On her first day back at work, there wasn't much going on at the office. I guess everyone wanted her to get used to things, so she did her best to get everything done.
So Su He sat down and looked at the cases the office had received during her leave of absence, and the morning passed just like that.
She didn't eat lunch in the canteen, but instead took a bus back to the courtyard.
Yes, she didn't even ride a bicycle because she was in a hurry.
The bus is faster; it only takes fifteen minutes to get there.
When they got home, they saw Grandma Su waiting at the door, holding Yuan Yuan who had just been crying.
As soon as he saw her, he said, "You're finally back! Yuan Yuan didn't drink much milk powder this morning and has been waiting for you."
When Su He looked at Yuan Yuan, she indeed looked aggrieved, with tears still clinging to her eyes.
She immediately felt sorry for him, picked him up, and went inside to feed him.
After he finished eating, Su He coaxed him to sleep. When she came out, Grandma Su had already prepared the meal.
Lin Jingyan has been quite busy these past few days and hasn't been bringing lunch back for her, so it's just the two of them, grandmother and granddaughter, here right now.
Thinking of the scene she saw when she came back, Su He said somewhat embarrassedly, "Grandma, it must have been hard taking care of the child."
Mrs. Su He laughed when she heard this, "What's so hard about it? It's not hard at all. Yuan Yuan is very easy to take care of. He's just not used to it yet on his first day. I guess he'll be fine in a few days."
I thought about it. Yuanyuan is still young and sleeps a lot. Once he falls asleep, I won't have much to do. I was thinking, maybe I should go to the street and pick up some tasks to do. I saw that gluing matchboxes is very simple, and I even asked around; I can do it too.
Su He wanted to refuse as soon as she heard this, as she didn't want Grandma Su to work so hard. But then she thought that since they were all at work, Grandma Su would be quite bored at home by herself, so it would be good to earn some pocket money to pass the time.
So she nodded in agreement, "That's fine, but Grandma, be careful not to work too hard. Keep the money you earn for yourself. When my grandpa comes next time, he can stay here with you. Anyway, spring planting is over now, so there's not much work to do in the fields."
Grandma Su refused without even thinking, “Oh, there’s no need for him to come. I’m so old, why would I need to accompany him? There’s not much work to do. Your grandfather can earn five or six work points every day.”
Su He knew what she was thinking as soon as she heard it; she was simply worried that their expenses would increase if Grandpa came.
So he said directly, "Grandma, you can't think like that. How much money can you earn with five or six work points? If Grandpa comes, he can help you take care of Yuanyuan. You can earn more by gluing matchboxes than this. I heard that Sister Song in the front yard can earn twenty or thirty yuan a month!"
Grandma Su was immediately intrigued. "Really? You can earn that much?"
Su He nodded. "You can ask if you don't believe me, but I don't want you to do too much. Although it's not troublesome, it's tiring if you do it for a long time. You're already working hard enough taking care of the child, so this is just to earn some pocket money."
Even so, how could Grandma Su bear to give up such a good opportunity to make money?
Although things have improved a bit this year, they still haven't saved much money and have outstanding debts. Su Mu and his family are getting on in years, and they need money for everything from getting married to finding jobs.
Thinking this way, Grandma Su was immediately tempted.
He immediately said, "Okay, when your grandpa comes again, let him stay too." That way, it will be easier for the two of them, one to look after the child and the other to glue the matchboxes. Besides, they can bring some food from home, so it won't all be spent by the young couple.
Su He was unaware of Old Madam Su's plans, and breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing her words.
"Okay, then let Grandpa stay here for a while longer."
