Chapter 234
In this way, it would be easier for Liang's mother to get along with him.
Liang Qiurun said, "I'll look for a babysitter."
However, it was difficult to find a nanny. In the end, Liang Qiurun found a 19-year-old female comrade named Liang Lanxiang from a distant relative.
The other family arranged a marriage for her, but she didn't want it. She would rather go and be a nanny for Liang's mother than get married at home.
Jiang Meishu also went to see Liang Lanxiang, who had a round face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. She was wearing patched clothes and was holding her trouser legs in a somewhat restrained manner.
She called out "Aunt" in a low voice.
Jiang Meishu looked at Liang Qiurun in surprise. Liang Qiurun nodded, "You're right. Her father and I are cousins from another family."
Jiang Meishu paused while holding her hand, because she noticed that Liang Lanxiang's hands were even more calloused than her mother's. She was silent for a moment, "I'll call you Lanxiang. From now on, I'll have to trouble you to follow Second Madam."
The second wife is Liang's mother.
Liang Lanxiang nodded, "I will take good care of Second Grandma."
"I used to take care of my grandma at home." He paused and added, "My grandma is paralyzed, but I've taken good care of her. She hasn't even developed bedsores on her back or buttocks."
Jiang Meishu sighed slightly in her heart. She wanted to praise the other person, but she couldn't find the words.
Because the task of taking care of grandparents should not fall on the shoulders of the grandchildren. It is simply the absence of the previous generation that has caused her to fill the gap.
She simply stopped talking about the topic and went straight to the topic of salary. "You will be taking care of my mother personally. Basically, you need to be with her 24 hours a day, but you don't need to cook or do housework, because there will be others to share these chores. You just need to accompany my mother, keep an eye on her, and never let her leave alone."
"As for salary, we have a three-month probation period. If you're suitable, your salary will be increased to eighty-one months."
The reason why the salary is so high is because you need to be there all day long. Even if you don’t need to do much work, the loss of freedom is inevitable.
Therefore, the salary Jiang Meishu offered was almost half higher than the market average.
Liang Lanxiang was also a little shocked. "Such a high salary?"
"Yes, plus you have to leave your hometown."
Liang Lanxiang said honestly, "I value leaving my hometown. If I don't leave my hometown, my parents will take me back to marry me off."
Jiang Meishu said, "No, if you follow us, no one can catch you and take you back to marry."
"Of course, the premise is that you can stand on your own."
"I'm sure I can stand."
Liang Lanxiang assured.
It was not enough for them to just decide on the candidate, they also had to let Liang's mother come and take a look. Liang's mother knew that Liang Lanxiang was a child with a miserable life.
She was honest and simple-minded, not cunning, so he decided to marry her.
The person to take care of Liang's mother has been determined.
Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun began to count the people, and there were quite a lot of people on the list of people going south this time.
She, Liang Qiurun, Liang's mother, Uncle Lin, Shen Mingying and his wife, Yang Xiangdong and Zhao Xiaojuan were also going to the south.
Among Liang Qiurun's former subordinates, only Director Yang and Section Chief Chen agreed to go south, and they were both decisive.
Once the number of people was confirmed, there were almost ten people in total, and they all wanted to buy tickets.
Young people bought hard seats, and older people bought sleeper berths.
It took more than ten certificates just to buy train tickets. Everyone went to their own unit to get them, and Liang Qiurun would take care of those that were inconvenient to get.
The departure time is set for the 19th day of the first lunar month.
There were many people along the way, so it wasn't that boring. Because of the relationship between Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun, most of the people who came this time were there to flatter Liang's mother.
Old people love to be lively, and Liang's mother is no exception. She smiled almost all the time during the three days on the train.
When we arrived in Guangzhou on the morning of the 22nd, everyone's thick cotton jackets were no longer wearable and they all took them off.
Liang's mother even said bluntly, "Why do I feel that the air in Guangzhou is much more comfortable than in our capital?"
The air in the capital is cold and dry. When you breathe it in, it is chilly and dry.
But you can smell the air in Guangzhou as soon as you get off the car. It is warm and moist, and it feels very comfortable when you breathe it into your nasal cavity.
Jiang Meishu smiled and said, "Here in the south, there's a lot of water vapor and the air is very humid, while in the north it's the opposite.
Liang's mother said subconsciously, "Then I came to the right place."
It's comfortable to breathe here.
When Jiang Meishu heard this, she couldn't help but exchange glances with Liang Qiurun, and both of them were a little happy.
