The next day, around eight in the morning.
Yu Li was lying on the kang to rest. Yan Jiecheng had already gone to work at the steel rolling mill. No one disturbed her, so she could have a good sleep.
When she came back last night, she saw some people drinking in the pub until very late. She got off work a little late and didn't get enough rest. She was planning to eat, take a nap, and then go back to work in the pub.
In a bar, no one would drink early in the morning, so the working hours are always after ten o'clock every day.
We arrived at the tavern, cleaned up, and it was already noon. Although there were not many people drinking at noon, there were still some guests here and there, chatting and gossiping. They were all bored people.
Yu Li has been working in the tavern for almost a month and is very satisfied with the job. When she was chatting with Xu Huizhen, she even heard her say that according to Jia Dongsheng's wishes, he wanted to train her well.
If it works out, she will be made the public manager of the tavern. Yu Li couldn't help but feel excited, because that would mean she would be promoted and her salary would increase.
This also made her plan to thank Jia Dongsheng very much, as it was indeed not in vain that she held on to this support.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, Yan Fugui's voice rang out outside the window.
Because the daughter-in-law was alone in the room, Yan Fugui, the old scholar, was much better than He Daqing. Considering the difference between father-in-law and daughter-in-law, he did not enter the room at all.
"Um?"
Yu Li opened her eyes confusedly and responded, "What's the matter?"
"Xiao Li, I have something to ask you. Come to our room for a moment."
Yan Fugui's voice came again. Yu Li heard it clearly. She felt helpless and couldn't even sleep. What else could she do? She put on her shoes and went to the next room.
But seeing Yan Fugui and the third aunt were both there, Yu Li was a little curious: "Dad, you didn't go to work?"
"I don't have classes this morning, so it's okay to go later."
Yan Fugui said casually that this was already an unspoken rule among the teachers.
As long as there are no classes, being late and leaving early is common.
"Dad, what's the matter with you calling me over?"
When she said this, Yu Li had already become secretly alert.
There's no way. This old man is really calculating. It's been such a long time, and he's still trying to take her salary from time to time. Fortunately, she's not a pushover and has never given in on this matter.
"That's what happened..."
Yan Fugui then recounted how Xu Damao and He Daqing had been waiting at the gate yesterday, waiting for Jia Dongsheng to get off work. He concluded, "There's definitely something fishy going on here. They're probably trying to get some advantage out of Dongsheng."
"Dad, what does this have to do with us?" Yu Li listened for a long time but couldn't find any connection with their family.
"You kid, why can't you think flexibly?"
Although they were all elders, the third aunt, who was also a woman, could not stand Yu Li and interrupted directly, "Since they want to plot against Dongsheng, if there is any benefit, if they can plot, then of course we can do the same, right?"
"Hey, you old woman, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Who would have thought that Yan Fugui, who always talked about calculations, would actually refute Third Aunt's words for the first time. This surprised Third Aunt, and even Yu Li was a little confused.
If there is benefit, just get involved and see if you can get any benefit. Isn't this the motto of this old man?
Why did you change your temper today?
"Is there something wrong with what I said?"
The third aunt was very puzzled: "Didn't you teach me all these words?"
Well, as the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." Third Aunt has followed Yan Fugui for most of her life. She hasn't learned anything else, but she has learned the art of scheming.
However, Yan Fugui has his own new insights into calculations.
"You've only learned a little of the knowledge I taught you. Your approach won't work when it comes to dealing with Dongsheng."
Yan Fugui shook his head with an expression of being fully confident in his decision. This was only the case when he was not waving his feather fan and wearing a silk scarf on his head. Otherwise, he would have had a bit of the feeling of Zhuge Liang planning and winning battles from thousands of miles away.
I only heard him say: "What a clever man Dongsheng is!"
"If others want to plot against him, can they do so?"
As he spoke, Yan Fugui smiled disdainfully: "Xu Damao, a villain, has some cleverness, but great wisdom has nothing to do with him."
"As for Old He, haha, he's willing to abandon his family and property just to follow a widow. What future can he have? How can people like them be a match for Dongsheng?"
In other words, there was no wine, otherwise these words would really be like discussing heroes over a glass of wine.
What's more, both Third Aunt and Yu Li nodded in agreement to what Yan Fugui said, and then stared at him eagerly as he continued speaking.
"So, there must be benefits to Dongsheng, otherwise they wouldn't be so flattering."
Yan Fugui liked the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's thirst for knowledge. He continued with satisfaction, "But if you want to take advantage of Dongsheng by scheming, you're just dreaming."
"Dongsheng is a person you have to befriend with sincerity. If you have feelings for him, he will reward you as long as you put in the effort."
"Dad, what do you mean?" Yu Li was a little confused, a little clear, and even a little ignorant.
“It’s very simple.”
Yan Fugui smiled and said, "Xiao Li, take two bottles of wine and give them to Dongsheng. Tell him that I've always wanted to treat him to a drink, but the world is bad and I can't get good food to make four dishes. So I'll give him two bottles of wine as a treat."
"Then what?" Yu Li asked.
"Hehe, as long as Dongsheng really has something good, then there's no need to say more. With Dongsheng's character, he will definitely leave a portion for us."
When saying this, Yan Fugui was very confident. This was because he had come into contact with Jia Dongsheng many times and thought he knew Jia Dongsheng better in the hospital.
"Old man, what if Dongsheng doesn't offer any benefits at all, or what benefits there are are useless to our family? Then wouldn't those two bottles of wine be given away for nothing?"
When they heard that they would be given two bottles of wine, they didn't mention any benefits, waiting for Jia Dongsheng to leave any benefits for them. If he didn't leave any benefits for them, wouldn't they be at a big loss?
"Long hair, short knowledge. Is Dongsheng the kind of person who would let others suffer?"
After glaring at the third aunt fiercely, Yan Fugui said confidently, "Even if Dongsheng doesn't get a share of the benefits this time, he will think of us first when he gets them next time, so it's not a loss."
Yu Li was completely convinced. This old man was indeed a calculating person.
She has a closer relationship with Jia Dongsheng, and she knows clearly that what Yan Fugui said is correct, Jia Dongsheng is the kind of person who will give you a tenth of respect if you give him an inch.
After sending two bottles of wine, there will definitely be a return gift, but I don’t know what this return gift will be?
