Deng Qi was so happy today that he didn't bother to argue with Zhao Simei and the others. "Today is a big happy occasion for my Deng family. I'm so shameless to invite you to dinner. I hope you don't mind. This is a small gift from our Deng family. Please accept it. Thank you for your tolerance towards my daughter over the years."
"My Deng family was ignorant in the past and often offended my in-laws. I hope they won't be angry."
Deng Xi was so friendly that Aunt Lu found it hard to adapt at first. "How could that be? Xiu Nu used to be so confused about boys and girls, which was really a headache. But now she has changed her ways, which makes us happy. Now my granddaughters can all go to school and smile more. Xiu Nu has fattened them up a bit recently and they look so pretty. The girls are getting closer and closer. The children always look for their mother after school and rush to help her with work."
Deng Qi warmly shook Aunt Lu's hand. "Daughters are great. They're more sensible and considerate than sons. Sister Wan is a role model for our Deng family. She's changed our family's mindset of favoring boys over girls. In the future, I hope to raise someone as outstanding as Sister Wan."
Zhao Simei felt that the Deng family was being so kind to them, and there must be something fishy going on. "Dad and Mom, don't be fooled. A dog will always eat shit. The Deng family must be asking something of us, so they're bribing you."
Deng Xiunv really wanted to tear her sister-in-law's mouth apart. "Today is a big happy event for my Deng family. Since my sister-in-law doesn't like Sister Wan and the Deng family, I won't invite you to dinner."
"If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. Who cares? I work in a state-owned restaurant. What delicious food have I not eaten?" Zhao Simei showed a look of disdain on her face. She turned around and ordered Zhou Tianfu to heat up the dishes. "Brother Tianfu, heat up the braised pork we packed. I was originally thinking of showing filial piety to my parents by letting my second brother and his wife taste some meat, but now it's not necessary. However, I still want to remind you that if you eat something from the Deng family, you may end up working for them!"
"I heard that your Deng family is crazy and actually transferred the old house to Gu Wanwan for free. What benefits did she promise you? Aren't you afraid of being cheated?"
Sun Chunlian was only hesitant for a moment, and then she took the initiative to help her sister-in-law Deng Xiunü cook. The reason was simple: the Deng family had more meat, and her sister-in-law said nicely that she would treat them to meat, but in fact, she and Zhou Tianfu ate it all, and the others could only taste the food of a state-owned restaurant.
"Wife, can't we live like this?" Brother Zhao looked at the two tables for adults and one table for children, and then looked at the delicious dishes on the table, the kind with more meat and less vegetables. The staple food was white rice without any coarse grains.
Deng Xiunv cleared her throat and announced loudly to everyone, "Didn't I joke with you last time, saying I'd be a team leader? I didn't expect my wish to come true. Sister Wan has signed many orders from all over the country and has set up a small factory in the old Deng family house. My mother, sister-in-law, and nieces are all employed as workers."
"What?!" Zhao Simei and Sun Chunlian were suddenly shocked. "How is that possible? Gu Wanwan is just an educated youth."
Zhao Guoqi and Aunt Lu were obviously shocked. Sister Wan didn't even inform them of such a big thing, which showed how much she hoped for them and their husband.
"She's the granddaughter of Yu Xun from the Gu family in Jing City. What can't she do?" Deng Li said with pride. "People often say my son, Xiaodi Deng, is a loser, but he's the most promising male in the Deng family. He's inherited my embroidery skills. Sister Wan praised his exceptional embroidery skills."
"Except for my little granddaughter, all the other female members of the Deng family, including my youngest son, have passed the assessments of Sister Wan and Qingtang and become honored workers. Sister Wan gave my son and me a salary of one yuan, and there will be further increases in the future."
Deng Yu was also beaming, unable to resist boasting, "One family has many workers. Now, the women in our family are the main force. Women hold up half the sky. My son, grandson, and I are responsible for collecting mountain products and doing housework."
Deng Xiunv didn't miss the envious look in Zhao Simei's eyes, and she burst into laughter on the spot. "I'm a peasant. Unlike you, Zhao Simei, you're a glorious temporary worker in a state-owned restaurant. I'm just a team leader, relying on my family's skills to be a regular employee. I don't make much money a month, only fifty or ten yuan."
