Chapter 464 Bedtime Story

Chapter 464 Bedtime Story
On Saturday, after lunch, Zhou Jing went out to buy a stroller and a crib for his unborn baby. When he arrived at a baby products store, Zhou Jing went straight to the point and carefully looked at the various styles of cribs and strollers.

"Hello sir, how old is the baby you are buying this for?"

The proprietress said in a sweet voice.

"Does the baby carriage need to refer to age?"

It was the first time Zhou Jing bought something like this and he didn’t quite understand it.

"Yes, for example, babies under two years old are not proficient in walking and sleep more. This sleeping basket is more suitable. Babies can sleep anytime and anywhere. It also has a mosquito net and sunshade. In summer, whether at home or outside, you don't have to worry about your baby being bitten by mosquitoes. This gauze curtain is made of pure cotton, has no odor, and does not contain any harmful gases."

"The armrests of the car can be folded, which makes it more convenient to carry in the car when going out."

"These styles will work when the baby is a little older."

The proprietress introduced patiently.

"Then what kind of materials are the cars made of?"

Zhou Jing set his sights on a sleeping basket as his child’s first car.

"There are aluminum alloy, wood, and carbon fiber. The aluminum alloy armrest is retractable and very light. The carbon fiber armrest is foldable and also very light. Aluminum alloy and carbon fiber are more suitable for going out. At home, solid wood ones are more stable and will not shake too much when the baby moves, making the baby uncomfortable."

The proprietress demonstrated and explained at the same time.

"One solid wood and one carbon fiber, both the best."

Zhou Jing placed the order without saying much and then looked at the crib.

The best wooden cradle costs more than 800 yuan, and the best carbon fiber one costs more than 4,000 yuan. This amount of money is not worth mentioning to Zhou Jing, and he is too lazy to bargain.

When the proprietress heard this, she introduced the crib even more enthusiastically.

The crib will only be used at home, so there is no need to consider its lightness. Zhou Jing only has two requirements: safety and comfort. He chose solid wood, which is also the best imported beech wood in the store. The price is less than fifteen hundred yuan. It has four universal wheels, so it is very convenient to move around the house. It is relatively spacious and the child can sleep in it until the age of five or six.

The two cars and a bed cost more than 7,000 yuan in total. Zhou Jing walked around the store and looked at the dazzling array of toys. He wanted to buy everything he saw, so he bought it. He didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl, so he bought some simple toys first.

“Is there a wooden horse?”

Zhou Jing shook the plastic wooden horse on the ground and asked.

"Yes, this one is made of the same material as the bed, both are imported beech wood, with a backrest and guardrail to prevent the baby from falling, and the base is designed as a tumbler, so it's not easy for the baby to fall when sitting on it."

The proprietress was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She met a rich man today. He bought whatever he liked without bargaining. It was very refreshing to do business with such a person.

Zhou Jing took a look at the Trojan Horse and took it directly.

"I'll arrange for a truck to deliver the goods to your home, sir."

The boss's wife called her husband and asked him to drive the van to the store.

Zhou Jing looked on and bought some stuffed toys, toy cars, a tractor train, a rattle, a pedal piano and so on. The small toys alone filled a whole box, and together with the crib and the car, he spent less than ten thousand yuan in total.

The store delivered the goods to Zhou Jing's home, saving him the trouble of moving the items himself. Zhou Jing left his detailed address and went home first.

"Very attentive service. It looks like you bought a lot of things."

Gu Jia said to Zhou Jing who was returning home with a smile.

"Our children must have what other children have, and our family must also have what other children don't have."

Zhou Jing touched Gu Jia's belly and smiled.

"You will spoil the child. The tutor must listen to me."

Gu Jia thought that she had to establish her prestige as a tiger mom in the future and not just spoil her children blindly.

"Then it's up to you."

Zhou Jing would definitely not interfere with Gu Jia's education of the child. His pampering of the child is not without limits.

"Jiajia, do you want soy milk or porridge?"

Lunch was eaten early, and at around 1:00 p.m. Wu Suqin prepared to cook something.

"Just soy milk is fine. I'm not hungry at all. No need to cook. I'll have some fruit."

It was time for the five meals a day in the afternoon, but Gu Jia still didn’t eat.

"Then let's have breakfast for dinner. What would you two like to eat?"

Wu Suqin began to think about what to eat for dinner.

"Let's eat noodles."

Gu Jia didn’t want to eat anything in particular, nor did she want to make things more difficult for the cook.

Zhou Jing added: "Stewed noodles."

"Okay, was the kimchi a little too salty last time?"

Wu Suqin had a clear idea of ​​what to eat. It was still early to cook, so she went to the kitchen to make a jar of kimchi.

"almost."

Gu Jia said, pickles are just a small portion when eating a meal, so it doesn’t matter if they are a little salty.

The baby products store called Zhou Jing to tell them that they had entered the community. Zhou Jing went out to move the things and carried them up to the elevator in two batches.

"You bought so much, but you only have three cars?"