I feel that Liang’s mother’s trip was not in vain.
There are so many people, so the arrangements have to be divided into several parts.
Liang's mother, Uncle Lin, and Liang Lanxiang, who was her personal caregiver, were brought directly to the Little White House.
Jiang Chenliang, Zhao Xiaojuan, and Yang Xiangdong were arranged by Jiang Meishu to live in the small courtyard where her mother lived.
But with more people, the small courtyard might not be able to accommodate them anymore, so we need to look for a new house. But these are things to do after we settle down.
As for Director Yang and Section Chief Chen, they went to Hongtai Dormitory with Liang Qiurun and were temporarily settled there. Liang Qiurun was still thinking about where they would work in the future.
After the destinations of these people are decided, they go to their respective locations.
Liang Qiurun led his mother and Uncle Lin back to the Little White Building. When his mother saw the Little White Building, she was stunned for a long time. "Is this a small Western-style building?"
She lived there when she was young, but after her mother remarried, she never lived in this kind of house again.
Liang Qiurun nodded, "Yes, this was a concession in the early years, so the houses were built according to Western styles."
Liang's mother was a little moved. She went up the stairs and looked inside with a happy look on her face. "This kind of house is good to live in."
It is more comfortable to live in than a siheyuan. Even if it is a siheyuan for half of one's life, Liang's mother still prefers a small Western-style building.
The house is fully equipped, so you don't need to go out.
Liang Qiurun nodded and led Liang's mother into the house. Liang's mother and Uncle Lin were both old, so they were arranged to sit on the first floor.
There are banana trees, lychee trees and mango trees growing outside the first floor.
Although it is winter, Guangzhou is like spring all year round, and these trees are lush and green, which is very eye-catching.
Liang's mother was a little surprised. "Why are the trees here all green? Unlike where we are, they are all gray."
Liang Qiurun, "This is what it's like when all four seasons are like spring."
Liang's mother was like a curious baby, touching here and looking there. "What kind of tree is this? Why are the leaves so big? I have never seen leaves this big before."
It’s not entirely true to say it’s a tree, because the main trunk is not visible.
Jiang Meishu explained good-naturedly, "This is a banana tree."
"What about this one? It's so high, and it looks like there's fruit hanging on it."
"These are mango trees. A few of the trees are bearing fruit early, which wasn't the case in previous years." She showed Liang's mother outside. "There's a garden on the first floor and a balcony on the second floor. You can grow vegetables and flowers here."
Liang's mother was originally a little confused about life in Guangzhou. She came here simply because she didn't want to hurt her children's feelings, but after Jiang Meishu's introduction.
She looked at the surroundings and actually liked them.
"Not only are the flowers blooming here in the spring, but there are also green trees and shade. You can grow flowers, bask in the sun, and pick fruit from the trees."
This made Liang's mother feel a little dreamy. It was difficult to survive in the capital during the winter these days.
It's not that the capital is bad, but the weather in the north is cold. Winter comes in November, and by December, it is freezing cold. Not to mention fruits, it is difficult to even see green trees.
Mother Liang looked around, and the smile on her face grew wider. "It's really nice here."
It's a completely different place from the north.
Seeing that she liked it, Jiang Meishu breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as you like it, Mom, you can talk to Uncle Lin about this place first. I'm going to take my dad and Xiaojuan to find my mom."
Liang's mother said, "Go quickly, you don't have to worry about me."
Before Jiang Meishu left, she gave Liang Qiurun a wink. Liang Qiurun understood immediately. He knew that Jiang Meishu wanted him to be responsible for the next things.
Not only did she have to explain things to Liang's mother, but she also had to arrange things for Liang Lanxiang. However, Jiang Meishu didn't care about any of this.
I really don't have time.
Jiang Chenliang, Zhao Xiaojuan and Yang Xiangdong were still waiting outside.
After Jiang Meishu came out, Zhao Xiaojuan immediately ran over and asked, "Sister Meilan, have you been living here since you came to Yangcheng?"
Jiang Meishu hummed, "I'll live here in the early stages."
"Won't you stay in the later stage?"
Zhao Xiaojuan immediately asked a follow-up question.
Jiang Meishu raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong?"
She knew Zhao Xiaojuan had something else in mind. Zhao Xiaojuan hesitated, "I just want to discuss something with you. I haven't lived in such a nice house before. Sister Meilan, can you let me move in too?"
Zhao Xiaojuan swore that she had never seen such a nice house in her life until she was in her twenties.
