364 I'm Here
Gao Qinghe gestured to his cousin and his wife to sit down first.
After leaving Jiang Qiyue, the little social butterfly, to liven up the atmosphere, he went back to his room, took a shower, and changed into comfortable home clothes.
During the kindergarten cleaning, the children’s participation is the most important thing, but it is the parents who actually do the work.
Gao Qinghe slacked off the whole time, but still inevitably got covered in dust.
I changed my clothes and mood, and also thought about the arrangements for my cousin and his wife.
Gao Qinghe walked out of the room in a refreshed outfit and found that his cousin was playing games with Jiang Qiyue.
Two people, one big and one small, sat facing each other at the two ends of the coffee table, each holding a doll in his hand and fighting with each other.
It can be seen that the two are not familiar with each other yet. Jiang Qiyue is quite polite to her cousin and does not take advantage of him during a fight.
Li Fang was already busy in the kitchen. Qi Lianxin stood beside her and advised her not to do anything. She smiled and said:
"It's okay, Aunt Wu. Women who grew up in the countryside know how to cook since childhood. You still need to take care of your hands. Go and take a rest. I know how to use the stove. Don't worry, I won't set your kitchen on fire."
Qi Lianxin smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, it's not right to ask guests to cook. Come out and rest for a while. We'll go out to eat later."
Li Fang frowned, "Eating out is so expensive!"
She said generously, "I originally came to the city to do this. From now on, just leave the three meals a day of the family to me. Today I will show off my skills and let my sister-in-law test them later."
Everyone in Zhaozhuang knew that Jiang Baohai had married a picky and spoiled wife. Although Li Fang smiled on the surface, she was actually quite nervous inside, afraid that she would not pass the test.
When Qi Lianxin saw that she had misunderstood, he thought he was doomed.
Just as she was about to speak directly, a hand gently rested on her shoulder.
Qi Lian looked back in panic, and when he saw Gao Qinghe's smiling face, his heart stopped for a moment.
"It's okay, Mom. This is my sister-in-law, not someone else. We're family, so there's no need to be polite, right, sister-in-law?" Gao Qinghe asked with a smile towards the kitchen.
Li Fang was stunned at first, wondering when she appeared. She walked without making any sound, which was so scary.
After realizing what was happening, he nodded quickly: "That's right, Aunt Wu, just wait for dinner to start!"
She smiled nervously at Gao Qinghe, put on an apron, and immediately started cooking dinner.
Qi Lianxin squinted his eyes: Didn’t you say that you don’t allow her to come home to be a nanny?
Gao Qinghe raised his eyebrows: Yes.
Qi Lianxin was stunned: How can you have the nerve to let someone cook dinner for us? They are guests!
Gao Qinghe spread his hands: Who said guests can’t cook?
She has carefully planned a way to get rich for my cousin and his wife, so isn't it only right that they eat a meal cooked by her?
Qi Lianxin: “…”
Why does she have such a shameless daughter-in-law?
Anyway, he has no say in this family. Qi Lianxin covered his face and decided to play house with his granddaughter.
However, Jiang Chengzu did not let her go.
He asked Jiang Baohai indirectly what job he had assigned to him.
"Aunt Wu, Xiao Hai asked me when I can go back to work. We're new here and don't even have a place to stay. Can I wait a few days? I want to rent a house and settle down first."
Seeing that Qi Lianxin didn't answer immediately, Jiang Chengzu thought she was reluctant to answer, so he quickly assured her that it would only take him one day and would definitely not delay anything.
Gao Qinghe said, "Dinner is ready!"
Saved Qi Lianxin, who didn't know how to explain it.
Li Fang brought the food to the table. She prepared three dishes and a soup for four adults and one child, with just the right amount to ensure everyone had enough to eat without wasting any food.
She also steamed a small bowl of egg custard for Jiang Qiyue, adding a drop of sesame oil and a drop of soy sauce. Gao Qinghe swallowed secretly when she saw this.
So, under the pretext of feeding my daughter, she ate one spoonful at a time and was very happy.
Jiang Qiyue watched the egg custard in the bowl quickly disappear and protested angrily, "It's almost gone!"