Gu Jia looked at the pile of things and said.

"This wooden bassinet is heavy for home use, this carbon fiber one is light for going out, and this one is a wooden horse."

The things were not needed now, so Zhou Jing moved them to the study to show them to Gu Jia.

He asked the boss to assemble the crib and put it in the corner of the study room. Zhou Jing didn't buy crib sheets, quilts, etc. today. He would wait for his mother-in-law to come and buy them together.

“Is this one more stable?”

Zhou Jing shook the basket of the wooden bassinet and said.

"Well, wooden ones are more comfortable to use at home. This wooden horse is so cute. I want to play with it too."

Gu Jia couldn't bend down, so she shook the wooden horse with her feet and smiled.

"You fell apart as soon as you fell down."

Zhou Jing opened the toy box and said.

"So many toys. You're such a good father for your first time."

Gu Jia picked up the rattle and shook it. It was fun. She had played with it when she was a child, and now her own children could play with it.

"Have you thought of a nickname yet?"

Zhou Jing felt a little guilty as he had been the father of Yang Wenwen's child for more than a year.

"No, how's Tuan Tuan?"

Gu Jia thought a lot, but was not very satisfied.

"It's better to call it porridge, millet porridge." Zhou Jing thought of one based on his own last name.

"Then porridge, porridge. I hope the little guy likes it."

Gu Jia thinks the porridge is delicious.

After tidying up the study, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia went to the bedroom. Gu Jia leaned on the bed with her hands on her stomach. Zhou Jing brought the fruit to the bed and ate it himself while giving it to Gu Jia.

"40 days left. Isn't it appropriate to travel far when the baby is one month old?"

Gu Jia opened the calendar and found that it was one day closer to the tenth day of the first lunar month. She felt more nervous than when she was counting down to the college entrance examination.

"Let's spend the full moon in BJ. When the weather warms up next year, we'll see if it's convenient to go back home."

Zhou Jing stopped working when the baby was one month old. It would be tiring for adults to travel from BJ to Tangdu or Yushi, let alone a baby.

"Let's keep it simple. Can your grandparents come?"

Before the baby was born, Gu Jia couldn't help but start thinking about the full moon.

"One of you can come, my parents or your parents can come, and the relatives will treat us when we get back."

Zhou Jing touched Gu Jia's belly and said.

Gu Jia nodded and said, "My bestie should give money as a gift. I gave money as a gift when their first child was one month old."

"Good girlfriend." Zhou Jing lowered his head and kissed Gu Jia's belly and said, "Do a checkup after the New Year's Day holiday, do a checkup before the New Year, and then wait for the birth."

"Just check it once before the New Year, and you don't need to check it after the New Year holiday."

With monthly checkups, all prenatal examination results were normal, so Gu Jia had nothing to worry about and just waited for the due date.

"Row."

After resting in the bedroom for a while, Zhou Jing went to the study, turned on the computer and checked his email. Some project teams of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. also worked overtime on weekends. It was not required by the company, but the team arranged the tasks on their own in order to complete the project ahead of schedule. The intensity of overtime was not high, and they only worked overtime sporadically on weekends.

The technical inspection of the Qingxian New City project has been completed, but the acceptance work is not over yet. Load testing will be carried out later, especially in hospitals. After the medical equipment is installed, a trial run will be carried out to test the stability of the power. Hospitals have many precision equipment and the requirements for power and network are higher than those in general places.

After dinner, Zhou Jing accompanied Gu Jia for a walk, and came back to wash Gu Jia's hair and give her a bath. The later Gu Jia's pregnancy got, the more careful Zhou Jing became. He specially laid anti-slip mats in the restroom, bathroom and toilet to prevent Gu Jia from having any accidents.

Gu Jia took off her clothes and sat on a chair. Zhou Jing adjusted the water temperature and wet her hair to wash it first. After washing her hair, he wiped it with a towel, wrapped it with a dry towel, and then took a shower.

After taking a shower, Zhou Jing helped Gu Jia back to the bedroom to rest, and went to the study to think about company matters.

Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. and Ideal Technology Co., Ltd. have been basically finalized. January marks the beginning of a new year. Zhou Jing is thinking about how to improve the efficiency of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. Ideal Technology Co., Ltd. will not make a profit in the short term. On the contrary, it may suffer losses for a long time. It needs to improve the efficiency of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. to make up for it.

The only way to quickly improve the efficiency of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. is to develop software. External projects can only be done step by step. There is no need to expand the scale of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. for the time being. It is better to set up a branch in Tangdu than to expand the scale of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd.

Zhou Jing sent the information of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. to Bai Xiyao, allowing Bai Xiyao time to register a branch in Tangdu and go through the formalities, rent and renovate an office building. After completing the formalities this year, she can directly recruit staff after the new year. Time is money, especially in the past two years, time is more valuable than gold.

Bai Xiyao: [I’m already looking for an office building. There is an office building for an entrepreneurial incubation project in the High-tech Zone. How many people do you need office space for?]

