"Baby, drink some water and don't run around."
Ai Qiao raised her head and glanced at the little guy, who was still distracted from taking note of the account book and sorting out the documents on the desktop.
Ji Huai opened a decoration company last month.
Although it was said to be a company, it actually rented a house of more than 70 square meters upstairs and built a reception hall and an office.
The boss is often away and has to take workers to the construction site to catch up on progress.
"Jiajia Manman, fly." The little guy was lying on the sofa, holding an Ultraman in his hand. Hearing his mother's words, he drank from the bottle.
Ai Qiao saw that he drank the water, and before turning around to continue working, she saw someone walking in. She quickly stood up and walked forward, "Hello."
The company usually takes on small projects, but occasionally clients come to the office and want to decorate one or two suites for their own use.
A woman came with curly hair, big earrings, a fashionable dress, boots, sunglasses, and a bag.
He took off his sunglasses, put on a good amount of foundation on his face, glanced around with a hint of arrogance, and asked, "Are you a decoration company here?"
"Yes, you sit down first and I'll pour you a cup of tea." Ai Qiao nodded while trying to keep the customer.
Li Yan walked to the sofa, glanced at the little guy a few more times, sat down, crossed her legs, and said straight to the point, "I have a house to renovate, and all the things in it need to be replaced. Can you be responsible for everything?"
"Price is not an issue, the important thing is that I want to be satisfied."
"Yes, our masters can customize it according to your needs. Here are some sample pictures, you can take a look first." Ai Qiao said with a smile.
Ji Huai got to know a group of decoration masters, so the company has masters with many types of work. After taking the order, the tasks will be assigned, and the accounts will be divided accordingly.
At the same time, she glanced at the little guy, who had already gotten off the sofa, took his Ultraman, and walked obediently to the office with his short legs.
Don't interrupt mom's work.
"I want this style." Li Yan pointed with her red nails and raised her eyebrows, "Just this black and white one, change all the decoration inside, use the best materials, and have that style. , the kind that looks different at first glance.”
"Price is not an issue."
Ai Qiao nodded and showed her the relevant styles, "Our master is not in the company today. You can ask our master to come to your home when it is more convenient for you and formulate a plan according to your apartment type."
"I don't have time, you just have to figure it out. When the master comes, let me know and I'll pick you up over there. The sooner the decoration is done, the better. It's best to start the work right away and move in right away. The higher the price, the higher the price." " She pinched her voice to pretend to be soft, but her voice was already a little hoarse.
When he looked at Ai Qiao with raised eyebrows, there were still a few crow's feet in the corners of his eyes.
"You can work overtime, but you will get a little extra overtime pay. You also know that if you work at night, the master..."
Before Ai Qiao finished speaking, Li Yan waved her hand, the diamond ring on her finger shining, "These are not problems."
"Okay, I will make arrangements for you today. Do you think it will be at two o'clock or three o'clock this afternoon? I will ask the master to come over." Ai Qiao also used his own speed and followed the method given by Ji Huai. In order to facilitate the transaction as soon as possible, he skipped In the inquiry link, two time point choices are directly given.
While asking, he walked to the counter to get paper and pen, and asked for customer information as soon as possible.
"Two o'clock."
"Then your address is..."
Li Yan named a list of addresses.
"Okay." Ai Qiao read it once for confirmation, and then said, "Our master will be waiting for you downstairs at two o'clock in the afternoon, and we will make a plan with you then."
"No problem." Li Yan stood up, put on her sunglasses again, and walked out again on her stiletto heels.
Ai Qiao took a breath, looked at the address recorded on his hand, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
This kind of all-inclusive suite is the most profitable. In addition to earning wages, you can also earn material fees, because the company's materials are all at wholesale prices, and the price difference will be earned after selling them to customers.
When Ji Huai came back, Ai Qiao told him the order information.
afternoon.
Ji Huai and Fang Yizhou came to the community. Before the time came, they walked around downstairs.
"The houses here are expensive." Fang Yizhou smoked a cigarette and looked up at the tall building. "It is said that it is more than 2,000 square meters."
