Song Tan's Notes

Chapter 1232. I am very capable [two in one]

This breakfast took quite a while.

Chen Chi had already served his third bowl of stewed chicken with potatoes, which made Master Jiang happy: "Eat! Eat more! Don't leave any leftovers!"

Although it wouldn't be a waste to feed the leftovers to the dog, he just had this old habit and always felt that it would be better if people ate it.

Qiao Qiao was stunned: "You are such a big eater!"

  Chen Xi was a little embarrassed, because Chen Chi had never had such a free and easy meal at home. Would it seem that his appetite was a little too big now?

However, he couldn't keep up with the child's thinking. Qiao Qiao's eyes sparkled with admiration: "You actually eat more than anyone in our family! How amazing!"

Chen Chi ate the potatoes that had been soaked in the broth until they became soft, and at this moment he was shaking his head, looking extremely proud.

Chen Yuan frowned a little: "Is he not full at home? Don't let him eat so much at once, it will easily make him sick."

After hearing this, Chen Xi also reacted and said quickly: "Chen Chi, you can't eat anymore after this bowl."

"Oh." Chen Chi clenched the spoon, looked at the remaining food on the plate, and silently slowed down his movements.

Qiao Qiao opened her mouth wide: "So you can still eat..."

  Really great!

but--

He leaned over and muttered, "You're right to eat less now. As long as you work harder in the morning and digest the food, you'll definitely be very hungry by noon—"

"I'll cook braised pork for lunch! Have you ever eaten braised pork? The braised pork made by Chef Jiang is super delicious! He even puts tiger skin eggs in it to stew it together!"

"I can make it, too! I have to choose the best pork belly and cut it into chunks. The fat is tender, and the lean part is not dry at all."

"Eat the meat and rice together, it's super delicious! You can also mix the rice with the broth, the soup is thick..."

Chen Chi held the spoon in his mouth and was still chewing, but it seemed as if saliva was about to flow out at the next moment.

His eyes were also shining as he stared at Qiao Qiao.

Then he clenched his fists and nodded heavily: "I'm super capable!"

……

Although Chen Chi is a little stupid, his evaluation of himself is not exaggerated at all.

When Chen Yuan drove an electric tour bus to take them to the ranch, Zhang Wang's family, who had received the news, was already looking forward to it.

  I saw two tall and strong young men coming over, especially one of them who was about 1.9 meters tall, and he was grinning so hard that his teeth were showing:

"Coming?"

He said impatiently: "Come, let me show you how to do some work. Some jobs cannot be done just by having a good-looking physique."

He had worked on the ranch for a long time and always felt that the job did not require much strength, after all, he himself was lame.

But then, Chen Chi's enthusiasm for work made him feel that strength is really important.

The simplest method Zhang Wangjia uses to train new employees is to have them do everything that needs to be done every day.

"Every morning when we get up we have to clean up the pen and get rid of all the excrement. But today we also have to take out the straw they sleep on. It has become a little rotten over time, so we have to replace it with new hay."

This action requires no technical skills. You just need to use a shovel or fork to collect the hay and manure into the bucket cart on the side, and then slowly push it to the fermentation tank.

There was a mixing machine newly purchased by Song Tan, which completely replaced half of Wu Lei's labor here last winter.

  However, before his demonstration was over, Qiao Qiao looked at Chen Chi with anticipation on his face:

"Have you learned it? How capable are you?"

Chen Chi was really tall and strong, with dark muscular body and a silly smile. He just walked into the sheep pen.

The sheep, big and small, were already eager to go out and graze in the warm early spring weather, and he imitated Zhang Wang's actions, taking a shovel and filling up a bucket cart in just a few strokes.

Then push it easily until it is poured into the fermentation tank without any effort.

Zhang Wangjia opened his mouth, then looked at Chen Xi who couldn't get involved at all, and couldn't help but smile again.

When he reached the cowshed, he cried out "Ouch!"

There were two calves that were born not long ago and were not let out early in the morning. Now, for some reason, they started fighting again with their heads against each other.

It's obvious that the horns haven't fully developed yet.

"Oh!" Zhang Wangjia was anxious.

"These two little calves are quite stubborn. They started arguing yesterday. I guess they are lacking trace elements again..."

Chen Chi stood there motionless because he didn't know what to do.

Instead, Qiao Qiao rushed forward with shining eyes.

