Chapter 242 Chapter 242 Heavy Fog

"Honey, I passed!"

An excited voice could be heard in a small dormitory on the fifth underground floor, and Zong Kangping's face was full of smiles.

He waved the employment contract in black and white in his hand. "I ranked third in this practical exam. I can start work the day after tomorrow. My internship salary is 15 points per day, paid bi-weekly. Lunch and dinner are included."

"After 30 days of work, you can apply for regular employment. The regular salary is 20 points per day, and you can also get seven eggs per week."

Two meals are provided and eggs are provided as a bonus, which means that all the salary can be saved. This treatment is very generous.

Upon hearing the good news, Zhang Shuhui happily hugged her husband and said, "Honey, I knew you could do it!"

The couple hugged each other tightly, invisible pink bubbles lingering around. Suddenly, a little head popped out and made a face: "Mom and Dad, shame shame shame~"

Zong Kangping: ...

Zhang Shuhui: …

You idiot, do you deserve a beating again?

The two of them jumped back as if struck by electricity. Zong Kangping turned and glared at Zong Yipeng, shaking the egg in his other hand: "Shame on you, Zong Yipeng, you don't want to eat eggs anymore?"

Zong Yipeng: "Dad, I want to eat eggs!"

Zong Kangping rolled his eyes: "You wish, you want to eat eggs? Eat your ass."

Zhang Shuhui blushed, "Alright, alright, why are you arguing with a child? He's still young and doesn't understand."

Zong Kangping continued to play the good cop: "He's already five years old and still young. If you don't take care of him, he'll make a scene. Zong Yipeng, listen carefully, you won't get any eggs today."

Zong Yipeng became anxious.

He quickly climbed out of bed using his hands and knees, hugged his father's thighs and admitted his mistake: "Dad, I was wrong. I love you the most. I want to eat eggs."

Zong Kangping decided to teach his son a lesson, so he simply looked away and ignored him.

Zhang Lingjia slowly put the racing car and small building blocks on the bed into the storage box, then slowly got out of bed and took her father's hand. "Dad, Mom, after dinner, I want to go to the underground park to play."

The underground park is a newly built leisure park in the shelter. Within less than three days of its opening, it has replaced the trading market and become the main place for people to take a walk and relax.

The reason is very simple.

The height from the ceiling to the ground of the underground park is three and a half meters, making it the highest floor in the shelter.

Not only is the space spacious and covers a large area, but there are also many flowers and plants dotted around, creating an lush greenery that brightens the eyes of people who have been staying underground for a long time without seeing the sun.

In contrast, there is a naughty monkey. For his well-behaved and sensible daughter, Zong Kangping would even pick stars and dig the moon.

He agreed immediately: "Okay."

The naughty monkey Zong Yipeng continued to make devilish noises: "I want to eat eggs, I want to eat eggs, wuwuwuwu..."

Seeing that his parents ignored him, the naughty Zong Yipeng tried to lie down and roll around. Zhang Shuhui immediately glared at him: "Zong Yipeng, just lie down and try!"

Zong Yipeng was so frightened that he dared not move.

Zhang Shuhui walked up angrily, grabbed her son's clothes and spanked him hard on the butt, making a loud and crisp sound.

"Mom, stop hitting me, Mom!"

“Wow wow——”

Zong Yipeng was beaten so badly that he screamed like a ghost. If there were others present, they would probably think that he was severely abused.

“Crack.”

The dormitory door opened from the outside, and a crying little cannonball suddenly rushed up and hugged He Junxia: "Grandpa, save me, my mother is going to beat me to death, wuwuwu, wuwuwu..."

He Junxia looked at Zhang Shuhui: "What's wrong?"

Zhang Shuhui was about to complain, but suddenly fell silent. How could she have the nerve to tell her father-in-law about the couple's affairs?

Zong Kangping coughed lightly and said, "Pengpeng was disobedient and wanted to roll on the ground, so I beat him up."

Before He Junxia could ask about the specific incident of his disobedience, Zong Kangping continued, "Dad, I passed the exam and will be working at the farm the day after tomorrow. Thanks to you teaching me those steps at home, I got two correct."

He Juanxia smiled lightly: "That's great, let's go out and celebrate today, I'll treat you."

After eating the construction site's communal meals with withheld ingredients for so long, his taste buds have become dulled.

"Okay, let's go out for dinner today."

Zong Yipeng jumped for joy, then turned around and made a face at his father: "Huh, Dad, I don't care about your eggs."

Okay, you’re bolder now that you have grandpa’s support.

Zong Kangping smiled coldly: "Okay, from now on you won't get any eggs, you won't be able to eat any."

Zong Yipeng: O!O

Zong Yipeng:QWQ

Zong Yipeng, overjoyed, tried to complain: "Grandpa, Dad bullied me and didn't let me eat eggs."

He Junxia said kindly, "If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it. You don't want Daddy's eggs anyway. Shuhui, don't cook Pengpeng's eggs in the future."

Zhang Shuhui said loudly: "Okay, I can cook one less egg every day, and the family can save money."

Zong Yipeng was suddenly struck by lightning.

