Even if we help him save some, we can only save a few boxes at most.
This is an unopened pack of cigarettes; I have no idea how he got his hands on it.
"I have my own ways. If you need to give anything away in the future, just come to me. I can get any kind of cigarettes or alcohol."
Zhang Dajun knew that He Hongyang was capable.
He might be more polite if we're talking about other things.
But these two things are truly indispensable!
I started asking around two months ago, trying to get a bottle of wine to give as a gift.
But I haven't been able to get it yet.
If I had known He Hongyang had connections, I should have gone to him first!
He took an envelope out of his pocket.
"Here are 100 jin of grain coupons and 100 yuan. Could you help me get a bottle stand?"
Zhang Dajun spoke in a very soft voice.
He knew he was putting He Hongyang in a difficult position.
Other wines are easier to obtain, but the ones sold at the counter are almost all specially supplied and impossible to get.
To everyone's surprise, He Hongyang readily agreed.
"no problem."
Zhang Dajun was shocked!
"I'm talking about the table. This isn't just any ordinary liquor. Are you sure you can really get your hands on it?"
"You still don't believe me? I, He Hongyang, always keep my word. I'll bring it to you when I take my mother-in-law to work tomorrow."
what?
Can he get it tomorrow?
He had asked someone to do something for him for two months without success, but He Hongyang managed to get it done for him in just one day!
It seems he knows some high-ranking officials, not just any ordinary ones.
He spoke of it so casually, as if getting a bottle of liquor was as easy as getting a bottle of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor).
I used to think he was just a skilled doctor.
I never expected that, despite the scarcity of supplies, he could get them for me so effortlessly.
He must have agreed so readily because they have a good relationship.
If it were someone else, they definitely wouldn't have been able to do it.
Zhang Dajun was extremely grateful.
He will take care of his mother-in-law's household registration and employment right away!
arrive home.
Seeing that Zhao Ailing was still busy outside.
The entire yard was filled with his family's clothes.
The area outside the yard was swept clean.
The inside was tidy and organized, even the small kitchen was clean and tidy.
I never expected her to be so capable.
In just one day, the house was thoroughly cleaned inside and out.
They not only tidied up their house.
Even Sha Zhu and He Yushui's room was cleaned up.
They changed and washed all their dirty clothes, sheets, and blankets.
Upon seeing He Hongyang return, she immediately took his bag.
"You're back so early, are you hungry? I'll go cook right away."
"Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."
Zhao Ailing looked at him with a smile.
Her smile was especially warm, like the winter sun, making people feel cozy.
Having a mother-in-law in the family makes all the difference!
Although Wang Liying had kept her home in perfect order before.
But she is young after all, and there are some things she does not do as well as her mother.
Moreover, she's heavily pregnant and still has to go to work, so she simply can't handle all this work.
She's here now.
The house has returned to its former cleanliness and tidiness.
When I got home from get off work and saw it, I felt incredibly relieved!
Have you ever cooked at home before?
What kind of question is that? She cooked both breakfast and lunch this morning.
Is it because I did something wrong that he asked me that?
Sha Zhu had studied cooking.
Although her cooking skills can't compare to Sha Zhu's, she can definitely make everyday meals.
In their area, she would help organize any weddings or funerals in any family.
"Is it because the food I cooked isn't to your liking? Tell me what went wrong, and I'll fix it right away. Or I can learn from Sha Zhu and see what you like to eat."
Seeing her flustered appearance, He Hongyang quickly explained.
"I want to ask, if you were asked to cook for a dozen or so people, could you manage it?"
"The meals are simple; every day at noon, we only have one dish and one soup."
She didn't know why He Hongyang asked that question.
But she can cook such simple meals for more than a dozen people, or even more than 20.
"no problem."
"Come with me to the street office tomorrow. From now on, I'll go there every day at noon to help with cooking."
Zhao Ailing thought she was going to help out, so she readily agreed: "Okay, just tell me where it is, and I'll go tomorrow."
"Although you're only a temporary worker earning 20 yuan a month, once you've settled in, I'll see if I can help you get a permanent position."
Zhao Ailing thought she had misheard.
Weren't you going to help out? How come you have money? And why did you say that temporary workers are cold?
Could it be that He Hongyang found her a job?
She stared wide-eyed, utterly disbelieving.
He's only been here one day and already has a job?
140. When my mother-in-law went to work, the whole hospital went numb.
Isn't work in Beijing very demanding these days?
My daughter told me that she found her job a few years ago, and it would be very difficult to find one now.
Besides, she's already so old, nobody wants her anyway.
The factory prefers recent graduates, why would they hire her?
As far as she knew, almost none of the women in the courtyard who were around her age had jobs, so how could she possibly have one?
"Hongyang, don't try to scare me. What temporary worker? You've got me all confused."
"I found you a job at the local factory office, but it's just a small factory, and it's only a temporary job. Don't you want to take it?"
Zhao Ailing grabbed his arm excitedly: "Of course I want to do it, but... what should I do?"
"As I just said, I cook one meal every day at noon, and that's 20 yuan a month."
Zhao Ailing stammered and could barely speak.
I never dreamed that I would have a job and be able to earn a salary.
In other words, she will also have to go to work, just like her daughter?
This news was like a pie falling from the sky and landing right on her head.
"Is this true? I can go back to work now, but I'm so old. Will they hire me? What if I can't last more than a few days before they fire me?"
"No, I've already said that I'll find a way to make you a permanent employee after a while."
"It feels like a dream, I don't even know what to say."
"But after you go to work, you'll still have to do housework. Won't that be too tiring? Can you manage it?"
Zhao Ailing nodded excitedly: "I can definitely handle it. It's just one meal a day. Even if I have to cook three meals a day, I can still manage the housework."
He Hongyang just went out; it must have been because of 964 regarding this matter.
Although he is capable and knows many people.
But Zhao Ailing knew that finding a job wasn't easy, and he certainly didn't know how much effort it took to find this job for himself.
This job is easy, pays well, and allows me to do housework.
Even if her daughter has children in the future, she can manage.
She'll be cooking in the cafeteria again, which means she won't have to eat lunch at home anymore, saving her family a meal's cost.
Once she has a salary, she can not only send money home, but also help He Hongyang supplement his household expenses.
That way, I won't be drinking here for nothing.
"I will definitely work hard, whether I'm at home or at work, I won't let either interfere with my work."
Jia Zhangshi and an older woman overheard the two of them talking outside.
When Zhao Ailing excitedly said something about going to work, he was surprised.
The two people stared wide-eyed.
"Did she find a job?"
impossible!
It's simply impossible!
He found a job after only one day here.
The factories in Beijing don't belong to the He family, so how could he expect to find work immediately just because he wants to?
The two of them rushed out.
"What were you talking about? Did you find a job for your mother-in-law?"
"Impossible, we must have misheard. Has Wang Liying's work situation changed?"
He Hongyang completely ignored them.
"I'm going back."
Seeing that Zhao Ailing was about to go in, the two quickly pulled her away.
"Tell us quickly, what exactly happened? Did we hear that right?"
