Chapter 33 Xu Damao Fishing
53 has arrived.
The steel rolling mill recently started grading exams, which delighted the workers who aspired to improve their grades.
Jia Dongxu was also very happy. He had been a disciple for so long, and had even endured the fact that his wife and master were going to the cellar. He had been waiting for this day to come.
If I pass the exam and become a Level 3 worker, my monthly salary will be nearly 500,000 yuan.
Then I can support my family and live a good life.
Jia Dongxu even felt that he might be able to try to break through to level four. If he could break through to level four, he would really be able to hold his head high.
Becoming a Level 4 worker means you're ready to graduate and no longer need to learn from your master.
The rest he had to figure out on his own; Jia Dongxu had long wanted to break free from Yi Zhonghai's control.
Jia Dongxu was very proud of himself for a long time when he became a master apprentice.
Later, Jia Dongxu gradually realized that Yi Zhonghai was too controlling.
It not only controls your technology, but also your life, your friendships, and your thoughts.
In the past, Jia Dongxu liked to occasionally go out for drinks and play cards with his coworkers, but he was always reprimanded by Yi Zhonghai.
Gradually, Jia Dongxu lost interest in going, as he was annoyed by Yi Zhonghai's constant nagging.
Jia Dongxu didn't actually object to the fact that Yi Zhonghai had taken him in as a disciple so that he could support him in his old age.
As long as the other party sincerely teaches me the skills, they will hand over their house and savings to me later.
At worst, he'll get old; I'll just bring him a steamed bun every day—I'm sure I can't let him starve.
The premise is that the other party gives you everything in advance.
Otherwise, we can do as Jia Zhangshi said: when the other party is old and frail, we can manipulate them at will.
Jia Dongxu is such a genuine, obedient, sensible, and filial good child.
This exam is extremely important for Jia Dongxu; he's even stopped doing his family's traditional craft these past few days. He wants to redeem himself and rise again today.
Once I become a level four worker, I'll let Yi Zhonghai die. Unless he immediately hands over his salary to him, then out of consideration for the other's filial piety, I'll give him a steamed bun in the future.
Sigh, what can I do? I'm too soft-hearted.
Both Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai are working hard, waiting to shine in front of everyone.
They are both master chefs now, but there's no hierarchy between them. This grading exam will let everyone know who has the highest level.
In the past, the master steelworkers in the rolling mill all thought they were the best. There was no fair test to distinguish their skill levels.
After this grading exam, everyone's levels are clearly distinguished. It's immediately obvious what level of worker you are.
Upon hearing that Yi Zhonghai planned to directly aim for the eighth-level worker, Liu Haizhong felt somewhat anxious.
He felt that he was quite far from being a level eight worker. Could it be that Yi Zhonghai was going to stand out again this time?
In the courtyard house, Yi Zhonghai is just an ordinary person now, but he is a liaison officer.
He had a lot of apprentices in the factory, but now all of Yi Zhonghai's apprentices have left, leaving only Jia Dongxu.
Leaving aside Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong secretly worked hard to compete for the top spot in the grading exam.
Today, He Yuzhu came to the old courtyard again. Qin Huairu ate the braised pig's trotters in her hand with big bites, not caring that her face was covered in oil.
"Are you kidding me? I don't think I've skimped on food for you."
"As for that, I haven't eaten meat for a month. Every time I smell the meat in your room, I have to use all my strength to control myself and not knock on the door."
Qin Huairu felt very wronged as she spoke.
"You, didn't you get any meat at home? I've smelled meat being eaten in your family several times."
"My mother-in-law was like a reincarnated starving ghost, and that good-for-nothing was also a big eater. By the time it was my turn, only scraps were left."
The man stroked the woman's soft hair, feeling sorry for her for three seconds.
"Then you can come every three days from now on. It's only the beginning of spring, and it's still a bit cold."
"Okay, I understand, thank you."
"Why are you saying this? Here, take this and hide it secretly. Eat one when you're hungry."
Qin Huairu hurriedly took the bag of milk candy that the man handed her.
This is a good thing; eating one now and then will sweeten your heart.
Her life is now completely bleak. Holding her son is a small comfort, and seeing him is her only happy time.
"I've noticed Xu Damao hanging around you a lot lately."
"I ignored him; he contacted me first."
Qin Huairu hurriedly explained, afraid that the man would be angry and ignore her.
Honestly, if she weren't currently obsessed with men, she might not have been able to resist Xu Damao's temptation.
After all, that guy was a ruthless person, actually willing to offer 500,000 to tempt me.
Unfortunately, her heart now belongs to a man.
Most importantly, Qin Huairu clearly understood the difference between being full at one meal and being full at every meal.
Xu Damao was willing to pay 500,000 yuan because he hadn't gotten what he wanted.
Once he gives it to the other party, Xu Damao will definitely not be so generous in the future.
No matter what promises the other party makes, Qin Huairu will not trust them.
Men rarely make promises, and they have never even sworn an oath.