"Well, the central area developed in the early stage will definitely be more expensive." Ji Huai also nodded, and then said, "But the development here is almost complete, and the later development will slow down."
"Work hard and I will buy a house next year." Fang Yizhou took another deep puff of cigarette and put down his harsh words, "If you don't buy a house, how can you get a wife?"
Ji Huai patted his shoulder and looked forward, "Here we come."
A woman got out of the car in front and was looking around, with a trace of impatience on her face.
"A rich man." Fang Yizhou looked at the square car with envy in his eyes.
These days, cars can easily cost tens of thousands, which is a huge amount of money, and only rich people can afford it.
Li Yan glanced at her watch again, lowered her face, felt irritated in her heart, and was about to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, two people appeared in her sight.
The man walking in front was wearing a solid color short-sleeved shirt and dark jeans. He was tall and tall. He smiled and said hello, "Is this Ms. Li?"
Li Yan was stunned.
Looking into his deep eyes, her bright red lips raised and she said, "Decorator?"
"The decorator of Jiahe Decoration Co., Ltd., my surname is Ji, and this is Master Fang." Ji Huai briefly introduced.
Fang Yizhou also smiled at her.
Now they are not only busy at the construction site, Ji Huai has given him the door and window cabinets, and his income has also increased a lot.
Li Yan ignored him, looked at Ji Huai again, and lowered her voice, "Master Ji, come with me."
When Fang Yizhou heard this, he felt something was wrong. He looked at Ji Huai, then at Li Yan's smiling face, and suddenly got goosebumps.
After working for so long, all at the construction site, and never having the chance to see any women, why is this Miss Li so weird
Judging from your age, I'm afraid it's over thirty, right
A few years younger than his mother.
The elevator went up to the sixteenth floor, and the two followed Li Yan into the room. The house was relatively large, with three bedrooms and two living rooms, and the decoration style was very fresh.
Blue-red walls, pink curtains, and doll pillows on the sofa.
"Isn't this well decorated?" Fang Yizhou asked and looked around carefully.
TVs, cigarette smokers, refrigerators, and all kinds of electrical appliances are fully equipped, and clothes are hung to dry on the balcony.
It is a house that has just been renovated.
"I don't like this style. Take these appliances apart and throw them away. Throw them all out, including sofas and beds." Li Yan looked disgusted and raised her fingers. "Renovate them with new materials. Everything here No more."
Fang Yizhou looked at Ji Huai in surprise, only to see the other party nodded and just asked, "Miss Li, is this your house?"
Li Yan frowned, "You don't have to worry about this. I have the right to do this. When my sister-in-law transfers the title to me, it will be mine!"
"It smells like vixen. I have redecorated everything. The walls were all painted and the best materials were used."
Just as Fang Yizhou was about to leave, Ji Huai stopped him, pursed his lips and smiled, "We will arrange these. How does Miss Li want to decorate? What are the specific requirements?"
"Let's sit down and talk."
…
When Ji Huai said this, Li Yan felt better. Yan Xiao sat down and reached out to ruffle her hair, "I'm not stingy either. I don't have any big requirements. A cloakroom and a bedroom, oh, yes. Now, let me decorate the remaining room into a gym."
After he finished speaking, he smiled sheepishly and changed his tone, "I usually pay more attention to physical exercise."
Fang Yizhou looked at the rings of fat on the opponent's waist and fell into deep thought. He once again admired Ji Huai's forbearance. He could still nod his head seriously and ask questions carefully. That was a state he could not reach.
Li Yan was indeed easy to talk to. Her eyes fell on Ji Huai, her eyes were kind and soft, and she nodded with a smile from time to time.
Two hours later, Ji Huai put down his pen and said, "That's it for now. I will prepare a contract when I get back. After signing the contract, we can come and decorate it. We will do it as soon as possible."
"Okay, sorry for the trouble." Li Yan nodded.
"It should be." Ji Huai added, "If you trust us, we will naturally try our best to meet your needs."
"Master Ji is really responsible." Li Yan gently covered her mouth and smiled.
