Chapter 3: Defrauding Xu Damao of a dollar to get extra meals
Jia Dongxu returned to his home and lay down directly on the bed.
When he wants to think about life, the most important thing is to barely eat enough at noon, and he doesn't want to waste energy by moving around.
Hmm... I'm going to ask for leave the day after tomorrow to get married to Qin Huairu... I might as well just ask for three days of marriage leave.
I have just married Qin Huairu, so I am definitely going through a lot of trouble, and I have no intention of going to work. I just don’t know if my small body can handle it.
After traveling through time, his body did not become particularly strong, which made him a little disappointed.
In a few days, wages will be closed, and wages must no longer be handed over to cheap mom Jia Zhang.
Now that he is married, he will be the master of the family from now on, and it must rise.
And... The day after tomorrow, I negotiated with Qin Huairu to buy a sewing machine, and immediately asked Jia Zhang, the cheap and lazy mother, to do housework.
When the time comes, Jia and Zhang will definitely make trouble, and may even hold a general meeting. We need to figure out how to deal with this...
Jia Dongxu started to fall asleep as he thought about it.
He slept until about five o'clock in the afternoon, when Mr. Jia and Zhang rushed him up to cook.
After finishing the meal, he went outside to wash clothes.
Before he could buy the sewing machine, he would put up with Jia Zhang for the time being.
Sunday passed like this.
Early the next morning, Jia Dongxu got up early and made breakfast, then went to work at the steel rolling mill.
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, he saw Xu Damao in front of him from a distance, so he ran over and stopped Xu Damao.
"Xu Damao, come here."
Xu Damao said in a panic: "Jia Dongxu, what do you want to do?"
"Although I said bad things about your family yesterday, your mother has already extorted five yuan from my family. What else do you want?"
Facing Jia Dongxu, who was much taller than him, Xu Damao was still a little timid.
Silly Zhu, who was walking in front, turned back and persuaded with his hands behind his back: "Jia Dongxu, the matter is over, please don't embarrass Xu Damao."
Silly Zhu and Xu Damao have never dealt with each other. Normally, he would not care about Xu Damao, hoping that Xu Damao would give Jia Dongxu a beating.
But yesterday he saw that such a beautiful Qin Huairu was about to become Jia Dongxu's wife, and he was jealous, so he came over to stop Jia Dongxu.
"Silly Zhu, I have something good to do with Xu Damao, but it's not your responsibility."
"Xu Damao, let's take a moment to talk. I won't hit you. If I wanted to hit you, I would have done it to you last night. I'm looking for you for good reasons."
Jia Dongxu glanced at Shazhu and pulled Xu Damao to the side.
Silly Zhu asked for trouble, snorted and turned around to leave.
Xu Damao thought for a while and followed Jia Dongxu to the side with hesitation.
"Jia Dongxu, what good things do you want from me?"
"You have also met my partner, your sister Qin. Do you think she is good-looking?"
"It's beautiful. There are no such beautiful girls in the entire steel rolling mill."
"As long as you think it looks good." Jia Dongxu chuckled, then put his arm around Xu Damao's shoulders.
"Xu Damao, although you say bad things about me, I won't argue with you."
"Why? Because we are brothers, and I have found such a beautiful wife, so naturally I cannot forget you, brother."
"Your sister Qin told me that she has a relative who is just as good looking as her and about the same age. He should not be married either."
"Do you want your sister Qin to introduce her relatives to you in the future?"
Xu Damao immediately shook his head and walked away: "No, I want to find a daughter-in-law with a city registered permanent residence, and a daughter-in-law who is more beautiful than Qin Huairu."
He always felt that something was wrong with Jia Dongxu today.
Jia Dongxu quickly pulled Xu Damao back: "Xu Damao, don't leave."
"I think it's not too late for you to meet your sister Qin's relatives first, and then decide whether you must marry a wife from the city."
Xu Damao stopped and thought for a moment, then asked doubtfully: "Qin Huairu's relatives are really as beautiful as her? Are you lying to me?"
Jia Dongxu nodded and said seriously: "You are the smartest among the younger generation in our compound. How can I deceive you? What's more, have I deceived you since I was a child?"
Xu Damao thought for a while and felt that Jia Dongxu's words were very reasonable.
Jia Dongxu is an honest man, even a little dull, but he is stupid and silly, and he is often beaten by his father.
In terms of intelligence, among the younger generation in the compound, he, Xu Damao, dares to be ranked second, but no one dares to be ranked first, otherwise he would not be a projectionist.
"Xu Damao, you and I grew up together. We are brothers. If you are willing to let your sister Qin introduce her relatives to you, then you can give me a dollar."
"When Sister Qin comes over, I will immediately arrange for her to introduce you."
Jia Dongxu knew that Xu Damao was moved.
Who is Xu Damao? With a daughter-in-law like Lou Xiao'e, even if she goes to the mountains and countryside to play movies, she still has to touch the owner of the widow's house.
"Okay, I believe you. It's just one dollar. I'll give it to you. Remember to ask Qin Huairu to introduce her relatives to me later."
Xu Damao hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly took out a dollar and stuffed it into Jia Dongxu's hand.
Both he and his father are working at home, and he occasionally goes to the mountains and countryside to play movies and receive small gifts. He has a lot of pocket money in his hand, and he is not short of this dollar.
What he wants is to really find someone who is no worse than Qin Huairu. Even if he has a rural household registration, it is not impossible to consider.
"Don't worry while I do the work, just wait and see." Jia Dongxu smiled and kicked a dollar into his pocket... You can add food at noon.
As for the introduction? Where will there be any introduction? Then just find an excuse to say that Qin Huairu’s relatives have a partner.
After cheating Xu Damao out of a dollar, Jia Dongxu happily went to work at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill.
Jia Dongxu spent the whole morning working hard in the workshop.
Originally, his job was easy, but his master Yi Zhonghai didn't teach him any skills at all, so it was his turn to do less technical work.
As soon as the bell rang, the workers rushed to the cafeteria with their lunch boxes.
If you go early, you can get more discounts, and the food will be the freshest and hottest.
Jia Dongxu slowly walked over with his lunch box.
It will come naturally if he has enough to eat. Now that he has money, he doesn't care if he can take advantage of that little bit more.
When he was lining up, Xu Damao happened to be right behind him.
After arriving at Jia Dongxu, he stretched out his lunch box and shouted to Silly Zhu who was serving food at the window: "Two white noodles, three hot dishes, and two eggs!"
"Jia Dongxu, don't you plan to live this life? A meal costs 38 cents?"
Silly Zhu looked surprised and couldn't help but ask.
This is definitely a luxurious meal. No worker in the entire steel rolling mill dares to order so many meals so arrogantly.
"Jia Dongxu, did you defraud me of that dollar and use it for extra meals?"
Xu Damao stared at Jia Dongxu with suspicion.
"Xu Damao, you didn't think too much, we are brothers, how could I lie to you?"
"I will get married to your sister Qin tomorrow. You sister Qin is so beautiful. We will definitely have to go through a lot of trouble during the wedding."
"My mother gave me an extra two yuan so that I could eat well during this period and recuperate in advance."
Jia Dongxu patted Xu Damao's shoulder and explained with a smile.
Xu Damao didn't quite believe that the famously stingy Jia Zhang would give more money to Jia Dongxu, but he still suspected that Jia Dongxu cheated him of the dollar.
But Jia Dongxu’s words are very reasonable and impeccable.
