Jiang Yang said that Hou Bing saw her at some imperial seal platform.
Li Qingning asked Jiang Yang to pay the bill, "Let's go and take a look."
While in the car, Li Qingning said to Jiang Yang: "I usually ask you to call home more often, but you don't. Now you don't even know where your own mother is."
Jiang Yang leaned on the back of the chair and covered his head.
"I'm talking to you, don't pretend to have a headache." Li Qingning was very familiar with his tactics.
Jiang Yang was seen through and put down his hand: "Okay."
He soon received another call from Hou Bing, "I've made it clear to the security guard that your mother works as a cleaner at Yuxi Tower Phase 2. I won't wait here. I still have a job."
Jiang Yang was puzzled, "It's already dark, what kind of work do you have? Hey, your job is not in the west, so why are you going to the east?"
"In the field, that's all. I'll go back early after I finish my work."
Hou Bing hung up the phone.
It was still raining lightly in the sky.
In the past, Jiang Yang also met Yu in a car. At that time, he felt that this city was strange, cold, and had nothing to do with him. But now, perhaps because he has a family, he actually feels that this city has become more friendly.
He couldn't help but touch Li Qingning's hand.
Li Qingning said coquettishly, "I'm driving!"
Yuxitai is not far from the company. They arrived soon. Jiang Yang got off the car and called his mother. The phone couldn't be reached. He wanted to go in. The security guard of the community said that this is a high-end community and he would not let in without a card. Jiang Yang
I can only continue to call my mother.
Still can't get through.
Li Qingning came over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"My mom doesn't answer the phone."
Jiang Yang put down his cell phone, told the security guard his fucking name, and asked if he knew it. "Aunt Ma, oh, I know, you are Aunt Ma's son?" The security guard knew who it was as soon as he heard his fucking name.
He called another brother to come over and take over. He swiped his card and asked Jiang Yang and the others to go in and lead the way. "We are still fellow villagers. Aunt Ma and the others live in the basement. The mobile phone signal is not very good. It is normal to not receive calls sometimes."
He led Jiang Yang and the others to a building, swiped their card to open a side door, and faced an elevator. This elevator went to the underground parking lot. The security guard did not have permission to sit in it. They went around to a stairwell and walked to the basement.
Jiang Yang held Li Qingning's hand. He originally thought he would reach the next floor, but he went down two more floors and reached the third underground floor. The air was obviously damp and stuffy. Jiang Yang asked, "Does the cleaning lady live here?"
"right."
The security guard led Jiang Yang and the others around the wall for a section of the parking lot, looking back at Jiang Yang and Li Qingning from time to time. He felt guilty, seeing that these two people were dressed as well as the owners of the community, especially the woman.
Wearing a hat and a mask, she looks like a little fairy, not like a mother who works as a cleaner in a community.
When we arrived at the door, before the security guard said anything, the third aunt came out of the toilet with a washbasin, "Yangyang?!"
Jiang Yang turned around and said, "Auntie, you are here too."
"Ah, by the way, I came with your mother."
The third aunt called Jiang Yang to come in quickly.
Jiang Yang thanked the security guard for leading the way, but the security guard reluctantly turned around and left.
The house they live in is not far from the toilet. After entering, there is a small corridor with three rooms. The damp musty smell makes people doubt that mushrooms can grow here. His mother lives in the first room, which is not big.
There are four or five bunk beds, and there are vertical and horizontal pipes on the roof.
"Yangyang is here."
His mother stood up and saw Li Qingning behind Jiang Yang, "This is-"
"mom."
Li Qingning took off his mask.
Jiang Yang's mother clapped her hands, "Ah, Ning Ning, my mother doesn't even dare to recognize her."
She introduced to the people living with her, "This is my son, and I am my daughter-in-law."
Jiang Yang waved to them and asked his mother: "You came to work here and why didn't you say anything to me?"
"What's there to say? Your third aunt and I are just idle at home. It would be great to make some money. Hey, let me tell you, this community is a high-end community. You have to swipe your card to enter and exit the elevator. It's not easy to clean.
It’s hard work. There is a foreigner in Building 9 that I clean. He runs up the stairs every day, takes the elevator down and runs up again..."
"Okay, okay mom."
Jiang Yang interrupted her and asked her what she eats every day, "You are anemic to begin with."
His mother said the food here is good, there is a canteen on the property, meat is provided for every meal, and there are eggs for breakfast——
"Do you eat meat?"
Jiang Yang asked her if her mother was born poor and got the disease of wealth. She didn’t eat meat or anything with meat. The only nutritious thing she could eat was scrambled eggs and she could make delicious food for herself at home.
, it won’t work here.
He looked at the third aunt again, "Did you instigate the third aunt here?"
The third aunt took the opportunity to speak to her mother: "I think it's very good here. The food is better than at home."
The third aunt is a meat-eater.
All the food her mother made went into her stomach.
Jiang Yang looked around and said, "Let's go and pack our things."
"no!"
His mother stopped Jiang Yang, "I've been working for more than a month, what will happen to my salary now that I'm gone?"
Jiang Yang understood that the two of them had gone out to work shortly after they left during the Chinese New Year. "You have done a good job in keeping secrets. You are worthy of being engaged in intelligence work in the village."
However, her health is important. With her body, if she accidentally wears out her body after working for half a month's salary for half a month's salary, it's not worth it. Jiang Yang is determined to let his mother go, but his mother is determined not to leave. As for
The third aunt is somewhere between wanting to leave and not wanting to leave. She doesn't want to leave because the food here is really good and the work isn't too heavy, but she wants to leave because it's boring here and she can't feel at home.
"Mom, like this-"
Li Qingning interrupted the meaningless pull between mother and son, "Go to our place and stay one night first."
His mother thinks this is okay. She has one day off a week, and she hasn't taken off this week yet. She asked the third aunt to take a day off for her tomorrow. "I will wipe the floor for them and make a living by sweeping, and I will come to work the day after tomorrow."
"
"Then I-"
The third aunt was reluctant to leave.
Li Qingning said: "Let Third Aunt go too."
"Need not."
His mother made the final decision, "Your third aunt has taken a break this week. If she takes a break this week, the money will be deducted."
She took out a bag of rice from under the bed and handed it to Jiang Yang, "Here, take it."
Jiang Yang was puzzled, "Where did you get this?"
His mother said that she picked it up while cleaning. The cleaners here not only have to clean, but also throw away garbage for customers. This bag of rice was rejected by a family and was left in the corridor to be thrown away. She picked it up.
"You go back and eat."
Who would throw away this thing for no reason? Jiang Yang looked at the production date and said, "Mom, this is already past the shelf life."
"What's the shelf life of the rice? It's not opened." His mother gave it to Jiang Yang.
Li Qingning pulled Jiang Yang and helped him to the front.
Jiang Yang looked at the pitiful Third Aunt, "Third Aunt, how about——"
The third aunt said no, the salary deduction would be in vain, so she should just wait here for his mother.
