After waiting for several seconds, he finally recovered from his loss. His eyes suddenly widened and his light shone.
He rushed back a few steps happily, then stopped hastily, clasped his hands tightly together, and stood there and said, "Sure, it's okay. I've been waiting for you to say that."
Xu Qingzhi smiled and explained sincerely, "It's my fault. We agreed to give it a three-day trial, but I got busy and forgot about it."
"Qingzhi, look how formal you are being. I'll come over tomorrow at the same time as the past few days. Will breakfast still be provided?" Zhou Zhou asked.
"Bao, now that you're here, I guarantee you'll have breakfast." Wang Yanmei shouted with a smile from the kitchen.
"Okay, uncle, aunt, Qingzhi, I'll go back first and come back tomorrow." Zhou Zhou's face was full of excitement. He waved his hand and walked towards home.
As soon as he got home, three bowls of dishes were already placed on the square table. Seeing him come back, Zhou Liang went to serve the rice so that it would still be hot when it came out of the pot.
A bowl of fried beans, a bowl of tofu with chopped green onions, and a bowl of tomato and egg soup is dinner for a family of three.
Zhou Zhou was already hungry, so he quickly ate a mouthful of rice. He had been working all afternoon, and although he would take a break in between, he was a young man, so he ate a lot and consumed a lot, so he got hungry quickly.
After taking a few bites of the meal and filling his stomach, he couldn't wait to take out the remaining wages from his pocket, handed the stack of red bills forward, and stuffed it into his father's pocket.
"Dad, take this. This is the money I earned these days."
Except sometimes when he was really hungry, he would go to the store to buy a bottle of Coke or the cheapest beer to satisfy his craving, otherwise he would buy some biscuits or candies and put them in his pocket to replenish them when he was hungry while working. He did not spend a penny of the rest of the money.
Zhou Liang pushed the money back and confiscated it. "You took the money yourself. After what happened in Kyoto, you came back without a penny. Dad knows that."
Zhou Zhou's eyes darkened. He didn't want to talk about what happened in Kyoto, and he didn't want to take the money. He said stubbornly, "Dad, take it and give our family a better life. Look, there is no meat in these dishes. Go to the market tomorrow and buy a few pounds of fresh pork and ribs. I want to eat meat. A meal without meat won't taste good."
That's what he said.
Xu Fuchun, who had been silent all this time, paused slightly with his trembling hands.
How could she not understand that her son didn't just want to eat meat, he wanted to improve their lives.
Zhou Liang sighed, picked out the dozens of change and pushed them over. He counted them and found that there were more than a dozen red bills. He had an idea in his mind and took the money. He said, "Okay, spend this change. If you don't have enough, ask Dad for more. I'll save the rest for you."
My parents have been saving money for their entire lives, but they haven't saved much, and their health has been ruined.
Zhou Liang didn't say anything else, neither agreeing nor refusing, but he thought silently that he had to save the money, in case his son had an emergency in the future and they, as parents, couldn't help, the money would be useful later.
Zhou Zhou was full after eating a bowl of rice. He put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth while saying, "By the way, those small workers won't go tomorrow. I still have to go. Qingzhi said he would give me 3,000 a month and I can rest two days a week."
Zhou Liang was a little surprised that his son, who had always been unreliable, was actually favored by Qing Zhi and was willing to be recruited by him.
Xu Fuchun was not surprised. Although she didn't want to trouble Fuqiang, she knew in her heart that Fuqiang's family were kind-hearted and would help if they could, but they would also care about not hurting her face and would not do it so obviously.
It was as if she didn't agree with her man taking Zhou Zhou to ask if they could go to Fu Qiang's farm to work, just because she didn't want to trouble Fu Qiang's family.
Qingzhi did not agree immediately, but instead gave a three-day trial period.
In fact, I just want Zhou Zhou to feel that this is something he has worked hard for, and not because of his relatives' face.
However, it is impossible for her to completely ignore the face of her relatives. After all, she is Qing Zhi's biological sister-in-law.
Zhou Liang, who was standing by, said in surprise, "Didn't Qingzhi say that he would give you a three-day probation period? How come it's been more than ten days before you were hired as a regular employee? I've been feeling very nervous, worried that this might not work out for you."
Zhou Zhou shook his head and said, "Then I don't know."
Only Xu Fuchun looked at the stack of red banknotes on the table and said slowly: "The laborers are paid every day, and the regular workers are paid once a month."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole family looked at the stack of banknotes and understood.
Zhou Zhou finally realized that it was not as Qingzhi said that she was too busy to remember, but she knew about his family's predicament and wanted him to get some money for emergency first.
His eyes were firm, and he spoke to his parents as if swearing, "Mom and Dad, don't worry, I work very hard at my uncle's farm, and I will never cheat or do anything shady. I will be a good person in the future! The money I earn will be managed by Dad. Although it's not much, you can spend it however you want."
And, he would never let Qingzhi down! Absolutely not!
