Chapter 273: Caught off guard
The two of them ran all the way, and it was already evening when they arrived in Lin Cheng. Since there was no food stored at home, the two of them went to the supermarket to shop, and they were busy until the evening, and it was already eight or nine o'clock when the meal was ready.
Wu Jiang called at this time and asked Chen Shi if he was back, Chen Shi said that as soon as he arrived at home, Wu Jiang couldn't wait to say that he would come over tomorrow, and Chen Shi didn't ask him anything important.
The next day, he completely forgot about it, and at the urging of Li Yalian, he began to clean the house after eating breakfast. Since they have been away for a while, dust has accumulated in the house, so the two of them have to do a big cleaning, and they must be cleaned.
After cleaning for a while, Li Yalian suddenly said, "You go and get the dog back." ”
Of course, their dog was not let go, because it was always on a leash, and it was not taken away when he went home, but it was just placed in the security office, and Chen Shi gave the security guard a little money and asked them to help raise it for a while.
Fortunately, this dog is not so vicious, so after a few days of being raised, Chen Shi was relieved to let the security guard help raise it.
Chen Shi said yes, and then walked out of the house slowly and walked towards the security room. When I came to the security room, I only saw one person on duty, and usually, there are three or four people on duty here, and it is the New Year's holiday, so it may be a holiday.
Chen Shi said hello to the security guard, led the dog and left. The security guards knew him and smiled at him, which was considered a greeting.
After bringing the dog back, Chen Shi got it some food, and saw it wagging its tail and begging for mercy, and Chen Shi liked it, but the dog didn't bathe every day, if you want to get close to it, you have to pay attention, and you will accidentally get a hair on your body.
Although Chen Shi's family has a dog, it is like raising a dog in the countryside, and he does not deliberately take care of it, just feed it, and the rest does not need to be so troublesome. For Chen Shi's parents, if they bathe the dog every day, they will not be able to stand it, and if they are too good to the dog, they will not be able to stand it. Although they love dogs, dogs are dogs after all, and they will never be treated like people, this is the point of view of parents, and Chen Shi will not refute them, as long as they are happy and willing.
When the dog was fed, Chen Shi and Li Yalian were hungry, and the two of them ate something casually to pad their stomachs, and then continued to clean, but at about one o'clock, Wujiang came. He didn't come alone, he actually brought his daughter-in-law, which made Chen Shi slightly surprised, and he couldn't understand what he was doing.
After beckoning the two of them to sit down, Chen Shi and Li Yalian put down all their work. Chen Shi hadn't asked Wu Jiang why he was in such a hurry to find him, the doorman suddenly called and said that someone was looking for him again, and it was He Chunming, Chen Shi hurriedly asked the security guard to let him in.
He asked Wu Jiang suspiciously, "Why are you all agreed?"
Wu Jiang smiled awkwardly and said: "I am not the only one who has made an appointment, everyone has made an appointment, just wait for you to come back, otherwise I won't call to urge you." ”
Chen Shi was clear, it turned out that everyone had discussed it, but there was nothing prepared in his house, which was really a little embarrassing, he looked at Li Yalian and asked, "How many dishes are there at home?"
Li Yalian shook her head and said, "Just the one I bought yesterday, and we ate two meals, how many do you say?"
Of course, the food they bought yesterday was not enough to eat for a few days, they were all home-cooked food, and they were in a hurry, so they just bought some casually.
At this moment, He Chunming came in, he greeted Chen Shi, and carried a gift, of course, he didn't come alone, he brought his daughter-in-law, it seems that they are all educated, all of them are the same?
At this time, everyone caught him off guard, making him cry and laugh, he was afraid that the security guard would call again, so he hurriedly called to inform the security guard, and everyone who came to him today was let in.
After that, he complained to He Chunming: "You didn't say it earlier, there is nothing in the house now, but it makes me embarrassed." ”
He Chunming didn't think of this, he said: "We also want to give you a surprise, we are going to come to celebrate the New Year, we will go out to eat if it is inconvenient for our family, and there are many restaurants that do not have holidays." ”
Chen Shi hurriedly shook his head, he said: "Since you are here, then stay, it is not easy for everyone to have a party, if I still drive everyone out, I can't say it." ”
Li Yalian leaned over and asked, "Then you better hurry up and go grocery shopping! Hurry up, I'm afraid that it will be bad if you haven't come back when everyone comes." ”
Grocery shopping is a must, he said, "You greet the guests at home, and I'll go buy groceries." ”
Fortunately, my own supermarket is not closed, and it is only one or two o'clock now, and it is still too late. He said to He Chunming and Wu Jiang: "You sit down first, I'll be back soon, and by the way, I will help me greet the others." ”
He Chunming promised: "Leave this matter to me, and I will definitely get it done properly for you." ”
He Chunming is doing things, of course Chen Shi is at ease, and with a Wujiang help, he is even more at ease.
