Chapter 181: At Shazhu’s request, Dongsheng leaves the city.
The transaction had been completed, and Jia Dongxu and Yan Jiecheng had also noticed changes in themselves, but these were kept secret and did not cause any commotion in the hospital. As for Xu Dongsheng's promotion and salary increase, Xu Damao came to have a drink with Xu Dongsheng on Sunday night, and Sha Zhu also brought some peanuts to Xu Dongsheng. Because it was a celebration for Xu Dongsheng, it was the first time that Xu Damao and Sha Zhu sat at the same table and did not fight, although they were still squeezing each other while drinking.
But in the end, Xu Damao got drunk and was sent back by Sha Zhu. This made Xu Dongsheng a little confused. Could it be that Xu Damao and Sha Zhu were really a pair of bickering lovers, just because of their gender?
Xu Dongsheng couldn't figure it out, but he didn't think too much about it. After all, Xu Damao and Sha Zhu were now Xu Dongsheng's friends. It was good for Xu Dongsheng if their relationship could be eased a little.
Xu Dongsheng did not inquire about the twists and turns between Xu Damao and Sha Zhu, nor did he want to inquire. Let them develop however they want, and it has nothing to do with him at the moment.
"Dongsheng, my father has already replied to my last message to you. He said that if there is a letter, he will come to the capital to see me next month. If the meeting is successful, I am afraid that I will not be able to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, and my family will have to have a new member.
But you know, everyone is having a hard time these days. Even if I'm a cook, I can't give out much. It's okay if I can feed my whole family. When I work outside, people won't say anything if I bring some food with me. But if you have a family, Yu Shui is still in elementary school. I'm just a chef now, and I don't have much money to buy expensive food for a banquet."
After sending Xu Damao back to his room, Sha Zhu returned to Xu Dongsheng's house and told Xu Dongsheng the truth, because there were few people in the courtyard who wished good for him, Sha Zhu. Even if Xu Dongsheng was not one of them, Xu Dazhuang was one of them. That was why Sha Zhu told Xu Dongsheng the secret.
"Yes, it is true. We saw signs of this last year. However, this matter cannot be rushed. Besides, I can't get you a lot at a time. I can only get you a little at a time. You have to find a way to preserve it, especially the meat.
The weather is fine now, so there is no problem with preservation, but if it gets hot, it will be a problem. If it is fresh meat, it will not be kept for a few days, even if it is stored in the cellar, it will not last long.
"That's true. Then you can help me get something that can be preserved, such as bacon, and then food. If it really doesn't work, I can just use a little more meat, and that should be fine."
Sha Zhu was silent for a moment after hearing this, and did not refute Xu Dongsheng. After all, what Xu Dongsheng said was indeed the case. During the time when Xu Dongsheng worked as a purchasing agent, everyone in the hospital was aware of Xu Dongsheng's family situation and knew that Xu Dongsheng was not the kind of person who would abuse his power for personal gain. Therefore, it was reasonable for him to get a little at a time. Moreover, this was all because Xu Dongsheng had already helped him to a great extent.
"Okay, as long as you know what's going on. But aren't you too impatient? You haven't even met the person yet, and you're already thinking about the banquet?"
Xu Dongsheng nodded, but then asked again, "Isn't this situation a bit urgent? Why is Shazhu so anxious to prepare the banquet?" We haven't even met the people yet, so it's unclear whether it will work or not.
"Hey, my dad has shown me my photo. I'm a nice person. I look like a nice person. And my dad said that I'm hardworking, speaks well, and I'm popular in the village for what I do. It's feasible.
If the people come and check the version, my father will have explained my situation to them clearly, and as long as I don’t make any big mistakes, the matter will be settled and it will be done.”
Sha Zhu chuckled. Sha Zhu, who had already drunk some wine, looked even more stupid now. However, from Sha Zhu's eyes, one could tell that the photo sent by Lao He might have just hit the spot in Sha Zhu's heart.
As for whether she is willing to marry Sha Zhu, she is willing to come all the way from Baocheng to the capital, and it is obvious that she comes with the intention of getting married. That is why Sha Zhu said it is a sure thing. After all, she comes with the intention of getting married, so as long as he opens his mouth, the matter will be settled.
"I see. When I'm looking for things in the countryside, I'll try to exchange some things with my fellow villagers and friends for food and bacon. I'll get as much as I can before the Dragon Boat Festival. I can't get more than that."
Xu Dongsheng then made a promise to Sha Zhu, saying that he would help him search for things with all his heart, and that he would not buy them, but would exchange them with his fellow villagers in the countryside with things he bought in the city. He was not engaging in speculation. Although he believed that Sha Zhu would not say it, Xu Dongsheng still had to maintain this attitude. After all, walls have ears, so Xu Dongsheng always played it safe and was cautious.
"Okay, thank you for this first. When the time comes, in addition to the original food money, I will give you a big red envelope."
Sha Zhu did not force Xu Dongsheng to get a certain amount, but just hoped that Xu Dongsheng could help get more.
"Forget about the red envelopes. I'll have to drink a few more glasses of wine at the wedding."
Xu Dongsheng smiled and agreed to Sha Zhu, then had a few drinks with Sha Zhu and discussed the details with Sha Zhu, such as when to give it and how to give it. After everything was discussed, Sha Zhu drank the last drink before returning home.
In the blink of an eye, it was Monday and it was time to go on a business trip again. However, Xu Dongsheng was not in a hurry. He got up, packed up, and made breakfast. After having breakfast with Xu Dazhuang, Xu Dongsheng and Xu Dazhuang went to the steel mill together.
Along the way, Xu Dongsheng was thinking about whether he should buy some more furniture for his home. After all, he was making money too fast. He just got a thousand yuan the day before yesterday, and it was still in the hemisphere space. The savings in Xu Dongsheng's hemisphere space were getting more and more, but now he couldn't spend it. He could only keep it. If he didn't spend the money, it would all be waste paper.
As for spending money to buy collections, Xu Dongsheng had never thought about it. If he found one, he would buy it. If he didn't, forget it. After all, the space in the hemisphere is so small. If he put some collections in it, it would be a waste.
Therefore, Xu Dongsheng planned to ask Zhou Zhenghua for some other bills when the next delivery was made so that he could spend the money.
You don't have to make a big purchase all at once or engage in revenge consumption, but after all, you have been promoted and your salary has increased, so it's okay to buy some things casually.
After receiving the task from the purchasing department, Xu Dongsheng set off. This task was not very difficult. Of course, no matter how difficult it was, it was not a difficult task for him. After receiving the task, Xu Dongsheng just found a direction and set off. Staying in the city all day long is not a good thing. You can get more things by going out.
The most important thing is that there is a Shen Xiuping in this city. Shen Xiuping is not in class now, so she comes to him when she has nothing to do. He can probably understand Shen Xiuping's thoughts. Xu Dongsheng is not prepared to refuse, but he can't be too anxious. After all, he is just an adult and Shen Xiuping is only seventeen years old. It will take two or three years to get a marriage certificate, so he can't panic.
But Shen Xiuping is not bad either. He can't just give up on her. At least Xu Dongsheng has lived two lives, and this is the first time he has seen such a pretty, sweet and natural girl. So, he will accept her.
