Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Ye Chen added in his mind, "Our lineage is cheated by the system."

One pill is effective for any ailment; if one doesn't work, try two!

Lin Rongrong's eyes lit up when she heard Ye Chen say this; it was great news for her.

However, Lin's mother remained calm. After a moment's thought, she asked, "Young Master Ye, just tell me directly, what price do you require?"

This disease, which even hospitals cannot cure, is definitely difficult to treat.

If it could truly be cured, the price to pay would undoubtedly be enormous.

Ye Chen thought to himself that there must be a price to pay, which was gaining a son-in-law!

However, judging from how satisfied Lin's mother is with Dongzi, this little price is nothing at all; it's a great thing!

Ye Chen calmly said, "Auntie's condition requires treatment that addresses both the symptoms and the underlying cause. Acupuncture combined with medication is needed, and a full course of treatment is required for a complete cure!"

Upon hearing that there was a cure, Lin Rongrong almost burst into tears: "Ye Chen, you mean you have a way to cure my mother's illness?!"

Ye Chen nodded: "A course of treatment might take about a month. You can all stay here during this time for the convenience of your treatment!"

Lin's mother asked bluntly, "Young Master Ye, how much will this treatment cost?"

She was slightly excited when Ye Chen said that it could cure the disease, but she was also a little worried.

If it's too much money, then...

Ye Chen chuckled and said, "Hehe, Auntie, money is no big deal. Don't worry, it's definitely much cheaper than taking medicine, and there are no side effects!"

Ye Chen didn't mention anything about it being free in front of her.

Free things are the most expensive, and they also tend to make people overthink.

Ye Chen's words were essentially a way of reassuring her!

As expected, Lin's mother smiled when she heard Ye Chen say that, which was clearly within her acceptable range.

If she takes medicine for this illness, it will cost her a lot of money every month, but if it can be cured, she would be willing to spend a year's worth of medicine money.

At Ye Chen's invitation, the group went out to find food while chatting.

Dongzi was very thoughtful and specially ordered several dishes that the aunt could eat, so the meal was a pleasant one.

Dongzi even paid the bill in advance, he was very proactive.

Lin Rongrong took the initiative to tell Dongzi that she wanted to find a temporary job and asked Dongzi to help her think of some options.

Dongzi wasn't surprised; this was within their expectations.

Dongzi was very happy that Lin Rongrong took the initiative to talk to him about this topic and even asked for his opinion.

If a girl asks for your opinion, it proves that you've unknowingly begun to hold a place in her heart.

When you become accustomed to having me in your life, everything will fall into place naturally, and you won't be able to get rid of me no matter what.

The treatment takes so long, she can't just sit at home all day.

People tend to overthink when they have free time, and overthinking can easily lead to various problems.

She went out to find some work and earn some money to cover her expenses. This would help her pass the time and give her peace of mind.

In her eyes, her mother's illness still had loopholes that needed to be filled, and it was neither possible nor realistic to let her relax.

So Dongzi agrees with her finding a job!

Temporary jobs are actually easy to find, but they are quite tiring and the pay is generally average.

You might work yourself to the bone for a month and still not earn 3000 yuan.

Having served as a servant for two years, Dongzi naturally understood the hardships of ordinary people.

He wanted Rongrong to find a job, but one that was relatively easy.

"Rongrong, I think you should find a regular job, something easy with flexible hours. Someone as talented as you is wasting your potential doing temporary work. Temporary jobs are easy to find but don't offer much lasting value and won't help your future!"

Dongzi began by outlining the advantages and disadvantages.

Lin Rongrong also seriously considered Dongzi's words. What Dongzi said actually made sense, and she had thought about it as well.

But now she is somewhat confused, perhaps because she doesn't know where her roots are and can't make a final decision.

If I find a formal job, I'll inevitably have to live in Xiamen for an extended period of time!

At this moment, Lin's mother spoke up: "Rongrong, I think Xiaodong is right. You should find a suitable job and stop doing temporary work. Lucheng has such a good environment; so many people want to come but can't. Just stay in Lucheng and work hard. Don't keep thinking about going back. Even if you go back to your hometown, what can you do? Herd cattle and sheep with us?!"

Lin Rongrong opened her mouth. Yes, even if she went back to her hometown, would she follow the nomads? Was that the life she wanted?

If that were the case, I wouldn't have traveled all the way back to Xiamen in the first place!

Ye Chen added fuel to the fire: "Just find a regular job. If you really don't like it, you can quit later, right? Temporary jobs are all manual labor. You've done part-time jobs in college, and the pay is low. I suggest you choose a job in the Binhai area; it's closer and more convenient for commuting!"

Lin Rongrong hesitated for a while before finally nodding: "These days, jobs are hard to find, and finding a job that matches your skills is even harder. I'm afraid I won't be able to find a job anytime soon!"

I can understand her feelings. When you urgently need money, most people would think of finding a job as soon as possible, even just to have some income.

But as the saying goes, sharpening your axe won't delay your work; you can see things more clearly from the outside.

Dongzi quickly interjected, "If you can't find it, take your time. There's no rush. I'll take care of you!"

Dongzi realized his mistake as soon as the words left his mouth and quickly tried to salvage the situation: "No, I meant that we have so much rice, flour, and cooking oil at home, and we can easily grow some vegetables in the yard. Our living costs aren't high, so you can take your time finding a job. You don't need to feel so much pressure!"

Lin Rongrong blushed slightly: "Who said we're 'our family'? We're just roommates, okay? I'll pay the rent!"

Dongzi nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's exactly what I meant!"

"Actually, I wanted to go to Xingcai Foods. I knew about this company when I was in school. The corporate culture and benefits are very good, but they don't recruit much. I just saw a job opening yesterday, but I don't know if I have a chance!" Lin Rongrong sighed.

Dongzi comforted him, saying, "I believe everything is God's arrangement; it will definitely happen!"

Lin Rongrong shook her head: "Don't be too optimistic. For positions with only one opening, it's often filled through internal referrals. I'll go back and submit my resume to other companies."

Ye Chen was slightly taken aback when he heard Xingcai Foods. Isn't that Old Zhou's company?

Oh, you want to go to Xingcai Foods? Well, isn't that just a matter of a word?

Ye Chen casually asked, "Squad leader, which position at Xingcai have you taken a fancy to? I know someone who works there, I can ask them for you."

"Oh, really?"

Lin Rongrong's eyes lit up, but then she thought of something and said, "If it's too much trouble, then don't bother. These ordinary employees probably can't help much. I heard they have a very clear division of labor!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly: "He does hold some kind of official position, what do you think?"
