Qiao Qiao was riding a tricycle very well, and she was full of enthusiasm and energy even before she had breakfast.
The tricycle was buzzing on the mountain. In the carriage, Chen Xi, who was only carrying a backpack, was in a particularly complicated mood.
Because the Qiaoqiao driving in front of me looks like...
He was a little hesitant. The other person spoke like a child, but his logic and actions were quick and mature, which made him a little unsure for a moment.
Look at Chen Chi again. He was looking around curiously. At this moment, he saw Chen Xi looking over and grinning: "Brother, I'm hungry."
Just as Chen Xi was about to speak, he heard Qiao Qiao in front shout loudly: "We can eat in a moment!"
“Master Jiang’s cooking on our mountain is super, super, super delicious!”
“This morning I heard about making fried shredded pork with radish and braised chicken with potatoes! It must be delicious too!”
When he spoke, he was extremely confident and contagious. At the very least, Chen Chi had opened his mouth wide and saliva was looming.
Only Chen Xi was a little confused: "Eat this in the morning?"
"Yes!" Qiao Qiao nodded heavily: "Recently, the work we all do is physical work, which is very tiring, so Master Jiang said that three meals a day should be hard vegetables - if it is not so tiring, it would be noodles, porridge, and steamed bun rolls in the morning.
Pancakes and buns..."
"Brother, what do you like to eat?"
"Do you like spicy food? The chili meat buns made by Master Jiang are super delicious. They are only a little bit spicy and when you take a bite, the gravy and the skin of the buns are mixed together. They are so soft and elastic!"
“The braised chicken with potatoes is also delicious.”
"The potatoes were cooked to perfection in the chicken soup and melted in one sip. The chicken was so tender, the drumsticks were delicious, the wings were delicious, and the chicken nuggets were delicious too!"
"Soak the tortillas in chicken soup... Wow! I want to eat them too!"
Qiao Qiao secretly made up his mind: He would have a bowl on the mountain before going back!
After hearing such a detailed description, who has not eaten enough to endure the suffering?
Chen Xi could still hold back, but Chen Chi had already clung to the railing tightly, his eyes seemed to be filled with "rice rice rice rice rice meat meat meat meat..."
He could only hold down his hungry brother, fearing that he would jump out boldly.
After all, the colorful macaron cart in front of me is indeed quite small.
However, although Da Duo was small, he was very powerful. After a while, Qiao Qiao took them to the mountain.
The factory has not yet started construction and is currently blocked by Chen Yuan and others with a fence, but the cafeteria is bustling with activity.
There was a pile of farm tools at the door. People who had eaten and drank well came out chatting and talking. When they saw Qiao Qiao leading two strangers, they even said hello:
"Qiaoqiao, are you recruiting new people?"
Qiaoqiao also nodded heavily and answered very seriously: "Yes! My sister said that she would take them to dinner first."
"Eat, eat."
The uncle who spoke waved his hand: "You should eat more corn tortillas soaked in chicken soup, that one is delicious."
Another aunt burst out laughing: "Qiao Qiao, go back and tell your mother that we are all from the countryside, so why are you so embarrassed to have such a good breakfast? It's so early in the morning, there's no need..."
"I want it!"
Qiao Qiao's eyebrows were crooked: "Aunt, you are also very tired from work. Master Jiang said that you must eat well to have strength. You can eat two more bowls and then plant some crops..."
As soon as he said this, everyone around him burst out laughing.
"Good boy, are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? Eat more and work more, right?"
Qiao Qiao burst into laughter, and Chen Xi looked at him intently, without moving his eyes at this moment. When Qiao Qiao finished speaking, he looked at Chen Chi again, and the uncertainty in his heart became stronger.
At this moment, he paused and took out his mobile phone to send a message to Chen Yuan——
"Chen Xi!" someone called him from the crowd.
When Chen Xi came back to his senses, he saw Chen Yuan striding out of a small building next to him.
His hair is still short, but his energy is particularly high. His whole person looks very sunny, and even his stride is so firm and generous...
He looked nothing like the Chen Yuan he had seen in the hospital.
He couldn't help but move his eyes downwards, and saw that Chen Yuan was wearing trousers and sneakers. He couldn't see anything at the moment, so he just slapped him hard:
"Why did you come so fast? I just sent you a message yesterday, and I thought you would make a decision tomorrow and the day after tomorrow at the latest - why did you arrive so quickly? You haven't contacted me yet?"
