Chapter 196 Moving Operation
Around noon, Mr. and Mrs. Yuan finished their morning work and rushed home.
Upon opening the door, one is greeted by neatly stacked cardboard boxes in each room, transforming the once familiar home into a "moving house" atmosphere.
Seeing this, Yuan Bao quickly stepped forward and explained to his parents with a smile: "Dad, Mom, look, the new house is fully furnished. Our old furniture here has been used for many years. Not only is the style outdated, but it is also worn out. So let's not move it to the new house."
"I've sorted out all the daily necessities and clothes and packed them into these cardboard boxes. It'll be easy to move them over and unpack them later." Yuan Bao said, leading her parents around the room to check the boxes, pointing to each one and explaining the contents in detail.
Yuan Bao paused briefly, then remembered something and said seriously, "By the way, my grandparents will be moving in with us later, and I was thinking that we need a large color TV in the living room."
When we get together, we watch TV and chat, which makes it more lively.
I'll buy the TV this afternoon. As for the other things, we can add them gradually as needed after we move in. What do you two think?
Mr. Yuan nodded slightly, his eyes full of approval: "Baby, you've thought of everything. It's really time to get rid of this old furniture. A new home means a new look, so let's bring some commonly used and meaningful items with us."
He raised his hand and touched his chin, thought for a moment, and then said, "I wholeheartedly support buying a big color TV. Your grandparents love to watch TV programs after dinner, and they will definitely be happy to have a big color TV."
Yuan's mother smiled broadly and gently patted Yuan Bao's shoulder: "Daughter, your arrangements are so thoughtful. You've thought of everything before us. Moving to a new house is already busy enough. If we also have to move all this old furniture over, we'll have to clean it up. It'll be such a hassle."
A hint of tenderness flashed in Yuan's mother's eyes, and her gaze towards Yuan Bao was full of pride. "As for buying the color TV, we'll do it your way. You pick one with a nice design and good quality. Your grandparents will definitely be happy."
Mr. Yuan added, "Okay, let's go to the electronics store after get off work this afternoon and pick out the most suitable one."
In a few days, your mom and I will make another list to see what items we urgently need for the new house, and we'll buy them all at once.
"Honey, thanks to you, the move went smoothly and efficiently."
"Hehehe! That's right, your daughter is very capable!" Yuan Bao replied to her father smugly.
In the evening, the family went to the electronics store and picked out a large color TV. They arranged a delivery time and then went home to continue preparing.
The next morning, before the sun had completely dispelled the chill of the early morning, Yuan Bao asked his older brother to go to the new house and open the door to wait for him.
We agreed on it the night before last; the house here is small, so there's no need for me to come and help.
My uncles and aunts will help take my grandparents to their new house a little later and settle them in.
A short while later, the sound of a truck and a car reversing came from afar.
Looking out the window, Yuan Bao saw Manager Li, dressed in neat work clothes, walking ahead with high spirits, followed by nearly ten workers in uniform. Their steps were steady, and their eyes revealed professionalism and competence.
A clean and tidy medium-sized truck was parked downstairs, its rear door wide open, as if announcing the start of an efficient moving operation.
Yuan Bao hurried downstairs to greet him. Manager Li bowed slightly and said politely, "Ms. Yuan, hello! We've arrived at the agreed time to help with the move."
Yuan Bao responded with a smile, "Manager Li, thank you for your hard work."
The workers sprang into action, skillfully loading cardboard boxes onto the truck with swift and methodical movements.
For more valuable or fragile items, the workers are extra careful, first wrapping them in layers of thick foam paper, and then gently placing them in specially made wooden boxes to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Manager Li was busy at work, giving the workers clear and concise instructions from time to time. "Be careful with that box containing the porcelain, handle it gently."
His voice was steady and powerful, making the entire moving process seem orderly and efficient.
Mr. and Mrs. Yuan were also helping out. They organized some temporarily needed items and couldn't help but nod in praise as they watched the workers' professional operation.
Aunt Yuan said with emotion, "Thanks to your thoughtfulness, we really don't know how busy we would have been."
Manager Li responded with a smile: "Auntie, you're too kind. This is what we should do."
Mr. Chen specifically instructed that arrangements must be made well, and more manpower should be sent to help your family move into your new home easily and smoothly.
Moving is hard work, and all the workers in our company are strong, which is perfect.
With everyone working together, all the household items were loaded onto the vehicle in just one hour.
After Manager Li confirmed everything was correct, he said to Yuan Bao's family, "Ms. Yuan, everything has been loaded onto the truck. We're heading to our new home on Wenti Road now."
"Okay, Manager Li, you guys go ahead first. My brother is already waiting over there. We'll be right there too. Thanks!" Yuan Bao responded loudly, his voice filled with joy.
When Yuan Bao and his parents arrived at the courtyard, his uncle's family and his aunt had just brought his maternal grandparents over.
Manager Li has already led the workers to move all the cardboard boxes and miscellaneous items from the truck to the yard, and they will be moved to their respective rooms later.
Here, my little cousin was running around the house and yard like a happy little deer, eager to help, but he made a mistake in his haste.
He spotted a cardboard box labeled "Miscellaneous Items" and volunteered to load it onto the truck.
The box doesn't look big, but it's filled with model ornaments that Bao Guo has collected over the years, and it's quite heavy.
My cousin's face turned red, and he hugged the box tightly with both hands. His short legs moved quickly, but he stumbled and fell face-first into the mud with a "thud".
The box wasn't damaged, but my cousin was lying on the ground, looking quite comical, like a flattened toad.
He looked up, a hint of grievance in his eyes, and muttered innocently, "Why is this box so heavy!"
This caused everyone present to burst into laughter. Yuan Bao quickly ran over, helping his cousin up while jokingly saying, "You're trying to move a 'mountain'!"
With many people working together, the moving work progressed very smoothly, and soon all the items were safely placed in their respective rooms.
Yuan Baohe and his family were filled with gratitude.
With sincere gratitude in his eyes, Yuan Bao spoke first: "Manager Li, and all the masters, thank you so much for today! If it weren't for your help, we really don't know how long we would have been busy."
Mr. and Mrs. Yuan nodded repeatedly and said enthusiastically, "Yes, yes, it's all thanks to your professionalism and hard work. Thank you all for your hard work!"
"Why don't we all stay for a meal and have a good chat? It'll be a way for us to express our goodwill." Mr. Yuan said, gesturing an invitation, while Mrs. Yuan looked at everyone expectantly.
Manager Li smiled and politely waved his hand, declining the invitation, saying, "Uncle, Aunt, Ms. Yuan, thank you so much for your kind invitation, but we have other tasks to attend to at our company, so it's really inconvenient for us to stay."
We're truly happy that the move went smoothly and that you're satisfied. If you need any help in the future, please don't hesitate to contact me. Here's my business card; please keep it safe.
As he spoke, Manager Li took out a business card from his pocket, handed it to Mr. Yuan with both hands, and then led the workers onto the car in an orderly manner before slowly driving away.
