Chapter 569: Family Tradition
Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei fed the child together and then got up.
Zhou Chenglei said, "You continue to sleep, I will go over first."
"No, I'm completely awake now. I can't fall asleep any more. I'll come back at noon and take a nap."
Today is the day when relatives and friends from Xu Ling's family come to Zhou Guodong's house to see the family tradition.
Jiang Xia heard from Xu Ling that she had more than a dozen uncles, aunts, cousins and so on.
Then at least two tables of banquets should be prepared.
And depending on the family tradition, the woman's relatives and friends will stay at the man's house for a day, so two meals will have to be prepared.
When I need help at home, Uncle Dong and Aunt Dong and their whole family will come to help and do their best.
There was no way Jiang Xia would go out late on a day like this.
Although she had to take care of triplets and could not help much, her presence or not was a matter of thought.
After hearing this, Zhou Chenglei did not insist.
The couple carried the child downstairs together.
After breakfast, the family pushed the triplets in a stroller to Zhou Guodong's house to help.
Jiang Xia took the two groupers that the dolphin had given him yesterday and two bottles of wine, and Zhou's mother also caught a large fan chicken and took it over.
When they arrived at Zhou Guodong's home, the triplets were handed over to Guangzongyaozu, Zhou Zhou and Zhou Ying for care.
After having a good sleep and a full meal, the three children can lie down and play by chewing their fingers for a while. With several older brothers and sisters holding rattles to coax them, they will not cry anymore.
Zhou Chenglei and Zhou Chengxin helped kill chickens, geese and ducks.
Tian Caihua and Zhou's mother washed vegetables together.
Jiang Xia’s cooking is delicious, so I’m responsible for preparing some cold dishes.
Aunt Dong and her two daughters-in-law were cutting vegetables and stewing braised pork in the kitchen.
Aunt Dong asked, "What time is it now? Why haven't Guodong and the others come back yet?"
Zhou Chengsen went out to sea to fish with Zhou Guodong and his two brothers at four o'clock to catch the seafood to be eaten today.
Jiang Xia glanced at his watch: "It's eight o'clock, it should be almost time."
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
A few people came back carrying several buckets of fish, shrimps and crabs, a bag of oysters and scallops, some conchs and a large jellyfish.
Zhou Guoxing and Zhou Guoye's wives hurried to kill the fish and process the jellyfish.
At about half past ten, people from the Xu family arrived.
After everyone greeted each other, Uncle Dong's family was busy greeting the future in-laws.
Jiang Xia and his family will help prepare lunch and other things.
Jiang Xia was making jellyfish salad. Xu Ling's aunt walked up to her and said with a smile, "Xiao Xia is making jellyfish salad?"
Jiang Xia smiled and replied, "Yes! Auntie, please go inside and sit down! The kitchen is hot."
"It's okay. I want to talk to you."
"I heard that you are building a factory. My daughter, my two daughters-in-law and I are all free. Xiaoxia, when your factory opens, can you arrange a job for us?"
Xu Ling now gets more than 100 yuan a month, including bonuses and overtime pay, and sometimes even 200 yuan.
This salary is so enviable! And Xu Ling's brother went out to sea with Xiao Xia's man and earned more.
Three hundred and sixty yuan per month, and I can take all kinds of seafood home every day.
In the past, Xu Ling's family had the lowest income among all the Xu brothers and sisters.
Now, with just the salary of the two siblings, they have suddenly become the family with the highest income.
I heard that Xu Ling’s mother and two younger sisters will also go to work in the factory. Wouldn’t the whole family earn thousands of yuan a month?
That's why Xu Ling's aunt had the nerve to come to Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia said without a single mistake: "The factory has not been built yet. It is estimated that it will be built next year. When the time comes to recruit people, you can go for interviews. Too many people have come to me now, and I am afraid that I have forgotten. When the time comes, you can ask Xu Ling when they are recruiting, and then go directly to the factory for interviews."