"I'll do it, I'll help stop the fight! I'm really good at it!"

Oh, stop the fight!

The experience he had in the village came to Chen Chi's mind. He followed in without saying a word, and then stood directly between the two cows. He simply and roughly put his palm on one of them and pushed it back hard.

The calf mooed and was pushed back two or three steps by him, feeling aggrieved.

Everyone:...

Even Chen Yuan stared at Chen Xi with eyes wide open:

"Does your brother have such strength?"

Chen Xi was also a little confused: "He is usually stronger, but..."

But these two calves in front of me are really strong!

  But why does it seem so easy for Chen Chi to push it?

But then, I saw Qiao Qiao also blocking the other end, and this time he pushed it to the side with the same force.

Oh.

Chen Xi had a numb face:

"Maybe kids like them have this much strength."

Zhang Wangjia also seemed to be thinking: "It's hard to say, otherwise why do people call him a big fool?"

Chen Yuan:......

Somehow, he always felt that this strength was extraordinary.

By the time the pigsty, chicken coop and duck shed were all cleaned up, Zhang Wangjia was already tired, but Chen Chi and Chen Xi worked together, one loading the cart and the other pushing it, and they seemed particularly relaxed.

The difference is that as the older brother, Chen Xi only needs to stand there and load manure into the bucket cart with a shovel.

Chen Chi is really motivated.

"Do we even need to try?" Zhang Wangjia looked at Chen Yuan. "With such strength, why not recruit them? They will be stronger than others when it comes to cutting grass."

Chen Yuan smiled bitterly: "Uncle, why are you telling me this? You should ask Qiao Qiao."

That's true.

  The new HR person, Song Qiaoqiao, was standing by the fermentation tank at this moment, announcing in a serious and cool manner:

"Chen Chi, you're accepted!"

Of course, being handsome doesn't last for more than three seconds. After he finished speaking, he habitually counted on his fingers: "Five social insurances and one housing fund, this is too complicated, let Brother Chen Yuan explain it to you."

"And there are four days off every month - do you understand what it means to have four days off? It means you can do nothing for four days. I have that too! I can also take you to the store to buy snacks! I can also take you to watch cartoons..."

"Do you like watching Ultraman or Peppa Pig? I've seen Ultraman's super-combination transformation recently!"

Chen Chi listened to all this in a daze. He didn't understand a word of it and had no idea what cartoons were. He should have seen them when he was a child, but he was too ignorant and had seen them very few times, so he had no memory of them.

But what Qiao Qiao said seemed so impressive and interesting that he became excited and nodded heavily!

"And more and more!"

Qiao Qiao began to count: "You can get 4000 yuan a month. Do you know how much 4000 yuan is? Anyway, it's enough to support the family. My sister gives me 2500 yuan a month. Now I can support Daxiong, Dabai, Dabao, Dawang, Datian and many others..."

"4000, super useful!"

At this point he reacted: "But you don't have to support the family, right? Wow, then you can buy a windmill, a bubble blower, chewing gum and instant noodles..."

"I want it."

Chen Chi suddenly spoke.

Chen Xi, who was still immersed in the joy that Chen Chi finally had a stable job, was also stunned.

Then Chen Chi grinned at him foolishly: "My brother used to support me! When I went to carry garbage, my mother also said that she would use the money to support my brother... But it shouldn't be as much as 4000..."

When he said this, his voice gradually dropped, because he really had no idea what 4000 was.

  but!

Qiao Qiao said that he could buy so many things and support his family, so -

"I want to support my brother!"

he shouted.

……

It was not until after 10 o'clock in the morning that Qiao Qiao brought the two brothers Chen Xi and Chen Chi back to sign the contract.

When the contract was displayed, he even danced with his hands and gestured to everyone, "...Chen Chi is really good at work."

Song Tan couldn't help but laugh: "It's rare to have a friend who is almost your age. He doesn't have a job, so you can make an appointment to play together!"

"You can also bring it back to watch TV, play with toys and play games."

She said it very seriously, but Qiao Qiao was more serious than her and sighed in a serious manner:

"I'm very busy."

"Teacher Xin assigned me homework, but I still have to go to class..."

Hearing the three words "Teacher Xin", Chen Xi subconsciously raised his head.

However, before he could open his mouth, Qiao Qiao added, "Where's Teacher Xin? Chen Chi still can't count. I want him to take Teacher Xin's online course."

