AWB Chapter 125 New Employee Granny Yang
Chapter 125 New Employee Granny Yang
As soon as I stepped out of the hospital, a group of reporters swarmed in from all directions.
In the car, in the shop, in the supermarket across the street, in the newsstand...
They had been waiting here for several days, and finally they saw him in person!
Honestly, police staking out criminals isn't all that bad.
Gu Zheng frowned, exuding a cold aura. Just as he was about to send him away, Lin Xi stopped him.
She had witnessed the perseverance of these reporters; they wouldn't give up until they achieved their goal.
If I don't say something today, I won't have a moment's peace later.
Before the reporters could ask any questions, Lin Xi stepped forward and said, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern. The biggest heroes in this fire are the firefighters who are working tirelessly in the flames every day. Please don't pay too much attention to me, and focus your attention on them."
He then looked at the camera and said, “At the same time, take my experience as a warning. We must act within our capabilities, otherwise we will not only put ourselves in danger, but also cause trouble for the firefighters.”
She has a system that protects her, but others don't. If someone were to imitate her, it would be disastrous.
"Finally, we hope everyone will raise their fire safety awareness and pay attention to fire and electricity safety!"
After saying that, he hurriedly jumped into the car.
The reporters still had many questions to ask, but the car had already driven away quickly.
In Linjia Village, Granny Yang sat under a big tree at the village entrance, gazing into the distance.
Since Lin Xi was hospitalized, she has been sitting here every day waiting for the Lin family to return.
If it weren't for Lin Xi, her grandson would have been burned to death long ago.
But to this day, she hasn't had a chance to say thank you.
As noon approached and the sun grew increasingly scorching, she sighed and was about to turn back when she saw several cars approaching in the distance.
Each car was more luxurious than the last, but the most luxurious one was undoubtedly Bao Guzheng's.
A few cars sped by in no time. Granny Yang rubbed her eyes; she thought she saw Da Yuan.
With a look of delight, she hurried home, knowing that Xiaoxi had been discharged from the hospital and she needed to get a chicken to nourish the child.
When Lin Xi and the others arrived home, the house had been uninhabited for a week and was covered in dust.
Fortunately, there were many people, and the cleaning was completed in no time.
Just as Lin Guiying was about to go out to buy a goose, Granny Yang came over with two live chickens. "Guying, I knew it was you guys coming back. Thank you for Xiaoxi this time, she saved my grandson. I... I don't have anything good here, so you can stew a chicken for the child to help him recover."
Her eyes were red and she looked flustered, feeling both grateful and afraid that Lin Guiying would dislike her.
But she really didn't have anything valuable; all she had left were two chickens.
Lin Guiying knew her situation and was somewhat conflicted.
She felt bad about taking them, since she had raised those two chickens for who knows how long, and even Granny Yang herself couldn't bear to eat them.
I don't want to, but I'm afraid it will hurt Granny Yang's feelings.
In the end, he only picked up one, saying, "Hey, we've lived in the same village for so many years, no need to be so polite. Xiaoxi loves chicken stew with mushrooms the most, I'll make it for her in a bit."
"But one is enough; the doctor doesn't let her eat anything too oily."
"Take the other one home and raise it."
Granny Yang objected, "Quickly, take them all. I... I think it's too much of a waste of food to keep them alive."
Granny Yang was not good with words and didn't know how to express her gratitude, so she just wanted to give the Lin family her best things.
Lin Guiying was about to refuse again, but Lin Xi stepped forward and took it, smiling broadly as she said, "Grandma Yang, thank you. This chicken is so plump, it smells delicious."
Grandma Yang looked at the child and saw how much weight she had lost in the week she hadn't seen her. Her face was full of pity, and her nose tingled with tears. "Little Xi, look how thin you are. Eat more."
"It's okay, I'll gain the weight back in a few days."
"By the way, Grandma Yang, my shop is opening in a couple of days and I'm so busy. Could you come and help me out?"
