That night, after Cheng Tianfang and Xue Heng finished eating, they bought a lot of kitchen utensils, plates, dishes and chopsticks.
Thinking that I had to go to work tomorrow morning, I simply bought some steamed buns and planned to steam them for breakfast.
Xue Heng thought for a while and whispered: "Just have some casual breakfast."
"Then we can't just eat steamed buns." Cheng Tianfang pouted: "How about making some millet porridge. It can be cooked in less than twenty minutes."
Xue Heng smiled bitterly: "But in that case, you will have to get up more than half an hour earlier. If the tableware and other things are washed, you will probably have to get up an hour earlier."
Cheng Tianfang frowned upon hearing this.
I go to work on time at eight o'clock, and it takes at least ten minutes to drive to the TV station. If this is the case, I have to get up after six o'clock in the morning.
Usually she doesn't get up until half past seven...
Seeing her frown, Xue Heng said hurriedly: "How about this, put the bowls and chopsticks aside after eating, and then we can clean them up together when we come back in the evening. There are only two of us anyway, and there aren't many bowls and chopsticks."
"What do you think!" Cheng Tianfang snorted: "You need a pot to cook millet porridge, and you need a steamer to steam bread. It's not as simple as just two bowls!"
Xue Heng coaxed: "It's okay. I'll help with the washing when you come back in the evening. If it's too busy occasionally, we'll go to the back of the mall to eat. The whole street is so long, with dozens of shops, and a lot of things to eat."
"Yes." Cheng Tianfang finally showed a smile.
Xue Heng added: "When we have children in the future, our mother and father will help us. If we are too busy, we can also hire a nanny. There is no need to worry about money."
Cheng Tianfang nodded.
The two unscrewed the things and entered the door, turning on the light.
Except for the living room, which was barely ok, the rest of the place was covered in a layer of dust.
The two had no choice but to roll up their sleeves and go scrub the kitchen first.
"When was the last time I cleaned it?" Cheng Tianfang muttered: "By the way, it was the day after I came back from training last time. It's only been a month, why is it so dirty!"
Xue Heng explained: "This is not bad. If it is a factory in the suburbs, it is very dusty and has to be cleaned almost every day."
The two of them were cleaning and chatting.
After more than half an hour, I finally cleaned up the kitchen.
Cheng Tianfang wondered: "There is always no one at home, so using briquettes is too wasteful. And the air is not good!"
Xue Heng thought for a while and replied: "How about using a gas stove like my elder brother and others! Many families in the imperial capital have already started to use gas stoves."
When talking about her eldest brother, Cheng Tianfang couldn't help but feel sad.
"My parents only love my eldest brother...that's how he's been since he was little!"
Xue Heng frowned slightly and whispered: "You are wrongly blaming your parents. You are the youngest daughter, so they naturally love you more. The eldest brother is a very independent person and respects his parents very much. You can't just because of a moment
If you are unhappy, just vent your anger."
Cheng Tianfang hummed: "I'm telling the truth! They help my eldest brother and sister-in-law cook three meals and do housework. Look, my sister-in-law doesn't have to cook at all. My brother and my parents are doing all the work."
Xue Heng whispered: "But whatever the old man needs, it is all purchased by your sister-in-law. Not only that, the money they usually spend is also given by your sister-in-law. The day before yesterday, I was the one who accompanied Dad when they remitted money from the Rongcheng Photo Gallery.
Go get it. It’s thousands of dollars a month, sometimes hundreds. Dad said they haven’t had to ask your brother for money to buy three meals in these years. The money is used to feed and drink for all of us, and occasionally there is still money left."
Cheng Tianfang was slightly stunned, then muttered dissatisfiedly.
"Isn't it just a little money? I have money too! So do you! Let's pay them living expenses, that's all!"
Xue Heng asked funnyly: "Do you have enough money? The expenses of a family are quite large, and your salary is definitely not enough!"
Cheng Tianfang couldn't help but think of the bakery downstairs.
