The express delivery bosses went back to work overtime with the unpredictable chef filter, and here, Master Jiang finally got his wife!
Really! It’s not easy!
He hurriedly spent 200 yuan to get a car and went to the station to pick up his wife. She was holding the suitcase and still talking to him: "You said you, I said we will come together when the children are on winter vacation. It's just after New Year's Day! How nice it is! You have to urge me every day Urgent every day!”
“It’s not appropriate!” Master Jiang, Jiang Xiaokang, went to bed early and got up early in the past few months. He ate and drank with Lao Song’s family every day. It became more and more moist like an old noodle steamed bun, strong and solid.
The whole person is also in high spirits, which is completely different from the qi deficiency state when he was just recovering from a serious illness when he came here!
Now, Lao Mian Mantou expressed a false sense of sadness: "I have been given a house here. It's 50 square meters. I can't clean it up by myself. You have to keep an eye on it..."
Is it rare?
His daughter-in-law Du Mei is really not that rare!
To be fair, anyone with a house of more than 100 square meters in a provincial capital city would not care about a mediocre dormitory in the countryside.
Just thinking about it again, Jiang Xiaokang is usually sentimental. After the operation, he couldn't bear the job in the hotel. Now he is reduced to the countryside... This is like being unemployed in middle age.
Regardless of whether the family is short of such money, the psychological gap is unbearable!
She then changed her words after saying something critical: "Didn't I tell you how to do it in the video two days ago? I told you that the small bedroom must be tidied up, otherwise my daughter will not be used to living there during the holidays!"
“It’s okay, it’s okay!” Master Jiang said quickly. In fact, I feel a little guilty - it is 50 square meters with two bedrooms and one living room, but one of the rooms is very small and is used as a storage space. It is less than 10 square meters, which is enough for a single bed and a small desk. something.
But my daughter is only here to stay with me for a few days. I heard that she participated in some club projects during the winter vacation... It should work!
Let’s just make do with it anyway!
The couple have been together for half their lives, how could Du Mei not know what he could be like? He remained calm at the moment and just asked:
“You boasted about how nice this place is before, and it was arranged by our master because of favors... I think it’s pretty good, but you don’t even want to go home, and you keep urging me to come here.”
My complexion is also much better, very rosy! When I was discharged from the hospital, I couldn't stand the air-conditioned wind. Now, in the middle of winter, I'm wearing a thin down jacket with my arms open...
If nothing else, your body must be really strong!
Speaking of this, Jiang Xiaokang was sincerely grateful to Master Qian. His wife became proud when she asked:
“That’s right, it’s really hard for my master to arrange for me to come here!”
Master Qian would be embarrassed if he knew this - it's really not a big deal. It's not easy to find a chef who works in the countryside for 4,500 and has no family ties!
But no one on either side mentioned it, and no one believed it if it was mentioned. Jiang Xiaokang had silently written down the master's message, and now he was mysterious to his wife:
“Just wait! You will know when the master invites you to a meal at noon - let’s talk about it first, this is not what we usually eat!”
"But the old Song family also said that after winter, it will be fine next year! Next year our meals will also be produced in the village!"
“And when I heard that you were coming, Song Tan specially set aside some of the rice and vegetables at home. We can’t eat every meal together, but I can open a small stove for you to eat!”
oops! oops! This matter had been mentioned a long time ago, but who knew that his wife would only come today. Master Jiang felt regretful just thinking about it.
It was said so well that Du Mei also became interested—Jiang Xiaokang is a chef, what good ingredients have you never seen? Now that she was talking so happily, it was hard for her not to be moved.
"Okay!" She stuffed the trolley case into the trunk and got into the car: "Then I'll give it a try when I get back!"
In fact, thinking about it, the children are now older. In the early years, when the chef could make money, the couple also prepared a house and a car. I am not a very materialistic person...
Forget it, it’s quite nice to be in the countryside. At least you can eat food cooked by a chef.
He cooks when others are eating, and eats when the restaurant is over.
The children are now twenty, and the days of the chef cooking at home are numbered!I really wish I could eat at the hotel at work, otherwise how can I get such a high salary? In addition to being capable and talented, it’s also about hard work.
Just as she was thinking about it, Du Mei stretched out her hand: "How much salary do you have left?"
Master Jiang: ...middle-aged men are still a little happy?
The driver in front was driving meticulously, as if he didn't hear anything. Master Jiang thought to himself that this woman wouldn’t even give her face!
But the person was subconsciously frightened: "You, didn't you say that you can keep the salary here for your own use?"
Du Mei sighed: "You forgot, once I quit caring for patients, I won't be able to find a job for a while... Now I just want to see if you can save money..."
Sighed again: "Now that I am a full-time housewife, I feel that my life has no value, and I am not respected when I go out!"
She works as an after-sales supervisor in a supermarket. Her monthly salary is not much, but it is better than stability. But my daughter has to take the college entrance examination and her husband has to be hospitalized. It’s not a big problem but we need someone!
Finally I thought about it and resigned, which is really a pity.
Nonsense! Master Jiang was anxious: Why is this not respected and worthless? Don't you have two houses at home, a car, and hundreds of thousands in savings including previous salary cards?
He would like to be such a full-time gentleman!
But everyone said so, and it was true that he had lost his job for the family... Master Jiang felt guilty and short of breath, so he handed over his mobile phone:
“I came here on the 11th, and now I have only received two months’ salary. It cost 1,800 to decorate the house, dozens of dollars to replenish the membership for listening to books, and then the phone bill... nothing else.”
gone? !
Du Mei looked at the balance and expenses—no expenses at all!
She was surprised: "Don't you even spend money?"
When I was a chef, I often had to take my apprentices to eat, sing, and bring something to eat... They were all young people who came to work. They were all childish, or had two minds and were very shallow.
Master Jiang and Master Qian are old-school thinkers. Seeing that these children are all serious apprentices, they have to worry a lot.
In addition, there are also favor gifts. I usually buy some random things, such as expensive kitchen utensils...
Why is there nothing? !
Master Jiang thought for a while and couldn't think of anything else to spend - the favors and gifts were all from Du Mei, after all, he was so far away.
So he said naturally: "Food and accommodation are provided here, so what else do you need to spend?"
Du Mei opened her mouth and suddenly felt happy:
“That’s good. You work here and earn all our family’s monthly expenses!”
If it weren’t for buying some furniture and daily necessities, I would probably not have 4,000 left over from 4,500 per month.
The daughter’s monthly living expenses are 1,500 yuan, the family’s living expenses are 1,000 yuan, and some water, electricity, gas, etc., and the rest can be used for personal gifts and so on...
It’s not a matter of more money or less, but that life has suddenly become simpler.
It’s great for middle-aged men to be re-employed!
Update 2. This is a manuscript written in the hotel. Thank you for your thoughtfulness10. When making the plan, I also left time for everyone to save the manuscript (it’s a tacit understanding of the pigeons)
