Chapter 21 Our family does not lack your little salary
Chapter 21 Our family does not need your salary
Qiao Xinwei got off work on time today. In the crowded elevator and noisy lobby, she found that her colleagues in other departments also got off work on time. Only the planning department had to work overtime for about an hour every day, and all of them were spontaneous.
In the past, she would have fought with her colleagues without any complaints, but now, she is thinking about Zai Xi all the time, and when the time comes to get off work, she wants to go home.
This is probably the biggest difference between becoming a mother and before.
Jiang Hao's car was parked in a very conspicuous place. He still drove the original car, a black business car, which was steady and low-key. But now because of Zai Xi's insistence, he put a very cute car sticker on the car door, which was so steady.
There is a strong childlike innocence underneath.
"Mom." Zai Xi, who was sitting in the safety seat, shouted excitedly as soon as he saw his mother, "Mom, mom, today Teacher Huang taught us to recite Tang poetry, and I recited it the fastest." His newly learned things are always
I want to show off in front of my mother.
Qiao Xinwei sat down in the back seat and said, "Then you can carry it to your mother and listen to it."
"The sun sets over the mountains and the Yellow River flows into the sea. If you want to see a thousand miles, go to a higher level and carry it on your back."
Qiao Xinwei held Zai Xi's little face, leaned over and kissed her, "Baby, it's great."
Jiang Hao drove slowly. It was the rush hour after get off work and it was a busy time. He drove forward and saw a white Mercedes-Benz driving alongside him in the next lane. He turned his head and glanced, only to see the inside of the cab. Zhu Zirui was waving hello to him. He glanced back and rolled up the window, "The air quality is really bad today. Oh, what should I do about this environment?!" He was filled with worry. say.
Qiao Xinwei looked out the car window. There was huge traffic on the road, and every car was emitting exhaust fumes. She touched Zai Xi's forehead and felt anxious, "Yes, I will have to wear a mask when going out in the future.
My throat is a bit uncomfortable. Even adults can't stand the weather, let alone children."
Jiang Hao said considerately: "You must be angry. I will cook you some rock sugar chrysanthemums when I go home."
"Okay, Xi Bao, drink some too."
"By the way, why does your company work overtime every day? Are you very busy at the end of the year?"
Speaking of this, Qiao Xinwei frowned again, "No, all the work can be done during working hours. There is no overtime notice, but everyone consciously works overtime. I got off work on time today, and everyone was surprised.
Look at me as if I've done something terrible."
The traffic was heavy, and as the cars drove away, Jiang Hao felt a little irritated, "If you're not happy with what you're doing, don't do it. Our family doesn't need your salary."
"I'm not unhappy. Going to work is not only for salary, but also for self-fulfillment. Women still need to have a career, Xi Bao, are you right? Do you like Mom's outfit?"
Zai Xi nodded, gave a thumbs up and said, "Mom looks great in a little suit."
"Haha, you are so good, baby. Mommy loves you so much."
Jiang Hao originally had a bit of a temper, but after hearing such a loving conversation between mother and son, he surrendered instantly. Facing his son and his wife, he just couldn't get angry.
The sky was getting dark, and the car drove for more than half an hour before arriving at the Jiang family mansion. On this cold day, Lin Caiyin stood at the door wearing a luxurious fur coat and looked around. Her precious grandson was coming, and she missed him so much.
"Mom, why are you standing outside?"
"I'm anxious. I, Hao, asked you an hour ago. You said you were going out. How did you get here?!"
"Traffic jam."
The car slowly drove into the courtyard. As soon as the door opened, Zai Xi's clear voice shouted, "Grandma, Grandma, I'm here."
"Hey, Xi Bao, my grandparents have missed you so much and have been looking forward to your coming all day long." Lin Caiyin took off her coat and wrapped it around Xi without thinking, "Xi Bao, grandma will carry you in. It's so windy outside.
It's too big to freeze my sweet grandson."
Qiao Xinwei and Jiang Hao looked at each other and said in a low voice: "Your mother worked really hard for Xi Bao." She tightened her clothes and said, "The current temperature is minus 7 degrees."
Jiang Hao smiled, "That's her grandson."
When we arrived at the house, ample heating made every corner of the house as warm as spring. There was another car in the living room, a charging one, a four-wheeled one, and a double-door car. Qiao Xinwei was dumbfounded.
I was dazzled.
As soon as he took off his thick coat, Zai Xi ran towards the world of cars like a little lunatic, "Wow, wow, wow, it's so beautiful." Three wows in a row were not enough to express his love for cars.
Jiang Zhizhong was sitting on the sofa. When Xi came, he became energetic and said, "Xi Bao, can you teach me how to drive?"
"Okay, okay." Zai Xi couldn't be happier.
So, the old man and the young boy started playing there. Watching Xi Bao start the car, Jiang Zhizhong said confidently: "Turn the steering wheel to the left, yes, yes... if it goes too far, go to the right, don't hit the wall... slow down
Slow down a little, okay, you can step on the accelerator on the straight road...Oh, our Xi Bao is really a little genius, he can drive it right away."
