Chapter 12: Aunt Chef of the State-run Hotel
"Sister, I heard that Qiu'er is back, is it true?"
When the meal was almost finished, I heard the voice of the aunt outside the door from a distance, and before the family could respond, the aunt had already taken the lead in coming in: "Qiu'er, you are really back, oops, I miss my aunt." β
"Auntie, I miss you too." Lu Jingqiu put down her chopsticks and got up, hurriedly threw herself into her aunt's arms, and saw her uncle-in-law Yang Pinggui following behind her, so she hurriedly called sweetly: "Uncle." β
Yang Pinggui smiled and nodded: "It's time to come back and see, I've lost weight." β
When she came back, everyone said that she was thin and dark, which is also true, it doesn't matter, she came back to raise her for more than ten days, and the squeamish and fair-skinned little girl before came back.
As soon as the aunt and her husband came, the house was a little more lively, and the aunt was the same as her parents, for fear that she would not be full, so she kept adding dishes to her: "Tomorrow my aunt will make you a bowl of lion heads, and Chef Zhang of our hotel will have a unique skill in making lion heads." β
"Auntie, is there a chef in your restaurant again?"
"No, the restaurant business is good, it's hiring, and in addition to me, we have two chefs in the back kitchen."
"I want to eat the braised pork made by my aunt."
"No problem, my aunt will make it for you."
"Auntie, didn't my cousin come back?"
"Your eldest cousin came back from visiting relatives some time ago, and he has been thinking about you for a few days, you missed it, your second cousin's transport team is busy during this time, and you will be able to see that kid in a few days."
"I miss my cousin too, and when the second cousin is free that day, we will go to see the eldest cousin together."
"Your eldest cousin is so far away, you have a month's vacation, and it takes seven or eight days to come and go, and you still rest and rest at home honestly."
Zhou Lanping explained with a smile to his sister: "Lan Qin, Qiu'er said that she wanted to return to the city and was coming back, Pinggui and you two have been helping to pay attention to work recently." β
When Yang Pinggui and Zhou Lanqin heard this, they were all stunned, and their niece chased them to the countryside for the sake of Gao Shu in the courtyard, and they originally thought that she would not be able to stand it when she got there, so she came back in a hurry, but she didn't shout tired for two years.
This time they suddenly wanted to return to the city, and both of them were very surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Why did you come back suddenly, did Qiu'er let you be wronged over there?" Or did you have a conflict with the educated youth over there? β
Lu Jingqiu shook his head, didn't want them to worry, and told the truth: "I got along well with my comrades over there, and I also made two good friends, and I came back because I had something to do with Gao Shu." β
Zhou Lanping didn't dare to ask more questions just now, for fear that his daughter was because of Gao Shu again, but now that he looks, it's really: "I just thought that it couldn't be okay to come back suddenly, what's wrong with him?" β
"Mom, no one bullied me, it was Gao Shu who had a target over there, I think, everyone is about to get married, I'm entangled in something, although I like him, but there is also a bottom line, after so many years, if he really likes me a little bit, he won't get along with others, so, I want to open it, I want to come back."
"It's good to come back, it's not just the lonely boy of the Gao family in this world, and there are many people in our compound who are better than him.
