Chu Yu knew her concerns. So many years of unresolved issues were not so easy to resolve. Besides, she was just an observer and could not truly empathize with the suffering Cai Jinquan had endured in his childhood.
She was just trying her best, hoping to act as a bridge and do her part.
“Ms. Zheng, I don’t expect you to agree immediately,” Chu Yu handed her a business card. “I know Mr. Cai works in real estate sales. He doesn’t have a high level of education and often ran into problems during interviews. His salary at his previous company wasn’t very good. My boyfriend also works in real estate. His project recently opened and sales are booming. They’re short of sales staff. The salary and benefits are also very good. If Mr. Cai doesn’t mind, you can try applying to my boyfriend’s company.”
Ms. Zheng's eyes lit up.
Cai Jinquan's educational background is average. Nowadays, the requirements for recruitment in Gangcheng are high. Large real estate companies require a university degree. Cai Jinquan's educational background is insufficient, so he cannot find a suitable job.
Ms. Zheng had heard of the company listed on Chu Yu's business card. Although it wasn't a high-end residential complex, it had excellent facilities and amenities. The complex even had a swimming pool and a shopping center. The building's structure was well-designed, and the interior designer was from Belgium.
Ms. Zheng's neighbors have recently started sleeping on the floor there, saying they're trying to seize the house.
The first phase was so popular that hundreds of people were vying for a single apartment, making it impossible to buy one. Ms. Zheng's neighbors are already waiting for the second and third phases.
For such desirable properties, real estate agents have no trouble selling them; they're essentially making money effortlessly. The higher the sales volume, the greater the bonuses and commissions, which are definitely much higher than at other companies.
Ms. Zheng happily held Chu Yu's hand, "I really don't know how to thank you. I think my husband would definitely be willing to give it a try."
Chu Yu nodded. Yesterday, Dai Donglin mentioned that the company was recruiting, and she thought of Cai Jinquan. She mentioned it to Dai Donglin, and he agreed.
“Mr. Cai has his own ideas, and I certainly can’t force him. But I think you are his wife. Even if he doesn’t go back, you can always take Xiajiaozi back to visit. Mr. Cai has always loved you. Even if he knows, he won’t say a harsh word.”
Ms. Zheng knew that what she said was true.
She was also tempted.
Cai Jinquan's salary is not high, and Xiajiaozi is in poor health and particularly troublesome. Ms. Zheng is willing but unable to take care of this child.
If her father-in-law is willing to help them and take care of Xiajiaozi, she can go out to find a job. With two people earning wages in the family and her father-in-law's help, there will be hope of buying a house.
Otherwise, they will live in low-rent housing for the rest of their lives.
Moreover, since Ms. Zhou had offered Cai Jinquan a job, and she couldn't refuse her request, Ms. Zheng finally nodded and agreed: "I'll go with you."
Uncle Cai's Want Want Ice Room was booming, and he was busy until 3 p.m. When there were fewer customers, he finished cleaning up the kitchen and was about to close up for a break when he saw Ms. Zhou, who had come to the store the day before yesterday, in the distance.
Uncle Cai wasn't in a good mood and was about to shoo her away with a cold face when he turned around and saw the little figure behind Miss Zhou.
This child looks familiar.
Uncle Cai immediately exclaimed with delight, "Shrimp dumplings!"
Hearing the sound, the old woman came out and exclaimed happily, "It really is Shrimp Dumpling! I've seen the photos you took. He was only four years old in the photos, and he'll be turning six soon. He looks a little different now, but you can tell he's your grandson!"
Uncle Cai was overjoyed. It was the first time Shrimp Dumpling had met him, and he was a little shy. However, Ms. Zheng and Chu Yu had reminded him to take him to see his grandfather, and that his grandfather's house had a lot of delicious food.
Perhaps it was a telepathic connection between the grandfather and grandson, but the little shrimp dumpling wasn't afraid at all and called out crisply, "Grandpa."
Uncle Cai was overjoyed. He picked up Xiajiaozi, kissed and rubbed him, and took out all his collected toys. He even said he would buy Xiajiaozi a tank and an airplane. Ms. Zheng, standing behind Chu Yu, spoke with emotion.
Because of his illness, Xiajiaozi rarely went out and was always timid. But when he was in front of Uncle Cai, he was like a little bull with a strong backer. He was not afraid of anyone and got along very well with Uncle Cai and Grandma Cai.
"Grandpa, Grandma," Ms. Zheng greeted them.
Uncle Cai knew her and knew that she and Cai Jinquan had lived a hard life. He had even told Grandma that this daughter-in-law was a good one. He also knew that Ms. Zheng had suffered a lot taking care of Xiajiaozi and admired her very much.
"Wanpei, come in quickly. If I had known you were coming, I would have asked your grandma to buy more fish and shrimp."
Ms. Zheng hadn't eaten yet and was naturally a little hungry. Chu Yu knew she was short of money and never had enough to eat, so he said to Uncle Cai:
"It's your daughter-in-law's first time visiting, why do you need to go out to buy food? Just make a portion of all the specialty snacks in your shop and let her try them."
Uncle Cai slapped his forehead. "Look at my brain! I'll do it right now. Wanpei, you and Xiajiao sit for a while. I'll make something for Xiajiao. Miss Zhou, make something to eat too."
Uncle Cai and Grandma Cai really didn't hold back, making almost everything they had in the shop, so Chu Yu naturally got to eat the egg tarts from Want Want Ice Room.