Granny Yang was worried about how to repay the Lin family, but when she heard Lin Xi say this, she nodded repeatedly, "Good, good, of course I can, when are we going?"
Lin Guiying immediately understood what her granddaughter meant and said, "I'll call you then."
The shop will definitely be short-staffed after it expands, so it's a good opportunity to send Grandma Yang there to earn some money to supplement the family income. Besides, the shop is full of men, so they can do the heavy work. Grandma Yang can just do some light work and won't get too tired.
Lin Xi then tugged at Lin Guiying and said coquettishly, "Oh, Grandma, our shop is full of men, and they are all a bit careless. It would be great if Grandma Yang could always help out in the shop."
Lin Guiying tapped Lin Xi's head and said in agreement, "How can you be so shameless? There's so much work to do at the shop, and you're helping out every day. How can your Grandma Yang stand it?"
Granny Yang pulled her close, saying, "I can take it, I can take it, I'm in great shape!"
Lin Guiying refused, saying, "No, no."
The two went back and forth.
After three rounds, Lin Xi stamped her foot and said, "Oh well, I just want Grandma Yang to come. Isn't that much better than hiring someone from outside? She's from our own village, so I can trust her. At worst, I can just pay Grandma Yang the same price as hiring someone."
Lin Guiying seized the opportunity and said, "That's more like it, let's settle on that then!"
Grandma Yang waved her hands repeatedly, "No, I don't want a salary, I just want to help."
Lin Guiying pouted and looked at Lin Xi, "See? I told you it wouldn't work. Nobody wants to do that kind of work every day."
"No, I'd be willing to do it every day."
"It's not that I'm belittling you, but you definitely won't be able to hold on."
Lin Xi pulled Grandma Yang along, "Then let's pay her a salary. If we give her the money, Grandma Yang won't run away prematurely."
Lin Guiying nodded in agreement, "That's true, Granny Yang. My granddaughter has just recovered from a serious illness, so let's listen to her. The doctor said she can't get angry. I'll have to trouble you from now on."
"You have no idea how difficult it is for us to hire waiters. If you could come, it would save me a lot of trouble."
Upon hearing this, Granny Yang exclaimed, "I can!"
"Alright, then you'll be a full-fledged employee of the Lin family. You'll start working in a few days."
Granny Yang left in high spirits, feeling that she had done the Lin family a great favor.
Lin Xi and Lin Guiying exchanged a glance and gave each other a high five.
"Grandma, you're really good at making things up. When did the doctor say I can't get angry?"
"Didn't you make it up first?"
"Oh dear, we were just afraid that if she knew we were helping her out, she would feel bad about it!"
"Hmph, luckily your grandma reacted quickly enough."
……
Fu Wenyuan stood at the doorway and looked at Gu Zheng, who was also watching the show. "How about that? I told you your junior sister is better than all of you!"
Gu Zheng was confused. "What? She just tricked another waitress into coming to her house?"
Fu Wenyuan's lips twitched. "Get lost!"
He really didn't need to say that; he's hopeless.
He was so blind back then!
Li Kefan also shook his head. Why was he his senior brother?
Li Xinxin, however, was only focused on calling out, "Grandma Lin, what are we going to eat later?"
……
After the meal, all the food was cleaned up.
Lin Guiying couldn't help but exclaim, "This basin doesn't even need washing; it's so clean it looks like it's never contained any food."
Lin Xi nodded, "Yes, Grandma, just wash Second Brother's bowl."
Gu Zheng looked at his bowl, which was completely empty of rice. "You think I'm dirty?"
"You little brat, you heartless bastard, I'm going to cut off your wig..."
The two started arguing.
The others exchanged glances, realizing they clicked; it would be strange if those two didn't argue when they met.
No wonder I always felt like something was missing before.
The main reason was that Lin Xi couldn't stand everyone's pitying looks anymore; they all treated her like a glass doll.
I'm really okay now.
Since you don't believe it, then use Gu Zheng as proof.