Fang Yizhou looked at her, and the coldness on his body did not dissipate when he went downstairs. Li Yan even offered to send the two of them back.
Ji Huai refused.
Fang Yizhou looked at the car driving away, put his arm on his shoulder, and said something strangely, "Master Ji is really responsible."
"Don't be disgusting." Ji Huai took his hand away.
"Brother Huai, is this house... really okay?" Fang Yizhou was still a little worried, "Could it not be hers?"
"It's not hers now, but it will probably be in the future." Ji Huai looked at him and curled his lips, "As long as you don't break the law, don't make shady money, and the money can be paid, other matters are beyond our scope."
Fang Yizhou thought he was right.
"Write down the requirements and have her sign the contract as soon as possible. Pay the deposit first, and then let Zhang Qi and Xiaojie handle it first." Ji Huai ordered.
"I'll go. I don't want any of the things in the room. They're all quite new. How about selling them as scrap metal? I'll sell them in the second-hand market." Fang Yizhou pestered Ji Huai, "Brother Huai, I want to buy a house next year." , let’s split it half and half, okay?”
After following Ji Huai for a long time, I learned more or less.
"Leave some cigarette money for the two of them." Ji Huai didn't say it clearly, leaving a sentence behind.
"I know." Fang Yizhou followed happily.
the next day.
Li Yan came to the company and signed the contract without reading it. She also paid a deposit of 5,000 yuan and asked only to speed up the process.
At the end, he added, "Throw all that vixen's stuff out to me."
Ai Qiao also felt a little strange, but Ji Huai didn't care, and occasionally said, "I can't control you two, I don't care about all the gossip."
The next day he brought people into the site to work, and in a few days the walls were knocked down.
Reburied wires, customized bed cabinets, installed tiles...
Even the purchase of electrical appliances, Li Yan left the entire process to them, and Ji Huai took care of it all, and he had many tricks up his sleeve.
Ai Qiao was responsible for keeping the company's accounts. She was slightly stunned when she saw the profits. The company contacted the manufacturers, and the wires, switches, and chandeliers were almost 40% off the market price.
From this order, excluding miscellaneous expenses and various payments to workers, their net profit can reach 8,000.
She took a breath, looked at the notebook and calculated again. When she finished the calculation, Ji Huai happened to come out of the bathroom.
"We can make a lot of money." Her voice was pleasantly surprised, and her eyes lit up.
During this period, I first bought a house, then bought furniture intermittently, finally took a break, and then invested money to start a company. It was all in a tense state, and I was living a tight life.
After earning this money, they can breathe a sigh of relief.
Ji Huai walked up behind her, leaned down and hugged her, lowered his head to kiss her, and blew his warm breath behind her ears without caring at all, "I will definitely make more money in the future. These are just small amounts of money."
While kissing, my hands and feet became restless again.
After Ai Qiao gave birth to the little boy, she spent more time at home taking care of him and rarely went out to bask in the sun.
She has gained some flesh, and her skin has become whiter and more tender. After becoming a mother, she has become gentler and more feminine.
Ji Huai would not let her go if he caught her, and the little one was thrown into the second bedroom to sleep by himself. The relationship between the two became increasingly tired.
"It's eight thousand yuan." She said and turned around, her thin lips were kissed again. She reached out to hug him, as if she was afraid he wouldn't believe it, "It's really eight thousand yuan."
Ji Huai did not show surprise, but said, "You haven't calculated my wages yet, it should be two thousand."
"So many?" Ai Qiao opened her eyes slightly again.
He looked at the money-obsessed look on her face and raised the corner of his mouth, "Aren't you trying to catch up on the progress? I'll go over there to catch up when I get back from the construction site. There's also some trouble there, and I'm afraid they can't handle it well."
"Of course the expensive things need to be made more complicated for her, and they have to look high-end, otherwise how can we charge for them? I also have to make her feel at ease with the fees, and feel that they are worth it."
"Isn't that very hard?" Her smile subsided.
