Chapter 682: Mother's Wish 4
After parting ways, Lin Xiaoman carried his bag and walked for three minutes to the community's elderly activity center.
The husband of the original owner, Li Yanying, died when Shen Xinyi was in junior high school, and fell into the river on the way home from drunkenness, and no one found out, and then drowned.
After the man died, in order to allow her daughter to go to high school and college, Li Yanying went to Wu City to work, first as a nurse in the hospital, saving money for her daughter to study.
After graduating from high school, Shen Xinyi applied for the university in Wu City, and the mother and daughter were reunited, and then graduated from college, because of Zhou Yang's relationship, Shen Xinyi stayed here, and Li Yanying also stayed in Wu City.
Five years ago, Li Yanying met Mrs. Sun in the hospital, Mrs. Sun's wife is gone, and the children are all busy people who are busy making money, all of them are in other big cities, and they come back for the New Year's holidays, and they usually have little time to take care of the elderly.
Considering that the old lady is old, it is inconvenient to live alone, and she needs to be taken care of, the old lady's children who are not bad for money impress Li Yanying with high salaries.
Li Yanying became Mrs. Sun's nanny, lived in Sun's house, and was responsible for taking care of the old lady's diet and daily life.
Occasionally, when Li Yanying has something to do, she will send Mrs. Sun to the community's elderly activity center, where there are special caregivers and there is nothing to worry about.
"Aunt Li, you're back."
As soon as Lin Xiaoman entered the door, Jiang Yu, a young employee at the front desk of the community center, greeted her very warmly, and then showed obvious gossip and curiosity, and asked, "How about it, Sister Xinyi's wedding house has been bought, right?" ”
"Mm-hmm, I've bought it." Lin Xiaoman smiled and didn't say much.
"Oh, Aunt Li, you really found a good son-in-law, such a big house, you will pay the full amount, Sister Xinyi will marry in the future, and you will be happy." The little girl Jiang Yu's face was full of envy.
Li Yanying also mentioned a few words to Mrs. Sun when she went out in the morning, and at this time, it was obvious that everyone knew about it.
The news spread quickly.
As for the enjoyment?
Hehe.
Lin Xiaoman, who didn't want to mention this matter at all, responded vaguely, and then changed the topic, "By the way, Xiao Jiang, the person introduced by Sister Yang last time, have you become the person?" ”
Jiang Yu's smile froze, and she was unhappy, the man introduced by Aunt Yang had a very good appearance and conditions, and she liked it very much, but the key was that the other party didn't take a fancy to her, hey.
Jiang Yu muttered, "No." Maybe I won't call, but I haven't been in touch since I saw it. ”
"In this way, Aunt Gai Ming'er will introduce you to one."
Li Yanying can also be regarded as a part-time matchmaker, and she has the information of hundreds of single men and women in her hands.
Jiang Yu became happy again, "Aunt Li, that's really bothering you." ”
"No trouble, no trouble." Waving his hand, Lin Xiaoman ended the conversation, "Ah, it's not early, I'll pick up Aunt Sun back, and I still have to cook." ”
"Grandma Sun seems to be over there......" Jiang Yu pointed.
……
In the large activity room, there is a basketball court, where you can play chess, watch TV, and play mahjong...... A group of elderly people gathered together, and it was very lively.
Following the direction Jiang Yu pointed out and looking at it a few times, Lin Xiaoman found Mrs. Sun.
The old lady was chatting with several old sisters of about the same age, drinking tea.
It is said that three women in one play, a group of retired old ladies get together, and there are endless words to talk about.
"Xiao Li is back."
When Lin Xiaoman walked over, a sharp-eyed old lady was the first to see her and said hello.
"Eh, Sister Xia." Lin Xiaoman greeted with a smile, "What did the old ladies say?" So happy. ”
"Coincidentally, I'm talking about you." Mrs. Sun spoke.
Mrs. Sun, who is in her early seventies this year, has gray hair, and her face is full of wrinkles.
Mrs. Sun stretched out her hand and beckoned to her, "Xiao Li, come on, come on, tell me, has the matter of the house been decided?" ”
"It's already decided, it's an existing house, and you can get the keys next week after completing the formalities and paying the money." didn't mention the name, Lin Xiaoman replied happily.
"That's a good relationship, when are you going to get married? When the time comes, we old ladies can be invited to eat a candy and be happy. ”
"Of course ......"
felt bad in his heart, but Lin Xiaoman was smiling on the surface.
Here, whoever has such a little thing happening in the family will be spread, and gossip is definitely one of the great interests of the elderly.
So the name of the house is a bit of a mess, and Lin Xiaoman didn't plan to tell a group of outsiders.
After arguing with this group of old ladies for more than half an hour, when the cooking time was coming, Lin Xiaoman took Mrs. Sun to say goodbye.
Mrs. Sun has bad legs and feet, and she will get tired after standing for a long time, so she carries a wheelchair when she goes out.
Helping the person to the wheelchair, Lin Xiaoman pushed her slowly and went back to Mrs. Sun's house.
Mrs. Sun's house is next to the community, which is an old villa community, a two-story villa, more than 200 square meters, with a small yard, and there are a lot of her heavy dishes in the yard.
Although it looks a little dilapidated, this market value can only be looked up to for Lin Xiaoman now.
went home, tuned the TV to the opera channel for Mrs. Sun, and Lin Xiaoman went into the kitchen to cook.
The old lady had a bad tooth, so she cooked a porridge, and made a pumpkin and a stewed egg, and dinner was solved.
In the evening, Lin Xiaoman pushed Mrs. Sun to shake around the community, went home, and at seven o'clock, simply helped her wash, and the old lady went to bed.
Because of her age, the children are worried that the old lady will have an accident when she falls asleep, so Lin Xiaoman, the nanny, is in the same room with the old lady.
Of course, two beds.
This room is opened by two rooms, more than 60 square meters, not to mention two beds, three are not too much, not crowded at all.
The old lady was watching TV, and Lin Xiaoman was nesting on the sofa stool and playing with his mobile phone.
In the age of smartphones, it is very convenient.
Shen Xinyi's company has a staff dormitory, which is similar to a single apartment, and the conditions are very good, so she is a dormitory.
sent her a message and asked her to go back to the dormitory to reply to a message, and Lin Xiaoman began to check his 'wallet'.
In addition to making mistakes in marriage, Shen Xinyi's daughter is very sensible and filial in other aspects.
Since high school, she has been working part-time to earn money every winter and summer vacation, so the cost of her study is actually not much.
Li Yanying works as a nurse, this work is tiring, but she earns a lot, the children of Mrs. Sun's family are rich, and the nanny fee is high, it was 6,000 five years ago, and now it has risen to 8,000, and red envelopes will be given during the New Year's holidays. And the nanny's job is to eat and live, and she doesn't have any expenses at all.
So now, Li Yanying's deposit is nearly 500,000.
For an ordinary middle-aged woman like Li Yanying, it is really not easy to save so much money, but in Lin Xiaoman's opinion, it is a bit little.
500,000 is not at all a strong backing for her daughter.
