Chapter 901: Real Version of Playing House
On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, at 8:30 in the morning, the winter sun shone across the river dam.
Zhang Ruyun was wiping his motorcycle at the door again. He used a rag dipped in warm water to wipe it bit by bit, very seriously. However, when he thought of his girlfriend who was drifting away, he could not hide the sadness on his face.
Tongtong, the little cotton-padded jacket, whispered to Jiang Ning, "He seems to be about to cry."
Jiang Ning held a porcelain bowl with candied dates and rice porridge in it. He took a sip and said, "Men don't cry until they are sad."
Zhang Ruyun's mouth twitched, she glanced at him and looked away.
He was dissatisfied: "I have a girlfriend who I hold hands with every day. What do you, Jiang Ning, have? You are always hanging out with Xue Yuantong. What can a little girl like her do for you?"
Yes, Zhang Ruyun has a girlfriend.
Chuchu, wearing a plain down jacket, walked out of the house, holding two large homemade steamed buns in her hands. The buns were very white, but pale in comparison to Xue Chuchu's slender hands that were so white that they looked translucent.
"Eat some buns instead of just drinking porridge." Xue Chuchu said.
Jiang Ning said: "The porridge you cooked is indeed delicious, with a lot of rice soup, which quenches thirst."
Xue Chuchu just smiled faintly after hearing this. Jiang Ning was always like this. Although he seldom did any work, he would always praise her and compliment her. Chuchu clearly saw through it, but every time she heard it, she would still feel happy from the bottom of her heart.
Perhaps it was the environment she grew up in that made her lack a sense of recognition.
Jiang Ning took a bite of the bun and glanced at Zhang Ruyun.
Xue Yuantong thought to himself: "Humph, stinky Jiang Ning is so childish."
Zhang Ruyun was numb.
"Hey, I'm going to have lunch with my girlfriend today, let her treat me!" Zhang Ruyun suddenly said.
His damn desire to win made him take out his cell phone and call his girlfriend on WeChat.
The call was answered quickly.
Zhang Ruyun's voice became gentle in an instant, and she asked caringly, "Ayue, are you up?"
A girl's voice came from the receiver: "Brother Yun, I'm up. How about you?"
Zhang Ruyun immediately turned on the speakerphone and called Jiang Ning and the others as if to show off.
As they chatted, A Yue said that her blind date gave her a gold bracelet.
Zhang Ruyun's face suddenly changed.
When you are young, you have a pure love, but also a strong possessiveness, and you are easily irritated. Zhang Ruyun's tone instantly rose: "Ayue, I really don't understand, he gave you a gift, why did you accept it?"
Ah Yue: "I don't know. When he gave it to me, it was a handbag. I opened the bag and found out that it was a Chow Tai Fook bracelet."
Zhang Ruyun: "It's not a question of whether it's a bag or not. If you don't like it, why would you accept someone's gift?"
"Why are you such a person?"
"If it were me, I would directly refuse any gift."
He was extremely excited and kept using sharp words to criticize A Yue's mistakes.
Ah Yue couldn't stand what she said and started to resist: "Just because you don't answer it, does that mean I can't answer it? Why should I be like you? Why should I stand in your shoes? I think it's fine. There's give and take, and there's nothing wrong with that!"
Zhang Ruyun's phone was shaking, as if it was sick: "Do you know what it means to accept a gift? What?"
Xue Yuantong, who was watching the show, whispered to Jiang Ning, "You can't just accept gifts. Even corrupt leaders don't dare to take gifts and not do anything."
Jiang Ning gave her a thumbs up.
Xue Yuantong crossed her arms and said, "Hmph. She had understood this a long time ago. When Jiang Ning had just moved in, he offered to give her a ride on his bike on the way to school, but she ignored him because that would mean she would owe him a favor."
She is always cool and never troubles others.
Just now…
The young couple had a fierce quarrel, and Ah Yue added fuel to the fire: "My mother asked me to have dinner with him today."
Zhang Ruyun almost exploded: "A man and a woman, do you think it's appropriate for you to go out for dinner?"
Ah Yue: "I'm not you. I won't cross the line. Just go ahead. He and I are just friends."
After saying this, A Yue hung up the WeChat call.
When Zhang Ruyun called again, the number was no longer connected.
He looked at his phone and murmured, "Why? Why does a person change so quickly?"
I remember how we met and got to know each other in school. Ah Yue was very simple at that time. Although our life was simple, they could work hard together. As a distinguished member of the Student Union, Zhang Ruyun would always take her to do part-time jobs and imagine a beautiful future together.
But now, why did things change so drastically, just because my family introduced a blind date to me, and why did things become completely different from then on?
