Transmigrated into the fat wife of the future prime minister

Chapter 235 Taking Advantage

Xu Qingmeng looked at the person in front of her helplessly and muttered in dissatisfaction, "I pinched them and made them delicious food, but what's wrong with you? You just start hitting them like that?"

Gu Yunyi thought for a moment, his gaze very serious, moving from her face to her fair neck, and then down.

Xu Qingmeng had just breastfed her child, so her nightgown wasn't very warm to begin with, and it was even looser now.

Xu Qingmeng's skin was already very fair, and after giving birth, Gu Yunyi noticed that his wife's skin had become even better.

At that moment, her dazzlingly white skin, under the dim light, made it even more captivating.

At this moment, he had no mind to think about anything else. He lightly tapped his fingertips and slowly moved them downwards. The coolness of his fingers brought a slight tingling sensation, which made Xu Qingmeng involuntarily flinch.

Gu Yunyi stared at her, chuckled softly, and slowly covered her with his body: "My wife, shall I warm your bed for you? I promise you won't get cold."

"Pah, you're the one who got the better deal, we haven't even finished talking about the important stuff yet... Hmm... Be gentle... Ouch..."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow..."

······
Meanwhile, Xiao Li was scolded by the manager, who, still not giving up, wanted him to go and talk to the Gu family.

Without even thinking, Xiao Li refused outright, which infuriated the manager, who then launched into another tirade of abuse.

If it weren't for Little Li's good reputation in the business, many people would have come specifically for him, and the manager would have almost fired him.

When he got home, Xiao Li told his wife about it. To be honest, she didn't know what to do either.

One reason is that he has many children, and all the family's income comes from Xiao Lizi alone. Although he doesn't earn much, it's enough to cover the family's expenses.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Why don't you go and ask the Gu family how much monthly salary they offer tomorrow? If the two families are about the same, I think the Gu family is quite good. Madam Gu and Madam Gu are not stingy. Whenever our children go to play, they eat plenty of snacks and such. If they can work for the Gu family, they will surely receive gifts for festivals and holidays."

"Of course, if the monthly allowance is too much less, then forget it, after all, this whole family is waiting for you to support them."

Back in the day, Leonardo DiCaprio was ambitious and wanted to make a name for himself, but the pressures of life wore down his edges.

Based on his understanding of the Gu family, he felt that the Gu family would definitely be extraordinary in the future. There were thousands of students in the prefectural city, but how many of them could be recognized by the prefect?

"Alright, stop thinking about it. Let's wait until we go to the Gu family to ask before considering it. You should rest for a couple of days first! What if you develop a chronic illness later?"

Little Li felt that while his health was important, he had a large family to support, and the opportunity was more important right now.

After all, it was just a minor cold, and he wanted his child to be able to go to school.

The next morning, while the sky was still overcast, Xiao Li was already waiting at the Gu family's door.

The doorman had just opened the door when he saw him wearing a thick cotton-padded coat, yet he was still shivering from the cold, and his complexion was not good. He was startled and quickly ushered him inside.

"Why are you here so early? Young Master hasn't gotten up yet; he'll probably be up for a while." The gatekeeper knew about yesterday's events, but he didn't know what Xiao Li and Xu Qingmeng had talked about afterwards.

"I'll go to the backyard and ask if the young master has gotten up yet," the gatekeeper said.

Little Li quickly waved his hand; "No need, no need, I'll be fine in a bit, it shouldn't take long."

Gu Yunyi gets up at roughly the same time every day, and it's already this late, so he nodded and said, "Okay, then you can stay in my room for now. The charcoal fire inside is still burning, so you can go inside and warm up."

The gatekeeper's room is right next to the main gate, just two steps away. If someone comes out, you can see them.

Xiao Li was already suffering from a cold, and he was indeed too cold to bear it, so he didn't force himself to stay warm and followed him into the house.

Because there was a charcoal fire burning inside, Little Li felt much warmer as soon as he entered the room.

The winters in this prefectural city are much colder than in Quan County. Although Madam He is rather stingy, she is not the type to mistreat her servants.

Each servant's room was provided with charcoal. Although it wasn't much, it was enough to last through the winter if they only used it at night.

The gatekeeper lived alone, so he had his own room. Gu Tong had his own room, the two guards had their own rooms, the maids had their own rooms, and the four old women shared a large room.

Of course, the charcoal they used couldn't compare to the smokeless charcoal used in the backyard, but it was definitely not the worst kind either.

The doorman was introduced by Xiao Li, and they were quite familiar with each other. The two chatted for a while, and then Gu Yunyi got up. As soon as Xiao Li saw him, he quickly went out.

Since there was still some time before leaving the academy, Gu Yunyi went to the main hall with him for a chat.

Xu Qingmeng already discussed Xiao Li's situation with Gu Yunyi yesterday, and even hinted at her idea of ​​making Xiao Li a manager. The specific details weren't discussed further, though... well, that's how it went...
However, Gu Yunyi had helped with the hot pot restaurant matters, so he knew a bit about the monthly allowance for the prefectural city steward.

Although his understanding was not comprehensive, Xiao Li had mentioned to him how much money he could earn in a month during a casual chat.

Gu Yunyi didn't say much, just briefly mentioned the monthly allowance, which was not much different from what Xiao Lizi received every month at Yahang.

Little Li was actually quite tempted, but he still had some reservations. It wasn't that he was worried about the stability of the Gu family job, but rather that he had never done it before and didn't know if he could handle it.

Gu Yunyi didn't try to persuade him much; he simply sat there, holding a cup of hot tea, and slowly drank it.

The lady wanted to lend a hand, but it was also because Xiao Li had come to tell them to be careful and avoid being taken advantage of in the matter of buying people.

Of course, this shows that Leonardo DiCaprio is a good person, but since we don't know him very well, it remains to be seen whether he is suitable to be in charge.

If time is wasted and he grows up, and it turns out that Little Li is not suitable to be a manager, Gu Yunyi would actually prefer to buy a more experienced manager.

However, after spending time with Xu Qingmeng, he realized that sometimes being too rational is not necessarily a good thing.
