Chapter 298: Chapter 298: Words of Tigers and Wolves
“Ouch, Wife, are you trying to murder your own husband?” Jiang Changhai clutched his waist and complained with an exaggerated expression of grievance.
“I’m talking about serious matters here.” Su Wanyu glared at him.
“Oh, Wife, don’t worry too much about money matters, it’s just the friendship between the two kids, Buddy Yu must see Mianmian as his own little sister. Plus, we don’t just take without giving, we’ll also buy an expensive gift when it’s Yu Cheng’s birthday.”
As Jiang Changhai spoke, he even began to feel proud: “My daughter is so likable, you see, even a calm kid like Yu Cheng is so fond of our Mianmian.”
“That’s right, have you forgotten who Mianmian’s mother is?” Su Wanyu was also somewhat proud.
“My wife is truly amazing.”
Jiang Changhai smiled mischievously and lowered his voice: “But I have my merits too, you couldn’t have had her on your own, right?”
What sort of shocking words are these, she is still a child!
The workers at the transport factory, seeing Jiang Changhai’s beautiful wife and his pretty, delicately-crafted daughter visiting him again, were all very envious.
“This fellow must have burned some serious incense in his past life to be this blessed in this life, with both wife and daughter being so beautiful.”
“No kidding, I heard Jiang Changhai’s daughter is exceptionally good at her studies, a well-known prodigy, she was even commended at the commune’s big meeting during the New Year.”
“If I ever have such a beautiful daughter, I’d give her anything she wants.”
Listening to his coworkers whispering amongst themselves, Jiang Changhai said, “Wife, the cafeteria has your favorite pork stewed with vermicelli today.”
After queuing up in the cafeteria and finishing their meal, Su Wanyu calculated the cost of the meal and winced, “Brother Hai, we can’t keep eating at the cafeteria , it’s not sustainable. Let’s just buy a pot and cook in your dorm; it’ll save us the trip back home after eating here.”
They had some money now, and no one wanted to go back home to eat coarse grains and wild vegetables, but eating at the cafeteria every day was not a long-term solution either, as it was too expensive.
Hearing this, Jiang Changhai sincerely praised her, “Wife, you always think things through.”
Though the factory’s cafeteria was subsidized and much cheaper than state-owned restaurant.
Purchasing their own meat and rice to cook was not only better but also more economical.”
“But where do we get a pot?” Su Wanyu frowned slightly, a look of gentle concern showing on her beautiful face.
Iron was regulated these days, it wasn’t something you could just buy.
“Leave that to me, I’ll figure out a way to get a pot, you don’t have to worry about it, I promise I’ll sort it out,” Jiang Changhai patted his chest, taking on the task.
His wife was beautiful, even when she frowned!
Su Wanyu felt relieved and happily served him more meat, “Good, Brother Hai, eat more meat.”
After eating at the cafeteria, the family of three strolled leisurely toward Stone Bridge Village.
Those in the village who had not yet gone to sleep greeted them warmly, “Yo, Changhai, Changhai’s wife, why are you returning so late? Is the transport factory that busy?”
Now, Jiang Changhai and Jiang Mianmian were widely recognized in Stone Bridge Village as people destined for great things, receiving greetings wherever they went.
“The transport factory is okay, not too busy, we were just eating there before coming back,” Jiang Changhai responded energetically.
“You’ve really made something of yourself now, I’ve heard the food at the factory is really good.”
