When Li Manjun returned home, Zhao Yong had already taken the child home and then returned to the company.
Aunt Guo said: "Mr. Zhao has a social event in the evening and won't eat at home. Let us eat first without waiting for him."
Li Manjun nodded to show that she understood. She changed her shoes and put on comfortable slippers and walked into the living room. She didn't see her daughter. She put her bag on the sofa and walked to the balcony. Sure enough, the little girl was changing the water for her little rabbit.
Zhao Yong made a drinking trough out of mineral water bottles and fixed it to the cage with wires. It took some skill to remove it. Year after year, he struggled for a long time without taking off the trough. Instead, the diaper pad was covered with water stains.
Li Manjun was really convinced, and suddenly she regretted not buying a villa with a yard in Rongcheng. It was really bad to keep animals in a commercial building.
But seeing as both father and daughter were working hard to keep things clean, she might as well turn a blind eye.
"You have to break the hook on the wire first before you can take out the sink." Li Manjun squatted down behind her daughter and taught her how to take out the sink.
"The wire is rather sharp, so you have to keep your hands away from it, you know?"
Every year I look back with surprise, "Mom~"
Li Manjun nodded and told her to watch how he operated. Children who are almost five years old already know how to avoid danger, as long as they are taught well.
Every year, I agreed. I watched my mother do it first, and then started to do it myself. She was a little worried that the wire would catch her, so she was very careful with things.
Li Manjun didn't rush her, nor did she dislike her child's clumsy movements. He patiently encouraged her and let her take her time.
Finally, after spending more than ten minutes, Nian Nian successfully removed the sink by himself. He looked at his mother in surprise and asked for praise.
Li Manjun kissed her, patted her shoulder, and said, "Go to the bathroom, wash up, and fill it with clean water."
"Okay~" Nian Nian smiled happily and did as her mother said.
Although the water spilled on the floor, Li Manjun kindly directed her daughter to get a rag to wipe it off, and warned: "There are three gray handkerchiefs in the bathroom, which are used to wipe the floor. Next time water spills on the floor, just wipe it off."
Wipe it clean with a rag, you know?"
Every year, I stick my little butt out and mop the floor. While wiping, I say loudly: "I know!"
"It's great, I can do housework by myself every year." Li Manjun praised with a smile, and snickered with Aunt Guo.
Aunt Guo whispered to Li Manjun: "Since raising this rabbit, she has become more responsible every year. She takes care of the rabbit like a baby. She will take the initiative to do anything related to the rabbit."
For example, feeding food and water, cleaning the rabbit cage, bathing the bunny, and mopping the floor.
Li Manjun made a choice. Thinking about it this way, raising rabbits is not all bad.
Zhao Yong came back earlier than Li Manjun thought. She thought she would have to socialize until midnight again before going home, but today Zhao Yong came back at around nine o'clock in the evening. He really just had a meal with the leader outside.
There are no arrangements for entertainment activities after the meal, such as foot washing, singing and dancing.
Li Manjun was about to put her daughter to bed. As soon as the little girl agreed, the door opened. When she saw her father, Nian Nian immediately became energetic.
"dad!"
Nian Nian's sharp eyes spotted the gift bag in his father's hand, and he stood on tiptoe to see what it was.
Zhao Yong lifted the gift bag up and said, "This is a treasure, be good Nian Nian, don't break it."
"What kind of treasure is it?" Nian Nian asked curiously. His little hands resisted pulling at it, but his eyes still stared at it.
Li Manjun came up to him and asked warily: "What is it? What did you buy again?"
Zhao Yong now has a little money, and many friends who claim to be experts have appeared around him. Today they will sell him a pair of ancient paintings, and tomorrow they will sell him a set of antique vases or something. The cheap one is a few thousand, and the expensive one is tens of thousands.
[Currently used, it is the most comprehensive and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of sounds, and supports offline reading.
To the extent that everyone can see it, it couldn’t be more fake.
Zhao Yong was asked to take it and retreat, but he couldn't lose face, so he hesitated and walked over.
Later, Li Manjun came to the conclusion that the money in a man's hand should not exceed 10,000, otherwise, he could be cheated out of whatever amount he had.
Even someone like Zhao Yong, who considers himself prudent in business, will inevitably fall into traps sometimes.
I didn't fall for it before, just because the script the other party got was wrong.
Zhao Yong was uneducated, so he liked the things of educated people the most. He would believe him when he saw someone wearing glasses and a long coat and reciting a few lines of pretentious prose poems.
Zhao Yong saw the unhappy look in his wife's eyes and felt aggrieved. After drinking some wine, he was a little tipsy and thick-skinned. He rushed over and hugged Li Manjun, rubbed his head on her neck, and said while rubbing:
"You have wronged me again. I have long stopped believing those liars. This time it is a real treasure, a treasure specially given to you!"
Nian Nian stuck out his tongue, covered his eyes, and couldn't help but peek.
Li Manjun laughed uncontrollably and pushed him away, "Bring it here and see what kind of treasure it is."
"Dang Dang Dang~" He picked up the gift bag, added his own background music, and took out a box from the gift bag.
The box is opened, and inside is a red mobile phone that can be held in one hand. It is commonly known as the treasure in the palm of your hand. It is actually the first generation flip phone launched by Motorola.
Li Manjun said before that he would buy this clamshell phone when it came out, but he was so busy that he forgot about it.
"Did you buy it for me?" Li Manjun was really surprised this time.
Zhao Yong nodded and took out the black mobile phone from the inner pocket of his coat. "I also bought one. Mine is black. You women probably prefer something more beautiful, so I bought red."
After holding a mobile phone for several years, Li Manjun suddenly got a lightweight flip phone. Li Manjun felt that it was so light that he could not hold it firmly.
"Are the phone cards still the same?" Li Manjun asked.
Zhao Yong said he didn't know, but he bought the matching phone card and asked Li Manjun to insert the card and try it out.
The red flip phone, based on its appearance, is very close to the PHS phone from two thousand years ago. However, in fact, this Motorola phone does not have many functions, only automatic redialing and vibration reminder for incoming calls.
However, it is still much lighter than its bulky big brother.
Li Manjun inserted the card and fiddled with it twice before putting it down because there were not many functions for her to fiddle with.
"How much is it?" Li Manjun asked curiously.
Zhao Yong replied: "It's more than three thousand, which is much cheaper than the big brother we bought before."
Li Manjun said with a smile: "The current Big Brother is only two thousand seventy-eight."
But it seems that Big Brother will drop to around 2,000 next year.
After all, the new clamshell phone is coming out, and Big Brother is about to become the tears of the times.
Every year I watch my parents tinkering with their mobile phones. I ignore myself for a long time and rush into my mother's arms to seek a sense of presence. "Show me, let me see, mom."
"Okay, let's take a look." Li Manjun handed the new mobile phone to her daughter. It had no functions and she was not afraid of her child randomly pressing it.
