Xiao Tao also sat down beside him, warmly put his arm around Gu Xiangwen's shoulders, and said to him with a smile: "Awen, we are good brothers. Since you work in the office of Junlin Company, you internal employees must have quotas to buy these things, right?"
Gu Xiangwen smiled and said, "I don't know yet. I have just completed the registration procedures. When I return to work, I will ask our director to see if our internal staff have any quotas for external sales. If so, I will definitely reserve one for you."
Xiao Tao laughed and said, "That's great, Awen. The happiness of my brothers and my family depends on you."
"Okay, let's just follow each other!"
He said to Xiao's mother and Xiao Tao with a little embarrassment: "Auntie, Tao, I want to stay at your house tonight, is that ok?"
Xiao Tao immediately said, "Of course you can, but can we sleep on the floor in the living room?"
Gu Xiangwen smiled and nodded, "Of course."
If he wasn't afraid of losing face, he would have rushed back to Yucheng to live overnight.
Thinking about their working environment and the spacious and bright dormitory, Gu Xiangwen became more and more grateful to Jun Ning for his support.
Mother Xiao sat with them for a while, then asked Xiao Tao to look after their three-year-old daughter while she went into the kitchen to cook.
Seeing the little girl staring at the cake, Xiao Tao opened it and took out a piece of mung bean cake for her to eat.
These cakes packaged by Junning have thirty-six pieces in a pack, including six kinds of cakes: osmanthus cake, peach blossom cake, water chestnut cake, mung bean cake, red bean cake, and taro cake. They taste very good, sweet and not greasy, and you will want to eat more after you have tried them.
Little Xiao Xingxing ate one piece and wanted to eat more, so she pushed her father's hand and asked her father to give her another piece.
She glanced at Gu Xiangwen shyly and started eating in small bites.
That cute little appearance made Gu Xiangwen feel itchy and he wanted to make money quickly to marry a wife and have cute babies.
When Xiao Tao saw his childhood friend staring at his precious daughter with envy in his eyes, he immediately understood what Gu Xiangwen was thinking.
Thinking of my childhood friend who is still single, I can't help but remind him, "Awen, my two kids are all good at cooking, but you're going to be 30 in less than two years, and you still haven't found someone to marry?"
Gu Xiangwen smiled bitterly, "You know my situation. I was in the countryside before, and I was unwilling to look for a wife there. I always thought that I could return to the city one day, and I didn't want to get married at all."
"Now I'm back in the city and have a job, but I'm penniless. I don't even have the money to marry a wife. How can I marry someone? It'll take at least a year to save up some money before I can do that!"
Xiao Tao said very righteously: "You can see if there is a suitable one first. If there is a suitable one, I can lend you some money so that you can marry a wife first. You see, the idiom of "settling down a family and establishing a career" means that you should settle down a family first and establish a career later. Having no money can't delay your marriage."
Gu Xiangwen was very touched by his childhood friend's strong support, but he still said: "I haven't found anyone suitable yet. I'll talk about it later. As long as I have a stable job, I won't have trouble finding someone to marry."
Xiao Tao thought about his current job, which was envied by everyone and fought for by everyone, but could not get it. So he did not have to worry about not finding someone to marry.
Xiao Tao had already pointed it out and he didn't try to persuade him any further. His childhood friend had his own ideas, and he respected and understood them.
He smiled and said to Gu Xiangwen, "Okay, as long as you know what's going on, your current job is pretty good. I heard that Junlin Company's products are of first-class quality and are all supplied to large units such as the military and our provincial government. Even department stores can't get supplies. If you work hard, things will definitely get better and better in the future."
Gu Xiangwen also nodded, "I will work hard and will not let down the benefactor who helped me. What about you? Are you doing well in the company?"
Xiao Tao smiled and replied, "As you know, there isn't much to do in our units. We just eat and drink for free, that's all. There's not much drive or motivation, but it's stable and comfortable."
Gu Xiangwen could hear the reluctance hidden in his friend's words and couldn't help but chuckle, "What you have now is what many people want to get, so don't be unsatisfied. Work hard and strive to get promoted a few more levels. Then you will have the final say and it will be easier for you to achieve some results."
As they were chatting, they heard someone knocking on the door.
Xiao Tao walked over to open the door, and when he saw that it was Gu Xiangrong, the seventh son of the Gu family, he turned around and said to Gu Xiangwen inside: "Awen, it's your seventh son who's here."
Gu Xiangwen stood up and walked to the door. Looking at his seventh brother who had grown taller than him, he asked gently, "Arong, is there something wrong?"
Gu Xiangwen watched his younger brothers and sisters grow up. The seventh and eighth brothers were still young when he went to the countryside, but they have grown up now.
Gu Xiangrong looked at his third brother, who was dressed inconspicuously but had a calm and composed temperament, and felt that such a third brother made him feel at ease and reliable.
Gu Xiangrong smiled at Gu Xiangwen and asked him cautiously, "Third brother, can I talk to you?"
Gu Xiangwen saw the expectation in his third brother's eyes and nodded, "Okay, let's go out and talk."
He said to Xiao Tao again, "A Tao, my brother has something to ask me, we are going to go out for a while and won't be back for dinner, you guys eat!"
Xiao Tao nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead and come back to stay later."
Gu Xiangwen smiled and replied: "Okay, then I'll go first."
Gu Xiangwen walked out and closed the door.
He asked Gu Xiangrong again, "You haven't eaten yet?"
Gu Xiangrong shook his head, "No!"
Gu Xiangwen said to him, "Let's go to the state-owned restaurant. I'll treat you to a good meal."
When Gu Xiangrong heard that his third brother invited him to a state-owned restaurant for dinner, he smiled happily and said, "Thank you, third brother."
These kids have grown up and have eaten in state-owned restaurants so many times that they cannot be counted on one hand.
Whenever his classmates ate at a state-owned restaurant, they would brag about it for a long time, making others envious.
Now that the third brother is back in the city and has a job again, he can treat his younger brother to a good meal. Thank you so much, third brother!
The two brothers went to a nearby state-owned restaurant.
It was dinner time and there were quite a few people sitting in the state-owned restaurant.
Gu Xiangwen saw a small table in the corner and said to Gu Xiangrong, "Arong, go sit there first. I'll go order the food."
"good."
Gu Xiangwen took a look at the menu and ordered a braised fish, a pan-fried tofu, a stir-fried vegetable dish, and half a pound of rice.
The waiter calculated the bill and said to Gu Xiangwen, "It's exactly four dollars. You also need a fish ticket, a tofu ticket, and half a pound of grain tickets. You don't need tickets for stir-fried vegetables."
The third update is finished. Thank you to the fairies who gave me tips and votes. Mmm~ (End of this chapter)
