Chapter 60 The Unlucky Trio
Ji Changyu glanced at Xu Yao with some surprise.
She could tell after just one glance.
The sensitivity of his young wife was beyond his imagination. Even if his application for transfer was not approved, he did not have to worry too much about his young wife being bullied.
"Don't be fooled by his thin appearance. He is a level 5 chef at the steel plant, and his salary is not much different from that of the deputy director."
Xu Yao was surprised, "That old lady is still crying and crying about her poverty?"
Ji Changyu said slowly, "Because he likes to help others and often gives gifts to others, he is not only well-known in our compound, but also praised by everyone in the steel plant. He is selected as an advanced worker almost every year and has even been mentioned in the newspapers."
There really are such selfless and kind people in this world.
Xu Yao admired him very much.
"No wonder an old lady talked about him in front of outsiders." Xu Yao sighed, "Maybe he was really emotional and couldn't help it."
Ji Changyu smiled and shook his head.
"He is not the only one who has done good things, but his reputation has spread the farthest. Guess why?"
Xu Yao was not stupid. After Ji Changyu's guidance, she immediately realized what was wrong. She widened her eyes in surprise and was about to speak when Xu Jiaan suddenly spoke.
"It was spread by an old lady."
"Yes." Ji Changyu looked at Xu Jia'an with appreciation, "They play the good cop and the bad cop, and every time they have a fight, any good thing done by the uncle is brought up and talked about."
But why do they do this?
Reputation is not that easy to maintain! How many celebrities in later generations have tried to establish their own personalities but ended up failing in the end?
If he wants to have a good reputation, he has to help others in a real way, right? What they paid out was real money, and they were really willing to spend it.
Xu Yao's confusion was clearly written on her face, and Ji Changyu gave a concise explanation.
It turned out that the cooking skills of the uncle Qin Baojia were average and did not even meet the standards of a level five chef, but he was promoted repeatedly thanks to the title of advanced worker and the halo of being in newspapers.
You should know that it is difficult to get a chef's license, and the salary and benefits for each level vary greatly.
If you calculate carefully, with Qin Baojia's cooking skills, he should not be able to get that much salary. His current high salary, minus the money he spends on helping others, is definitely more than what he could get based on his own ability.
"They are so cunning." Xu Yao sighed, "They look honest and kind. You can't judge a person by his appearance."
There are few people with property deeds in the compound, and the majority are tenants, some of whom have moved in in recent years. Ji Changyu was not familiar with them, so he handed out candies, said a few polite words, and left.
Next is Ji Changyu’s childhood friend in the slum, Lian Guangjun, who lives in the east wing.
Lian Guangjun and his wife are both employees of the winery. The former works in the union office and the latter works in the production workshop.
"Da Jun, are you in the room?" Ji Changyu shouted from outside.
As Ji Changyu and Xu Yao walked into the house, the two little girls who were squatting at the door picking bamboo sticks raised their heads and looked at them curiously.
When he saw Xu Jiaan appearing behind him, his eyes immediately lit up, and he reached out to grab Xu Jiaan and wanted to pull him to play together.
Xu Jiaan glanced at the two little sisters and saw that their snot was about to flow into their mouths. The younger one simply wiped it with the back of her hand and avoided it with some disgust.
"Brother, play with us~" The little girl chased after him relentlessly. Xu Jiaan reached out to Ji Changyu with a look of horror, wanting to hug him.
Ji Changyu, "?"
He is just a tool.
Although he was dissatisfied, his hands did not slow down at all and clamped the person under his armpits.
Xu Yao was laughing so much that she looked at them. When her eyes fell on the two little girls, she couldn't help but frown.
They looked about five and three years old, with messy hair, dirty faces and other exposed parts, old clothes, and thin limbs, looking particularly small in the empty clothes.
It’s not much better than Xu Jiaan’s previous situation.
It stands to reason that both husband and wife are workers and have no shortage of money, so it is rare that they can raise their child like this.
A couple who heard the noise came out, and the two little girls no longer focused on Xu Jiaan and ran to their parents.
Lian Guangjun looked to be about the same age as Ji Changyu, with a fair and gentle complexion. His wife Fang Yinzhang, who was beside him, was about the same age as Xu Yao, with regular and beautiful features.
At this time, the three-year-old girl, seeing that her snot was about to fall again, quickly sucked her nose, and the sound she made embarrassed everyone present.
"This child, how can he be so unclean? No matter how many times I tell him, he just can't change this bad habit."
Fang Yinzhang glanced at Ji Changyu and his wife awkwardly, then took out a handkerchief and rubbed the little girl's face vigorously.
It’s the adults’ fault if the child doesn’t like cleanliness. In the past, when the original incarnation didn’t care about Xu Jiaan, he was like a little beggar. Now Xu Yao urges him to take a bath, brush his teeth, and wash his hands before meals every day, so the child will subconsciously keep himself clean.
Lian Guangjun looked at Xu Yao and Xu Jiaan calmly, patted Ji Changyu, and said with a smile.
"Well, I used to worry that you would be single, but you got married without making any noise, and your son is even older than my Lian Ting. I really envy you."
Fang Yinzhang's expression changed.
What are you envious of? Do you envy someone’s wife or son? !
Ji Changyu paused with his smile, first invited them to have dinner at noon tomorrow, and then asked if the winery had any recruitment news recently.
The distillery is a large factory in Jiangcheng besides the steel plant and several heavy industrial plants.
"You've asked the right person. I'm from the Propaganda Department, so I know some inside information. The factory has opened a canning production line and is looking for a few clerical positions, but the competition is fierce, with many high school students signing up. I think your sister-in-law is in trouble."
It will be easy if you want to take the production line exam. I will act as a middleman and you can give the director a thousand or eight hundred yuan and I guarantee you will pass. ”
Xu Yao was overjoyed when she heard that. At that time, jobs were very popular and there was no chance to recruit outside because there were not enough family members to fill the positions.
She automatically ignored the second half of the sentence, "What is the content of your factory's civil servant examination?"
Lian Guangjun glanced at her in surprise. Didn't people say that Ji Changyu's wife was an illiterate girl from the countryside? He didn't expect her to be so aggressive right from the start.
Glancing at Ji Changyu's expression, he smiled and said, "The exams are quite diverse. If you really want to take the exam, I will sort out the previous exam papers the day after tomorrow and give you some review, and then help you register."
Xu Yao was naturally overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.
"Given the relationship between Brother Ji and me, it would be awkward to say these things," Lian Guangjun invited them to come in and sit down.
At this time, the sound of a baby crying was heard in the house. Fang Yinzhang frowned and ran into the house.
Ji Changyu grabbed three handfuls of wedding candy and gave them to the two children, then said that there were many people behind him who needed to take the candy, and left with Xu Yao.
After going out, Xu Yao breathed a sigh of relief. She felt extremely suffocated staying there.
"He's your childhood friend? What names did the mother and daughter give him? Fang Yinzhang, Lian Ting, Lian Yao, Lian Pan. How much do they value boys over girls?"
"We haven't had much contact in years. He wasn't like this before."
All we can say is that people’s minds have changed, Ji Changyu sighed.
The three daughters born in their family were also unlucky.
