Chapter 1415 - Ruan Xiaoqing's concealment

While Yuan Zhou went upstairs to wash up and change his clothes before preparing the ingredients for dinner, there was another person who had also been running around outside for the whole afternoon.

This person was none other than ruan Xiaoqing. The story had to start from when ruan Xiaoqing left Yuan Zhou’s restaurant after lunch.

Ruan Xiaoqing, who had just finished saying goodbye to Ling Hong, received a phone call when she walked out of the intersection of Taoxi road.

The call was from her mother.

“How’s Xiao Qing recently? she said she had a cold last time. Is she better now?” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother’s voice was gentle. As soon as she picked up the phone, she began to nag at ruan Xiaoqing.

As ruan Xiaoqing walked back, she said to the other end of the phone with a gentle expression,””I’m fine. I’ve recovered from my cold and work is going well. ”

“That’s good. Let’s see when you’ll be back. It’s almost the new year. ” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother muttered.

“I won’t be back this year. You know that I’ll be even busier at work during the new year.” Ruan Xiaoqing paused for a moment and then said in a natural tone.

“You’re not coming back? Your brother’s son is all grown up now and can call his grandma. Aren’t you going to come back and see him?” The old man’s tone was filled with regret and anticipation.

“My little nephew is already so old? Would you call me aunt?” Ruan Xiaoqing pretended not to notice her regret and said happily.

“Yes, I’ve already taught you that. You’ll call me Auntie. You didn’t come back last year, so of course you didn’t hear it.” The old man said with great interest.

“That’s because mom is a good teacher. ” Ruan Xiaoqing smiled and flattered him.

“Of course. Your father and I taught you and your brother.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother said proudly.

“Yes, it’s all thanks to you two. How’s mom living at brother’s place?” Ruan Xiaoqing asked with concern.

“I’m fine, I’m fine. Your sister-in-law and brother are both very filial. Besides, I still have my daughter’s pocket money. I’m fine.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother was full of praises for ruan Xiaoqing.

That’s right, ruan Xiaoqing had long since saved a sum of money that would be automatically transferred to her mother’s card every month. That money was enough to be transferred for three years, and it was enough for any emergency.

Ruan Xiaoqing held her phone and listened quietly. She listened to her mother talk about family matters and what language her little nephew had learned. Of course, most of it was about her concern for her.

As she listened, ruan Xiaoqing’s mind wandered, and her eyes became a little wet. Ruan Xiaoqing opened her mouth several times, but in the end, she didn’t say anything and just listened to her mother’s words.

“By the way, I called you today because your uncle has a favor to ask of you.” After nagging for more than half an hour, ruan Xiaoqing was lying on the sofa when she got home. Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother then told her the reason for her call.

“What’s the matter, uncle?” Ruan Xiaoqing asked curiously.

“Isn’t your uncle planning to buy a house for your good-for-nothing cousin so that he can settle down and find a girlfriend to get married?” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother sighed a little, but she still said it seriously.

“Yes, and then?” Ruan Xiaoqing asked.

“No, your uncle has his own down payment.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother shook her head.

“What’s that?” Ruan Xiaoqing asked.

“I told your uncle where you’re staying last time, and your uncle recently saw an advertisement saying that there’s a property in your area that’s good and appreciate quickly. Now that it’s just opened for sale, he can buy a house in a good location, so he wants you to help him look for a house.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother said in detail.

“Uncle, you’re here?” Ruan Xiaoqing asked.

“Yes, he said he arrived yesterday.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother said.

“Which District does he want to buy? what’s the name of the place?” Ruan Xiaoqing recalled the recent overwhelming advertisements for the food City.

“That Food City that integrated commercial and residential areas or something?” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother repeated every word.

“Alright, I got it.” Ruan Xiaoqing replied.

“Alright, I’ll tell your uncle. But don’t tire yourself out. You’re already working hard.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother instructed.

“It’s rare for uncle to look for me. I’ll definitely help, but I can only bring him to look at the houses. I don’t know much about the houses there.” Ruan Xiaoqing said.

“It’s not bad to take him there. Your uncle is unfamiliar with the people and the place there. You’re only responsible for leading the way.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother said.

“Alright,” he said. Ruan Xiaoqing nodded.

“That’s enough. Take care of your health. Don’t think that just because you’re young, you’re always staying up late and not eating. You can’t do this.” After ruan Xiaoqing’s mother finished her business, she started nagging again.

However, ruan Xiaoqing enjoyed listening to him and even responded from time to time, indicating that she was listening very seriously.

In the end, the phone call was passed to ruan Xiaoqing’s father. The father and daughter talked for a very short time. Basically, ruan Xiaoqing’s father asked about his work, life, and health before hanging up.

At this time, ruan Xiaoqing, who was holding the phone, showed a rare fragile expression. She held the phone and said softly,””I’m sorry, Mom and dad. ”

On the other side, ruan Xiaoqing’s mother was complaining about her father.””You hung up in less than a minute. Why didn’t you ask about your daughter’s condition?”

“You’ve already asked what you should. What else do you have to say? the child will fly away and walk his own path. You’ll only be a burden to the child if you keep asking.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s father, who was wearing a well-ironed old suit, said very seriously.

“Go, go, go. Only you can do it. I think our daughter didn’t come back because you’re so rigid.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother said in an unpleasant tone.

“That’s impossible. Little Qing is busy. Being an actuary isn’t an easy job.” Ruan Xiaoqing’s father said firmly.

“You don’t miss your daughter?” Ruan Xiaoqing’s mother sneered.

“We can go and see her after the new year. It’s not far away anyway. Didn’t you say that you wanted to give Xiao Qing the fermented bean curd you made?” When ruan Xiaoqing’s father made the decision, he also pushed the blame to ruan Xiaoqing’s mother.

As the two old people argued, ruan Xiaoqing composed herself and called her uncle.

Ruan Xiaoqing’s uncle’s surname was ding, and his first name was Fang. He was just an ordinary construction worker. Because his son had failed to live up to expectations, he was still working hard at the construction site. It was a big decision for him to be able to make it in time to see the house.

After all, the work at the construction site did not wait for anyone. A day’s delay would mean a day’s salary.

Therefore, when ruan Xiaoqing received her, her uncle was dressed in ordinary and clean clothes, but his old face showed an embarrassed look.””I’m really sorry to trouble you, little Qing. I plan to make a decision in the next few days. ”

“Xiao Qing, when are you free? can you show me the house?” Ding Fang asked, rubbing his hands in embarrassment.

“Uncle, you don’t have to be so polite. I’ll Take You There now.” Ruan Xiaoqing, who had already changed into a light tracksuit and sports shoes, said with a smile.

“That’s good, that’s good. I’ll have to trouble you then, Qing.” Ding Fang said, a look of pleasant surprise on his face.

“It’s no trouble at all. But uncle, you have good taste. The value of the estate there will indeed rise.” Thinking of Yuan Zhou’s craftsmanship and the increasingly prosperous surroundings of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, ruan Xiaoqing said affirmatively.