It was rare for Song Tan to see Qiao Qiao so innocent and pure and happy, and he was delighted by his thoughtfulness, so he pointed upstairs:

"He's preparing lessons. You can go upstairs and call him, and by the way, give Chen Chi those grid notebooks and pencils that you don't use."

  Chen Xi stood up subconsciously and refused:

"No, no, I can buy it myself, how can I do this..."

"Don't be embarrassed."

Song Tan waved his hand and said, "As long as these two kids are not doing anything bad, we adults should not interfere too much."

  She looked at Chen Chi thoughtfully, then smiled again:

"Although we only met once in the morning, don't you think Qiao Qiao has made him more lively in just half a day?"

  Why didn’t you feel that?

Chen Xi even felt that Chen Chi had said more this morning than he had in the entire past year.

Even so happy and satisfied.

  Qiao Qiao stood on the stairs holding onto the railing and thought of another advantage of Chen Chi:

"Sister, he has such a big appetite! He eats a lot! Even bigger than me!"

As an adult, Chen Xi's face was a little hot again. However, Song Tan in front of him just smiled:

"Really? Then tell Chef Jiang to cook more for a few people, otherwise what if he doesn't have enough to eat?"

"Yes!" Qiao Qiao nodded heavily, and then asked, "Then I'll go to the mountain to eat with him at noon, okay?"

"Okay." Song Tan looked at Qiao Qiao. It was rare for him to have friends of the same age, and it seemed that he was no less happy today than Chen Chi.

She decided to be a good person: "Where's your old phone? You can give it to Chen Chi, so that you can make time to play and eat together after work..."

"Oh, right," Song Tan remembered something else: "I was in such a hurry that I forgot to add that you need to go to the city tomorrow to get a health certificate."

Chen Xi breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded: "Yes, it should be. I came in such a hurry that I didn't think about these."

  Song Tan also smiled slightly:

"Let them play as they please. If you, as his brother, don't mind, Qiao Qiao can bring him along when he teaches live."

  "You can't take it, you can't take it." Zhang Yanping heard this as soon as he came downstairs, and rushed downstairs with a ferocious look, scaring Chen Xi so much that he moved subconsciously!

His movements looked very professional, which made Zhang Yanping, the embroidered pillow, nervous. It took him a while to react and he looked at Chen Xi:

"I'm sorry, don't get me wrong, I don't think Chen Chi is that... After all, Qiao Qiao also came this far step by step."

"It's just that netizens are very critical nowadays. If they see him doing a lot of work or doing something strenuous in the video, they will easily make a lot of unnecessary speculations."

"Whether it's well-intentioned or not, it will most likely develop into a quarrel. Qiao Qiao has only signed the contract for less than half a year, so she should be cautious."

"Otherwise, the reputation of the live broadcast room will be a mess."

  Chen Xi still didn't quite understand what the live broadcast was about, and how many people were watching it. But he was actually relieved:

"That's fine. Chen Chi just left home, and I'm afraid my mom will see him once he becomes a little famous. She often watches all kinds of live broadcasts on Tik Tok..."

"That's okay."

  Zhang Yanping persuaded him again:

"His skin is a little dark now, and he has muscles on his body, but his overall complexion and demeanor are not very good. After working here for a while and recuperating, he will see great changes."

When he said this, he didn't notice that Chen Xi's eyes were quietly looking at his body and face, with a hint of suspicion on his face.

"…and we're not live streaming on TikTok, so it's okay."

Chen Chi listened to these incomprehensible words silently, behaved well and did not move.

Not until Xin Jun came downstairs did Chen Xi silently look at his fair and gentle appearance, then glanced at Zhang Yanping vigilantly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chen Chi, is it?"

  He only took a quick look around and quickly locked onto his target, then sat down in front of Chen Chi:

"Qiao Qiao said he has a new friend, but I don't know if you can use your phone or check the time. Let me ask - he is packing his things and will be down soon."

"It just so happens that I want to see if you can keep up with the online class..."

He smiled politely at Chen Xi, who was a little nervous, and then extended his hand to Chen Chi:

"First of all, we need to know numbers when communicating with others. How many numbers can you count now..."

Here I come! Good night! This plot was supposed to end in one or two chapters, but before I knew it, I had already written three chapters...

I have to go back to my hometown on the Dragon Boat Festival, so I will probably have to take a leave.
