Chapter 1197: I am super capable
This breakfast took quite a while.
And Chen Chi had already served his third bowl of potato-stewed chicken, which made Master Jiang happy: "Eat! Eat more! Don't leave any!"
Although feeding the leftovers to the dogs wouldn't be a waste, he had an old habit of thinking it would be better if people ate it.
Song Qiao Song Qiao was dumbfounded: "You can eat so much!"
Chen Xi was a little embarrassed because Chen Chi had never eaten such a free and easy meal at home. Would it look like his appetite was too big now?
However, he couldn't keep up with the child's thinking, and only saw Song Qiao Song Qiao's eyes glowing, slightly admiring: "You actually eat more than the people in our house! So amazing!"
Chen Chi "ah-woo" ate the potato soaked in meat soup, and at this moment shook his head, his expression exceptionally proud.
Chen Yuan frowned slightly: "Is he not full at home? Don't let him eat so much at once, it's easy to get bloated."
When this was said, Chen Xi also reacted and quickly said: "Chen Chi, you can't eat anymore after this bowl."
"Oh." Chen Chi gripped the spoon, looked at the remaining food on the meal tray, and silently slowed down his movements.
Song Qiao Song Qiao opened his mouth wide: "So you can still eat..."
Really amazing!
But—
He leaned over and whispered: "It's right for you to eat a little less now, as long as you do more work in the morning and digest it, you will definitely be especially hungry at noon—"
"Braised pork at noon! Have you eaten braised pork? The braised pork Master Jiang makes is super, super delicious! It's also stewed with tiger-skin eggs!"
"I can make it too! You have to choose especially good pork belly and cut it into chunks, the fat is tender, and the lean is not dry at all."
"Eat it with rice, it's super delicious! You can also mix rice with meat soup, the soup is thick..."
Chen Chi held the spoon, clearly still chewing in his mouth, but the next moment saliva seemed to be surging out.
His eyes were also glowing as he stared at Song Qiao Song Qiao.
Then he clenched his fists and nodded heavily: "I am super capable!"
Although Chen Chi is a bit slow, his evaluation of himself is not exaggerated at all.
When Chen Yuan drove the electric sightseeing car to bring them to the pasture, Zhang Wang, who had received the news, was already looking forward to it.
Seeing two tall and big young men coming over, especially seeing one of them was about 1.9 meters tall, he smiled until his teeth were visible:
"Here?"
He couldn't wait to say: "Come, I'll take you to do some work and try it first. Some work is not something you can do just because your build looks good."
He had worked in the pasture for a long time and always felt that there was no great requirement for strength here, after all, he was a lame man himself.
But next, Chen Chi's energy for work made him feel—strength is really too important.
Zhang Wang used the simplest method to bring newcomers, which was to take them through everything that needed to be done every day.
"Every morning we get up, we have to clean up the pen first and get all the feces clean. But today we also have to take out the straw they slept on, it's been a long time and it's a bit rotten, so we have to change to new dry straw."
This action had no technical content. Use a shovel and a fork to collect the dry straw and feces into a bucket cart on the side, and then slowly push it to the fermentation pond.
There was a mixing machine newly purchased by Song Tan, which completely replaced half of the manual labor Wu Lei had here last winter.
However, his demonstration hadn't finished yet when he saw Song Qiao Song Qiao looking at Chen Chi, full of expectation:
"Have you learned it? How capable are you really?"
Chen Chi was really tall and strong, with a dark, muscular build, and a silly, honest smile. At this moment, he lifted his legs and entered the sheep pen.
The big and small sheep had already rushed out to graze in the warm weather of early spring, and he learned Zhang Wang's movements, used a shovel, and filled a bucket cart in two or three strokes.
Then he pushed it easily, and even when he poured it into the fermentation pond, it didn't take any effort.
Zhang Wang opened his mouth, looked at Chen Xi next to him who couldn't intervene at all, and couldn't help but show a big smile again.
When they reached the cow pen, he said "Ouch."
Two little calves that hadn't been born long ago weren't let out early in the morning, and for some reason, they were butting heads and fighting again—
Clearly their horns hadn't developed yet.
"Hey!" Zhang Wang was anxious.
"These two little calves are quite stubborn. They were at it yesterday, I guess they are lacking trace elements again..."
Chen Chi stood there and didn't move because he didn't know what to do.
