The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1356 If you can't handle things well, look for the problem within yourself!

The next morning, the sun shone brightly.
Summer is almost here, as time quietly slips by.

Wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt, Zhang Cheng pushed his bicycle to Zheng Juan's door.

As if anticipating something, Zheng Juan kept looking up expectantly.

"Zhang Cheng, you're here?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with surprise, Zheng Juan couldn't help but get excited.
"You got up pretty early!"

Looking at Zheng Juan's happy face, Zhang Cheng smiled.
Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Zheng Juan blushed and lowered her head.
"Mom, I've started my new job!"

Upon hearing Zheng Juan's words, Aunt Zheng stepped forward and said, "Young man, your name is Zhang Cheng, right?!"

"Correct!"

Upon hearing Zheng's mother's words, Zhang Cheng nodded quickly.
"Thank you. If it weren't for you, my family..."

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Zheng's mother was completely at a loss for words to express her gratitude.

Upon hearing Zheng's mother's words, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "It's alright, Aunt Zheng. I have a job at home, and we don't have many relatives or friends who need my help!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Zheng's mother was deeply moved, because these days, finding a suitable job is not so easy, let alone one at a flour mill!

If someone brings out something so precious, and you actually treat it as something that should rightfully belong to you, then you're being incredibly inconsiderate!
"Juan'er, give the IOU to your Brother Zhang!"

Looking at Zheng Juan, Zheng's mother became serious.

"Okay, Mom!"

Upon hearing Aunt Zheng's words, Zheng Juan took out an IOU from her pocket, on which a line of words was written in crooked handwriting.

Zhang Cheng lent Zheng Juan 800 yuan.
And on it, there also appears to be Zheng Juan's name and handprint.
"this?"

Looking at the IOU with surprise, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"Xiao Zhang, I know you have a kind heart, but our family can't just accept your help for nothing. Take this, my Juan'er will definitely pay you back! Even if you want to go back to work someday, you can tell your aunt!"

Looking intently at Zhang Cheng, Aunt Zheng spoke with a serious expression.
Upon hearing Aunt Zheng's words, Zhang Cheng froze on the spot.
Having lived in a courtyard house before, Zhang Cheng knew all too well that human nature was a fickle thing.
But seeing Aunt Zheng's honesty now, Zhang Cheng didn't know what to say.

"Brother Zhang, you can have it!"

Zheng Juan smiled as she stuffed the IOU into Zhang Cheng's hand.
Hearing what the two said, Zhang Cheng took out the IOU and said, "Alright, I'll consider it a loan!"

As he stuffed the IOU into his pocket, Zhang Cheng knew that if he didn't take it, Aunt Zheng and Zheng Juan wouldn't feel at ease.

"Let's go to work! We'll help you with your onboarding while we're at it!"

Zhang Cheng smiled and said to Zheng Juan, "Aunt Zheng, we're leaving!"

"go Go!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng and Zheng Juan, Aunt Zheng had a big smile on her face.

At the flour mill, Zhang Cheng quickly brought Zheng Juan to the personnel department.

The moment the letter of introduction was opened, the section chief immediately smiled and said, "Hey, you must be Xiao Zhang, right? Old Li used to rave about you! Is this your girlfriend?"

"Yes, Section Chief, this is Zheng Juan, my girlfriend!"

With a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng subtly slipped a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes into his hand.
Looking at Zhang Cheng's expression, the section chief laughed and said, "Hahaha, you and your uncle are pulling this trick, aren't you! Don't worry, we're all family. Your girlfriend is with me, don't worry, your uncle will arrange things for you!"

As he spoke, the section chief quickly arranged for someone to process Zheng Juan's onboarding.

Just then, Zhang Cheng spoke up: "Uncle, Zheng Juan's family is from Taiping Hutong. She was found when she was a baby, and she has a blind younger brother. What about her household registration?"

