Chapter 192 The salary is high.
"Aunt Chen, your adorable granddaughter really looks like the attendant of Guanyin, so fair and chubby, she's definitely destined for great fortune!"
"Old Chen's family really knows how to raise children. Look how well they've raised their little girl!"
"Oh my, my sweet baby is wearing little leather shoes! Did you buy them at the department store? I've never met anyone who loves their granddaughter more than you, Auntie!"
Hearing this, Ma Xiulian was even happier than if she had received the praise herself. She couldn't stop smiling and told them that the little dress and shoes were bought by Jiang Manyun for her beloved granddaughter.
The wives looked on with even more envy; the Chen family's precious child was truly blessed!
Not only did Ma Xiulian, who favored sons over daughters, dote on her, but even the Gu family adored her.
Everyone in the commune knew how well-off Director Gu's family was.
Jiang Manyun is now working at a department store, and she's even a manager there, with a high salary!
Zhao Fangfang, who always wanted to compete with Helian Jiao, was extremely jealous.
She's the brigade leader's daughter, and she's never even worn such a beautiful and stylish dress and leather shoes before. How come that fatso gets to wear them?!
And it was a gift from Gu Tingyun's mother!!
Just then, Gu Tingyun came out of the toilet, so he immediately went up to her and said, "Gu Tingyun, let's play shuttlecock! This is a brand new shuttlecock that was just made yesterday. I haven't let anyone else play it."
Gu Tingyun said coldly as always, "I won't kick it."
Then, turning to the little hamster, she asked without a hint of coldness, "Sweetie, where's your soap?"
Young Master Gu, who has obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness, always washes his hands with soap after using the toilet.
"The milk is in the cupboard."
Helian Jiao knew about his problem, so she took him back to the room to get the soap.
Ma Xiulian brought such a precious item as soap into the house last night.
With so many people around today, she'd be heartbroken if some clueless person used it!
Zhao Fangfang followed the two of them eagerly, saying, "Gu Tingyun, we have soap at home too. If you play with me, I'll give you the soap from home."
Gu Tingyun pretended not to hear, because he knew that if he responded, even if it was a rejection, Zhao Fangfang would have more to say.
It's better to just ignore her and let her leave on her own when she gets bored. Otherwise, she'll get a little punch from the hamster and run home crying to tell on the hamster.
After this happened several times, Jiang Manyun had a special talk with him, asking him to keep an eye on Guaibao and stop him from hitting Zhao Fangfang.
After all, Zhao Mancang is the captain. If he is determined to target them, the Chen family will likely have a hard time.
When Zhao Fangfang ignored him, she said again, "Gu Tingyun, my mom bought some malted milk powder from the department store. If you come to my house, I'll give you some malted milk powder. It's so sweet and delicious!"
Her tone was full of boasting and pride. A can of malted milk powder costs two yuan. No one else in the whole commune could afford it except for her family.
"Clang—"
The next second, Gu Tingyun led the little hamster into the house and closed the door.
Zhao Fangfang immediately pouted, looking aggrieved. She stood at the door waiting patiently for a while before turning around and running out to play with her friends.

In the courtyard, Old Lady Li, with her face covered in bruises, came to visit again with her two grandsons, and this time she came empty-handed.
Someone with sharp eyes noticed and deliberately asked loudly, "Hey! Old Mrs. Li, why didn't you bring anything to the banquet?"
