Chapter 85: It's all thanks to Pearl
Bai Chengxiang and Xu Yin guessed that the old couple should have arrived, so they rushed over.
Even the braised meat shop is closed.
The family started moving things.
Liu Huiying was not idle either.
She also didn't expect that such a big and beautiful hotel was opened by Bai Zhenzhu.
That refrigerator is exactly the same as the one you see on TV. It is said that in the summer you can put leftovers in it and they will not go bad.
There are also photos on the wall, and the dishes look delicious.
After moving the things, Bai Zhenzhu took Liu Huiying and Jiajia upstairs.
Shuo Shuo was very happy and called his brothers to go upstairs to see his new home.
The children were very excited when they knew they would go to school in the city.
Bai Zhenzhu arranged for Liu Huiying to live with Li Yueshu. Fortunately, the bed she bought was big enough.
"Huiying, my cousin lives in this room. You two can live with her. It might be a bit crowded though."
Liu Huiying quickly said:
"No problem, Pearl. I'll move out when I find a job."
She knew that Bai Zhenzhu's family was here, and guessed that her restaurant definitely didn't need any staff.
Since she was already out and had a temporary place to stay, she went out to find a job and was able to support herself and Jiajia.
Bai Zhenzhu touched Jia Jia's head lovingly.
The child was well taken care of by Liu Huiying and kept clean.
The wound on his head was particularly eye-catching.
"Huiying, I have a clothing store and I'm in need of some staff. I'll pay you eight dollars a day, including food and lodging. I'll pay you the same as my sisters."
Moreover, after the New Year, she would go to Chengdu on business trips from time to time, so the clothing store was really short of staff.
Rather than spending the same amount of money looking for someone else, she naturally trusted Liu Huiying more.
Liu Huiying couldn't believe her ears.
She suddenly hugged Bai Zhenzhu and started crying, suppressing her grievances and pain.
When Jia Jia saw her mother crying, she went over and grabbed her mother's hand.
He called out softly, "Mom."
Bai Zhenzhu didn't comfort her and let her vent.
After a while, Liu Huiying calmed down and wiped away her tears.
She couldn't say anything else, so she just swore:
"Pearl, I, Liu Huiying, will never forget the time you helped me when we were desperate."
"Also, the wages don't need to be so high. I have a child to look after. Five dollars a day is enough."
Bai Zhenzhu didn't want her to feel burdened, so she agreed:
"Okay, then it's five dollars a day. As long as you do a good job, I'll give you a raise in the future."
Liu Huiying smiled: "Okay."
Liu Fang prepared lunch early in the morning and made Xinjiang big plate chicken. When the people came back, she went into the kitchen and made a pot of pickled fish and a large bowl of braised pork.
The whole family sat around a large table.
Although Old Man Bai and Li Xiufen were reluctant to leave their hometown, they were very happy to be with their children.
Bai Chengxiang took the opportunity to say something:
"Mom, Dad, Pearl, and the kids are all here. I thought there weren't enough rooms in Xingfu Community, so I looked for another house these two days and have already rented it."
"It's also in Xingfu Community, just in a different building."
"From now on, Pearl's house will be for big brother and his family, and mom and dad will live with us."
Liu Fang said hurriedly:
"We'll pay half of the rent, too."
Xu Yin smiled and patted Liu Fang:
"Sister-in-law, you are slapping us in the face, aren't you? Pearl doesn't even bother with us about these things, so why should we bother with you?"
"If you really think so, we won't dare to come here to eat in the future."
Bai Chenglei said hurriedly:
"No, you have to come and eat."
Bai Chengxiang said:
"Mom and Dad will eat with us in the future. There are more and more people. We can't all eat here. My eldest brother and his wife also have to run their business."
"Besides, Mom will help me take care of the kids in the future, so it's my responsibility to take care of them."
Old Man Bai nodded:
"Old Two is right, you don't have to argue anymore, that's it."
Bai Chenglei also expressed his own plan:
"My parents won't farm anymore, but they can't live without an income."
"Second brother, this is what I think. From now on, our two families will pay our parents a salary of eight dollars a day, and each family will contribute a share."
Bai Chengxiang's eyes lit up:
"Brother, this is a good idea. It will also allow my parents to receive a salary."
Xu Yin and Liu Fang had nothing to say.
Old Man Bai said:
"Well, you two brothers just need to give 50 yuan each month, no more."
"Wait until you make a lot of money in the future before you increase the price."
It is not good for the elderly to be without money. One hundred yuan a month for a couple is already very good for them.
The old man made the final decision and it was settled.
Xu Yin lamented:
"Our family's current good life is all thanks to Pearl."
Liu Fang also said:
"If it weren't for the pearls, we wouldn't be able to pay our tribute even if we wanted to."
Now I can not only show filial respect to my parents-in-law, but also show respect to my own family.
Liu Huiying looked at the Bai family with envy in her eyes.
Bai Zhenzhu's confidence in getting a divorce came from her parents' family.
It was Bai Zhenzhu who gave her the courage to divorce.
Bai Zhenzhu didn't say anything, she just smiled and watched her two brothers being filial to their parents.
She wouldn't get involved at times like this.
She used an empty bowl to serve Jia Jia a bowl of fish soup and also picked up half a bowl of boneless fish slices.
Seeing that she liked braised food, I also picked up several pieces for her.
The little girl seemed to be braver now and would say "Thank you, Miss Bai" to her.
After dinner, Bai Chenglei rode a tricycle to deliver Bai Chengxiang’s bacon as well as the grain, oil and vegetables allocated to him.
The old couple also followed Xu Yin.
As for the two portions divided between Bai Chenglei's family and Bai Zhenzhu, they were placed directly in the restaurant.
Bai Zhenzhu asked Xu Yin to bring lunch to Li Yueshu on the way, while she took Liu Huiying and Jiajia to the hospital.
Fortunately, the injury on Jia Jia's head was not serious, and the doctor only disinfected and re-bandaged it.
Liu Huiying rushed to pay the medical bills and proudly told Bai Zhenzhu that she had money.
"I listened to you and was careful. I would secretly hide some of the money I earned from selling vegetables."
"And last month I sold two pigs, which I had worked so hard to raise. Pei Yong was not at home that day, and the old woman and her friends didn't know how to calculate the accounts, so I secretly hid thirty yuan."
People at that time had very sharp eyes and could estimate the weight of a pig with just one glance.
After Pei Yong returned home, he always felt that there was something wrong with money.
How sad! It was money she had worked so hard to earn, but she had to steal it when she wanted to keep it.
Bai Zhenzhu thought of her past self and said with relief:
"No matter how much you earn in the future, I will only spend it on you and Jiajia."
She peeled an orange for Jiajia, which she had just bought on the roadside.
It's a little sour, but kids love it.
Then Bai Zhenzhu took her mother and daughter to the clothing store.
Li Yueshu is greeting customers. The New Year is approaching and the business in the store is indeed picking up.
Upon learning that Liu Huiying was also working, Li Yueshu was overjoyed:
"When Pearl is busy in the future, the two of us will have company."
Liu Huiying is two years older than Li Yueshu, so Li Yueshu calls her Sister Huiying.
A woman ran away with her child just before the New Year, it was obvious that she was in trouble.
But Li Yueshu didn't ask any more questions and took out two candies from her pocket and gave them to Jiajia.
They both have a daughter, so they have common topics.
