Siheyuan: Craftsmen of a Great Country

Returning to the kitchen, Jiang Chen said: "It's time to eat, it's time to eat, I'm starved to death."

Wen Wan said: "You went to the Ministry of Industry for a meeting, but Minister Zhou didn't take care of your food?"

Jiang Chen chuckled and put his hand on Zhang Cui's shoulder: "It doesn't matter, but eating with our mother is more important than eating with my mother."

"Really, Mom?"

Zhang Cui slapped Jiang Chen's hand off: "I found out that you came to Sijiu City. Not only has your mouth become naughty, but you have also become less mature."

Zhang Cui's temperament didn't care about these things, but Jiang Chen used to be a complete boredom. He only read books and talked little during work.

Not to mention doing such an intimate act.

So Zhang Cui felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

Even though Zhang Cui was not so polite to Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen was often beaten when he was a child.

But as long as Jiang Chen made a decision, she would fully support it.

Jiang Chen hadn't gone to work at that time and wanted to buy a book, so she got up early and stayed up late at night, selling some side dishes to save money and buy it for Jiang Chen.

Including this visit to Sijiucheng, she was reluctant to part with it.

But he didn't show it at all. Instead, he silently packed Jiang Chen's luggage.

Then he sent Jiang Chen away with a smile.

After Jiang Chen's back turned away, she burst into tears looking at Kong Lao Nao's house.

Jiang Chen said: "People must make progress. I realized it when I came to Sijiu City."

"I used to be just like an ordinary technician all my life, and I couldn't achieve anything big, so I've been working hard to change."

Zhang Cui nodded: "My son has grown up and knows how to work hard, which is good."

Jiang Chen nodded: "I've always worked hard, okay? I've read a lot of books over the years."

"The accumulation day after day, year after year, led to the current explosion."

Zhang Cui turned around and went out, and quickly came back with a book: "When I was cleaning up your room, I found that you had a book on top of the sheets that you had forgotten to take. I brought it to you."

Jiang Chen reached out to take it, glanced at it, his expression suddenly changed, and he quickly put the book into his pocket.

Because the name of the book is called "Jin Ping Mei".

It was the only manuscript novel that the melancholy original person bought.

Since it was a banned book, I spent a lot of money to buy it.

After reading it, he pressed it under the bed and forgot about it when Jiang Chen left.

During the meal, Zhang Cui kept picking up vegetables for Liu Yue: "You, Section Chief Wen, are really good at cooking. The cooking is always delicious. Girl, please eat more."

Liu Yue, who had regained her composure, also took the initiative to pick up some food for Zhang Cui: "Auntie, you can eat too."

Seeing how sensible Liu Yue was, Zhang Cui smiled from ear to ear.

Jiang Chen said: "Thank you for your hard work, Chief Wen. I see that the family has changed a lot. You came here to buy a lot of things."

Wen Wan smiled and said: "Of course I will try my best to do the things that Director Yang personally told me."

"Actually, it's nothing, just some daily necessities, bedding and the like."

After dinner, Wen Wan said goodbye and left.

Leave space for them to chat as a family.

Zhang Cui pulled Liu Yue to sit down: "Girl, my auntie's bad expression just now was not directed at you, but at that little bastard Jiang Chen."

"For such a big child, I can't even write a letter clearly. I almost made my aunt mad to death."

Thinking of the family ring, Zhang Cui became more and more angry and wanted to get up and beat Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen wisely went to light the charcoal to burn the kang.

Liu Yue was about to get up and go to help, but Zhang Cui held her back: "Let him do it while we and I chat for a while."

"Xiaoyue, where are you from? Are your parents okay?"

When he opens his mouth, he's like a bastard, specializing in poking people's sore spots.

But Liu Yue had already walked out: "My parents have been gone for many years, and I grew up in an orphanage."

"As for where he is from, if I just do a hard calculation, he should be from Magic City, but when his parents were around, he mostly lived in the capital."

Zhang Cui was startled, then gently took Liu Yue's hand and put it on his knee: "Let him let go of the past. In the future, with auntie here, no one can bully you."

"Is Xiaochen nice to you?"

Liu Yue nodded: "He was very good to me. In the beginning, we were in the orphanage without enough food and clothing. It was the leader who took us out of there, and we have the good life we ​​have today."

Zhang Cui said: "You, the leader, are a good person. Since people have helped you, you have to repay them well. During the holidays, let Jiang Chen buy something to see."

Liu Yue smiled and said, "Is it considered a good repayment to pledge my body to you?"

Zhang Cui was confused again.

You pledge yourself to your leader, what should we do with our son?

Or is it okay that your girl wants to have two boats?

Liu Yue saw this and said with a smile: "Your son is my leader!"

"Ah?" Zhang Cui opened his mouth wide: "Is this bastard your leader?"

Liu Yue nodded: "Well, the leader not only brought me out of the orphanage. I also learned all my skills from the leader."

Zhang Cui said: "You are all related to each other and live under the same roof. Why do you still have the same leader?"

Liu Yue smiled and said: "Auntie, he is my leader whether in the factory or at home. He has ideas, and I listen to him on everything."

"Originally, I wanted to give my salary to the leader for safekeeping, but he didn't want it."

Zhang Cui became increasingly satisfied.

She was afraid that Jiang Chen would find a strong wife who would be easily bullied with his dull temper.

He even gave up his mother at the instigation of his wife.

Now it seems that I have thought too much.

Jiang Chen is not bored at all, and Liu Yue is also very sensible and respects Jiang Chen.

Liu Yue suddenly remembered something: "Auntie, you just came to Sijiu City and you are not used to the climate here."

"It's cold here. I have a rest for the past two days. I bought you two clothes. You can see if they fit you."

Of course, the tickets he used to buy clothes were bought by Jiang Chen from the pigeon market.

With the few tickets she gives out every month, she can't buy much.

After saying that, he stood up and took out two pieces of clothes from the cabinet.

A pink jacket and a blue jacket: "It's too cold in winter, so the clothes are thicker and not very beautiful."

"When spring starts and the weather gets warmer, we will take you to buy beautiful clothes."

Zhang Cui said: "Child, what kind of clothes are you buying? Auntie has brought a lot of clothes, how can I still let you spend money?"

Liu Yue said: "Auntie, whatever is mine and yours is yours."

"My boss has always told me that you spend the money you earn. If you see something you want, aunty, just tell me directly and we will buy it."

These days, apart from food and clothing, there really aren’t many places to spend money on in a normal life.

For a dual-income family like Jiang Chen and Liuyue, and the salary is not low, it is really too much to spend.

There is no way to spend it all.

If he couldn't buy or sell a house for the time being, Jiang Chen would have to save money to build a courtyard house.

Otherwise, if you keep the money, it will only depreciate.

Zhang Cui waved his hand: "I have been saving the money Jiang Chen gave me, and it's more than a hundred."

"If you really need something, I can buy it myself. You save your own money. Getting married and raising a child will cost a lot of money."

Liu Yue nodded obediently: "Okay!"
