When the daylight gradually faded and was gradually dyed with the glow of the sunset, they leaned on each other and packed up the tea sets and put the things inside the house.
The man and the demon usually stayed in the yard, mainly because the house had not been cleaned up not long ago, and it was the nature of plants to bask in the sun outside.
The new house is now almost decorated, various daily necessities have been purchased, and even some fruits are stored in the refrigerator. Only the kitchen area is still a little deserted. Chu Zhishui basically doesn't eat here, and Xin Yunmao doesn't eat either, so the utilization rate of the kitchen is quite low.
Xin Yunmao put the tea set back into the cupboard. He strolled around the kitchen and turned off the gas stove to observe: "I want to go to the place where I bought furniture last time."
He loved to touch and tinker with things when he had nothing to do. Now that he had studied the structure of the kitchen, he could not find a chance to try it.
"No playing with fire." Chu Zhishui watched him observe the flames and deliberately said, "I won't take you there, and I won't buy it for you."
How could she not know his idea? He just wanted to buy kitchenware and then cook at home.
The experience in Zhudu gave Xin Yunmao great confidence. He always felt that he was a culinary god who had come down to earth and wished he could beat Michelin. But when he asked, he found out that he had only watched humans cook and had never tried it himself. He would definitely ask her to eat it after he finished cooking. Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
Chu Zhishui concluded from experience that Xin Yunmao was not very good at manual operation, just like the claw machines in the game city, and was only good at things that involved probability and luck, such as gambling on the roulette wheel and buying snacks and scratch prizes.
Xin Yunmao crossed his arms and said stubbornly: "Then I will go by myself and buy it myself." "
Where do you have the money?" Chu Zhishui joked, "You gave me the dragon bone umbrella."
The God is truly penniless, and even the only paper umbrella was given to her.
"Why don't I have it?" Xin Yunmao's lips curled up slightly, he raised his fingers and took out his bank card, "I guessed you would say that, I have already received the wages they owed."
He has always felt that something is wrong, as if she always wants to support him.
Chu Zhishui was stunned: "Overdue wages?"
"Yes, Hu Chenrui gave it to me two days ago."
"Wait, do you have a position in the bureau?" Chu Zhishui walked forward, she stared at the bank card, and hesitated, "You won't transfer money randomly to let Director Hu and Director He go to jail, right?" "
It's okay to go to jail given their life span." He said slowly, "Although you can't use money to argue in the future, you can rest assured that since I promised you, I will keep my promise and will not resist the fate of being played with by others."
Chu Zhishui: "?"
She was choked for a moment: "I just want to have a normal relationship with you, but you always think of weird things."
Chu Zhishui checked the bank card over and over again and found that the card face was brand new, and it should have been made not long ago. Seeing her checking it carefully, Xin Yunmao simply put his hand in his pocket and said calmly: "Take it, the password is your birthday."
"The password is my birthday?" Chu Zhishui looked at him in surprise and muttered, "Who did you learn this from? Why do you have so many tricks?"
He didn't even have a mobile phone, so he actually set a password? This doesn't make sense.
"It is said that handing in wages is one of the pleasures of human men." He smiled, "Now I have completed this experience."
Chu Zhishui thought for a few seconds, and she took the wage card and said softly: "Thank you, God, you are really responsible. You are the pillar of the family. No, the pillar of the family."
Xin Yunmao heard this, and the corners of his mouth were completely raised, and he couldn't suppress it at all.
She smiled and said, "Okay, now you have no money again, so I won't take you there or buy anything for you."
"???"
Xin Yunmao was incredulous. He stretched out his hand to her and said, "Then I'll give it to you after I buy it."
"No use, it's too late." Chu Zhishui said leisurely, "Because of a little money to buy things, it's also one of the pleasures of human males. The God has also experienced this."
"..."
After all, after human males hand in their salary cards, they will usher in a new stage, starting to apply for money every time and deeply explore every expenditure.
Xin Yunmao glared at her sadly.
"If you really want to go, you should make a list. You can't just try things randomly in the kitchen area like last time and decide what to buy." Chu Zhishui said unhappily, "How can you cook both Chinese and Western food without knowing how to cook? In the end, you bought more kitchenware than you cooked."
"This is not that difficult."
"You didn't even see a microwave last time."
"Hmph."
The man and the demon agreed to go kitchen shopping another day, and Chu Zhishui was ready to return home. Before she left, she was still puzzled: "But why are you so obsessed with cooking? I didn't know you liked cooking before."
Xin Yunmao blinked and said frankly: "If you can cook here, you don't have to go back for dinner at night, and it's okay to stay."
Chu Zhishui: "?"
She blushed and said, "You wish! I want to go home for dinner!"
He didn't understand why she was upset, and asked suspiciously: "Isn't this your home? This is where you go home for dinner."
"..."
By the way, she bought this house, and she signed the house purchase contract herself.
"Okay, I'll download some movies for you one day, or bring the game console and install it in the living room for you to play." Chu Zhishui comforted him, "After all, playing games secretly is also one of the pleasures of human men."
He really has too few entertainment activities, and he always feels that he has no interests or hobbies.
"Movies?" He frowned slightly, and said meaningfully, "Are they those debauched movies of you humans?"
She glanced at him sideways and gritted her teeth and said, "Have you ever thought that it's not our movies that are debauched, but your extension direction that is debauched. When you see flowers blooming, you think of pollination. The imagination of plant demons can only leap forward at this level."
"..."