Song Qiao Song Qiao rushed up with glowing eyes.
"I'll come, I'll come, I can persuade them to stop fighting! I'm super good at it!"
Oh, persuade them to stop fighting!
The experience he had in the village came to Chen Chi's mind. Without a word, he followed, then stood directly between the two cows, simply and rudely pressing his palm on one of them and pushing it back hard.
The calf mooed and was pushed back two or three steps, feeling aggrieved.
Everyone:...
Even Chen Yuan looked at Chen Xi with wide eyes:
"Your brother has this kind of strength?"
Chen Xi was also a bit bewildered: "He usually has a bit more strength, but..."
But the two calves in front of him were really strong too!
But when Chen Chi pushed them, why did it seem so easy?
However, next, only Song Qiao Song Qiao blocked the other one, and at this moment also pushed it to the side with force.
Oh.
Chen Xi had a numb face:
"Maybe children like them all have this kind of strength."
Zhang Wang also thought thoughtfully: "Hard to say, otherwise why would people say 'silly big guy'?"
Chen Yuan:...
For some reason, he always felt that this strength was unusual.
After the pigsty, chicken coop, and duck shed were cleaned up, Zhang Wang was already tired, but Chen Chi and Chen Xi worked together, one loading the cart and one pushing the cart, which was exceptionally easy.
The difference was that Chen Xi, as the older brother, only needed to stand there with a shovel and load the feces into the bucket cart.
Chen Chi really had a lot of drive.
"Do we still need to try?" Zhang Wang looked at Chen Yuan: "With such strength, why not recruit him? When we cut pasture grass later, they will be more energetic than others."
Chen Yuan smiled bitterly: "Uncle, why are you telling me? You have to ask Song Qiao Song Qiao."
That's true.
The newly appointed personnel Song Qiao Qiao stood by the fermentation pond, posing in a cool appointment posture to announce:
"Chen Chi, you've been hired!"
Of course, he wasn't cool for more than three seconds.
After saying this, he habitually counted on his fingers: "Five insurances and one fund, this is too complicated, let Chen Yuan brother explain it to you."
"And four days of leave per month—do you understand leave? It means there are four days when you don't have to do anything, I have them too! I can also take you to the small shop to buy snacks! And take you to watch cartoons..."
"Do you like watching Ultraman or Peppa? I've already seen Ultraman's super combined transformation!"
Chen Chi listened to these blankly, he didn't understand any of them, and didn't know what cartoons were—he should have watched them when he was a child, but he was too ignorant, and watched them too few times, so he had no memory of them long ago.
But Song Qiao Song Qiao said it was very amazing and interesting, so he looked forward to it and nodded heavily!
"And, and!"
Song Qiao Song Qiao started counting: "You can get a salary of 4000 per month. Do you know how much 4000 is? Anyway, it's enough to support a family—Sister gives me 2500 per month, and I can now support Big Bear, Big White, Big Treasure, Big King, Big Field, and many, many others..."
"4000, super useful!"
Speaking of this, he reacted again: "But you don't need to support a family, right? Wow, then you can buy windmills, bubble blowers, chewing gum, crispy noodles..."
"I need to."
Chen Chi suddenly spoke.
Chen Xi, who was still immersed in the joy that Chen Chi finally had a stable job, was stunned.
And then he saw Chen Chi smile foolishly at him: "My brother raised me before! When I went to carry garbage, Mom also said to take the money to raise my brother... but it shouldn't be as much as 4000..."
He said this, and his voice gradually lowered because he had no concept of how much 4000 was.
But!
Song Qiao Song Qiao said he could buy so many things and support a family, then—
"I want to support my brother!"
He shouted loudly.
Song Qiao Song Qiao didn't bring Chen Xi and Chen Chi to sign the contract until after 10 o'clock in the morning.
When the contract was laid out, he gestured to everyone with his hands and feet: "... Chen Chi is really good at working."
Song Tan couldn't help but smile: "It's rare to have a friend about your age. When you don't have work, you can make an appointment to play together!"
"You can also bring him back to watch TV, play with toys, and play games."
She said it very seriously, but Song Qiao Song Qiao was more serious than her, and sighed like a model:
"I'm very busy."
"Teacher Xin gave me homework, and I have to attend classes..."
Hearing the words 【Teacher Xin】, Chen Xi looked up subconsciously.