He grabbed the medicine spoon and wallet, quickly went out, and drove straight to the supermarket. As soon as she arrived at the door of the villa area, she suddenly saw Yang Qin, the supermarket manager, Chen Shi stopped to greet her, and she asked, "Boss, where are you going?"
Chen Shi said: "Didn't I just return home, you came here without any preparations, I had to go grocery shopping!"
Yang Qin laughed and said: "I'll go with you, help by the way, most of the people in the supermarket don't know you, if I go, I'll go faster, let them help, and it will be done in a while." ”
Chen Shi thought for a while and said, "It's okay, then you hurry up and get in the car." ”
Yangqin was carrying something in his hand, and Chen Shi said, "Put it in the security room." ”
The security guard knows Chen Shi, just say a word, and take it back by the way when he comes back. After Yang Qin got into the car, Chen Shi started the car and drove quickly to the supermarket.
Along the way, Chen Shi asked about raising the piano for the New Year, and the two chatted briefly about homely things, and soon arrived at the door of the supermarket. Since it was the Chinese New Year, Chen Shi parked the car directly at the entrance of the supermarket, and he didn't have to worry about blocking others, of course the people in the supermarket wouldn't care, because the general manager spoke, who would dare to say more?
After entering the supermarket, Yang Qin shouted: "Xiao Liu, Xiao Li, the two of you come over to help, one of you pushes a shopping cart over." ”
Two employees came over very quickly, one pushing a shopping cart, Yang Qin and Chen Shi walked in front, and the two followed behind, and then walked all the way, picking food all the way. Yang Qin first asked Chen Shi what he was willing to buy, what kind of things he needed, what things he didn't need, Chen Shi didn't have anything at home, so he said that he could do anything, he wanted everything, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, vegetables, chicken, duck, fish, and meat were all missing, so there was almost no choice, and he took some of everything all the way.
As for the weight, Chen Shi asked Yang Qin to estimate, because there were about a dozen people who came, all of whom were Chen Shi's subordinates, so Chen Shi said the number of people and asked Yang Qin to watch and buy, as for him, he used it as a coolie, because he didn't understand it very well, under normal circumstances, shopping was decided by Li Yalian, of course he was not very proficient.
Yang Qin has been a specialized housewife, of course, she is more proficient in this, so when choosing ingredients, it is completely her idea, and Chen Shi just nodded.
The two shopping carts were quickly filled, Chen Shi and Xiao Liu moved things to the car together, put the trunk full and then put it in the back seat, and only stopped after the car was full, and finally Chen Shi estimated that a total of four or five trips were run, that is to say, the shopping cart was about four or five cars.
After settling the account, Chen Shi thanked the two employees who helped and sent them two red envelopes, the two resolutely refused, Chen Shi looked at Yang Qin, and Yang Qin nodded before the two of them handed down the red envelopes.
It's a big holiday, people don't rest and work overtime, it's already hard, and they have to help him, of course, it's even harder, Chen Shi should give them red envelopes, he is the boss, although he can't take care of everyone, but the two people who help him still have to take care of it.
After getting in the car, Yang Qin said with a smile: "It's their luck to have a boss like you." It's a pity that you gave people red envelopes, but you didn't send me one. ”
Chen Shi smiled: "You don't have to send it, people are just small employees, you are the general manager." ”
Yang Qin said: "The bigger the position, the worse the treatment?"
Chen Shi laughed, he knew that Yang Qin was joking. When he was about to get home, Chen Shi asked: "I don't know if they have arrived, who organized it by dragging their families and making me so embarrassed?"
Yang Qin said: "I don't know, everyone called to inform each other, and then made an appointment." ”
Chen Shi was just joking, he suddenly thought that everyone else had dragged their families to come, but Yang Qin came alone, and asked, "Wujiang and He Chunming both brought their families, why did you come alone?"
Yang Qin shook her head and said, "My husband has something to do, and the children are all older." ”
Of course, it is not good to take the child out when he is older, only the child will follow his parents to drink wine or go to the guests. Chen Shi didn't continue to ask, he is not a person who likes to break the casserole and ask to the end, he will not inquire into other people's private affairs.
Ten minutes later, when they arrived at the gate of the villa area, Chen Shi stopped the car, personally went to the security room to bring Yang Qin's things, and then gave the security guard on duty a pack of cigarettes, and said: "It's hard work, I have to be on duty for the New Year." The security guard wanted to refuse, but Chen Shi had already run away.
When he got home, as soon as he stopped the car, he saw a lot of acquaintances, everyone came out to help, Taozi took the lead, other men and women had, the men did manual work, carrying heavy things, and the women helped Li Yalian wash the vegetables together, wash the rice, everyone was handy, and after a while, they moved all the things in a car.
After Chen Shi entered the house, he saw many people he didn't know, most of them were their family members, all women.
None of the women under him brought their families, like Yang Qin, they all came alone, and only the men brought their daughters-in-law and wives over. The women gathered together and chatted, and the men also got together, divided into several waves, and looked extremely lively.
