Cheng Tianyuan and Xue Ling looked at each other and replied in unison: "I don't know!"
Chen Shuiyu glanced at her husband and whispered: "I said you are already in your forties, why are you still acting like a little kid! You talk freely all day long and say whatever you like! What couple doesn't quarrel?
Quarreling? Ah? I don’t have enough fights with you, mother?"
Shan Yue murmured and hurriedly buried his head, not daring to refute a word.
Cheng Tianyuan chuckled: "It's okay, Brother Shanyue just cares about them. The young couple is probably angry. I'll tell them when they come over."
Xue Ling also smiled and said: "Maybe by the time I come over in the evening, the two of them will have reconciled!"
Once the topic was over, everyone talked about other things.
Shanyue asked Xue Ling and Xue's mother about the most famous places of interest in the imperial capital. He said that he was free in the afternoon and wanted to take his wife and daughter out to play.
"Autumn is here, and the weather is so nice! Except for the heat at noon, it is very warm and comfortable at other times! This kind of weather is perfect for going out and playing!"
Xue Ling listened with eyes full of yearning.
Cheng Tianyuan pressed her shoulder and whispered: "When you finish your confinement, the autumn weather will be really refreshing, I will take you to climb the mountain."
"Okay!" Xue Ling was filled with joy.
That afternoon, Xue's father came and took his son-in-law to play chess together.
At about four o'clock, Cheng Muhai came with his two grandsons in hand, and Liu Ying followed at the end, with both his left and right hands fully twisted.
The ward became lively again.
The two sons chatted with Xue Ling, and then pestered their father to ride on his neck. Finally, their grandfather and grandpa took him downstairs to find snacks.
Liu Yingze and Xue's mother discussed together what pattern should be knitted for sweaters, laughing and joking.
Xue Ling couldn't help but ask: "Mom, didn't A Heng and A Fang say anything this morning?"
"No!" Liu Ying was stunned for a moment, then answered: "A Heng seemed to have gone out late last night and didn't come back until very late. He refused to say where he went. A Fang had a fit and scolded him. They all
In this case, I don’t want to worry about it! The young couple is just like this, they can just turn around and be fine."
Xue Ling thought thoughtfully and smiled: "Yes! Don't worry about it."
Cheng Tianyuan was busy cleaning up the ward, and said to his mother: "I have installed a phone in the warehouse. Uncle Chang is very used to living here. These days, his face has become fleshy, he has become fairer, and he looks good.
A lot."
Liu Ying smiled and said, "The day before yesterday, your dad took the bus to see him and said the same thing. Uncle Chang said that the place is very spacious and there is such a good kitchen. It is very comfortable to live there. He cleans it every day and takes care of the warehouse.
Don’t dare to be lazy.”
Cheng Tianyuan gave a low "hmm" and said, "It's good for the old man to get used to living there. I'm not just doing this for myself."
At most, there are some paper towels in the warehouse, which are not valuable items. It only needs someone to look after them, and it is not a heavy job at all.
Some middle-aged and elderly people like this kind of relaxed job the most. They don’t have to do anything every day and their wages are stable.
Here in the imperial capital, there is no need to worry about finding an old man to help look after the warehouse. All you have to do is say "Go out" and a lot of people will come to apply for the job.
He asked Chang Bo to come all the way here, probably because he felt sorry for the old man who had no one to rely on and it was too hard to live a wandering life.
If it was just to provide relief to his old man, he probably would not accept it. Being able to give him this job made him feel that he could still make money to support himself with his own hands. He felt more confident and proud. His mental outlook changed and he became more energetic.
.
Liu Ying whispered: "Don't be too frugal with the food expenses you give them. We will give them more than what other people give them. The elderly are reluctant to spend their own money, and their wages are very dense. You
If we pay more for food, they can eat better."
"I know." Cheng Tianyuan said: "When wages are paid at the end of every month, food expenses will also be paid, which is twenty yuan more than other similar jobs."
