Since they had agreed with their family to move out, Gu Xiang and his wife took leave that afternoon to pack their belongings at home.
The next day happened to be the weekend, and people who didn't have to go to work happened to be at home helping to move things.
Neither Gu Jiu nor Lin Shu went out. Lin Shu, Liu Xiaoe and the nanny were looking after the children together, and Gu Jiu went to help.
Dafang was the first to start a family, and he had a lot of things and a lot of things. The four-season clothes for the whole family alone were packed in seven or eight big bags, plus bed sheets and quilts, and three tricycles. It took two trips to finish.
Finally shipped the furniture for their big house.
"Sister-in-law, you want to move this chest of drawers too? Isn't this house empty after you move out?"
Jiang Chaohong saw his sister-in-law He Chunru asking someone to carry out a chest of drawers that was half a person tall. I quickly wanted to step forward to stop him.
He Chunru stepped forward and pulled Jiang Chaohong aside, "They are moving things, don't block the way."
Jiang Chaohong was really anxious when he saw that the cabinet was almost carried to the stairs. , "Sister-in-law, this chest of drawers Is it the matching furniture of this house? "
If the cabinet is not moved, she can move it into the bedroom of their third room when the big house leaves. She just needs one to store her clothes and clothes. Cabinets for storing miscellaneous items.
The sisters-in-law have been together for several years, but He Chun didn't know her temper. He smiled lightly and said: "Third brother and sister, you married into this family late, you may not know it. When your eldest brother and I got married, the furniture was custom-made by my mother's family. In order to match the house, the paint and the doors and windows of the house were painted in a different color. "
"Is there such a thing?" Jiang Chaohong looked at the other furniture in the bedroom suspiciously.
Not to mention, they are all the same color series.
“What else?” He Chunru rolled her eyes at her, a shallow-eyed bitch!
Jiang Chaohong smiled, and after a while, when He Chunru wasn't paying attention, she ran downstairs to find Wang Suzhen.
Wang Suzhen was kneading noodles in the kitchen and preparing to make dumplings for lunch. She heard footsteps at the door of the kitchen and looked back and saw that it was Jiang Chaohong.
"From the third family, don't wander around if you have nothing to do. Come over and help make dumplings."
Jiang Chaohong found a small bench and sat down, watching her pour water and make noodles, "Mom, I just saw When the eldest brother and the others move the furniture, the eldest brother and sister-in-law will come back after the furniture is moved. Have lunch?”
“They just moved there and the fire hasn’t started there yet. If they don’t come back to eat, where can they go?” Light your face and hands, cover the pot with gauze, and then prepare the filling.
Jiang Chaohong smiled and nodded: "That's right. I saw that the furniture when my eldest brother got married had the same color as the doors and windows. I praised their design at the beginning."
Wang Suzhen didn't say much after listening to her words. I thought, "Back then, my in-laws ordered furniture after they came to see the house. It was just for their room." The furniture matches the whole house and is painted with the same paint.
Not to mention that the furniture really blends in together and looks very coordinated.”
Listen. Jiang Chaohong curled her lips at her mother-in-law's words, and finally believed her sister-in-law's statement that the furniture was her wedding dowry.
"Mom, how big is the dormitory assigned to Brother's unit? I checked this year and they have a lot of furniture in their room. Can the dormitory accommodate it?"
Wang Suzhen glanced at her while cutting pickled vegetables and said, "You don't have to worry about them. As the boss, the house allocated is a house with three bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. This kind of furniture may be placed at home. It’s a bit too little. A few days ago, your sister-in-law said she wanted to go to the flea market to see if there were any better old furniture.”
“The flea market?”< br>
Jiang Chaohong said in disbelief: "What is the eldest brother worth? If they want furniture, they can just use the furniture tickets to buy new ones. Why do they go to the flea market to look for secondhand goods? He is a leader. , It would be so shameless to let your subordinates know that you are hunting for secondhand goods!"
Wang Suzhen put down the kitchen knife and looked at Jiang Chaohong speechlessly.
Jiang Chaohong looked puzzled and touched his face: "Mom, why are you staring at me like this? Is there something dirty on my face?"
"What happened to the used goods? There are some used goods in the flea market. Both the materials and the workmanship are incomparable to the furniture of this era. They are exquisitely crafted and strong and difficult to use. Just buy them from the flea market and use them for decades. It’s not a problem.”
Wang Suzhen mixed the meat filling and added some sourness. Caizheng threw a rolling pin to her, "Your eldest brother is moving. If you don't help, forget it. Please don't be short-sighted. They will move away their things. It's the furniture in this villa. They won't do the same." I can move.”
The Gu family can live in the compound, at least they understand the rules.
Moving the original furniture in the villa?
Joke!
They, the people who take care of their families, are still embarrassed.
