Chapter 70: It's too much of a waste
As the sun set, Gu Yi walked into the west gate of the shipyard with brisk steps and whistling.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived downstairs on the first floor of Linjiang, I saw my nephew squatting on the steps, holding his chin and seeming to be in a daze.
"Huzi?" Gu Yi stepped forward suspiciously and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
Xiaohuzi blinked tiredly: "I'm waiting for my mother." ”
Gu Yi: "Huh? He asked, "Didn't your mother have no classes in the afternoon?" Are you out of school? Who's going to pick you up? ”
"Mom." Xiaohuzi replied lazily, twisted his fat body, and pointed his little finger to a pile of things in the stairwell, "Mom moved things upstairs, let me stay here and wait." ”
Gu Yi took a closer look, and through the sunset outside, he found that there were a few rattan chairs and a wooden table, and there were a few cute little Mazha in the corner.
"Huzi, this is what your mother bought it?"
"Uh-huh." The little one rubbed his little belly and replied, "Mom took a chair and went up." Uncle, I'm hungry. I really want to eat baked buns! ”
Gu Yi hurriedly ran into the stairwell and shouted, "Don't sit." You go upstairs, these uncles can move. ”
When Xiaohuzi heard this, he finally came to his senses, and jumped upstairs.
Gu Yi was strong and strong, bent down slightly to put the wooden table on his thick back, and easily walked up the steps step by step.
The east-facing door on the third floor was open, and Chen Xingling was about to go downstairs in a hurry, when she found that her son had already run up, and Gu Yi was following behind with the wooden table she had pulled out of the space.
She laughed happily and shouted, "Ah! You're back just in time! I'm worried about when and when I'm going to move! ”
In the past two days, she has to move a lot of supplies from the supermarket space to move her new empty home.
Fortunately, Gu Yi is a very rough boy, he is not old and not delicate enough, so he blindly thinks that she bought it from outside.
Everything else was small, and her thin arms could do the job. But today they were all big objects, either wooden tables or a large number of rattan chairs, and it was by no means something that she, a frail woman, could carry back from outside and go directly to the third floor.
In the afternoon, she sent the certificate of the personnel department to the kindergarten, and quietly peeked at her son at the entrance of the kindergarten, and found that Xiaohuzi was happily playing eagle and chicken with a group of brothers and sisters, and there was no negative emotion of being restrained or uncomfortable and depressed.
So, she went home with peace of mind and took her textbooks into the space.
I washed my hair, put on my mask, listened to soft classical music, and read the text slowly.
It wasn't until she easily solved the first few units of the text that she went to the family lounge to find a dining table that could match the rattan chair, and after searching for more than half an hour, she finally found this brown square table with a pure wood mortise and tenon structure.
The color matches the rattan chair, and the height is also very suitable, although the raw materials are different, but now the family urgently needs a set of dining tables to eat, and it really can't continue to squeeze on the wooden sofa in the living room, so I can only choose it in the end.
In order not to make Gu Yi suspicious, she had to quietly go downstairs and drag them out and put them in the stairwell.
The advantage of living in the factory is that there are people from the same unit all around, more or less acquaintances, petty theft may occur, but there is no need to worry about a large object like this.
Then she washed rice and boiled porridge in the space, turned around and went straight to Director Guo's office.
When the secretary saw her coming again, he said with a calm face that the factory director was not there, and then he went to take care of himself.
Chen Xingling ate the closed door again, but he was not annoyed, he didn't want the secretary to catch up with him, so he quietly walked to the staircase and waited patiently.
After waiting for more than 20 minutes, the factory director still did not come back.
Just as she was hesitating whether to continue waiting, the factory director's driver hurriedly ran up from downstairs.
The driver had picked her up before, and he was very impressed by her, and because of Gu Qi's relationship, he was very polite and enthusiastic to her, and hurriedly took the initiative to greet her.
The driver then explained that the factory director had something to do at home this afternoon and did not come to work.
Chen Xingling had no choice but to go back in disappointment, ran to the kindergarten gate to pick up his son from school, and asked him to wait for Gu Yi at the staircase, while he moved a rattan chair upstairs first, and was just about to go down to move the little maza.
Gu Yi raised his head and smiled, and then buried his head again.
"Sister-in-law, just call me to do such heavy work in the future! This wooden table doesn't look big but it's very heavy, and you definitely can't carry it as a woman. ”
Chen Xingling let Xiaohuzi enter the house and shouted, "Okay, I'll leave the big one to you, and I'll move a few small horses." ”
While speaking, Gu Yi had already walked quickly to the door, turned sideways and touched it, and then cautiously came in with the wooden table on his back.
"Sister-in-law, this wooden table doesn't look painted. Y-why don't you like lacquered furniture? ”
Chen Xingling helped him remove the wooden table and explained: "I don't like the smell of paint. I heard that the smell is not good for children, although I don't know if it's true or not, but if you can't paint it, don't paint it, and use it with confidence. ”
"That's that!" Gu Yi set up the wooden table and took the initiative to ask, "Sister-in-law, is this position okay?" Is it over in the living room? ”
Chen Xingling reminded: "Move in the direction of the kitchen again, don't be in the middle of the living room." The living room is for entertaining guests, and the wooden sofa must be placed in the center. ”
Next, Gu Yi moved a few rattan chairs up, while Chen Xingling hugged a few small horses and quickly emptied the stairwell.
Soon, the table was finally settled!
Gu Yi drank water while looking intently at the new dining table.
"Sister-in-law, where did you buy these? It looks good-looking, the style is very special, and it gives people a very fashionable and novel feeling. ”
Chen Xingling looked sloppy and replied: "There is a small rattan factory in the south of the city, the scale is not large, but all kinds of furniture can be bought there. If you want to buy, you have to pick carefully, and you must know how to match. I picked and came all afternoon, and I spent a lot of money. ”
That was the end of the conversation, and she turned and walked into the kitchen.
"You're all hungry, aren't you? Wait, I'll simply make two dishes to eat with porridge. ”
Xiaohuzi ran over and asked pitifully, "Mom, can I eat roast chicken?" I'm so hungry! ”
He had been playing wildly in kindergarten for an afternoon, and his stomach was already hungry.
Chen Xingling's eyes moved slightly, and he smiled: "Mom has already arranged it." You did a great job in kindergarten today and you have to be rewarded a little bit. Wait, I'll go to my room and take it out. ”
Xiaohuzi followed her to the room curiously, but was kicked out by her mother.
After a while, Chen Xingling came out with half a roast chicken.
Xiaohuzi's eyes lit up, "Ahhh
Chen Xingling doted and chuckled: "Wait for my uncle to tear the chicken, and my mother will go to the kitchen to make some cold kelp." Let's have porridge with chicken and kelp tonight. ”
Gu Yi looked at the brand-new dining table, and swallowed his saliva when he smelled the fragrant roast chicken, and stopped a little hesitantly.
Chen Xingling didn't see it, and walked quickly into the kitchen to serve rice porridge and kelp.
The dinner was hearty and delicious, and all three of them were well fed.
Gu Yi helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and finally said something after hesitating for a long time.
"Sister-in-law, you just moved here, you want to buy furniture and bedding to settle down, everything costs money, and you eat meat every day...... In fact, I am my own family, sister-in-law, you don't have to spend money to buy meat every day to entertain me. There is a little meat in the canteen at noon, and it is not good to eat roast chicken for dinner...... It's a lot of money, really. ”
