Yu Li looked at Jia Dongsheng, then at the duck in his hand, and felt very envious.
When it comes to food, the Yan family is really not very decent. In this regard, neither Lou Xiao'e nor He Yushui actually lacks food. Only Yu Li has never had anything good to eat since she got married.
If other people feel the same way, that's fine.
But, they clearly married into the family one after the other, so why is there such a big difference between her and Lou Xiao'e and Qin Jingru?
Especially Qin Jingru.
People are afraid of comparison. The more Yu Li compares, the more unbalanced she feels.
Lou Xiao'e's family is well-off, and Yu Li knows that she cannot envy her, but what about Qin Jingru?
Yu Li looked at Qin Jingru and compared herself with her, and felt even more jealous.
A country girl, not very good looking, no better than me in any way, how come she married someone from the same courtyard but with such a huge difference in appearance?
"Alas, it's still my own vision problem!"
I sighed in my heart, but there is one good thing about Yu Li, that is, she never gives up and has the determination to live a good life.
She came to visit the Jia family today in order to establish a good relationship with the Jia family, especially Qin Jingru, so that Qin Jingru could help her say more good things in front of Jia Dongsheng and persuade him.
This will be the only way to take the opportunity to see if I can ask Jia Dongsheng to help me find a job.
Yu Li came with a bit of utilitarianism, but Lou Xiao'e was not so utilitarian. Of course, this was related to the strength of her family, and she did not need to curry favor with others.
But she is not without purpose.
Her purpose was very simple, which was to seek advice from Qin Jingru on how to get pregnant.
Ever since Qin Jingru became pregnant, everyone in the hospital has been watching her, waiting to see when she will be able to get pregnant.
In this day and age, if you don’t get pregnant within the first year of marriage, you might end up being known as a bedridden woman in the second year.
Lou Xiao'e didn't want to bear this reputation, so she would come to visit from time to time to talk about her pregnancy experience.
The topics they just talked about were about how to get pregnant, men's abilities, and so on.
After all, they are all women, and they are all married wives. Chatting privately is nothing.
Only He Yushui is still a virgin, but she is a grown-up girl and will get married sooner or later. There is no harm in knowing it earlier.
After putting the ducks away, Jia Dongsheng chatted with the girls for a while. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that Lou Xiaoe, Yu Li, and He Yushui looked at him in a strange way.
He Yushui was curious and shy, while Lou Xiaoe and Yu Li were curious and scrutinizing, as if to say, he doesn't look as strong as he is in terms of ability.
However, although it was a bit strange, Jia Dongsheng was still quite comfortable staying among women. Well, as a man, how many people don't want to be surrounded by beautiful women?
Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long. More than half an hour later, Xu Damao showed up.
"Dongsheng, what are you doing at home? I've already made the tea, and Nan Yi is here, but you're still dawdling."
"Hey, there's someone at home, so we chatted for a while."
Since they were here, Jia Dongsheng certainly couldn't continue chatting with the eldest girl and the young wife. Helplessly, he said hello and went to the backyard with Xu Damao to have tea.
When I arrived at the backyard, Nan Yi was already waiting.
Seeing Jia Dongsheng coming, he smiled and said, "Dongsheng, I will work under you from now on. Please take care of me."
"Haha, no problem, no problem."
Jia Dongsheng was also very happy. Nan Yi was definitely a capable general who could stand on his own. With Nan Yi around, Jia Dongsheng even felt that even if he didn't go to work, the quality of the steel mill's hospitality dishes would not decline much in the short term.
Of course, if he really wanted to be completely lazy, he would have to give Nan Yi more guidance, at least to make Nan Yi reach the level of a beginner in state banquets.
By that time, Jia Dongsheng could let go.
The position of deputy director of the cafeteria is vacant.
Once he becomes deputy director, he certainly won't be able to cook by himself. But with Nan Yi, the steel mill's hospitality dishes won't be bad either. What a win-win situation.
Jia Dongsheng had already calculated all of this. Now that Nan Yi has returned, how could he not be happy!
After the three of them sat down, Xu Damao started to show off: "Dongsheng, Nanyi, come and try the good tea I just brought back. Is it fragrant?"
"What kind of tea?"
Out of curiosity, Jia Dongsheng took a sip. Hiss, it was actually Longjing. He tasted it carefully and found that it was indeed Longjing before the rain.
"Da Mao, how much tea did you make? If there's any left, give me some."
He was not polite either, just like when Xu Damao wanted to eat duck, he was not polite either. Jia Dongsheng asked for it right away.
"Dongsheng, you have good taste. It's a pity that I only have a little over one or two ounces, so I can't even share them."
Seeing that Jia Dongsheng wanted it, Xu Damao became proud. He was just that kind of person. When he achieved a little success, he wanted to show off.
"Can't you even out more than one or two taels?"
Jia Dongsheng glared at him and said, "They say we split it in half when we meet. I'm not greedy. Just give me half an ounce. I won't share the extra ounce."
"Get lost! It's only a little over an ounce and you still want to share it. It's not even enough for me to drink."
Although he said so, Xu Damao drank his tea happily, and he looked as if he was about to say, "Please me, if you beg me, I will share some with you."
But will Jia Dongsheng ask for help?
In this day and age, he doesn't need to ask anyone for help. He can communicate with anyone on an equal footing, let alone Xu Damao.
Jia Dongsheng stopped talking and tapped the table lightly with his fingers, made an eight gesture, and then drank his tea happily.
Xu Damao and Nan Yi saw all of this.
Nan Yi was confused. What did this mean?
Moreover, he couldn't tell what was so good about this tea. He even felt that it was not as delicious as the Monkey King Jasmine Tea he bought.
Well, it’s not Nan Yi’s fault that he is ignorant. Although he likes drinking tea, he actually can’t tell the classification and quality of tea by tasting it.
Just like Xu Damao, he is also a person who only knows how to drink and only knows how to distinguish the quality of tea by its expensiveness. Even if you ask him to taste the quality of tea, he can't tell the difference.
However, he understood the meaning of Jia Dongsheng's gesture. The meaning was very clear: there were only eight pills left for next month.
Xu Damao has been buying pills from Jia Dongsheng, and only buys ten pills a month, five of which are for promotion and to be sold to others.
There was no way. Although Xu Damao had a good job and some extra income, the cash earned by a projectionist was still a fixed salary and could not buy many pills.
But he couldn't tell Lou Xiao'e that he was not able to function and had to rely on pills to survive, so he couldn't get the medicine from Lou Xiao'e. He could only rely on selling the five pills to earn money for the five pills he took.
Now Jia Dongsheng has reduced the number of pills from ten to eight. Although he spends less money, his happiness index is lower. Xu Damao no longer dares to act arrogantly and just backs off.