Jiang Meishu didn't answer, but looked at her for a moment, which made Zhao Xiaojuan feel uncomfortable all over. She smiled and said, "Xiaojuan, although there is a room here, Xiaojuan, do you think this is okay?"
Zhao Xiaojuan suddenly stopped talking and lowered her head. "I know it's not good, but I just like it here too much."
Jiang Meishu became more serious. "First of all, this house is not mine, nor is it Liang Qiurun's. It's the workroom assigned to him by the other party."
"Let's wait until later. If we have the conditions to buy this house, or buy another small white building, you can come and live here, but it's not appropriate now."
And once Zhao Xiaojuan arrives, will her parents take her in?
Her mother-in-law has already moved in, so it seems unfair and not fair if her parents are not invited to live in.
But it would be even more troublesome to bring them in to live. Her mother was still taking care of Shen Xiaoju for her sister. Once her mother moved in, her sister Jiang Meilan and Shen Xiaoju would also move in. Once they arrived, Shen Zhanlie, who came to purchase goods every time, would also move in because his wife and daughter were here.
It will be even more troublesome then, with Zhao Xiaojuan involved.
have to.
This is not a home, it's just a big pot of stew.
Zhao Xiaojuan was stunned when she heard this. "I'm an outsider, so I can understand why you don't let me live here, but can't you let my uncle and aunt come and live here?"
Jiang Meishu hummed, and when she saw Jiang Chenliang looking over, she said bluntly, "Dad, it's not appropriate."
"It's not that I'm stingy, but one move affects the whole body. If you want to come over for a few days later, that's definitely fine, but you can't stay permanently."
At this moment, Jiang Meishu was more sober than ever before.
If her relatives from her mother's side moved in, this little white building would no longer be pure.
That's not just one family, that's three, four or five families together. The more people there are, the more conflicts there are.
If Jiang Meishu wants to live a good life, she must not agree to let them come.
"Then why can your mother-in-law come?"
Zhao Xiaojuan asked unconvincedly.
Jiang Meishu gave her a strange look. "Xiaojuan, you are twenty-three, not eight. My mother-in-law is here because, firstly, she is Liang Qiurun's mother. Secondly, she has Alzheimer's disease and no one cares for her in the capital. I brought her to Guangzhou to recuperate."
"Uncle Lin and Liang Lanxiang both serve her. Why do you think she's allowed to stay here?"
Zhao Xiaojuan subconsciously wanted to say, the same goes for her uncle and aunt.
"I know what you're going to say." Jiang Meishu was very calm. "You said the man's parents came, but my parents didn't. Am I at a disadvantage?"
"But Zhao Xiaojuan, you only see one side. I can be filial to my parents and even buy them a house later, but I can't let everyone live together. Do you know why?"
"Why?"
Jiang Meishu didn't explain, but said, "Think about it yourself. If you can't figure this out, then you really have such a smart brain in vain."
After saying this, she walked out the door.
Zhao Xiaojuan couldn't figure it out, and she had no choice but to chase after him and ask him.
In fact, Jiang Chenliang felt a little aggrieved at first, but he soon understood the meaning of his daughter's handling of this matter.
He saw Jiang Meishu go to the front to find a car, and immediately scolded Zhao Xiaojuan, "When you get married in the future, your parents, your brother, and we will all live in your lover's house. Do you agree?"
Zhao Xiaojuan yelled, "How can that be possible?"
Now that her whole family is gone, how can she still live?
"You know now? Don't you understand your sister's difficulties?"
"It's already great that she can bring all of us here. What else do you want?"
Zhao Xiaojuan also realized that she had gone too far, and she finally understood why the other party asked her to use her brain.
"Uncle, did I offend my sister?"
She has to rely on her sister to come here.
"That's not the case." Jiang Chenliang said, "From now on, please don't say such stupid things."
Zhao Xiaojuan hummed softly, and now she felt a little regretful. Why did she make such an unreasonable request?
She was about to chase after her and apologize to Jiang Meishu when she saw Jiang Meishu suddenly stop.
She looked over curiously.
Jiang Meishu had just walked a short distance when Qiao Jiahui drove over in a black Crown car. It was very eye-catching. Before he even got there, the car horn started beeping.
He leaned forward, revealing his slicked-back hair, gold-rimmed glasses, and a suit. His peach blossom eyes twinkled as he beamed, "Sister-in-law, I guessed you'd be back today."