"In the beginning, the store could still make some money, thousands of dollars a month, and even more than 2,000 yuan a month..."
Xue Heng advised: "Investing in a store requires time and energy. You have traveled frequently this year and have not been strict in your work, so the employees will naturally slack off. I think you might as well rent out the store first. The rent should be more than your salary."
Even more. In this way, you will have more income, and you don’t have to allocate time to take care of it. Otherwise, you will lose more than you gain by focusing on one.”
"That makes sense." Cheng Tianfang thought for a while and asked, "Is the rent that high?"
"Yes." Xue Heng replied: "Ronghua Mall is the most prosperous shopping mall in the imperial capital. Haven't you seen it? There are so many shops upstairs and downstairs!"
Cheng Tianfang nodded: "Okay, let's rent it out!"
Xue Heng finished wiping the dining table and wiped the stools.
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Ah Heng! Ah Fang!" was Chen's voice.
Cheng Tianfang hurriedly walked out and opened the door.
"Mom, when did you come back?"
Mrs. Chen smiled and replied: "We came back in the evening and had dinner at my mother-in-law's place."
When Cheng Tianfang heard this, the smile on his face twitched in embarrassment.
Mrs. Chen saw it clearly and saw her son cleaning the stool, and secretly laughed in her heart.
"Are you still doing hygiene at this late hour? Do it quickly! Go to bed early at night."
Xue Heng stopped her and asked: "Mom, do you want some water? I'll cook it!"
Mrs. Chen shook his head: "No, I just came to say hello to you. Ah Heng, I have to buy a thermos pot here, boil some water and pour it into it. You can drink it at any time when you come in and out. Fortunately, there are no guests here, otherwise the guests would come in and wait for you.
It takes more than half an hour to boil the water and then let it dry for drinking."
Xue Heng laughed "hehehe" and nodded: "Okay, I'll buy it tomorrow."
Mrs. Chen added: "You don't need to clean too much. There is also the room where you live in the living room. You can do other things when you have time on weekends. You go to work during the day and have housework at home in the evening. Don't be too tired."
"I know." They both said in unison.
Mrs. Chen tugged at the corner of her son's clothes and whispered: "My in-laws are willing to let you rub against each other because they love you. But A Fang is married after all, so she can't be so confident. You have to secretly explain this to her.
."
"Yeah." Xue Heng murmured: "I know these."
Mrs. Chen smiled, nodded and left.
Cheng Tianfang closed the door and muttered: "Husband, I think your mother and the others must have known about it."
"You know it." Xue Heng laughed and said, "Sooner or later we have to be independent. And since you are marrying me, we are a small family together. We have to take care of our own family!"
Cheng Tianfang continued cleaning.
One person swept the floor and the other mopped the floor, and the room and living room were quickly cleaned.
"I'm so tired! Take a shower and go to bed early!"
Early the next morning, the alarm clock rang!
I always wake up at seven or eight o'clock. Suddenly I woke up an hour early, and the two of them yawned nonstop.
One person goes to make porridge first, and the other goes to wash up.
Cheng Tianfang exclaimed: "This stove is too slow! After boiling it for a long time, the water is still cold!"
"Why is the steamer missing?! What are you using to steam the buns?!"
Xue Heng saw her busy in the kitchen and hurried in to help.
At this time, there was a knock on the door!
Xue Heng turned around and opened the door - he saw Xue Ling holding a plate in his hand, with several hot rice dumplings on top, lingering in the heat.
She explained: "Sister Ah Chun made it early in the morning and has just cooked it. Eat it while it's hot!"
Xue Heng burst into tears of gratitude: "Sister, I love you!"
Xue Ling rolled his eyes and turned back.
That morning, they ate rice dumplings for breakfast and then went to work.
Cheng Tianfang looked at the still messy kitchen, remembering the past at her parents' house where she could eat whatever she wanted and take whatever she wanted, and she felt mixed emotions for a moment.
If you are used to being cared for by your parents, you should take it for granted.
