Chapter 339 Paying wages!
Chapter 339 Paying wages!
At around nine o'clock the next morning, Zhang Guoping walked into Jia Dongming's office with a pay slip and said to him with a smile, "Director! This is your pay slip for this month. Please check if there are any mistakes and then sign it."
After hearing what Zhang Guoping said, Jia Dongming glanced at the pay slip Zhang Guoping placed in front of him. After confirming that the numbers on it were correct, he picked up a pen and signed his name on the pay slip. He smiled and thanked Zhang Guoping, "Guoping! If you hadn't sent me the pay slip, I would have almost forgotten that I had already worked for a month."
Zhang Guoping heard what Jia Dongming said and said to him with a smile: "Director! Actually, I also forgot to collect my salary the first month I came to work. Later, my comrades in the team reminded me, and then I went to the factory's finance department to collect my first month's salary."
When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Guoping's words, he thought of Qian Chaoyang's aftermath and changed the subject directly, asking Zhang Guoping, "Guoping! Have you handled all the affairs surrounding Qian Chaoyang?"
When Zhang Guoping heard Jia Dongming asking about Qian Chaoyang's funeral, he thought of what he learned from Qian Chaoyang's family when he gave the pension to Qian Chaoyang's wife yesterday, and reported to Jia Dongming: "Director! Qian Chaoyang's eldest brother said that according to the custom in their hometown, the body needs to be kept at home for three days, so they will send Qian Chaoyang's body to the cemetery for burial after three days."
After hearing what Zhang Guoping said, Jia Dongming nodded subconsciously and said to Zhang Guoping seriously, "Guoping! On the day of Comrade Chaoyang's burial, please remember to remind me so that we can go and see him off for the last time."
Zhang Guoping nodded immediately after hearing Jia Dongming's explanation and replied respectfully, "Yes! Director! I understand."
Zhang Guoping said this, and then thought of another purpose for coming to see Jia Dongming, and then reported to Jia Dongming: "Director! The escort team has purchased a total of 2,300 kilograms of pork, 10 sheep, and 500 kilograms of beef for Keli. What do you think we should do with these meats?"
When Jia Dongming heard Zhang Guoping asking about the arrangement of the meat, he pondered for a moment, and then instructed Zhang Guoping: "Guoping! From the meat purchased this time, each comrade in our department can buy three pounds at the original price, and the rest will be stored in the warehouse for the comrades to eat slowly."
Zhang Guoping nodded immediately after hearing Jia Dongming's instructions, and replied respectfully, "Director! I understand. I will arrange this matter now."
Around five o'clock in the evening, Jia Dongming first went to the canteen to pick up the pork he had purchased, and then rode his bicycle towards Tongluoguxiang.
Soon Jia Dongming returned to the courtyard. When the door god Yan Bugui saw the pork belly hanging on the handlebars of a bicycle, his eyes suddenly lit up and he instinctively wanted to step forward to take advantage of it. Until he saw the owner of the bicycle, the smile on his face froze there instantly, and then he turned and walked towards Yan's house.
Jia Dongming naturally saw Yan Bugui's reaction. Thinking of Yan Bugui's character of even tasting the saltiness of the manure truck passing by, Jia Dongming shook his head in disdain and pushed his bicycle towards the yard.
"Dongming! Where did you get such a big piece of pork belly?" Jia Dongming had just walked into the central courtyard. Jia Zhang, who was sitting in the courtyard chatting, saw the pork belly hanging on the handlebar of Jia Dongming's bicycle. She suddenly felt her eyes light up and asked Jia Dongming happily.
When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's question, he smiled and introduced to her, "Mom! Our security department helped the factory to escort the goods to the Northeast, and we also bought a batch of meat from the Northeast. Everyone in the department can buy three pounds at the original price, so I bought three pounds."
When Jia Zhang heard what Jia Dongming said, she immediately reached out and took the pork belly from Jia Dongming, then shook it in front of everyone's envious eyes and said in a somewhat Versailles way, "Dongming! Our Dongming is really capable. It hasn't been long since I came back, and I'm a little tired of eating meat."