What she meant was, she only has a little bit left, and mommy, don’t eat any more.
Gao Qinghe coughed twice, his eyes lingering on the egg custard with reluctance. He closed his eyes firmly, then opened them again, "Alright, alright, I'll give it all to you. Eat it all in one bite, ah——"
Jiang Qiyue opened her mouth wide, and Gao Qinghe spooned the last of the egg custard into her mouth.
Jiang Qiyue was so happy that he kicked up his feet, nodded his head and said with puffed cheeks: "Great!"
Gao Qinghe looked at Li Fang and said, "Sister-in-law, your cooking is so delicious. Did you learn it specially?"
She has tried other dishes and they all tasted good.
If Old Lady Tian ranked first and Qi Lianxin ranked second, Gao Qinghe felt that Li Fang's cooking skills could be ranked 2.5 among the people he knew, which was slightly better than Zheng Xiaopeng, who ranked third.
It’s simple, it’s just because Li Fang cooks faster.
Gao Qinghe nodded secretly, feeling that the path to wealth he had envisioned for the couple was a perfect fit for them.
Li Fang modestly waved her hand and said, "I didn't learn it on purpose. I just went over to help the factory chef when he was cooking. I watched a lot and learned some little tricks that others don't know."
Jiang Chengzu also said: "The food in our factory cafeteria was praised by the county governor after he had eaten it. Back then..."
At this point, he suddenly paused, remembering that he and his wife no longer worked in the factory. He touched his nose awkwardly, his expression a little embarrassed.
Li Fang patted her husband's arm and said, "What happened is over. We are healthy and able-bodied. Why should we worry about not being able to find a job?"
As he spoke, he looked up at Gao Qinghe eagerly, "Here are my sister-in-law and Fifth Aunt."
"Sister-in-law, tell me the truth. What do you think of my sister-in-law's cooking? If you have any comments, just tell me and I'll adjust it next time."
Gao Qinghe put down his bowl and chopsticks, gave a thumbs up and said, "Full marks."
Jiang Qiyue followed her mother's lead and gave a thumbs-up, saying, "Full marks!"
This sentence amused everyone.
Seeing that the atmosphere was right, Gao Qinghe suggested, "Brother, sister-in-law, do you want to start a small business in the provincial capital?"
Jiang Chengzu, who had just finished his meal and was about to put down his bowl and chopsticks, paused and made eye contact with his bewildered wife Li Fang.
Didn’t Aunt Wu say that everything had been arranged for them?
Li Fang suddenly became a little anxious, but Jiang Chengzu restrained her. He gently put down his chopsticks and asked tentatively:
"What small business are you talking about, sister-in-law?"
Gao Qinghe glanced at Li Fang and said, "I just watched my sister-in-law cooking. She cooks very quickly and the food tastes much better than the food I eat at the food stalls outside."
"I was thinking at the time, my sister-in-law's cooking skills must not be wasted. If she sets up a night snack stall in the park square, business will definitely be booming."
Li Fang asked curiously, "A night snack stall?"
There is no night market in Qing County, but there are a few small stalls that open regularly in the evening, specifically set up in front of nightclubs, and many people go there to take care of business at night.
Because it is not large-scale, the concept of a night market has not been formed.
Jiang Chengzu had heard about it from his colleagues who had been on business trips abroad.
It is said that there are people selling food in the south late at night, and the streets are still full of people in the middle of the night.
Especially at the gates of large factories, workers would go out for supper after their night shift. Over time, this market grew to a large scale and became a night market street.
"People in the provincial capital also have a night market street?" Jiang Chengzu asked curiously.
Gao Qinghe nodded. "The night market in the provincial capital is really lively. Let's go over there later to take a look."
The couple came to their senses and remembered that Gao Qinghe had never mentioned anything about going to work since he came home. They guessed in their hearts that their sister-in-law had no plans to arrange for them to go to the company.
But since she asked them to go into the city, she would definitely not ignore it.
The couple looked at each other, suppressed their disappointment, and nodded: "Okay."
Since we are here, let’s take a look first.
