Chapter 14

The bones in his body were still aching faintly, and he didn't want to get beaten up again.

"Brother Zhuzi, calm down."

First Uncle stood by Sha Zhu’s side and comforted him.

Looking at that brand-new bicycle, First Uncle’s heart felt indescribably complex.

Someone had told him in the morning that the leaders said in a meeting they would give Chen Tian a new bicycle coupon, but he didn't believe it.

Until this moment, when this bicycle appeared in front of him, he was jealous to the point of madness.

At this moment, First Uncle’s heart was quite unbalanced.

Ever since he started working, he had been in this factory.

He had worked diligently for so many years, only to go from an ordinary worker to a Senior Welder.

He had even received factory worker awards several times, but even so, he still hadn't received a single bicycle coupon.

This had led to him never having ridden a bicycle for so long.

But Chen Tian had a full-staff meeting on his first day of work, not to mention this banquet.

Not only that, he was given so many coupons; he heard there were even watches and such.

The treatment between himself and Chen Tian was worlds apart; how could he not be jealous?

And not only that, the other party was a Senior Engineer and would be responsible for technical work in the factory in the future.

It could be said that Chen Tian was now his future direct superior.

Thinking that he would have to work under this person in the future,

and have to work diligently, be ordered around, and serve tea and water, First Uncle felt quite depressed.

So depressed that his heart became a bit twisted, and he even had a few more traces of resentment toward Chen Tian.

"Flying Pigeon brand bicycle?"

"Master Chen, you are really generous!"

Liu Guangtian also heard the commotion in front of the Sihe Academy and hurriedly ran out.

You know, he had grown up and hadn't touched a bicycle a few times.

Although he had entered the factory to work, he still lived at home.

Every month, he had to hand over a few yuan for food expenses to Second Uncle.

And usually, Second Uncle would eat a large portion of eggs by himself.

If these two brothers wanted to eat such delicacies, they had to pay for them.

Having worked so diligently for a few years, Liu Guangtian didn't even have any oil left in his pocket.

He had no balance at all, let alone wanting to buy a bicycle.

Now, wanting to marry a girl was also particular.

A watch, a bicycle, a sewing machine, and a radio were indispensable.

With these few things, the girl's family would allow her to marry into your home.

If you didn't even have these things, you couldn't save face.

Even if the girl agreed, her family wouldn't agree.

Liu Guangtian was about the same age as Sha Zhu, but he was also a bachelor.

Although Chen Tian was the youngest in the Sihe Academy, his standard of living was not something they could compare to.

"I didn't expect Chen Tian to even buy a bicycle..."

Qin Qin Huairu stood at the gate, watching Chen Tian push the bicycle slowly past, her eyes complex.

The other party looked good, had a high salary, was full of masculinity, and even a young woman like Qin Qin Huairu, who was at the perfect age for picking, appreciated him quite a bit.

As soon as Sha Zhu saw Qin Qin Huairu, he shamelessly crowded over.

"Qin Huairu, look at his smug look."

"Didn't he just earn a little money? He’s almost treating himself like the King of Heaven."

Looking at Sha Zhu who was crowding over, Qin Qin Huairu’s eyes were full of disgust.

If it weren't for the fact that he brought her food every day, she wouldn't have wanted to pay attention to him long ago.

Not to mention being ugly, his brain wasn't smart, so he deserved to be single for so many years.

But Qin Qin Huairu wouldn't write her disgust for the other party on her face.

After all, she still had to rely on sponging off Sha Zhu to live.

"Master Chen, oh, no, Chief Engineer Chen, you’re back?"

Xu Xu Damao leaned against his own door, saw Chen Tian walking over, and hurriedly greeted him.

"When Chen Tian came back before, I said he was a person with real ability!"

"Look, look, where can you find such a young Senior Engineer!"

"Besides, he is now the Chief Engineer of the Rolling Mill."

"It’s normal for factory leaders to give a bicycle coupon!"

"From today on, Chief Engineer Chen is the role model we should learn from!"

Xu Xu Damao understood one thing from Factory Manager Yang’s actions this morning.

That was how noble Chen Tian’s status was.

Not only Factory Manager Yang and the other leaders, but even the experts in the expert group were respectful to him.

He, Xu Xu Damao, was just a movie projectionist, and his status couldn't be compared to the other party at all.

And so, Xu Xu Damao, who was a fence-sitter, instantly changed his course and started choosing to get on good terms with Chen Tian.

