The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Qi Desheng wasn't a stingy person, but he was probably a little jealous because his wife had specially prepared it for Yang Dalin.

Yang Dalin was particularly pleased to see this scene.

Yang Dalin took it and wanted to try it right away.

Qi Desheng said, "I'm at work, what's the point of trying this out? We'll talk about it after get off work. Let's get back to work."

Yang Dalin then took the shoes and went to the car.

Old Tian also prepared something for Yang Dalin: a scarf.

It was also said that it was prepared by her sister-in-law.

See, the rabbit meat wasn't given away for free.

Both of my sisters-in-law are nice; I'll send them again next time.

There's a lot to do today. With the year-end approaching, there's a lot to do. Yang Dalin packed up his things and quickly got to work.

Yang Dalin didn't eat lunch in the canteen. He went out to find Ma San to eat with, and he also brought him a few pairs of gloves. The freight station would send them out regularly, or he could exchange his old ones for gloves.

Yang asked Ma San how his morning went, and Ma San happily held up a one-yuan coin and told Yang Dalin, "Brother, I earned one yuan this morning."

Yang Dalin told him to keep it safe, keep up the good work, and keep trying.

He also introduced some plainclothes officers in the square to Ma San.

Tell those plainclothes officers to keep an eye on my underling, so he doesn't get bullied.

Then he went back to the station to work.

The afternoon passed by as usual.

When I was leaving get off work in the afternoon, I suddenly received a notification that Brother Tian said he would be going to Tianjin tomorrow and that I should be prepared.

It might take one night to get back, even though these two places are only a little over an hour's drive apart in later generations.

The speed of these trucks now is incomparable to the speed of highways in later generations.

Moreover, the road is not particularly easy to travel, so a one-way trip may take three or four hours, plus unloading, eating, and bringing back some other goods.

By the time everything was packed, it would probably be almost dark. We went to Tianjin, but the company wouldn't let us bring back any good food.

So staying there for one night is a must. What's plentiful in Tianjin these days?

It's not Goubuli steamed buns, it's seafood.

So Yang Dalin thought he must bring back more.

Not only can they eat it themselves, but they can also ask Uncle Duo to take care of some of it.

If there's space but we don't use it, isn't that a waste?

You have capital and transportation, so why not prepare more capital for your future?

Why did I become a driver? It's for this reason.

Moreover, one's own picnic plan on the road can also be implemented.

Tian Xueyi told him that they would meet at the station at 8:00 a.m. the next morning to load the train, and depart promptly at 9:00 a.m. The plan was to stay overnight in Tianjin and return the next day.

Tell Yang Dalin to prepare and then explain things to his family.

Yang Dalin said he understood.

After get off work in the afternoon, I went home with Ma San. On the way, Ma San was much more cheerful.

I earned 2.8 yuan a day, which is not bad. I can earn 84 yuan a month.

This kid is dreaming about living a happy life in the future.

Yang Dalin told him: "First, there's no guarantee of good work every day. Second, if you keep pretending to be poor, people will start asking you for money if they find out you can earn so much!"

"And you didn't spend any money on food today? If you really take the food cost out, how could you have missed out on so much in a day?"

Upon hearing this, Ma San quickly replied, "I understand, brother. I'll be careful. I'll give you the money for today's meal."

I'd be happy even if I only got one yuan a day.

If anyone asks, just say you earned eighty cents today.

This kid worked all day without complaining of being tired, and he was in great spirits. I don't know if it was because he made money or because of the effects of his constitution-enhancing pills.

Yang Dalin waved his hand and said, "Alright, I'm not asking you to pay for your meal. I'm just telling you these things. Also, I'm going to Tianjin by car tomorrow and won't be back until the day after tomorrow."

I won't be able to treat you to dinner tomorrow.

But I can probably bring you some fish when I get back.

When Ma San heard that Yang Dalin was going on a business trip and wanted to bring him fish, he quickly refused: "Brother, you can bring it for your aunt and the others, don't worry about me."

Also, please be careful. Save the money for now, and I'll pay you back when I've saved enough.

Yang Dalin lightly kicked his car and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Forgot about the goldfish? Don't mention that little bit of money to me. I earn more than you."

That's a lot of money. Even if we're brothers, we should keep clear accounts.

Forget about the small amount.

Don't be stingy with your food. Only by taking good care of your health can you earn more money in the future. If you don't eat properly now, even if I wanted to help you earn more money later, I wouldn't be able to.

Ma San's car lurched slightly. Knowing that Yang Dalin had deliberately tried to kick him, he wasn't angry. He turned around and said, "I know, brother."

Then he thought to himself, "I'll write this down in a little notebook when I get back. I can never repay Brother Dalin's kindness. I'll make more money in the future and then pay him back."

Yang Dalin also told him, "Be careful with your temper when you're working. You're bound to encounter some people who say unpleasant things. Don't get angry with them."

Ma San said he understood and would be careful.

When he got home, Ma San still drove the car to Grandpa Qi's place, because Grandpa Qi's house had a small yard where it was convenient to park.

It's quite troublesome to get the tricycle into Ma San's backyard.

During dinner that evening, Yang Dalin told Aunt Qi that he would be going on a business trip the next day and wouldn't be back until the day after tomorrow.

Qi Xiaoning quickly asked, "Brother, I heard that the steamed buns in Tianjin are delicious, and so are the fish."

Yang Dalin patted her little head: "I know, I won't forget, there's also the twisted dough sticks."

"If there's a chance, I'll bring them for you; if not, then there's nothing I can do."

Qi Yulan tapped Qi Xiaoning with her chopsticks: "Your brother Dalin is there to work, not to feed you. Don't bother him."

After dinner, Yan Hua prepared some things for Da Linzi.

Pack a change of clothes, fill your water bottle with water, and I'll steam some buns for you tomorrow morning. Also, pack a jar of vegetables.

Also, prepare thermal underwear, shoes, scarves, and the like.

Qi Yanhua, holding her bowl and eating her meal, replied, "Okay, Mom, I'll prepare it after I finish eating."

Yang Dalin quickly said, "Auntie, you don't need to prepare those things. I'll just stay one night and come back the day after tomorrow."

Besides, if you bring steamed buns, they'll freeze solid on the way.

Don't bother getting up early to steam buns.

We'll eat at restaurants along the way; we have a travel allowance. If all else fails, I'll buy some food at a restaurant near the train station tomorrow morning.

Qi Yulan said, "Dalinzi, it's always good to be prepared when you're traveling."

What if you arrive at a restaurant too late, or what if it snows and your clothes and shoes get wet while unloading and you need to change?

So bring it along, it's better to not need it than not bring it at all.

Never mind, I'll prepare it for you tomorrow morning.

Just get some rest early tonight.

Yang Dalin actually knew all of this; he had already prepared everything in his spatial dimension.

He had this habit in his past life: even if he went out for a day and didn't come back, he would bring some spares with him.

This habit is especially good after you own a car.

If it rains and your clothes get wet, you'll need something to change into.

He had prepared a lot of food in the space, and many of the steamed buns were still warm when they were taken out.

I just didn't want to trouble Aunt Qi and the others to get up early to prepare for me.

I haven't shown Aunt Qi the leather shoes and scarf I got today yet.

We'll have to wait until after we finish eating to talk about it.

The large backpack that Yang Dalin asked Aunt Qi to prepare last time is also ready.

It's perfect timing to use it now.