"Yes, I will be busy in the next few days. I have to use my time at noon to catch up, and then let Xiaojie move up the finished wardrobe and lay the tiles. This will make it faster. The decoration will be completed as soon as possible. Next month We still have to go to the construction site." Ji Huai muttered, sighed and looked at her, "It's hard work, tiring."
As he spoke, his face still showed fatigue.
Of course Ai Qiao felt distressed. He took the opportunity to hold her. All he had to do was turn off the light. Shouldn't he just let him do whatever he wanted
The atmosphere had just been heightened, and pink bubbles quickly rose around the two of them, making Ji Huai a little anxious.
The next second, the door that wasn't closed was opened, and the little guy bent over slightly and shouted, "Daddy!"
Ai Qiao was startled and pushed him away. Ji Huai took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and looked at the door.
The little guy was wearing pajamas, his little eyes were crooked, and he was dragging his little Ultraman pillow. He was smiling with a cute look on his face, "Daddy, your eyes are open."
It means waking up.
"Go back and sleep again!" Ji Huai looked at him with sharp eyes, his tone was filled with anger, his hands on his sides were clenched, and his veins were bulging.
I can't help it, I have a bad temper.
"No, I won't sleep." The little guy shook his head and dragged his little monster pillow in. He looked at Ji Huai with great energy, "Daddy, fight monsters and play."
"You play with him, I'm going to bed." Ai Qiao got on the bed and got under the quilt with the tips of her ears red from shyness.
The little guy didn't notice anything yet. He walked forward with his short legs and the pillow, then hugged Ji Huai's calf and looked up at his father.
Ji Huai took a deep breath. He wanted to kick the lump of flesh aside.
"Daddy." The little meat ball made a soft and glutinous sound, and put its little head on his calf, rubbing it, and holding his pants with its little fingers.
Ji Huai's anger suddenly stopped coming out.
It's quite uncomfortable to hold it in.
He squatted down, picked up his son, looked at Ai Qiao on the bed, and said in a deep voice, "Don't sleep."
Ai Qiao was so shy that she pulled up the quilt and covered her face.
Ji Huai: "..."
Big and small, they all need to be taken care of.
The next period of time.
Fang Yizhou and the others were busy at the construction site. Ji Huai went to the suite to work, and they were still busy until the afternoon.
Ai Qiao felt that he was very pitiful when he was alone. When there were young workers staying in the company, she would take the little guy to Ji Huai and bring him some food by the way.
After Ji Huai finished his work, he sat down to eat.
Ai Qiao looked around, then sat down with the little guy in his arms, "Is it almost ready to be decorated? It feels almost done."
"Yeah." Ji Huai ate his rice, took a piece of meat and handed it to the little guy's mouth, who opened his mouth.
He moved away slightly.
"Uh... eh..." The little guy was anxious. He stretched his head forward and moved around in his mother's arms, frowning.
This look made Ji Huai laugh. He put the meat in his mouth and reached out to pinch his smooth little face.
Ai Qiao took out the paper from her bag and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, "It's so hot here, how can you sleep?"
The sun is shining here, there is no breeze, and it is very hot. Ji Huai takes a nap here directly, and sometimes comes over at night to catch up on progress.
"It used to be hotter at the construction site, so it's okay." Ji Huai didn't mind. He picked out a piece of ribs and brought it to her mouth. Ai Qiao shook her head, "I've eaten it."
"Eat, daddy." The little guy puffed up his cheeks and opened his mouth to him.
"I won't give it to you." Ji Huai teased him and fed it to Ai Qiao. She shook her head again, "Hurry up and eat."
"Eat, want to eat." The little guy continued to lean towards him, growing his mouth wider, exposing a few small teeth, and moving his hands wildly.
Ai Qiao wanted him to feed his son something to satisfy his craving, but she saw Ji Huai observing the little guy with interest, smiling at her and saying, "Look at him, does he look like a bird in its nest waiting to be fed?"
Howling and chirping.
Not to mention this, he continued to laugh out loud and looked at his son, "He is a little fool with a tiger head and a tiger brain."
Ai Qiao: "..."
She was really sure that this was her biological father.
