Chapter 69: 69 Saturday

"Old Yang has special channels, if you lack anything in the future, just look for him. It’s safer than outside."

"Boss, you think too highly of me. How could I afford to buy things from Master Yang? Let’s talk about it when I get a raise."

The two arrived at Old Yang’s big courtyard, and Wei Kaiyun knocked on the door for quite a while before Old Yang came out yawning.

"Xiao Wei, why so early? Hey? The little girl is here too?"

"Old Yang, this little girl wants to broaden her horizons."

"There’s nothing much during the day. There’s an event tonight."

"Alright, we’ll go tonight. Old Yang, meat dumplings for lunch?" Wei Kaiyun asked.

"Sure. I still have pig head meat here. Xiao Wei, bring a bottle of baijiu, let’s have a good meal today."

"Okay, don’t be late at noon."

Does anyone respect my wishes? Although Jiang Xinyu was dissatisfied in her heart, she didn’t dare to show it. Cowardly, really too cowardly.

Jiang Xinyu didn’t use Wei Kaiyun for a ride, she went home to make dumplings herself.

Thinking of their appetite, Jiang Xinyu made two hundred dumplings, one hundred and twenty pure meat, and eighty with fatty pig head meat and cabbage.

Sugar and vinegar shredded radish, kelp strips salad, fried peanuts, and a plate of vermicelli sausage.

When Old Yang and the others arrived at twelve, they were quite satisfied seeing the dishes on the table.

Wei Kaiyun carried the pig head brought by Old Yang to the living room to change it, the two sat down to drink.

"Xiao Wei, what do you think of this young lady?"

"Not sure."

"What do you mean by not sure?"

"I haven’t figured it out yet either. Old Yang, is the stuff in your hands all cleaned out?"

"Mhm, I’ll give you the money tonight."

"I won’t be moving for a few years."

"What happened?"

"It’s hard to say, you should quit in two or three years too."

"Alright, I understand. Are you still going to the provincial capital?"

"I have to go, it’s the off-season, the province organizes us to study."

"There are many good things in the province."

"Can’t bring them back. Give it up, you have a lot of money in hand, hurry up and settle down. Live a good life."

"Haven’t met the right person."

"The dumplings are being served." Jiang Xinyu shouted from the living room, and the two who were drinking inside came out.

"These are pure meat, eat them first, hurry up, don’t let them stick."

"Young lady, what’s left for the filling?"

"Cooked meat and cabbage, it’ll be ready soon."

When Jiang Xinyu finished cooking the second pot, there were only about ten left from the first pot.

"Director Wei, Master Yang, try these cabbage-filled dumplings."

Old Yang also wasn’t shy, picked one up, and without fearing heat, put it directly into his mouth.

"Delicious, delicious, the young lady cooks well."

Jiang Xinyu also sat down, only eating one meat dumpling, and the rest were cabbage ones.

After the meal, the three drank dumpling soup, "Master Yang, you have extensive connections, I want to build a bathroom in the courtyard in spring."

"No problem, I’ll find someone for you, no need for money, you just need to provide meals."

"Master Yang, I can’t manage that! I have to go to work."

"True, okay, you don’t have to worry, just for Old Yang eating at your house for free, I’ll handle this matter for you."

"Master Yang, then what about the materials? Where should I buy them?"

"Braces and flower stands you don’t need to prepare, I have them. You just prepare rocks. Green bricks, cement, and tiles will do."

"How much will it roughly cost?"

"I’ll find someone this afternoon, let him take care of labor and materials. Ask him the price, I’m not particularly clear, this saves you from preparing yourself."

"That’s great, even if it’s more expensive, I’m willing."

The two left after finishing the soup, Jiang Xinyu didn’t go out, just stayed home making clothes. After all, being a secretary often requires going to meetings, can’t be too shabby.

At three in the afternoon, Old Yang brought a middle-aged man over.

"Young lady, tell him the size you want, let him calculate for you."

"Master, I want to build a bathroom on this piece of land, how should the drainage be arranged?"

"Just let it go directly to the vegetable plot, right?"

"But soap and stuff aren’t good for vegetables."

"There’s a cellar and a well in your yard, digging a seepage well isn’t possible. That might affect the water quality, and there’s fear of the cellar collapsing." The master said very professionally.

"Lay down two pipes, one for direct drainage outside, right? The soap water and such can go outside, and the clear water stays in the yard, you can water the vegetables." Old Yang suggested.

"Brother Yang’s suggestion works. Young lady, what do you think?"

"Alright, let’s do it that way. Master, how big do you think, and how much will it cost?"

"Three meters long, two meters wide, two meters high. Do you want windows?"

"Yes, also two double doors, for ventilation to avoid dampness. Master, don’t worry about wasting cement, line inside with it all.

Also leave space for a coal stove, so it can be used in winter."

"Okay, let me calculate."

Jiang Xinyu thought, it would be great if there were marble, but she wasn’t well-off with money, better to make do for now.

"Young lady, labor and materials together will cost you seventy. It also includes window frames and glass."

"Alright. Master, notify me ahead of time whatever time you deem suitable."

After sending off Old Yang and the master, Jiang Xinyu felt secure, she was moving step by step towards a moderately prosperous life.

Now she had a car, a house, and a job. Thinking about it made her feel splendid.

Then returned to the kang to make clothes. Just ordinary royal blue thick cotton cloth, Jiang Xinyu thought making it into an outfit shouldn’t look bad.

Having been here for over three months now, her height was still growing, probably wouldn’t be less than one meter sixty. Jiang Xinyu was already very satisfied with this height.

When the sky turned dark, Jiang Xinyu put down the clothes she was holding and went to prepare dinner.

The boss still had to come over for dinner. Just pan-fried dumplings, millet yam red date porridge.

And half a plate of peanuts, and a bowl of pickles would do.

When Wei Kaiyun came, the porridge was already cooked.

"How’s it? Is the bathroom confirmed?"

"Yes, labor and materials together seventy, I think it’s not expensive."

"Back home, building a single-story house is only two to three hundred yuan."

"This is a green brick cement tile house. How can it compare?"

The two sat down to eat, Jiang Xinyu only ate two dumplings, the rest she drank porridge. During this period of nourishing, she wasn’t as keen for meat as at the beginning.

"This porridge is good. It would taste better with sugar."

"Director Wei, do you want to add sugar?"

"Sure, the last bowl with sweet porridge."

Jiang Xinyu thought, it’s rare to see a man like him who enjoys sweet foods.

"Let’s go,

I’ll take you to find Old Yang."

Jiang Xinyu quickly tidied up the living room, then changed clothes. Happily followed behind Wei Kaiyun.

"Director Wei, I brought a flashlight."

"Quite clever this time. If you have anything you want to buy, let me know." Wei Kaiyun guessed Jiang Xinyu didn’t have much money left.
