Chapter 332 No One Knows a Daughter Better Than Her Mother
Because of the order for baseball uniforms, Su Jiaojiao cannot go home this summer vacation. There will be more or less quality problems in the early stages, and she has to go there every day to keep an eye on it.
Chen Guilan was very sad for a while after receiving the call, and suggested going to the capital to see Su Jiaojiao.
Her daughter couldn't come home during the summer vacation, only during the Chinese New Year, and the Chinese New Year was still several months away. She missed her daughter.
"Mom, I'm very busy these days. Maybe I can spare a few days to go home next month." Su Jiaojiao missed her mother very much, but she didn't want her mother to come, mainly because there were a lot of things to do at home, and it would be inconvenient to travel on the road in such hot weather.
"School starts next month, why are you back?" Chen Guilan was determined to go see her. "It's the off-season now, I'll sort out my family affairs and stay for three or five days and then come back. You don't have to worry about me, I can buy my own ticket and go."
"Okay, then I'll let Cai Ting contact you and you two can come together." Su Jiaojiao couldn't convince Chen Guilan, so she had to call Cai Ting and ask her to arrange the things on hand and accompany her mother to the capital to live for a few days.
Qifa Garment Factory has been making jeans for more than two months and has become very skilled, so there will not be any major quality problems.
Cai Ting said that she walks around the workshop every day, and at most helps to cut thread ends or something, and there is basically nothing to do. It is no problem for her to go back for ten days or half a month.
Su Jiaojiao was very excited when she learned that Chen Guilan was coming. On the day of the holiday, she drove out to buy her mother's daily necessities and filled the refrigerator.
Chen Guilan didn't know that she had bought a house yet, and just happened to come and see her new house.
Cai Ting had been at the Qifa Garment Factory for more than two months. She was annoyed by the rumbling of sewing machines the moment she opened her eyes. With Su Jiaojiao's permission, she quickly handed over the tasks at hand and returned to Jiao County that same day.
Chen Guilan had to bring too many things for Su Jiaojiao, and it took her two days to prepare before she and Cai Ting boarded the train with all their luggage.
As soon as the two of them left the station, they saw Su Jiaojiao driving a car to pick them up. Not only Chen Guilan, but also Cai Ting was stunned: "Jiaojiao, when did you buy the car?"
"I bought it less than a week ago." Su Jiaojiao was very satisfied with her decision, otherwise she would have to take a taxi to pick her up in such hot weather.
"When did you learn to drive?" Chen Guilan was even more surprised.
"I got my driver's license before the New Year." Su Jiaojiao had been driving for a week and was no longer as nervous as before. Chen Guilan sat in the passenger seat and didn't dare to move. She couldn't believe that her daughter could drive.
There was a lot of traffic along the way.
As expected of the imperial capital, it is bustling and lively, and from time to time you can see pedestrians of all skin colors crossing the road.
Su Jiaojiao skillfully steered the wheel and chatted with Chen Guilan. Chen Guilan told her to drive calmly and not talk.
Su Jiaojiao was left in a state of confusion. Since it wasn't her work schedule, the traffic wasn't congested, and they were back at Jinyuan in less than an hour. Cai Ting was excited: "Finally, we're home."
Chen Guilan originally thought that Su Jiaojiao rented the house for Cai Ting and the others, and asked Su Jiaojiao how much the rent was. The house was decorated so beautifully, it must have cost a lot of money.
Su Jiaojiao smiled: "Mom, this is our house. We bought it before the New Year."
"Why didn't you tell me you were buying a house?" Chen Guilan was hit hard. Her first reaction was that her daughter was buying a car and a house in the capital, so she wondered if she would never come back...
"Mom, I just don't want you to worry." Su Jiaojiao knew that Chen Guilan was a worrier. "I just wanted to give you a surprise!"
"Yes, Auntie, that's why I didn't tell you on the way." Cai Ting said with a smile, "This place is better than Jiao County. Look, I have my own room. When Jiaojiao bought a house, we also benefited from it."
The sun is scorching outside the window, but the room is very cold.
Chen Guilan looked back and forth at the new house. It was smaller than her home, but it was well decorated and had all the necessary appliances and kitchen utensils. It looked like a complete home.
Thinking that my daughter had to run around to complete all these things by herself, I felt very uncomfortable as a mother.
"Ding Linyu usually lives alone. I come over to stay for two nights on the weekend." Su Jiaojiao saw that Chen Guilan was silent, so she took out some clothes and gave them to her. "You two must be tired from the journey. Take a shower and rest for a while. Then we can go out for dinner."
"No need, just eat at home. I'll come out and cook later." Chen Guilan took the clothes and went into the bathroom. Cai Ting had already finished washing and came out. Seeing that Chen Guilan was not very happy, she quietly asked Su Jiaojiao, "What's wrong, Auntie?"
"She complained that I didn't tell her about buying a house." Su Jiaojiao realized that she was wrong. She should have told Chen Guilan about such a big thing, including buying a car.
"You guys chat, I'll go cook." Cai Ting stuck out her tongue and went into the kitchen.
Chen Guilan came out of the bathroom without saying anything. She dried her hair and went into the kitchen to help Cai Ting cook.
After dinner, Cai Ting tactfully went into the bedroom to sleep.
If the mother and daughter start arguing, it won’t be too late for her to come out and mediate.
Su Jiaojiao arranged for Chen Guilan to rest in her bedroom. The mother and daughter hadn't seen each other for a long time, so it was a good opportunity for them to talk.
These days, Su Jiaojiao went to Miaomiao Garment Factory every day, and then had to go to Wudaokou to pick up Ding Linyu when she came back. Today, she got up early to pick her up at the station. She was exhausted and fell asleep as soon as she got into bed.
Chen Guilan was very tired after sitting on the train all night, but she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She hoped that her daughter would return to her hometown after graduation and find a partner locally. In the future, whether the couple went to work or started a business, she could help take care of their children.
The family lives happily in harmony.
She didn't want her daughter to stay in the imperial capital.
But now it seems that Su Jiaojiao is not planning to go back. She even bought a house and a car secretly without telling her a word.
If she hadn't come, she wouldn't know any of this.
Su Jiaojiao slept heartlessly for more than two hours. When she woke up, she saw Chen Guilan sitting by the bed, staring at her without blinking. She was startled and immediately sat up: "Mom, why aren't you sleeping?"
"I can't sleep." Chen Guilan's eyes were red, as if she had been crying.
"Mom, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kept this from you. I should have told you. I really wanted to give you a surprise." Su Jiaojiao admitted her mistake. "From now on, I promise to tell you everything. Please forgive me this time!"
She originally thought that her mother would be happy if she bought a house and a car.
Who knew, her mother was not happy at all.
"Jingjiao, do you plan to stay here in the future?" Chen Guilan asked her directly. Su Jingjiao was silent for a moment, "Mom, let's talk about the future later..."
"Actually, you've already made up your mind and planned to stay here, right?" A mother knows a daughter best, and Chen Guilan still couldn't accept this fact. "When times were tough, we relied on each other. Now that times are better, you're going to be separated from me..."
"Mom, it's not like that." Su Jiaojiao hurriedly explained, "I didn't want to separate from you. I just wanted to wait until I've established myself here before taking you home."
