Chapter 45 Who wants a sewing machine!



The main quest is also released at this time: Build a chicken coop or livestock shed and raise at least 3 animals. Quest reward: 15 strawberry seeds.

Hidden Quest: Find Lewis's lost shorts. Quest Reward: Star Fruit x1.

Star Fruit? This is a Star Fruit!

This stuff permanently increases your stamina bar when you eat it in the game, but I wonder what kind of chemical reaction it will cause on a fat person?

This year is the Year of the Snake (Yi Si year), which belongs to the element of metal in the Five Elements theory. It signifies wealth, rationality, and etiquette.

The new year brings new beginnings, and the Hongxing Factory was bustling with activity as soon as it reopened after the Spring Festival.

Early this morning, Lao Wang led everyone in reviewing last year, looking ahead to this year, and put forward five requirements for the work ahead.

The fat man stood listlessly in the line, extremely unaccustomed to the fact that the Spring Festival holiday was only 3 days long.

Having just celebrated the Spring Festival, the employees are generally quite full, so preparing food today might be a bit tricky.

If we make it too bland, the manual laborers will complain; if we make it too greasy, the office workers will criticize us.

After the meeting, Old Wang frowned and called Sha Zhu and Fatty over, asking them, "What about lunch today?"

Sha Zhu immediately shifted the blame: "Don't ask me. I'm just an ordinary cook now. Whatever you say goes. I'll just drink it."

Old Wang was secretly annoyed and looked to the fat man for help.

The fat man said, "Master, the first meal at work should be a bit more substantial. Take out a few eggs and make a green pepper and egg sauce, focusing on the spiciness; then make a refreshing vegetable stew, what do you think?"

Old Wang couldn't think of anything better, so he had no choice but to follow suit.

During the morning break, the fat man went to Deputy Factory Director Li's office.

Li Huaide was in a good mood today and was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper when he saw that it was Fatty. He didn't stand on ceremony with him and said, "Come and sit down, pour yourself some tea."

The fat man knew his superiors well. He diluted the water for Deputy Factory Director Li before standing aside and saying, "Boss, I'm here today to submit my marriage application."

Upon hearing this, Li Huaide put down his newspaper and said in surprise, "It's been decided so quickly?"

"My family arranged the marriage during the Chinese New Year."

In this era, there were three documents required for marriage registration. One was a marriage application form, which required detailed information about Fatty and Yu Li's personal and family circumstances; another was a statement from the Red Star Factory agreeing to Fatty's marriage application; and the third was a letter of introduction used to process the marriage formalities.

Fatty plans to keep these three documents as treasures. These old items will serve as proof of his journey through this world, and also as a memento of his marriage with Yu Li.

Li Huaide changed the subject, asking, "What are we having for lunch today?"

"A dish of green pepper and egg sauce, featuring a spicy flavor; plus a mixed vegetable dish with a rich and flavorful broth."

Li Huaide nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said to the fat man, "You joined the factory last September, right?"

The fat man took a cigarette and lit it for him: "You're right, it'll be almost half a year."

Li Huaide said with a smile, "You've made great progress, a lot. Both the class monitor and the canteen manager think you're a real talent. Even I feel like we hit it off immediately; we get along really well. Come visit me more often, and feel free to come to me if you have any difficulties..."

That old fox, so he wanted him to take sides.

He had said this to countless other people, but the fat man just took it as a joke and didn't take it to heart at all.

Li Huaide's words also had another layer of meaning: he was implying that Fatty was quite capable, but had some problems in handling relationships with colleagues, especially with the matter of Sha Zhu, which caused him some trouble.

The fat man stuck to his old routine: "I listen to the boss in everything. I always ask for the boss's opinion first, and I do whatever the boss says!"

There was another half-sentence that the fat man didn't say aloud. That was, "Since the leader hasn't said anything, I'll stop here for now."

Deputy Factory Director Li was very satisfied with the fat man's attitude. He stood up, walked to the drawer, and took out a few tickets: "Worried about it? Take these, don't be shy!"

The fat man looked and saw that there were sugar coupons and peanut coupons too. Li Huaide was really considerate...

Old Chen and Zhou Haiqin had been searching everywhere these days, but they were still missing something. Now, they have it all at once.

As he was leaving, Deputy Factory Director Li smiled and said to the fat man, "Hey kid, remember to give me some wedding candy later!"

"..."

After leaving the office, the fat man held Yu Li's hand with one hand and carried the bright red marriage certificate in the other. The two headed straight for Wangfujing Street.

On the bus, Yu Li couldn't help but say to the fat man, "Let's just walk there, why waste time like this?"

This girl is still so down-to-earth even after getting married.

When the bus arrived at the station, the fat man presented Yu Li with a difficult "two-choice" dilemma on the platform: "a, I'll buy you some clothes. b, I'll buy you a pair of red leather shoes."

Yu Li hurriedly said, "I just don't have feet that can wear leather shoes. I can't even walk in leather shoes!"

The fat man shrugged: "Alright then, we can only choose A."

He looks absolutely irritating.

Even after entering the mall, Yu Li, still in a daze, hadn't realized what was happening.

Upon arriving at the clothing counter, the fat man immediately spotted a gray women's top with a small lapel, only to find it cost 13.9 yuan.

Just as he was about to take out his money, Yu Li firmly objected: "It's too expensive and too gaudy."

Is this what you call glamorous? By this standard, even the grandma outfits on Pinduoduo in another world are more glamorous than this...

No matter how much the fat man tried to persuade her, Yu Li insisted. She argued that it would be better to just tear off two feet of cloth, which she could make herself.

The fat man slapped his forehead: "The Flying Man brand sewing machine costs 150 yuan, and you need a receipt. I can't afford that."

Yu Li stomped her foot in anger: "Who asked you for a sewing machine!"

The fat man's family had already prepared "four ones" for him: a double bed, a thermos, a washbasin with the character "囍" on it, and a spittoon.

The fat guy was so enraged by what he saw that he started swearing!

Imagine another world where the bride price is 88,000 yuan, gold jewelry is over 40,000 yuan, wedding banquet and car fleet is over 30,000 yuan, and a house is 1.5 million yuan...

He cursed angrily, "Fuck it!"

The next day, the fat man led Yu Li into the courtyard house for the first time.

When Yan Bugui saw Yu Li, his heart skipped a beat, as if he were losing something important.

He stepped forward reluctantly and asked, "Fatty, what's this?"

"Oh, this is my wife, we've already registered our marriage. Come on, Uncle, have some wedding candy."

After saying that, he grabbed a handful of wedding candy for Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui discovered that there were times when he received something but couldn't feel happy about it.

He returned to the house listlessly and put the candy on the table.

Yan Jiecheng was the first to reach out and grab it: "Candy!"