Zhang Cheng stopped mid-sentence, glancing awkwardly at the section chief before him. Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words, the section chief paused for a moment in confusion, then exclaimed with sudden realization, "Leave this to me. I'll contact the subdistrict office right away to get it sorted out. It won't interfere with my onboarding!"

"Thank you so much, Uncle!"

Looking at the section chief with a broad smile, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but feel grateful.

"Hey, we're all family, why are you saying these things!"

After speaking to Zhang Cheng, the section chief immediately turned his head and said, "Sister Liu, go and coordinate with the subdistrict office!"

As Zheng Juan walked out of the personnel department, her head was down and her face was flushed.
Looking at Zheng Juan, Zhang Cheng asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"

"Um, um, Brother Zhang, I, I'm not your girlfriend yet!"

Hesitantly, Zheng Juan looked at Zhang Cheng, feeling a blush creep up her face.
"I asked my elders to help me find this job, so I can only use it for my boyfriend. But that's okay. You just focus on your job, and your family can take care of your residency registration later! If you don't like this way of putting it, we can stop dating after you've been working for two months and things are stable! How about that!"

Zhang Cheng looked at Zheng Juan with a warm smile, appearing exceptionally gentle.
"Ah? Can this still happen?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in surprise, Zheng Juan clearly hadn't figured out the intricacies of the situation.

"Isn't this to help you get the job? Don't worry, I won't ruin your reputation!"

Zhang Cheng addressed Zheng Juan and began to explain.
Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Zheng Juan raised her head and said, "I can handle it!"

Zhang Cheng was stunned when he saw Zheng Juan say this, because is this how love is ended so directly in this era?
Seeing that Zhang Cheng remained silent for a long time, Zheng Juan assumed he was criticizing her family, and immediately lowered her head.
"Comrade Zheng Juan, my name is Zhang Cheng. Starting today, let's begin dating. If things don't go well, you should look for your own problems! How about it?"

Zhang Cheng extended his hand, looking at Zheng Juan with a broad smile.

Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Zheng Juan was taken aback at first, then immediately smiled and extended her hand, saying, "Okay, Brother Zhang, if things don't go well, I'll look for my own fault!"

Liu Haizhu: I'm looking for your mother, not your own problems? You little brat, are you even speaking human language?

Zhang Cheng:
Taiping Hutong, Zheng Family
When Zheng Juan returned home from get off work carrying large bags and small packages, her mother was surprised.
"Juan'er, what are these?"

Curious, Zheng's mother stepped forward to help.
Looking at Zheng's mother, Zheng Juan said, "Mom, these are all things issued by the flour mill. There are also work clothes and some gloves among them."

Upon hearing Zheng Juan's words, Zheng's mother exclaimed in surprise, "The factory is giving out so much stuff!"

"Yes, Brother Zhang helped me carry them all back!"

Blushing, Zheng Juan put the things away and gave Guangming a piece of candy.

"Sis, is this candy?"

While groping for something, Guangming asked questions.
"Yes, this is candy, given to me by Brother Zhang!"

A smile appeared on Zheng Juan's face; she seemed exceptionally happy at that moment.
Upon hearing Zheng Juan's words, Zheng's mother asked, "Where is Zhang Cheng? Why didn't he come in?"

"He had something to do, so he left first. Mom, I have something to tell you!"

Holding Zheng's mother's hand, Zheng Juan pulled her aside.
Upon learning that Zheng Juan and Zhang Cheng were dating, Zheng's mother smiled and asked, "Really?"

"Yes, really, Mom, Brother Zhang is a very nice person!"

Blushing, Zheng Juan couldn't help but smile as she spoke.
"Okay, then you should treat him well. That kid isn't bad. I've seen him go to the orphanage more than once!"

Looking at Zheng Juan in front of her, Zheng's mother felt, for some reason, that the hope for life was getting better and better.

"Sis, am I going to have a brother-in-law?"

Guangming asked Zheng Juan, and then became curious.
Although he is blind, his hearing is still very sensitive.
Upon hearing Guangming's words, Zheng Juan was speechless and blushed.