Chu Zhishui made him look ashamed and angry, and then he said goodbye with satisfaction.
At home, Chu Zhishui greeted her parents after entering the house. She didn't need to explain too much now. She took a short rest and rushed back to the house. She was really curious about how much Hu Chenrui would pay Xin Yunmao.
As soon as the door was closed, Xie Yan and Chu Xiaohe exchanged glances.
Xie Yan sighed: "She comes back later and later."
"It will take some time. Tell her one day, or bring her home to see." Chu Xiaohe lowered his head and scrolled through his phone, sighing, "It's hard for me to go there now."
Chu Zhishui would hang out all day every weekend under the pretext of decorating her new home. They weren't sure if she was really in her new home or was looking for an excuse to go out on a date, so they usually wouldn't go to her new home, for fear of accidentally bumping into them and embarrassing their daughter. Whether
she was having a problem out there or not and whether she was willing to introduce them to her family were two completely different things.
Chu Zhishui and Xin Yunmao only discussed the relationship after Qi Wu returned, but in the eyes of Chu Xiaohe and Xie Yan, she had been out for a long time, so they naturally thought she had been talking for a long time and could move on to the next stage.
In the room, Chu Zhishui didn't hear her parents whispering. She studied her bank card, arranged the birthday combination twice, and then successfully logged into her account and checked her balance on the computer.
The numbers in the payroll card were quite large, and it was more than she had earned since she joined the bureau, so she had no idea how it was calculated.
She searched the payroll calculator suspiciously, feeling that it included interest, and wondered if it was a one-time payment for all his past remuneration. If calculated according to the time period compiled by the Observation Bureau, this was not the income level of the Economic Development Department, and the rank seemed wrong.
Currently, the ones with the higher salaries in the bureau are Hu Chenrui and Chu Zhishui. The former is the incumbent director, and the latter has a high performance coefficient, which was the condition Chu Zhishui agreed to when he stayed.
But Xin Yunmao is using a director-level salary plus a high performance coefficient, which is simply an incredible salary level.
Damn, is this the power behind the God?
Chu Zhishui held the salary card in her hand. She seriously suspected that Director Hu was threatened, otherwise the money would not make sense.
In the Huaijiang Observation Bureau, countless furnaces were burned out. After intense construction and renovation, the new office building was completed first and ventilated. The remaining facilities, such as the library, were still in progress.
Chu Zhishui was no longer surprised by the speed of infrastructure construction of monsters. Monsters like Hu Chenrui took advantage of the fact that the Huaijiang Bureau was sparsely populated and not as noticeable as the Yinhai Bureau, and they built all kinds of new buildings wantonly. Even if there were a few passers-by passing by occasionally, as long as they were sprayed with amnesia bubble water, they would ignore many details in the bureau and no longer pay attention to these things.
Now, the general meeting of the whole bureau no longer gathers employees in the cafeteria, but moves to the brand new and bright conference room. Although the projector and other equipment had not yet been installed, the spacious space and excellent lighting greatly enhanced the enthusiasm of the meeting, making it formal and grand.
Hu Chenrui smiled and said, "Today we are holding a general meeting. There are three main things. First, the bureau has recently introduced new talents through special channels. Second, we will discuss the next development and construction with everyone. Third, Director Ye of Yinhai will lead a team to exchange ideas in the near future. We should seize the time to do it recently, so as not to let our brother units have regrets in Huaijiang."
"First, let me introduce the new member of the Economic Development Department. This is..." Hu Chenrui stretched out his hand to signal Xin Yunmao. The name on his lips went around, but in the end he didn't have the courage to call it out, so he simply skipped it. "A new talent recruited by the bureau through special channels. He has shown up before, and maybe everyone has seen him before."
Xin Yunmao sat below with a blank expression. He had no intention of introducing himself, as if it was not him who was dug up by Hu Chenrui with a lot of money.
The other monsters also looked strange. They obviously didn't understand why the God who had been wandering outside for thousands of years suddenly joined the team at this time?
It seems that the economic development is really not good. Even the Conferred Gods and Monsters have chosen to go ashore.
Hong Ximing was very considerate. She happily led the applause and welcomed Xin Yunmao to join.
As long as someone took the lead, the conference room was instantly filled with applause. Some people were afraid that the God would be unhappy, but now they all followed suit and clapped their hands desperately.
Hong Ximing smiled at Chu Zhishui and said meaningfully, "Xiao Chu, it's okay. There is no rule in our bureau that spouses working in the same office must be transferred to other positions. Your work will not be affected!"
Chu Zhishui was surprised: "Sister Hong..."
Miao Lu glanced at Chu Zhishui, and he glanced at Xin Yunmao, and said, "The world is going downhill, and the leaders are weak-willed and take the lead in walking on the edge of violating the rules of the bureau."
"Alas, the matter is not that serious." In order to defend the shaky money tree, He Shougui rarely spoke out to stop Miao and comforted him gently, "Director Chu, no one is perfect. You are already outstanding enough. As long as it is not a problem of principle, we can understand some minor flaws in your style."
"When water is too pure, there is no bamboo..." He saw Xin Yunmao's cold expression and changed the second half of the sentence, "When water is too pure, there is no bamboo."
"..."
Chu Zhishui had no words to say. She faced the teasing eyes of the demons. Unexpectedly, Xin Yunmao's identity changed overnight and confirmed the office romance.
It was Director Hu who openly opened a back door for him, but in the end, she was the one who took the blame.
