Perhaps it was because they shared a secret that Wei Hua and Yang Tao's relationship grew even stronger. The next morning, the two of them got out of bed very early.
Even while brushing their teeth, they only had eyes for each other; thankfully, they didn't stick their teeth up their noses. They pretended to be affectionate in the kitchen for a while before starting their meal. After dinner, Yang Tao even saw Wei Hua to the door. Their sweet demeanor made many people envious.
Wei Hua didn't care about what others thought. He went to the steel rolling mill and worked as usual. He was only slightly surprised when he saw that Qin Huairu was acting normally during lunch.
Because the system's retaliation is usually swift, Qin Huairu is now acting no differently than a normal person. Although somewhat surprised, Wei Hua didn't concern himself with Qin Huairu's affairs and returned to the workshop after finishing his meal.
Shortly after returning to the workshop, he found many people discussing the performance evaluation. Some even brought it up in front of Wei Hua. Wei Hua took it all in stride.
The system's rewards alone are enough for him to live on for a lifetime. Wei Hua doesn't need to pay too much attention to this matter like others. With his current skills, he can obtain an eighth-level fitter's certificate at any time.
But sometimes being too amazing isn't necessarily a good thing. I'm already a level four fitter, and level one a year from now on is just right.
Wei Hua didn't want to participate in this assessment either. But everyone else was discussing it, so Wei Hua could only chime in from time to time.
Sometimes, being too unsociable isn't necessarily a good thing. Especially since the people in the steel mill are completely different from those in the courtyard. He quite liked his coworker Weihua. He would occasionally joke with them or participate in group activities.
Time seems to fly by when you're happy, and before you know it, it's time to go back to work. In this phase of high-volume production, no one takes work lightly.
When it was time to go to work, everyone worked diligently until the end of the workday before leaving the steel rolling mill. On the way back, even more people were discussing it.
"Hua Zi, are you going to participate in this assessment?"
"I only became a Level 4 worker last year, and I'm not very confident yet. I won't participate this time. I'll see if I can pass the Level 5 fitter exam in the second half of the year. Six months should be enough time for me to hone my skills."
"But you can take this opportunity to advance further. Your family's culinary skills are not just for show. Everyone who lives in the courtyard house makes my mouth water every time I smell the aroma from your house."
"I imagine being a Level 6 chef shouldn't be too difficult for you. Your family's life will be much better then."
Everyone likes nice words. Seeing Wei Hua flattering him, Sha Zhu's smile widened considerably. However, this made Xu Damao, who was walking home with him, somewhat unhappy.
Everyone else had a chance to be promoted, but he didn't. He didn't know who had leaked the story to the steel mill, which damaged his reputation.
Like Xu Damao, Qin Huairu also had a bitter look on her face. Because Qin Huairu also had a disciplinary record, she had no intention of taking the assessment. Even if she passed the assessment, she would fail the political review.
This made Qin Huairu look at Xu Damao. If it weren't for Xu Damao deliberately messing with her last time, her master wouldn't have been prejudiced against her, and her reputation wouldn't be in this state now.
Maybe she could become a level two fitter. Once she became a level two fitter, she would earn nearly 40 yuan a month. Thinking about her own meager salary of 27.5 yuan, Qin Huairu felt a pang of envy towards others.
Qin Huairu dared not make any small movements, because Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao were watching her. In order to get back to her daughter as soon as possible to breastfeed, Qin Huairu could only quicken her pace.
The others didn't pay any attention to Qin Huairu and continued chatting. They slowly walked back to the courtyard house. Once back inside, everyone went home, for everyone has their own family.
Only Yi Zhonghai, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, kept a close eye on Qin Huairu and Wei Hua. If it weren't for the Jia family's schemes, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state. If it weren't for He Yuzhu's extortion, his family's life wouldn't be what it is now.
Yi Zhonghai never forgot what happened in the past, but because he was having a hard time, he buried all his hatred in his heart.
Seeing them all living better and better lives, how could Yi Zhonghai be happy? So, all the way, Yi Zhonghai was thinking about how to get revenge on them.
Yi Zhonghai couldn't find fault with anyone else, but he could find fault with Bang Geng. Just thinking about Bang Geng's hobbies made a smile appear on Yi Zhonghai's lips. If Yi Zhonghai hadn't habitually covered his entire face, he probably would have terrified countless people.
