From Siheyuan to Hong Kong Island Tycoon

Chapter 490: Discussing the New Year (1)

When Qin Huairu returned home, she saw that Jia Zhang had already prepared the meal in the kitchen and was about to serve it on the table.

Seeing Qin Huairu's gloomy face, Jia Zhangshi didn't ask any more questions. She certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to get into trouble at this time.

During this period of time, Xiaodang's mood has recovered well, and she seems to have forgotten the shadow of Li Nan in her heart.

The meals were still steamed corn bread, cornmeal porridge and choking pickled vegetables. Although they were not tasty, they filled the stomach at least.

Just as they were about to start eating, they heard the happy shouts of several neighbors in the yard.

These neighbors are all employees of the steel rolling mill, so naturally they all got some pork today.

"Boss, the factory actually gave you pork. Our family hasn't had meat for a while since we were cheated last time."

"I will use the fat to make lard later, and we can save the lean ones for making dumplings during the New Year."

These neighbors were all very proud, as if they were afraid that others wouldn't know that they had been given pork.

Yan Bugui in the front yard looked at the pork in his neighbor's hand with envy, smacked his lips and said, "If only I had worked in the steel mill, then our family could have had a share of pork."

The third aunt suddenly thought of something and asked Yan Bugui beside her: "The steel rolling mill is distributing pork this year. Do you think the fast food factory where the eldest and second sons work has better benefits?"

Yan Bugui nodded in agreement: "Need I say more? The treatment at the fast food factory is incomparable to that at the steel rolling mill. Now the eldest brother, the second brother and Yu Li will get a lot of good things."

The third aunt lowered her eyes and said with some regret: "If only the eldest and second eldest were still with us, then we could also benefit from their presence."

At this time, Yan Jiecheng, Yu Li and Yan Jiefang were happily pushing their bicycles home.

Not only were pork and old hens hung on the handlebars of the bicycle, but there were also two packages of tied snacks hanging on the other side.

Yan Jiefang couldn't close his mouth with laughter: "Brother and sister-in-law, today the factory not only gave us an extra month's salary, but also gave us so many good things. I am so happy."

Yan Jiecheng patted his brother's head, then scolded with a smile: "Look at your lack of ability. If our family can live such a comfortable life now, it is all thanks to your sister-in-law."

"If you had listened to your father's advice, you might still be working in the factory, working hard to screw screws."

Yan Jiefang nodded and said to Li with a flattering face: "Sister-in-law, it is all thanks to your help back then that I, Yan Jiefang, am where I am today."

"To express my gratitude to my elder brother and his wife for taking care of me over the years, I'd like to invite you two out for some hot pot today, okay?"

Yu Li: "Just because of your attitude, your sister-in-law's love for you was not in vain. So you should treat us both today."

"You two brothers should work harder in the future and strive to become a leader or team leader in the factory."

"If Xu Damao can be the director, what's the difference between you two brothers? You can't always be workers in the factory."

"Although I, Yu Li, am not well educated, I also know the truth that people go to high places and water flows to low places."

After hearing what Yu Li said, the two brothers opened their mouths in shame. To be honest, if Yu Li hadn't said what she had just said, they would have really planned to continue living like this.

Yan Jiecheng quickly tried to smooth things over and assured: "Okay, wife, Jiefang and I remember everything you said."

"But what you said is really strange. When we lived in the same courtyard before, why didn't I realize that Xu Damao had such great abilities?"

Yu Li snorted in annoyance: "You are just like our dad all day long, always calculating. What can you understand?"

"Besides, Xu Damao's reputation in the hospital was ruined by these three bosses."

"Although I married into the courtyard later, I have also heard about the conflict between Yi Zhonghai and Xu Damao's father. Yi Zhonghai seems to be full of benevolence and morality, but in fact, he is more petty than anyone else and has a strong desire for revenge."

"Before, he was in control of all matters big and small in the hospital. Only Wang Tianfeng and Xu Damao did not take this hypocrite seriously."

"And with Xu Damao's versatile personality, he is also very suitable for interpersonal communication, which is why Wang Tianfeng took a fancy to him."

On the other side, Xu Damao was reporting to Wang Tianfeng with a serious face about the situation in the factory over the past six months.

These things were originally supposed to be done by Wang Jianguo, but this guy went out shopping with Li Qing as soon as he got off work.

Wang Tianfeng took a sip of tea, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Brother Damao, I was right about you. You did better than I expected."

Xu Damao responded enthusiastically: "Tianfeng, these are what I should do, and most of the credit here should be attributed to brother Jianguo. I just did what I could."

Wang Tianfeng: "Okay, Brother Damao, stop being so polite. Sister-in-law Jingru is chatting with Yu Shui, and she has good news to tell you."

After Wang Tianfeng finished speaking, he stood up and went to help his two daughters with their homework, leaving Xu Damao with a confused look on his face.

Xu Damao was just about to go find Qin Jingru, but he didn't expect Qin Jingru to be more anxious than him and came running to him.

Qin Jingru said shyly beside Xu Damao's ear: "Brother Damao, I have good news to tell you, I have been pregnant for more than a month."

Qin Jingru's voice was not loud, but when Xu Damao heard the news, huge waves surged in his heart.

During this period, Xu Damao and Qin Jingru had been drinking the spiritual spring water given by Wang Tianfeng, so their previous physical problems were naturally all repaired.

Xu Damao scratched his ears and cheeks excitedly, and he wanted to pick up Qin Jingru and spin around in circles. Fortunately, Qin Jingru reminded him that this was Wang Tianfeng's home, so Xu Damao did not do so.

Qin Jingru: "Da Mao, I don't want to say anything more. Let's just repay Tianfeng in the future."

Xu Damao didn't say anything, but just nodded with a firm look.
