Chapter 624 Satisfying one side but not the other
As he grows older, he becomes stronger and more agile.
He was being held by Aunt Dong, and his small body was surprisingly strong enough to quickly reach Sheng Mingying. He grabbed Sheng Mingying's hand with his little hands and tried his best to reach the phone.
Sheng Mingying was being gripped by the little guy so tightly it hurt; this little thing is really something else.
It's only been a few months and it's already so strong; imagine how big it will be when it gets even older.
Sheng Mingying quickly said, "Okay, okay, Grandma will tell you, our Yuyu guessed right, it was Zhou Yi's mother on the phone."
"Grandma, answer it now, please answer it now."
Holding the little one's hand, Sheng Mingying answered the phone, put it on speakerphone, and said with a smile, "Zhou Yi."
in the car.
As Zhou Yi heard the dial tone on her phone, Sheng Mingying's cheerful voice came through. Zhou Yi's face was full of smiles as she called out, "Mom, is Yuyu awake now?"
"Oh my god!"
Zhou Yi's voice came from the phone, and the little guy immediately spoke up, waving his little hands excitedly in the air, and jumping on Aunt Dong's body with his little legs.
They were incredibly happy.
It's as if it's saying: I was good, I didn't cry, I didn't make a fuss, I was waiting for Zhou Yi's mom to come back~
Zhou Yi was delighted to hear the little one's voice and smiled, "Yu Yu is awake?"
"They woke up a long time ago, didn't they?"
The little one said, "Ya ya~ ya ya~ Mom ya ya~"
It seems to be saying: Yes, Yuyu is awake. Yuyu misses her mother very much.
Hearing the little one's voice, Zhou Yi could clearly hear the longing in it. She said apologetically, "Yu Yu, I'm sorry, Aunt Zhou Yi was delayed and came back late, but Aunt Zhou Yi is on her way back now."
The little one said: Yay~ Yay~ Mommy yay~
It seems to be saying: It's okay, Zhou Yi's mother doesn't need to apologize, I know~
That soft, tender voice made one's heart melt. Zhou Yi smiled and said, "It's just that Aunt Zhou Yi is going to the market before going back. Aunt Zhou Yi is going to the market to buy groceries, and then she'll go back to play with Yu Yu. After that, she'll go to the hospital to cook for her brother, who was injured yesterday."
Sheng Mingying held the phone and lovingly presented it to the little guy, letting him talk to Zhou Yi.
Now that Zhou Yi's words had reached her ears, the loving expression on Sheng Mingying's face vanished. She picked up her phone and asked, "Zhou Yi, you just said your brother was injured? What happened?"
Sheng Mingying knew nothing about this, and Xiao Liu hadn't told her either.
Sheng Mingying's voice came through, and Zhou Yi replied earnestly, "Yes, there was a little accident last night, and my brother got injured, so Mom, I was a bit delayed today. I'm sorry."
Her voice was sincere and apologetic; many times she wished she could be two different people.
One of them stayed at the old house taking care of Yuyu, while the other took care of her brother and grandmother at the hospital.
But that won't work; there's only one of her, and she can't be divided into two, so time is always tight, and if one thing is satisfied, the other can't be.
Hearing her voice, Sheng Mingying clearly sensed something was wrong and asked, "It's alright. How serious is your brother's injury? Is he in the hospital? Does Xiao Liu know about this?"
Zhou Yi said, "It's alright, it's not too serious, he doesn't need to be hospitalized, but he needs to be more careful and rest for a few days. My husband knows about this and has arranged for a caregiver to take care of him, so Mom, you don't need to worry."
Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Sheng Mingying knew that things were much better, and immediately said, "It's good that it's not serious. Are you going to the market to buy groceries to make a nutritious meal for your brother?"
Zhou Yi said, "Yes, I want to cook nutritious meals for my brother and grandma. I'll go to the market to buy groceries first, and after I've bought them and checked on Yuyu, I'll go to the hospital."
Sheng Mingying said, "You bought all these vegetables but aren't you going to cook them at home?"
Zhou Yi paused for a moment, then understood what Sheng Mingying meant, and quickly said, "Mom, my brother lives in the hospital's staff apartment, which has a kitchen. I'll cook in my brother's apartment."
She can't do it in the old house, that's not allowed.
Sheng Mingying said helplessly, "You child, we're all family, why go to your brother's place to cook? I'll just have the chef prepare it here, and you can send it over after you come back and spend time with Yuyu."
Zhou Yi said, "No, no, Mom, I want to do it myself. My brother and Grandma..."
Sheng Mingying interrupted her: "You can do it yourself. We have everything at home. You can do it at home as long as you're back."
"Whatever you want to make, Mom will have the chef prepare the ingredients for you. You can just cook it when you get back. Otherwise, it's too much trouble for you to go shopping for groceries and then go to the hospital to cook by yourself."
"It's settled then. You cook at home, and then you deliver it over. Just tell Aunt Qi what dishes you want to make, and she'll instruct the kitchen staff to prepare them."
After saying that, Sheng Mingying handed the phone to Qi Ma and gestured to her with her eyes what to do.
Qi Ma understood what Sheng Mingying meant, nodded, and took the phone: "Young Madam, what dishes would you like to make? Tell me now and I'll write it down."
As she spoke, Aunt Qi instructed the maid to fetch paper and pen.
Hearing the voices from this side, Zhou Yi opened her lips to refuse, but before she could speak, Qi Ma's voice came over, and Zhou Yi was immediately speechless.
The old lady was very kind and worried about her being overworked, so she had the servants do everything except take care of Yu Yu.
She never thought of cooking for her brother and grandmother in the old house. Although she and her husband are now husband and wife, that's just on the surface; the reality is different.
She can't take things for granted, and she can't really treat everything in the old house as her own, using it whenever she wants.
This is not allowed.
Zhou Yi always kept in mind her duties and responsibilities as an employee.
Now that the old lady said this, Zhou Yi felt warm and touched. She said in a gentle voice, "Mom, it's like this, today is a little different. One of my brother's friends is there, so I want to buy some groceries and cook them there so we can all eat together."
Qi's mother was holding her phone on speakerphone when Zhou Yi's voice came through. Qi's mother looked at Sheng Mingying.
Sheng Mingying's brow twitched instantly, a glint of light flashed in her eyes, and she reached out to Qi Ma.
Qi's mother handed her the phone.
Sheng Mingying took the phone and said, "Friend? What friend? Is it your girlfriend?"
Zhou Yi smiled and said, "I think so, but I'm not sure right now."
Zhou Yi is honest and simple-minded, always speaking the truth. Sheng Mingying sensed something was amiss and said, "What do you mean 'should be'? Don't you know if your brother has a girlfriend?"
Zhou Yi scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "My brother never told me this. I only found out by calling him just now. But this matter is a bit complicated. It seems that the caregiver was found by Assistant Song, but she also seems to be very familiar with my brother. So I don't know the specifics of the situation right now."
Sheng Mingying smiled, then looked at Qi's mother, who smiled back.
They both understood.
What caregiver? That's just trouble Wenren Chen created for Qin Shi.
