Chapter 257 Cold and Icy
Yang Quanxiu had been watching Zhou Yi and Qin Shi the whole time, and when she heard Zhou Yi's words, she immediately smiled and said, "Hey!"
"Zhou Yi, it's been a long time since I've seen you. I heard you have a great job now and are making a lot of money."
Zhou Yi smiled and shook her head: "No, it's just ordinary work."
"where?"
"Don't be modest."
“I’ve heard it all from your third aunt. You’re a store manager now, very capable, and the boss values you highly.”
Hearing Yang Quanxiu's words, Zhou Yi smiled and said, "My boss is very good."
"The boss is very important, but bosses are not stupid. They will value you if you are capable."
"It means you're doing a good job, which is why your boss is good."
"Alright, alright, Zhou Yi and Qin Shi rarely come back, so let's not talk about this anymore."
Li Jiahong put her things down and immediately interrupted Yang Quanxiu. However, since the two were old acquaintances, Yang Quanxiu was not angry and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, Zhou Yi is also very tired, having to work and take care of Aunt Xu, so I won't say anything more."
"Zhou Yi, come visit Aunt Yang's house when you have time."
"Okay, Aunt Yang."
Zhou Yi obediently agreed.
Yang Quanxiu left happily.
Li Jiahong said, "Don't pay any attention to her. She just has nothing to do all day and goes from house to house."
As she spoke, Li Jiahong took Zhou Yi's hand and said to Qin Shi, "Qin Shi, please sit down. Your third aunt will pour you some tea."
Qin Shi hadn't said a word; he had been standing next to Zhou Yi, watching Zhou Yi talk to Li Jiahong and Yang Quanxiu.
Hearing Li Jiahong's words, he said, "Third Aunt, no need to rush."
"Yiyi and I will just sit for a while."
"What do you mean by 'sit for a while'?"
"I said I was going to eat." "Wait!"
"After your third aunt pours you tea, she'll go cook some of your favorite dishes!"
Before Qin Shi and Zhou Yi could answer, Li Jiahong went to make tea for them.
Zhou Yi and Li Jiahong were not outsiders. As Li Jiahong went to make tea, she followed, saying, "Third Aunt, don't bother. My brother and I came back just to see you and Third Uncle, and then we'll go to the house."
"See? I didn't tell you not to watch. If you do watch, just come eat at your third aunt's!"
Before Zhou Yi could answer, Li Jiahong said with a serious expression, "Let me tell you, if you don't stay for this meal, your third aunt will be angry."
Zhou Yi: "..." Zhou Yi knew Li Jiahong's temperament. If they didn't eat lunch here today, Auntie San might really be angry, but Yu Yu might wake up by noon.
She and her brother ate dinner and then went back; Yu Yu was afraid she would come looking for her.
So Zhou Yi told Li Jiahong that she had only been back for a short time and would have work later, and that if she ate dinner and went back, she might not make it in time.
Li Jiahong didn't believe her and said directly, "How can someone be busy without eating lunch?"
Unfortunately, Zhou Yi couldn't tell Li Jiahong about her work as a nanny, which left her with no other option.
But then Qin Shi said he really had something to do and would leave next time, promising to eat before leaving.
But Li Jiahong didn't believe it at all. Even if she did, she said that she would cook it sooner so that they could eat it sooner and go back home.
This left Qin Shi with no other option.
So Li Jiahong pushed the two of them out and said, "Hurry up and go home to check on things; I'll cook."
After saying that, she quickly went to the kitchen to get busy.
Zhou Yi and Qin Shi had no choice but to go home first.
My house and my third aunt's house are very close to each other, separated only by a mountain and a road.
Li Jiahong is on the west side, and Zhou Yijia is on the east side, back to back.
So it only takes a few minutes to get home.
The house is still the same old brick house, decades old and quite dilapidated.
However, it is very clean.
The ground was spotless, the floor inside the house was spotless, and even the tables, chairs, and benches were neatly arranged.
There was not a single mess.