Before the little guy could eat the next piece of meat, the sound of heels and shoes was heard at the door, and a woman came in. She was startled, and then said quickly, "Sorry, I went to the wrong place."
Then, she walked out again.
As soon as Ji Huai finished his meal, Ai Qiao stood up with his son in his arms, ready to go back.
Before she could say anything, the woman just walked in again and yelled, "What are you doing?"
Curses echoed in the room.
The little guy quickly hid in his mother's arms.
…
What happened next made Ai Qiao feel dizzy.
Hysterical roars and constant cursing.
The family of three was almost kicked out of the house. The other party tried to push her. Ji Huai had a sullen face, but the other party didn't dare to move.
Doesn’t this house belong to Li Yan
They still knew the owner of the house standing in front of them now. It was Zhang Ling who wanted to ask He Qiuxiang to sell her child.
A colleague who worked together in the factory was said to have been promoted to team leader after hooking up with the factory director.
Judging from the clothes the other party was wearing, it was indeed very different from before. Big waves, miniskirt, and stiletto heels. She looked nothing like the girl from the mountains before.
"Why did you demolish my house? Who asked you to demolish it? I want to call the police and let the police arrest you." Zhang Ling turned blue with anger, looked at Ji Huai, and pointed at Ai Qiao, "You two, you two It’s a crime!”
"I asked you what you were doing when you left the factory. It turns out you were doing some sneaky business, and you." She pointed at Ji Huai, her face almost twisted, and said coldly, "It's so shameless, it's too much, I'm so angry. Damn it, I want security to come up, are you sick?"
She thinks the world is crazy.
She only went back to her hometown for two months, and when she came back, someone demolished her house, and she was someone she knew.
Ai Qiao was inevitably a little panicked and confused, but Ji Huai smiled half-heartedly, "Did you really buy the house?"
"We are not randomly demolishing other people's houses. It was Ms. Li Yan who commissioned us to renovate the house and signed a contract to do the work."
…
Hearing this, Zhang Ling, who was blowing up his hair, suddenly felt like a deflated ball, his face turned pale, but he still held on, "This is my house, what does it have to do with her?"
"She said this is her sister-in-law's house, and it will be transferred to her name soon. The person involved has agreed, but this is beyond our control." Ji Huai reminded again.
Zhang Ling's eyes flashed, he was very uneasy, and his hand holding the bag was trembling.
The matter was quite big and went to the police station. Ji Huai was naturally invited there. Ai Qiao was worried and followed him there.
Li Yan also came. Zhang Ling was not so panicked at first, until she saw the woman behind him, she felt a little faint.
That was the factory director's wife. Her belly was so protruding that she might be about to give birth.
"I have nothing and my child has been beaten. What else do you want? This house was promised to me at the beginning." Zhang Ling was still a little angry and kept questioning.
"Who said that? Who can prove it?" the factory owner's wife sneered, "What does it have to do with me if your child is beaten? Do I still need to send you a banner to thank you for serving my husband and not having children? I still have the honor to be a mistress."
Zhang Ling was choked, angry and embarrassed, and his mood was obviously not right.
The factory manager's wife said to the police, "My husband and I's property is jointly owned by husband and wife. I will take it back and give it to my husband's sister. Is this correct?"
Before the police said anything, Zhang Ling said quickly, "This apartment has been transferred to me and is going through the procedures."
"Without my consent, who will follow the procedures?" The factory owner's wife smiled softly, as if she was laughing at her ignorance and stupidity.
In the end, nothing came out of the dispute.
The factory director also hurried over. Facing Zhang Ling's unreasonable troubles, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He ignored her cries and walked over to apologize to his wife.
He almost fell to his knees.
The factory owner's wife had a cold face. Li Yan, who was standing on the side, was not weak in fighting ability. She pointed at Zhang Ling and taunted him, and her words were very unpleasant.
In the end, because Zhang Ling could not provide evidence and the so-called transfer process was not completed, the house still belonged to the factory director and his wife and could be given to Li Yan.
Moreover, Li Yan's decoration was also authorized.
