Chapter 196 Worrying about Nothing
Hearing Zhang Jing say this in person, second uncle Li Dalin was extremely happy. With a monthly salary of 17 yuan, the two girls would earn 34 yuan a month.
Although we have to deliver 40 kilograms of food rations every month, the family income has increased a lot.
"How can I thank you so much?"
The second uncle looked at Zhang Jing and said with a choked voice.
Zhang Jing and Zhao Yi helped them a lot, and there was nothing they could do for Zhao Yi and the others.
"It doesn't matter what we say as a family. It's more important for us to live a good life."
Zhang Jing quickly waved her hand and said.
The grain sold by the restaurant every day has nothing to do with the restaurant. It is managed by the grain and oil station itself, and the amount of grain is fixed every month. As for the grain for the banquet, it is prepared by the host himself. Zhao Yi cannot afford so much grain for the banquet.
Normally, twenty kilograms of food rations are not enough for one person to consume in a month, but due to the high oil content, these girls can be full with just vegetables and cannot consume twenty kilograms in a month.
"Then we'll go back first and let Daya and the others pack up and come to work."
Uncle Li Dashun said with a smile.
After the two finished talking, they handed the egg cakes they brought to Zhang Jing and walked towards the station.
"Brother, I just can't figure it out."
Li Dalin looked at his elder brother and said something without any reason.
"I can't figure out anything."
Li Dashun was also a little confused.
"Xiao Yi Zhang Jing, what do you think?"
Li Dalin asked.
"They are very kind, especially to their relatives. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be able to live like this."
Li Dashun blurted out without any thought.
"That's right. Why isn't he like this with Xiaogang? They didn't go to Xiaogang's wedding or his baby's one-month-old birthday. Don't you think that's strange?"
Li Dalin asked.
"People are different, and flowers have different shades of red. Don't you realize that Xiaogang isn't that close to us? If Baoguo wasn't a worker, he wouldn't be as close to us as an outsider. When the workers go to him, he always invites them to the table with a smile. What expression does he have when we go?"
Li Dashun said with a smile.
If Li Baoguo was not a worker, he might not even smile. When Li Baoguo went to the wedding, the couple treated him more affectionately than when they met their relatives. He just called Li Dalin "second uncle" and that was all.
His smile to his co-workers was brighter than a chrysanthemum.
After listening to Li Dashun's analysis, Li Dalin also realized that Zhao Yi looked down on them and was unwilling to associate with them.
Zhao Yi treated these unemployed relatives like real family members. He would think of any good things and help them personally. He would also personally entertain them at banquets and even wished he could send them home.
The two had just left for a while.
Xu Chao rode his bicycle to the department store.
"Xiao Chao, I missed dinner today."
Zhang Jing said with a smile.
Among Zhao Yi's apprentices, Xu Chao has had the longest contact with their family, and he treats this young apprentice Zhang Jing like his nephew.
"He was delayed because of something important. If the girl lived farther away, you wouldn't have seen him at noon today."
Zhang Jing was a little confused by Zhao Yi's nonsensical words.
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Yi and asked.
"A comrade from the Women's Federation introduced a girl to him. As soon as he got off work at noon today, he followed her on the street and sent her home."
Zhao Yi smiled.
"You little bastard, when can you eat at our wedding?"
Zhang Jing looked at Xu Chao and smiled.
"Don't worry, Master's wife, the wedding banquet will definitely be served here."
Xu Chao's face turned red at this moment because of what Zhao Yi said.
As soon as he got to work this morning, Xu Chao was called to the office by the Women's Federation, and the girl was also called over. After the introduction of the Women's Federation, the two got to know each other. The Women's Federation then broke the news, saying that the two were almost old enough to get married and should get to know each other better.
"This kid is just sweet-talking."
Zhang Jing smiled.
"He's just sweet-talking? He saw the girl couldn't say a word for a long time, so he just stood there stupidly with a red face. If she hadn't offered to take him home, I guess he wouldn't know what to do until he went to work in the afternoon."
Zhao Yi rolled his eyes at Zhang Jing and said.
"Such people are honest."
"Yes, yes, you are right. People who are always looking for someone to introduce them to a date are the most honest."
Zhao Yi glanced at Xu Chao and said.
"Use your skills with Dabao and Xiaoxuan, invite them to go to the square, watch a movie, and give them two sets of comic books. It won't take long for this to be accomplished."
Zhang Jing offered help.
"Don't give a digital watch as a gift when you just met someone, as that will scare them. Give something cheap, like fruit or a scarf when it's cold, which will make you look warm. Give a watch after things are settled, and they will be more likely to accept it."
Zhang Jing hurriedly explained.
"He is your son. You are so concerned about him that you have taught him everything I gave you."
Zhao Yi smiled bitterly.
"A disciple is half a son. I am half a son of the master and his wife."
Xu Chao said proudly.
"If you have nothing to do, get out of here right away. If you stay too long, you might end up fighting with my son for the family property."
Zhao Yi rolled his eyes at Xu Chao and said unhappily.
Xu Chao put down the fruit he had just bought with a smile. He heard his master's wife say that the apples were good yesterday. Then he went back quickly to prepare a hairpin for Zhao Xuanxuan in the evening. It was a small gift he had bought for her and it came in handy now. It was not expensive and seemed thoughtful.
After giving out the hairpins, we went for a stroll in the square together. We brought Dabao and Xuanxuan along as the two little ones were talkative and the atmosphere wasn't easily dull.
"Boss, you should be nicer to your apprentice. You can't just chase him away like this."
Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Yi and said.
"This kid is just shameless, just ignore him."
Zhao Yi said indifferently.
Sure enough, as soon as he got off work in the afternoon, Xu Chao came over with a girl.
"Dabao, Xuanxuan."
Xu Chao came here every day during this period and had already become familiar with the two little guys. As soon as he called them, the two little guys hurriedly finished their meals and walked over, and several of them rushed towards the square.
After Zhang Jing finished her work here, she rushed to the square.
Seeing Xu Chao taking the girl to play "Eagle Catches Chicken" with a group of little kids, he suddenly felt a headache.
"This kid really has childish habits. He's almost 20 years old, but he still plays with a group of kids."
Zhang Jing sighed after walking back.
"What's going on?"
Zhao Yi smiled.
"Hey, some of the present-day ghosts are playing the game of eagle catching chicken in the square."
Zhang Jing sighed.
"You've been worrying about nothing all day. Why do you care about what others do? It's enough for us to play together. If you don't like it, can you come over here with us?"
Zhao Yi rolled his eyes at Zhang Jing and continued watching TV.
Lijia Village on the other side.
My second uncle Li Dalin rushed home with a look of joy on his face.
"What's wrong with the boss? Why are you so happy?"
Second aunt looked at Li Dalin and didn't know why her boss was smiling so happily.
"Good news. Xiaoyi found a job for Daya and the others in the city. The monthly salary is 17 yuan."
