When the old mother heard this, her eyes instantly turned red and she felt very reluctant.
"Can't you just wait for Aqi to come back before moving back? Let your brothers and others take you back these few days, just like when you were in junior high school."
Several brothers expressed their willingness to take turns picking her up and dropping her off in the morning and evening, allowing her to stay at home for a few more days without worry.
Chen Xingling shook his head: "No, no, let's go to the city and settle down first. My brothers have to go to the sea early in the morning, sell fish later, and sometimes go to the city to work in the afternoon. I don't want to bother them all the time. I'll learn about the situation first, and then slowly make arrangements."
Chen Sanshui looked at Xiao Huzi hesitantly and asked, "Then-then let this kid stay here, we will help you take care of him."
"Let's go into the city together for now." Chen Xingling had obviously thought about this issue and said, "Ayi will go with us. When Aqi comes back, we will discuss the plan. If I don't have much homework, I plan to bring Xiaohuzi with me."
Gu Yi has been in Yucheng for several days. We need to let him get familiar with the environment at the shipyard and see if he is interested in staying.
Of course, many things still need to wait for Gu Qi to come back to discuss, so there is no rush for now.
Her son is very smart and has a good ability to adapt to the environment. But she dare not let him run wild here for a long time, fearing that she will not be able to control him or teach him well in the future.
The smarter the child is, the more he should be nurtured in an environment where rules and regulations are followed. If he is indulged or left unattended for a long time, he is very likely to grow up in a wrong way.
Gu Yi held the chicken wings in his hand and raised it, saying, "Don't worry, everyone! Before I go back to my hometown, I will definitely help my sister-in-law take good care of little Tiger."
"His brother-in-law, don't go back to your hometown. Just stay in Yucheng like your brother did!"
"That's right! If you like seafood so much, you can eat it every day if you stay!"
Gu Yi hesitated and hesitantly said, "I...I'll think about it."
"What are you still thinking about? Just stay here! I'll introduce you to a beautiful girl as your wife later!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Gu Yi blushed and stopped: "No, no..."
Liu Peiyun's mother seemed to be more careful and gave advice to her daughter beside her.
"The house has not been occupied for almost a month, right? It must be very dirty. Since you have decided to go back tomorrow, let us go with you to clean it up."
Then, she looked at her sons and said, "Aqi is not here, and his brother-in-law can't help much alone. Who of you is free tomorrow and can go over and help clean up?"
"I'm free!"
"Me too!"
Several sisters-in-law expressed their willingness to help clean the doors, windows and floors. They also said that they had never been to a shipyard and didn't know what the newly built suite in their sister-in-law's house looked like, so they might as well take the opportunity to go over and get acquainted with the route.
Chen Xingling naturally welcomed them warmly and said with a smile: "Let's go together. I went in to take a look today. The place is quite large, with three bedrooms and two living rooms, and a large balcony facing the river."
So, the whole family decided to go out together tomorrow to send my sister-in-law back to the city.
It was late at night, and after playing all day, little tiger was sleeping soundly.
Chen Xingling came out of the space and put the three sets of bedding he had picked out with great difficulty into a snakeskin bag beside him. He also took out some daily necessities and stuffed them in. He was a little tired after finishing his work.
There was no shortage of high-end quilts and a dazzling array of bedding in the supermarket, but most of them were too beautifully and ostentatiously made, so she could only try to pick more ordinary ones with simpler patterns.
Finally, she picked out a set of playful and childish clothes for her son, which took her more than half an hour!
The suite was in the first staff building, with a nice name, "First Floor by the River". It had six floors in total, and their family lived on the third floor.
The place is very easy to recognize. Go up the first staircase and when you reach the third floor, you will see two identical doors facing each other. The one facing east is your home.
Although Gu Qi had been married for several years, he had been living a monotonous bachelor's life. Even after moving to a suite, his room was still furnished with his old wooden bed, old bedding and a desk, nothing else.
There was a set of old wooden sofas and a coffee table in the living room, and a small coal stove for boiling water, a thermos and an enamel cup in the kitchen. The rest of the place was empty, with nothing in it.
Whether it's bedding or daily necessities, you can buy them on the street for free, and the quality is definitely not as good as what you buy in your own supermarket.
So, if you can bring it with you, take it with you and try to save as much as possible.
"Knock knock!" The old mother's voice came from outside the door.
Chen Xingling quickly got up and opened the door, and asked in surprise: "Mom, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"
Liu Peiyun did not answer, but took out a folded old handkerchief from her pocket. Her old hands slowly opened it, revealing a stack of "Great Unity" ten-yuan bills, which looked like there were at least a dozen or twenty of them.
"Ling, this money is what your father and I saved. Take it and don't tell anyone."
After a pause, she lowered her voice again: "Your brothers love you and won't bother with you, but your sisters-in-law may not be the same. Don't tell anyone, because too many people will gossip and it will embarrass us two old people."
Chen Xingling shook his head and folded the handkerchief back.
"Mom, I can't have it."
Liu Peiyun glanced at her and whispered, "You still have to go to school, and we just moved. We have a lot of things to buy, and everything costs money. Although Aqi earns a lot, he has several people in his hometown who rely on him for support, and the pressure is very high. Your father and I have enough to eat and drink at the moment, and we don't have to spend any money."
Chen Xingling still refused and laughed softly: "I have enough money with me, and Aqi has saved some money in the past few years, which is enough for us to buy things for our family."
"Here." Liu Peiyun stuffed it into her hand and whispered, "Studying is not something that can be done overnight. Your parents can help you as much as they can. Aqi is good at making money, but it's not good for everyone to rely on him. Don't let him work too hard."
Chen Xingling smiled and said mysteriously, "Mom, wait for me for a moment."
After saying that, she closed the door.
Liu Peiyun stood there in a daze, not knowing what her daughter was doing. Thinking that her daughter asked her to wait, she stood there waiting for a long time.
Finally, the door opened again.
Under the dim light, my daughter took out more than twenty light blue hundred-yuan bills. Each one was shiny and shiny, and it seemed that there was not even a crease on it.
Liu Peiyun was shocked and hesitated: "Um... where did you get so much money?"
Chen Xingling's eyes flickered, and he whispered, "Aqi and I have been saving money these years, a little bit every month, for more than four years. At the end of the year, he changed the money into large bills and let me keep it with me. This money is enough for me to study for many years, enough for me to buy a car, and enough for us to buy a house - enough money."
Liu Peiyun smiled happily when she heard this, and praised in amazement: "I didn't expect that Aqi could save so much money!"
Chen Xingling quickly put the money away and made a hushing gesture.
"I am saving this secretly. I can't let my husband's family know about this. Otherwise my mother-in-law will make a fuss if she finds out."
Liu Peiyun hurriedly told her daughter: "Put it away and don't take it out again."
Chen Xingling smiled secretly and quickly put it away.
In fact, these are not real money, but "teaching aids" for students.
A few days ago, she discovered that there were sets of "coin" teaching aids in the "student learning supplies" area in the supermarket. Many of them were old versions of banknotes, which were very beautifully made and lifelike. If the word "teaching aids" had not been printed in the corner, she would have almost believed them.
My mother is old and her eyesight is blurry. The light is dim at this time, so she definitely can't tell whether it is real or fake.
"Mom, are you relieved now? It's not easy for you and my dad to save some money, so just keep it. When I really need money one day, I will secretly ask you for it, okay?"
Liu Peiyun was finally relieved and nodded with satisfaction: "Go ahead, go ahead."