Zai Xike was so upset that he couldn't help shouting to his mother, "Mom, mom, if you don't want to drive your car, drive it for me. I will drive you to work tomorrow."
Qiao Xin was confused and told him a fact cruelly, "You can't drive an adult's car, you can only drive a child's car."
Zai Xi said something surprising again, "Then I will drive you to work in a small car. You come up and sit with me."
"Baby, the seat is too small, mom can't sit down."
"Oh, okay, then you chase me from behind."
"..."
Jiang Hao couldn't help but burst into laughter behind him. Qiao Xinwei turned around and glared. He ran over and chased after Zai Xi. While chasing, he said, "Hey, this is great. Running is a great way to keep fit."
After driving for a while, Zai Xi got the hang of it. Fortunately, this toy car didn't drive very fast, otherwise he wouldn't be able to destroy the entire living room.
There was a delicious smell wafting from the kitchen, and the nanny had prepared delicious food. Zai Xi just got a new toy, and he was so interested in it that he sat in the car and refused to get off.
Qiao Xinwei's face was serious and she said seriously: "Xi Bao, it's time to eat. If you want to play, you can play. You can play after eating."
Zai Xi held the steering wheel tightly with both hands and looked at the car reluctantly. He began to bargain, "Mom, can I play for a little longer? Ten minutes, just ten minutes."
"No, we will eat soon."
Lin Caiyin on the side saw this and said, "It's okay, Xi Bao, just sit in the car and play, and grandma will feed you."
Qiao Xinwei decisively refused, "No, Mom, this is a bad habit. You must eat on the table."
"Xi Bao is still young and it's his nature to love to play. I've already fed him. I won't bother you. Just sit and eat and don't worry about it."
"..." Qiao Xinwei didn't want to argue with her mother-in-law, but she didn't want her son to develop bad habits, so she could only wink at Jiang Hao. At this time, she could only push Jiang Hao out.
Jiang Hao smiled, knelt down and looked at his son, and said calmly: "Xi Bao, if you let grandma feed you while playing, wouldn't grandma be hungry? Besides, mom and dad have never been
I have never taught you to play and eat at the same time, and Teacher Huang in the kindergarten certainly did not teach you this way."
Zai Xi nodded, "It seems... yes."
Jiang Hao added: "You have to concentrate on eating, and you also have to concentrate on driving. Dad doesn't eat when he is driving. Xi Bao eats first, and then plays after eating. Look over there, there are shrimps, fish and meat, they are delicious.
.”
Zai Xi's attention was successfully transferred to the dining table. The aroma was really delicious and he felt very hungry.
So, Jiang Hao naturally picked up Zai Xi and said, "Let's go eat."
Qiao Xinwei followed closely, and Lin Caiyin felt depressed. She wanted to be close to her grandson so much, but she refused to feed her. She was so stingy. She rolled her eyes at Qiao Xinwei's back.
During the meal, Zai Xi started to show off again, "Grandpa and grandma, Teacher Huang taught us to recite Tang poetry today. I recited it the fastest. I'll recite it for you." He was so proud that he kept showing off, "In the daytime,
At the end of the mountain, the Yellow River flows into the sea. I want to see a thousand miles away and reach a higher level."
Everyone applauded and praised one after another. Zai Xi was even more proud and couldn't help but show off, "I will also carry another grass. The grass on Li Li's original land grows wither every year. The wild fire cannot burn it all. The wild fire cannot burn it all."
The wildfire will never burn it all..."
Qiao Xinwei wiped the sweat with her forehead, oh, why don't you just stop when you're done?! She reminded, "Spring breeze."
"Ah, it's the spring breeze that brings life again." The little eyes were so bright.
Everyone laughed, and the whole room was filled with laughter. This is a scene that would never happen when there are only two old people at home.
——
For several days in a row, Qiao Xinwei got off work on time. She didn't think anything was wrong. She finished what Li Qianwei told her and she got off work on time. Li Qianwei didn't say anything.
However, this made Hong Shi, who was in the same group, very dissatisfied.
That day, it was time to get off work again. Qiao Xinwei picked up her bag and was about to leave. Hong Shi suddenly blocked her way and said, "Qiao Xinwei, everyone is working overtime, why do you have the nerve to get off work early?"
Qiao Xinwei just told the truth, "I have finished today's task, so there is nothing else to do if I leave it."
"I have a job here, Zheng Tao also has a job, Shen Yanqing also has a job, why don't you ask us?"
Qiao Xinwei clearly felt that Hong Shi's firepower was strong, so she had to take a step back and asked instead: "Zheng Tao, Shen Yanqing, is there anything you need me to do?"
"No."
"No." They both replied in unison.
Hong Shi became even more angry and raised her voice: "Qiao Xinwei, we are in the same group. Shouldn't we work together to advance and retreat together? Bonuses at the end of the month are based on performance. You will drag down our entire group. You don't want to
We want the bonus."
Qiao Xinwei took a deep breath. It seemed that she had to fight today. She was not the rookie who had just entered the workplace six years ago. She puffed up her chest and said what she had been hiding in her heart.