Chen Xi couldn't help but smile, too embarrassed to say that he took Chen Chi away from his hometown on impulse.
At this moment, he just looked at the lively environment around him, and then asked: "That's my brother Chen Chi, can he be like this... okay here?"
Chen Yuan didn't guarantee it 100%. He just glanced at Chen Chi and patted his arm. He felt that it wasn't soft underneath, so he became happy.
"With this physique, it would be a pity not to work!"
Then he answered Chen Xi's question: "This depends on Boss Song's opinion."
"But even if Chen Chi is not selected, if you want to work here, it would be better to find someone to rent a house for him to stay there than at home."
"Brother Chen Yuan!" Qiao Qiao came over at this moment and hummed:
"Don't talk. My sister said I'll be in charge of work and wages - do you think the tortillas in the morning taste good?"
Chen Yuan laughed, and there was a cheerful smile on his face that Chen Xi had not seen for a long time.
"It's delicious. You can eat a few more - okay, I'll leave this introduction to you, Qiao Qiao. But the job of the big brother next to you has to wait until your sister confirms it."
Qiao Qiao shook her head: "My sister said that I can't tell if I look at it. I will take them to the river beach to do some work after they have eaten."
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Chen Chi secretly and asked in a low voice: "Are you the same as me? If I can do it, he should be able to do it too."
Chen Xi was startled and looked at Qiao Qiao again.
Chen Yuan laughed again: "I think it can be done - Qiao Qiao, I'll leave it to you. You can do the interview in person - I'll serve you some chicken soup? How many cakes do you want?"
He led the three of them to the cafeteria, greeted Master Jiang familiarly, and then took out the plates from the disinfection cabinet and divided each of them into one:
"Chen Xi, Chen Chi, serve what you want to eat, don't waste it!"
Chen Xi looked at Chen Chi and saw that his brother was already staring at the pot of potato braised chicken and couldn't move his eyes away.
…
The food here is really solid!
Chen Xi, who was holding a large spoon to serve food to his brother, couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the meat and a few sporadic potatoes in the spoon.
However, Chen Yuan looked over and laughed: "It's not like the whole pot is full of meat. It's probably because the potatoes are so delicious that they picked them all."
"Qiaoqiao, do you want chicken or potatoes?"
Qiaoqiao raised her finger: "I want half and half."
"Okay!" Chen Yuan quickly served him a meal. Now he looked at Chen Chi's plate and couldn't help but be startled: "Chen Xi, does your brother eat so little?"
Chen Xi was also stunned when he saw it.
There were only a few potatoes and two pieces of meat on Chen Chi's dinner plate.
He couldn't help but look at Chen Chi.
"Didn't you say you were hungry? You only ate so much."
Chen Chi's good appetite has never faded.
But he saw that the other party hesitated for a moment, then looked around and then whispered: "But if I eat too much meat, my mother will beat me."
At this moment, both Chen Xi and Chen Yuan were speechless.
Only Qiaoqiao sighed and said seriously: "You are stupid! Why don't you run away? And your mother is not here, how can she beat you?"
Then he held the dinner plate and said in despair:
"My mother was different. She wouldn't let me run away and would beat me with tree sticks."
It happened that an uncle next to me had just finished his meal, and he couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this:
"Qiaoqiao, you are talking nonsense. I will file a complaint with your mother later! When you were disobedient when you were a child, she would slap you twice with a stick from a tree. Your sister also suffered it...Have you ever been slapped when you grew up?"
Qiao Qiao groaned: "I am so obedient and my sister praises me every day. How could I be naughty when I was a child?"
"Mom must want to hit me."
This time, even Chen Yuan laughed.
On the other hand, Chen Chi stood there holding a dinner plate, looking at Qiao Qiao with bright eyes, full of admiration.
"You are so awesome!"
"Of course!" Qiao Qiao's chest puffed up, and she picked up a spoon and filled him with a spoon full of meat.
"Here, I'll serve it to you! As long as you don't waste it, no one will hit you."
After saying that, he clenched his fists again: "But if you waste it, I will hit you. It will hurt me very much."
Chen Chi also smiled innocently: "Then I won't hit you. If I hit someone, it would be very painful. My brother said he wouldn't let me hit you."
Qiaoqiao sighed: "Sister said so too..."
The two younger brothers gathered together and began to murmur, while Chen Xi looked at Chen Yuan and then at Qiao Qiao: "He..."
Chen Yuan paused, then nodded: "Well, it's almost the same as Chen Chi, but my family teaches me very well."
