Chapter 238 Is this the rule for city dwellers to find a partner?
"Are you really going to call them back to work tomorrow?" Gao Zhi asked.
"No need." Cheng Hui said, "Practice your skills for a few more days. When you have figured out the recipe, call the people back. Then you will only be responsible for the ingredients."
Gao Zhi was immediately happy. This job was easy yet important! This is her ideal job, and her sister-in-law is so nice to her!
"Sister-in-law, let's go home and I'll wash your feet!" she said.
Cheng Hui smiled and went back to the guesthouse with her.
Then I cooked a few side dishes and made dumplings myself.
When Cheng Rui came back, the three of them sat together and happily ate and celebrated the New Year.
Cheng Rui suddenly thought of Zuo Lan: "She is still on the train now, and I don't know what she is eating."
Cheng Hui looked at him and realized that it was indeed very difficult to forget someone.
He now remembered Zuo Lan's kindness again.
Cheng Hui said: "I hope her parents won't be angry with you for all the New Year's gifts. Oh, that's not right. Zuo Lan ran away without telling anyone. It's actually none of your business."
However, Cheng Rui remembered that Zuo Lan was unhappy with his assignment.
He gave so much, but she was still not happy and wanted more...
The straight guy has no concept of the daily necessities of life. He has eaten whatever is available at home since he was a child. He is not greedy and does not insist on eating fine grains. Later, he ate in the school cafeteria, and he had even less concept of the matter.
So he only gave his father a bag of flour and two packs of cigarettes, and he still felt guilty towards his father.
And about the bicycle, he saw through it and didn't give it to her, and she was really angry.
He suddenly thought of a word and wanted to apply it to Zuo Lan, but felt it was not a good idea. But....it really looks alike!
Seeing his unhappy expression, Cheng Hui smiled: "Why are you unhappy? Did she really ask you for money? If you don't have money to give her in the future, she won't break up with you, right?"
"What?" Gao Zhi exclaimed, "We haven't even gotten married yet, and she wants money? She'll break up if I don't give her money? What kind of person is this? In our village, this is marriage fraud! Don't even think about finding a good partner in the future."
Cheng Rui immediately looked at her and wanted to say something to her, but didn't know what to say.
Gao Zhi asked Cheng Hui with an innocent and pleasant look on his face: "Sister-in-law, is this the rule for you city people to find a partner? That's great!
"I'm going to find a city date in the future. I'm asking him for money every day! If he doesn't give me money, I'll break up with him and find another one!"
She asked Cheng Rui again with a curious look on her face: "Brother Cheng, what is the standard for asking for money? How often do you ask for it? How much is appropriate for each time?"
Cheng Hui couldn't help it and her shoulders shrugged with laughter.
Her sister-in-law is so talented!
Cheng Rui looked embarrassed and felt indescribable in his heart.
"Brother Cheng, I'm serious!" Gao Zhi stared with his innocent big eyes, waiting for his answer.
Cheng Rui couldn't tell whether she was trying to tease him or she really didn't understand.
Maybe I really don’t understand! After all, Gao Zhi is still young, and she has lived in the countryside since she was a child. She just moved to the city with her sister recently, and she has never seen city people dating like this!
He persuaded himself and said seriously, "That's not how city people date. Normally, you can't ask for money from the other party unless you need it urgently."
"Really?" Gao Zhi's eyes were still innocent.
Cheng Rui suddenly felt guilty. He recalled his experience with Zuo Lan and found that this statement was not true at all.
"Well, of course it's true! And even if you need money urgently, you can't ask your partner for money. You still have a brother and sister-in-law. If you really need money, come to us, don't look for your partner."
He paused and said, "A good girl should not spend her partner's money before marriage, otherwise she will be looked down upon. And if she spends, she must pay it back!"
What should I do if I feel more and more uncomfortable the more I talk about it?
This is what ordinary people would teach their daughters!
How come he forgot about it?
He forgot, Zuo Lan also forgot...
"You lied to me!" Gao Zhi said, "I heard that Sister Zuo spent a lot of your money, and you two are not married. Isn't she a good girl?"
"Xiaozhi!" Cheng Hui said, "Your elder brother Cheng is right. When you date someone in the future, you must not..."
Huh? That doesn’t seem right. This way we can’t tell whether the other person is a stingy person or not.
Some men don't give their wives a penny to spend. What's the use of having them?
"In the future when you are in a relationship, if the other person invites you to dinner, you should treat the other person to dinner as well. It should be give and take, and don't take advantage of the other person. If you try to take advantage of something, you will suffer a great loss." Cheng Hui said.
"Oh, listen to my sister-in-law!" Gao Zhi said.
The two looked at each other and continued eating.
Cheng Rui felt that the delicious food just now was no longer fragrant...
He didn't feel sorry for Zuo Lan whether she could have a good meal on the train during the New Year's Eve. He unconsciously counted in his mind how much money he had given to Zuo Lan over the years and what he had spent it on.
Clothes, shoes, watches, meals, movies, miscellaneous items...none of them is urgent.
But if we use the standards of a younger sister, Zuo Lan has never invited him back once.
Of course he doesn't spend women's money! How can you let a woman treat you? However, Zuo Lan never gave him a gift, not even a handkerchief...
No, I can’t reminisce anymore, otherwise I won’t be able to get through this year!
Cheng Hui looked at Gao Zhi with appreciation.
Gao Zhi was immediately happier, even happier than when he had squeezed out Cheng Rui.
Sister-in-law is on her side again!
.......
The next morning, the three of them went to work. Cheng Rui continued to draw the blueprints, and Gao Zhi continued to study the formula.
Cheng Hui went to the laboratory to direct others to build the production line.
Jiang Quan and Zuo Lan took a 24-hour train ride and finally arrived in the capital.
This was the terminal. The conductor helped Jiang Quan move all his things down and directly instructed the ground staff to help Jiang Quan move out of the train station.
Jiang Quan looked at the things and found that quite a lot was given to Zuo Lan, including a box of wine, a lot of food, and other miscellaneous things that took up a lot of space. She could not carry it all by herself.
He looked around the train station and found a taxi according to Cheng Hui's instructions.
It looks like the current motorized tricycles, with a small cargo bed at the back covered with a tarpaulin. If it is thin, it can seat four people, and the fare is 20 cents per kilometer.
You need to make a reservation by phone to take a taxi, or they are readily available at places like train stations and hospitals.
"Will you take the bus home by yourself?" Jiang Quan asked.
He is not as handsome as Cheng Rui, and his eyes look fierce when he frowns, and his whole body exudes displeasure.
Zuo Lan doesn't like him either!
Of course she was willing to take a taxi home, but she said, "I was in a hurry to go out and I didn't bring any money!"
Jiang Quan asked, "How much does it cost to get to your house?"
Zuo Lan used to take taxis with Cheng Rui, so she knew the price. She said, "2 yuan."
Jiang Quan didn't care whether what she said was true or not. He gave her two dollars and helped her load the things into the car, and considered that task accomplished.
If she got into a car accident on the road or something...it's not his responsibility. Even if he and she were together, they couldn't prevent the accident!
Besides, the small car can't accommodate him.
He carried a bag of flour and went to Cheng Hui's house according to the address with peace of mind.