But before he could speak, Song Qiao Song Qiao added: "Where is Teacher Xin? Chen Chi still doesn't know how to count. I want him to go to Teacher Xin's online class."
Song Tan rarely saw Song Qiao Song Qiao so purely happy and innocent, and was pleased with his thoughtfulness, so she pointed upstairs:
"He's preparing lessons. You can go upstairs to call him, and by the way, take the unused field grid notebooks and pencils to Chen Chi."
Chen Xi stood up subconsciously and refused:
"No, no, I can buy them myself, how can I be so embarrassed..."
"Don't be embarrassed."
Song Tan waved her hand: "They are friends, as long as they don't try to go to the bad side, we adults shouldn't interfere too much."
She looked at Chen Chi thoughtfully, then smiled:
"Although it was just a meeting this morning, don't you feel that he has become much more lively in just half a day?"
How could he not feel it?
Chen Xi even felt that Chen Chi had said more words this morning than in the past whole year.
And he was so happy, so satisfied.
And Song Qiao Song Qiao, standing on the stairs and holding the railing, thought of another advantage of Chen Chi:
"Sister, he has such a big appetite, he can eat so much! More than me!"
Chen Xi, as an adult, felt his face burning again. However, he saw Song Tan just smiling:
"Is that so? Then tell Master Jiang to cook for a few more people, otherwise what if he isn't full?"
"Yeah!" Song Qiao Song Qiao nodded heavily, then asked: "Then can I go to the mountain to eat with him at noon?"
"Sure." Song Tan looked at Song Qiao Song Qiao, who rarely had friends of the same age, and the happiness he gained today didn't look less than Chen Chi's.
She simply did a good deed to the end: "What about your old phone? You can give it to Chen Chi, so you can make an appointment to play and eat together after work..."
"Oh right," Song Tan remembered one more thing: "It's too hasty, I forgot to add, you need to go to the city to get a health certificate tomorrow."
Chen Xi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Yes, I should, I came too fast and didn't think of these."
Song Tan smiled slightly:
"Let them play, if you, the brother, don't mind, you can bring him along when Song Qiao Song Qiao livestreams teaching."
"Can't bring, can't bring." Zhang Zhang Yanping had just come downstairs when he heard this and rushed downstairs fiercely, scaring Chen Xi into moving subconsciously!
His movements looked very professional, which made Zhang Zhang Yanping, who was a paper tiger, nervous. It took a long time for him to react and look at Chen Xi:
"Sorry, don't misunderstand, I don't think Chen Chi is... after all, Song Qiao Song Qiao came step by step like this."
"It's just that netizens are very harsh now. If they see him doing a lot of work or some strenuous work in the video, it's easy to cause a lot of unnecessary speculation."
"Whether it's good intentions or unintentional, it will likely develop into a dispute later. Song Qiao Song Qiao has only been signed for less than half a year, so we have to be steady."
"Otherwise, the reputation of the livestream room will be a mess."
Chen Xi didn't quite understand what livestreaming was, and how many people were watching? But he actually breathed a sigh of relief:
"That's good. Chen Chi just came out of the house, I'm afraid he will be seen by my mom after he has a little fame, she often watches various livestreams on Douyin..."
"That's fine."
Zhang Zhang Yanping persuaded him back:
"His skin is a bit dark now, he has muscles but his overall complexion and mental state are not very good. Working here for a while and raising him will bring big changes."
When he said this, he didn't notice Chen Xi's eyes quietly sizing him up, a trace of suspicion flowing on his face.
"... and we don't livestream on Douyin, it's fine."
Chen Chi listened to these words he didn't understand silently, obediently, without moving.
Until Xin Jun also came downstairs, Chen Xi looked at his fair and gentle appearance silently, and then looked at Zhang Zhang Yanping vigilantly, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"Chen Chi, right?"
He only sized him up for a while and quickly locked onto the target, then sat in front of Chen Chi:
"Song Qiao Song Qiao said he has a new friend, but doesn't know if you can use a phone or tell time, so let me ask—she's tidying up things and will be down in a while."
"Just right, I'll come and test your level to see if you can keep up with the online class..."
He smiled politely at Chen Xi, who was a bit nervous, and then reached out to Chen Chi:
"First, we need to know numbers to communicate with people. How many numbers do you know..." ===== CHAPTER 1198 =====