Zhou Jing: [How much does it cost to buy an office building in Tangdu for about 50 to 60 people? ]

Bai Xiyao: [If you want to buy, it is best to buy it in your personal name and rent it to a company. If you buy it in the name of a company, you have to pay taxes every year. If you buy a 2000 square meter house, you will need about million, and the down payment should not be less than %]

Zhou Jing: [You know a lot, so don’t rent it, just buy it]

Based on 10 million, 50% of the richest people only have about 5 million. Zhou Jing now has more than 500 million personal assets in the stock market. A few million is no big deal. Next year, Zhou Jing plans to buy an office building in BJ.

Bai Xiyao: [OK, in this case I will get it done as soon as possible and buy it in December. What about the staffing? ]

Zhou Jing: [The management will follow the organizational structure of BJ Company. You will serve as the general manager of Tangdu Company. Each of the administrative management, human resources and financial departments will recruit a supervisor with three to five years of work experience.]

[There will be one director each for the project department and the operations department, both of whom are at the technical engineer level. The project department will also need several capable programmers, and the ordinary programmers will need a group of experienced and a group of fresh graduates. The details will be announced at that time.]

Bai Xiyao: [Okay, can you transfer two key personnel to Tangdu? It would be best if you could send someone with technical skills and abilities to be the deputy manager. My software skills are OK at Bowei Network Technology Co., Ltd., but not good enough for a software company.]

Zhou Jing: [Sure, I'll find time to ask the people in Tangdu in the company]

After discussing with Bai Xiyao about buying an office building and a branch, Zhou Jing continued to think about how to increase the revenue of Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. starting from the first quarter. Apart from small games, all Zhou Jing could think of were some practical software. One problem was that smartphones were not yet popular, so many software had no place to go.

As for computer software, Zhou Jing previously planned a dating website called "Momo", which is almost developed and will be launched soon. Zhou Jing added some interesting functions and interactive games to the website, which caters to the preferences of young people today. It should attract a lot of users after it goes online. I wonder how its monetization ability is.

Now is not the time to enter the Internet industry. Newcomers who want to enter the Internet can only rely on the trend of the intelligent era.

Zhou Jing was busy in the study until after nine o'clock. He turned off the computer and went back to the bedroom. He looked at Gu Jia's water cup, took it to the kitchen to pour the water, poured a cup of soy milk for Gu Jia, and squeezed a cup of orange juice for himself, using the oranges that were naturally refrigerated by the window.

"Drink a sip."

Back in the bedroom, Zhou Jing handed the orange juice to Gu Jia.

"It's so cool."

The heater in the room was very hot. Gu Jia took a sip of orange juice and the cool feeling went straight to her soul.

"The good thing about being pregnant is that you don't have stomach aches every month, right?"

Zhou Jing took a sip of orange juice and said.

"Yes, I have forgotten what it feels like to have a period. Can you hear me, little one? This is the toy your dad bought for you."

Gu Jia stretched lazily, picked up the rattle that Zhou Jing bought today and shook it in front of her belly.

"Poke mom's belly when you hear it."

Zhou Jing finished the orange juice in one gulp, then lay down beside Gu Jia and looked at her stomach.

"The baby should be in this position, with the feet up here. A normal birth requires the head to be down. If you want a normal birth, the hospital should be able to adjust the fetal position in advance, and there should be no risk of a difficult birth."

What worries Gu Jia the most now is how to give birth when the time comes.

"Don't worry about it now. We'll see how things turn out. With today's medical technology, a caesarean section is just a minor operation."

Zhou Jing could understand Gu Jia's feelings. Like Zhou Jing, Gu Jia had never had an IV drip since birth, let alone surgery. Gu Jia would definitely be anxious about having surgery on her belly to give birth.

Gu Jia nodded, picked up the soy milk, drank it and prepared to go to bed.

Zhou Jing took the two people's cups to the kitchen to wash them, filled the thermos with half a pot of hot water and took it to the bedroom so that it would be more convenient to drink water when he was thirsty at night.

The kettle was brought to the bedroom, and Zhou Jing went to the bathroom to get a basin specially used by Gu Jia and brought it to the bedroom and placed it on the stool at the end of Gu Jia's bed. It was inconvenient for Gu Jia to get up at night because of her big belly, and she didn't need to get out of bed to pee. In fact, Gu Jia rarely got up at night, so the basin was usually not needed, but it was better to be prepared.

"It's okay, come up and sleep."

Gu Jia went back to her bed and lay down and said.

"Want to listen to Grimm's or Andersen's fairy tales?"

Zhou Jing drank a sip of water, turned off the light, and lay on his side facing Gu Jia. He picked up the learning machine and told fairy tales. He didn't know whether prenatal education was useful, but it would not do any harm.

"Let's tell a ghost story. It won't scare the little one. Let's tell something else, like read a novel."

Gu Jia prefers listening to Zhou Jing telling folk stories.

"Then read to you "The Overbearing President Falls in Love with Me."

Zhou Jing opened his phone and searched for novels oriented towards women.
