This is not the place to talk. Firstly, people in the community are still watching the fun, and secondly, I am afraid that the tigress will rush out.
Tian Yuzhu said, "Brother Gu, find a quiet place. I have something to tell you."
Although Gu Dagang was confused, he didn't know what the other party wanted to talk to him about.
But now he has nothing to do all day long. Although his pockets are empty, what he has the most is time.
So the three of them found a small restaurant that had just opened, and Tian Yuzhu ordered three bowls of mutton rice noodles.
As a result, Gu Dagang's eyes lit up when he saw the rice noodles, and he quickly finished the whole bowl.
Tian Yuzhu ordered another bowl, and he continued to eat with great relish. Wiping his mouth, he said, "Don't worry if you laugh at me. A loser like me doesn't even have the right to eat at home. I didn't have any food yesterday. Thank you, Comrade Yuzhu."
"Don't be polite, just call me Tian Yuzhu from now on." Tian Yuzhu looked at him like this and remembered that he was engaged in speculation and profiteering in the black market, all for the purpose of supporting his family.
But now, his job has changed and his salary is not as high as before. His wife's attitude changed instantly and she even refused to let him eat.
Zhang Xiaoling slammed the table in indignation. "That woman is so despicable! You two are husband and wife after all, and yet you can do something like not letting me eat. You're really not human."
"Okay, stop talking about me." Gu Dagang shook his hand. "My family's little troubles are not worth mentioning. If it weren't for the two kids, I would have walked away long ago. Tell me quickly, what do you want from me?"
Tian Yuzhu told him all her plans.
Originally, she just wanted to ask Gu Dagang to help find someone and give him some benefits.
Seeing his situation now, she changed her mind: "Brother Gu, if you can find the right person and you are willing, I would like to ask you to be the supervisor. After all, I don't know how to do plumbing and electrical work. Even if I did, I have a baby to take care of, so I can't watch over it all day long."
"Help me keep an eye on them. Make sure all the work is done according to my design and ensure the quality is perfect. After the project is finished, I'll give you a hundred dollars as a thank you fee."
"One hundred dollars?"
Zhang Xiaoling screamed, not giving any face: "Sister, you're charging too much. The best worker only makes 30 yuan a month. When Brother Gu was a buyer, he only made 15 yuan a month. You can't pay him so much."
Gu Dagang, who was sitting nearby and listening, looked embarrassed and said awkwardly, "Yes, I'm charging too much. If you really want me to be a supervisor, then just charge me a dozen bucks."
"It's okay. I'm willing to give you this money because my conditions are very strict. You must supervise them to complete the project. There can't be any mistakes. So it's not easy for you to do it."
Tian Yuzhu smiled and said, "Brother Gu, you need to find the best plumber. The money is settled, so let's not talk about it anymore."
Gu Dagang knew that the other person was helping him, and his eyes almost turned red with gratitude. He didn't even dare to look up and meet the other person's gaze.
He just nodded and said, "Don't worry. Life is tough for every family right now. I know a few people in the aquatic and electrical industries who want to take on some private work after get off work. The skills are not a problem at all."
"Okay, I won't treat them unfairly in terms of salary."
The matter of finding a plumber was settled. After eating the rice noodles, Tian Yuzhu was anxious to go back and see the baby.
Zhang Xiaoling was in a very good mood because she knew Shi Weiqiang would come during the Chinese New Year. She even hummed a song on the way back to the People's Canteen.
She just felt that Tian Yuzhu paid Gu Dagang too much salary.
In Zhang Xiaoling's heart, Gu Dagang was not worthy of sympathy. Who told him to treat her cousin Jinju like that before?
Gu Dagang was in a hurry to find someone, and without him saying anything, the other person immediately took the job.
Not to mention twenty or thirty, even ten dollars will do it.
The entire search process took less than two hours.
Gu Dagang just returned home, but as soon as he entered the door, a cup was thrown at him.
This kind of thing has happened too many times during this period, so many times that Gu Dagang has developed a stress response and can almost catch the cup as soon as the other party throws it at him.
"Are you looking for death? Where are you going to die, you coward? You're not working but you're still running around. If you have the guts, go die outside."
Gu Dagang ignored her: "..."
Walk over quietly and coax the baby.
The woman kept cursing behind him, first belittling him in various ways, and then cursing all eighteen generations of his Gu family's ancestors.
Unexpectedly, Gu Dagang, who had been patient all this time, couldn't help it this time. He turned around and slapped her in the face: "Shut up."
The woman was stunned by the blow and couldn't recover for several seconds. She instinctively covered the side that was hit with her hands.
After a long while, he roared, "Well, you coward, you dare to hit me? I'll beat you to death today."
As a result, she rushed forward several times, but was pushed back by Gu Dagang.
The woman was so angry that she cried, "Divorce, I want to divorce you today."
Gu Dagang yelled, "Divorce me if you want, put the baby down and get out of here."
"Don't even think about it. The kids are mine. I will take them away and you will never see them again in this life." The woman spat and cursed the most unpleasant words. She rushed into the bedroom excitedly to pack up her few clothes.
I collected a bag, pulled the big one, picked up the small one and was ready to go out.
Gu Dagang didn't stop him or pull him: "Go away, don't even think about coming back after you walk out of this door."
Although this house is shabby, it is big enough for a home.
It was also the money that Gu Dagang saved by working hard to earn money when he was a purchasing agent, and then he bought it from others.
Today he was forced into a corner and made up his mind to say something harsh.
The woman was confused again.
She had nowhere to go. Her child was so young that she would be despised by her brother and sister-in-law if she went back to her parents' home.
In addition, she has no income and no spare money. If she leaves, she will have to raise the child alone, which is impossible.
"You are so heartless."
The woman standing at the door was finally stopped by reality. She finally cried and cursed, then threw her bag heavily to the ground.
The two kids at home don’t even know how to cry anymore, they have long been accustomed to their parents’ quarrels.
Especially the eldest child, he was very sensible and took his younger brother's hand to go into the house to play.
Gu Dagang, who was sitting on the stool, remained indifferent and silent until the woman had scolded and cried enough and had no strength left to move.
He then said in a deep voice, "I just took a job outside. I'm working as a supervisor for someone after get off work. I don't know how long it will take, but they said they'll give me a hundred yuan as a thank you fee."
"If you want to live a good life, just take care of the kids and clean up the house, and I'll take care of the money. If you keep making a fuss like this all day, then we'll get a divorce. It's not like we've never divorced before. Don't think I'm easy to bully. If you make me angry, I'll divorce you if you don't."
The woman was both happy and worried when she heard his words: "Really? They really gave you a hundred dollars?"
What worries her is that she feels Gu Dagang has become tougher, and if she makes trouble again, they will probably get divorced.
