363 Cousin and Cousin's Wife
Qi Lianxin's heart melted as he looked at the two beautiful and lovely smiling faces, one big and one small, in front of him.
He couldn't bear to scold them, but just silently handed them some paper and quickly wiped their snot and tears.
After drinking a large glass of water, the mother and daughter finally recovered.
Jiang Qiyue climbed onto the dining table, picked up an apple, and started to eat it with both hands.
The sweet and sour apples are delicious to eat.
Gao Qinghe put away his and his daughter's shoes, turned around and asked:
"Mom, who were you talking to on the phone just now?"
Qi Lianxin, who was telling his granddaughter to eat the apple in small bites, froze for a moment with a guilty conscience and said hesitantly:
"It's from my hometown. Your uncle's son, daughter-in-law and his wife have all been laid off."
"Laid off?" Gao Qinghe was a little surprised.
How come this is two years earlier than in the previous life?
However, the details of many things are no longer the same as in the previous life, as long as the general direction remains unchanged.
Gao Qinghe quickly calmed down, took an apple and sat at the dining table to eat it, and gave her mother-in-law a look that said, "Just say what you want to say."
Qi Lianxin swallowed hard and whispered, "Aren't we looking for a nanny to cook? When your aunt found out about this, she suggested that you let your sister-in-law come to our house to cook. We're all family and we're more familiar with each other, so it's safer than having an outsider at home. We don't have to worry about losing things or anything."
Having said that, he glanced at Gao Qinghe and hurriedly explained:
"I haven't agreed yet. I said I'd discuss it with you before telling her."
Gao Qinghe nodded and said, "Well done, keep it up."
But the mother-in-law had obviously not finished speaking, so she gestured for her to continue.
Seeing that his daughter-in-law didn't show any anger, Qi Lianxin became a little bolder and continued:
"Your eldest brother used to work as an accountant in the factory, but now he can't find a suitable job. Your uncle asked Xiao Hai to see if the company could arrange an accounting job for him, or something like that, that involves office work."
"Oh, your uncle and his family said that the salary should be the same as before in the factory, and it doesn't need to be as high as the people in the city. They are in a difficult situation now, and they are satisfied with just having something to eat."
Qi Lianxin smiled bitterly: "I said I can't make the decision. I can only speak for them. Whether they agree or not depends on you and Xiaohai."
"But the old man does look a bit pitiful, and I thought if we can help, we'll do it."
"Let your sister-in-law come to our house to cook for us, and you can pay her the same salary as a nanny and let her live in the same room with me. After all, she is one of our own, which is better than having an outsider come. What do you think?"
Qi Lianxin looked at Gao Qinghe expectantly.
"I don't think it's good."
Gao Qinghe spoke bluntly, threw the apple core into the trash can, and clapped his hands.
It is best to keep a certain distance between relatives.
She didn't want relatives to stay at her house because it might expose her secrets.
"but......"
Just as Qi Lianxin showed disappointment, Gao Qinghe changed the subject and said:
"Let's put it this way. We don't like my uncle and aunt, but my brother and his wife are hardworking and ambitious. If they're not afraid of hard work, I can give them a hand."
In the previous life, Jiang Baohai's eldest cousin and his wife had been looking for work after being laid off. Later, they bought a house and two shops in the county town on their own. They were both hardworking people.
She still remembered that one year, she and Jiang Baohai returned to their old home from the provincial capital to celebrate the New Year. They encountered a heavy snowstorm that had not been seen in decades. Near dusk, the car was stuck five kilometers away from the county town and could not move forward.
At that time, there was no village or shop nearby, and no one could be found. Just when I didn't know what to do, my cousin and his wife suddenly appeared like a drop from the sky.
It turned out that I heard from my uncle that they would arrive in the afternoon, but I waited in the county town but they didn't show up. I guessed that something might have happened, so I walked over to look for them.
Her cousin's wife took off her rubber shoes and gave them to her to wear. She held her hand all the way, fearing that the delicate girl would slip and fall, and she protected her all the way to the county town.
Gao Qinghe never forgot the warmth in his cousin's wife's palm.
Later, the uncle wanted to divide the house in the old house, but Jiang Baohai didn't care about it.
When Qi Lianxin heard that his daughter-in-law was willing to help, he was delighted. Without even asking her how, he immediately called his hometown and asked them to find time to come to the city.
When they heard this, they thought Jiang Baohai could arrange a job right away. Worried that the night would bring more trouble, they packed their bags that night, left before dawn the next day, and arrived in the city at noon.
Qi Lianxin had no idea. When the phone at home rang and she went to answer it, she found out that the person had already arrived in the provincial capital.
Jiang Baohai was on a business trip these days, so Gao Qinghe took her daughter to the kindergarten in the morning to register and pay tuition.
I am currently participating in the school's back-to-school cleaning activity, which will probably end around three or four in the afternoon.
Qi Lianxin looked at Uncle Wang who was helping wash dishes in the kitchen and asked him:
"What should I do?"
I had just had lunch and was already a little bloated. When I got anxious, I started burping non-stop.
After hearing the whole story, Uncle Wang asked her to take a deep breath to relieve her hiccups, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Sister Qi, you're too impatient. You should wait until President Jiang and Xiao Gao have discussed it before telling them."
Qi Lianxin also regretted speaking too hastily, but since everyone was already here, there was no point in saying this anymore.
"I'll wash these two dishes and then go with you to pick the person up." Uncle Wang said helplessly.
Qi Lianxin took a deep breath and immediately felt relieved, and the hiccups stopped.
Gao Qinghe, who had been working with the children for a whole day, had just arrived at the door of his house when he heard a strange voice coming from inside the house and frowned suspiciously.
After cleaning for a whole day, Jiang Qiyue became excited and ran to the front excitedly, knocking on the door and asking his grandmother to open it.
The voices in the room suddenly quieted down and the door opened.
"Grandpa Wang!"
Jiang Qiyue called out loudly, then tilted his head and asked, "Where's grandma?"
"Your grandma is greeting guests."
Uncle Wang pointed into the house and whispered to Gao Qinghe, "Your eldest cousin and his wife are here. They arrived at noon. You were still busy, so I accompanied your mother to the train station to pick them up. They just arrived home and sat down."
Then he walked out of the door and made way for the gate. "Since you're back, I'll go back first."
He bent down and touched Jiang Qiyue's little head lovingly, waved his hand, and left.
Gao Qinghe looked at the two extra pairs of shoes at the door and was a little confused. Did his cousin and his wife fly over?
This happened too quickly!
Jiang Chengzu and Li Fang, who had just sat down on the sofa in the living room for less than two minutes, heard the noise at the door and quickly stood up, facing the entrance and greeted Gao Qinghe.
"Sister-in-law, you're back."
Jiang Qiyue, who was about to rush towards his grandmother, stopped quickly when he saw two strangers appear in the house.
He turned around and ran back to his mother, grabbed the legs of her flared jeans, and looked curiously at Jiang Chengzu and Li Fang in the living room.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you are here."
Gao Qinghe smiled and nodded, then lowered his head to teach his daughter: "Yueyue, call them uncle and aunt. They had dinner with us during the Chinese New Year last year. Do you remember?"
Jiang Qiyue shook her head, she didn't remember.
Li Fang quickly waved her hands and said it was okay, then took out some candy from her pocket to entertain the child.
Jiang Qiyue glanced at his mother, got her approval, and happily took the candy, calling her "Uncle" and "Uncle" sweetly.