Chen Tian didn't pay attention to the others in the Sihe Academy; after locking the bicycle in the courtyard, he took the materials into the room.

Then, looking at the somewhat messy room, his eyes instantly turned cold.

"It seems there’s a thief in the house!"

Standing at the door, Chen Tian looked at the quite messy room, his eyes narrowing slightly.

If he took action to help at this time, he would definitely be able to catch the thief.

In that case, wouldn't Chen Tian owe him a favor?

Judging by the other party’s standard of living and status, his salary and benefits were definitely good.

This could be seen from the pile of things he had in his hands!

If he could make him owe him a favor, wouldn't he be eating and drinking well in the future?

Thinking of this, Third Uncle immediately shouted.

"Everyone come over, come over here, Chen Tian’s house has been robbed!"

Chen Tian glanced at him lightly; why did your attitude sound like your own house had been robbed?!

"What’s going on?"

"Which bastard has such big guts!"

"Stealing things into Chief Engineer Chen’s house!"

Xu Xu Damao heard Third Uncle’s shout and hurriedly ran over.

Now for him, the name Chen Tian was equivalent to an invisible imperial decree.

He had seen how polite the leaders of the expert group and Factory Manager Yang were to Chen Tian.

And his own house was near Chen Tian’s.

As the saying goes, fat water doesn't flow into outsiders' fields; he could also take this opportunity to flatter him well.

Moreover, Chen Tian was now the main person in charge of the factory, and all the workers under him had to listen to his orders.

In terms of status and reputation, who in the Sihe Academy could compare to him?

So Xu Xu Damao hurriedly ran over, wanting to curry favor well.

If he could serve Chen Tian well, then in the future, as long as he said a few good words in front of the leaders, wouldn't his good days be coming?

"Chen Tian’s house was robbed?"

Second Uncle, who was planning to go cool off, heard this and also hurriedly rushed over.

And at the Jia family, Qin Qin Huairu was looking at her son quite nervously.

When she got off work before, she saw her son covered in blood and even missing a front tooth, so she started asking the other party.

But under his grandmother’s instruction, Bang Geng refused to say anything.

And in the end, it was one of Qin Qin Huairu’s daughters who told her about the other party going to Chen Tian’s house to steal things.

Hearing this, Qin Qin Huairu was about to go crazy.

She had only been away from home for one day, and the other party had developed to the point of daring to break and enter.

What made her even angrier was that this matter was instigated by Jia Jia Zhangshi and the others.

Before marrying into the Jia family, she had already regretted it quite a bit, so she pinned all the hopes of her later life on her son.

So she taught her son from a young age that everything should be promising and he shouldn't do those petty stealing things.

She cultivated him to know how to save money from a young age, so he could support her in her old age in the future.

Little did she know that the other party not only didn't receive these good feedbacks but also became such a character under the instigation of his grandmother and father.

"It was Grandma who let Brother do it."

"They stole things back, and Xiao Dang and I didn't touch a single bit."

"They didn't intend to give us any..."

Xiao Xiao Huaihua’s tone was a bit humble.

"Xiao Xiao Huaihua, we can't eat things that were stolen, you know!"

Hearing this, Qin Qin Huairu felt even more hateful.

The other party was lazy and gluttonous, and she even let her grandson go steal things!

If this was caught, he would definitely be sent in directly or stay in a juvenile detention center.

Even if he could come out, no matter how long he was locked up, his criminal record would be left behind.

When he grew up, he would probably not be able to find a job.

And if he couldn't even find a job, he couldn't even support himself, let alone support her in her old age.

"I’ll go take a look, so as not to make a big scene later."

Qin Qin Huairu said this and wanted to step out of the house.

If Chen Tian planned to call the police, she could also say a few more words.

"You stand still, you’re not allowed to go anywhere!"

"It’s just taking a little bit of food, don't tell me he dares to call the police?"

"If Chen Tian had a guy back, that would be one thing, but what is he, a brat, worth!"

"That was the wedding room left for my grandson in the future, now that he took it, we go back and eat a little of his things, what does that matter!"

"This is what we should have!"

Jia Jia Zhangshi saw Qin Qin Huairu wanting to go out and blocked the door, not letting Qin Qin Huairu go anywhere.

"Didn't you hear what Mom said?"

"If you dare to go out, see how I deal with you!"

Jia Jia Dongxu, who was wrapped like a maggot on the bed, although a cripple, didn't forget to threaten her at this time.
