Chapter 1415: Ruan Xiaoqings 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 Zhous 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.

Hows Xiao Qing recently? she said she had a cold last time. Is she better now? Ruan Xiaoqings mothers 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,Im fine. Ive recovered from my cold and work is going well.

Thats good. Lets see when youll be back. Its almost the new year. Ruan Xiaoqings mother muttered.

I wont be back this year. You know that Ill be even busier at work during the new year. Ruan Xiaoqing paused for a moment and then said in a natural tone.

Youre not coming back? Your brothers son is all grown up now and can call his grandma. Arent you going to come back and see him? The old mans tone was filled with regret and antic.i.p.ation.

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

Yes, Ive already taught you that. Youll call me Auntie. You didnt come back last year, so of course you didnt hear it. The old man said with great interest.

Thats because mom is a good teacher. Ruan Xiaoqing smiled and flattered him.

Of course. Your father and I taught you and your brother. Ruan Xiaoqings mother said proudly.

Yes, its all thanks to you two. Hows mom living at brothers place? Ruan Xiaoqing asked with concern.

Im fine, Im fine. Your sister-in-law and brother are both very filial. Besides, I still have my daughters pocket money. Im fine. Ruan Xiaoqings mother was full of praises for ruan Xiaoqing.

Thats right, ruan Xiaoqing had long since saved a sum of money that would be automatically transferred to her mothers 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 Xiaoqings mind wandered, and her eyes became a little wet. Ruan Xiaoqing opened her mouth several times, but in the end, she didnt say anything and just listened to her mothers 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 Xiaoqings mother then told her the reason for her call.

Whats the matter, uncle? Ruan Xiaoqing asked curiously.

Isnt 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 Xiaoqings 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 Xiaoqings mother shook her head.

Whats that? Ruan Xiaoqing asked.

I told your uncle where youre staying last time, and your uncle recently saw an advertis.e.m.e.nt saying that theres a property in your area thats good and appreciate quickly. Now that its 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 Xiaoqings mother said in detail.

Uncle, youre here? Ruan Xiaoqing asked.

Yes, he said he arrived yesterday. Ruan Xiaoqings mother said.

Which District does he want to buy? whats the name of the place? Ruan Xiaoqing recalled the recent overwhelming advertis.e.m.e.nts for the food City.

That Food City that integrated commercial and residential areas or something? Ruan Xiaoqings mother repeated every word.

Alright, I got it. Ruan Xiaoqing replied.

Alright, Ill tell your uncle. But dont tire yourself out. Youre already working hard. Ruan Xiaoqings mother instructed.

Its rare for uncle to look for me. Ill definitely help, but I can only bring him to look at the houses. I dont know much about the houses there. Ruan Xiaoqing said.

Its not bad to take him there. Your uncle is unfamiliar with the people and the place there. Youre only responsible for leading the way. Ruan Xiaoqings mother said.

Alright, he said. Ruan Xiaoqing nodded.

Thats enough. Take care of your health. Dont think that just because youre young, youre always staying up late and not eating. You cant do this. After ruan Xiaoqings 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 pa.s.sed to ruan Xiaoqings father. The father and daughter talked for a very short time. Basically, ruan Xiaoqings 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,Im sorry, Mom and dad.

On the other side, ruan Xiaoqings mother was complaining about her father.You hung up in less than a minute. Why didnt you ask about your daughters condition?

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

Go, go, go. Only you can do it. I think our daughter didnt come back because youre so rigid. Ruan Xiaoqings mother said in an unpleasant tone.

Thats impossible. Little Qing is busy. Being an actuary isnt an easy job. Ruan Xiaoqings father said firmly.

You dont miss your daughter? Ruan Xiaoqings mother sneered.

We can go and see her after the new year. Its not far away anyway. Didnt you say that you wanted to give Xiao Qing the fermented bean curd you made? When ruan Xiaoqings father made the decision, he also pushed the blame to ruan Xiaoqings mother.

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

Ruan Xiaoqings uncles 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 days delay would mean a days salary.

Therefore, when ruan Xiaoqing received her, her uncle was dressed in ordinary and clean clothes, but his old face showed an embarra.s.sed look.Im 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 embarra.s.sment.

Uncle, you dont have to be so polite. Ill Take You There now. Ruan Xiaoqing, who had already changed into a light tracksuit and sports shoes, said with a smile.

Thats good, thats good. Ill have to trouble you then, Qing. Ding Fang said, a look of pleasant surprise on his face.

Its no trouble at all. But uncle, you have good taste. The value of the estate there will indeed rise. Thinking of Yuan Zhous craftsmans.h.i.+p and the increasingly prosperous surroundings of Yuan Zhous restaurant, ruan Xiaoqing said affirmatively.
