676: A high status in the Zhou family
Jia Song was originally worried that Zhou Ziheng and Yu Xiaoye were both strong men and weak women, and Yu Xiaoye was a daughter-in-law from another place with no background or power in her family. She wondered if she would be looked down upon and wronged if she married into the Zhou family.
Now it seems that I have overthought——
With Yu Xiaoye's arrogance, I'm afraid this family can't subdue her.
Yu Xiaoye has a very high status in the Zhou family.
For breakfast, Yu Xiaoye drank a bowl of millet porridge, ate a boiled egg, and two buns stuffed with cabbage and tofu. After eating, she went to the phone and called the office of Director Xiao of the Construction Bureau according to the number Xiaobai gave her.
Director Xiao had already received a call from his daughter Xiao Ping. When he heard that someone was looking for his daughter, he immediately asked someone to call Xiao Ping over.
Yu Xiaoye talked to Xiao Ping on the phone and readily agreed on a meeting place.
Yu Xiaoye also said that he would bring another person, Jia Song, the publicity officer of the Wufen Field, who was Director Jia's younger brother and the person whose position was replaced by Xiaobai.
Xiao Ping was even happier when she heard this.
After hanging up the phone, Yu Xiaoye turned around and said to Zhuang Huaijian:
"Aunt, Brother Jia and I are going out to meet some friends from Beidahuang for dinner. They're the same friends we met at the Construction Bureau last time."
"Go ahead and ask your friend to take you out for some fun."
"I'll be back after dinner if nothing else."
"good."
Yu Xiaoye was about to go out with Jia Song, but Zhuang Huaijian stopped her again:
"Wait a minute!"
Yu Xiaoye didn't know what Zhuang Huaijian wanted to say, so he saw Zhuang Huaijian go back to the bedroom and then come out with a roll of money in his hand:
"When you go out to eat, bring more money. Hengzi is busy with work all day and doesn't know how to take care of you. He doesn't even ask if you have money on you. He's as careless as his father."
While scolding his son, Zhuang Huaijian stuffed money into Yu Xiaoye's hand.
Yu Xiaoye declined:
"Auntie, I have money on me."
"Take the money if you have it. It won't hurt to bring some extra money when you go out to meet friends."
Yu Xiaoye didn't know whether he should accept it or not.
Jia Song instigated from the side:
"Just take it if you give it to me."
Yu Xiaoye knew that the old lady was not pretending to refuse. Ever since she came to this family, Zhuang Huaijian had always been kind to her sincerely. To be honest, he was even more considerate to her than Zhou Ziheng. The old lady had considered many things that Zhou Ziheng could not even think of.
Yu Xiaoye knew he couldn't refuse, so he accepted it with a smile:
"Thank you, auntie."
"Go ahead."
Jia Song said:
"Aunt Zhuang, we'll be back after dinner."
"good."
Yu Xiaoye and Jia Song walked out of the Zhou family's gate.
As soon as he went out, Jia Song couldn't help muttering:
"That's fine, you have a solid position in the Zhou family. You can sleep until almost ten in the morning, have meals ready, and even get pocket money when you go out. How much is it?"
Yu Xiaoye secretly took out the money and counted it, and found four big unity notes neatly arranged.
Jia Song exclaimed:
"Damn, that's so much! It's more than my monthly salary!"
Yu Xiaoye chuckled and put the money in his pocket again:
"Brother Jia, now I understand what you said."
"Which sentence?"
"You said that even if Mr. Zhou became paralyzed, there would still be plenty of people rushing to take care of his excrement and urine. I didn't believe it before, but now I do."
“-------”
The two walked out. Yu Xiaoye planned to go out and take the bus, but Jia Song went home and rode a bicycle out, so the two of them rode their bicycles out.
I rode a bicycle to the agreed meeting place and met Bai Zongdan and Xiao Ping at the door of a large hotel that looked quite historic.
While on the farm, Bai Zongdan and Jia Song met each other, but they were not very familiar with each other and had no contact.
It was only after arriving in the capital that Bai Zongdan learned from Xiao Ping that he had been recruited to the Construction Bureau by taking Jia Song's place. So when he saw Jia Song, Bai Zongdan shook Jia Song's hand enthusiastically:
"Brother Jia, nice to meet you."
"Oh, don't worry, don't be so polite. We are all from the Great Northern Wilderness. We don't accept such tricks."
Seeing that Jia Song had the carefree personality of a Beijing native, Xiao Ping couldn't help but say:
"Brother Jia, you and Director Jia have very different personalities. Oh, by the way, why hasn't Director Jia come to work these past two days?"
"Him? He's in the hospital and doesn't have time to come."
"Ah, Director Jia is sick?"
Jia Song smiled:
"There's something wrong with my brain."
“------”
Yu Xiaoye urged:
"Come on, let's go in and sit down and talk."
"Yes, go in and sit down and talk."
The four of them entered the restaurant and found a seat.
This restaurant looks very upscale, not too crowded, and not as noisy as a small restaurant.
After we sat down, a waiter in a white apron came up to ask what we wanted.
Xiao Ping ordered four dishes and four bottles of beer.
Yu Xiaoye said:
"Xiaobai, Xiaoping, do you have time in a couple of days?"
"What are your plans?"
Yu Xiaoye said shyly:
"The director and I will be having a wedding banquet at home in a few days, and I'd like to invite you all to come over for a drink."
"You and the director are getting married?!"
Bai Zongdan's surprised shout attracted the attention of people at the surrounding tables.
Xiao Ping glanced at Bai Zongdan with a reproachful look:
"Why, what else are you unwilling to accept?"
There was a strong sense of jealousy in his tone.
Xiao Bai's face turned red after being choked by Xiao Ping, and he explained:
"No, I'm happy for them."
He turned to Yu Xiaoye and said, stuttering a little:
"Congratulations, I'm really happy for you. Director Zhou is a good man and very capable. You two will definitely be very happy when you get married."
"Thank you, so are you coming?"
"Come, of course I will come." Xiao Ping replied.
"Well, then you can just go over there."
The food and wine were served, and the four of them clinked their glasses and drank beer.
Yu Xiaoye savored the beer with an intoxicated look on his face.
Jia Song looked at Yu Xiaoye warily:
"Just drink a couple of sips, and forget it. If you come back drunk and Aunt Zhuang sees you, I won't be able to explain it to her."
"It's okay. If I drink too much, go find Brother Heng and ask him to take me home."
Jia Song: "I'm looking for him? That's even more confusing."
The fact that I can’t explain it clearly is secondary. I might even get beaten up.
Yu Xiaoye smiled:
"Don't worry, I won't drink too much."
Yu Xiaoye really took a few sips and stopped drinking.
She really didn't dare go back drunk, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.
While eating, Bai Zongdan asked Jia Song:
"Brother Jia, why didn't you want to be transferred back to the city before?"
Jia Song replied indifferently:
"What's so good about the capital? It's not as comfortable as the Great Northern Wilderness. I just like the vastness and openness of the Great Northern Wilderness."
Bai Zongdan and Xiao Ping looked at each other silently.
Yu Xiaoye gave the two of them another look that said "ignore him" and then advised:
"Brother Jia, I know you didn't want to come back before because of You Wenyue. Now that You Wenyue has been arrested, you can consider transferring him back if you can't see him."
"Why, do you think I'm annoying and want me to leave the Great Northern Wilderness?"
"No, I think that in the next few years, the educated youth will inevitably return to the city. There are so many educated youth in the Great Northern Wilderness. If they all return to the city, the farm will be short of manpower and will definitely face decline. Instead of staying in the Great Northern Wilderness, it is better for them to return to the capital early to develop."