Seeing that others had returned to their courtyard houses, Yi Zhonghai followed them inside.
The first thing Wei Hua did upon returning to the courtyard house was to close the door. Then he ran to the room to ease the burden on his wife.
Sometimes having a great figure isn't necessarily a good thing. For example, Yang Tao's breasts were constantly engorged with milk, and Wei Hua had to help lighten Yang Tao's burden every day.
Yang Tao was aware of her husband's little scheme, and she always cooperated by eating various foods that promoted lactation, such as crucian carp soup, pig's trotter soup, and chicken soup. Even after her postpartum confinement period, Yang Tao continued to eat these foods, all to satisfy her husband's desire.
Having just relieved Yang Tao of her burden, Wei Hua couldn't resist any longer. After all, Yang Tao had been in postpartum confinement for almost a month. Now that Yang Tao was finally recovered, Wei Hua immediately took advantage of the emotionally moved Yang Tao.
At that moment, the system's voice rang in Wei Hua's mind. At any other time, Wei Hua would definitely check to see who was sending him this perk.
At this critical moment, Wei Hua didn't even bother with his system. He immediately started groping Yang Tao.
Yang Tao didn't refuse. After all, she had been pregnant for so long and had spent a month in postpartum confinement after giving birth, so she naturally had to reward her husband.
It's been half a month since I finished my postpartum confinement. If I don't take good care of my husband now, he might change his mind, and I'll be the one who suffers.
The fight lasted for almost an hour. If the child hadn't cried, the fight might have continued. After getting dressed, the two tidied their appearance before finally leaving the room.
Carrying the baby fell to Wei Hua, while cooking became Yang Tao's responsibility. Compared to Wei Hua, Yang Tao's cooking skills were far superior.
While taking care of the child, she checked the system. Only then did she realize that she had lost more than half a bag of formula. Qin Huairu was definitely the one in the courtyard who was short of formula.
Although this critical hit was only a hundredfold, it was still enough to give Qin Huairu a run for her money. The reward was still very tempting; although it wasn't anything supernatural, it would come in very handy later.
The reward this time is the recipe and production process for instant noodles. Although there is no equipment, in just over ten years, this will definitely be a golden goose that lays golden eggs.
As for the half-bag of milk powder, Wei Hua didn't even mention it. Since understanding Yang Tao's system, Wei Hua no longer cared about his child's food, clothing, and other necessities. Because these things were inexhaustible within Yang Tao's system.
Meanwhile, Yi Zhonghai was plotting with the deaf old lady how to trick the Jia family. Yi Zhonghai knew that to take action against Bang Geng, they had to do it when Qin Huairu was away, as Bang Geng was most likely to make a mistake then.
Neither Jia Zhangshi nor Gu Chunyan cared much about Bang Geng. Aside from being responsible for Bang Geng's meals, Gu Chunyan generally ignored him.
As for Jia Zhangshi, aside from taking care of the younger one, she usually doesn't pay much attention to her eldest grandson. It's not that Jia Zhangshi doesn't care about him, but the previous incident has created a rift between them. Plus, Banggeng is now Liu's grandson.
It had little to do with Jia Zhangshi. Given Qin Huairu's personality, she would never let Banggeng take care of Jia Zhangshi in her old age, so Jia Zhangshi gradually stopped paying attention to Banggeng.
Upon hearing Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old woman's plan, Wei Hua knew that Bang Geng was likely doomed this time. When it came to manipulating people's hearts, both Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old woman were shrewd and calculating.
The Liu family is already struggling financially. If the deaf old lady really does what Yi Zhonghai said and raises two chickens in the backyard, Banggeng will steal the eggs even if he doesn't steal the chickens.
The deaf old lady rarely leaves the courtyard. If Banggeng tries to steal, he's almost always caught red-handed. Even though the old lady's health is much worse than before, Banggeng is also lame. No matter what he does, he's not fast. With Banggeng's current strength, he's no match for the deaf old lady.
Wei Hua didn't concern himself with the feud between the two families; in fact, he hoped they would beat each other up as badly as possible. That way, he could reap the benefits without getting caught up in any messy affairs.
