Chapter 191: A Special Gift
Shen Kang looked at her in embarrassment and did not speak.
Lin Xi understood: "There are rules, you can't disclose it, right?" ”
Shen Kang walked up to her and suddenly took out something from his pocket: "Here." ”
"What?" Lin Xi took it in his hand and opened the handkerchief wrapped outside, and there was a golden gold ring lying inside.
There is no pattern in the somen noodles, but the portion is not small.
Lin Xi put the ring on his ring finger, which was slightly loose, and looked particularly like a nouveau riche landlord's wife.
"You aesthetic ......" looked at the light, and the ring seemed to be still shining gold.
If you dislike it, you are about to say it, and when she turns her tongue, Lin Xi still praises: "Your aesthetic is really special." ”
"I saw that Li Changlin's kid had one in his hand, and he thought it was pretty good-looking, but he wore a big blessing character and looked like a nouveau riche, so I asked him to help me get one, and I deliberately didn't get those bells and whistles."
Shen Kang said and didn't forget to take her hand and praised: "Tsk, my daughter-in-law's little white hand looks so good to wear." ”
Lin Xi couldn't help but smile and said seriously: "Don't look at who bought it for me, my husband's vision is naturally excellent." ”
Shen Kang put one hand around her shoulder, leaned into her ear and whispered a few words, Lin Xi couldn't help but glance at him, but he still nodded in his expectant gaze.
"But we have to make three chapters of the law, and we can't go crazy and ignore it, in case the child wakes me up and I don't finish with you."
Seeing that she was relieved, Shen Kangba kissed her daughter, and then happily walked outside with the child in her arms: "I'm going to put a few little ancestors to sleep." ”
……
A few days after Shen Kang left, Mrs. Shen accidentally fell when she got up to go to the toilet one night.
Lin Xi sent the person to the hospital overnight. After diagnosis, it was determined that it was a contusion, and although the condition was not serious, it still required home recuperation.
By the time she took Mrs. Shen home, it was already late at night, and the lights at home were on.
Helping the old lady into the house, the crying of the three children had already resounded, Shen Xiaobai was even more crying and wanted to turn her back, and her mother-in-law Wang Xiuqin was in a hurry, anxious and distressed.
Shen Xiaofei, who was asleep, was awakened, but he did not complain, but stood next to the crib and patiently helped his grandmother take care of his younger brothers.
"You're back, how's your milk?"
"A plaster was prescribed, and the doctor said that it would be fine to recuperate at home for ten days and half a month." After Lin Xi finished speaking, she helped Mrs. Shen back to the house, and soon came out of the room again, and asked Shen Xiaofei to go to sleep first, so she picked up a child and coaxed her.
It's just that today's three children seem to be particularly difficult to coax, so they coaxed one to sleep and picked up the other, and the other woke up again, closed his eyes and cried.
One cried, and the other two were also awakened and cried, Lin Xi and her mother-in-law could only keep hugging and coaxing.
It wasn't until it was all bright and the three cubs were probably tired of crying, that they finally gave up and let go of their exhausted mother and grandmother.
There were two classes today, and there was a project she was responsible for at the end of the design institute to be handed over, so Lin Xi only squinted on the bed for a while, then hurriedly washed up and went to school.
As a result, she inevitably dozed off in class.
"Didn't sleep well yesterday?" Looking at her sleepy appearance, Zheng Xinyue couldn't help but ask.
"Don't mention it." Lin Xi yawned and briefly talked about last night's events.
"If you really can't do it, you can find someone to help take care of the children."
"You think I don't want to? I've seen two of them before, and I don't think they're good. Now my mother-in-law has sprained her foot again, and my mother-in-law is the only one left in the house, so anxious, I really don't know where to find the right person for a while, and I guess I can only make do with it first. ”
Shen Kang was a little better at home before, and he would also help take care of the children at night, so the pressure was not so great, and now it feels like everything is piled up all at once.
"I do know one, just downstairs in my house, the woman went back to the city with her husband, and her mother-in-law's family disliked her for being from the countryside and having no job, so life was not easy anyway. But the person is very good, there is a child in the family who is already in primary school, and there must be experience in taking care of children. ”
"As long as people have good character and do things quickly, their hands and feet are clean." In her current situation, how can she still be picky.
"I'll talk to her when I go back today, but I guess I won't be able to live at home."
Lin Xi smiled bitterly: "The current situation of my family is really unbearable." ”
There are only three rooms in total, and if it weren't for the proximity to go home after class to take care of the children, she would definitely have to move back to the courtyard.
Thinking of something, she couldn't help but quip: "When did you take care of this kind of idle business?" ”
"I looked down on her in-law's proposal for a long time, when the educated youth went to the countryside, the man fell in love with the village chief's daughter, and the family was not less stained. Now that I'm back in the city, I'm starting to dislike other people, women just want to be financially independent, and men don't dare to look down on us. ”
Zheng Xinyue was very efficient, and brought the woman to Lin Xi the next day.
The woman's name is Jin Qiu, and she is just thirty years old this year. After a brief understanding of the other party's situation, Lin Xi said: "Every morning from half past seven to five in the afternoon, the job is to take care of the children at home and have a meal at noon, and you can also eat at home." The salary is thirty yuan, which rises every six months, and the increase is five yuan. In addition, there are two days off every month, and a two-day trial period, if you feel that you can ......"
"Yes, I can!" Hearing that there was still a break, the woman nodded excitedly.
Her husband works in a factory, and her salary is only 45 yuan per month, as long as she is half a year, she can earn 35, and her mother-in-law always says that she eats white food, but she is obviously taking care of the children in the family, because she is from a rural area, she can only eat after cooking, and she has long had enough of such days.
If it weren't for the fear that her parents would be worried, she would really want to take the child back to her parents' house.
"I'll take you to the house first, and if you feel okay, you'll be on time for work tomorrow."
In this way, Lin Xi took Jin Qiu to the house.
Wang Xiuqin learned that the other party was a nanny hired by Lin Xi for money, and she had to pay a salary of thirty yuan every month, not to mention how distressed she was.
"The three little ones are quite sensible, and besides, isn't there still you, it's not easy to make money, so why spend that unjust money."
Jin Qiu was standing next to him, nervously tugging at the buttons of his clothes.
She has no education and no skills, so she only has this strength, and if the other party changes her mind, she really has no way out.
But she also knows in her heart that thirty yuan a month is not a small amount, and it is normal for people to be unhappy.
"No, it's okay, it's cheaper, I'm diligent, I used to take care of my younger brothers and sisters in my hometown."
Lin Xi signaled her not to worry, and then discussed with Wang Xiuqin: "Mom, you and your grandmother are old, the main thing is that I also feel sorry for you, I didn't let you enjoy happiness with us, I can't tire you down anymore, and when I go back, Dad sees that you have lost weight, then my sin will be great, and you don't have to worry about money, you can spend it and you can earn it back." I only have one mother-in-law. ”
The smile on Wang Xiuqin's face never stopped.
