Chapter 95 Plan
"Sister Ning, what did you just say?"

Yu Gu looked at her in disbelief, feeling as if he had just hallucinated.

"You heard me right, I said I want to give you a job offer."

With jobs, income, and household registration, the four siblings were able to live a better life.

Considering the boy's sensitivity and self-esteem, Su Ning suppressed his smile and said seriously, "Of course you should know that jobs are hard to come by these days, and this quota can't be given to you for nothing."

"I know!"

Whether it's a temporary worker or a permanent employee, there's always a specific position available, and many worker families have parents who retire and then transfer the job to their children.

If you're lucky enough to find a job for resale, the price offered is beyond the reach of most people. For someone like them who has nothing, it's not even worth a second thought.

Yu Gu took a deep breath and tried to remain calm, but his body still trembled slightly uncontrollably.

"Sister Ning, I'll buy it no matter the price. I'll give you all my salary after I start working until I pay it off. Is that okay?"

"Okay, but not all of it. You need to keep some to support your younger siblings. Don't rush to pay us back."

"Thank you, Sister Ning..."

Words are too pale; even this lighthearted thank you is insufficient to express the myriad gratitude in his heart.

Yu Gu knew that what she gave them was not just a job, but their hope for survival.

Money can't repay this kindness, but as she said, there's no rush.

He is still very young, and he has many decades ahead of him, or even the rest of his life to slowly repay his debt.

……

Since we've chosen to help, we should help them to the end.

After Xiao Nangua fully recovered and was discharged from the hospital, Su Ning took advantage of his free time to take Yu Gu to the department store to complete the onboarding process.

She introduced him to Xiyou, who also worked there, and afterwards helped the siblings rent a small courtyard near her home on Nanmen First Street.

With everything settled, the Mid-Autumn Festival quietly arrived.

Purchasing Department, Gushi Textile Factory.

"Suning!"

I was sitting at my desk, writing a procurement report for this task, when I heard a sudden shout that nearly broke the pen refill in my hand.

“Fu Jiaming, I think you better have something to say.”

If she continues with more nonsensical ramblings, she might really get itchy to do something.

"Haha, everyone else has gone to collect their Mid-Autumn Festival benefits, but you're the only one in our department who hasn't gone yet. I'm just here to remind you!"

Realizing belatedly that he had startled her, Fu Jiaming chuckled and subtly stepped back to increase the distance between himself and her desk.

Speaking of which, she was the one who arranged the purchase for this Mid-Autumn Festival bonus. She clearly knew what good things were, but she wasn't even proactive.

Look at those guys in the office, they've been sitting still since the morning, their butts are practically covered in thorns, they're all eagerly waiting for this moment, aren't they?

After smacking his lips a couple of times, Fu Jiaming sat down on the desk behind him. "That Su Ning... how about we make a deal?"

"Tell me what it is first."

"I'll give you all the Mid-Autumn Festival benefits this year, and I can even help you deliver them home. In exchange, how about you make me some of those pastries and cookies from last time as a Mid-Autumn Festival gift?"

Su Ning stopped writing and finally looked up at him.

The cast on that leg has been removed, and it's almost healed except for the fact that it can't exert too much force. I no longer need to hop around on one leg.

Last time, I used the excuse of making pastries and cookies that I put a secret medicine from the Su family's ancestors in them, so that their injuries could heal faster.

The results were quite good after eating the portions in the correct amounts.

Although the two were surprised that they recovered faster than normal, they only thought it was because the secret medicine she gave them was effective and because their bodies were young and had strong self-healing abilities.

But this is fine for now. Too much of a good thing is bad. She doesn't plan to feed them anything mixed with spring water anymore.

"Really? That's a real shame."

"Huh? What's a pity?"

"Of course, it's a pity about the Mid-Autumn Festival gift I prepared in advance."

Upon hearing this, Fu Jiaming immediately jumped off the table, looking at her with a face full of surprise, "Are you serious? You even prepared a Mid-Autumn Festival gift for me?!"

"Here, this is for you, I'm giving it to you ahead of time."

From the moment she reached into her bag, he stared intently until the wooden box was handed to him, at which point Fu Jiaming's eyes lit up.

I had long since forgotten all my previous thoughts and plans.

