Chapter 119 Lou Jiafu leaves Yulongxuan

Lou Jiafu did not sleep all night, and he was restless, looking at his watch and waiting for seven o'clock.

Before seven o'clock, the phone rang. He immediately answered it and heard Caiyu's "Hello!"

His voice trembled: "What are you doing? Come back soon!"

"Are you free today? How about eight o'clock? You leave at nine o'clock, so I'll come to see you in an hour. I'll drop Xiaomin off at kindergarten and then I'll go find you."

"Cai Yu, please stop making trouble, okay? We have a good family, don't break it up! Okay?" Lou Jiafu said.

Pei Caiyu heard this and said, "If you can't talk calmly, then I can give you some time. After I report to the factory, we can make another appointment?"

"Just today, just today, I'll wait for you." Lou Jiafu was really anxious.

"You go downstairs."

"You don't even want to go home."

"Every time you solve the problems between us, it's very simple. You just push me to bed once and then think the problem is solved." Pei Caiyu said.

Lou Jiafu felt aggrieved: "What couple doesn't quarrel? Isn't it always quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed?"

"Problems are piling up. The strength difference between men and women is too big. I don't want to go on like this anymore." Pei Caiyu's voice was filled with sadness. She had had enough. "That's it. See you later."

After the call was hung up, Lou Jiafu hadn't slept all night. He had been under a lot of pressure recently and had a headache.

The chef’s body is full of smell from cooking, so taking a shower will make you feel refreshed.

He went into the bathroom to take a shower, but after taking a shower he found that there were no clothes in the bathroom. Over the years he never had to get clothes, and when he came back to take a shower, his clothes were there.

He came out wrapped in a bath towel and went to the room to look for clothes. He found that all the clothes of the three of them had been taken away. Caiyu was really determined to get a divorce.

Seeing that it was almost time, Lou Jiafu went downstairs and waited at the entrance of the corridor. After waiting for more than ten minutes, he saw Pei Caiyu coming over.

He ran over and said, "Caiyu, is there anything that can't be discussed between husband and wife? Do we have to get divorced?"

"Jiafu, have you ever thought that for so many years, you have only listened to yourself and never listened to a word from others? You complain that the master doesn't trust you, but what about you to the master? The master doesn't stop his apprentices from going out to find a job. After all, Brother Rong was favored by others, and the master encouraged him to go. You knew very well how Ding Shengqiang harmed the master, but you went to Ding Shengqiang and told me that the master didn't believe you. How do you want him to believe you? What about me? As long as I say a few more words, you say that I am comparing myself with Xuelian. But what is the truth? When you were in Baohualou, what you liked to say most was that you made me look good in front of Xuelian. Now that you are doing much worse than Asong, you think I am jealous of Xuelian." Pei Caiyu looked at him, "I envy, but I am not jealous."

"I have a bad heart?"

"You are narrow-minded. You have never thought about how much effort the master has put into you, nor how much I have paid for you. You only know how to complain that the master does not trust you, and you only know how to say how tired you are to support the family." Pei Caiyu said, "In the future, you don't have to be so tired. I rented a house, found someone to help me take care of the children, and I also found a job. The two children are with me. You used to complain that the three of us mothers had to spend more than a thousand yuan a month, but now you don't have to. Just give me 800 yuan a month! That's enough for me. Is that okay?"

"I give you 800, and you raise two children by yourself? You want my children to beg for food with you?" Lou Jiafu reacted immediately, and he held Pei Caiyu's shoulders with both hands, "You are not being deceived, are you? There are many people out there who are recruiting workers with high salaries, but in fact they are deceiving women to become prostitutes, do you know that?"

Even though she knew that Lou Jiafu usually didn't care about the family affairs, he thought she was tricked into being a prostitute? Pei Caiyu was still shocked: "Lou Jiafu, is this how you see me? Do you think I'm stupid enough to be tricked into being a prostitute? I went to middle school and worked in an electronics factory. I was the foreman of the electronics factory production line. Let me tell you, I went to the Qingfu Garment Factory in Yau Tong and worked as a seamstress. In addition to the basic salary, they also had piece-rate bonuses. As long as I'm diligent, I happened to be promoted to foreman in the electronics factory because of my diligence, so I can definitely get a higher salary."

Qingfu is a garment factory owned by the Zhao family, the cotton spinning tycoon. It is a formal large factory and is completely different from those small workshops. She has already found a job!

Pei Caiyu got rid of him: "If you agree, we can find time to go to the law firm and entrust a divorce lawsuit. I don't want your alimony, I can support myself."

She doesn't even want alimony? How much does she want to get rid of him? Does she dislike him so much?

"Caiyu, can't I change my bad points?" Lou Jiafu held her with a sad face, "I'm having a hard time now, very hard, please, don't leave me. I lost the game yesterday, and I lost miserably. I'm lucky that I can stay in Yulongxuan until the end of the year. I still have to find a job, I..."

Yesterday, Jiafu called Asong and his wife to look for her. Early this morning, Xuelian came to her place and told her that Jiafu lost the competition yesterday. Ningning said that it was because Lou Jiafu met the successor of Lu's cuisine who went to Aocheng from the mainland.

Ever since he went to Yulongxuan, he came back either looking tired or scolding his boss or Lu Jinyong. She could also feel that he was under a lot of pressure.

I lay in bed, tossing and turning, thinking about the past few years, looking at the two children on the bed.