When Lin Shu went into the kitchen to wash the milk bottles, she saw Jiang Chaohong rolling out the dough and Wang Suzhen making dumplings.
"Mom, do you want to eat dumplings for lunch?"
Wang Suzhen smiled and nodded: "Well, thinking that everyone will be at home on the weekend, I thought of making dumplings to eat, and asked Xiao Chen to make them at noon. Chicken, stir-fry some pickles and green vegetables, and it’s ready for lunch.”
Lin Shu said while washing the bottle, “Then you wrap it up slowly, and I’ll come to help after washing the bottle.”< br>
"You are not needed. You can just take care of the first and second babies in peace."
The two nannies in the family, the first nanny in the Gu family, still stay in the old house to take care of Wang Suzhen and Gu Changsheng.
The nanny Lin Shu hired later would be taken to the new home to help with housework and take care of the children.
Lin Shu smiled, put the cleaned bottles into a small stainless steel pot and boiled water to sterilize them, then wiped his hands and sat down to help.
I used to work in restaurants and hotels in Guangdong Province.
There are many teahouses in Guangdong Province, among which they have to make everything from shrimp dumplings to soup dumplings themselves.
The dumplings made by Lin Shu are small and beautiful, and can be made into different shapes.
“Oh, why didn’t I notice that you make dumplings quickly and beautifully before?”
Wang Suzhen looked at the dumplings made by Lin Shu, they were like works of art, and then looked at the dumplings made by herself , too ugly to be seen.
“Brother and sister, with your skills, you can even make a living by opening a shop selling dumplings. It’s really enviable.”
Jiang Chaohong was jealous. This younger brother and sister from the countryside, although they were usually cold and cold, and didn't seem to care much about anything, were clever and capable, could do everything well, and were praised by their elders.
You can make money by just opening a shop, but she can only work honestly and receive a salary of dozens of dollars every month.
For example, today she wore another set of home clothes, "Sister-in-law, the color of the home clothes you are wearing is different from the one you wore last time. This is a new one you bought. ?”
“Yes, I have two children at home, and one set is not enough, so I bought another set.” Lin Shu looked down at the three-layer thickened pajamas he was wearing.
This kind of pajamas is everywhere in the streets in later generations. Although it looks bloated when worn on the body, it is really warm when worn on a cold day.
Even down jackets and cotton-padded clothes are defeated.
The most important thing is that it is easy to clean. No matter how you wash it or how many times you wash it, you are not afraid of damage.
Jiang Chaohong turned his head and looked at Wang Suzhen's home clothes, feeling jealous, and his words were a little sour.
"You are still extravagant, brother and sister. One set is enough to last you through the winter. Why don't you buy another set to change?"
Who in the ordinary family doesn't wear a cotton coat for a whole winter and wear it for a whole winter? How many families can afford two sets of cotton-padded clothes per person?
And this particular sister-in-law actually bought two sets of home clothes to change.
He is not from a high family background but has many famous names.
Lin Shu just smiled and said nothing. Wang Suzhen saw that the rolled-out dumpling wrappers had been wrapped, but Jiang Chaohong was still rolling out a piece slowly for a long time.
She said angrily: "Don't slow down when you speak, and roll your hands quickly. Also, since you envy Shu Shu for having two sets of pajamas, If you want it, just give Shu Shu money to buy a set for you.”
One word pierced Jiang Chaohong's thoughts.
Jiang Chaohong was secretly annoyed.
She is a typical person who wants to save face and suffer.
In fact, during the particularly cold days at the end of last year, she wanted a set of home clothes like this.
“Is this dress expensive? If it’s too expensive, I can’t afford it.”
Lin Shu took the rolling pin from her hand and rolled out the dough quickly, "It all depends on what you think. It costs ten yuan for a set. In my opinion, it's well worth the money."
"Ten A set of yuan? "
Jiang Chaohong looked at Lin Shu in shock. She knew that the fabric was very thick.
I heard Wang Suzhen say more than once that wearing these clothes is much warmer than wearing cotton clothes.
If it really costs ten yuan a set, it’s really not expensive.
"Brother and sister, these clothes cost ten yuan a set. Why haven't I heard you talk about it earlier? If I had known that it cost ten yuan a set, I would have bought a few sets for my family to spend the winter at the end of last year."
Lin Shu looked at her with a half-smile, "You didn't even ask!"
Jiang Chaohong: "." He was so choked that he couldn't say a word.
However, Jiang Chaohong is short-sighted and likes to care about everything, but she is really good to her family.
Learning that Lin Shu’s home clothes only cost ten yuan a set, she gritted her teeth and bought one set for men and two sets for children, but the only one missing was hers.
