346 Fishing Lao Wang
Gao Qinghe, who was struggling in the warm bed with his head covered, suddenly felt an itch on the tip of his nose.
I couldn't help but sneeze very hard, and almost burst out the urine that I had been holding in all night.
Okay, no need to struggle now.
He quickly jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom.
Qi Lianxin heard the noise in the living room and leaned over to ask with concern:
"Xiao He, are you okay? It's cold today, wear more clothes, don't get sick again!"
"fine!"
Gao Qinghe flushed the toilet and walked out of the bathroom. He stood in front of the bathroom mirror, patted his face, looked at his red and tearful eyes, and wondered in his heart: Could it be that Miaomiao kid scolding me?
"Mom, what are we having for dinner today?" Gao Qinghe changed his clothes and wandered into the living room.
He looked here and there, and found some cut fruits on the coffee table. He picked up the bowl and started eating.
This is what happens when you don’t eat breakfast. When you wake up, you feel like a starving ghost.
Qi Lianxin secretly complained in his heart, but smiled slightly and said:
"Corn stewed with pork ribs, and a simple dipping sauce. I'm going out in a while."
While talking, he did not stop working. He quickly mended the torn pants of his granddaughter, put away the needle and thread, and got up to go to the kitchen to cook.
Gao Qinghe nodded and asked casually, "Mom, why are you going out?"
I picked up my daughter's pants and held them up to my eyes. The little girl was very active. She tore a pair of pants after playing on the slide twice in kindergarten.
Gao Qinghe and Jiang Baohai threw away the broken items. Qi Lianxin couldn't bear it, so he picked up the seams one by one and sewed them up until they looked like new, without any signs of damage.
"Mom, you have great skills. It's a pity there is no clothing processing factory nearby, otherwise I would definitely ask you to be the team leader." Gao Qinghe said with sincere admiration.
Qi Lianxin smiled, did not answer the previous question, and naturally changed the topic to his work problems.
"Is there really nothing nearby? I used to make buttons back home, but I've been in the provincial capital for two months now, and I've been doing this at home every day. It doesn't even take half a day, so I've wasted the rest of the day."
"Or, why don't you call a part-time worker? It's just sweeping the floor and wiping the windows. I can do it every day." Qi Lianxin asked tentatively.
Gao Qinghe shook his head. "That won't do. If your son knew I was using his biological mother as a nanny, he would definitely blame me."
"Why don't you just pay me a salary?" Qi Lian was really moved.
Gao Qinghe rolled his eyes at her and said, "I bet you won't want it."
At that time, I would have to try my best to persuade her, kneel down and put the money in her hands before she would reluctantly accept it. Why bother?
Besides, I give my mother-in-law a fixed living allowance every month, but she doesn't need it. She always feels that it is the money her son has temporarily left with her and she should save it for him.
However, things have gotten a little better in recent years. Gao Qinghe discovered that her mother-in-law would occasionally buy her some small hairpins and brooches.
But it is impossible to ask her to spend a lot of money unless she is deceived into investing again.
Qi Lian's heart choked.
She had nothing to say.
But my mother-in-law’s work problem is really a problem!
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been living together for several years, and Gao Qinghe has long realized that there are very, very few people like herself who are brave enough to lie down!
"Mom, let me help you think about what kind of job is suitable for you..."
The food was served on the table. Gao Qinghe ate while thinking, and it took him a while to react.
My family didn't eat fish today.
I looked at my mother-in-law in surprise and asked, "Mom, are you finally done eating the fish?"
"No." Qi Lianxin thought: "There is still a bag of frozen food. I forgot to thaw it this morning, so I didn't cook it."
Gao Qinghe: Hi, I’m so happy for nothing.
"Mom, please tell Uncle Wang that it's cold out and it's not safe for him to go to the river alone. Let him rest at home and go to the activity room downstairs to play chess with the old men and dance with the old ladies. That would be great."
Gao Qinghe, who was concentrating on eating, didn't notice that when she mentioned ballroom dancing, Qi Lianxin suddenly clenched his chopsticks and looked up at her quickly.
Seeing that she was only focused on eating and just mentioned it casually, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After lunch, Qi Lianxin put the dishes in the sink, wiped the table, wrapped a scarf around her and went out.
Out of respect for privacy, Gao Qinghe didn't ask, but vaguely guessed that he might have made an appointment with someone.
The community is mostly populated by young people, and families of three like Gao Qinghe are the mainstream combination. The old men and women basically come here to help take care of their grandchildren.
But for a young man of Gao Qinghe's age, his children's grandparents haven't retired yet.
Therefore, most of them are a generation older than Qilian Xin, and there are only a few people of the same age.
Among them were two older nannies, whom Gao Qinghe had met twice. Her mother-in-law liked to go shopping for groceries with them, or go to the gate of the community to pick vegetables from nearby farmers.
It is the kind of original organic vegetable grown with farm fertilizer that may not look good but tastes really good.
Commonly known as the one who pours manure.
After eating, Gao Qinghe rested for a while and sat quietly in the living room reading a book.
She reads all kinds of books. She can easily find joy in any book she picks up.
Gao Qinghe discovered that the older people get, the more comprehensive their perspective on things becomes, and the easier it is for them to discover surprises hidden in the details.
Gao Qingmiao came back and handed two bags of clothes to her sister as soon as she entered the door, and said with a smile:
"Sister, your community has so many activities for the elderly. I just passed by your community activity room and saw seven or eight old men and women, both men and women, doing ballroom dancing."
"I saw your mother-in-law. Her old partner danced quite well."
After saying this, he took out the bill and said sadly:
"It cost 480 yuan in total. What kind of clothes did you order? They're so expensive."
Everyone who makes clothes knows that the cost of materials is actually not that much, and the labor and design fees are the big expenses. But Mo Xiaohong definitely didn't take his sister's money into account, so the 480 should all be the material costs.
As soon as Gao Qinghe heard her brother's description, she guessed that her mother-in-law's dance partner was the fisherman next door, Mr. Wang.
A little surprise.
But it’s good that my mother-in-law is willing to make new friends, but she really doesn’t want to eat fish anymore.
Gao Qinghe opened the bag expectantly. Inside was a dark red nightgown and a beige two-piece autumn and winter palace-style home outfit with lace trims. The hem of the nightgown had a circle of long plush.
Both sets are made of real velvet, which is glossy and skin-friendly.
Now, Gao Qingmiao knew why it was so expensive without Gao Qinghe’s answer.
"Sister, we should be conscientious. The materials for these two sets of clothes cost more than 480. It's not easy for a young girl to start a business. You really have to make up for it."
The two men hadn't done anything yet, but their elbows had already turned outward.
Gao Qinghe snorted at his brother, took the clothes back to his room to try them on, and was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Gao Qingmiao: “…”
I glanced at the standing clock next to the TV cabinet. It was 4:30 in the afternoon.
Huo Jinyu strictly requires the aunt who cooks at home to serve dinner on time at 5:30 p.m. every day. No matter whether the children and grandchildren come home or not, she has to eat at this time.
If I rush back to the old house at this time, I won’t be able to get a meal.
Gao Qingmiao decisively decided to stay at her sister's house and have dinner before leaving.
By the way, tell his sister about his immature idea.
