Since Qi Mengmeng had already decided to lend the house to Yu Xiaoman and his wife, she had no intention of occupying another one.
"We may not take some things away right away. Once we settle down in Beijing, we will take everything over." Qi Mengmeng said seriously, but Yu Xiaoman just listened.
In her mind, Qi Mengmeng was going to Beijing to attend college and would have to come back after graduation, so there was no way she could take all her things with her. However, it was good that Qi Mengmeng had this intention.
During lunch, Yu Xiaoman told Hunzi that Qi Mengmeng would rent the house to them.
The bastard was touched: "Sister-in-law, thank you."
To express his gratitude, the hunzi immediately stood up and was about to order another dish, but Gu Guizhi quickly grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going?"
"I'll go get some more food."
"There are still not enough dishes for you."
Gu Guizhi asked the gangster to sit down.
"You are going to have two children now, so be more down-to-earth in the future." Gu Guizhi was talking to the hunk. Qi Mengmeng and Yu Xiaoman looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.
There were four dishes and three large plates of dumplings on the table, which was more than enough for them to eat.
The dishes were ordered by Gu Guizhi and he had already paid before ordering. Hunzi felt bad and wanted to order more dishes, but Gu Guizhi did not give him the chance.
"If you want to thank us, cook me a delicious meal when I come back during summer vacation." Qi Mengmeng said to Hunzi with a smile.
"No problem, sister-in-law, we will definitely move out of the house when you come back..." The gangster almost patted his chest to make the promise.
What kind of talk is this? They have already decided to lend them the house, how can they take it back at any time?
"You don't have to move out. Since we've given you the place to live, just live here peacefully." Gu Guizhi patted the hunk's shoulder.
"Okay, I'll listen to the battalion commander." The gangster got excited and called out the original title again.
Gu Guizhi nodded and did not correct him.
After dinner, Hunzi went to work, and Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng sent Yu Xiaoman back home.
"Xiao Man, we plan to leave in five days. I'll give you the key before we leave, and you can arrange a time to move in then."
Qi Mengmeng told Yu Xiaoman the time they would leave.
Yu Xiaoman was reluctant to leave: "Mengmeng, I didn't expect you to leave so soon. I can't bear to see you go."
"What's the big deal? When the baby in your belly is born, you can bring the bastard and the two children to the capital to play with us."
When the time comes, we will just treat it as a trip. Qi Mengmeng kept the last half of the sentence in her mouth and didn’t say it out loud.
Yu Xiaoman smiled and said, "This is Beijing. We can go anywhere we want. Besides, Hunzi and I both have to go to work and raise two children. We should wait until you have a holiday to come back."
Qi Mengmeng always felt that Yu Xiaoman's good cooking skills were wasted in the cafeteria, but in this era, there are very few private restaurants, and everyone attaches great importance to formal work, so even if Qi Mengmeng had the intention, she didn't say it out loud.
Qi Mengmeng and Gu Guizhi sent Yu Xiaoman there and then went back with the two children.
An An and Kang Kang seldom go out, so everything they see outside is new to them. They open their eyes wide and look at everything outside.
But the weather was too cold, and Qi Mengmeng was worried that the two children would get sick, so she didn't stay outside for long and hurriedly took the two children home.
After arriving home, he first gave the two children some hot water to drink, then touched their hands and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that they were not cold.
We will be leaving in a few days, and it will be troublesome if the two children get sick.
"Mengmeng, when do you think mom will be back?" Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng sat down and talked about going out.
Originally, Qi Huilan said she would come back after the Chinese New Year, but I don’t know if she listened to Qi Mengmeng’s advice, she didn’t come back immediately after the Chinese New Year.
Qi Mengmeng didn't feel comfortable calling Liu Dajiang's office, as it would seem like she was urging Qi Huilan, so the two of them didn't know when Qi Huilan would come back.
"Or, I'll call Uncle Liu's office tomorrow to ask. If Mom hasn't come back yet, just let her go directly to Beijing." Qi Mengmeng said this, but she felt that with Qi Huilan's love for her two children, she would definitely come back early.
Although there was no problem for Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng to take care of two children at home, Qi Huilan was definitely worried about two adults taking care of two children on the train and carrying so much luggage.
Just in case, Qi Mengmeng asked Gu Guizhi to ask someone to buy three sleeper tickets.
As Qi Mengmeng expected, Qi Huilan came back the next day, but she only brought one bag.
"I have sent all the things to the capital." Qi Huilan said happily.
"I originally wanted to check it in via train, but they said my ticket didn't go to Beijing, so it couldn't be checked in. I took it to the post office to send it."
Anyway, the weather is cold now, so it doesn’t matter if the mailing time takes a little longer.
After Qi Huilan finished speaking, she washed her hands, took off her outer coat, and went to see the two children.
"Grandma's darlings, do you miss me?" Qi Huilan hugged the two children one by one first, and then sat down to talk to Qi Mengmeng and Gu Guizhi.
"I'm going to sell my job this time, and I won't have to go back to work anymore." Qi Huilan said this in a casual manner, but there was a hint of loneliness in her expression.
"Mom, why did you suddenly sell your job?" Qi Mengmeng was very surprised. She knew that Qi Huilan wanted to stay with her and take care of her, but Qi Huilan's job had already been suspended without pay. Why did she suddenly sell it?
"Alas, I take care of the children here every day, and I won't have many opportunities to go back in the future. So our head nurse came to me and wanted me to sell my job to her. She also said that I can't apply for unpaid leave now, but the money she offered was too little, so I sold it directly to Lao Liu's friend's child."
Qi Huilan recounted what had happened.
Of course she knew that the purpose of the head nurse's words was to make Qi Huilan sell for less money, but Qi Huilan was angry that she didn't tell the truth, so she simply sold it to someone else.
Qi Huilan's job is quite popular and sells very well.
"I was originally thinking that if I didn't sell the job, I would leave it to Kang Kang, but after seeing this, I decided to just sell the job and give the money to Kang Kang."
When Qi Huilan said this, her tone was full of regret.
Qi Mengmeng found it a little funny. It was only 1978, and it would take nearly 20 years for two children to need a job. She might even be caught up in the wave of layoffs.
Besides, given Qi Huilan’s age, there’s no way she could keep this job until then.
"Mom, I'll sell my job and support you from now on." Qi Mengmeng coaxed Qi Huilan, not wanting to make her too sad.
"Of course you have to support me." Qi Huilan meant that all the Qi family's belongings were with Qi Mengmeng, so of course she had to support herself, but Gu Guizhi understood it as Qi Mengmeng being Qi Huilan's only daughter and she had to support him.
So the moment Qi Huilan finished speaking, Gu Guizhi said, "Mom, you will live with us in the future. Don't worry, we will definitely take good care of you."