Liu Ying nodded with satisfaction, "Your father and Uncle Chang have always been very nice and would not treat him badly. Usually when they go to see him, they always carry meat with them."
She felt at ease when her son was doing things and took good care of everything.
Mother Xue was winding the yarn and couldn't help but ask: "Sister Ying, do you think this figure is correct?"
Liu Ying took a look and nodded quickly: "This is good! It looks very cute and suitable for little ones."
After a while, Father Xue and Cheng Muhai came back with their grandchildren.
Dad Xue suggested: "Don't take the bus. I'll take you back together. I haven't had a drink with Brother Mu Hai for a few days. We brothers will take the opportunity to drink two more drinks tonight."
"Okay!" Cheng Muhai was overjoyed, "Just a few more side dishes, let's have a drink!"
Xue Ling hurriedly reminded: "You can't drive after drinking. You'll rest over there tonight!"
"I know, I know." Xue's father said with a smile: "I'll go find Zhilan later and ask him to join in the fun."
Soon, the fathers who had a drinking date tonight took their children back.
Xue Ling yawned and said, "I'll take a nap for a while, and then we'll have dinner when we wake up."
Unexpectedly, Cheng Tianyuan, who was standing at the door, smiled and turned around: "I'm afraid not."
Xue Ling was slightly stunned when she saw her husband opened the door and welcomed a man in - it was Boss Liao!
Liao Zongnan is still as elegant and handsome as ever. Although he is in his fifties, he is full of energy, confident and generous.
Cheng Tianyuan raised his voice: "Boss Liao is here!"
Liao Zongnan chuckled and said hello: "Xiao Xue, A Yuan, I'm sorry to bother you."
"Please take a seat." Xue Ling said with a smile: "I'm sorry, there is nothing to entertain here in the ward. Sit down and have a drink of water first."
Liao Zongnan thanked him with a smile, looked at Xue Ling and asked, "She looks plumper and her complexion has recovered. When can she be discharged from the hospital?"
"I can't be discharged from the hospital for the time being." Xue Ling explained: "I can't be discharged from the hospital until after I give birth."
Boss Liao said warmly: "Being a mother is really not easy."
Xue Lingxiao asked: "Why did you come here at this time? You just got off work, right?"
When she was building Ronghua Mall, Boss Liao helped her a lot. Later, he and several young people helped handle the subsequent leasing and sales of the mall.
There is a property management center in Ronghua Mall. She hired Boss Liao as the director to supervise five or six employees, who deal with various water and electricity problems, rent collection, etc.
Although Boss Liao has become Director Liao, everyone is used to calling him boss and cannot change his tone for a while, even Cheng Tianyuan is no exception.
The property management center is staffed 24 hours a day, but the director only works the day shift and receives a fixed salary of several hundred yuan every month.
Liao Zongnan's eyes moved slightly and he chuckled: "I have to come over to discuss a few things with you."
"Say." Xue Ling said.
Liao Zongnan took out a lease contract from his pocket and explained: "The No. 24 store on the catering street at the back owed rent for more than two months, but they said they would renew the lease for the second half of the year. I asked them to pay the rent.
Otherwise, the contract will not be renewed, but they have not cooperated. According to the provisions of our contract, if the rent arrears exceeds three months, we will have to find the relevant industrial and commercial departments to negotiate and deal with it. This is the first time that this has happened since the mall opened.
Regarding the matter, I think I still need to consult you."
Xue Ling took the contract and took a look at it and said: "If you don't trust people, you can't stand it. People like this won't renew their lease. Once the three months are up, if you don't pay back, you can follow whatever procedures are required. Don't be lenient.
"
She is opening a business, not a charity. The rent can be postponed for a month or two, and if you make up for it in time, you can continue to give opportunities, but if you don't cooperate, then don't blame the landlord for ruthlessly pursuing legal measures.