Wang Suzhen couldn't bear to see her being so fussy, "I bought three sets, but I'm still missing my own set? Let me tell you, women who do housework at home should have a set of home clothes like this. Even if this dress is dirty, it is still very good. Wash it, just wash it and it will be clean. It is easier to wash than cotton clothes, and you are not afraid of cotton getting lumpy.”
“Mom, it’s winter. It’s all over, it’s already the beginning of spring, and the weather will be warm in half a month. Even if I want to buy it, I’ll have to wait until this winter.”
My daughter-in-law only cares about her son. and grandson, which is why Wang Suzhen is very tolerant of her daughter-in-law, who has such shallow eyelids and is so unpleasant.
Flaws do not hide the flaws.
No one is perfect.
By the time the people in the kitchen finished wrapping the dumplings, the men were already riding tricycles to deliver the furniture.
In the bedroom of the large room on the second floor, He Chunru was sweeping the floor, preparing to sweep out the cleared garbage.
"Sister-in-law, have you finished moving everything?"
He Chunru wiped the sweat from his forehead, stopped what he was doing, stood up and found Lin Shu, and smiled: "Yes, the furniture Their men sent it over and waited until it was finished here. Hygiene, after lunch we will go over to clean up the dormitory.”
“We will move to the unit. If we want to get together with our sisters in the future, we will probably only have time during the New Year and holidays or when something happens. .”
Lin Shu stepped forward to help bring the gray bucket to her, "We can get together at any time if we want. If sister-in-law misses me, you can go to my restaurant to find me on the weekend and I will treat you to dinner."
"Haha." He Chunru felt relieved physically and mentally after hearing this, "Just what you said, I have to go to your restaurant to have a meal on the weekend."
This younger brother and sister is not So generous to everyone.
"Okay, I'll be waiting at any time."
The two were talking when Erbao's loud crying came from the bedroom inside.
He Chunru smiled and said: "The second baby must be hungry. I will finish the work here soon. You go and see the baby quickly. He should be drinking milk."
Lin Shu smiled helplessly: "It should be the second baby She was so hungry that she slowed down her milk-making process. She cried as loudly as she could.”
He Chunru couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and waved her hand away, asking her to go see the child quickly.
When Gu Jiu came back on his bike, he saw Erbao's big watery eyes as soon as he entered the door.
The look of grievance on Gu Jiu's face shocked Gu Jiu, "What's wrong with Erbao? You didn't drink milk in time again, are you so hungry?"
"It's not that you're hungry and anxious, so soak it in milk You can't do it any slower. When you want to drink, you have to drink it right away, or I'll cry to you. "Lin Shu really didn't know who this child was following.
Gu Jiu hugged Erbao distressedly and coaxed him again and again before the girl broke into laughter.
Liu Xiao'e shook her sore arm and said with a smile: "This girl is still wronged. Your grandma, I have hugged you for so long and I still don't see you. I am heartbroken and heartbroken."
Gu Jiu kissed her. The daughter inside said, "Mom, I'll hold the baby, and you can go and rest. The baby is getting bigger and bigger, and it's difficult to hold him up."
Liu Xiao'e turned around and teased Dabao again, then waved her arms and walked out the door.
"How is the environment in the dormitory over there, brother?"
Gu Jiu took a toy to Dabao, then gave another to Erbao, and said: "The environment must be different. Comparison here in the compound, but the families are separated. It’s true that the family can live peacefully.”
“Can it really be peaceful? Are his neighbors easy to get along with?”
Lin Shu has lived for decades, so he naturally knows how comfortable he is. , the character of your neighbors is very important.
If you meet some carefree and top-notch neighbors, even if you live your life behind closed doors, it will be enough for you to drink.
If you don’t look for trouble, trouble will find you automatically.
"I didn't pay attention to this. Even if I'm not easy to get along with, I'm a grown man and my neighbors won't show off in front of me."
Gu Jiu thought for a while and said: " Besides, with my eldest brother’s position, no one should Go find trouble with my sister-in-law if you don't have the vision."
Lin Shu smiled and turned the topic to moving, "Our house is finished, what do you think about it? What’s missing about the house? ”
"What's missing? Haven't you done everything?" Gu Jiu asked.
Hydroelectric power station.
It has been half a month since the new year came to work, and Fang Hong noticed that Lin Gang had not come to work yet.
She secretly went to the office to inquire, and the news she learned was that he had taken a leave of absence and would not come to work for the time being.
As for when he will come to work, Lin Gang did not say the specific time.
She wanted to find out more about Lin Gang, but she was afraid that Hua Zi would notice and kick her.
So, as time slowly passed, Fang Hong felt increasingly unsure.
Afraid that Lin Gang would not be willing to come to her trouble, but also afraid that Lin Gang would be reluctant to let her go and continue to pester her. (End of this chapter)
