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

Yang Dalin left, unaware that Qi Desheng was getting a promotion. If he had known, he would definitely have consulted with his mentor about how to extort money from him.

Yang Dalin found the driver, Tian Xueyi.

Tian Xueyi asked him what was wrong, and Yang Dalin told him about his pay raise.

While happy for him, Tian Xueyi exclaimed, "Good lad, sixteen years old, earning nearly a hundred yuan a month, that's impressive. In another year or two, you'll probably surpass me."

"Work hard, and when your master gets old and retires, he'll wait at home every day for you to bring me good wine."

Yang Dalin readily agreed, "Of course, don't worry, Brother Tian."

When you retire, I'll take care of all your food and drink.

But you're still a long way off; you'll have to wait more than twenty years.

Am I overthinking this?

"Get lost, you brat."

By the way, you said the two leaders were still there when you left, right?

Yang Dalin nodded: "Yes, it seems we need to talk to Brother Sheng alone."

Tian Xueyi slapped his forehead: "I reckon the guy surnamed Qi will get a promotion because of you."

Damn it, I need to find a way to squeeze some money out of you tonight.

Yang Dalin asked, "Really? Brother Tian, ​​are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Tian Xueyi said confidently, "Don't worry, absolutely. He's been in charge of the work for so long. The top leader lives in a sanatorium year-round, but he's always been in charge."

You've made several great contributions, which has certainly boosted his reputation. He'll definitely be promoted to a permanent position this time.

"Take my advice, I'll help you figure out a way to make a good quick buck tonight, and we'll split it evenly."

Yang Dalin smiled sinisterly: "This is possible, and it must be possible."

……

……

Qi Desheng, who was still in his office, heard this good news from two colleagues in the human resources department.

He will be spoken to by a higher-ranking leader later.

He will soon be promoted to the rank of director-level official and become the head of the freight station.

While Qi Desheng was excited and happy, he suddenly shivered.

Damn it, did Tian Xueyi and his apprentice scold me again?

definitely.

Those two bastards never want me to have a good life.

Once I get promoted, I'll have to find a way to deal with those two.

If all else fails, separate those two bastards. If that doesn't work, let Tian Xueyi take on a new apprentice.

Yang Dalin should cooperate with someone else; otherwise, if those two are together every day, he'll lose at least a few years of his life.

At lunchtime, Yang Dalin and Tian Xueyi each got a meal and went to Qi Desheng's office.

Sure enough, the couple was giving each other special treatment again.

Gong Xuemei seemed to know about Qi Desheng's upcoming promotion, as she was all smiles.

Upon seeing the two men enter, Qi Desheng quickly covered a lunchbox and said unfriendly, "What are you two doing here again?"

Tian Xueyi plopped down on the sofa, forcibly moved Qi Desheng's hand away, picked up a piece of mutton with his chopsticks and said, "We came to congratulate you, but why won't you even give us a box of mutton?"

"Did Dalinzi send you this mutton?"

Gong Xuemei didn't pay attention to Lao Tian's actions; she was used to these two people. She asked in surprise, "Lao Tian, ​​you found out?"

Tian Xueyi affirmed, "Of course! He's been the deputy station chief for so long, effectively acting as the top leader, and hasn't made any major mistakes. Da Linzi has brought him honor several times. How could he not get promoted?"

Station Master Qi, am I right?

Qi Desheng pulled the lunchbox closer to his wife: "Yes, that's right."

Tian Xueyi pulled the lunchbox to the middle and said to Yang Dalin, "Come on, don't be shy, Dalin, eat more."

Then he turned to Qi Desheng and asked, "And then?"

Qi Desheng asked in confusion, "What, and then?"

"What do you think? Your promotion is partly due to my apprentice, you could say it's largely because of him. Aren't you going to do something for him?"

"Sure, here's a box of mutton, please have some."

"You shameless bastard, is that all?"

"What else do you want?"

The two were arguing, and Yang Dalin kept eating with his chopsticks. He first gave a lot of mutton to Gong Xuemei's sister-in-law, and then put the rest into his own lunchbox.

After wolfing down their food, the two argued for a while. When they looked around, Yang Dalin and Gong Xuemei had already divided up all the mutton, leaving only some radish and vegetable soup.

Qi Desheng snatched the lunchbox and looked at it: "You brat, you didn't even leave me a bite."

Tian Xueyi also said, "It's a misfortune for our sect; we didn't even know how to leave a few pieces for our master."

Yang Dalin and Gong Xuemei exchanged a glance, chuckled, and ignored the two old men who acted like children.

Gong Xuemei took a bite, and seeing the two still staring at each other, she interjected, "Old Tian, ​​from what you're saying, Old Qi got promoted because Da Linzi did a great service?"

Tian Xueyi nodded: "Definitely, you can ask your husband, Lao Qi."

Gong Xuemei turned to look at Qi Desheng, who was embarrassed by his wife's retort and nodded: "Well, it's mainly because I did a good job, and Dalinzi's contributions also played a small part."

Tian Xueyi took the opportunity to pour the soup and radish into his lunchbox, grabbed the lunchbox in his hand, took a bite of rice and said directly: "Come on, no matter how good your job is, it's impossible for you to be promoted to the top position in a short time. If it weren't for Dalinzi, you would definitely not have been promoted so quickly. Can't you tell the truth?"

You're getting more and more hypocritical. You're in charge of making arrangements tonight, at least treat us to a big meal, or I'll tell everyone.

Let's go, Dalinzi, look forward to a big meal tonight.

"I won't disturb the couple's meal."

Qi Desheng looked at the empty lunchbox filled with vegetables: "Hey, no, you son of a bitch didn't leave a single drop of soup."

You want me to treat you tonight? Forget about it!

Tian Xueyi didn't care about Qi Desheng's clamor behind him. Anyway, he had already said that he would just go to Qi Desheng's house for dinner that night.

Don't worry about it. Even if Qi Desheng doesn't want to entertain, Gong Xuemei will definitely cook dinner tonight.

Qi Desheng was stubborn and refused to admit it.

As they left the office building, Tian Xueyi opened his lunchbox and said, "Pack me some meat."

Yang Dalin chuckled wickedly, "Brother Tian, ​​how did you know I left some meat behind?"

"Didn't you finish eating?"

Tian Xueyi said smugly, "Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?"

Believe it or not, Old Qi's wife also saved some for him; he didn't even finish his own lunchbox.

Hurry up and stop talking nonsense.

Yang Dalin had no choice but to pour all the meat from his lunchbox into Tian Xueyi's lunchbox.

Anyway, he didn't mind the saliva on Yang Dalin's chopsticks.

Yang Dalin also finished his meal in Qi Desheng's office.

They did indeed leave a few bites of mutton specifically for Tian Xueyi.

After finishing their meal and resting for a while, the two went back to work in the afternoon.

While at work, Yang Dalin asked Tian Xueyi if he could take the Qi sisters on a few short trips to the suburbs.

Tian Xueyi thought for a moment and said, "In principle, there shouldn't be any major problems, as long as we're not transporting important supplies, we'll be fine."

Also, I need to tell the team leader not to put him in a difficult position.

It's okay to do it once in a while, but don't do it often, otherwise other drivers will have complaints.

Also, when the time comes, have the two sisters wait for each other on the road.

Don't go back specifically to pick them up, since everyone goes out together when the vehicle is dispatched.

Ideally, our vehicle should be used for deliveries alone, so that no one else knows about it.

Otherwise, people will inevitably gossip.
