Chapter 234: Small Talk
"Get up and have breakfast. Baby, I'm going to buy you your favorite buns. ”
Bai Xiaojiu opened his eyes in a daze, squinted and smiled at Qi Jingchen who was lying beside him, and stretched, "What time is it? Mom seems to have been discharged from the hospital at half past ten?"
Speaking of this lazily, he closed his eyes and stared for a while, then suddenly opened them, looked at Qi Jingchen, and tilted his head suspiciously, "Why didn't you go to work?"
Qi Jingchen had not obviously shown his inferiority complex before, and he didn't know that Bai Xiaojiu could see it.
Bai Xiaojiu has never said it explicitly, I know you have low self-esteem.
One of the two people thought he was hiding it well, and the other was clear but unwilling to pierce it.
Since Li Zhe's incident caused the two people to almost quarrel, Qi Jingchen had a showdown, and Bai Xiaojiu responded clearly.
One knows that his inferiority complex is known to her, but is also accepted, and the other knows the approximate reason for his real inferiority.
This kind of confession makes the two seem to be one step closer and more intimate.
Looking at each other is also more pleasing to the eye, Bai Xiaojiu looked at Qi Jingchen and smirked at this moment.
Although he knew that he should be at work at the moment, it felt so good that he appeared in front of her and told her to wake up for breakfast.
"Auntie was discharged from the hospital today. During this time, we were busy with work and didn't take much care of it. I had to pick her up and get her out of the hospital. I can pick it up in the morning and go back to work in the afternoon. Qi Jingchen reached out and pinched her cheek, "Do you want to get up?" ”
"Anyway, I took a morning off, why don't you just take a day?" Bai Xiaojiu hugged his arm and rubbed it coquettishly, his voice was delicate and soft.
Qi Jingchen was made to feel crisp by this voice every time, laughed heartily, and scratched her nose, "So, I took a day off." ”
Bai Xiaojiu took the opportunity to turn over, pressed him, and rubbed his cheek with his mouth with a smile, "If you don't wash, you will stink to death, rub it." ”
Qi Jingchen smiled even more happily, hugged her in his arms, and continued to whisper: "I was halfway there, and I suddenly felt that you would definitely be very tired when you went to pick up people alone. So I thought about it, took a leave of absence, and bought you breakfast by the way. I didn't expect you to sleep so early last night, and you were so able to sleep, huh?"
"I've set an alarm. Nine o'clock, what time is it?" Bai Xiaojiu leaned on him, closed his eyes again, yawned, and refused to open his eyes.
This look was soft and cute, so he couldn't help but hug her hand tightly, "It's half past eight." Get up?"
Qi Jingchen's words made Bai Xiaojiu open his eyes again, and looked at him suspiciously, "You usually get up at the starting point, and you have to arrive at the company at half past eight, why are you only home now?"
If Qi Jingchen went out at seven o'clock and walked halfway, he suddenly decided to ask for leave and line up to buy breakfast and come back, it would not take an hour and a half.
Bai Xiaojiu didn't question anything, he was just curious, why did he delay for so long.
Bai Junguo had to be completely recuperated before he was discharged from the hospital, and just happened to meet Bai Xiaojiu to rest, Qi Jingchen was originally worried that she would not be able to help alone.
Ke Bai Junguo and Qiu Zhuping were both hospitalized before, and Qi Jingchen asked for leave a lot, and he had just gone to work.
Bai Xiaojiu was willing to ask him for leave repeatedly, just for the sake of her family's affairs, anyway, she rested and forced him to go to work honestly.
Who knew that he hadn't slept enough, and he was woken up, and he was surprised, but he was a little worried, so he inevitably cared a little more.
Qi Jingchen didn't care that Bai Xiaojiu even had to ask at this time, the more detailed she asked, the more it showed that she cared about him.
"Didn't I say it, I was halfway there, and suddenly I felt that you were too tired to be alone. Instead of listening to you and going to work obediently, it is better to simply make your own decisions and come back to accompany you. ”
When Qi Jingchen said this, he rubbed Bai Xiaojiu's cheek with his cheek, and stretched out his hand to smooth her messy hair, "I'm afraid that you will be angry and say that I am disobedient, so I went to line up to buy breakfast for some time." ”
"Halfway. You're not going to be on the bus and suddenly get off the bus and run back, right?" Bai Xiaojiu was a little surprised, and pursed his lips and laughed heartily.
"Yes, as soon as the driver opened the door, I was like an arrow, I got out of the car with a whoosh, and ran away. Qi Jingchen couldn't help but scratch her hair again, "Hurry up, the buns are really cold." I'll wait for you to eat with me. ”
"Then get up and eat. Bai Xiaojiu lifted the thin blanket, got up and knelt on the bed and stretched out his hand to him.
Before she could speak, Qi Jingchen took the initiative to lean over and hug her, "Do you want to experience the life of a queen who stretches her hands and eats to open her mouth?"
"If you can, you'll have to work. Bai Xiaojiu just wanted to be coquettish, and when she heard him say this, she giggled and stuck to him.
"Yes, my Majesty. Qi Jingchen hugged her hard, "Be my queen, don't dress." So be it. ”
"The king's new clothes, don't bring such a slamming door! ”
"It's still early anyway, so why don't you eat me before breakfast? It's hotter than buns, do you want?"
"You're beautiful. Accompany me to change clothes and wash up. Swing!"
The two of them finished washing, changed their clothes and finished breakfast, and when they arrived at the ward, Bai Junguo and Qiu Zhuping had already packed their things and were sitting on the side of the hospital bed chatting with the next bed.
