Seeing that the one-month resettlement period was coming, Qiao Xinwei was not in a hurry to find a house. Only a few residents in the community had moved, and the bustling community in the past suddenly became deserted.
Jiang Hao didn't know what she was thinking, and he didn't dare to pry. Every time he wanted to have a good chat, she was unwilling. He said everything that should be said and could be done, so just watch
Let him show off, time will tell.
The winter in Linzhou is no warmer than in the capital city, but there is no heating here, and the room is even colder than outside.
Zai Xi took the bowls and chopsticks and accidentally dropped them all on the ground. He said angrily: "Oh, my hands were so stiff that I dropped them. Mom, I didn't mean to do it."
"It doesn't matter. Don't step on the debris. Mom can just sweep it up." As she said that, Qiao Xinwei went to get a broom to sweep the floor.
Jiang Hao knelt down and touched the child's little hand. The child's hand was indeed cold, and he looked like he was wearing a lot of clothes. "Is it cold on you?"
"My body is not cold, my hands are cold."
Jiang Hao took his hand, rubbed it and breathed, "Uncle, let me fill a hot water bottle for you. You hold the hot water bottle and sit on the sofa to watch TV. I will call you after dinner later, okay?"
"Yeah, okay."
The broken bowls fell to the ground. Jiang Hao picked up Zai Xi and put him on the sofa. Then he filled a hot water bottle for him to hold.
Qiao Xinwei had also finished sweeping at this time. To be honest, she was a little afraid of the winter in Linzhou. The houses in the old community had big gaps, and cold wind flowed straight into the house. When it rained or snowed, water would leak from the corners.
The mother and daughter basically spent the first winter in bed; in the second winter, when Xi Zheng was crawling all over the floor, the ground was cold and cold, so she had to let her child crawl in the bedroom, not daring to go out.
, too cold.
All in all, Zai Xi's birthday falls within these few days. In the early winter of that year, when the weather had just cooled down, she gritted her teeth and gave birth to her child.
Someone knocked on the door outside, "Xi Bao, don't move. Mom, go and open the door." Qiao Xinwei ran to open the door, "Aunt Qin."
"Hello grandma."
"Hey, Xi Bao is so good. Have you eaten yet?"
"Not yet, uncle is doing it."
Aunt Qin looked at the kitchen, isn't it? It's been almost a month. This Jiang Hao buys food, cooks and plays with his children every day. She couldn't help but praise him. How can he be so diligent and pragmatic now?
A young man.
"Xinwei, I'm moving to a new home tomorrow, so I won't be here anymore." As she said that, she took a transparent bag from her pocket. It could be seen that there was money in it. "This money is to be refunded to you."
I’ll refund you one more month’s rent and deposit, totaling two thousand sixty-six, so you can split the money.”
"Aunt Qin, there is no need to refund me more, this is what I should pay."
"Take it, you signed it for one year, but it's my fault that you guys have to move before the first year is up. It's Xi Bao's birthday, just think it's what I gave to Xi Bao."
Qiao Xinwei took the bag and said, "Thank you, Aunt Qin. Thanks to your constant care in the past few years, I really thank you. You can enjoy the happiness next to your son from now on."
"Haha, okay, where are you planning to move to?"
Qiao Xinwei looked back and saw Jiang Hao cutting vegetables with his head down, so she said softly: "I think about it, I'd better take Xi Bao back to the capital. After all, my parents, brother and sister-in-law are all in the capital, and??
He is also from the capital."
Aunt Qin nodded, "Well, you are right to think so. Don't make things difficult for yourself, don't make yourself miserable, let alone your children. You are young and have no feelings now. When Xi Bao grows up, you will be old."
Now, you will know how happy it is to have a companion by your side. Young couples always come to accompany you."
Qiao Xinwei smiled lightly and said, "I didn't think that far ahead. I just thought that I should go home after being away for so long. As for talking to him, let's talk about it, I don't know for sure."
At this time, Jiang Hao stuck his head out and greeted warmly, "Aunt Qin, have you eaten? If not, let's eat together."
"I've eaten, thank you." Aunt Qin patted her hand and advised, "What a good young man. Just look at how attentive he is to your mother and son now. You can forgive him now. Who hasn't?"
It’s a mistake, can’t you just correct it?”
"Aunt Qin, things are not what you think."
"What else can I do? I don't know about the little conflicts between young couples. Even though Jiang Hao is a talented person, even my crooked son is worried about him."
Qiao Xinwei covered her mouth and smiled, "Brother, you are not crooked. I think it's good."
"Haha, I'm just making a metaphor. Jiang Hao is pretty good, don't miss it."
"Let's talk about it again." She still couldn't respond, and she couldn't get over the threshold in her heart.
After Aunt Qin finished explaining, she went back to the opposite door. The old building she has lived in all her life will be moved out tomorrow. She will probably have insomnia tonight.
Qiao Xinwei walked into the kitchen to help cook together. Jiang Hao was almost ready. He had to admit that since he came, the quality of their food has skyrocketed.
"Is this the way this eel is? Can it be steamed in a rice cooker?"
"Okay, put it on, it's time to cook."
Qiao Xinwei carefully placed the plate of eel on the steam rack of the rice cooker, "That's it?"
