Chapter 198 You are really well-informed
Li Caiyun smiled and pouted: "You just know how to make me happy."
Zhou Yong was indeed trying to make her happy, but compared with other women of the same age, Li Caiyun already looked very young.
This has to do with her living environment and family conditions.
She doesn't have to worry about financial matters at home. The children are taken care of by Zhang Guifang. They only have classes for half a year, and they have plenty of time to read and study. If the living conditions were poor, she would not be in this state.
"Are you happy then?"
Of course Li Caiyun was happy, after all, these words came from Zhou Yong's mouth.
The couple was hugging each other lovingly when they heard footsteps outside. Li Caiyun sat up with a start.
She straightened her clothes and looked out the window, and Zhou Yong slowly sat up.
When the couple saw who was coming, Zhou Yong turned around and got down.
"Lao Cao, when did you come back?"
The person who came was Cao Biao, and he also brought two bottles of good wine for Zhou Yong.
"I'll come to your house after I drop off my stuff."
As they were talking, the two men went into the east room, and Cao Biao placed the wine on the cabinet.
"Lao Cao, are you here to do some business? Or are you here to visit your family?"
Cao Biao bared his teeth and said with a grin: "Both sides..."
In 1976, Cao Biao, Xing Laoqi and Liu Dazhuang were transferred to work in the county police station.
After several years of hard work, Cao Biao won two second-class merits. Not only was he transferred to the Criminal Police Brigade as an exception, he also got the opportunity to become a regular employee.
The main purpose of his return this time was to retrieve files from the commune, where he wanted to bring his wife and children over.
The couple has been living apart for some years, and it is not right for them to continue like this.
Moreover, Cao Biao had found a job for Zhao Chunhua. After she went to the county town, she cooked in the canteen of the Criminal Police Brigade.
Zhou Yong patted Cao Biao's shoulder fiercely: "Old Cao, I will count on you from now on."
Cao Biao patted his chest and said proudly: "Don't worry, as long as I am here, no one will bully you..."
Zhou Yong believed this because he knew Cao Biao's character.
Moreover, Cao Biao planned to transfer Xing Laoqi and Liu Dazhuang over to the Criminal Police Brigade as soon as he had established a firm foothold in the Brigade.
But this matter cannot be rushed, it needs to be done step by step.
"I'm going home now. When I finish what I'm doing, we can have a drink..."
Zhou Yong sent him to the gate, and the two talked for a few more words before Cao Biao went home.
When Li Caiyun learned that Cao Biao was going to be converted to a regular employee, she was sincerely happy for him.
Becoming a regular employee means becoming a staff member and your salary and benefits will be increased.
"My sister-in-law is going to the city. Who will manage the farm?"
Zhou Yong pondered for a moment: "There are dozens of people in the farm, who can manage it?"
Li Caiyun glanced at Zhou Yong and said, "If my sister-in-law leaves, there will be a vacant job. How about letting Sister Xia take over?"
Zhou Yong raised his eyebrows secretly. He stared at his young wife and successfully made Li Caiyun feel uncomfortable.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Zhou Yong smiled and said, "If you want Sister Xia to work at the farm, just say it directly. Why are you beating around the bush?"
In fact, even if Zhao Chunhua didn't leave, there were four vacant jobs at the farm, and Zhou Yong had already planned to arrange Li Caixia to work there, but he forgot to say it.
Li Caiyun felt a little embarrassed when her little secret was exposed.
"I don't know how you plan to arrange your work in the future. If I don't speak tactfully, I'm afraid you will think too much..."
Li Caiyun never interfered in Zhou Yong's work. She always just did her job well and helped her husband run the brick factory.
If Li Caixia didn't have a good relationship with her, Li Caiyun would definitely not meddle in her affairs.
Although it was just a matter of Zhou Yong's words to assign work to someone, as a wife, she knew very well how difficult it was for her husband outside.
Although Zhou Yong seems very successful outside and everyone is polite to him, only Li Caiyun knows that her man sometimes cannot sleep at night because of work.
What Li Caiyun didn't know was that Zhou Yong's insomnia at night was somewhat related to the work of the brigade, but not much.
In addition to thinking about work, he also had to think about the investment business with Chen Pingliang and Wei Guoan, as well as the matter between him and Guo Xiangqian...
In short, Zhou Yong had a lot of things on his mind, and he never told anyone about these things.
After hearing what his young wife said, Zhou Yong smiled faintly: "You are quite considerate."
Li Caiyun glared at Zhou Yong: "Considerate? Why does that sound so awkward?"
Zhou Yong laughed softly, Li Caiyun curled her lips, and the couple chatted occasionally.
When it was time to cook, Li Caiyun went to cook while Zhou Yong lit the stove in the west room and then helped to light the fire.
Li Caiyun took out a piece of sauerkraut from the sauerkraut jar, washed it, and cut it into shreds.
She washed the chopped sauerkraut twice, squeezed out the water and set aside for later use.
With a creaking sound——
Zhang Guifang came back with her four children.
The four children went into the house to play, and Zhang Guifang took over the cooking job.
"Mom, I can just cook, why can't you trust me?"
Zhang Guifang pushed Li Caiyun aside. She tied an apron around her neck and said, "When mom is gone, you have to cook even if you don't want to..."
As long as Zhang Guifang is at home, she rarely lets Li Caiyun cook.
In her words, when she was gone, the job of cooking would naturally fall on Li Caiyun.
"Mom, what are you talking about?"
Zhang Guifang cooked skillfully: "Mom is just telling the truth."
Li Caiyun didn't like to hear such words because she was afraid of that day coming.
The mother and daughter, one was making fire and the other was cooking, while Zhou Yong picked up the shoulder pole and bucket to fetch water.
On the way to fetch water, Zhou Yong met Zhou Ling.
"Brother, wait for me."
Zhou Yong frowned slightly and stopped, while Zhou Ling came to her elder brother carrying a shoulder pole and a bucket.
"Why did you make me wait for you?"
Zhou Yong had a sullen face. Zhou Ling glanced at her elder brother's expression and secretly curled her lips.
"I can call you if I'm fine?"
Zhou Yong turned his head to look at his sister, too lazy to pay attention to her, and walked forward with big strides.
He had long legs and took a big step. Although Zhou Ling's legs were not short, they could not be compared with his elder brother's.
Zhou Ling stamped her feet in anger and chased after him muttering to herself.
"Brother, wait a minute, I have something to tell you."
Zhou Yong frowned, Zhou Ling trotted after him and grabbed her elder brother.
"What are you going to do?"
Zhou Ling bit her lip as she panted slightly. She glanced at Zhou Yong and said, "Brother, I heard that four people left the farm. Can I go to work there?"
"You are very well-informed."
Zhou Ling smiled, but Zhou Yong did not answer her question.
Seeing this, Zhou Ling continued: "Brother, I beg you, just give me a chance, I promise to work hard and will not embarrass you..."
Zhou Yong took a deep look at Zhou Ling who was promoting herself, and walked forward without saying a word.
Zhou Ling sighed and jogged after him again.
There are more than 3,000 people in Huaixi Village, but there are only so many jobs. If Zhou Ling wants to get a job, she can only fight for the opportunity herself.
Although she knew the chance was very slim, she still wanted to give it a try.
Because through her observation of Zhou Yong over the past few years, she found that although Zhou Yong was still cold to her, in fact, there had been subtle changes in the relationship between them.
