Chapter 14 Pick up a babysitter
After a few days without work, Taulag was almost overstretched.
I didn't have the money to hire a repairman to repair the circuit, and I lived by eating steamed buns every meal, and I was unlucky to find a good job during the Spring Festival.
Finally, one day, Taulag dropped a coin in a public phone booth and dialed the number on someone's business card.
The palms of the hands holding the earpiece were a little sweaty.
She herself is a little embarrassed.
"Hello?"
Taurag's timid voice.
"I'm busy, I'll be back later."
Before Taurag could react, there was only a busy sound of "beep" in his ears.
Actually, hung up?
Taulag immediately regretted making the call. It was only after a long ideological struggle that she decided to dial this number and ask Lu Xichang if he had any jobs to introduce to her. Now, however, it's cool.
But Taurag still didn't give up.
She was cheeky enough to occupy the phone booth, just because of Lu Xichang's "I'll be back later", which meant that she didn't have to lose her face with the redial number.
As it turned out, Taurag's patience was worth it.
"Hmm...... I don't have a nanny at home, will you come? ”
Lu Xi's warm voice echoed in his mind over and over again.
Taurag is still messy in the wind, what does she do, OK?
Mr. Lu did not talk about the babysitter's daily work and salary on the phone, but he told Taurag that he could go to his house this afternoon to find out.
Lu Xichang had a rare rest in the afternoon.
Taurag Dripping came to the villa outside the N Ring Road far from the city center. Don't ask the road idiot how Taulrag arrived at his destination accurately and speechlessly.
She went around for a long time, and there was not a single one in her pocket. They were all taken away by the Didi driver!
Standing in the beautiful courtyard where the plum fragrance floats, Tao Lag has a bitter face.
"You're here?"
A gentle voice came from the balcony on the second floor, and Tao Lag raised his eyes to see that Lu Xichang was holding a cup of coffee and sipping lightly, looking very relaxed. He wears a gray turtleneck, linen trousers, and a pair of home slippers.
The image of the suit and leather shoes seen by Taulag on weekdays is not quite the same.
At the behest of his master, Taurag pushed open the rosewood door and entered the living room on the first floor.
Light luxury industrial style.
The exposed ceiling, cold cement, twisted metal pipes, gray wall tiles, and black shaw carpet reveal the owner's maverick and avant-garde nature.
The black is mysterious and cold, the white is light and elegant, and the cold tones show the owner's quiet and introverted mind.
Quite stylish.
After a glance, Taurag made an assessment.
Because Lu Xichang hadn't come down yet, Taurag stood on the shaw carpet in a regular manner, and did not sit on the sofa casually.
"Sit down."
Someone behind him let out a mellow smile, and Taurag nodded slightly and sat down.
"Do you have any questions? For the job of a nanny? ”
Lu Xichang handed the freshly brewed cream coffee to Tao Lagh and asked in a brisk tone.
"Thank you. I never drink coffee. ”
Taulag didn't take the coffee, and his tone was slightly awkward, "Daily...... What do you need me to do? ”
"I spend most of the day at the office and go back here at night to rest. Once a month, on Saturdays and Sundays, one day stays at Lu's house, and one day rests here. ”
"So what do I need to do?"
Seeing that Lu Xichang answered the question, Taurag repeated his question again.
The corners of Lu Xi's mouth were raised, it seemed that this fool really didn't understand what he meant.
"Uh...... Actually, there is nothing special, you just need to keep the living room, bedroom, and study clean. The kitchen is basically useless. ”
Tao Lag glanced at the spotless coffee table, she really suspected that Lu Xichang was pitiful to her, and deliberately hired her as a nanny who didn't have to do anything and paid a white-collar salary.
Taurag asked in a skeptical tone, "If it's really just these jobs, I won't have to go to work." ”
"I'm going to eat at home every night."
Originally, I wanted to say that in the morning, considering that the little nanny also had to get up early with her biological clock, Lu Xichang decisively changed it to evening.
"Are you sure you had dinner at home, and you did before?"
Taulag saw the clue from the phrase "the kitchen is basically useless".
"Ahem, of course. By the way, do you make coffee? ”
"No, it won't."
Taullag replied honestly.
"Well, that's okay. I like to make my own coffee anyway. So, what are your requirements for salary? ”
While the latter sentence was a concern for Taulag, she didn't show extra enthusiasm this time.
"You look at it yourself."
Taurag felt unworthy of a good salary at such an easy job.
"You can live here while you're working."
"No, I've already rented the house."
Taurag would certainly not agree to do so little, receive a good salary, and live in someone's villa for nothing.
"You're very angry, Taurag." Lu Xichang felt her obvious resistance, "This is the most basic work treatment, don't you accept it in the hot pot restaurant?" ”
"Ah, I didn't rent a good house then."
Taurag replied.
Lu Xi said slightly, "I think you misunderstood." It's not because I'm the elder brother of Xi Ning that I take special care of her good friends, you know? ”
Taurag did not answer.
"Oh, Xining's New Year's gift to you."
Lu Xichang changed the topic in a timely manner.
A square box was pushed onto the coffee table in Taurague's side.
"Open it and take a look."
Taurag opened the box, revealing a rose-gold touchscreen phone.
"Xi Ning said that you don't use a mobile phone, it's always inconvenient for you to be such a big person. I'm still haunted by Xi Ning's last accident ̅ ̅ ̅If she didn't have her phone with her, who would you turn to for help?
Lu Xi's good-looking eyebrows twisted into the crux, "I really don't want this to happen to anyone." ”
"Okay, thank you for me."
There were fine tears in Tao Lag's eyes, and he looked very aggressive, Lu Xining, who was mainly me, was actually careful and sensitive.
For her, for that Jiang Hai, it can be imagined.
"I've already saved my number. You can call her at any time. My Number ...... Same as on the business card. ”
Lu Xichang, who was gentle and elegant, and talked politely, said these words to Taolag, and his expression was a little clumsy.
"I see. I accepted Xi Ning's wishes. However, the money for this mobile phone is deducted from my first month's salary, okay? ”
"This is what Xi Ning meant, and it has nothing to do with me. How can I deduct your wages? Isn't that? ”
Lu Xichang admired Taolag's stubbornness on some issues, but also had a headache.
"You're brother and sister, the same."
Taurag stopped digging into the nitty-gritty of his phone and got up to leave.
"Hey, Taurag, don't you have to look around, get acquainted with the environment?"
Lu Xichang called out to the figure who was fading away with some amusement.
"There will be more opportunities in the future, and I will be familiar with it every day!"
The crisp and crisp voice of the Taurag echoed in the secluded courtyard.
"It's a weird temper."
Lu Xichang poured the coffee that had been abandoned by Taolag and had long been cold on the root of the cactus, and said to himself, "I really wish there was a person living here, at least I don't have to face the empty wall alone, what about you, Xiaosi?" ”
The verdant cactus, of course, would not open his mouth to answer his question.
The shallow and warm smile was covered on Lu Xining's vivid face after she raised this question.
