Chapter 73: Stand Up for Your Sweetheart

"Xia Liang, come here and take a look."

Ning Zhiyuan's voice was still cold. Upon hearing that, Xia Liang took a few steps forward and saw him taking notes.

“Are you doing statistics?”

Xia Liang took a look and thought that she was good at this.

When we first started, we were short of funds and couldn’t hire anyone, including accountants, because we didn’t have that much of a salary budget.

At that time, Xia Liang was doing the work of several people alone. In the beginning, she was the one who recorded and managed the company's accounts.

"Well, you would?"

Ning Zhiyuan was also unsure. He knew Xia Liang had been to high school, but high schools don't teach them how to keep accounts. It was very difficult for him to do it himself. He recorded everything, but it was very troublesome to find it.

"Can."

"Then you try it!"

Hearing what Xia Liang said, Ning Zhiyuan did not doubt it and stood up directly, giving his seat to Xia Liang.

Xia Liang looked at him suspiciously: "Ning Zhiyuan, do you believe me?"

No matter what time it is, bookkeeping is crucial, and usually only someone you trust can do it. Does Ning Zhiyuan trust her so much?

"Um."

"By the way, let's also tally up their work points."

"After you finish the accounts, you can have time to do your own things."

He almost fainted after just one day of memorizing.

"real?"

Xia Liang thought that she would have to lean against the reservoir for a long time in the future and could only read at night, but after only a few hours of doing it, such a good thing happened?

Xia Liang didn't believe Ning Zhiyuan if he didn't take care of her. This man is not bad. He knows to keep good things for her.

She picked up the account book that Ning Zhiyuan had written down before, her brows furrowed:

"It seems like you've recorded everything, but it's too troublesome to find. I'm going to record it again, separate it all into different categories, and hand it over to the warehouse staff, so it'll be easy to find later."

Ning Zhiyuan nodded. This was what he wanted, but unfortunately he couldn't do it.

"By the way, there are a lot of people here, and we need someone who is diligent and reliable to serve as the food manager. Do you have any recommendations?"

Ning Zhiyuan had only been in Yangliu Village for a short time, and finding someone to cook was a good job, so he gave this opportunity to Xia Liang.

"Yes, Auntie Li is good."

Aunt Li is the village chief's wife. Ning Zhiyuan has lived in the village chief's home for some time. He nodded:

"Go and tell her now and ride your bike back."

Xia Liang was grateful in her heart, she knew that Ning Zhiyuan was taking care of her.

"Thank you."

The man said nothing, but he did not forget to instruct: "Finish this account book as soon as possible."

Xia Liang nodded quickly, and when she went back to tell Aunt Li, she was also very happy.

She just said that she liked doing this job. It was just cooking three meals for twenty or so people, so it wasn't that tiring.

Xia Liang took Aunt Li to the reservoir. Aunt Li went to work in the kitchen that had just been built, and Xia Liang went back to do the accounting.

When work was about to end in the afternoon, Yang Xiaohong curiously asked Xia Liang why she didn't go home.

Li Xue and the others also pricked up their ears. Xia Liang just smiled and didn't say what he was doing.

The next day, some of the educated youths found out. Yang Hongmei, Li Xue and Xia Jing were all very angry. Not only them, but also the educated youths from other villages were not happy!

"That's really too much. Why are you giving all the easy jobs to Xia Liang?"

Yang Hongmei grumbled in dissatisfaction, glanced at Xia Jing on the side, and sneered: "Your sister used to love you the most, why didn't she give you such a good thing?"

"I……"

Xia Jing pouted in grievance. She also wanted an easy job, but she was not familiar with the two soldiers.

"Calm down, don't be sad."

Su Yu was from the neighboring Liujiazhuang. The two villages were not far from each other, about five or six miles away. He came to Yangliu Village to play during his break.

Xia Jing has a good figure, is not bad looking, and speaks with a sweet voice. When he looks at her, her watery eyes are particularly alluring. Su Yu fell in love with her at first sight.

"Su Yu, I..."

When Xia Jing saw Su Yu, she felt her nose sore. When Su Yu came to the village, he tried hard to please her. She knew that Su Yu liked her, but she liked Zhou Hao more.

"Jingjing, did your sister bully you again?"

Seeing his sweetheart looking aggrieved, Su Yu felt extremely distressed.

Xia Jing has indeed lost some weight recently, and her breasts, which were once so attractive, have shrunk. It was difficult for Su Yu to look away from Xia Jing. Among so many educated youth, he had never seen anyone who was better developed than Xia Jing.

Of course, he didn't know about what happened in Yangliu Village. The two villages were quite far apart, and no one would go to his village to spread rumors.

"I...Su Yu, I'm fine, I'm fine."

Xia Jing said this in a wronged tone, while Li Xue pouted: "Humph, you just feel relieved when you see Xia Liang's situation. She didn't give in to you, so you feel bad."

"Jingjing, is that so?" Su Yu's eyes became even colder when he heard this.

"My sister must have her own reasons."

Xia Jing deliberately didn't explain clearly. Su Yu had a bad temper, and she knew how to say it in a way that would make the man want to protect her.

"Xia Liang is your sister, how could she do that?"

"Just wait and see. I'll give you her job."

"Su Yu, you..."

Xia Jing tried to stop Su Yu, but she was a step too slow and Su Yu had already disappeared.

He knew that Xia Liang was in the command office, in the tent at the entrance where they came.

"Xia Liang!"

Su Yu rushed in without thinking. Because they had just started working, Xia Liang was still checking the accounts from last night!

Ning Zhiyuan was watching from the side, standing straight beside her.

Su Yu didn't expect that there was someone else here. He knew Ning Zhiyuan, who was said to be the person in charge of excavating the ancient tomb this time.

"Comrade..."

When Su Yu saw Ning Zhiyuan, he was a little frightened.

Ning Zhiyuan looked over with cold eyes, and Su Yu shrank his neck in fear.

Xia Liang also raised her head and saw Su Yu, with a mocking smile on her face. Later, she said that Su Yu was Xia Jing's most typical bootlicker. This person was particularly self-righteous.

She remembered that one time when he came to their village, Xia Jing just covered her stomach and said she was not full, so he ran to Xia Liang and snatched Xia Liang's enameled porcelain pot.

The food was given to Xia Jing, and she even said Xia Liang was shameless and didn't know how to take care of her sister. Xia Jing couldn't even eat enough? How could she have the nerve to eat?

At that time, Xia Liang did not resist. She did not talk about her food and gave half of it to Xia Jing every time.

Everyone in Yangliu Village knew about this, and she didn't believe that Su Yu didn't know about it.

This kind of man is the most annoying. If you want to be gentle and considerate to women, if you want to be generous, that's fine, but just use your own things.

You use other people's things to do good deeds, and in the end you are still the one who is right. How can Su Yu be so shameless?

Seeing him coming over at this time, Xia Liang guessed that it must be because of Xia Jing again.

"What's up?"

Ning Zhiyuan's voice was extremely cold and he looked at Su Yu with an unfriendly look, which frightened him so much that his legs went weak.