"Hurry up, come up and I'll walk you a little way."
Jiang Meishu didn't expect that she would run into Qiao Jiahui when she came out to look for a car. She hesitated a little, "Jiahui, I'm going to my mother's place. It's a bit far. Can you give me a ride?"
If the other party had something wrong, she might as well just go find another car.
Qiao Jiahui said bluntly, "It's convenient. What else can I do all day? I'm just bored chatting and gossiping. Come up."
Jiang Meishu then nodded and agreed, "Thank you, Jiahui. There are a few more people behind. I'll call them over."
She called Jiang Chenliang, Zhao Xiaojuan, and Yang Xiangdong over.
Jiang Meishu asked them to get in the car. Jiang Chenliang didn't know how to drive, but he had ridden in Liang Qiurun's car before, so he was not too reserved.
It was Zhao Xiaojuan's first time riding in this kind of car. She immediately stood at the door and touched it again and again, just thinking that the lines of this black car were so smooth.
I couldn't help but sigh.
"This little car is really nice."
Qiao Jiahui naturally saw this scene. He leaned forward and greeted her with a charming smile, "Hi, pretty girl, you have really good taste. Isn't my wife pretty?"
He also patted the car body with a proud look on his face.
Qiao Jiahui has a really good appearance, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is very dashing. In addition, he wears black glasses and looks at people with half-turned eyes, revealing a pair of peach blossom eyes. He can truly be called a dashing young man.
Zhao Xiaojuan looked over subconsciously and was immediately stunned. She was so stunned that she couldn't even answer.
This made Qiao Jiahui couldn't help but chuckle, "Oh, this guy is still shy, but he's so handsome."
Zhao Xiaojuan had never experienced such a situation before. When Qiao Jiahui teased her, her face turned red and she lowered her head, not even daring to look at him.
He hesitated for a long time and couldn't utter a complete word.
This was very interesting to Qiao Jiahui. The girls he met in Hong Kong were more bold than each other, and there was no such thing as shyness.
So when he looked at Zhao Xiaojuan, there was also some interest in his eyes.
Jiang Meishu saw something and immediately interrupted him sternly, "Qiao Jiahui, stop being so dissolute. This is my cousin. Don't use those tricks on her."
After saying that, he didn't forget to explain to Zhao Xiaojuan, "Don't be fooled by his appearance. He looks like a decent person, but he changes girlfriends one after another."
After saying that, fearing that Zhao Xiaojuan wouldn't listen, he added, "Zhao Xiaojuan, if you really dare to find a partner like Qiao Jiahui, I'll see if your mother doesn't break your legs."
Jiang Meishu's words instantly calmed Miss Zhao's floating passion.
She quickly glanced at Qiao Jiahui and then sat down in the last seat. After she went in, Jiang Chenliang also went in, and finally Yang Xiangdong.
He has been very silent since he got on the train, not at all like his sunny self before.
Jiang Meishu also learned something from Liang Rui, but she didn't find a chance to talk to Yang Xiangdong. She thought that she would deal with each thing one by one when she had time later.
After seeing that the three of them were seated firmly, Jiang Meishu went to the co-pilot seat.
Qiao Jiahui's face was full of resentment, "Sister-in-law, as soon as I knew you were coming, I came to pick you up and send you off. You still said this to me, it's really hurtful."
"How can I change girlfriends one after another? Don't they just come to me on their own? I can't refuse them. Can you blame me for that? I can only say that I am too charming."
Jiang Meishu took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for picking me up."
She looked sideways at him and said directly, "But Jiahui, you should understand that rabbits don't eat grass near their burrows."
Zhao Xiaojuan had just entered society and had little contact with the opposite sex before. Someone like her would not last more than a single round in Qiao Jiahui's phone.
Jiang Meishu knew it very well.
With Zhao Xiaojuan's family background, it would be impossible for her to enter the Qiao family in Hong Kong, so in the end she could only get hurt.
It would be fine if Zhao Xiaojuan was not brought up by her, but since she was the one who brought her up, she naturally had to be responsible for her.
After hearing what Jiang Meishu said, Qiao Jiahui became serious for once and held the steering wheel. "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I will definitely not act coquettishly in front of you in the future."
Jiang Meishu, "..."
She really didn't want to talk anymore. She glanced at Zhao Xiaojuan in the rearview mirror and found that Zhao Xiaojuan was secretly observing Qiao Jiahui.
Jiang Meishu sighed softly. She hoped that Zhao Xiaojuan would not fall in love with Qiao Jiahui, the playboy, because of this side of her.
