Chapter 628: Sending Charcoal in the Snow (1st Shift)
Chapter 628: Sending Charcoal in the Snow (1st Shift)
"Cui Niang, the clothes and shoes are all worn by me, some old, don't mind, dress them first, don't freeze and be pretty!" Xia Qiqi Dao.
Su Cuiniang was stunned, she didn't expect that Xia Qiqi led herself and Qiaoqiao into the house to find clothes and shoes for Qiaoqiao.
However, she had already taken advantage of Qiqi before, so why was she embarrassed to ask for this clothes and shoes again.
"Qiqi, I ......" Su Cuiniang opened her mouth, ready to refuse, but Jiang Qiaoqiao beside her stared at the embroidered shoes in Xia Qiqi's hand.
Jiang Qiaoqiao had a hard time in the Jiang family, and she wore straw sandals all year round, and she had not yet worn such thick, embroidered cotton shoes with small flowers.
In his eyes, Deng Shi revealed an incomparable desire, but he was afraid that his mother Su Cuiniang would be difficult to do, so he had to try to suppress the love in his heart.
Xia Qiqi's eyes just fell on Jiang Qiaoqiao, knowing the little girl's thoughts, she said to Su Cuiniang: "Sister Cuiniang, the priorities are urgent, and you wear less quietly, it's cold this day, it's easy to freeze sick, and then things will be more serious, not to mention, a cotton coat and a pair of embroidered shoes are not anything worth a thousand gold, you will work in my roast duck shop in the future, and you are afraid that you will not be able to repay the favor?" ”
Su Cuiniang was still very hesitant before, but after listening to Xia Qiqi's words, she figured it out.
In addition, her daughter seems to like it a lot, but she is still reluctant to disappoint her daughter, she nodded: "Qiaoqiao, you can take the shoes and clothes, the weather is cold, and if you wear warm clothes, you won't get sick." The two of us will work hard to help Qiqi earn money in the future and repay her for her kindness to the two of us! ”
Su Cuiniang has been doing business at the town dock for so many years, and she can be regarded as having seen the world.
Right now, Xia Qiqi's behavior can be regarded as a charcoal in the snow, and it can be regarded as saving her and Qiaoqiao's lives.
No matter what happens, she will do her best in the future to help Qiqi do her best in the shop!
Jiang Qiaoqiao held her cotton shoes and hugged them tightly in her arms, like a child who had received candy, so happy that she was even reluctant to wear them.
Xia Qiqi was afraid that the child would freeze, so she urged her to change into cotton shoes, and her feet were finally not cold.
When I put on the old cotton clothes again, my body suddenly warmed up.
"You wait for me, I'll go get you a basin of hot water, wash your face, and go out to eat!" Xia Qiqi Dao.
"No, I'll do it myself! Qiqi, you can introduce me directly to everyone, I want to start working tomorrow. Su Cui Niang said.
"Good!"
Xia Qiqi led Su Cuiniang and led Jiang Qiaoqiao to the back kitchen.
At this time, Yu Fu didn't roast the duck, he was cleaning up the roast duck oven, the weather was cold, but as soon as he got close to the roast duck oven, it was warm.
"Fifth uncle, come over here." Xia Qiqi beckoned to Yu Fu.
Yu Fu walked over, unlike Huang Erniu, he had never seen Su Cuiniang, so he looked at Xia Qiqi with a little curiosity in his eyes.
Xia Qiqi introduced: "This is Su Cui Niang, no accident, she is the cook of our shop, Cui Niang's buns and pastries, she is very good, and she used to set up a stall with me at the dock!" ”
"This is my fifth uncle, and in the future, the roast duck from this roast duck shop will basically be handed over to him to make. The rest of the people, you should know, the guys outside, one is called Huang Erniu, the other is called Dafa, He Dafa. There is also a general Jiang Yan who is in charge, she didn't come today, she is my second aunt. Then there are some relatives who come to help temporarily, and the wages are calculated according to the day they come. ”
Xia Qiqi is clearly calculated with everyone in terms of wages.
Even if her father comes, he will give money to do a day's work.
However, those who come for one or two days are short-term workers, and the wages are naturally less than those of the regular employees in the roast duck shop, and everyone has no opinion on this.
Su Cuiniang is several years older than Yu Fu, Xia Qiqi was called Sister Su Cuiniang before, but now she can't be called like that, otherwise the seniority will be messed up.
In the end, the result agreed upon by everyone was that Xia Qiqi called Su Cuiniang's name, Yu Fu called Su Cuiniang Sister Su, and Jiang Qiaoqiao still called Sister Xia Qiqi.
Xia Qiqi called Huang Erniu and He Dafa, and everyone went to Chen Ji, the largest restaurant on this street, to eat, all of them were from this street, everyone knew each other, and Chen Ji's shopkeeper gave Xia Qiqi a good discount.
For this meal, Xia Qiqi ordered several hard dishes, the purpose of which was naturally to let everyone know each other.
It took a while to eat and drink, and in the end, everyone was able to talk and laugh.
After dinner, Xia Qiqi led Su Cuiniang and Jiang Qiaoqiao to the house she bought in the town.
She bought a house, and so far, except for Lu Jiu, no one else knows.
Even her father and mother didn't say it, and correspondingly, they only said that they were rented from Su Cuiniang Xia Qiqi.
Su Cuiniang always thought that the house rented by Xia Qiqi would not be too big, just like the land she rented in the town, just a place to put a bed, and it was difficult to turn around, but looking at the courtyard where Xia Qiqi entered the house, Su Cuiniang was dumbfounded.
"Qiqi, why did you rent such a big house? Got a lot of money, right? Su Cuiniang asked in surprise.
Xia Qiqi explained according to the rhetoric he had thought out a long time ago: "The house is indeed not cheap, but the family wants to go to the county seat to live permanently, so they give a lot of discounts, and the price of the yard is not much different from that of the first entry." ”
Although she explained so, Su Cuiniang still felt that she was burning money, and even proposed to let Xia Qiqi change the house and find a small one.
"Qiqi, you don't actually need to find a house with a yard, a small one, a courtyard one, it's good, save money!"
"It's okay, there are a lot of people in the family, if they all come to town, they don't even have a place to live, it's good now!" Xia Qiqi Dao.
Su Cuiniang saw that Xia Qiqi was resolute, and it was not easy to persuade again.
Xia Qiqi arranged a room in the backyard for Su Cuiniang, and went to the kitchen to boil water for the bath.
Su Cuiniang is a diligent person, she cleaned her room and cleaned up a few rooms nearby.
Looking at the empty room, she felt distressed.
Such a good house, if you sublet it out, you will have a lot of income every month.
But after thinking about it, she won't say anything again, after all, Qiqi's attitude is there, and she has to respect Qiqi.
After the room was cleaned up, Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at the clean room and the thick quilt, and always felt like she was in a dream.
"Mother, is this really where we live?" Jiang Qiaoqiao asked in a low voice.
Su Cuiniang nodded, "Yes for the time being, as for how long I can stay, my mother can't guarantee it." ”
"Qiaoqiao, you tell your mother the truth, do you regret leaving there with your mother?" Su Cuiniang asked.
There were some things she wanted to understand.
I don't want to keep it in my heart, the life of her and her daughter is sad enough, and there must be no more estrangement.
Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't hesitate for a moment, "No regrets!" ”
