First, there was no intention to scheme against Shazhu; second, there was no plan to give one's own body to Shazhu; merely, it was just hoping that Shazhu, out of consideration for the neighbors' face, could find a job for Xiao Dang.

Even if Shazhu and the Jia Family have no contact until death, that's a matter of the older generation; it has nothing to do with Xiao Dang and his generation.

The only person who can take over Qin Huairu's work is Xiao Dang; she surnamed Jia, she is the daughter of Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu, and the granddaughter of Jia Zhangshi.

Looking at oneself.

No money in the pocket; what can I use to buy cigarettes for Bangeng?

One faction agrees with Shazhu's suggestion, believing that everything is currently being renewed, everything is developing toward the better, and saying that Shazhu's loan to expand Bai Xu's operations could provide considerable experience for the future.

Not to mention anything else, just this pair of pants is worth at least over ten yuan; Xiao Dang had seen the price tag when passing a store, twelve yuan per pair.

「Silly girl, how could Grandma not believe you? Grandma is just like you, also penniless。」

Xiao Dang was startled again.

Wearing black half‑high‑heel leather shoes on the feet.

She also wanted to buy.

Xiao Dang felt a surge of curiosity and asked Jia Zhangshi a question.

Xiao Dang swiftly turned out his pockets, with a wry smile, said to Jia Zhangshi: 「If I had money, I would give it to him; I have no money. Do you have any? If so, give it to me, I'll go to the prison again to deliver it to Bangeng. If you don't believe me, I can take you there。」

Worry appeared on Jia Zhangshi's face.

Moreover, Jia Zhangshi has been fond of eating and lazy for years; even walking feels like a hassle, she is lazy to the bone. Going to work at the Yagangchang, she would have to move things and check materials; estimated she wouldn't last half a day before Jia Zhangshi would complain about not wanting to do it.

Asked about Bangeng's situation.

Jia Zhangshi suddenly realized she had gone off topic.

Thinking about entering Bai Xu in the future, this pretty girl would become his colleague.

They began cursing under their breath.

She had originally wanted to ask Shazhu for work, and since Shazhu is the head of Bai Xu, this livelihood could only be found working at Bai Xu.

He telling her to Bangeng is again giving You Fengxia a chance to leap over the dragon gate, letting You Fengxia have the opportunity to eat urban grain rations.

Others also took a liking to it.

The girl Xiao Dang was referring to is You Fengxia, who changed her name to Dang Xianghong.

The back kitchen.

「The house across the way, you see it, would rather stay empty than say anything to help the neighbors in the Siheyuan who are tight on housing; the Shazhu family is rotten to the core, and this old woman watches, waiting for them to die。」

「Shazhu, that damn bastard, he's got all this money yet won't spend a penny, tight as an iron rooster; we Jia Family are in such difficulty, can't we show a little mercy and give us some money to spend? Last time Lou Xiaoe came back, Yan Fugui told us that Lou Xiaoe's money is so much that several lifetimes couldn't spend it all, and we thought of letting Lou Xiaoe give the Jia Family some money to renovate the house, but Shazhu ruined it。」

In order to meet Bangeng's demand for cigarettes, they completely disregarded Xiao Dang's first meeting with You Fengxia and didn't even consider You Fengxia's relationship with the Jia Family.

Counting on Qin Huairu?

Qin Huairu now hates the Jia Family to death.

How to pull connections.

The more they spoke, the more they thought of Bangeng.

「When your brother comes back, Grandma still wanted to give her a chance to marry well, to marry into our Jia Family to serve your brother and please this old woman in front of her, but this flirtatious fox spirit flatly refused. Look at what she's wearing—what is this? The pants have squeezed out her butt cheeks; dressing like that, who knows who she's trying to seduce—she's shameless。」

People always need to find something for themselves to do.

One aspect is to support the family.

That place is not only favored by Shazhu.

He's really shameless.

They didn't reach a conclusion after arguing.

Envious gazes fell upon the girl; looking at her clean upper garment, Xiao Dang's pupils dilated unnaturally.

But because he was penniless.

Moreover, this matter from beginning to end has been Jia Zhangshi's one‑sided enthusiasm, taking a liking to You Fengxia; You Fengxia never had any thought of dating Bangeng.

Every day's routine, unfailingly, goes from the Siheyuan to Bai Xu, then returns from Bai Xu to the Siheyuan.

On the girl's left chest, there is a small badge that reads a few characters: 'Bai Xu Second Floor Manager'.