Ai Qiao looked at Zhang Ling with a pale face and was being manipulated like a soft persimmon, almost to the point of being manipulated by the factory owner's wife.
When they were leaving, the other party snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Are you happy being a monster behind your back? If I hadn't been too lazy to pay attention to you while I was preparing for pregnancy, what kind of trouble do you think you could have caused?"
"I won't care about the little money you spent. I'll treat it as a reward so that you can wake up and recognize your identity."
…
Zhang Ling cried and cursed, and was greatly shocked. "What about my future? I have nothing. Where is my child?"
"I will never have children again."
"Isn't that what you deserve?" The other party glanced at her and left expressionlessly. The factory director followed behind her, nodding and bowing, but her eyes were only cold, and seemed to be mixed with a hint of happiness.
Ai Qiao looked at the two of them, feeling unspeakable in her heart. Who is the winner
There seems to be no winner.
Before she could lament that the trouble had fallen on her, she saw Li Yan coming to Ji Huai, "What's the relationship between you two? Why are you together?"
The words were still a little dissatisfied and he asked.
Ai Qiao was also uncomfortable. Ji Huai took the lead and walked over to hug the little one, "She is my wife."
"Are you married?" She suddenly darkened her face.
Aiqiao: "???"
"This is my son." Ji Huai also looked a little confused as to what she meant.
"I never heard you say that. Why did you get married so early?" Li Yan also realized that she was losing her temper and managed to say something.
"It was settled early." Ji Huai replied with a smile.
Li Yan looked at Ai Qiao a few more times, her eyes becoming more and more dissatisfied, and she turned around and left.
Ai Qiao looked at Zhang Ling who was losing control of her emotions on the side, then at Li Yan who was leaving, and then at Ji Huai.
I still feel a little confused and at a loss.
What's the meaning
Is Li Yan interested in Ji Huai
Fang Yizhou could see that the atmosphere was awkward, so he simply said half-jokingly, "Brother Huai, are you attracted by a rich woman?"
In fact, everyone could tell just now that Li Yan was somewhat interested in Ji Huai. He said this to give Ji Huai a warning and to lighten the atmosphere. It was better to make it clear than Ai Qiao and Ji Huai going back to have trouble. .
"What the hell?" Ji Huai scolded him lightly, "I'll shut your mouth if you talk nonsense!"
"Otherwise, what do you mean? But I heard from my sister that the factory belongs to his wife's natal family. The factory director's family is extremely poor. His sister may not have much money. She is also very old and can't keep her mouth shut. Fang Yizhou said with a smile, then looked at Ai Qiao, "Sister-in-law, right?"
Ai Qiao's emotions fluctuated a bit, and she deliberately darkened her face, "He dares!"
Li Yan is very proud, wearing famous brands and wearing diamonds on her hands. I have heard before that the factory owner's wife takes good care of the factory director and his family, and pays wages even though she does not work.
Driving a car and living in a big house, she was actually a little panicked and at a loss.
"I don't dare." Ji Huai quickly shook his head. Now he was no longer afraid of losing face and quickly promised.
Xu Guojie and others laughed and made fun of him.
"Hey." Fang Yizhou didn't let them talk any more and changed the topic, "You know the recent news about He Qiuxiang, right? She makes quite a joke."
"She also gave birth to a child. She gave birth to a daughter. I guess she has to raise it by herself even if she doesn't buy it. Weidong hasn't divorced yet, and the money for the land acquisition was taken by his wife. She didn't lose a penny. I heard from my sister. You still have to make money to support that man, you are really stupid."
"When did she become smart? Is this normal?" Xu Guojie also joined the conversation and asked, "Zhang Jun came to see you a few days ago?"
"Yeah, I want to come to Brother Huai, but I didn't reveal the news, so I can't let this troublemaker come in. He followed Weidong to work on the construction site, and ended up defaulting on the money. He worked for more than half a year and never saw a penny except for his meal money. , both of them turned against each other." Fang Yizhou shook his head as he said, "He is very miserable now and very lazy. He has been sleeping on the overpass recently. I gave him dozens of yuan for fear that he would starve to death."
…