So what if my legs heal slowly? A little extra time to recover can't compare to the thoughtful gift my friend prepared! "Shall I open it and take a look?"

"See? And give me some feedback while you're at it."

"What is this? And you want feedback? Did you make it yourself?!"

I couldn't wait to open the wooden box, and inside was a clivia carved from topaz.

Having seen many fine things, he could tell at a glance that compared to this rare piece of yellow jade, the craftsmanship of the carver was definitely not that of a master; the immature technique was more like that of a novice just beginning to learn.

If it were anyone else, he would definitely curse them for wasting such good material.

But knowing that it was carved by Su Ning himself and specially prepared for him, Fu Jiaming cherished the pendant even more.

Everything about it is just right, even the crooked stroke on the clivia is perfectly placed.

"I love this gift so much! Thank you, Suning!"

"As long as you like it and don't mind it."

"How could that be? Once you've mastered your skills and become a renowned artist, this clivia will be a treasure!"

Smiling and shaking her head, Su Ning took out another wooden box of the same design from her bag. "This is for Yan Bei. He hasn't left the lab yet?"

After the three returned to the ancient city, Yan Bei, feeling that she had recovered quite well, threw herself into the work that was not yet finished. Almost a month passed before she saw this busy man again.

Fu Jiaming took Yan Bei's share, secretly opened it and peeked inside: Guanyin bamboo? Hey, it's not even half as good-looking as his, it can't compare at all!
Satisfied, he closed the lids and carefully put away the two wooden boxes. "That's just how he is. He would never easily step out of the laboratory until he had completely finished his research."

Unless he's shameless and persistent, and in order to get rid of me, he'll take pity on me and go out for a treat.

However, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival...

Fu Jiaming stroked his chin and leaned closer to her mysteriously, "Su Ning hasn't asked you yet, what are your plans for the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"Um…"

If nothing unexpected happens, that guy Xiyou should be showing up at the door tonight.

After finishing the last stroke of the report, Su Ning stood up and said, "There's a high chance I'll be going to Luohu with Xiyou."

"What are you doing there?"

“I visited her once when I came back from Shanghai last time, and her maternal grandmother and uncle invited me to visit again during the Mid-Autumn Festival.”

"That's it."

His eyes darted around, but Fu Jiaming didn't give up and continued to probe, "You see, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a rare and wonderful day for family reunions. Wouldn't you feel uncomfortable if you went?"

"Look, none of us can go home. How about the three of us get together and celebrate the holiday?"

"Ok?"

After tidying up her desk, Su Ning glanced at her watch, turned, and left the office. "How can you be so confident that you can bring Yan Bei out tomorrow?"

"Of course I can! You're just not good enough, are you?"

You can always win someone over with a mix of coaxing and deception...

Fu Jiaming suddenly tapped his head, thinking that his good brother's little tricks might not even be necessary; just mentioning his name would be enough to lure him out!
He followed happily, half-jokingly promising, "Don't worry, as long as you agree, Yanbei will be running away before you can catch up!"

"Then I'll think about it."

He left the office and went straight to the union office.

"Officer Su!" "Officer Su!"

"Officer Su, you're really something! This time the benefits are just too good to be true!"

Su Ning nodded to the people who greeted him, and followed up with a humble smile in response to all the praise.

She glanced at Fu Jiaming, who was half a step behind her, and upon receiving his signal, he immediately and discreetly stepped in front of her, quickly leading her away from the crowd.

It wasn't until the two of them had received their Mid-Autumn Festival benefits and arrived at the factory gate that Fu Jiaming moved aside to reveal them.

"The comrades are so enthusiastic."

"They're still quite reserved. If it were a frontline worker blocking your way, you might be stuck in mid-air for several minutes! Hahahaha!"

"Alright, your stern-faced brother is here. I'm leaving now. Think about what I told you about tomorrow!"

"Okay, if that's alright, I'll come find you tomorrow morning. If you haven't seen me by noon..."

"I understand, okay, it's settled then!"

Sorry I'm late today~ Um, the increasingly bad data has really affected my concentration, maybe it's because it's the end of the month and there's only one day left... Well, thank you all for your support. As for the data, I'll try to stop looking at it and not think about it, so it won't affect me.
