Jia Yueqian's meaning is very simple: regarding the job, it would be better if she could find one, but it would be fine if she couldn't. The recipe is to thank Aunt Liu for her care during this time.
Liu Shan then looked at Jia Yue properly. He felt that she looked familiar, but he had never seen her outside the hospital. Maybe she just had a common face!
Jia Yue's words made Liu Shan realize that she wasn't just a girl who could only cry. At least, Liu Shan's prejudice was gone. His mother brought up work right away, making him think that this person was taking advantage of his mother!
After hearing those words, one wonders how much profit pea flour cake could generate if the recipe were genuine...
He was a man of principle, and thought the girl was a nice person and worth befriending.
"Comrade Xu, right? I'll accept the recipe on behalf of my mother. I'll find someone to make it for her to try later. Don't worry about work, I'll keep an eye on things for you."
"Then thank you very much, Comrade Liu."
Aunt Liu wasn't unaware of social etiquette, and upon hearing this, she liked Jia Yue even more.
I genuinely sympathize with her, but sympathy doesn't necessarily equate to admiration.
She felt that although Jia Yue seemed unremarkable, she was quite particular about her work.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the ward was exceptionally pleasant.
Liu Shan left Jia Yue's address, but Jia Yue reminded her that when she came to find her, she should say that she was someone from the school, and that finding her was a matter for the school.
Liu Shan expressed his understanding.
Jia Yue had a lot of confidence in Liu Shan's abilities and character. He was able to operate in the black market, take her gold brick, and didn't have any bad intentions or follow her.
This speaks for itself; for someone like this, getting along well and finding a job is not difficult.
Jia Yue stayed in the hospital for two days before returning home to wait for news.
About two weeks later, an aunt from the courtyard brought Liu Shan over: "Jia Yue, this person says he's from your school, so something must have happened at the school."
"They're from our school. Thank you for bringing them over, Auntie."
"Don't mention it. Just say hello if you need anything."
"OK."
Jia Yue looked at Liu Shan and said, "My parents should be back soon. Let me treat you to a meal!"
"OK."
Liu Shan had heard about her family from his mother before, and he had even inquired about it and knew that her parents were not good people.
When it comes to work, he helps people to the very end.
He used the recipe for pea flour cake, and the result was just as good as the ones he bought from his older sister on the black market. He made a lot of money from this.
Jia Yue went out with Liu Shan and ran into her aunt as they left.
"Jiayue, what's wrong with you...?"
"Something came up at school; I'm graduating soon!"
"Then you go ahead and do your thing."
Liu Shan wasn't particularly outstanding in appearance, but he wasn't ugly either. He didn't show much enthusiasm for Jia Yue, and the aunt didn't suspect anything.
Jia Yue locked the door and then rode Liu Shan's bicycle to a state-run restaurant. The restaurant wasn't very close to the courtyard, which was why Liu Shan chose it for Jia Yue's sake.
It can be said that Liu Shan is a very meticulous person, and there is a reason why he is able to make money.
After ordering the food, Liu Shan spoke up: "Comrade Xu, there's progress on the work matter."
Jia Yue smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Comrade Liu. You've worked hard."
"It's not exactly troublesome, it's just a coincidence. I know someone who has some family troubles and wants to sell his job for a high price. He works in a daily chemical factory, in the soap production workshop. His job is to sort and pack soaps. He wants 800 yuan for this job, and he needs it urgently because he needs the money tomorrow."
Eight hundred is indeed a lot.
These days, you can get married for a few dozen or a hundred yuan. Although jobs are valuable, a soap factory worker earns about six hundred yuan.
However, she lacked opportunities and her work was merely a means to stay in the city.
"Eight hundred it is."
Liu Shan didn't expect her to be so straightforward; it was eight hundred, not eighty or eight yuan.
They do have guts, but with graduation approaching, job opportunities are hard to come by.
"I'll give you an address. Go there at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, and I'll be waiting for you there."
As he spoke, Liu Shan handed a note to Jia Yue. Jia Yue glanced at it and realized that the tenement was quite far away.
The two didn't talk much. Jia Yue was a quiet and reserved person to begin with. After the food was served and they ate, Jia Yue said she would visit Aunt Liu later, and then they parted ways.
Liu Shan found a job faster than she expected; it seems the pea flour cake recipe worked very well.
That recipe was compiled by her in her later years, and it's similar to the one in her online space, but the taste is definitely different.
Each has its own flavor, and she wasn't afraid that Liu Shan would suspect anything.
Stepping out of the state-run restaurant, Jia Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking about her family situation, she quickly resolved it. She had had enough of enduring Xu Jiancheng, her stepmother, and her domineering younger brother.
I've secured a job. Once the job is settled, I'll go to the school to explain the situation, and then I'll take an exam.
As for how to deal with that family of three, she couldn't help but laugh when she thought about what had happened recently.
In the original owner's memory, when her biological mother was still alive, Xu Jiancheng wanted a son, but he couldn't conceive for a long time. At that time, her maternal grandparents passed away, and there was always quarreling in the family.
Not long after the original owner's biological mother passed away, Xu Jiancheng married his stepmother. The two were married for a year, but the stepmother did not conceive. Xu Jiancheng had even laid a hand on his stepmother.
She got pregnant later.
Jia Yue is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. Through observation, listening, questioning, and palpation, she could tell that Xu Jiancheng had kidney problems. She took his pulse when he was drunk, and in that situation, it would be difficult for him to conceive.
The younger brother born to the stepmother was a chubby boy with single eyelids, while Xu Jiancheng had double eyelids, and the stepmother had single eyelids.
The stepbrother doesn't resemble Xu Jiancheng, and the stepmother always emphasizes that the son resembles her. After she said it so many times, everyone stopped caring why the son didn't look like his father.