Just a moment ago, Jia Zhangshi was warning Xiao Dang not to mess around with You Fengxia, but the next second she suddenly started scheming, urging Xiao Dang with a sentence about borrowing money.

They just couldn't bear to spend that money.

In order to prevent these things from happening, Xiao Dang must show an attitude of having no interest in working for the Jia Family, letting them give the job to whoever they want, and not to me.

Fertile water does not flow into outsiders' fields.

Bai Xu staff?

Xiao Dang's thoughts started to stir.

He smiled at Jia Zhangshi, pushed the door open and left the Jia Family, and before leaving he threw out the line, 'I'm going to talk to You Fengxia.'

Nothing more than Xiao Dang monopolizing the job and not giving it to Bangeng, preventing Bangeng from entering the factory to work, which will surely require setting up various rules and regulations.

Xiao Dang worried; since she could remember, Shazhu has seemingly held great hostility toward the Jia Family, keeping a respectful distance.

Is there still a need to take it back?

Whose is it?

The higher-ups' loan to Shazhu.

They have been neighbors with Shazhu for these many years.

In Jia Zhangshi's mind, even if You Fengxia is a manager at Bai Xu, she is still a country bumpkin who came to the city to eat urban grain rations.

a three-gun emplacement.

Whenever You Fengxia is mentioned, Jia Zhangshi bursts with complaints.

On the other hand, Xiao Dang needs to have Shazhu help find work in order to create an image for Jia Zhangshi and Qin Huairu that she is striving to improve.

Because she knows in her heart what Jia Zhangshi worries about and what she is thinking.

Talking about the situation of visiting Bangeng, how did it get dragged onto Shazhu not dying a good death?

……

Idle Shazhu copied the later‑generation common shift‑rotation system; Bai Xu's staff each get one day off per week, and when Yu Li is off, You Fengxia becomes Bai Xu's lobby manager, in charge of the first and second floors, while Yu Li handles the first floor and also deals with second‑floor affairs.

A large front gate.

Nobody dares to cause trouble for Bai Xu.

Jia Zhangshi prepares to let Qin Huairu stay on and work for the Jia Family.

Lower your head and you see nothing; raise it and you see.

Even a clever woman cannot cook without rice.

Very capable.

How much money would this take?

Xiao Dang neither agreed nor denied Jia Zhangshi's suggestion that she borrow money from You Fengxia; under Jia Zhangshi's watchful gaze, she walked toward You Fengxia's home.

Xiao Dang's heart was moved.

Jia Zhangshi, who never looks for fault in herself, pinned the blame on You Fengxia.

I never expected someone in the Siheyuan to be wearing these pants.

Whether or not we succeed, we'll give it a few tries; if we happen to borrow money, great, and if we don't, it's no big deal—we can just plot against Qin Huairu tonight.

The business they set up is the same as Shazhu's; they also want to go into catering, preparing to mimic Bai Xu, copying it blindly, but because the other side is stronger than Bai Xu, and besides Shazhu wants to take out a loan to take over this shop.

The tone shifted.

Has a hint of being a pathfinder.

On his legs are the currently most popular pants.

The neighbors of Zhong Yuan.

Qin Huairu is going to remarry.

The grain ends up in the beggar's hands.

Worries found Xiao Dang.

As long as it's not a special guest.

"Grandma, that girl just now—is she also a neighbor of our Siheyuan? Why haven't I seen her these days? When did she move in?"

Today is You Fengxia's day off.

Just because her looks rival a painting's fairy, speaking bluntly, does Bangeng deserve her?

Jia Zhangshi is also shameless, constantly saying she'll marry You Fengxia to Bangeng, to show filial piety in front of her—do you deserve to let You Fengxia be filial to you?

Seeing Xiao Dang blinking her eyes.

Only Qin Huairu can go out.

No money in the pocket won't do.

Split into two factions.

The new shop wasn't implemented, so the old shop could only continue as before, staying just as it was; Shazhu even found time to slack off because of Bai Xu's booming business.

The two factions argued without end.

So it's very necessary to meet Shazhu and draw closer to him.

Bangeng's cigarette.

He was already angry inside.

His brows knotted into a big lump.

He wouldn't make a sound.

Having been here just over half a year, he had already cracked several theft cases.

His reputation soared.

It attracted the attention of some matchmakers, who would come to the police station for no reason, demanding that Guo Jianjun be dispatched, and once there, they would arrange a blind date for Guo Jianjun.
