While Jia Dongsheng and Jia Zhang were arranging the furniture, the eldest lady was at the uncle's house, accompanying her two children, feeling a little unhappy.
There was no other way. During the days that Jia Zhang stayed there, she ate with their family. The food was really good, and the originally thin children started to gain some weight on their faces.
Now, Aunt Yi has put all her thoughts on her pair of children. These days, Yi Xiaoyue and Yi Xiaoming have also made Aunt Yi feel the responsibility of being a mother.
A mother’s most important responsibility is to ensure that her children have enough to eat.
An old man's monthly salary is 99 yuan, which is enough for him to spend however he wants, and it is enough for him to eat meat every meal.
But it is difficult to buy meat even if you have money, but Jia Dongsheng, as a chef, has other ways to buy meat.
These days, whenever Aunt Yi Xiaoming and Yi Xiaoyue ate well and slept well, she was very happy. However, when the Jia family was going to move back home, Aunt Yi realized that this kind of life was about to end.
But it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t eat well, but what about the two children?
"Mom, are you unhappy?"
Yi Xiaoyue was a little older and more sensible. She had long noticed that the aunt was unhappy, and the expression on her face was a little ugly.
"No, Xiaoyue, mom is very happy."
The aunt knew that Yi Xiaoyue was sensitive, and she was afraid that because of other things, Yi Xiaoyue would feel that she was unlovable, so the aunt immediately showed a kind smile.
"Mom, don't be unhappy, Xiaoyue is very obedient." Yi Xiaoyue threw herself into the arms of an aunt and said timidly.
"I know, I know Xiaoyue is very good and obedient."
Hearing what Yi Xiaoyue said, Auntie's eyes turned red. She felt really distressed for such a sensible child.
As she spoke, the aunt hugged Yi Xiaoyue in her arms, with some thought in her eyes. She couldn't let such a sensible child not eat well every day while she was growing up.
It's just that she really doesn't have the ability to buy good things.
"Looks like I still have to ask Dongsheng for help!"
The aunt thought so in her heart, but she knew that this matter was not so easy to handle. There was no way. The other person finally managed to get some delicious food, but there might not be enough to eat at home. How could she possibly help others?
"It seems that Lao Yi has to think of a solution."
Having made up her mind, Auntie quickly began to coax Yi Xiaoyue. The little guy was in Auntie's arms, and although she comforted him, he was still a little uneasy. The little guy was so sensitive and thought too much.
......
It took about an hour to finally put the furniture away completely.
In the living room, Jia Dongsheng had already arranged the nine-piece sofa set he had bought. However, although the sofas were all made of huanghuali wood, they were still all wood, so they were not comfortable to sit on and were a bit hard on the buttocks.
"Mom, I'll get you some cotton tickets. You have nothing to do at home, so you can use the cotton to make some cushions and cover the sofa. This way, whether you want to lie down and rest for a while or sit on it, it will be much more comfortable."
"Okay, no problem."
Jia Zhang did not refuse this. When she worked, she would consider how much benefit it would bring to herself. If the benefit was not much and the work was not tiring, she would still do it.
But if there is no benefit in just working, it is impossible to do it.
If there are great benefits but the work is a bit tiring, Jia Zhang will not refuse.
For example, when making cotton cushions for a sofa, who spends the most time sitting on it?
Of course it’s her. She stays at home every day and doesn’t need to go to work. The sooner she finishes her work, the sooner she can sit down and enjoy it.
Jia Dongsheng didn't expect Jia Zhangshi to agree so readily, and was a little surprised. But since she agreed, Jia Dongsheng took out cotton coupons and cloth coupons from his pocket, plus ten yuan, and gave them to Jia Zhangshi.
"Hey, Mom, use up all these cotton and cloth coupons. If you can't use them all up for cushions, you can make some mattresses and quilts."
At this point, Jia Dongsheng took out another ten yuan and two bills from his pocket: "I'd better give you some more. Our mattress and quilt are a bit old. Let's replace them with new ones."
"You still have so much money?"
Jia Zhang was a little surprised and didn't care about how heavy the workload was. There was no other way. She had to make sofa cushions, quilts, and mattresses. These could not be completed in a few days. It would take at least a month to finish them.
"Mom, shouldn't I be rich?" Jia Dongsheng looked at his mother in astonishment and asked puzzledly.
"I just heard what the neighbors in the yard said. I calculated in my mind that you really have been spending a lot of money these days, and I thought your money was about to run out."
Jia Zhang took the ticket and money handed over by Jia Dongsheng and said with a smile.
"Haha, although I spend a lot, I also earn a lot."
Jia Dongsheng laughed. "You forgot, besides my current job as a chef, I also have medical skills. After so many years of study, it's impossible that I can't make a penny, right?"
This rhetorical question stunned Jia Zhang. She really forgot another skill of Jia Dongsheng. After all, Jia Dongsheng had always shown his excellence in cooking these days. On the contrary, he had never demonstrated his medical skills. Who would remember it?
"Dongsheng, tell me, how are you doing with your medical skills?" Jia Zhang asked out of curiosity.
"It's okay."
Jia Dongsheng said seriously, "We can treat minor illnesses, but serious illnesses still require hospitalization. My master's specialty is not treatment, but health preservation."
"I see."
Jia Zhang nodded thoughtfully, but she didn't understand much in her heart. She just understood one thing: colds and fevers should be curable, but serious ones should not.
"Then how much can you earn in a month with your medical skills?"
In fact, Jia Zhang has never felt very secure. There is nothing she can do. Her husband and eldest son are gone just like that. Even if Jia Dongsheng comes back and life at home gets better, she is not sure. What if Jia Dongsheng is gone one day?
After all, Jia Zhang herself was not very sure whether he was a person who would bring bad luck to her husband and children.
That’s why people say that Jia Zhang is a soul summoner. She is really that superstitious.
If Jia Dongsheng had not come back, she would have definitely thought that she was destined to be unlucky in marriage and would have acted even more extreme.
"Mom, how much I earn depends on how many patients I have. But even if I only have a few patients, my monthly income is equivalent to the salary of a chef at a steel mill."
Jia Dongsheng responded with a smile: "So, don't worry, although I spend a lot, I can also make money."
"That's good, that's good."
Hearing this, Jia Zhang became happy. Earning the same amount as a chef at a steel mill, that would mean a hundred yuan a month. My God, that's how much money that is.
