Chapter 364: Going to the Noodle Shop to Work Is Not Okay
Peanuts, melon seeds and oranges were placed on the shelf of the baking basket in front of the lounge chair.
Bao Pandi was very rude. He grabbed two handfuls of peanuts and melon seeds and stuffed them into his son Yu Zhuang's hands. He also took a few oranges, peeled them and ate them.
"This orange is quite sweet. Xiaojuan, you should try it too." Bao Pandi took an orange and gave it to his second daughter-in-law.
Jiang Xiaojuan took the orange and stared at the TV intently.
"Pooh..." Yu Zhuang spat out the melon seed shells far away.
"Dad, don't spit the melon seed shells. Throw them in the trash can." Yu Jianshe pushed the wooden garbage aside.
Bao Pandi threw the orange peels into the trash can, glanced at Yu Hui, who was peeling oranges to feed Beibei, and said sarcastically, "We country people just throw them on the ground, and we do the same in the city. But you guys are different. After moving from the country to the city, you all imitate the city people and use trash cans."
Gu Qiuyan frowned and glared at Bao Pandi, thinking to herself, "Is this old woman hinting at my parents pretending to be nice?"
Just as she was about to explode, she heard her father calmly say, "Aunt, this is called adapting to local customs and keeping up with the times."
"Now the country is calling on everyone to pay attention to hygiene, courtesy and civility. Although we all come from the countryside, we must also respond to the country's call."
"The garbage is thrown on the ground, which looks dirty and unhygienic. If you throw it in the trash can, you can just take the trash can out and empty it. It also saves the trouble of sweeping the floor every day."
Their family actually didn't have a trash can before. It was only after he came back from Beijing that they started using a trash can at home.
At first, my family members were a little uncomfortable with it, but over time, they got used to it and felt that throwing garbage into the trash can was more convenient and cleaner.
"Now that you've moved to the city, you too must keep up with the times. You can't let the city people think that we, the peasant comrades who came from the countryside, are backward and bring shame to our peasant class."
The corner of Bao Pandi's mouth twitched. This Gu Huai was a man who was really good at talking. He talked so much just because he said one sentence.
"We must go in." Bao Pandi said, spitting the orange seeds into his hand and throwing them into the trash can.
After watching TV quietly for a while, Bao Pandi pointed at the heroine and complained: "This woman is really restless. A woman, instead of marrying, having children and serving her husband, she goes to study medicine."
"That's right, I don't want such a restless woman." Yu Zhuang shook his head in disgust.
Gu Qiuyan rolled her eyes at Yu Zhuang. "Does she even think highly of you? And you're still looking down on her?"
"What do you mean by restless? They're responding to the call of the nation's leaders and going to the commune to study medicine and contribute to rural healthcare."
"You say that people who respond to the call of national leaders and study medicine are restless. Who are you questioning?"
Gu Huai frowned, "Aunt, although it's not like it was a few years ago, you still have to be careful with your words. You should know that words can cause trouble. Don't let them affect Old Yu."
Bao Pandi didn't take Gu Qiuyan's words seriously, but after hearing Gu Huai's serious words, his face changed. He seemed to remember those chaotic years and became panicked.
"I, I don't mean that. I just have a bad mouth, little knowledge, and I don't think before I speak." Bao Pandi said as he slapped his mouth twice.
"Don't tell anyone."
If outsiders knew about this and it really affected her family's Yu Qiang, it would be disastrous.
Gu Huai said, "Old Yu and I have such a good relationship, we definitely won't tell anyone. But this is the military compound, and everyone here is a soldier or his family. You can run into a leader's family or a leader every three steps. You really have to be careful what you say and do."
There was an element of scaring Bao Panddi and the others in his words. Why did he want to scare them? Because their words were so annoying.
Scare them and make them keep their mouths shut.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Bao Pandi nodded hurriedly, "We will definitely pay attention."
Yu Zhuang also shut his mouth.
"Hmm." Yu Xiaofu, the child in Jiang Juan's arms, hummed and twisted in her arms.
"Don't move." Jiang Juan frowned and patted her son in her arms for disturbing her watching TV.
Yu Hui frowned and reminded, "Could it be that the child wants to poop?"
When Beibei was still unable to speak, he would do this when he wanted to poop.
"Don't just watch TV, take care of the child's poop and pee too." Yu Zhuang said to Jiang Juan.
The latter glared at him impatiently, took off the child's pants, and grabbed the child's legs to help him clean up his feces and urinate.
Bao Pandi put the trash can under the child's butt and said, "Put it in the trash can."
"It's so smelly in the trash can." Yu Lixin frowned, "Mom, take Xiaofu back to the toilet at home to poop."
These two days at home, my mother has been cleaning up Xiaofu's poop and pee anytime and anywhere, making the house stink. She doesn't clean up after she's done, and asks my mother to clean up for her. Now she's still doing this at someone else's house.
How can a grown man be so impolite?
Bao Pandi: "Oh, it's the same if you poop in the trash can. Just take it out and dump it out."
"No," Yu Hui said bluntly, "Then we still have to clean the trash can. My toilet is right next to the kitchen. Please take the child to the toilet to clean up."
Since the host said so, even though Jiang Juan was reluctant, she still took the child out.
Yu Jianshe was afraid that she would go to the wrong place, so he took her to the bathroom.
Bao Pandi curled his lips and said, "It's just a trash can. It's not a big deal. Why do you have to go to the toilet to clean the child's feces and urine?"
She suddenly remembered that she had come here for another important matter. Although she was very dissatisfied with Yu Hui, she smiled and said, "By the way, Xiao Yu, I heard from Qian Lan that your noodle shop will open tomorrow, right?"
"Yeah." Yu Hui responded indifferently, and guessed what she wanted to say.
"You guys will open tomorrow and business will definitely be good. I'm afraid we'll be too busy to handle it. It just so happens that our Xiaojuan has nothing to do at home, so let her go and help you tomorrow."
Gu Qiuyan glanced at the young aunt sitting next to her and asked with her eyes, "What do you mean, old lady?" The latter shook her head.
"Thank you for your kindness, Auntie, but it's not necessary. Our noodle shop is so small that even if it's busy, three people are enough. Besides, it would be embarrassing for us to ask your daughter-in-law to help us for free."
Bao Pandi: “…”
Who said it was free help? I said I was helping, but Yu Hui really thought it was a help, so I didn't need to pay?
"If you feel embarrassed, just give her 20 yuan a month." Bao Pandi said with a smile.
"Didn't you say you wanted to help? Why do you want to be paid again?" Gu Qiuyan asked in confusion.
Bao Pandi smiled and said, "Isn't it because your mother is embarrassed that our Xiaojuan is helping out for nothing?"
"My aunt said that we don't need her help. We have enough manpower and it would be embarrassing to ask her to help for nothing. Grandma Bao, you don't look older than my mother-in-law, so why can't you hear people talking clearly?" Gu Qiuyan said bluntly.
Bao Pandi's face darkened, and the corners of his mouth drooped. "Xiao Yu, let me be frank. I want our Xiao Juan to work in the noodle shop."
Yu Hui: "Since you've said it so frankly, I'll be frank too. The noodle shop has enough staff and is not short of people. It's not okay for Jiang Juan to work there."
