"I'm fine. I have enough food, clothes and everything I need. My family doesn't need to send me anything anymore. Didn't I tell you that I'm studying medicine now and I have my own salary? You don't have to worry about me. Just take care of yourself at home." Jiang Nian answered one by one.
Jiang Qinghe: "It's OK if you have it. You take good care of yourself. You don't have to worry about the family. Xiaodie has started working now and she also pays for the family's living expenses. Dad's salary is so high and he can't spend it all. If not my daughter, who will he spend it on?"
Jiang Nian felt very close to her as if it was a matter of course. "Okay, I'll take what Dad gave me. Please tell my brother and Xiaodie to stop sending me money. My sister-in-law is pregnant, and they will need money a lot in the future. Xiaodie has just started working, so her salary must not be high. She has to pay for the family's living expenses and give me 10 yuan every month. It's not certain whether she will have enough left. Since you can't spend all your money, just be nicer to mom. You are an old couple, and she has been with you for many years. We are all grown up now, so you should worry less and live a good life with mom..."
Jiang Qinghe said to her, "I've been in the countryside for a while, how come you're more talkative than me?"
Jiang Nian was not angry, "Then I am doing this for your own good. You are not young anymore, you have a bad temper and you are hypocritical. You don't know anything about life and you like to point fingers. You like to be petty and like to be the boss. You want others to listen to you. You are only better because you have a high salary and good treatment. Do you think that other than mom, which old lady can tolerate your temper?"
"I think you called me just to irritate me. I really loved you in vain." Jiang Qinghe couldn't help but reflect on himself. Is he really that bad?
"Hehe..." Jiang Nian smiled mischievously and sighed, "Dad, I'm serious. I'm not by your side, and my brother is a grown man, and my sister-in-law is pregnant. I have to rely on mom to take care of you, otherwise you won't even have a hot meal! You are my real dad, you care about me, and I naturally care about you too."
"You, your little mouth is much more talkative than before." Jiang Qinghe sighed, "Don't worry, your dad knows what's going on. I've been suppressing her for so many years because I'm afraid she'll be mean to you and your sister when she grows up. I have a bad temper, but apart from not letting her give birth to my child, I've never treated her and her daughter badly in terms of food and clothing. As long as she lives a peaceful life, I'm not a heartless person. Even if I die before her one day, I'll definitely make arrangements for her future and leave her enough money to rely on."
"My dad is in good health, don't talk nonsense."
"That's true. After taking the medicine you left for me before you left, I feel that my body is much stronger than before. My waist and back don't ache anymore. I used to catch a cold every year when the seasons changed, but this year I didn't have any symptoms and it was over."
The father and daughter talked on the phone for a long time until the person behind them urged them, "Comrade, you've been on the phone for more than 10 minutes, and the people behind you are still waiting."
The key point is that the phone bills are not small, and using them to talk nonsense, you are too rich, right?
Only then did Jiang Nian realize how quickly time passed.
Jiang Qinghe, who was standing opposite, was also reluctant to leave. However, looking at the factory director who had already walked around the door and returned, he was reluctant to say his final goodbye. "My daughter, the phone bill is quite expensive. I'm relieved that you're okay. Remember to write to your family or call them if you have any problems. Don't let yourself down."
"I understand, Dad. I'm hanging up now. Take care of yourself."
"Comrade, that's eleven minutes in total, twenty cents a minute, you give me two dollars and twenty cents."
Jiang Nian paid the money and walked out of the post office.
He took a deep breath and went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative.
At this time, Li Qing and his group had just left the supply and marketing cooperative after buying things, and missed Jiang Nian perfectly.
The supply and marketing cooperative in the city was much larger than the one in the town, and the management inside was more standardized. There were even more people, especially in the area selling snacks and candies. Jiang Nian couldn't even squeeze in.
She simply left the crowd and went to the watch counter. Without blinking an eye, she spent 40 yuan plus an additional ticket to buy a Seagull watch and an hourglass for two yuan.
This was bought for Ye Zhiqiu. To his own apprentice, he is like one of his own family, so Jiang Nian would never be stingy with the things that he deserves.
Moreover, Ye Zhiqiu really needed a watch to tell time accurately, so that she wouldn't have to take off her watch and give it to her every time.
