Chapter 426: Getting Something for Nothing



When Song Dalang heard her say this, he was also moved, "If I really become an accountant, you can also come to the South Courtyard to work, wouldn't it be wonderful for us to be husband and wife together?"

"What a beauty!"

Jiang Mei threw the handkerchief on his head and said, "I work so hard in the fields, and you don't even break a sweat all day. How can I feel balanced?"

"Can you balance even if you can't see?" Song Dalang asked.

"It's not a matter of seeing or not seeing," Jiang Mei said while combing her hair. "Although the work in the compound is tiring, the wages there are high and the food is not bad. As long as you do your job well, no one will be mad at you. So, even if you work in the South Courtyard and it's easy, your body won't be tired but your heart will be tired. Thinking about it, I feel balanced."

Song Dalang, "..."

Jiang Mei changed her clothes and combed her hair into a bun.

Song Dalang asked, "It would be a little later if you were going to bed. Why are you still changing your clothes and combing your hair?"

Jiang Mei came over and pinched Song Dalang's chin and said, "You useless little scholar, you speak in such a flowery way, it really makes me feel itchy."

"Amei..." Song Dalang shouted helplessly.

Jiang Mei chuckled and said, "Let's go, let's go find the boss."

Dongshan South Courtyard.

Baozi and Yao Er were coaxing Bao Yaozu to eat minced meat porridge.

"Master, Yaozu is too naughty. I think you have to beat him up before he will behave himself." Yao Er said angrily.

Baozi glared at him and scolded, "Children are all naughty. Look at how strong his arms and legs are..."

As he was talking, Baozi was kicked in the face by a child. He didn't get angry, but picked up his eldest son and started playing with him.

There was a knock on the door and Yao Er went to open it.

Seeing that it was Song Dalang and Jiang Mei, Yao Er straightened his back and spoke with authority, "It's so late, what can I do for you two?"

Jiang Mei smiled and stepped forward and said, "I hope Madam will forgive me for disturbing you so late at night. It's really about the farm work. I thought I couldn't delay, so I came here."

Although Yao Er didn't know what could happen at this late hour, she was very pleased with Jiang Mei's respectful attitude.

"Wait a minute, I'll go talk to my master." Yao Er said, waving his handkerchief.

Jiang Mei forced a smile and didn't collapse.

After a while, Yao Er asked people to come in.

Baozi sat in the living room, drinking tea from a tea bowl, and asked without even raising his eyes, "It's so late, is there something wrong?"

"Mr. Bao, I got a job in the compound." Jiang Mei said.

Baozi then looked at her and asked, "Why? Are you here to treat me to a drink?"

"You can have wine anytime you want," Jiang Mei said with a smile, "In the future, my man will work under you, and I hope you will value him."

Baozi said slowly, "I am familiar with the situation in the compound. As far as I know, you are just a temporary worker."

Jiang Mei said, "I will sign a long-term contract in a month."

"What on earth are you here for?" Baozi asked openly.

"Mr. Bao, with such a big business, don't you want to hire an accountant?" Jiang Mei was actually very nervous when she asked this.

Baozi looked at Song Dalang who had been silent the whole time. The man was honest, but the woman...

"There are so many people outside waiting for work, why do I have to have him?" Baozi said deliberately in embarrassment.

Jiang Mei said what she had prepared, "My man has worked under you for so long, you know best how well he does his job."

"There are indeed many people waiting for work outside, but how many of them can read and write? Even if they can read and write, they are not from this village. Now those who can read and write in the village are all graduates of the Song Family Academy. You can't trust them if you employ them."

"Boss Bao, do you think this is true?"

Everyone in the village knows about the feud between the old Song family and Song Yuehua. Baozi must be well aware of it, and Jiang Mei took advantage of this.

Baozi laughed and said, "You are quite eloquent."

Just when Jiang Mei thought Baozi would give in.

Unexpectedly, Baozi said, "Since you have found a job in the compound, why don't you find one for your man as well."

Hearing this, Song Dalang looked nervous, fearing that he would lose this job in the South Courtyard.

Jiang Mei laughed awkwardly, then said, "Boss, I won't beat around the bush with you. We came here today to ask for a long-term accountant job for Dalang. As long as you say the word, I will try to find a way to gain a foothold in the compound even if it costs me my life."

Baozi pretended not to know and asked, "What use is it to me if you work in the compound?"

Jiang Mei said, "Boss Bao, let's not beat around the bush. With the relationship between the Song family and Song Yuehua, you can completely trust me."

"Okay." Baozi stood up and said.

"Boss, then you..." Jiang Mei asked nervously.

Baozi waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it after you sign the long-term employment contract."

Jiang Mei heaved a sigh of relief only when the couple came out of the South Courtyard.

"Amei, why didn't you tell me before you came so that I could help you?" Song Dalang blamed himself.

Jiang Mei asked, "Why do you need my help? Do you think it's better for people to find an accountant who is smooth-talking or dumb and honest?"

"When you start scolding others, why don't you even let yourself go?" Song Dalang said, "When you go to work in the compound, you really have to..."

Jiang Mei giggled and said, "Let's go to the Song family now."

"What?" Song Dalang was confused.

Song family.

Song Yuehua had just laid down when Jiang Mei and Song Dalang came to visit her.

"Is there anything wrong so late at night?" Song Yuehua asked, leaning against the door.

Jiang Mei really felt that Song Yuehua treated the people of the Song family with no respect or courtesy at all.
