Chapter 444: Be Your Best
Watching him turn and leave, Dai Qing twitched her lips.
Sincerity can be exchanged for sincerity, but the key is that you have poor judgment and attract bad friends. In their eyes, your generosity is just stupidity, deception, and a sucker.
"Sister Dai, your kindness has been betrayed again."
Lu Banxian picked up the ten yuan in the box, looked at it, shook his head and sighed.
"He sacrificed his wife and children to support his friends. I wonder if he has straw in his head."
“This is the standard of a good guy.”
In the eyes of his family, he is cold and selfish, but in the eyes of outsiders, he is a good person.
What can she say to someone who doesn't understand life?
Lu Banxian put the money away and chuckled.
"Whether he can figure it out or not is up to him, but you are our noble man. With your coming, my income will increase rapidly."
"We are destined to be together, but you have to listen to my advice."
Lu Banxian had suffered all his life. His condition improved only in his old age, but now he is on the right track.
The two talked for a few more words, and then Dai Qing took Xiao Hei home.
When passing by the Life Square, I saw from a distance that Aunt Wang was sitting there chatting with a few old ladies, with her walking stick at her side.
"Xiaoqing, are you out walking the dog?"
"Yeah, I have nothing to do, so I took Xiao Hei out for a walk."
Dai Qing pushed her bicycle and greeted them with a smile.
"This girl is really pretty. Is she dating someone?"
"Young people nowadays like to love freely, so don't ask around."
"How can free love be better than knowing everything about it? Young people don't understand, but we are people who have experienced it, so don't we understand it?"
Listening to the old ladies' questions, Dai Qing smiled politely, said hello to Aunt Wang, and rode away on her bike.
You really can't talk too much to these old ladies. After no more than three sentences, they will ask you to go on a blind date.
Looking at Dai Qing's fleeing back, Aunt Wang shook her head helplessly. This girl would hide when she heard about her boyfriend.
Look at her daughter Juanzi, she can’t wait to be with her boyfriend every day.
People are indeed different.
After walking a long way, Dai Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
She is now a little resistant to her grandfather and mother. It is really overwhelming when they start discussing life-long affairs right away.
As soon as I turned into the alley, I saw Secretary Yang standing at the door with two gift boxes at his feet.
"Sister Dai, you're back."
Seeing Secretary Yang appear here, Dai Qing was a little curious.
"Aren't you preparing for your boss' wedding? Why do you have time to come here?"
"I am indeed in charge of the boss's wedding. I bought some bird's nests for the boss's mother-in-law. The boss specifically asked me to send two boxes to Sister Dai to try. I heard that this thing is good for health. I used a lot of connections to buy it."
The boss treats Miss Dai as his adopted parent, so the subordinates must respect her as well.
Dai Qing opened the door, and Secretary Yang came into the yard carrying the bird's nest. He put the gift box on the small square table under the grape trellis and looked down at his watch.
"Sister Dai, I still have some things to deal with, so I'll go back first."
"I've been waiting for a long time. Have a cup of tea before leaving."
"It only takes a few minutes to get to the company. It will be the same if I drink again when I get home."
It’s not that he doesn’t want to drink, but he really has no time to do anything else.
Several new people trained in the company have not yet gotten the hang of things, but he has to take care of both internal and external tasks. He is so busy every day that he is dizzy and has not had a rest for a month.
Dai Qing looked at his back as he hurried away. This man was a smart man who always managed to seize every opportunity he got, so he didn't need her to remind him.
Looking at the bird's nest that was delivered, although it was slightly inferior in quality to the one sent by Dong Zhen, it was still quite good in their place.
After putting the bird's nest in the cabinet, Dai Qing couldn't help but feel worried.
Yan Biao was so thoughtful that in addition to the red envelope, he also had to prepare a gift for his wedding. After all, he was the host of the wedding and could not go empty-handed.
As for what to give, she needs to think carefully.
After lunch, Dai Qing moved around for a while and then went to take a nap.
When she woke up, at three o'clock in the afternoon as usual, she had just washed her face when there was a knock on the door.
Seeing Juanzi coming in with a bitter face, Dai Qing raised her eyebrows, "What's wrong?"
"I can't stay at my house anymore. My ears are almost deafened by my mother's nagging. I'm going to hide at your house."
Juanzi covered her chest, walked directly under the grape trellis, and collapsed on the recliner.
"Is it so serious?" Dai Qing laughed. She went back to the house, peeled an apple for her, and put it in her hand. "How about you stay at my house for the next two days?"
"I want to, but my mother doesn't agree. She wants to keep an eye on me. She wants to teach me to be frugal before I get married. Otherwise, after I get married, I will still be begging for food while wearing beautiful clothes."
Dai Qing: “…”
That's not that serious.
"Why is my life so miserable..."
Juanzi covered her face and wailed for a while, then she got up and looked at Dai Qing.
"You are a great fortune teller that my whole family trusts. Can you help me see if I will have to beg for food in the future?"
"Pfft, not really. Aunt Zhang is just worried that you don't know how to plan. Once you get married, with Ding Yong to help you, life won't be too difficult."
Dai Qing glanced at her face subconsciously and couldn't help but be stunned. Juanzi's career path had really changed.
"Do you want to learn a skill before you get married?"
If they think about the big downfall in the future, the profitability of their canning factory will also be affected. If they have more skills, they will be more confident.
"What's the point of learning a skill? I won't quit my job." She knew her own shortcomings. She loved beauty but was lazy, and was not suitable for business at all.
"Then let Ding Yong learn one in his spare time to supplement the family income. Then, you won't have to worry about buying clothes or anything like that."
"Isn't this...not good?"
She married Ding Yong out of love. If she made him tired because of her, she would feel guilty.
"I am a woman of the new era after all, and I don't want to be a burden."
"It's better to be prepared than to be afraid of danger. I'm not asking you to deliberately exploit him."
Dai Qing looked at Juanzi's round eyes and couldn't help but chuckle. This innocent girl was really enviable.
In a few years, when she faces the pressure of life, I hope she can still retain this innocence.
"That's right. I'll talk to him later and see if he's willing."
Juanzi took the apple and ate it with a snap, as if she was letting out her anger.
"My mother asked me to learn more from you. She really thinks highly of her daughter. How can I be as smart as you with my brain? Isn't this embarrassing for me?"
Listening to Juanzi's complaints, Dai Qing couldn't help but laugh.
"Don't copy me, just be yourself."
"I think so too, but my mom thinks I'm stupid... By the way, next time you go out, tell me that I'm on annual leave, so I can go out with you, okay?"
"Are you willing to be separated from Ding Yong for so long?" Dai Qing looked at her with a teasing look.
"What's the big deal? We'll be together every day after we get married, so of course I should enjoy myself before we get married. Besides, my mom will be most relieved if I follow you."