His family situation is complicated, and we all feel that he is not suitable for you. You were a fool before, you didn't listen to any persuasion, you had to hit the south wall once. β
Yang Pinggui pulled his daughter-in-law on the side: "It's all over, don't blame her if Qiu'er wants to open it, it's good to be willing to come back, it's easy to say about work, Qiu'er, don't pick now, as long as you can accept it, let's come back first, what kind of work do you want in the future, what kind of work do you like, we are slowly meeting." β
Zhou Lanqin echoed: "Your uncle-in-law is right, let's come back first." β
Lu Xianrun said: "A few days ago, I heard that the art troupe was short of people, and tomorrow I will ask Lao Sang." β
Yang Pinggui shook his head: "Brother-in-law forgot, last week, the old Xu family on the other side had two quarrels with Zhang Shun in front of him because of the position of the art troupe. β
Lu Xianrun said: "I forgot about this, the art troupe can't do it, and it's okay to go to logistics." β
Yang Pinggui said: "I'll go to the Propaganda Department tomorrow to ask." β
As soon as she came back, her family was worried about her affairs, Lu Jingqiu's heart was warm, and she knew what she wanted to do, and she didn't want them to work in vain, so she said: "Dad, uncle, I have liked to paint since I was a child, and I was a painter in the propaganda department of our school when I was in high school, so I want to find a job related to painting." β
Zhou Lanqin said worriedly: "This job is not easy to find. β
Zhou Lanping said: "It doesn't matter, within a month, let's ask which unit is short of people." Your uncle-in-law is right, now look for a unit that can accept it, and the job you like is slowly coming. β
Lu Jingqiu nodded in response: "Hmm." β
Zhou Lanqin and Yang Pinggui asked a lot about her situation in Shili Village.
She picked it up and said it, as for the tiredness she experienced, it couldn't be expressed in words.
Knowing that she had been on the train for a few days, she didn't stay long.
Zhou Lanping sent away her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, asked her husband to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and accompanied her daughter upstairs to rest.
There are two rooms on the second floor, the most sunny is her bedroom, what she looked like when she left, what she still looked like when she came back, and the things in the room barely moved.
It was the bed sheets, and my mother changed her to the colors she liked, and got her a new mosquito net.
"Qiu'er, you told your mother, is it really what you said, that you are dead to Gao Shu?"
Lu Jingqiu held her mother's arm and repeatedly promised: "Mom, I hit the south wall, and my head was bleeding, and the injured child naturally wants to come back to find my mother, Mom." β
Zhou Lanping looked at her coquettish daughter, and her heart softened a lot: "Alas, it doesn't seem stupid to know that I came back to find my mother." β
Lu Jingqiu smiled coquettishly and coquettishly: "Your daughter is a nymphomaniac, but not a fool." β
Zhou Lanping said: "Look at making yourself black and thin, see if you will be a nymphomaniac in the future." β
"I'm definitely not going to do it again in the future, Mom, I want to sleep with you."
"Okay, mom will accompany you."
Zhou Lanping slept outside, and took out a pu fan out of nowhere, and helped her daughter fan it for a while.
Lu Jingqiu was not too hot, and snuggled up to Zhou Lanping, very attached.
"I heard that the department store sells very cool blowers this year, so ask your dad to buy one for you tomorrow."
Lu Jingqiu shook his head: "Don't, I've heard about that thing, it's quite expensive." β
The daughter now knows how to save money, and said with a smile: "How expensive can it be?" Your father's wages and I are all reserved for you to spend. β
"Mom, keep the money for me to buy a house, I still like houses." Lu Jingqiu smiled, she knew how expensive the house in Xicheng would be in the future.
Zhou Lanping doted on the tip of her nose, thinking that her daughter was saving money for them intimately, and said with a smile: "What is the house so nervous now, do you say you will buy it?" β
Lu Jingqiu smiled silently, and she didn't argue, she wanted her mother to see what happened in the future, and she didn't know if it could be realized in this life.
"Mom, are you doing well lately, are you busy at the hospital?"
"The patients who come and go in the hospital every day, just like that, Mom, are in good health."
"Do you feel a stomachache or something?"
"My Qiu'er has been out for two years, not only has she become intimate, but also filial, knowing that she cares about her parents' health, and her mother is so happy."
"Mom, my daughter is your little padded jacket, and it will get warmer and warmer in the future."
"It's like honey on your mouth."
"Mom, I've learned a lot of things over there, especially dealing with people, I found that I was really squeamish and naΓ―ve before, and it's easy to offend people when I say it."
"It's all your parents who are used to you, and your father and I are also responsible."
"Mom, I was young at the time, I had experienced very little, and I was protected by you too well, it's not a bad thing to go out for two years, I have grown a lot in the past two years, and I am no longer a little girl who doesn't understand anything."
