Chapter 2234
Should we take that child?
Yan Jiekuang arrived at his door and pushed it open to go inside.
But he couldn't help but frown, cover his mouth and nose, and quickly retreated.
Nothing else, Yan Bugui is at home taking a dump.
In broad daylight, with only a toilet in the room, Yan Bugui sat in the corner of the main room, his face flushed red.
The cramped space, with the door closed, made the smell unimaginable.
Just as Yan Jiekuang was rushing in and out, the father and son exchanged glances and both saw the word 'astonishment' in each other's eyes.
"Dad, why are you acting like this in broad daylight?"
"Jie Kuang? Hurry up and close the door."
The father and son said something at roughly the same time.
Yan Bugui was also surprised.
He's not in good health, so it must be inconvenient for him to go to the toilet outside.
Now that the second son's family isn't coming back here, they never even considered the possibility of the smell being overpowering.
Use the restroom in the main room, and once you're done, just open the door to let in some fresh air.
On the contrary, if they relieve themselves in their bedroom, the smell really won't go away.
However, when he needed to relieve himself, Yang Ruihua helped him take off his pants, presumably while he was waiting outside the door.
I guess they went to someone's house to chat.
This led to the accidental encounter between father and son...
"Huff... Huff..." Yan Jiekuang contracted this habit the moment he saw Yan Bugui defecating.
He always felt that there was still a smell in the house.
Yan Bugui sat down awkwardly to the side, unable to utter many of the questions he had wanted to ask, given Yan Jiekuang's reaction.
"Alright, alright, you're a grown man, why is your throat so shallow?"
"When you were little, even when you were eating and defecating in the toilet, we never complained about you." Yang Ruihua was the one who broke the deadlock; she had just gone to empty the toilet that Yan Bugui had used.
"Third brother, are you going home to rest?"
"Or are they not doing it over there anymore?" With Yang Ruihua interrupting, Yan Bugui finally returned to normal and asked the question that was on his mind.
"well···
I'm not doing it anymore.
Dad, I was doing quite well over there.
The boss in Hong Kong thought I was highly educated, so he specially put me in a management position, with a monthly salary of nearly two hundred dollars.
As a result, he was sabotaged by a villain. ..."Speaking of this, Yan Jiekuang couldn't help but sigh.
He did not say Liu Guangqi's name, but instead used a small person to represent him.
As for the salary, he wasn't lying.
There is a shortage of cultured people now. When he first joined the factory, the warehouse manager was promoted to a regular employee and had 130 or 140 employees.
The Ho Group also emphasizes standardization in its employment practices.
So the overtime pay is quite substantial. Even if it's not two hundred a month, it's still around one hundred and seventy or eighty.
For Yan Jiekuang, this was the only achievement he could be proud of.
This was because they took advantage of Yan Bugui and his colleagues' lack of knowledge. In fact, the ordinary workers in the factory, including overtime pay, earned around 140 or 150 yuan.
Without this salary, who would be willing to leave their family and children behind, travel thousands of miles, and work in a completely unfamiliar place?
In the early years of reform and opening up, the special economic zones attracted talent from all over the country with their high salaries and abundant development opportunities.
But a salary of nearly two hundred yuan is equivalent to the income of Gou Dan from the backyard in Beijing these days.
A section-level cadre like him can only earn a little over a hundred yuan a month.
"Which beastly bastard ruined your job?..." Yan Bugui couldn't help but curse when he heard that his son's good job had been ruined.
As for the dignity and civility expected of a teacher, they're better off without that high income!
Yan Jiekuang patiently explained it to the elderly couple again.
Of course, in his words, he would portray himself as completely innocent and the person who caused the trouble as utterly despicable. According to Yan Jiekuang, he had a free-love relationship with a girl, and they were mutually attracted to each other.
Then someone interfered inside.
He was so angry that he confronted the man, only to be falsely accused of hitting him.
Ultimately, people's mouths are just words; they can say whatever they want.
The family of three complained.
After venting, we still have to face reality.
"Father, is anyone still investigating my matter?" Yan Jiekuang finally asked the question that concerned him most.
Upon hearing this, Yan Bugui said seriously, "At first, some people investigated and came to your house to check on you several times, but later your father found some acquaintances and spent a little over a thousand yuan..."
They smoothed things over.
Third brother, be more reliable in the future, and don't take such risks again.
As Yan Bugui spoke slowly and deliberately, he kept glancing at Yan Jiekuang.
It's obvious that Yan Bugui lied about this.
When has he ever been so generous as to spend nearly a thousand yuan to settle things for Yan Jiekuang?
After a moment's thought, Yan Jiekuang understood his father's plan.
To put it bluntly, Yan Bugui wasn't trying to curry favor with him; he was trying to settle accounts.
I'm afraid he'll ask for the 500 yuan he sent back to his wife and children.
Yan Jiekuang did not pursue this matter further.
The fact that the matter has been resolved is the biggest benefit for him.
Other things can be dealt with later.
Furthermore, he is now back home, although he has a little over two thousand yuan in his pocket.
But whatever he does, how he will live in the future, he will have to rely on Yan Bugui to give him some advice.
Now is not the time to offend Yan Bugui.
"Father, what's wrong with your health?...
"Why aren't my second brother and the others at home taking care of you?" Yan Jiekuang paused, then asked the old man again.
Yan Jiecheng naturally informed him of the return of his second son's family by writing a letter.
Not only did they inform him that his second son's family had returned, but they also subtly mentioned how the old couple had neglected his wife and children when he left.
Yan Jiecheng's letter was mostly about boasting, recounting how much money he and his wife had spent to help Zhang Chunhua become self-reliant.
Yan Jiecheng doesn't expect his third son to repay the money, but someone should know what he and his wife have sacrificed for the family.
So Yan Bugui was spouting all sorts of nonsense, but Yan Jiekuang knew exactly what was going on.
"I just can't use my hands and feet properly, it's not like I'm lying down and can't move."
What do you need to take care of?
"If you brothers can live your own lives well and don't cause your mother and me any worry, we'll be thanking our lucky stars." Yan Bugui continued to play his high-minded game.
He almost believed what he said himself.
"Third brother, are you going to go find that Zhang guy and get Xuewen back?" Yang Ruihua interjected from the side.
"...Who will take care of you if you come back?" Yan Jiekuang was stunned for a moment, but then asked a question in return.
After he finished speaking, he stared intently at his parents, but the two elderly people looked away.
It's not that they don't want their grandson, but taking care of a little baby is such a huge hassle.
It's fine for the elderly couple to help out occasionally, but it's also acceptable for them to spend all day taking care of the little one.
However, Yan Jiekuang should at least give them some compensation, right? (End of Chapter)
