Chapter 103: I Want Liao Sijie to Help Take Care of the Child (Page 1/2)
Lin Man didn't want her mother-in-law's salary, she just felt a little sorry for her. It was really not easy to find a job nowadays, and there was really no need to ruin her future just to help her take care of the children.
Huo Qingci said, "Since Manman doesn't want our mother to resign, then I'll talk to her. I have a good suggestion, what do you think?"
"What's a good suggestion?"
"Didn't my cousin Liao Sijie go to the farm with her parents? How about we ask her to come over and take care of you and help with the kids?
Although my aunt and uncle were sent to the farm, their children were not required to work on the farm, so they were actually free.
Huo Qingci naturally felt sorry for his wife. No one else had a mother-in-law to help take care of the children, and it would be unprofitable for his mother to quit her job, so he might as well hire someone to help.
We definitely can't invite outsiders, so we can only ask my cousin to come and help. My cousin is exposed to the sun on the farm every day. If she continues to be exposed to the sun for another half a year, it will probably be difficult for her to find a partner in the future.
Lin Man asked Huo Qingci, "Your cousin is younger than me. Can she take care of others?"
"She raised her younger siblings. Apart from her academic performance not being as good as her two younger brothers, she is actually quite hardworking."
"If we ask her to help take care of the child, will we be reported?"
"Relatives can come and lend a hand; outsiders can't do anything about it. Manman, it must be tiring for you to take care of the child alone. I sincerely hope someone can help you."
Just think about it, some children poop while drinking milk, which makes adults very busy.
It is not convenient for Qinghuan to be present when you are breastfeeding, after all, this requires some private space.
I have to go to work and I really don't have time to take care of you. I'm really worried that you won't be able to handle it all by yourself."
Lin Man knew in her heart that it would be much easier if there was someone to help, as taking care of a child was not an easy task.
If you are lucky and have an obedient baby, you only need to get up a few times to feed him at night.
But if she gave birth to a baby who cried for a hundred days, it would be the end of her life. Her parents would have to hold her and comfort her at night, and she would cry as soon as she touched the bed, as if a ghost was chasing her.
You are finally free during the day and want to take a rest, but he is sleeping soundly. Who can stand this reversal of day and night?
"You're planning to ask Liao Sijie to help us take care of the child. Where will she sleep? How much salary should we pay her per month?"
"The rooms here are big enough to fit two beds. We can buy another bamboo bed for Qinghuan's room. As for her salary, we'll start with 20 yuan a month and increase it later if she performs well."
"Huo Qingci, do you think your cousin will come to help us take care of the child? She originally had the opportunity to stay in Beijing, but in the end she decided to follow her parents to the island."
"I'll go see my aunt in a few days and ask her if she agrees first. I'll call my mom and tell her not to resign in a hurry."
"Well, you do need to tell them. Your mother's monthly salary is several dozen yuan more than yours. If you really quit, you'll lose a lot. Your two younger brothers haven't gotten married yet."
"Don't worry about them. My parents are very frugal. They have saved a lot of money."
"So you have the right to take the money?"
Huo Qingci curled his lips and smiled, "If I didn't accept it, my mother would think it was too little. We help look after my brother. They are worried that we don't have enough money, so they send a few dozen yuan every month. I'll go find Commander Lu tomorrow and call Grandpa back."
"Then why don't you bring two red fish for Commander Lu?"

"Manman, it's hard for you to make salted fish, just bring two fresh fish."
However, the texture of fresh red fish is rough, and the taste is much better when processed into dried fish. Dried red fish is also auspicious as a gift.
Since Huo Qingci will have to stay here to work for the next few years, Commander Lu must visit him frequently.
"Tomorrow, bring some fruit, two groupers, and two large lobsters!"
Cigarettes and alcohol cost extra money, but seafood was caught at sea and was free. Besides, Commander Lu was from Guangdong Province and liked to eat seafood, so he would be happier if I gave him some nice seafood than cigarettes and alcohol.
The next day, Lu Zheng was shocked to see Huo Qingci carrying a large bag of fruit and a bag of seafood.
"Xiao Huo, why are you here?"
"Commander Lu, I came to borrow your phone."
"Just borrow the phone, why did you bring anything here?"
Lu Zheng smiled and pulled the bag from Huo Qingci's hand. He took a look and exclaimed, "Wow, it's splendid lobsters and grouper. This must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"It's not much money. I bought it from a fisherman."
"Then come to my house for lunch. My eldest grandson also happened to be visiting the island."
Huo Qingci was about to refuse, but Lu Zheng said, "Come to my house, I'll talk to you about your aunt and the others."
"What happened to my aunt?"
"Yesterday I went to the farm to inspect it and learned that my aunt had fainted from heatstroke the day before yesterday. She accidentally hit her head on a rock and cut it."
"Commander Lu, thank you for telling me. I'll take a leave of absence after I borrow the phone to visit my aunt. I won't be having dinner at your house today. I'll visit you next time."
"Okay, bring your wife and brother over next time, and I'll ask your Grandma Deng to cook you some meat. I heard you were looking for someone to exchange your bicycle tickets for? I have one here for you to use first."
"Commander Lu, how can this be possible? I can't take this ticket."
"Here, take it. Give it to me when you have the ticket. I'll buy a bicycle for my granddaughter then."
Huo Qingci and Lu Zheng pushed and shoved each other back and forth for a few times, and Huo Qingci finally accepted the bicycle ticket. It was really inconvenient to travel without a bicycle.
It takes at least sixteen or seventeen minutes to walk from where I live to the hospital, and at least half an hour or more to walk to the supply and marketing cooperative. Buying a bicycle will make it more convenient for everyone in the future.
After Huo Qingci called his grandfather, he took the bicycle ticket and went straight home, telling Lin Man that something had happened to his aunt.
Lin Man gave Huo Qingci four pounds of brown sugar and a few salted fish, and asked him to go see his aunt.
Huo Qingci ate a few mouthfuls of food at home and hurried to Nantian Farm, where he found that his aunt and her family were preparing to have lunch.
"Xiao Ci, why are you here again?"
"Aunt, I heard from Commander Lu that you were injured, so I came to see you."
"It's nothing, just a small scratch on the scalp. There was a lot of bleeding at the time, which scared them all."
After going through so much, a minor scalp injury was really nothing to Xiao Rong. At least no one would throw feces at them here.
Although they did not receive a salary like the militiamen, as long as they worked hard and earned more work points, they could not only get more food at the end of the year, but also exchange their work points for money.
Life is a little hard, but at least they can sleep soundly at night and no longer have to worry about someone knocking on the door in the middle of the night.