His rules, which were as heavy as a rock, were as light as a cloud to A Yue.
Sincerity changes rapidly.
Zhang Ruyun laughed bitterly and said self-deprecatingly: "Couples are not as good as friends, haha, what can I do?"
Jiang Ning ate buns and drank porridge, and said, "If you pretend not to know, all three of us will be fine."
Zhang Ruyun was distraught and heartbroken: "But how can I pretend I don't know?"
Xue Yuantong suggested: "Then you should also be friends with her and ask her if you can also go to dinner."
Zhang Ruyun's silence was deafening.
Xue Chuchu thought to herself: "What a good move to stop loss and buy shares in time."
……
nine in the morning.
Jiang Ning was still playing at the door. He sat on a small stool and played chess with Xue Yuantong.
Near the chessboard, Dongdong put on mature clothes and dressed like an adult. He stood on the ground, looking to the west, watching over peace.
Jiang Ning said: "Dongdong, you have been promoted and given a raise now. As the vice president of the strawberry greenhouse, you should work hard in the future!"
Xue Yuantong painted a rosy picture: "The future is promising."
Dongdong grinned and showed a kind smile.
Dongdong didn't get promoted for no reason. One of the reasons was that Xue Yuantong boasted in the group last night, and Tang Jing told Huang Yuzhu about it.
Huang Yuzhu was really desperate. He realized that his neglected younger brother had gone completely astray. If he was not corrected, he would be completely ruined in the future.
After consulting Xue Yuantong, he discovered that not only could he work and study in Heba, but he also had a highly respected teacher!
Not only can you exercise and cultivate your character, but you also have teachers to teach you, which is really killing two birds with one stone.
Huang Yuzhu did not hesitate for too long and made up his mind to send his brother to Heba for further studies.
And this morning was the day Huang Yuzhu brought his younger brother here.
The second reason was that Jiang Ning asked Dong Dong to work, and the children who were originally bullied by Dong Dong now had someone to rely on. At first, he was just a supervisor, but later he began to beat and scold Dong Dong, bully Dong Dong, and actually turned into a dragon.
Children’s education is really interesting... But Jiang Ning thought again, isn’t the adult world the same?
Time passes minute by minute.
With the rumbling sound of a motorcycle, it broke into the area of the river dam.
Jiang Ning had just finished playing chess. Facing his friend who often ate together in his previous life, he stood up and called out, "Yuzhu, here you are."
Huang Yuzhu got off the motorcycle and asked honestly, "Have you eaten?"
At the same time, a man who looked to be in his forties and more honest, smiled at Jiang Ning and humbly took out a cigarette and handed it to him.
Jiang Ning waved his hand and said hello, uncle.
Then, Huang Guan took a half-grown child in his arms and brought him to Jiang Ning: "This is my son, Xingxing, come and say hello."
The little boy raised his face, expressionless and silent.
"Look at this child." Huang Guan frowned.
Jiang Ning didn't mind: "The child is still young."
He beckoned Dongdong over and said, "Introduce him a job."
Dongdong is a veteran worker in the strawberry farm after all, so he said, "Working in our strawberry farm gives you three meals a day, and every meal has meat!"
He shook his strong arms and said, "I'm only 9 years old!"
After these words were spoken, Huang Guan and Huang Yuzhu, father and son, took a deep breath and looked at the calf-like thing. You freaking tell me, he is only nine years old?
"Not only can you eat rice, you can also eat strawberries. You know strawberries, greenhouse strawberries, they cost dozens of yuan per pound!" Dongdong introduced passionately.
Huang Guan was a rough man who did hard labor. He knew that strawberries were expensive in winter and his family was reluctant to buy them.
"For such a young child, not only is there food provided but also strawberries to eat. Xingxing will definitely like it. Besides, the place is remote and there is no internet cafe." Huang Guan thought more and more about it.
Jiang Ning coughed lightly.
Dongdong immediately said: "Not only can I work and eat well, but I can also receive the teachings of Teacher Qian!"
At this time, Mr. Qian, who looked like a decent man next door, walked out of the door. He stood under the rising sun in the east, radiant with light, and chanted a poem: "Last night the Big Dipper returned to the north, and today the year begins in the east. I am old enough to be an official, but without salary, I still worry about farming."
Xue Yuantong praised: "Good poem, good poem, good poem!"
It was clearly a sincere compliment, but Teacher Qian felt that she was being sarcastic. This girl had become sinister!
When Huang Guan saw Teacher Qian's cultured demeanor, he was immediately inspired. He could work and have a teacher to encourage him. Perfect!
Look at this nine-year-old boy in front of you. He is just like an adult, so mature and so nice!
