Gu Xia waited next to the fountain for a while and saw the uncle he saw yesterday coming.

Today he wore a white shirt and black pants, and his hair was combed well. He should have been dressed up when he went out to do business. However, the quality of the shirt and pants was not very good. The white shirts were washed yellow and the fabric was loose.

In the 1980s, it was really not easy for people to live in this way.

Seeing Gu Xia walk over, he quickly smiled and said, "I thought you wouldn't come. You trust me so much, thank you really."

Gu Man smiled and said, "If that's the case, I should thank you for helping me introduce my work."

"Don't be polite. Let's go, let's go to her house, I called in advance."

Gu Xia agreed and went to the house with him. On the way, the uncle introduced him to the basic situation of the old lady.

Su Juanhong is a very stubborn person. She is old and in poor health, but her temper is more popular than when she was young. She is even more strange after her husband passed away. Her daughter-in-law Sun Mei is a high school teacher and her son Lin Gang. She is currently working in the Labor Bureau. The couple have a good temper. The child is now in middle school. Because of her strange temper, she has been living in the school and lives at her grandma's house during holidays.

"When she was young, she was the workshop director and worked very seriously. She was the first to work hard, and she was a model worker every year. But her personality was too tough and her leader had been crying. She retired when she was old, but her style was still the same. Her family really couldn't stand it. Her son and daughter-in-law wanted to find a nanny. Don't worry, their family members are actually pretty good. They won't make things difficult for you."

Gu Xia nodded: "I understand."

"Well, if she speaks badly, don't mind holding on. She has such virtue. Even her grandson will curse when she thinks about it, and she won't remember it after it's scolding. She also asks people what they ask about crying. According to seniority, I call her an old aunt, and always scold me, saying that I'm a poor family begging for food. It was quite uncomfortable at first, but later I got used to it. As soon as she scolds people, I will pretend that I didn't hear it. Don't take it seriously either. Anyway, it's only one month, making money is important."

Gu Xia nodded and said, "I understand." She thought to herself, the old lady's life is very good, and the uncle lives poor, but she never thought of benefiting from it. The uncle is really a kind person.

The two of them talked and walked, and soon arrived in front of a small building.

From the outside, this building is much larger than Gu Yuanxing's house. It has gray-green exterior walls and many wires and telephone lines on it. This thing was a rare thing in the 1980s. It seems that the economic conditions for living here should be very good.

There were lots of broom plums and cockscombs in the flower bed below the community, and there was a security door downstairs. Unfortunately, the door lock was not working. The two of them went up to the third floor and the uncle knocked on the door, and someone opened the door immediately.

Sun Mei is a gentle middle-aged woman, pretty, wearing a floral skirt, and smiled and said, "Brother has come so early? You're so tired, please come in quickly. I'm the Gu Xia you mentioned. Looks like a good girl." She looked at Gu Xia for a moment. It seemed that this girl looked pretty good and honest. She was not the kind of evil way, so she felt relieved.

The uncle waved his hand and said, "I won't go in. I have to go to Lincheng to pick up goods. Gu Xia, you can try it. If it really doesn't work, don't force it." He said that, he was about to leave.

The woman smiled and said, "You are busy with yours. Thank you, come in quickly. Is your name Gu Xia?"

Gu Xia nodded and followed the woman in.

The room was covered with concrete floors. Gu Xia was quite embarrassed when changing shoes, and she had patches on her socks. However, life has not been good these days, and women didn't care even after seeing it.

The layout inside is similar to that of Gu Yuanxing’s. It is all about the same furniture, sofa, and kitchen style. The room is one-third larger than that of Gu’s family. It is very spacious, with bright and clean windows. There are a few pots of orchids on the windowsill. The woman asked Gu Xia to sit on the sofa and handed her a cup of tea. Gu Xia thanked her but didn’t drink it. She put it on the table.

Sun Mei pointed to the innermost door and whispered: "My husband is going to buy breakfast. My mother is not awake yet. If you can do this job for a month, I will give you forty yuan. You don't have to worry about us and we don't eat at home. You just need to take care of my mother for three meals a day and accompany the old lady to stroll. There is also a washing machine to wash clothes, so you don't have to worry about it. She has become more and more overworked recently. She often quarrels with her neighbors and scolds other people's children. We are really embarrassed... Alas!" Sun Mei had a headache and rubbed her forehead with her hands.

Gu Xia agreed and was very happy. The salary of forty a month was not small at that time. When she was handing out flyers in the mall, she also knew that this job was really hard to do.

At this time, the old lady woke up and shouted loudly in the next room: "Where is my medicine? I understand. You unfilial sons just hope that I will die quickly, right? You are all unfilial sons, and you will not have a good ending, and you will not die well!"

I started to curse in the morning, and I was very distorted.

Sun Mei said: "I'll go and greet the child, you go and see my mother." She hid after she finished speaking.

Gu Xia was a little nervous, so he took a deep breath first, then pushed the door open and went in.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the room in a mess. The area of ​​the room was quite large, but there were a lot of miscellaneous items, clothes, books, newspapers, and various medicine bottles piled up on the ground and on the table. The bed was messy, with at least four cups piled up.

The curtains were very thick and airtight. The room was dark and it was so hot that it was difficult to breathe.

A short, thin old lady was looking for medicine everywhere. She was wearing white short-sleeved shirts and floral pants underneath, with a serious face, muttering in her mouth: "Where is my medicine bottle? A bunch of unscrupulous things just want to poison me to death, right? I tell you, you let me die, but I just don't let you be proud! I have to live well. A bunch of...who are you?" She saw Gu Xia standing at the door, looking at her with some timidity, and felt a little annoyed for no reason.

"I understand, is this the nanny I found for me again? Because my daughter-in-law is too noble and I am too lazy to serve me, an immortal, so I found someone to come and treat me perfunctorily. I wish I had died early, right? Sun Mei, come out and tell me clearly, do you think so?" She said, then pulled her neck and shouted at the door.

Sun Mei probably had been used to it for a long time and hid in the house and couldn't come out.

Gu Xia looked around and started collecting things.