Jiang Hao smiled, grabbed a handful of dried prunes and spread them on the eel, put oil, salt, cooking wine, sugar, and ginger slices all in, "Okay, cover it and start steaming it until it's cooked."
"Then I'm just waiting to eat?"
Jiang Hao looked at her hands that were red from the cold, and scolded her with pity, "I asked you not to wash the vegetables, but you insist on washing them. Look at how cold the hands are. Here, there is a hot water bottle. I can carry it with my son. I'll give it to you here.
I."
"??" To be honest, Qiao Xinwei was moved at that moment, "We only have a hot water bottle at home, and you bought it again?"
"Well, you two won't have to fight each other. Go out and I'll make a pork rib stew and eat it hot."
Qiao Xinwei was kicked out of the kitchen. She held the hot water bottle and warmed it from her fingers to her heart.
"Oh, by the way," Jiang Hao suddenly poked his head out and asked, "Just now, Aunt Qin said Xi Bao's birthday. When is Xi Bao's birthday?"
"tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" Jiang Hao roughly counted the days and couldn't help but smile, "Yes, it's tomorrow, Xi Bao, do you want to go to Disneyland for your birthday tomorrow?"
Zai Xi was watching TV. When he heard this, he jumped up and down with joy, "Think, think, think, mom, is that okay?"
Qiao Xinwei really couldn't bear to let her child down, so she had to say: "Okay, but you have to get up early tomorrow. Disneyland is far away."
"ok, no problem."
Jiang Hao looked at them and laughed, and Qiao Xinwei reacted belatedly. Alas, she couldn't hide it from Jiang Hao. Her IQ was much lower than others.
Early the next morning, while they were waiting for the car, a luxury car suddenly stopped in front of them. The driver got out of the car and handed the keys to Jiang Hao directly, and then left.
Qiao Xinwei looked at the driver who was walking away, then at Jiang Hao, and said jokingly, "Boss Jiang, you are so rich, did you come to Linzhou to buy a new car?"
Jiang Hao shook the keys and said, "It's a rental. Get in the car."
The most excited one is Zai Xi. The boy has a natural love for cars, but conditions are limited. Zai Xi rarely gets to sit in a car. Today he was so happy that he jumped up and down in the car without wanting to rest for a moment.
.
"Xi Bao, if you don't take the time to take a rest now, you won't be able to play anymore. Come here and go to sleep."
"Mom, I can't sleep."
Jiang Hao was driving in front. He said patiently: "Xi Bao, it takes two hours to drive from here to Disneyland. If you want to go out of the province, you will slowly fall asleep while sitting and leaning against your mother. Let's go first in a while.
Disney, Disney has a very exciting show tonight, we will stay there tonight, there will be a parade tomorrow morning, and we will go to the beach the day after tomorrow, has Xi Bao ever seen the sea?"
"Wow, that's great. You can play and watch the sea. It's great." Zai Xi immediately sat down obediently.
Qiao Xinwei felt unsure after hearing this, and asked: "Hey, Jiang Hao, what the hell are you doing? Didn't you say you were going to come back the same day? Why did you arrange so many things?"
"There isn't enough time in one day. Why don't we go and have a good time anyway?"
"But I didn't bring anything with me."
"You don't need to bring anything. Everything is available everywhere. You can buy it if you don't have it. Besides, are you willing to let Xi Bao down?"
The car had already driven onto the ring road, and Qiao Xinwei knew that it was too late to go back. Looking at Zai Xi's infinitely longing eyes, she had no choice but to admit it.
"Mom, are you unhappy?"
She shook her head, "Mom is not unhappy, she is just worried that Xi Bao will be exhausted."
"Mom, I am a man and I have the best health. Mom, I will be happy if you are happy. I will listen to you and I will go to sleep now." The little guy sat on the seat and said, "I will close my eyes.
Falling asleep."
"Haha, mom is happy, you can go to sleep." Her son has such a small mouth, how can he talk so well? He is almost like someone else. She has no way to do it.
Jiang Hao said: "Let me make the decision for once. I haven't spent my child's birthday with him yet, and I haven't spent time with you properly before. This time, let me arrange it. Just have fun, okay?"
Qiao Xinwei said angrily: "You have planned it all and deliberately dug a trap for me to step on. It's too late for me to tell you."
"Why is this a trap? Why don't I let you play with me?"
"Stop talking. The child is going to sleep. Just concentrate on driving."
Jiang Hao smiled naively, "Haha, okay, you should also take a rest."
Two hours later, the car arrived at Disneyland smoothly. This is the newly built Disneyland theme park in Hangzhou and can be said to be the largest Disney cartoon theme park in Asia. The park opened to great excitement during the National Day and the popularity has not diminished.
When Zai Xi got off the bus and saw the colorful and wonderful cartoon world, he was so happy that he felt like he was on fire. He was going here and there, and he couldn't stop for a moment.
The same goes for Qiao Xinwei. After staying in a small city for a long time, she felt comfortable and depressed at the same time. Once she arrived here, maybe she was infected by the environment, and she completely let go and played like a child.
Jiang Hao looked at his innocent and lively son and his childlike lover, not to mention how satisfied he was. Look, they should be so happy.
