Chapter 164: Goodbye
Of course, this is a later story.
Time went back to the present. Jiang Qinru made a video call with old lady Qiu Huilan as she had just said to Wang Ma, explaining that Huo Sili was on a business trip and would not be back until next Wednesday, so she would have to go back to the old house alone tomorrow.
When the old lady heard that Horsley would not come tomorrow, she obviously didn't have much objection.
"Okay, okay, Qinqin, just come, he doesn't care." Qiu Huilan smiled.
The background on the other side of the screen looks like a home theater in an old house.
The light flickered, and Jiang Qin could still clearly hear the special sound effects coming from the speakers.
Knowing that the old lady was watching a movie at home, he stopped disturbing her and spoke quickly.
"Okay, grandma, you can continue watching the movie. That's all for now."
Qiu Huilan nodded, glanced at the movie screen, and looked back, "Oh, okay, bye then, see you tomorrow Qinqin, and go to bed early at night, staying up late is not good for your health."
"Well, I'll go to bed early. See you tomorrow, grandma." Jiang Qin smiled sweetly and waved to Qiu Huilan on the screen.
Qiu Huilan also smiled lovingly and waved, "Hey, see you tomorrow, bye."
After saying that, he hung up the video.
Jiang Qin stared at the phone that had returned to its original interface before dialing the video for a while, then got up and went upstairs.
She originally planned to hire more people - in addition to bodyguards, there would also be drivers and nannies.
After all, she was thinking at the time that human resources were still quite scarce abroad, which meant that generally one person would not be willing to take on multiple roles.
But during this period of time, she searched and found that this matter was not a question of money at all, but that it was very difficult to find those people abroad according to her requirements.
Just like the good housemaids among the rich in China are not circulated to the outside world——
Finding the right person is not about whether she pays a lot of money or not. She can find someone who suits her taste in the job market.
So, she also gave in to reality.
After thinking carefully about it during this period, just yesterday, she contacted the foreign bodyguard who had passed the interview before.
She will communicate with the other party and ask whether he is willing to serve as a driver, and she will give him a corresponding increase in salary.
Fortunately, the other party was quite willing and said that he happened to have a car, so she wouldn't have to go abroad and buy a car. As for how she should make the subsequent arrangements, she was the employer and she had the final say.
In short, he has no objection to raising the wages of part-time drivers.
So the matter was settled for now, and now she just needed to find a nanny.
And as for the house, luckily, the house she had her eyes on became vacant yesterday.
Because the location is a bit remote, there is not much interest in renting it. Currently, the website shows that there is only one person who wants to rent it. Well, that person is her - she can work from home and does not need to go to the company every day.
So after learning about the situation of the house yesterday, she immediately contacted the property manager of the rental company, went through the procedures and paid the deposit, and the matter of the house came to a temporary end.
Therefore, now, the only thing she needed to solve was finding a nanny.
Fortunately, she doesn't really need a nanny for the time being. But considering that her belly will get bigger, it will be inconvenient to do anything, and I don't know if her health will be worse than it is now.
So I thought, I should deal with things first while everything is still good.
But reality always likes to give ideals a blow on the head.
Until going to bed that night, Jiang Qin had browsed through hundreds of nanny resumes but hadn't found a job she liked.
I feel a little depressed, but when I think about the fact that I can apply for divorce next Wednesday and all plans can proceed steadily, the clarity of mind is greater than the depression.
Jiang Qin turned off the phone, turned off the lights, closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.
When I opened my eyes the next day, I was woken up by the alarm clock.
After finishing breakfast alone, I was about to take the bodyguard's car to go there, but a car drove up outside the gate.
A familiar voice sounded, Jiang Qin was startled, looked towards the door, and saw it was Zhou Fu, the housekeeper of the old house.
"Uncle Zhou, good morning." Jiang Qin greeted him politely.
This kind of situation had happened before, so Jiang Qin was not particularly surprised - Huo Sili was on a business trip before and would not be back on Sunday. The old lady was probably afraid that she would go to the old house alone and run into Yuan Lianqing and others.
If she is going to be bullied, they will send someone to pick her up and support her.
"Good morning, Madam Second Young Master, please get in the car." Zhou Fu said with a compassionate smile, respectfully opened the car door, and gestured for Jiang Qin to get in.
Seeing this, I thought about asking for a divorce from the old lady after seeing her later.
Jiang Qin couldn't help but feel complicated for a moment, but of course she couldn't show it at this moment.
A wealthy family's divorce involves too many things, so before things are finalized, it is naturally better for as few people as possible to know about it.
Jiang Qin got into the car, Zhou Fu gently closed the door from outside and returned to the passenger seat.
The car drove quickly and steadily towards the Huo family's old house.
At the same time, in the southern suburbs villa.
Huo Sili finished his breakfast sitting alone at the dining table. When he stood up to get in the car, He Xu next to him reminded him.
"Mr. Huo, you forgot again that you are abroad now and cannot return to the old house today."
Horsley pursed his lips.
He Xu noticed Huo Sili's expression and his heart instantly rose.
Tsk, why is he so talkative? Damn it, he’s going to get scolded again.
But suddenly, Horsley turned around and walked back without saying anything or even looking at him.
He Xu's heart finally relaxed, but at this moment, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He had been with Horsley for many years and had seen with his own eyes the relationship between his master and his wife, whom he had married in a flash and then in secret, grow stronger, then become stable, and fall in love. Then he also saw with his own eyes his master break up with his wife suddenly and end up in a cold war.
As for this cold war, it was fine before, but this time, I don’t know what happened, it actually turned into a divorce!
If you divorce, your marriage certificate will become a divorce certificate. You will no longer be husband and wife, and your fate will be over.
When he thought of this, He Xu, as the closest outsider, couldn't help but sigh and feel anxious and uncomfortable.
But, in this matter, he wanted to intervene, wanted to say something, but he couldn't -
Because up to now, he, the outsider closest to the two of them, really didn't understand what was going on between them!
On this side, the car was parked outside the old house.
The sky is blue and the clouds are white. Except for the low temperature, the weather today is undoubtedly quite good.
It is suitable for walking in the garden and enjoying the flowers with the elderly.
Just as she was about to enter the old house, Jiang Qin paused and looked up at the door plaque of the Huo family's old house.
Suddenly she remembered the day when she first came to the old house. At that time, her grandmother Xiao Yuxiu had just passed away. She was led out of the car by Qiu Huilan, and before entering the gate, she looked up at the plaque on the door of the old house.
But because my whole state was not right at that time, I would cry from time to time, and I couldn't control my tears and they kept flowing down.
So, when she looked at the door plaque, it was blurry.
Although she was crying at that time, her heart was more or less warm because she felt a sense of security, a security similar to that of having her family around her, a security that was not like floating duckweed.
But now, Jiang Qin found that his mood had changed, and the change was great.
At that time, she always felt that after her grandmother passed away, her world suddenly became so empty, as if everything had become meaningless.
But now, that feeling is completely gone.
At this moment, Jiang Qin thought that perhaps meeting Huo Sili was also a kind of tempering given to her by God.
The love and liking in the past were not fake, but the dislike and dislike now are not fake either.
Let’s say goodbye here. As for whether we will meet again in the future, I don’t care anymore because I don’t care about it anymore.
Jiang Qin stepped over the high threshold and walked straight towards the main building with firm steps.