However, after nearly a year, the man proved with his actions that he did have someone else in his heart.
Not to mention the fixed monthly allowance of 100,000 yuan, just the meat we eat every time we meet adds up to nearly 60,000 to 70,000 yuan a month.
A few days ago, when she went back to her parents' home, her husband gave her a bag of fruit candy, three pounds of pastries, and five pounds of pork at the bus stop.
Qin Huairu was in the limelight when she returned home that time.
Qin Huairu brought more things than she did on her wedding day, and secretly gave her parents 50,000 yuan, which made them very happy.
The man stroked Qin Huairu's hair, thinking that this was the right way to portray a pure and innocent woman.
Look at them now, they've even managed to refuse Xu Damao.
He knew all too well how efficient Xu Damao was at finding women.
As the original owner's lifelong enemy, Xu Damao was truly skilled at manipulating women.
The key is that he's really willing to spend money; basically, once Xu Damao sets his sights on someone, it's hard for him not to succeed.
The man didn't know how much money Xu Damao was willing to spend to win over Qin Huairu, but he could tell that he must have promised a considerable sum.
As his lifelong rival, he understood very well how cunning Xu Damao was.
Qin Huairu has become increasingly beautiful and charming lately. Not to mention Xu Damao, even the men in the courtyard are completely captivated by her.
Liu Guangqi, Liu Guangtian, Yan Jiecheng, and Yan Jiefang, a few teenagers, also came to the Intermediate People's Court every day to secretly watch Qin Huairu.
At this point, it's understandable that Xu Damao would directly target Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu really had no intention of looking for other men; she knew their personalities very well.
We've been in contact for a year now, and I've gone from initially believing that the other person couldn't live without me.
With just a little manipulation, she could easily control the other person. Gradually, she would fall for them and become willing to give everything for them.
At the same time, she was also very clear that no matter how affectionate the man was towards her now, it was all for naught.
If she does anything outrageous, the other party will leave without any mercy.
Qin Huairu dared not imagine such an outcome; she had never believed before that she would become like this for a man.
Now, she has unknowingly fallen for the man's tricks. He is like a seductive devil, making her both love and hate him.
Even though the script wasn't like this, Qin Huairu was also confused. Yet, like a moth drawn to a flame, she wanted to become intoxicated by this illusion.
If the man left her now, she really couldn't imagine whether she would have the courage to continue living.
Over the course of a year, she was completely won over by his dual nature, which was sometimes domineering and sometimes gentle.
Sometimes, even after several days of not seeing each other, the other person doesn't seem to care at all. They only contact her suddenly when she's about to go crazy.
At this point, the other party proved how energetic he was with his actions, which actually showed that he would rather hold back than easily agree to meet her.
It was in this slow, drawn-out struggle that Qin Huairu lost her confidence and gradually dispelled her former greed.
Now, if the other person treats her even slightly well, Qin Huairu is overjoyed. She feels she's willing to give everything for him, and she even feels like she's already finished.
They were completely controlled by the other party, yet never thought of changing or escaping.
Who allowed this bad guy to get what she wanted from every angle? The 100,000 yuan of secret savings she had every month gave her the confidence to face the future.
The occasional treats she received satisfied her cravings. Most importantly…
This was the pleasure that she found most irresistible; Qin Huairu never imagined that men could be so different.
Putting aside that old geezer Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu was like a child in his presence.
Yes, it's as big as the difference between three years old and eighteen years old.
I doubt anyone would want to play with a three-year-old; it's not like you're just trying to soothe a child. The gap is too big; sometimes, you can easily be swept away by the waves.
When Jia Dongxu returned home in the afternoon, he found his son crying very hard, and his wife was feeding him some rice cereal.
Why aren't you letting him nurse?
"I don't know why my breast milk has stopped today. I'll just make him some rice cereal to fill him up."
Madam Jia lay in bed pretending to be dead. Even if her eldest grandson cried, she couldn't be bothered to get up and take care of him. She was willing to comfort him occasionally, but taking care of him every day was out of the question. She was in retirement age and couldn't look after the child every day.
Jia Dongxu was naturally helpless. After all, he felt guilty because his breast milk was not plentiful, wondering if it was because his wife wasn't getting enough to eat at home.
But his mother wouldn't give him money, and there was nothing he could do.
Even now that she has a son, the mother still only takes out 150,000 yuan each month.
Unfortunately, he has to prepare for exams recently, and he also needs to ensure his nutrition, so he eats a lot every time.
Qin Huairu glanced at the old woman secretly, thinking her a coward, and then ignored them.
Oh dear, that rascal deliberately ate all the baby's breast milk, making Bang Geng drink rice cereal so early now.
Qin Huairu was busy feeding her son at home, while Jia Zhangshi was still cursing and swearing at Li Tieniu.
The person Jia Zhangshi hates most now has changed from Sha Zhu to Li Tie Niu. It's because Li Tie Niu publicly humiliated her.