"It's because of him that I thought of introducing you here to give it a try."
He said it in a low-key manner, but Chen Xi was shocked and said: "How can he teach so well? Did he go to some tutoring institution? Or what? I really didn't notice it at first."
Chen Yuan shook his head: "Stop talking about you, I didn't even notice it at first."
"He even seems very mature when he is serious. However, their family loves their children and they also put a lot of thought into raising Qiao Qiao."
"Now I have a tutor at home to follow me."
Chen Xi calmed down and breathed a long sigh of relief: "That's true, most people can't provide this condition."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Qiao Qiao had already turned around: "Are you talking about me again? I have become very smart now!"
Chen Chi nodded repeatedly, obviously acknowledging Qiao Qiao.
"Brother Chen Chi is not as smart as me now. If he wants to be like me, he has to study hard."
No one would hate such an innocent child, even if he has the height and appearance of an adult.
Chen Xi then nodded: "Okay. When I make money, I will try to see if there are any teachers who can teach me."
"You don't have to make a lot of money."
Qiao Qiao wondered: "Teacher Xin teaches online courses. You can buy all the courses for one dollar...but you have to do your homework seriously."
Chen Xi was a little confused and a little unbelievable:
"Teacher Xin is..."
Chen Yuan patted his shoulder in surprise: "I'll ask for you later! Teacher Xin is Qiao's tutor. Although she is young, she teaches very well."
…
The three of them took their plates and found a table to sit down at. Everyone in the village who was supposed to be working had already set off, and now there were only a few people left in the canteen.
Qiaoqiao soaked the cornmeal pancake in chicken soup, waited for a while, then pinched it out, and then bit it off in one bite!
Then he shook his head and was very satisfied: "It smells so good! Although it's not as delicious as ours... but it's still delicious."
"That's true."
Chen Yuan had already eaten, and was sitting there looking at him. Thinking of the unforgettable breakfast he had that morning, if he hadn't had strong self-control, his mouth would be watering.
But we should be content with the food we have now.
He shook his head and brought his attention back:
"By the way, Qiaoqiao, while you are eating, you can talk to them about salary and work content first."
"OK!"
Qiao Qiao put down the cake and started to break it with her fingers.
"I remember it very well - first of all, let's talk about salary. The salary includes food and accommodation, five insurances and one housing fund. I got almost 4,000 yuan."
4000?
Chen Yuan made some calculations: If food and accommodation are included, this salary is quite a lot. Although he has a deposit after returning, the brothers are still young and do not plan to use it more.
Qiao Qiao pointed out a second finger: "Then it's working time - there is no working time. I just live in the ranch. If there is work, I can work, and if there is no work, I can rest."
"But if something happens at night, you have to get up and work at night."
"Work is just a lot of chores, with a lot of work content."
Chen Xi heard this from Chen Yuan, and Qiao Qiao said it a lot, but in fact it can be divided into broad categories: working with old employees on the ranch to take care of pigs, cattle and sheep, shoveling manure and fermenting manure, taking care of pasture, etc...
Although not having exact working hours is a bit unfree, it doesn't sound very intense.
He nodded, ready to finish listening.
However, Qiaoqiao had already taken back his hand: "No!"
No more?
Chen Xi was stunned and looked at Chen Chi again: "Then he..."
Qiao Qiao glanced at him: "I just said, you have to see Brother Chen Chi work to know if it's okay. We can't say it's okay right now."
"I can!" Chen Chi had already puffed up his chest: "I have done a lot of work, I am very good at work, and I am strong enough not to worry about getting tired!"
"but……"
He hesitated: "Can I eat enough? How long will it take before I can eat meat?"
"The uncle who carried the garbage before said that we would lose money and it would be difficult to feed us, so we could only eat chicken drumsticks once a month."
Qiaoqiao instantly became proud: "Then it must be that your uncle doesn't know how to make money, but my sister is different, she is super good at it! We have meat every day!"
"Even if you don't have enough meat to eat, if you have a salary of 4,000, you can still buy it yourself!"
Chen Chi had no idea about a salary of 4,000 yuan. Instead, he looked forward to having meat every day——
"Is that much?" He looked down at the pile of broken bones on the dinner plate.
"So many!" Qiao Qiao nodded heavily.
Chen Chi immediately took a big mouthful of rice and said, "Then I can definitely do it!"
Chen Xi was stunned.
Not because of the 4,000 salary given, nor because of the meat.
But because it was the first time he had seen Chen Chi who was so proactive and talked so much.
