Chapter 148 Full Moon Banquet

Chen Qing was confused by the question.

People have self-knowledge.

He didn't.

Xiaohe had saved Xiaoyu before, and she promised to make a set of cotton-padded clothes and trousers for Xiaohe for the New Year, which would cost at least 20 yuan.

When Teacher Lin came to visit with a bunch of gifts, all the miscellaneous items added up to about thirty yuan.

Fifty dollars in total.

In terms of cause and effect, the person he should settle the score with is Grandma Lin.

Besides, Xiao He was rescued by He Yuxiang, and she didn’t say anything.

But Yang Xiujin still feels it is not enough?

Chen Qing smiled. "Because I'm working during the working hours, as a member of the machinery factory, I should devote all my attention to production. I sincerely hope that Director Yang will not contact me during working hours in the future. Thank you."

She took out her notebook, opened the pen cap with one hand, and wrote in the notebook.

[Must-buy list: sharp knife, matches, string.]
In the original novel, the original owner was with Yang Xiujing, and lived a peaceful life for the first half of her life.

Chen Qing didn't know what her future would be like, but she had to prepare in advance.

Although he was afraid in his heart, Chen Qing would not tolerate it, because to indulge certain people was like inviting them to slap him in the face.

Yang Xiujin came to her, already prepared for rejection, but still said, "My Xiaohe jumped into the river for your niece, risking her life. Now I just asked you to take care of her for two days, and you refused."

He sighed slightly.

Looking very disappointed.

Everyone in the office looked at each other.

Chen Qing lowered his head, his eyelashes casting a shadow, and he stood up again.

Yang Xiujin, who was standing at the door, suddenly took a step back.

Chen Qing said to Yang Xiujin, "Let's go find Secretary Yang."

"What do you want to see Secretary Yang for?"

"Ask him how much it would cost to repay the favor by saving someone. Your daughter saved my Xiaoyu, and my He Yuxiang saved your Xiaohe. I'm giving your daughter a set of cotton-padded clothes and trousers, and I'm not asking for anything from you. Teacher Lin's nearly thirty yuan in compensation isn't enough, and I'm also going to sacrifice my freedom. Let's see what he thinks, Director Yang, please."

Chen Qing smiled slightly.

There was no warmth in his eyes.

Some people are really good at taking advantage of others.

Yang Xiujin noticed the change in the looks around him, adjusted his glasses, and smiled gently, "Team Leader Chen, you misunderstood. I don't mean to ask for anything in return. I'm just going on a business trip, and I wanted to ask for a favor because my Xiao He is close to your two children."

"Then I refuse. Do you understand?" Chen Qing was afraid that he was deaf, so he repeated, "I refuse. Can you hear the meaning of these three words clearly?"

Yang Xiujin's well-maintained gentle image almost gave way: "Since Team Leader Chen has refused, I have nothing to say."

"Then please ask Director Yang to leave."

Chen Qing stared at Yang Xiujin in front of her. He looked exactly like the pervert she was afraid of when she was a child.

Before encountering this, Chen Qing would be terrified, would add many filters to the bad guys, and even belittle himself.

But I encountered...

Ha ha!

Why should I give in to him?
Flattery and tolerance will never earn you respect.

When facing any bad guy, the best way to protect yourself is to make him fear you.

Yang Xiujin stared at Chen Qing deeply, then turned and left.

Everyone in the office looked at Chen Qing and asked, "Team Leader, are you okay?"

"What could be the problem?" Chen Qing waved his hands. "Just do your thing."

She slumped over the table in frustration.

then……

Fell asleep.

Boom boom boom! ! !
Director Liu's enamel pot knocked on the corner of the table, the sound like a bell: "Chen Qing!"

Chen Qing opened his eyes dazedly and saw a familiar old face. He subconsciously covered his face with his notebook: "I won't do it again next time."

Director Liu saw that there was a faint dark blue under her eyes, and he didn't know where she went to be a thief at night, "Aren't you sleeping at night?" "He Yuxiang had something to do yesterday." Chen Qing pursed her lips, "I promise, I won't sleep after this."

Just take a rest.

Sleeping is a bit too much.

Seeing her sincere attitude, Director Liu was no longer angry and got back to business: "There will be a performance by the art troupe on National Day, you will host it."

Chen Qing asked hurriedly: "Is there a reward?"

"We haven't finalized it yet. It depends on the size of the art troupe. Anyway, there's still half a month left, so you should prepare well."

"Row."

The first time you host something, the second time you become familiar with it.

Chen Qing was very happy to be able to earn some extra money during working hours.

She read the newspaper for a while, and soon it was time for lunch break.

Chen Qing has to go to the full moon banquet.

I have to rush back to the slum for lunch tomorrow at noon.

The children are on holiday these days, but the machinery factory is not.

There are holidays during normal times, but not during festivals. They say it's to get rid of feudal ideas...

This is the current direction of the wind.

But in fact, the entire Chinese people attach great importance to major festivals.

Otherwise, the supply and marketing cooperatives’ goods would not be in short supply.

Chen Qing hurried back home and took his three children to Zhang Dongmei's slum.

The money-recording uncle read out: "Comrade Chen Qing, one dollar."

He Yuxiang added: "I gave him 20 eggs before."

Uncle Qian went to ask and added the number of eggs.

After giving the red envelope, Chen Qing saw that no one was there to greet her, so she found a more secluded spot and sat down casually.

The way the full moon banquet was held in the slum was very simple. There were eight tables inside the courtyard and five tables outside the courtyard, a total of thirteen tables, and it was lively and bustling.

Zhang Dongmei's parents-in-law were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

So many people came.

There is definitely money to be made!

The dishes arrived quickly, six in total.

Zhang Dongmei also came out with her child to greet everyone. When she saw the six dishes on the table, her face turned stiff.

Stir-fried sweet potato vines, stir-fried pumpkin slices, celery and dried tofu, stir-fried eggplant, winter melon and soybean soup, and minced cowpea and meat.

The quantity looks good.

These are also dishes that can be used to entertain guests, but the portion of each dish is very small!!
There is no meat at all in the minced meat.

Her father is the team leader, and he specially moved the pig-slaughtering time to today, and sent their family 30 kilograms of meat, five pumpkins, 30 kilograms of sweet potato vines, and 5 kilograms of dried tofu.

So, for the full moon banquet, they only served some vegetarian dishes like celery, soybeans, and eggplant, not counting the vegetables her parents specially sent her! !

Zhang's father and mother also saw it.

It didn't show on his face.

Naturally, it would be better for their daughter to marry into the city than to live in the countryside. Moreover, if her parents bring shame to her in-laws after she gets married, she will be easily bullied. No matter how much dissatisfaction they have, they will endure it.

Chen Qing also endured it.

She spent two dollars on this meal, but the four of them actually ate less than fifty cents.

Because the staple food is brown rice!
Brown rice is not the coarse grain that modern people pursue. It contains sand.

Chen Qing forbade Xiaoyu from eating, "When we get home later, your aunt will make you something to eat, but you can't eat it."

She is still young, what if she accidentally swallows it?

Xiaoyu nodded obediently.

His eyes were fixed on the food.

She has to work hard to grab food!