Thinking about the incident at Shenghua Building, he suddenly lost his job, and felt helpless. The first thing she thought of was to ask the master for help. She knew that the master was kind-hearted, and considering the years of master-disciple relationship and the sake of the child, he should let Jiafu return to Baohua Building. As long as Jiafu returned to Baohua Building, their family could be like before.

She shamelessly pushed Xiao Min to beg, and now she feels so ashamed when she thinks about it. How could she be so shameless?

After being married for many years, she didn't want him to be left with nowhere to go. Pei Caiyu sighed, "Sell the house. With this little money, you can buy a shop, five or six tables, and open a small restaurant like the master. Start by setting up a stall. You are a craftsman, and your situation is much better than mine. Just listen to the master, be fair, and have a conscience, and don't rush to make a lot of money, and you won't starve to death!"

When Lou Jiafu heard that she was still willing to consider him, he hugged her and said, "Caiyu, I will listen to you. I will open the store well, okay? From now on, we will live a down-to-earth life, okay?"

Pei Caiyu pushed him away and said, "You are no longer trustworthy. I am only telling you this because you are the father of these children.

After being pushed away by her and hearing her mention the child, Lou Jiafu asked, "Where is the child? You can't not let me see the child, right?"

Pei Caiyu looked at him and said, "When you are at home, how many times have you looked after the children? When you get up at nine in the morning, Xiao Min has already gone to kindergarten, and Xiao Yuan sits on the floor, you don't even bend over. When you come back at ten in the evening, the children are all asleep. When you are resting, you go out to eat and drink, and go to karaoke. Don't you think about when was the last time you held your child?"

Lou Jiafu stopped talking. He really couldn't remember anything.

Pei Caiyu said: "I will definitely show you the child. That's it, you should go to work, and I will go back too."

The moment Pei Caiyu turned around, she straightened her chest. Yesterday, she went to Qingfu Garment Factory, and the production supervisor, a woman in her forties, asked her if she had any experience. She also said that it was difficult for ordinary housewives to persist.

She told the other party that she entered the electronics factory at the age of sixteen and started as an online operator and rose to production foreman. She would issue material requisitions and liaise with the warehouse according to the tasks assigned by the supervisor. She would also manage a production line of ten people and complete her work on duty.

I had stopped working for eight years, but after entering the factory, I naturally thought about it again.

The older sister chatted with her for a while, and was very curious about why she wanted to work. She didn't want to say it, but then she thought it was nothing to be ashamed of. She said that she had mustered up the courage to divorce her husband, because she couldn't stand him saying that she was supported by him, and she wanted to support herself and her children.

The elder sister told her that the work in the ironing workshop was relatively easy, the workload in the sewing workshop was heavy but the salary was also high, and there were also jobs like thread trimming and packaging which required even less technical skills and thus the pay was even lower. She asked her which one she would choose?

She chose sewing. She also made clothes for her children at home, so she had the basics, and she also had plenty of money.

Lou Jiafu looked at his wife's back, then walked upstairs dejectedly and entered the house. It was already late, so he took his keys and helmet and rode his motorcycle to work.

My stomach growled on the way and I remembered that I had no appetite at noon because I lost the game yesterday. I also had no appetite in the afternoon because I was scolded by my boss. I also had no appetite when I came back and my wife was gone. Now I am hungry, but I still have no appetite.

As soon as Lou Jiafu entered Yulongxuan, he saw Guo Shijie's devilish face: "Chef Lou, I suspect you were sent by Baohualou to destroy Yulongxuan, right?"

Lou Jiafu didn't know what he was talking about, so he just waited quietly. Guo Shijie opened the freezer and pointed at the stock inside: "Look at the stock inside. When do you plan to eat these things?"

Lu Jinyong has been living a slacking life for a long time now. All the work in the kitchen has been thrown to him, causing all the people under him to live a slacking life.

Moreover, Yulongxuan was already plagued by problems before Lou Jiafu came in. When Ning Yan tried to operate it, he was beaten by Ning Yan and had no power to fight back.

Guo Shijie, who was at his wit's end, wanted to find his teacher Yue Baohua to follow Ning Yan's direction.

If he follows the master, he can still do it, but if he follows Yue Ning? How can he keep up?

These days, Yulongxuan has been in chaos. Just preparing ingredients is a headache for him. It is not like a normal restaurant, where there is a basic number of dishes every day, and then there will be some discrepancies. He has to consider what is popular in Ningyan now, and what the original customers of Yulongxuan want to eat.

The list of materials he wrote out was either too much or too little.

Now, Guo Shijie blames all these problems on himself.

Lou Jiafu glanced at Lu Jinyong who was enjoying the show and said, "Before I came in, what was the situation at Yulongxuan like? You didn't know? You came to me, aren't you desperate? On the one hand, you said you had to follow Ning Yan to cook, and on the other hand, you blamed me for not being able to sell the dishes."

Lou Jiafu, who never dared to refute him, actually got tough. Guo Shijie slammed the freezer shut and said, "Lou Jiafu, if you don't want to do this, get out!"

Caiyu's words were still ringing in her ears when Lou Jiafu said, "Tell the finance department that I will go and pay the wages."

Guo Shijie knew that Lu Jinyong was completely unreliable, and now only Lou Jiafu could be used. He hadn't even had time to find that young man. If Lou Jiafu left at this time, would Yulongxuan still be open?

"Where's your mortgage? How are you going to support your family?"

Lou Jiafu smiled bitterly: "My wife wants to divorce me, so I plan to sell the house. I will share the money with my wife, and then open a small restaurant. That's it, pay the bill!"

Guo Shijie was dumbfounded. He turned to look at Lu Jinyong, who took a step back...