Because it is destined to have no results.
It only takes fifteen minutes to drive from Xiaobailou to the courtyard.
Because it was noon and they had not yet set up their stall, the small courtyard was quite lively. Before I got close, I could hear people talking and washing vegetables.
Jiang Meishu wanted to give her mother a surprise, so she asked Jiang Chenliang and the others to stand outside first. "Dad, wait a moment. I'll go call Mom out."
She blinked.
Jiang Chenliang understood immediately. He stood where he was and subconsciously straightened his clothes. He was clearly about to meet his lifelong partner, but at this moment he actually felt a little nervous.
In the yard.
Jiang Meishu trotted in and went straight to the room where her mother lived. Wang Limei was packing up things for the stall and moving goods in a dirty coat. Because her back was facing away, Wang Limei didn't notice Jiang Meishu coming in.
Jiang Meishu raised her hands from behind and covered her eyes, "Guess who I am?"
As soon as she opened her mouth, Wang Limei noticed it and dropped the box of goods in her hands to the ground with a thud. "Meishu?"
The voice is small.
"Why are you back?"
"When did you come back, kid? Why didn't you tell me?"
Jiang Meishu, "I came back this morning."
She took Wang Limei's hand and was about to go out, "Mom, I'm taking you out to meet someone."
Wang Limei didn't want to see anyone. Seeing her daughter coming from her hometown, she naturally had a lot of questions in her mind. She asked them like a machine gun, "Is your father okay at home? Where's your brother? Is everything good in the south?"
Jiang Meishu didn't answer, but just pulled her out.
The small courtyard was separated by a wall, so Jiang Chenliang outside naturally heard his wife's concern, and the tension and uneasiness in his heart gradually dissipated.
"Why don't you answer, kid?"
Wang Limei was a person with a quick temper, so she refused to leave immediately.
Fortunately, they left the yard. Jiang Meishu was not angry. She smiled and said gently, "Mom, it's useless to ask me. If you want to ask if my dad is okay, ask him yourself."
"How do I-" asked.
Before she finished the word, Wang Limei saw Jiang Chenliang standing outside the courtyard wall. She thought she was seeing things and rubbed her eyes. "Old Jiang? Old Jiang?"
"Why are you here?"
She asked several times in a row, then rushed to Jiang Chenliang and took his hand. "You stupid man, didn't you say you wouldn't come to Guangzhou? You want to stay where you are?"
"Why did you come to Yangcheng?!"
Jiang Chenliang, who was never good at delaying, sang a sweet word, "I miss you."
When he said this, he looked into Wang Limei's eyes. Wang Limei's old face turned red and she subconsciously turned around to look at the children. She saw that the children were all staring at her with smiles on their faces.
She rubbed her burning face, raised her hand and slapped Jiang Chenliang on the shoulder, "You are an old couple, and your child is already this big."
"Why are you still saying such embarrassing things?"
Jiang Chenliang held her hand and said, "Don't be ashamed. I'm telling the truth."
The old couple had never been apart in their entire lives, and these three years of separation were the longest they had ever been apart.
"From now on, wherever you are, there I will be."
Jiang Chenliang whispered.
Wang Limei was almost moved to tears when she heard these words. She turned her head away and wiped her eyes. "You are so old, yet you still say sweet words."
They had been married their entire lives, but she had never heard of it.
Jiang Chenliang grinned.
Jiang Meishu next to her also laughed.
Wang Limei was embarrassed by the laughter and raised her hand to hit Jiang Meishu. Jiang Meishu teased her, "Mom, you only saw my dad, didn't you see this person?"
She pushed Zhao Xiaojuan in front of Wang Limei.
Wang Limei was stunned for a moment, "Xiaojuan?"
"Why did you come to Guangzhou?"
Zhao Xiaojuan was a little reserved and embarrassed. "I didn't pass the college entrance examination, so my mother asked me to follow Sister Meilan to Guangzhou to try my luck."
Because if she hadn't come, at the age of 23, she would have been getting married soon.
She didn't say this, but Wang Limei understood. She said with emotion, "It's good to come here. Yangcheng is developing rapidly. Whether it's making money or finding a partner, it's more convenient than back home."
"Come over when the time comes, and make some money while you carefully choose a suitable partner."
When it comes to choosing a partner, Zhao Xiaojuan subconsciously thinks of Qiao Jiahui's playful and handsome face.
It looks really nice.