What Jiang Xia said was true. Now when she walks in the village, people often stop her. One says she wants to work in her factory, another says her daughter wants to go, and yet another says her niece wants to go.
They weren't very familiar people, so how could she remember so many of them?
She always asks everyone to go for an interview, and then she will post a recruitment notice in the village.
At that time, He Xinghuan and Aunt Fen will be responsible for recruiting. They will decide who to hire according to the formal interview process.
Jiang Xia was probably in Beijing at that time and couldn't care less about so many things.
Moreover, we will have to recruit dozens or even hundreds of people by then. Naturally, it is impossible to select all of them like we do now, where we pick those who we know well, are very diligent and efficient.
Anyway, she has already formulated rules and regulations for the factory, and the employees will just work according to them.
Xu Ling's aunt smiled and said okay, then walked away tactfully.
"Xiao Xia, ..." The eldest aunt left and the second aunt came.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Jiang Xia said the same thing again.
After the second aunt left, another aunt came. No matter who came, Jiang Xia said the same thing.
Let them go for the interview, whether they pass the interview or not is another matter.
Xu Ling's mother was extremely anxious when she saw her sisters-in-law coming to Jiang Xia one by one.
No wonder they were all so eager to come and see the family tradition, and were so generous, preparing a lot of things to bring over, including chickens and eggs.
So they were waiting here! Xu's mother was afraid that Jiang Xia would be unhappy, and then Xu Ling and Xu Yong would lose their jobs.
Xu Ling didn't come today. She found an opportunity to come to Jiang Xia and said anxiously, "Xiao Xia, I'm really sorry. I didn't know that my sister-in-law and the others would come to see you."
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, Auntie. The factory will indeed be hiring people, and I'm afraid we won't have enough! If there are people like Xu Ling who work diligently, carefully, cleanly and neatly, I would like you to introduce a few more to the factory."
…
In the evening, when Xu's mother returned home, she said to Xu Ling, "No wonder you said Xiao Xia is a very easy-going person. She is so rich and yet so easy-going, without any airs at all."
She just talked to Jiang Xia for a while and felt very comfortable getting along with her.
No wonder my daughter and son are so happy and can’t wait to go to work every day even though they are so tired after work.
*On August 25th, Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei were going to take their triplets to the city for a physical examination, and Zhou's mother was accompanying them.
Jiang Xia was driving, Zhou Chenglei was holding two children by himself, and his mother was holding one.
Jiang Xia didn't have enough strength to hold two children for more than an hour, so she drove.
Today, Jiang's father and Jiang Dong were waiting at the hospital gate early in the morning. Jiang's mother went to buy groceries, thinking that Jiang Xia and the others would bring the children home for lunch at noon.
Jiang Dong returned to Beijing the day after attending the full moon banquet. He had not yet finished his research project and had to prepare for exams to go abroad.
He just came back last night, specially coming back to accompany his sister to Beijing, and to spend a few days with his parents.
As soon as Zhou Chenglei got out of the car, Jiang Dong took one of the children from his arms, recognized them for a long time, and said with a smile: "This is my brother, right?"
Zhou Chenglei responded: "Yeah."
Father Jiang noticed at a glance that his daughter was thinner than the last time he saw her. It had only been a dozen days. "Is the child difficult to take care of?"
Jiang Xia smiled and shook his head: "It's not difficult! He's very easy to take care of. He'll play for a while after eating. Sometimes he'll fall asleep while playing without any need for coaxing."
Father Jiang looked at his daughter and his eyes were full of tenderness and doting when she mentioned the child.
He wanted to ask why Haodai was getting thinner and thinner? Zhou's mother was there, so Jiang's father didn't ask, so as not to embarrass Zhou's mother. He smiled and said, "It's good to be Haodai."
Sorry, there is only one update tonight! (/ω＼), I will make up for it tomorrow.
Some relatives brought their children to our house to play tonight and they stayed until quite late.
It disrupted my writing plan.