Seeing Jia Zhang being so arrogant in front of the neighbors, Jia Dongming shook his head helplessly. In order to avoid public outrage, Jia Dongming immediately shouted to Jia Zhang: "Mom! I got my salary today."
Jia Zhang, who was showing off to her neighbors, heard Jia Dongming say that he had received his salary, and immediately remembered what Jia Dongming had promised her. She hurriedly followed Jia Dongming and walked towards the courtyard. "Huai Ru! Huai Ru! Come out quickly." Jia Zhang walked into the main room carrying the pork belly and immediately shouted to Qin Huai Ru who was cooking in the kitchen.
Qin Huairu heard Jia Zhang's call and immediately came out of the kitchen. She saw the pork belly in Jia Zhang's hand and asked, "Mom! What are you calling me for?"
When Jia Zhang heard Qin Huairu's question, she immediately handed the pork belly to Qin Huairu and said to her, "Huairu! This is the meat Dongming brought back. Cut a pound of it and cook a bowl of braised pork to go with Dongming's wine tonight."
"Huai Ru! Wait a moment." Qin Huai Ru heard Jia Zhang's instructions, reached out to take the pork belly handed to her by Jia Zhang, and was about to enter the kitchen when she was suddenly stopped by Jia Dongming.
Qin Huairu subconsciously stopped when she heard Jia Dongming's shout and asked him curiously, "Brother Dongming! Do you have anything else to tell me?"
When Jia Dongming heard Qin Huairu's question, he reached out and took out the envelope of money from his briefcase. Then he took the money out of the envelope and handed a big black ten to Jia Zhangshi. He smiled and said to her, "Mom! This is the retirement money I promised to give you! You must keep it well!"
When Jia Zhang heard the large stack of money in Jia Dongming's hand, her eyes suddenly lit up. When she heard what Jia Dongming said and saw the money that Jia Dongming handed over, she quickly reached out to take the money and said happily: "Dongming! Mom will save this money for you and leave it for my grandchildren in the future."
After hearing what Jia Zhang said, Jia Dongming did not take Jia Zhang's promise to heart. He then took out three big black tens and handed them to Qin Huairu who was still distracted. He said to her, "Huairu! This is the household allowance for the next month. Please keep it well."
When Qin Huairu heard what Jia Dongming said and saw the money that Jia Dongming handed over, she remembered that when Jia Dongxu was still alive, every time Jia Dongxu came back with his salary, he would never take the initiative to give her household expenses. Instead, it was only under Jia Zhang's urging that Jia Dongxu reluctantly took out the money, and the money he actually gave her to run the household was only fifteen yuan.
Ever since Jia Dongming came back, he never asked her to hand over her salary, and the rice, flour, grain and oil for the family were all brought back by Jia Dongming. Now Jia Dongming also gave her another 30 yuan for household expenses, which made Qin Huairu couldn't help but think of the scene when Jia Dongxu was still there.
Seeing that Qin Huairu was still not reaching out to take the money, Jia Dongming realized that Qin Huairu was distracted. He then stuffed the money into Qin Huairu's arms and said to her, "Huairu! Take the money back first. Qiuyue's sister is coming to visit us tonight. In addition to making braised pork, you can also stir-fry cabbage and meat."
Qin Huairu finally came to her senses after hearing Jia Dongming's reminder and feeling the money that Jia Dongming stuffed into her arms. Realizing that she had lost control of herself, she quickly adjusted her mood and immediately replied, "Brother Dongming! I understand."
Jia Zhang, who was standing by, saw Jia Dongming giving Qin Huairu thirty yuan for household expenses. She immediately showed dissatisfaction on her face and complained to Jia Dongming, "Dongming! Now all the rice, flour, grain and oil in the house are brought back by you. After deducting these things, our family doesn't have much to spend. Why do you give Qin Huairu so much money for no reason?"
When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's complaints, he naturally understood Jia Zhang's thoughts very well, so he persuaded her, "Mom! I gave Huairu this money because I hope our family can eat better. Do you still want to eat steamed bread all day like in the past?"
