After sending Tao Qing off, they went back in to see Cao Xiaoxia already eating grapes.

"Sis, that person just now, was Tao Yun's mother?"

Cao Xiaoling nodded, while wiping her sister's sticky paws. "Do you still remember the first time I made bedding for people? for her. "

"Wow!"

Cao Xiaoxia exclaimed, "She really has quite the temperament. When have I become such a woman?"

"What? Just meeting you once has already conquered you?"

"After all, he's a living artist. It's quite rare." Cao Xiaoxia stuck out her tongue, "Sis, Tao Yun is so ugly, how could he have such a beautiful mother?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because I followed dad."

"However, I keep feeling that even such a beautiful woman would not look down upon those stinking men."

"Only a man and a woman." Cao Xiaolian was not in a good mood. She patted her hands and said, "What are you eating this afternoon? I'll go to the restaurant outside and ask them to cook some pig's feet for us."

"Sis, you've only been here for a day. I'm already fat." Cao Xiao Xia pouted. "Besides, the pig's feet are so fat, I won't eat them."

"Obedient, this is called using form to complement form." Cao Xiaolian took the towel and hung it up to dry. She heard her sister say, "Hey, sis. I forgot to tell you. Sister He Qing came over before you came."

"What?" Cao Xiaolian quickly wiped her hands and walked over. "How did she know?"

"I think her man knows our instructor." Cao Xiaoxia tilted her head. "Anyway, she came when I came to the hospital. She cried when I heard I was going to have surgery."

"When you're better, let's go and have a look."

He Qing really had helped him a lot. Moreover, she had been looking for the school ever since she gave birth to her child. She had been extremely busy with the matter of registering for the exam, so she had delayed it.

After staying in the hospital for three days, the doctor came early on the fourth day to check that there were no more major problems and that no vigorous exercise, including dancing, was allowed for three months.

Cao Xiaoxia suddenly burst into tears. She said that there would be another dance rehearsal. Everyone could only comfort her and say that they would have another chance next time.

Looking at her crying sister, Cao Xiaolian was a little more disgusted with Tao Yun.

He was discharged and didn't return to his dorm. Instead, he stayed at the school's hotel.

On this road was the Dance Academy, the Music Academy, and the Fine Arts Academy. The three schools were connected, so there was a pretty good hotel here, where Cao Xiaoling was staying.

Cao Xiaoxia was speechless when she saw the decorations in the hall, "Sis, how much money would it cost for one night?"

"You can live in peace. What, are you afraid that I'll sell you out?"

"Even if I sold it, I wouldn't be able to get that much money." After all, she was still a child. When she saw the cozy room and the delicious food, she could not care less about the money. She was so happy that her eyebrows were raised.

After all, this hotel was the highest grade hotel in the hearts of poor students. They never expected that they would one day be able to stay here.

"Dawn." Cao Xiaoling suddenly said, "Let's go take a look at the house near the school."

"Huh?" Cao Xiaoxia, who was still eating, thought that her sister was about to fall down, so she quickly stopped her, "Sis, I'm really fine. You can go back in two days. I'll go back to school." Besides, school is about to start. "

"No, let's take a look at the houses nearby. I want to buy one."

"Cough, cough, cough, cough!" Cao Xiaoxia was immediately stuck. She quickly grabbed the water beside her and gulped down a few mouthfuls. Only then did she calm down.

Then he looked at Cao Xiaoling in disbelief, "Sis, are you stupid? "It's fine, why are you buying a house here?"

"Sis is thinking, maybe you can stay in the future. If you stay in Shanghai, you should have a place to stay, right?"

"Not even then." Cao Xiaoxia muttered, "I'm still far from joining a job. Besides, I can still live in a dormitory. "In the future, your work will be good, and you will have to return it to your branch."

It was no wonder that she thought this way. Nowadays, people rarely bought a house on their own. When their hometown's house was sold, Mother Cao wasn't very happy with it either.

She did not even mention the Beijing house, fearing that it would lead to another dispute.

The Shanghai one was different. The reason they bought it was also because their mother and sister had a small nest. Therefore, they must discuss this house with them.

"Sis, I definitely won't buy it. You don't even know how expensive the things in Shanghai are. I didn't ask, but I knew it wasn't something we could think of. "Besides, you thought you were buying cabbages."

Cao Xiaolian laughed inside. If you knew the price of property in Shanghai 20 years later, you would be buying cabbages now.

However, she was not in a hurry about this matter. Besides, it was not that easy to find a house. After all, there weren't many personal properties in the market. Shanghai does not have many buildings.

After sleeping for the whole night, Cao Xiaolian said that she would go see He Qing the next day. Cao Xiaoxia also wanted to follow. In the end, she couldn't refuse and got on a taxi downstairs to the hotel. They arrived at the entrance of the military compound.

He got out of the car and walked over. It was the same guard who said as if he knew Cao Xiaoling, "Oh, it's you again."

"Yeah, I'm looking for sister He Qing. Sorry for troubling you."

Cao Xiaoling had a sweet smile on her face and she was pretty too. The guard called her and said, "Wait a minute. We'll be right out."

Not even five minutes after he finished speaking, he saw a beautiful woman carrying a little girl walk out.

"Xiao Lian!"

When He Qing saw her, she quickly ran forward two steps and approached. She said in surprise, "It really is you. You are really elusive and came just like that. You didn't even greet me in advance."

