When Xiaolin heard that Xu Xiangyang had agreed, he immediately showed a happy expression.
After many days, someone finally agreed to his request.
Qian Wenqing, who was standing to the side, disagreed, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Oh no, someone's coming for dinner!
I really want to smash all the bowls, leave one, and let him eat by himself!
"Thank you... thank you boss!" Xiaolin said happily, with an expression that was hard to describe.
Dong Er, who was standing next to him, rolled his eyes and asked with a smile, "Boss, can I bring someone with me?"
He rubbed his hands together, a grin on his face.
That smile made him seem even more sleazy...
Xu Xiangyang shook his head. "There's only one spot available."
What a joke! It's not a relief center!
I only agreed to Xiaolin's request because I wanted to test her.
However, Dong Erxiao had too many schemes, and that black-clad guy seemed to be quite strong in combat, so neither of them would work.
When they heard that it wouldn't work, they were both a little disappointed. Why didn't they think of bringing it up earlier? Maybe they could have taken someone out to eat.
Whether they have enough to eat or not is another matter; just having food to eat is good enough.
The rest was simple; Xu Xiangyang explained the situation.
The job is uncertain, the salary is uncertain, meals are provided, you can work if you want, or leave if you don't.
Even under these conditions, Xu Xiangyang himself wouldn't have been able to do it, but they all agreed.
That's the charm of having meals provided, isn't it?
A person who loves to eat, a soul who loves to eat!
Xu Xiangyang glanced at the time; it was already late. He had promised to go back and cook dinner, and he couldn't keep his family waiting too long.
He gave the instructions, then called Qian Wenqing aside.
He said in a low voice, "Control their food intake. Don't let them eat until they're full and then just leave. But don't let them go hungry either. Just feed them until they're about 70% full, understand?"
He has money and food, but he's not running a relief station, so why should he feed them? What if they're full and don't work?
Qian Wenqing nodded, indicating that he understood and also felt that the baby shouldn't be fed too much.
Especially since these people can take food from him, how can that be allowed?
After Xu Xiangyang finished speaking, he was about to leave, and the others followed him.
Qian Wenqing's group immediately locked the door and followed.
"Brother Xu, wait for me!" He caught up with him, running and stumbling, then took a breath.
Xu Xiangyang frowned. "What are you doing?"
Hasn't he already confessed everything he needed to? Why are you still following him?
Qian Wenqing said with a grin, "Brother Xu, I won't cook tonight, I'll come to your place for dinner."
I've been craving cabbage and potatoes for the past couple of days, but they don't taste very good. I'm really craving meat.
To begin with, meat ration coupons were scarce each month, and now that I'm not working at the company, I've lost all of them.
Although cured pork is fragrant, it's not very good for stewing.
Xu Xiangyang didn't refuse when he heard his words. After all, it was Wang Xiumin's birthday today, and it would be more lively with more people.
So let him go today.
These people will start working tomorrow, so even if Qian Wenqing wants to come back and freeload, it won't be so easy anymore.
After taking the company bus, the two of them arrived home, and it was already dark.
"Oh dear, why are you only coming back now?" Wang Xiumin had been waiting in the kitchen for ages, hoping her son would come back to cook, but he didn't come back.
Seeing her like this, Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but feel helpless. "Mother, you can go out. I'll do it here."
He glanced at the pot; the chicken stew with dried potatoes was ready. He was really in a hurry.
Wang Xiumin wanted to learn here, but before she could even speak, she heard a child crying inside the room.
"Oh dear, these are all deadly!" she said, slapping her thigh before running over.
Xu Xiangyang cleaned the crayfish and prepared them. The oysters and river crabs were steamed in the pot.
Oysters only need five minutes, while river crabs need a little longer.
He started a new stove, stir-fried the crayfish with the seasonings he bought, and then poured in two cans of beer.
This little odor, it just comes right up when you scratch it!
It smells delicious!
It's just too pungent.
The smell was so strong that Qian Wenqing, who was standing at the door ready to come and help, was choked and drove away.
"Oh my god, what's this? It's so spicy! Cough cough..." Qian Wenqing couldn't help but cough.
After Xu Xiangyang finished looking at the pot, he went outside.
He glanced at Qian Wenqing and said, "It's a mess."
"Go to the kitchen and check the pots and pans right away. Call me in five minutes."
After saying that, he went straight into the house.
Qian Wenqing didn't want to go in at all; it was so spicy, he'd probably choke to death.
But they didn't dare disobey, so they could only go inside and stay.
Fortunately, the kitchen door was big enough that the fumes stopped after a while, but it was still quite cold.
The meal Xu Xiangyang cooked made the neighbors choke, but none of them said anything.
Wang Xiumin usually maintains good relationships with the people in the neighborhood, and they generally don't come to her door to complain unless something is too outrageous.
After preparing dinner, Xu Xiangyang didn't change his clothes. He planned to take a shower after dinner so he wouldn't smell of food on his body.
"Wow, this smells so good!" Wang Xiumin said happily.
Ever since Xu Xiangyang brought the things back this morning, she's been staring at them. She didn't expect that these things, which look rather ugly, would smell so good.
Xu Xiangyang took a black brocade box out of his pocket and handed it to her, saying, "Mom, happy birthday! This is a gift I bought for you."
Who says "Happy Birthday" at a time like this? Wang Xiumin felt awkward, but she still smiled and accepted the box.
