Chapter 576 Keep a Low Profile



When Ning Jing heard Xiu Hua say that, she was first surprised, then her expression changed as she realized something.

She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, it's because I didn't think it through enough. I'll bring you wild vegetable rice balls tomorrow too."

My sister-in-law wrapped wild vegetables in the rice ball, just enough for one bite, so that people wouldn't know what was inside.

Okay, let's have egg pancakes and glutinous rice dumplings for breakfast tomorrow.

Tie Dan listened to his second sister and sister-in-law's words, and although he didn't quite understand, he could always feel the subtle stares from others when he ate with his second sister.

That kind of look isn't very comfortable.

So, he breathed a sigh of relief after his sister-in-law said that.

Although Xiuchun and Siya were a little disappointed that they wouldn't be able to have qingtuan for lunch tomorrow, they were still happy to be able to have it in the morning.

After Ning Jing had settled the children in, Fu Hongxing came over and said softly, "Don't think of things as so bad. I work in a coal mine, and I can afford to feed the children well."

Ning Jing, however, knew more about what had happened in that other world back then than he did, so she shook her head and firmly rejected the idea, saying, "It's better to keep a low profile. Better safe than sorry."

Some people might try to kill you over something very trivial.

Upon hearing Ning Jing's words, Fu Hongxing frowned slightly.

However, he had always kept a low profile while working in the coal mine.

Now, after listening to his wife's words, he has become even more low-key.

When Fu Hongxing left in the morning, he was given an aluminum lunchbox containing green rice dumplings to take to the monkey.

The monkey now lives alone in the coal mine, eating in the canteen every day.

It's practically impossible to get your hands on this kind of qingtuan (a type of glutinous rice dumpling).

So when the monkey opened the box and saw the green rice dumplings inside, it almost burst into tears.

He was touched, and then he knew that his sister-in-law treated him the best.

He took a big bite and enjoyed the taste of the diced meat and bamboo shoots rolling on his tongue. He finished the fist-sized green dumpling in just a few bites.

Speaking of monkeys, they used to follow Master Qiu, and later, after going to buy grain with Fu Hongxing, they were transferred to the purchasing department by Factory Director Kang.

After all, the purchasing department lost two people at once, and they needed to fill the gaps.

Besides the monkey, there was also a round-faced, fair-skinned girl who looked to be under 20 years old.

Her surname is Xu, and her given name is Xu Jia.

According to the information Fu Hongxing heard from Director Kang, he was probably sent in by someone from the county town. Judging from his appearance, his family must be well-off, and he must have some connections.

He instructed the monkey to keep some distance from her to avoid causing any unnecessary trouble.

After listening to Fu Hongxing's words, the monkey remained very tactful in its interactions with people in the purchasing department.

Even Pan Yun was initially quite unhappy about the fact that the apprentice who had gone down the mine was transferred to the purchasing department.

Even now, when I look at monkeys, my eyes crinkle into slits with laughter!

The monkeys could always get their hands on some odds and ends, which were much cheaper than those from the supply and marketing cooperatives.

Who wouldn't want to take advantage of a good deal?

These things that the monkey brought were originally from Fang Meng's channels.

However, he didn't need much, so people just treated it as something he bought for his family, not as a business transaction.

And the monkeys were indeed only used to win people's hearts; there was no intention to make money from them.