"I didn't expect it when I came." Cao Xiaolian smiled embarrassedly, "I've troubled you again."

"What trouble? You even said such a kind word to me."

"This is your daughter, right? She's so beautiful."

Of course, He Qing's daughter had grown up along with her father's thick eyebrows and small mouth. Her eyes were round and black like her mother's, and her nose was small. However, both of them had a high nose bridge.

When she saw Cao Xiaolian, she turned around and reached out to hug her.

Cao Xiaoling laughed. "This little guy is really not afraid of death. Come, let me hug him."

"Be careful, she's sunk."

After receiving it, Cao Xiaolian hugged the soft ball, feeling it to be like cotton. "It's really fun."

"You girls." He Qing laughed, "They already treat children as pets."

"It's not that all the kids like her, she's just cute."

Cao Xiaolian's words were true. She didn't really like children, but this little girl's appearance was really painful. Her big, watery eyes and her mother's dressing made her even more dexterous.

"Right, what's her name?"

"Not yet. My name is Pearl." He Qing took her daughter from him and realized Cao Xiaoxia's foot, "Aiya, look at me. I forgot that Morning Glory's foot is not fully recovered yet. Come, let's go in first. Let's talk at home."

Cao Xiaolian helped her sister into the district and found out that He Qing's family had moved.

"We built a new building last year, and then based on seniority, it gave us a bigger one."

This time, the house was on the first floor, which was more convenient for Cao Xiaoxia.

As soon as he entered, he was attracted by the spacious living room.

"Wow, this living room should be around 40 square meters, right?" Cao Xiaolian was also surprised. In this era, especially in a city like the Shanghai capital, housing was crowded. Many of the ancestors and grandchildren were still squeezed into a small, dilapidated room of twenty or thirty square meters.

"Hey, just look at that and don't look inside." He Qing said helplessly, "The three rooms are all very small, the biggest is only 10 square meters, but the living room seems too big and uncomfortable."

Cao Xiaolian took a look. Indeed, each bedroom was very small.

"Last time I saw someone's house abroad, it was built in an exquisite manner and had a very good layout. I wonder when will our country be able to live in that sort of room. "

"Soon, soon." Cao Xiaolian smiled comfortingly at Pearl who was crawling on the sofa. "We will be able to live here once Pearl grows up."

The two chatted for a while. Most of the time, He Qing complained about Cao Xiaolian's accident and didn't contact her. Later, she talked about Cao Xiaoxia, telling her to come over if she had nothing to do.

She felt that she had a special relationship with this Cao family's two sisters.

Cao Xiaoliu agreed without hesitation. After chatting for a while, she brought up the topic of business.

"Remember, didn't you send me a down jacket?"

When Cao Xiaolian brought her mother here last year, she also gave a down jacket to He Qing.

"As for their side, after seeing this set of clothes, they felt that they were especially resistant to the cold during winter, so they wanted to order a batch. How's it going over there? Can you still produce more?"

"This, I have to ask." Cao Xiaoling said honestly, "Ever since I decided to go to the capital to study, I haven't asked about the factory anymore."

He Qing was also sighing endlessly. However, who would have thought that they would meet with such an unfortunate situation?

Fortunately, Cao Xiaolian was strong, and He Qing didn't want to bring it up. She just told Cao Xiaoliu to study hard. Once she got her diploma, she would be more promising.

After sitting for a while, Little Pearl was tired, so it was about time for the two sisters to take their leave.

Before he left, He Qing wanted to pick up some things from home. Cao Xiaolian strongly advised him not to. It was inconvenient to stay at the hotel, so he gave up.

As soon as he returned to the hotel, Cao Xiaoxia shouted at him to buy her sister something to eat.

It just so happened that it was about time for her to take advantage of this time to do some personal matters.

She went to the restaurant to order some food. While waiting for the food, Cao Xiaolan found a public phone booth and called Chen Lifen to inform her about the situation. Chen Lifen agreed immediately. She also said that the benefits of the factory were not as good as it used to be. This was good as well. The reliable employees all chose to stay. Xiaofang was very tired every day, and she went to sell every day. Gradually, she regained some of her popularity.

If it was in the past, this deal would not be called a big deal. However, to the current factory, it was still a big deal.

After asking her about the current situation, Chen Lifen hung up the phone.

As soon as she hung up, she dialed another number.

It was a phone call that he had memorized for a long time.

After two rings, the third ring, the call connected.

"Hello."

The voice on the other end of the phone was light and gentle.

Cao Xiaoliu suddenly wanted to do something naughty, but she did not say anything.

Then, he suddenly laughed:

"Xiao Lian, you missed me so much? You didn't even want to talk because you called to hear my voice? "

Uh! He was being flirted with again.

Cao Xiaolian raised her brows, "Li YuGeng, I want to hear if you have been good or not recently. There are any weird noises over there."

"Strange sound?" Li YuGeng thought for a moment and immediately understood. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry and lowered his voice. "It really is. Do you want to hear it?"

Cao Xiaolian's heart skipped a beat. "What is it?"

"Just you wait."

After saying this, he suddenly raised his voice. "Happy, here."

Just as he was wondering who would come up with such a vulgar name, he suddenly heard the sound of food being chugged down from the other side of the phone. Then, with a * Woof *, he shouted out.
