Chapter 384: Business Trip - The Sick Young Auntie's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons in the Courtyard
After Lin Qing got off work, she walked downstairs and saw the man waiting for her at the door.
"Brother Nan, why are you here so early today? Are you waiting here to get off work early?"
"I left a few minutes early."
"Is that so? Let's go back!"
"Okay! How was your work today? Are you having trouble adapting?"
"It's not bad! These are jobs I'm used to doing, so it's not that difficult."
Cen Xi nodded.
The two walked all the way to the parking shed, unlocked the chain, then they both got on their bikes and rode away.
"Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative first to see if there are any new goods there?"
"Okay! My colleague just returned two candy coupons to me. I'll buy you two kilograms of White Rabbit milk candy later!" Cen Xi said as he held the handlebars with one hand and reached into his pocket with the other.
Lin Qing watched the man's actions intently, and after he took out the candy ticket, she quickly took the ticket from his outstretched hand.
Lin Qing was sitting in the back, feeling a little helpless. "Can't you just get off the car and give it to me later?"
"Hehe! I forgot, I forgot." Cen Xi really forgot. He just thought this action was not difficult, so he did it.
"Okay, then don't do this again next time. What if you don't hold it firmly and the candy ticket flies away?" The candy ticket is not easy to get.
"Don't worry, I'm holding it securely, how could it fly away?"
"Okay, I won't argue with you about this. Anyway, don't do this again next time."
"Okay, okay! I'll do whatever you say." Although Cen Xi was sure that he would not make such a low-level mistake, he still agreed obediently in order to make his wife happy.
"Would it be too much to buy two kilograms of White Rabbit? How about one kilogram of brown sugar?" Lin Qing felt that two kilograms was a bit too much, and one kilogram would be about right.
"It's all fine. I'll listen to you. Buy whatever you want." Since it was all bought for her anyway, Cen Xi had no opinion on how to arrange the two kilograms of sugar coupons.
When the two were riding their bikes past an alley in front of the factory, Lin Qing suddenly saw an acquaintance.
"Hey, Brother Nan, did you see that just now?" Lin Qing patted his back gently.
Cen Xi felt as if the muscles under his long-sleeved shirt were electrocuted and they stiffened unconsciously.
It was only because Lin Qing's attention was not here, otherwise he would have noticed his abnormality long ago.
Because the two of them had been busy traveling these days, Cen Xi couldn't bear to see her tired, so they hadn't had any close contact for a few days.
"What did you just say?" Cen Xi's voice was unconsciously a little hoarse.
"I just saw Gu Hang from our hospital walking with a strange girl. The distance between them seemed a bit intimate."
"Ah? Am I seeing things?" Although Cen Xi was not very familiar with Gu Hang, whom he had been living next door to for two years, he had never seen him do anything unfaithful before!
Now Lin Qing was a little suspicious that it was her own poor eyesight that made a mistake. She couldn't help but shook her head, "Maybe I just saw it wrong!"
Soon, the two put the matter behind them.
The supply and marketing cooperative that the two came to started another round of purchasing. They not only bought White Rabbit milk candy, but also brown sugar and some cakes.
“Isn’t that a bit too much?”
"No, just put it in the drawer or bedside table and eat it when you are hungry." Cen Xi didn't think it was too much. He was afraid that his wife would be hungry. In his opinion, Lin Qing was still too thin. It would be better for her to eat more!
"Why do I feel like something is wrong with you today?"
"Uh... I'm going on a business trip tomorrow."
"Business trip?" Lin Qing's good mood gradually faded.
"Um."
"Okay, so where are you going on this business trip?" Lin Qing quickly perked up and asked.
"There are quite a few cities! Guangzhou, Haicheng, Beijing, etc. I might have to go to all of them!"
Hearing this, Lin Qing no longer cared about being disappointed, "They are all big cities?"
"Well, I will bring you gifts in every city."
"Okay!" Lin Qing still admired the gifts from the big city.
However, Lin Qing still had a little worry, "Will it be dangerous for you on this business trip?" Just like the last time they went out.
"No, we are going out on a business trip this time and there are other people in the factory who want to go with us." The safety factor will be higher.
"Oh! Okay! That's good! No matter what, you must pay attention to safety!"
"good!"
After buying, they went home.
In the evening, Cen Xi also told Lin's father and mother that he was going on a business trip.
"Why do you have to go on a business trip just after you got back?" Lin's mother was obviously a little confused.
"There's no other way. Only our own people in the factory know those technologies, so we have to go to each place one by one." What Cen Xi said was absolutely correct.
This business trip was also because of the success of their previous project and the development of a new type of machine tool, which naturally involved the machine tool innovation of each factory. Not every worker in every factory could handle it easily, so they needed to travel one by one to help debug the new machines.
"Okay, my son-in-law is on a business trip for serious matters, so we, the head of the family, naturally cannot hold him back.
Don't worry, just stay on your business trip. We are at home, so you don't have to worry."
"Well, with you, dad and mom, here, I feel really relieved." Cen Xi once again felt that inviting his father-in-law and mother-in-law to live with him was a very, very correct decision.
Lin's father and mother laughed immediately.
The two elders were also in a very happy mood. At their age of retirement, they were already very satisfied without being pushed around by the younger generation. What’s more, they were very lucky to have met such a good son-in-law who was willing to accept them as their own!
Lin Qing sympathized with Cen Xi as he had to go on a business trip the next day, so she entertained him that night.
The next day, when Cen Xi got up, he felt refreshed, but Lin Qing, on the contrary, looked a little listless.
Cen Xi was glared at when he was helping Lin Qing get up, but he was willing to do it.
Seeing the state of the two, Lin's father and mother pretended not to see. They had also been through this since they were young, so of course they understood and sympathized with all this, and did not say anything.
Seeing this, Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief. After breakfast, he had recovered a lot by the time he went out.
"Huh~" She has to be in good shape today to face her new colleagues!
"What's wrong?" Cen Xi, as her bedmate, immediately noticed her abnormality.
"It's okay." Lin Qing didn't want him to worry about her when he was on a business trip.
"Just tell me the truth! I hope we can be honest with each other. Of course, I will be honest with you, except for those things that must be kept secret."
Lin Qing thought about it and put herself in other people's shoes. She didn't want Cen Xi to hide certain things from her, so she told him the truth.
"You mean Wang Jiaojiao went with the army? And then there's a new colleague in your office?"
"Um."
"This new colleague doesn't sound easy to get along with?"
"I haven't met the person yet, so I can't comment. But that's what other people say."
Cen Xi frowned instantly, this sounded like there might be trouble in their office again.
"If you feel you can get along with someone, then get along with them. If you can't get along with them, then stay away from them."
"Yeah, that's what I thought, too."