Huang Guan immediately urged his son to do a good job.
In fact, Dongdong still gets paid for his hard work in the strawberry garden. His salary is 150 yuan. Jiang Ning works very hard as an intermediary, so he takes 149 yuan, and Dongdong gets 1 yuan a day.
For a newbie like Xingxing, Jiang Ning set the price at 80 yuan. He took 79 yuan, leaving 5 cents as a salary increase for Dongdong to be promoted to vice president of the greenhouse, so Xingxing only got zero yuan.
But this alone is not good, it will make things degenerate.
Xue Yuantong proposed a competition mechanism. She would randomly visit customers and judge who has the best work attitude based on their positive reviews. That person would then be promoted to general manager first.
However, it has not been implemented yet and Xingxing needs to become a formal employee.
Huang Guan and Huang Yuzhu handed Xingxing over to Dongdong with one click and left the dam excitedly.
……
Dongdong maintained his disguise as he examined the little boy Xingxing.
In the past, Dongdong had many subordinates, but they were all makeshift teams. However, Xingxing in front of him was a truly certified official employee.
"Hey, kid, you're cool?" Dongdong greeted.
Xingxing is very young, but he is able to deceive his family. He hangs out in Internet cafes every day. He has met many gangsters. At this time, he thinks Dongdong is very easy to talk to, and he is not afraid of such people at all.
"Well, Xiaodong, can you play CF?" Xingxing asked.
Dongdong was puzzled: "What is CF?"
Xingxing sneered inwardly, he didn't even understand CF, he was indeed a bumpkin from a poor village.
He swept the river dam and ordered, "Take me to the strawberry garden. I haven't eaten strawberries for a long time."
Dongdong smiled and said, "Your work attitude is very proactive, I like it!"
Dongdong did not forget to say hello to King Jiang Ning: "I'm leaving!"
Jiang Ning nodded: "Well, remember, you two are working voluntarily."
Xingxing started walking away, and Dongdong caught up with him and asked, "Why don't you say hello to him, or he will make things difficult for you!"
Xingxing said disdainfully: "Why should I greet him? Who does he think he is?"
Dongdong: "If you don't please him, the consequences will be serious!"
Although Xingxing is young, he surfs the Internet every day and has his own worldview. He brainwashes Dongdong in reverse: "Then I will definitely be happy when he dies."
"If Jiang Ning died..." Dongdong had the idea of treason in his mind, but he immediately suppressed the bold idea in his heart for fear of angering the king.
Dongdong shook his head: "Work hard, there will be many benefits in the future!"
Xingxing looked at this stupid guy and saw through him. He thought to himself that when he was working later, he would trick the stupid fat guy into working while he would eat strawberries beside him.
In the past in class, Xingxing often played Fatty around.
Teacher Qian looked at Xingxing walking away from afar and said, "This kid will never amount to anything in the future."
Zhang Ruyun's sadness healed a lot. He was surprised: "Teacher, how did you see that?"
Teacher Qian glanced at him and said, "Ruyun, let me teach you today!"
"To see if a boy has a bright future, first look at his parents. Have you seen his father? He rides a motorcycle, looks honest, and dares not speak straight. How can such a child have a bright future? What awaits him is a lifetime mortgage and a lifetime of working. If he can find a wife and live in peace, it is a blessing from his ancestors."
Zhang Ruyun: "Then how can one be considered promising?"
Teacher Qian glanced to the west and said, "The two kids who often came to the farmhouse recently must be from official families. They are sure to have great prospects."
Zhang Ruyun wondered: "After all, isn't it just about visiting parents?"
Teacher Qian took it for granted and repeated, "Isn't it just to see the parents?"
Thirty years ago, he was also full of passion, but in the end he had to retire as an ordinary teacher?
……
Ten o'clock in the morning.
Aunt Gu rode her electric scooter home. Her work at Changqing Liquid has been very easy recently. After finishing her morning work, Aunt Gu finished her work and was able to spend more time with her daughter.
Xue Yuantong went over immediately.
Aunt Gu looked at her little daughter and felt like when she lived in the village. Every time she came home from the market, her daughter would run to greet her and ask her what delicious food she had bought that day.
As soon as Aunt Gu's electric bike came to a complete stop, Xue Yuantong peered into the basket. He was rummaging through it while looking, and he was extremely excited.
Aunt Gu actually likes her daughter very much. It would be bad if her daughter just said "oh" and was cold and lonely every time she came home.
Sometimes, people don’t just live alone. Sometimes being needed by others is also a meaning of existence.
However, seeing her daughter's useless and greedy appearance, Aunt Gu taught her a lesson: "No, take off your shoes and go in to pick it up."
