Chapter 248 Grandma Hu is gone
Sister Chen's eyes were a little complicated, "Why, Xiao Jiang, don't you know?"
After asking, she lowered her head and smiled again, "Oh, I told you, you all moved away, of course I don't know, Aunt Hu is gone."
Jiang Qing's face turned pale, "What?"
"Just half a month ago, she had a heart attack and was found a day later. They said someone called her but couldn't get through."
"how come?"
"I heard that, I also heard that, I don't know if it's true or not, but they said Aunt Hu has always been ill, and her children don't want to take care of her, so they arranged for her to live in the suburbs. The cost of living in Jiangcheng is so high, and her children are married and have their own families, raising children, and each has their own difficulties..."
When Sister Chen said this, her eyes also flashed with embarrassment. "We outsiders don't know the details, but anyway... he's gone. He's gone. His heart was not well."
Jiang Qing's tears welled up in her eyes. "No way, Aunt Hu has always been in good health."
"A few old ladies in the community told me that he originally said he wouldn't live long, so this is considered okay."
Jiang Qing didn't pay much attention to what Sister Chen said later, but Song Wenbin could see that she was in a bad mood.
Jiang Qing had just returned to the city center and was busy adapting to his past life.
Pottery, flower arranging, playing cards, window shopping...
She did not miss anything and kept in touch with Grandma Hu, but since they no longer lived together, they had fewer topics to talk about.
In the past, we would call each other to buy groceries, cook, make cakes and snacks together, and we had endless topics to talk about. But once we separate, I don’t know what to talk about.
During the last phone call, Grandma Hu asked her, "Xiao Jiang, when will you come back? Let me know in advance when you and your family come back next time, and I will cook fish for you."
"Okay, Aunt Hu..."
While playing mahjong, Jiang Qing said, "I'll call you next time I get home. It might be difficult to wait until everyone is free."
"You can come after get off work, just let us know in advance."
"Okay, okay."
"Xiao Jiang, I miss you a little bit. Now that you've left, the room next door is empty. I'm a little scared to be alone at night."
"How could that be, Aunt Hu? I'll come to see you when I'm free. Don't think too much."
"I missed you, Xiao Jiang."
"I miss you too. I will definitely come to see you when I am free!"
At that time, Jiang Qing was playing cards and was very busy hanging up the phone.
She never imagined that this would be her last phone call with Grandma Hu.
She hugged Song Tuantuan and cried in the car. Song Wenbin comforted her, "Many people are just passers-by, just a passer-by you meet in your life."
"Shut up, what do you know?"
Jiang Qing inexplicably thought of Xu Yi's grandmother. She had promised Xu Yi's grandmother that she would take good care of her after bringing her to the city.
I don’t know if the old lady would agree if she knew about the current situation.
The more Jiang Qing thought about it, the more he felt that he might have let her down, so he made some chicken soup in the afternoon and went to the studio.
She was holding Tuantuan and carrying a bucket of chicken soup. Because she had just cried, Jiang Qing looked a little haggard.
"Aunt……"
"Let her do her work, Moyu. Tell her to drink this when she's done."
"This is……"
"I made her chicken soup."
"Sister-in-law is pregnant?"
Song Yuqian came over and said, "No way, Tuantuan is not even one year old."
"You can't drink chicken soup if you're not pregnant?"
Jiang Qing hugged Song Tuantuan, "Yuqian, don't always bully your sister-in-law. Your sister-in-law has no other family, only us, do you understand?"
Song Yuqian was puzzled when they suddenly talked about this heavy topic. "I know. You've said it so many times."
Jiang Qing carried Song Tuantuan downstairs. Not long after, Song Yuqian received a message from Song Wenbin, "Grandma Hu is gone."
Song Yuqian almost forgot about this person and was stunned for several seconds. Grandma Hu.
Grandma Hu from the suburbs, our neighbor Grandma Hu, is gone?
No way, that old lady has always been in good health. She can run faster than a young person like her while carrying large and small bags.
Song Yuqian suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, and she felt uncomfortable.
There were still a few days left before the fashion competition in the city, and Xu Yi lost himself in the design drawings.
When it comes to design, there are times when inspiration suddenly bursts out, and there are also times when things suddenly become boring and tedious, and you feel like everything you draw is ugly.
From the early days of the studio to now, we started with everyday styles, then moved on to mass-customized workwear, and then to erotic designs.
There are very few designs that are very challenging.
The last untitled competition at the district level gave Xu Yi a lot of room to perform, but the value of this city-level competition is clearly far higher than that at the district level.
Jiangcheng is an international metropolis known for its prosperity and fashion. The aesthetic taste of Jiangcheng women is among the best in the country.
It is a big challenge for Xu Yi to create a design that will be accepted by the women in Jiangcheng.
"Sister-in-law, it's time for chicken soup."
Suddenly, a large jar of chicken soup was placed in front of her. Xu Yi was busy cooking, but when she smelled the greasy aroma of the chicken soup, she couldn't help but frown.
"This is……"
"My mother was worried that you didn't eat well, so she sent you a can of chicken soup to nourish your body."
Xu Yi nodded, and Song Yuqian asked again, "Can you finish it by yourself?"
"Can't finish it."
"Then I..."
Before Song Yuqian finished speaking, Xu Yi said to Qin Moyu, "Momo, come and drink chicken soup together."
Song Yuqian: ...
"Black chicken soup?"
"Yes, it seems so. Come here and drink with us."
Song Yuqian went out silently. Xu Yi filled a bowl for Qin Moyu and took out a small bowl from the disinfection cabinet. "Where is Yuqian?"
"I don't know. I was here just now."
Qin Moyu didn't hesitate and took a deep breath, "It smells so good... delicious."
"If you like it, eat more. Actually, her cooking wasn't very good before. She learned it later when she came to the suburbs."
Xu Yi took a bite and found the taste a bit bland. "Mo Mo, the competition is about to start. I feel a little unsure and panic."
"What are you panicking about?"
“I’m afraid of not getting a good ranking, and I’m also afraid of being schemed against.”
Qin Moyu drank a spoonful of soup and asked, "Are you afraid of embarrassing Song Yanming?"
Xu Yi was hit on the point and nodded directly, "I always feel that my abilities are far inferior."
"No way."
"I want to find someone to tutor me."
The most suitable person is Zhou Zhiyin, but Zhou Zhiyin will also participate in this city-level competition. It is not appropriate to ask her competitor for advice.
What's more, now, many things about the relationship between Zhou Zhiyin and Yang Kun are unclear.
After thinking for a while, Qin Moyu said, "If you get tired of drawing, just look at more."
Qin Moyu felt that Xu Yi simply had too little experience, did too much and saw too little, and had reached a bottleneck period where his creative inspiration had dried up.
After drinking the chicken soup in the afternoon, Qin Moyu did nothing but go back to organize all the design manuscripts she had made since she started working in this industry, including some out-of-print designs that she had created and that she had always treasured.
The things were at Qin's house, so it would not be a good idea for her to go there rashly, so she called Gu Beicheng to escort her.