Grandma was a clean person. No matter how poor the family's conditions were, it was always clean and tidy.
Therefore, Zhou Yi is an extremely clean person.
He took out his key, opened the door, and went inside.
As she stepped across the threshold, a wave of cold air hit her, and her eyes instantly stung and hurt from the heat.
Qin Shi stood beside her, watching her eyes redden in an instant, and held her slightly cool fingers tightly: "Don't worry, Grandma will come back healthy."
Zhou Yi nodded, her eyelashes fluttering rapidly as she blinked away the heat in her eyes.
"Brother, sit down for a while, I'll go boil some water to make you some tea."
This is her home, and her brother is a guest; she should entertain him.
Qin Shi said, "I'll go with you."
Hearing this, Zhou Yi smiled and said, "Okay."
The two went to the kitchen and lit a wood-fired stove.
During the Qin Dynasty, fires were lit and pots were washed by Zhou Yi, gradually bringing a sense of warmth and activity to the home.
No longer cold and impersonal.
Because they had promised to have lunch at Li Jiahong's house, Zhou Yi and Qin Shi looked around the house briefly, packed a few sets of Xu Fengzhen's clothes, and then went to the vegetable garden near the house to check the surveillance footage.
About an hour later, Li Jiahong called her and Qin Shi to have lunch together. The two of them went to Li Jiahong's place and had lunch together.
Zhou Jianping went to work and wouldn't be back for lunch, so it was just the three of them eating. But Li Jiahong still prepared a full table of dishes to entertain Zhou Yi and Qin Shi, urging them to eat more.
Zhou Yi ate a lot, and Qin Shi also ate quite a bit.
After the two finished lunch, Li Jiahong told them to hurry back to work, as she was not going to keep them any longer.
Even though Zhou Yi was already familiar with Li Jiahong's straightforwardness, a smile still graced her face.
"Third Aunt, please ask Third Uncle and me to take good care of the chickens, ducks, geese, and vegetables at Grandma's house."
As he spoke, Zhou Yi took out a sum of money from his bag and placed it in Li Jiahong's palm.
Li Jiahong immediately pushed the money back, angrily shouting, "What are you taking?!"
"You have so much money you don't know what to do with it?"
"Qin Shi already took it before. It's true that raising chickens, ducks and geese requires food. You wouldn't feel at ease if your third aunt didn't accept it."
"But Qin Shi has taken enough money; you are not allowed to take any more!"
Li Jiahong was truly furious, and her words were extremely harsh.
After saying that, he took the money from Zhou Yi's hand and stuffed it back into her canvas bag, then said to Qin Shi, "Qin Shi, you and Zhou Yi go back."
"Third Aunt, you don't need to worry about this. You go about your work and take care of your own things."
"Your other uncles and aunts will take good care of you."
Qin Shi said, "Thank you for your trouble, Third Aunt."
"Stop talking about this, go back now."
"Auntie is still not awake. You have a lot to do, so don't delay."
As Li Jiahong spoke, she pushed the two of them away. Zhou Yi knew that Auntie San would never accept the money, so he could only say, "Auntie San, my brother and I are going back. Call me anytime if you need anything."
"I know."
Li Jiahong dropped the two off at the main road. Qin Shi had called for the car earlier, and it stopped as soon as they reached the roadside.
Zhou Yi and Qin Shi got into the car.
Li Jiahong stood outside, watching the two get into the car.
Zhou Yi rolled down the car window and waved to Li Jiahong, who smiled and said, "Work hard."
"Okay, Third Aunt."
The car quickly drove forward.
Zhou Yi sat in the car, turning her head to watch Li Jiahong's figure disappear behind her until she could no longer see her before turning back around.
My heart felt warm and cozy, like it was stuffed full of cotton, an indescribable warmth.
Qin Shi sat beside her, looking at her calm face, took her hand, and said gently, "When Grandma gets better, we'll come back together to see Uncle and Aunt."
Zhou Yi nodded: "Okay."
