Chapter 148: 148 arrangements

"Wife, I’m getting jealous hearing other men’s names from your mouth."

Jiang Xinyu glared at him, still unsure whether to speak or not.

"In my impression, Shen Xueqi is quite a decent person. Although his family background is good, he’s not like those playboys from wealthy families.

He used to be in the army and later, after retiring, became the section chief of the public security bureau in our city."

"What about his family? Have you heard anything about it? Is his family happy?"

"They should be happy, I guess. His wife used to be a star performer in an arts troupe, and now she’s a director in the mine’s art troupe."

"Oh? Have you heard about their marital relationship?"

Wei Kaiyun shook his head, "Haven’t heard anything. Shen Xueqi is very low-key; we’ve only met a few times."

Jiang Xinyu frowned, thinking that the book mentioned their marital relationship was very bad. But of course, no one publicly discusses their marital issues.

"Wife, is there something wrong with Shen Xueqi?"

"I can’t really express it; stop asking."

I wonder if the male and female lead have met at this time?

"Wife, stop thinking about other men. Think about me, look at me." With that, he hugged Jiang Xinyu and wouldn’t let go.

At noon, the two of them made dumplings together with three fresh fillings: pork, egg, and shrimp.

Working together as a couple feels sweet, and with delicious food, it made Wei Kaiyun look forward to having a wife in the future.

He forcibly held her for a "nap," which drove Jiang Xinyu crazy.

In the afternoon, the two put on coats and went out for a stroll.

Walking on the street, Wei Kaiyun wasn’t as clingy as he was at home, mainly because he was afraid of leaving a bad impression.

"Is this good for you?"

"How many people know us? Besides, even if they do, we’re not doing anything; what’s there to say?"

"The Huang Family is coming tomorrow. The day after, shall we go to the city for a walk?"

"Sure, if you’re bored, we can play at the mine club."

"Compared to the textile management bureau’s club, which one is better?"

"They’re about the same; the mine club should be bigger."

"Can we get in?"

"Yes, let’s go to the cinema. Wherever you want to go, we’ll go."

The two didn’t go to crowded places, just walked around near home.

Because they dressed casually, they didn’t attract much attention.

"It’s so cold; it’s only the fifth of December and hasn’t reached the coldest days yet."

"I feel cold too. Let’s go back home." Wei Kaiyun really didn’t want to go out. He just wanted to stay at home cuddled up with his wife.

In the evening, they made seafood porridge, soy-braised beef, and red sausage.

"Wife, I could gain twenty pounds in a month."

"That’s quite an exaggeration."

"Really, you’ll see."

The next day, just after finishing breakfast, they heard a knock on the door.

Jiang Xinyu didn’t let Wei Kaiyun go out and went to open the door herself.

"Who is it?"

"Is this Director Jiang’s house?"

"Yes, hold on a moment."

Jiang Xinyu opened the door and saw a young boy outside, clearly Huang Hongwei’s son. But this young man inherited the best features of both parents; he was a handsome youth.

"Hello, I’m Jiang Xinyu. Are you Sister Dong’s son?"

"Hello, Director Jiang. I’m Huang Yi."

"Wait a moment, I’ll change my clothes and take you to the furniture factory."

The young boy nodded, giving a shy smile.

"Huang Hongwei’s son is here. I’m taking him to the furniture factory to get settled."

"Wife, I’ll go with you."

"You, are you sure it’s okay?"

"It’s fine, I’ll just talk to Liang Youfa."

Jiang Xinyu shrugged. Since he said it’s not a problem, she had no objections.

The two put on coats. Jiang Xinyu gave Wei Kaiyun a cotton hat, and she put one on too.

"Wife, this hat is quite comfortable."

"And here’s a scarf; I brought it back from Russia."

Fully equipped, Wei Kaiyun went to the side room to get the bicycle.

"I’ll carry the kid, and you take the luggage."

Jiang Xinyu nodded. Huang Yi sat on Wei Kaiyun’s bicycle, feeling he was a step closer to success.

His mother told him two days ago that he could be an apprentice at the furniture factory, and he was genuinely happy.

When their parents divorced, he hated his father, but there was nothing he could do. His mother calmly accepted it and told him not to hate his father.

At that time, he hated himself for being weak and powerless. Now the opportunity has come. His mother said Director Jiang from the textile factory is willing to help them.

Having hope brought light to his previously painful and helpless heart.

The furniture factory was quite far, taking about forty minutes to get there. Jiang Xinyu directly went to the gate and asked to see Hao Shichao.

"Are you and Secretary Hao very close?"

Jiang Xinyu gave Wei Kaiyun a helpless glare; this man was something.

Hao Shichao came out and paused when he saw Wei Kaiyun.

"Director Wei?"

"Secretary Hao, I came to see your Director Liang."

"Then please come in.

Director Jiang, is this the young person you mentioned?"

"Yes, could you please arrange it? He’s still young, so please take care of him."

"Sure, come, I’ll take you guys over."

"Secretary Hao, I’ll go find Director Liang myself; you get busy." Wei Kaiyun smiled and nodded.

Jiang Xinyu and Huang Yi followed Hao Shichao to the office to register.

"Young man, the apprentice’s salary is twenty a month, accommodation included but not meals."

"Thank you, Secretary Hao."

"No problem, I’ll take you to the dormitory to settle in first."

"Secretary Hao, which master will Huang Yi be learning from?" Might as well see it through to the end.

"He’ll learn from Master Hao." After saying this, he winked at Jiang Xinyu.

"Huang Yi, quickly thank Secretary Hao."

After arranging things for Huang Yi, the two went to Director Liang’s office.

Before they even arrived, they heard Liang Youfa’s hearty laughter from inside.

"Director Jiang is here. Please have a seat. Having met up with Director Wei today, I’ll host; let’s go out for lunch."

"Old Liang, I said I’ll host."

"No need to be so polite. It’s not easy for you to come back.

Secretary Hao, notify several directors to gather for lunch, let Sun Baosheng bring the liquor."

"Yes, I’ll make the calls now. Director Liang, should we follow?"

"Follow, follow, everyone go; you have good relationships, a chance to connect."

"Director Liang, I won’t disturb you, I’ll wait in Secretary Hao’s office." Jiang Xinyu didn’t want to stay there.

"Director Jiang, want to make a call?"

"Better if Secretary Hao does it; I want some water."

"How did you run into Director Wei?"

"Secretary Hao, still notify the director of the supply and sales cooperative?" Couldn’t answer that question.

"Of course, didn’t you notice our Director Liang and Director Xu from the supply cooperative have a good relationship?"

Jiang Xinyu awkwardly smiled. "I genuinely hadn’t noticed."

Hao Shichao first called Lv Beiguang, "Our director is inviting your director for lunch; we’re going too, but you have to bring the liquor."

"Okay, I understand."

"Oh, Director Jiang, Director Wei will be there too."