He didn't expect that even his grandfather would stand on his father's side.

Didn’t they say he was grandpa’s favorite grandson?!

Zong Yipeng burst into tears, big tears gushing out of his eyes, forming a river that could not be wiped away.

"I want to eat eggs, woo woo woo, Dad, I want to eat eggs, burp, woo woo woo, Mom, boil eggs for me..."

The child was crying and making a fuss, and his words were incoherent and incomprehensible.

However, the three adults present remained indifferent.

If you indulge the child any more, he will fly into the sky. It's time to teach him a lesson.

As for Zhang Lingjia, the only sister who could become an ally, she was sitting quietly by the bed waiting for her mother to braid her hair. She had no time to care about her brother.

Zong Yipeng was left alone.

"By the way, Dad, why are you back so early today? It's not time for dinner yet."

Zong Kangping remembered that when he left the examination room, he looked at the clock and saw that the hour hand was pointing to the number four, which meant there was still more than an hour before dinner at six o'clock.

He Junxia: "The kitchen has a new supervisor."

Zong Kangping understood immediately

Wherever there is money, there is corruption. This kind of thing is like rats and cockroaches in the gutter, which can never be killed or eliminated.

In just the short half month that he worked part-time on the construction site, he experienced three small changes to the cafeteria - the free seaweed egg drop soup was cancelled, boiled eggs were replaced with fried eggs, and the number of soups and dishes increased significantly.

They are simply finding various ways to deduct workers' food.

Just don’t do it!

"Wuwuwu, Dad, I was wrong, please don't ignore me, Dad, Mom, Grandpa, wuwuwu..."

After wiping away his tears, Zong Yipeng's eyes were still tearful.

Zhang Shuhui asked, "What did you do wrong?"

Zong Yipeng sobbed: "I shouldn't say that Mom and Dad are embarrassed, I shouldn't say that I don't want Dad's eggs."

Zhang Shuhui: "Anything else?"

Zong Yipeng raised his head nervously: "And... and..."

what else?

He doesn’t know, ahhhh.

Zhang Lingjia stepped forward and quietly reminded him, "Brother, don't roll on the ground."

Zong Yipeng: "And you can't roll on the ground!"

Now it’s finally gone.

No, that's all, but Zhang Shuhui still squatted down and pinched her son's face: "Why do you want to roll on the ground?"

Their family has never had the habit of letting their children throw tantrums.

Zong Yipeng: "Song Tianbao would roll on the ground whenever he wanted to eat something, and then he could eat something delicious."

Zhang Shu frowned.

The Song Tianbao that Zong Yipeng mentioned is the little grandson of the next-door dormitory. He has been spoiled by his family and has a very domineering and overbearing personality.

Not only does he bully his skinny sister, he also bullies other children, definitely bringing honor to the family.

She never let her two children play with Song Tianbao, but she didn't expect that her youngest son would be influenced by them.

No wonder Meng's mother moved three times in ancient times.

If it weren't for the recent increase in the number of new people joining the shelter and the shortage of housing,

Zhang Shuhui grew angrier and angrier as she thought about it. She grabbed her son's hand and slapped it several times: "You do whatever others do. Are you trying to be a shrewd imitator?"

"Other families are their own families. Let me tell you, we don't have that kind of overbearing and rude kid. If you try to imitate him again, I'll beat you to death."

Zong Yipeng shook his head desperately: "I don't want to learn anymore."

That's about right.

Zhang Shuhui stood up and said, "Let's go out for dinner. Wipe the water off your eyes."

Zong Yipeng: “Yeah.”

Zong Yipeng instantly regained his lively and energetic appearance, indeed he is a child with terrifying energy.

"Grandpa, what are we having for dinner? I want two big meat buns!"

To this day, Zong Yipeng still remembers the meat buns he ate on the first day.

He Junxia smiled and said, "Okay, eat two. Jia Jia, order whatever you want, Grandpa will treat you."

Zhang Lingjia tilted his head and thought for a moment: "I want to eat sweet and sour pork and drink a cup of soy milk."

Zong Yipeng added: "I want to drink soy milk too."

He Junxia smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll buy them all for you."

Zhang Shuhui and Zong Kangping held hands and listened to the conversation between the three generations of grandfather and grandson, with a faint smile on their faces.

Even though the world is full of troubles and disasters, it is a blessing and a happiness for a family to be together safely and healthily.

Unfortunately, Zong Yipeng didn’t get to eat the big meat bun after all.

The bun shop closed because it was sold out.

Looking at her distraught son, Zhang Shuhui asked in confusion, "Business is so good today. I remember it used to take until around 8 or 9 o'clock to sell out?"

Although the meat buns that cost 3 points each are a best-selling food for the people as stipulated by the government, and each person is limited to purchasing two per day, the price is not expensive but not cheap either. However, most people who are short of money still prefer to buy the large steamed buns that cost 1.5 points each.

It’s not easy to earn points these days.

A passing woman said, "That's right. East Lake is surrounded by a giant tentacle monster, and everyone in that area has come to our shelter. Over 2,000 people have come."
