223 Saved the Galaxy
In order to have dinner with Gu Jingzhou, Jiang Baohai turned down his original social engagements and had a rare day of free time at home.
The couple planned to sleep together until they woke up naturally, but Gao Qinghe couldn't hold on and woke up early because he was hungry.
I got up and ate something, then wanted to go back to sleep, but I felt refreshed.
I was walking in the yard to digest my food when the phone rang.
Jiang's mother picked up the phone. It was for Gao Qinghe, so she asked her to answer it.
It was Lu Gaoming's secretary Xiao Zhang who called and said that the handmade materials would be delivered to her home soon.
I had just hung up the phone when I heard the sound of a car approaching.
Normally, the only vans soliciting passengers would pass through the village, and delivery trucks were rare.
The vans that pick up passengers don't come at this time.
Jiang's mother was just curious about where the car came from when she saw Gao Qinghe walk to the gate of the yard and ask someone to carry two large cardboard boxes in.
"Just put it by the hall door, thank you."
Gao Qinghe smiled and sent the person away before closing the door and walking back.
Jiang's mother stood at the door of the hall, holding a vegetable basin in her hand, looking at the two large cardboard boxes curiously.
"What did you buy again?" She thought it was something Gao Qinghe bought from the city.
In the past few months, Jiang's mother has become accustomed to her daughter-in-law's lavish spending.
Now that I know Gao Qinghe can make a lot of money himself, I have no right to say anything.
But sometimes I still feel bad about the money and say a few sad words to save money.
Gao Qinghe motioned her mother-in-law to put the dish basin down first. "I didn't buy this. These are materials sent from the button factory."
When Jiang's mother put down the vegetable bowl, she saw Gao Qinghe opening two large cardboard boxes, revealing a large number of button decorative accessories packed in nylon bags.
Colorful and varied, everything is available.
Gao Qinghe hooked a small stool with his foot and sat down in front of the box. "Look, this is an ordinary button, this is a decorative flower, and this is adhesive. Apply this adhesive on the button surface, then press the decorative flower in the middle. Don't let go and count to five seconds before releasing..."
Gao Qinghe quickly demonstrated to her mother-in-law how to make decorative buckles.
Some are glued together, some are wrapped with thin iron wire, and some are hammered together with metal buckles.
Anyway, anyone with normal IQ and some hands-on ability can easily do the job.
The only requirement is patience.
After demonstrating everything, Gao Qinghe clapped his hands and stood up, signaling Jiang's mother to try it herself.
Jiang's mother hadn't figured out why she had to do this. She learned it in a confused manner and made a few decorative buttons according to Gao Qinghe's instructions in a confused manner.
Gao Qinghe picked it up and checked it. It was all done very well and didn't take much time.
I immediately looked at my mother-in-law with satisfaction and said, "Mom, I knew this job was perfect for you. No one else could make such a perfect decorative buckle the first time!"
Jiang's mother asked confusedly, "Work? What kind of work? Whose job?"
"Your job! The small ones are one centimeter each, and the more complicated ones are three centimeters and five centimeters. You are not skilled now, but once you become proficient, it will not be a problem to make two or three hundred of them in your free day."
Gao Qinghe told her mother-in-law in a matter-of-fact manner, "As a family member of a factory worker, you can steadily earn ten yuan a month. If you're particularly diligent, you can even earn twenty yuan a month."
Jiang's mother asked in surprise, "You can earn twenty bucks a month just by gluing buttons?"
Gao Qinghe nodded heavily: "Of course!"
"Made it for me?" Jiang's mother confirmed again.
Gao Qinghe nodded again: "Yes, I worked hard to find you this easy and simple job that you can do at home."
Jiang's mother was stunned.
Gao Qinghe raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, "Mom?"
Jiang's mother slowly raised her head to look at her, and asked nervously, "Do you think I don't make money?"
Gao Qinghe held his forehead and fell on the sofa. He was too lazy to explain all this nonsense to her and said bluntly:
"If you're not happy with this, I'll have your son send the materials back later."
"Don't, don't!" Jiang's mother subconsciously stopped him, although she didn't know why she was stopping him.
Maybe, perhaps, the temptation of earning twenty dollars a month is too hard to resist!
Instead of washing the vegetables, Jiang's mother squatted in front of the box and began to look through the button styles inside, thinking.
It would probably take only ten days to make two large boxes like these at a rate of 200 per day.
“Once this is done, how do we deliver it?”
Thinking about the fact that she had to pay 50 cents for the delivery, which was one dollar for a round trip, Jiang's mother felt the pain.
Gao Qinghe pointed to the rarely used bicycle in the yard and said, "Ride it yourself. I've agreed with Director Lu that this is the first delivery. From now on, you can pick up and deliver the goods yourself. I'll keep a record of the accounts and settle them monthly."
Jiang's mother was embarrassed: "I don't know how to ride that bicycle..."
Gao Qinghe: "If you don't know how to do it, then learn!"
Just now I have time to pull up my mother-in-law who is squatting in front of the box.
"Come on, I'll take you for a couple of laps to get a feel for it. Learning to ride a bike is easy. You can ride a complicated sewing machine, so why can't you ride a bike?"
Gao Qinghe deliberately provoked Jiang's mother, who was panicked and hesitant, but did not dare to say that she could not do it.
Gao Qinghe pushed the car in front of her mother-in-law and said, "Look, our yard is big and wide. As long as you go slowly, you won't fall."
"Even if I fall, I won't be seriously injured. At most I'll be bedridden for three to five days with scrapes."
The first sentence sounds like something a human being would say.
Jiang's mother felt that the latter sentence did not need to be said.
It felt like she was being forced into something, and Jiang's mother hesitated and pressed down on the bicycle seat before she could even say no.
Gao Qinghe was not doing it recklessly. The first thing to learn when learning to ride a bicycle was not to learn balance, but to build up courage.
First of all, you must not be afraid of falling, and you also need to know how to avoid falling.
Even if it means abandoning the car and running away, it's fine.
When Jiang Baohai came out of the bedroom after a good sleep and stretched himself, he heard his mother's various screams of "Ouch!" coming from the yard.
I thought my wife had fallen, so I rushed out of the hall and found her standing under the eaves.
I looked up and saw a figure on a bicycle passing by. Who else could it be but his mother?
"Are you awake?" Gao Qinghe glanced at her husband jokingly. He slept worse than a pig.
Jiang Baohai didn't even bother to appreciate his wife's teasing look.
His face was full of disbelief.
He's riding a fucking bike?
"How did you convince her?" Jiang Baohai asked in a low voice.
Gao Qinghe immediately raised his hand and demonstrated it to him while clapping.
"Mom, you're amazing!"
"Yes, yes, that's right. You're simply the smartest mother-in-law in Zhao Village!"
"Oh, it's a little shaky. It's okay. I did well just now. Let's do it again... Don't worry about other people's opinions, even if it's your son. Let's just ride our own bike."
"Mom, if you keep practicing like this, you won't even be able to catch up with me!"
With Gao Qinghe's praise and encouragement, Jiang's mother gradually lost herself and immersed herself in the joy of mastering cycling.
Jiang Baohai looked at his mother who was riding crookedly in the yard, and then looked at his lover who was patiently encouraging him.
I thought to myself, I must have saved the Milky Way in my previous life.
Otherwise, how could he marry such a good wife?
