Chapter 120 Mom Visits
early morning.
Zhao Yi washed the little guy clean, then handed him to Zhang Jing. After breakfast, he went to the repair shop.
After Zhang Jing finished breakfast and washed the dishes, she rushed to the garment factory carrying the little one on her back.
After Zhao Yi repaired the home appliances that had been delivered yesterday evening, he read today's newspaper.
These newspapers are ordered by the department store. Anyone who likes them can take them and read them. Just put them back where they were after reading. The used newspapers that have been read are placed in the utility room. If anyone wants to take them back to paste on the walls or windows, just go to the utility room and get them.
"Boss."
When Zhao Yi heard the familiar voice, he immediately put down the newspaper.
"Mom, why are you here?"
Of course Zhao Yi could recognize it was his mother's voice. He put down the newspaper and responded without even looking up.
"I came here to give you something, and I want to see my precious grandson. I was in such a hurry last time that I didn't have time to see him before I had to go back."
Li Daju smiled.
"We have everything in the region. You can just keep these things for yourself. How can we eat them all?"
Zhao Yi looked at his mother and said, as he welcomed his mother into the repair shop and handed the stool to Li Daju.
"This is a gift from your uncle. Xiaojing likes to eat these things, but I don't like them."
Li Daju took out some pastries and said.
Nowadays, my uncle Li Dashun collects eggs everywhere. He comes to the area once every two days and delivers 500 eggs each time. He can only earn one cent for each egg, so a trip only makes 4 yuan after deducting the transportation fare.
I earned more than 50 yuan in a month, and bought gifts worth 20 yuan and visited the homes of people in the logistics department of the food factory.
He only earned about 30 yuan and took the money to pay back Zhao Yi. Zhao Yi told him to keep it for his family first and save it slowly until he had enough money before discussing this matter.
He bought gifts to visit Zhao Yi, but Zhao Yi refused to accept them and instead gave him some cigarettes and alcohol.
"Mom, have you eaten yet?"
Zhao Yi asked.
"Not yet."
Li Daju shook her head. She came in too haste and indeed had not eaten yet.
Zhao Yi stood up and walked towards the state-owned restaurant not far away, ordered a bowl of tofu soup and a bowl of braised pork, handed over four taels of meat coupons, and the food was brought over in a few minutes.
Li Daju tasted the braised pork with a chopstick and stopped eating, but just finished the tofu soup and steamed bread.
Zhao Yi went home and got a bowl to pack up the braised pork. Then he held the bowl and some other things and walked towards the steel plant school.
Zhao Yi shook his head and didn't care what his mother was doing.
Not long after, my mother Li Daju came back.
"This braised pork is not as delicious as the one you made yourself. Especially the loach is much more delicious than this braised pork. I made so much for you this time. Make it for me later to satisfy your craving."
Li Daju pointed to the small wooden barrel that was brought over and said.
Zhao Yi nodded. The braised pork in the state-owned restaurant tasted very good. The condiments were complete and the chef was a level seven chef. How could his skills be worse than Zhao Yi's?
Mom just wanted the three ungrateful kids to taste the braised pork, and Zhao Yi didn't bother to care. He only gave food to mom and dad anyway, and he wouldn't take the money for now.
As for the food, he had already given it his thanks and it was none of Zhao Yi’s business how to arrange it.
After the people from the Transportation Department came over, Zhao Yi handed the repaired home appliances to them and asked them to sign the documents.
Then he took his mother home, carrying loaches and food.
I don't know where my mother got those pounds of flour.
When Zhang Jing carried the little one home, Zhao Yi was still killing loaches in the yard.
The construction team looked at what Zhao Yi was holding with some curiosity.
"Everyone, have a drink at home today, but you have to bring your own food."
Zhao Yi looked at everyone and said.
"That's a good feeling."
The three masters from the construction team laughed, and then went to the state-owned restaurant, ordered a stir-fried vegetable dish, and bought a few steamed buns.
When they came back with the dishes, Zhao Yi had already started preparing the braised loach.
After a while, you can smell the fragrance.
Everyone swallowed unconsciously.
At this time, Li Daju was holding the little guy Zhao Peng in her arms and admiring him.
"Grandma's baby is so well behaved that he doesn't even cry when grandma holds him."
Li Daju looked at the little one in her arms, who was so fair, tender and well-behaved that she felt very fond of him.
When the food was served, Li Daju was not in a hurry to eat together. Zhao Yi left a small bowl of loaches and waited until his mother had had enough before eating.
He took out a bottle of wine and poured it for several construction team masters.
"Comrade Zhao is generous."
Seeing the Erguotou that Zhao Yi took out, everyone smiled.
They picked up the chopsticks without hesitation. No one in the construction team was shy because they knew they were the ones who would be ashamed and hungry. It was common to eat at other people's homes.
After taking a bite of loach, his eyes brightened up a little.
"Master Zhao, what's this?"
Several people asked.
"Loaches are plentiful in the fields in the countryside. You can get some yourself if you have a chance."
Zhao Yi did not hide it. This thing is very common in rural areas.
However, the construction team will not go to the countryside. When building houses in the countryside, villagers help each other and rarely hire people.
A few people ate and chatted, and soon they finished the loach. Then they started to pick up other vegetarian dishes to go with the rice.
After Zhao Yi's hospitality, the chefs worked more attentively in the afternoon.
The speed has also increased a lot.
Li Daju followed Zhang Jing all the way to the garment factory, holding the child in her arms, unwilling to let go, until they reached the gate of the garment factory, and then she reluctantly handed the child to Zhang Jing.
"Xiao Jing, when your eldest brother comes to visit me in the village in the future, you must bring my eldest grandson with you."
Li Daju looked at Zhang Jing and said.
"Okay, Mom, you go back first. We'll see each other again after get off work. You don't have much to do back home anyway. Play in the city for a few days before going back."
Zhang Jing smiled.
“That’s not good.”
Li Daju was a little moved. The more she looked at this little guy, the more she liked him. How could she bear to let him go?
But since Zhang Jing didn't ask her to stay, she felt embarrassed to just stay.
"You are his grandmother and my mother, so what's wrong with staying for a few days?"
Zhang Jing didn't say anything more after she finished speaking. She had come to work on time anyway, so she didn't want to be late.
Li Daju walked back to the department store happily, chatted with Zhao Yi for a few words, and then walked towards the People's Square. She didn't have time to go shopping properly the last time she came to the city.
Zhao Yi naturally wanted his mother to stay and play for a few days before going back. As for food rations, Zhao Yi was not worried. The family saved a lot every month, and with enough oil and water, the consumption of food was not that great.
evening.
Zhao Yi kept a few more masters and saw their progress, especially the gate of the courtyard, which was built very beautifully.
Get out the bacon and start preparing dinner.
At this time, Li Daju had been waiting at the entrance of the garment factory. When she saw Zhang Jing coming out, she hurried forward and took Zhao Peng in her arms.
"Auntie, when did you come?"
Li Fang and Peng Yiju were still a little surprised to see Li Daju.
"I just got here today. I was about to go back, but Xiaojing asked me to stay in the city for a few more days before going back."
Li Daju's face was full of smiles.
