Chapter 657
Moving
"Let's go," Guan Ma breathed a sigh of relief after receiving thoughtful support, and put on her usual happy and generous smile: "dinner is ready!"
Zhou Zhi really admires Guan Ma. She never sees the difficulties in life. She always shows her optimistic, cheerful, generous and loving side in front of her daughter.
Now that Guan Ma has said this to herself, she really treats herself as an eldest child, even someone who can help her make decisions.
Zhou Zhi is actually quite grateful for this consideration.
This is a very strange emotion. People who are not familiar with themselves can often treat themselves as equals, regardless of their age.
And among the people who have watched me grow up, even my fourth cousin who is most aware of my achievements in collecting, my godfather and stepmother with my literary achievements, and my family members who are financially successful, still do not regard me as an adult.
Mom is a semi-exception. When you need money, you are an adult, and the rest of the time, you are a child.
Now there is an extra Guan Ma.
"Sister Qi looks good lately." Zhou Zhi joked with Tang Qi during the meal, pretending not to know the truth.
"Qiqi is here." Jiang Wu couldn't hide his excitement and said, "In eight months, I will be a father!"
Behind the mansion, outside the fish pond, several concierges were previously occupied by an auto repair shop and converted into garage parking.
Now those rooms have been vacated and can be used as warehouses.
"That's good if that's the case." Jiang Wu was also a decisive person and said to Tang Qi: "But we also have to give Guan Ma a salary..."
Jiang Wu actually thought it was a good idea in his heart. He had seen the food cooked by Guan Ma several times and it was quite good.
Zhou Zhi was quite happy because the house had to be occupied by people, but he was a little worried about letting Guan Tingting and her daughter live here.
"Don't try too hard." Zhou Zhi said what Jiang Wu wanted to say but dared not say: "In the period from waiting for you to show your pregnancy to fully recovering, it is impossible for the group to arrange for you to perform on the stage again. Do you still want to say it?"
Are you going to perform a performance to support the grassroots?"
Although the couple will live here at most until Tang Qi is out of confinement, Jiang Wu also said that it is not necessary to live in the master room, but a small guest suite on the second floor would be fine, but Zhou Zhi said that it would have to be vacated sooner or later anyway, and he could also take stock of the property.
But the conditions here are not as good as those two places.
"Congratulations!" Tang Qi still frowned: "It's only been eight months, you can't restrain me to death!"
Suspension of pay is a method used by many units to deal with redundant personnel. For employees who are willing to work hard to find a way out, the unit agrees to retain the employee's job title and personnel relationship within the unit, but no longer pays wages, leaving them free to go out and wander.
"Isn't this simple?" Zhou Zhifu asked in his heart, "You and Brother Wu, wouldn't it be nice to move here?"
Okay, this is Zhou Zhi's idea.
Only then did Zhou Zhi realize that this was Tang Qi's trouble for young singers. She was also considered a star and was afraid of being harassed by the current media.
The current Suihuaxuan has basically been transformed into a villa with a small park. The scenery and air are not to mention. Although the transportation is a bit inconvenient, it is not a problem for Tang Qi and Jiang Wu who have cars.
So it took another day the next day, and everyone finally moved everything in the master room to the warehouse.
It would be great if Jiang Wu and Tang Qi also moved here, especially Jiang Wu, who has a military temperament and can completely control the situation.
"Pregnant women should live a relaxed and happy life," Zhou Zhi said with a smile, "I mean it sincerely. Isn't it nice for Sister Qi to stay here while she is recuperating, serving flowers and plants, growing vegetables, playing the piano and singing?"
"I think my sister-in-law Cancan's arrangement is very good. She uses the period of pregnancy to enrich herself," Zhou Zhi continued: "She herself plans to use this time to pass the correspondence undergraduate courses of advanced mathematics and English, and get the
Graduation certificate.”
"In this case, Guan Ma and Tingting can live here," Zhou Zhi said in the most powerful way: "Guan Ma can take care of people, and the food she cooks is delicious. Tingting can also go to school and come back from school with Sister Qi.
It’s great that you can also take up professional courses!”
Now two "cave dwellings" have been excavated at the foot of the hillside near the riverside road as garages. Later, Zhou Zhi had the idea to turn the small stone staircase leading downhill to the river into a pavilion pattern with green tiles.
When you go from the mansion to the garage, you don't need to hold an umbrella even on rainy days. You can sit down and enjoy the scenery at any time along the way.
"It's just a little inconvenient to get in and out here." Zhou Zhi said, "But since you all know how to drive, this problem won't exist."
"That's true." Tang Qi spat, "I usually have to go to class, and the troupe also has performance tasks."
"What do you mean?" Zhou Zhi was dumbfounded. What does pregnancy have to do with restraint?
"What you, Sister Tang, mean is that you don't want too many people to know about this matter. You can do it quietly." Jiang Wu said.
After dinner, Zhou Zhi and Mr. Qiao went up to the third floor to inventory the furniture.
"Jiang Wu, what do you think of Zhou Zhi's idea?" Tang Qi turned to her husband and asked.
"Hmm..." Jiang Wu thought for a while: "If you like it, then live here first. Tingting is fine. Guan Ma, you still have to work in Jiachuan, right?"
By moving all the furniture on the third floor there, the space in the master room can be freed up and left to Jiang Wu and Tang Qi to decorate it.
"Hey, I don't have a job!" Guan Ma said: "Xiao Wu, you don't know that our county Sichuan Opera Troupe is not living now, and we rely on the rent of a few video halls for wages. If you don't dislike my skills, I will
Just call home and apply for a leave of absence without pay!"
"Really?!" Zhou Zhi raised the bowl: "Congratulations!"
Jiang Wu couldn't resist, so he had to say: "Okay, then I'll ask Station Commander Liu to find a few soldiers to help."
Only then did Tang Qi realize that Zhou Zhi had already known what she had discussed with Guan Ma, and was now helping her assist in capturing Jiang Wu.
Tang Qi was a little tempted. She and Jiang Wu actually had two properties now. One was the welfare house assigned to her by Sichuan Yin before, and the other was the cadre dormitory assigned to Jiang Wu in the army.
"You don't have to worry about these." Tang Qi picked up the soup bowl with a smile: "I will discuss these with Guan Ma!"
Half of the third floor is the roof garden and half is the master room. Now the master room is unusable except for a few rooms because it is where mahogany furniture is piled.
Those pieces of furniture are old items left by Su Huaxuan. They were bought together with the mansion at that time. They are all good things.
After taking away some things, Zhou Zhi felt that the remaining good items could be left here for display, but Tang Qi didn't like it and felt that it was intrusive, so she had no choice but to give up.
This batch of furniture that was inventoried, the most important and valuable ones, are all from the middle and late Qing Dynasty. The materials are excellent. In addition to red sandalwood and huanghuali, there is also the king of light wood in Sichuan - golden nan.
Phoebe itself is generally woody, but after thousands of years of darkness, when the cavities of the wood cells are filled with minerals in the water, it becomes different.
The surface of the wooden boards produced from such dark wood will emit a mineral reflection similar to opal, with a mixture of gold and green, plus natural wood grain, which is very beautiful.
