as Xiao Shiqiu. He has gained a little weight and looks a few years older than Xiao Shiqiu.
Especially since he was wearing light-colored clothes today, he looked particularly young.
Xiao Shiqiu nodded slightly and greeted politely: "This is my aunt, right? Hello, you look really young."
My aunt immediately smiled so much that her eyebrows were not visible. She quickly walked over and shook Xiao Shiqiu's hand enthusiastically, looking him up and down: "Oh, what a handsome man! Mengmeng is so lucky!"
Xiao Shiqiu calmly let her look at him, a gentle smile on his face the whole time: "You're too kind. It's my blessing to meet Mengmeng."
My mother also came over and greeted with a smile: "Shiqiu is here, come in and sit down."