"Alas, your daughter and son-in-law are here, let's go quickly. There is a 60-year-old grandmother living in the hospital bed next door, usually accompanied by her husband, and the two of them are gray-haired, but they never leave.
Since she came in the hospital, Bai Xiaojiu always had to help them do more when she came to the ward.
"Grandma Zhang, let's leave today. Next time you have to ask a nurse for help, don't always do it yourself. Bai Xiaojiu smiled and nodded at them, and handed over the fruit in his hand, "We bought it on the way here, don't eat too much in a day." Eating some fruit every day is good for your health. ”
"Your daughter is really well raised. Thank you, Xiao Jiu'er. Thank you. Grandma Zhang was about to struggle from the hospital bed, but she was held down by her husband next to her, took the fruit and smiled gratefully at Bai Xiaojiu, "I remember everything." When you're old, it's time to get old. ”
"Grandpa Chen doesn't look old at all, you two are in your early fifties when you look at it, and you're only halfway through your life. It's just that Grandma Zhang is sick now, don't be reckless. If you're tired, who's going to take care of her? Bai Xiaojiu replied very patiently, took the things under Qiu Zhuping's feet, and was snatched by Qi Jingchen to carry them.
Grandma Zhang and Grandpa Chen glanced at each other, saw the two children laugh, and then looked at Qiu Zhuping, "You are really good at raising a daughter, your daughter can take care of people, she has a sweet mouth, and she is sensible and filial." I'm so envious. ”
"Don't boast, praise this kid so that his tail can go to heaven. I was discharged from the hospital today, and I wish you an early discharge as well. ”
"Uh-huh. Get out of the hospital early. Go home and rest. It's so boring to live in the hospital every day. ”
"No, my mother lives in the hospital and can't play mahjong. I guess ah, for mahjong is now like an arrow. Bai Xiaojiu turned around and helped her take out all the messy things in the cabinet, and replied casually.
These words made everyone in the ward laugh, Bai Junguo walked over with a smile and scratched her head, and took the things in her hand, "Your mother is going crazy." I got up at six o'clock in the morning, and I asked vigorously, "Are you going to be discharged from the hospital today?" Is it completely well? Can you go play cards in the afternoon?"
"I knew it. Bai Xiaojiu laughed, handed the remaining things in the cabinet to Qi Jingchen, and took the backpack that Qiu Zhuping was carrying, "Are the formalities completed, do you still need to do anything?"
"Your mother is very anxious, can she still wait for you to come? Go home. ”
"Did I tell you to buy groceries? I eat in the hospital every day, and I die of discomfort when I eat. Qiu Zhuping saw that everything was finished, no one let herself touch it, smiled and waved goodbye to Grandma Zhang, and followed out of the ward.
"I bought it, but I bought it yesterday. Didn't buy it this morning. I'm afraid it's too late. Don't blame me if it's not fresh enough. Bai Xiaojiu glanced at Qi Jingchen's strangled red hand and muttered, "Why do you live in a courtyard with so many things." ”
"Your mother is hospitalized and can't wait to move her home. There are so many things like this. Bai Junguo replied, followed her line of sight to Qi Jingchen's hand, laughed sullenly, leaned over to get it, "It's too heavy, right? I'll help you share a little." ”
"No, no, no. I can, uncle. Qi Jingchen was carrying the heaviest things, full of joy, if he hadn't suddenly decided to come with Bai Xiaojiu today, how could Bai Xiaojiu have taken so many things alone.
"Just get home in a hurry. What kind of taxi. How expensive. If it weren't for your sister's business trip today, it would be nice to ask her to drive the car. Qiu Zhuping muttered as he sat in the co-pilot.
Bai Xiaojiu gestured to the driver to open the trunk, and when Qi Jingchen and Bai Junguo went to put things, they got into the car, "You just got out of the hospital, what kind of car are you driving?" Take a taxi and hurry home to wash, have a meal, and play mahjong to win money." ”
Hearing the word winning, Qiu Zhuping showed a smile, "I love to hear this." ”
The male driver sitting in the cab, looking in his forties, also laughed when he heard the conversation between the mother and son, "This eldest sister, your daughter is right, she was discharged from the hospital, although she is in good health, she is not tired." It's easier to take a taxi home. When people are relaxed, their mood is good, and when they are in a good mood, they are easy to win. ”
"Hahaha, win win win. ”
As soon as Bai Junguo opened the car door, he heard the word winning, and he was a little confused, "Who won the money?"
"Oh, it's just a stretch of the road, do you still want to let me go? Hurry up and get in the car and go home." Today, we have a chef cooking for us. ”
Bai Junguo glared at her, glanced at Qi Jingchen beside him, pointed at him, and waited for him to go in and sit in the middle, then got into the car and closed the door, "What chef?"
"What? You hired a chef? Where? Who?"
Bai Xiaojiu grabbed Qi Jingchen's arm and swung his chin towards him, "Na, freshly baked chef." During this time, he continued to study his cooking skills and has improved. ”
These words made Qi Jingchen himself laugh, originally Bai Xiaojiu planned not to let Qiu Zhuping get tired at noon, and she cooked by herself.
But Qi Jingchen understands her, and she has also learned to cook during this time, and the taste is quite edible, and it is good that the two of them are not picky.
Now that she said this, how dare she make an axe in front of Qiu Zhuping, and used a smile to hide her embarrassment.
Qiu Zhuping patted the back of the chair, "That's a good feeling, try the craftsmanship of the minister at noon." ”
"Let's go, then. Let's go home. ”
