Chapter 73 The Critical Moment Is Unreliable (Chapter 2 Continues)
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Xia Zekai received another call, from Sun Hongli of Sanmu Group.
"Hello, Sister Sun!" Xia Zekai shouted politely.
Sun Hongli was not going to let him go just like that: "Xiao Xia, what have you been busy with this month? Even if you take care of the children every day, you can also take time to call your sister. You said you are heartless, so you won't come.
The company is looking at my sister, but I am still thinking about paying you your salary."
"Ouch, it's my fault, Sister Sun, I admit my mistake, and I will go to the company to treat you to dinner another day." When Xia Zekai heard the word "salary," he said to himself, "I will forget it even if you don't mention it."
Sun Hongli didn't believe his nonsense and said to him: "Brother Xia, let's not talk about those things that disappeared. When will you have time to come to the company and collect your salary and reimbursed business trip expenses."
She said: "It's because you delayed signing for reimbursement of travel expenses, otherwise I would have called you to come and get it."
When Xia Zekai heard what she said, he couldn't help but thank him. He said: "Sister Sun, how about this? I'm going back to my hometown tomorrow. I'll be back after the holidays. Look, everyone will be there any day. I'll go and get it."
Let’s have dinner together again, okay?”
"Assuming you have a conscience, let's leave it at that!" Sun Hongli said with a smile.
Before the phone was hung up, Xia Zekai heard Sun Hongli on the other end shouting with a smile: "Brother Xia just said that he would come to the company to treat you to dinner in a few days. Are you free..."
"Dudududu"
When the call is hung up, the rest of the call cannot be heard.
"Tsk tsk, I've had good fortune recently. I'll go burn some incense sticks for the God of Wealth later." Xia Zekai was thinking about this in his mind.
Xia Zekai left at around five o'clock as usual. When he left, there were still many customers waiting in line.
"Lao Li, please take care of them first. I'll send them both back and then come back." Xia Zekai said this.
An hour later, Xia Zekai returned to the store.
The two of them were busy until nine o'clock. After he kicked Li Mumu away, he continued to work until twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
Xia Zekai knew very well in his heart that no one had it easy. Even though he was the boss, it was not the time to enjoy the blessings yet.
…
It is said that Li Mumu returned to the Ginkgo Community in Dongcheng District at 9:30 in the evening. After entering the house, he gave the 300 yuan that Xia Zekai gave him directly to his wife Huang Shuangshuang.
"Here, I'll give you the money!" Li Mumu said naturally.
He didn't think the three hundred yuan was too little to take out.
Huang Shuangshuang looked him up and down several times in surprise: "Daimu, where did this money come from?"
Li Mumu rolled her eyes at him: "Let's not talk about money for now. Is there still food? I'm starving to death."
"There is pork and cabbage stewed with vermicelli in the pot. I'll keep it for you. Please tell me clearly what happened to the money first." Huang Shuangshuang was reluctant.
Li Mumu told her softly: "Daughter-in-law, this is my salary last month!"
Huang Shuangshuang was confused and said: "Didn't you just work for that day and a half last month? Why did I give you so much money?"
"Didn't you tell me that night that your monthly salary was only 1,000?"
"Yes, but the boss said the rest was holiday money!" After saying this, Li Mumu felt comfortable all over.
Huang Shuangshuang was confused: "You have just been there for less than two days, and your boss has given you so much holiday money. Is he so generous?"
Li Mumu shook his head: "Daughter-in-law, what do you know? Is our boss's structure something ordinary people can understand?"
He said: "I am a generous person, unlike some people who are picky and instigating, and have a petty attitude."
After he finished speaking, he said: "Daughter-in-law, please serve me some food first, and I will tell you better news later."
"Hey, whoever gave you the burden dares to order me around." Huang Shuangshuang came back to her senses and stared at him.
But Li Mumu went directly to wash his face.
When we came out again, a large bowl of pork and cabbage stewed with vermicelli and two white flour buns were placed on the coffee table in the living room.
The slices of meat cover the mouth of the bowl, which is really luxurious.
"So much meat? Didn't you and Xixi eat it?" Li Mumu was confused.
Huang Shuangshuang nodded: "Eat it. Why are you worrying so much? I can still dig at your son."
She said: "You went out to parties early these past two days. I was afraid that your body wouldn't be able to bear it, so I put in more meat."
Li Mumu was choked and panicked, and he said loudly: "I'm afraid you'll dig at yourself, okay!"
"Go away!" Huang Shuang had a smile on his eyes. He was afraid that he might have done something that some people would not be able to see if they were blind.
Fortunately, although Li Mumu didn't have much ability, she knew in her heart that she was quite happy.
Li Mumu saw this, and turned his wife Huang Shuangshuang's body to look at him, and said: "Daughter-in-law, let me tell you, you can eat meat if you want in the future, and we don't have to worry about this anymore."
"You don't sound mean. What about money, do you only expect these 300 yuan?" Huang Shuangshuang gave him a look. Who can't brag, but the most important thing is to face the reality.
"Bang bang bang!"
When Huang Shuangshuang's eyes widened and he was at a loss, Li Mumu clenched his fist and punched himself three times on the chest: "Daughter-in-law, let me tell you, I have received a salary increase, starting from this month."
"How many can you send now?" Huang Shuangshuang asked subconsciously.
Li Mumu held out two fingers: "At least 2,000, but I think it's probably more than 2,000. We'll find out on the 2nd of next month."
Huang Shuangshuang was stunned. When she came to her senses, she was not happy, but a little worried: "Daimu, tell the truth, what have you done? How can there be any reason to double the salary?"
"Is your boss stupid?"
"My boss is not stupid, he is smart!"
Li Mumu told him about leaving early and coming back late, focusing on his boss's recognition of him. After listening to this, Huang Shuangshuang couldn't explain how he felt.
More than two thousand?
For the current income of workers in Qicheng, which is around 1,500, this is more than 30% more, which is quite a lot.
But Huang Shuangshuang is not particularly happy. This is the result of her husband's hard work.
"Daimu, do your best, we can't let your boss see the wrong person." She is also a practical person. Although she is worried about her husband working such long hours, she is still very grateful to Xia Zekai for this person.
…
At around 7:30 in the morning on the 3rd, Xia Zekai drove out of the community.
First meet up with the eldest and second brothers, then get on the highway and leave together.
On the way, Luo Xiyun asked him: "Zekai, have you called Zejiang? Can he come back?"
"(⊙o⊙)..." Xia Zekai almost choked.
The little brat was so angry yesterday that Xia Zekai forgot to tell his brother about going back.
Xia Zekai said: "Use my mobile phone to dial his number, tell him that we are on the expressway, and ask him to go to the Jicheng Expressway service area and wait."
After Luo Xiyun heard what he said, she fainted. How could her husband do such an unreliable thing at the critical moment?
