Chapter 371 Good People Are Rewarded
Huang Yuejin was extremely flustered.
He doesn't have any powerful connections. If he did, he wouldn't have worked as a temporary worker for so many years.
It's confirmed; it was Zhuang Qingxiang and the others who came up with the solution for him.
With a forced smile, Huang Yuejin vaguely answered the office director's inquiries, and finally followed him to the personnel department to complete the formalities.
Everyone looks at him differently now.
After completing the formalities, Deputy Section Chief Jiao from the Personnel Department warmly asked him if he had found a girlfriend, saying that there was a nice girl who was a good match for him and that he should take some time to meet her.
After leaving the personnel department, he ran into Section Chief Li from the housing management department, who patted him on the shoulder and told him to work hard, and that the factory would allocate him a house after the New Year.
When Huang Yuejin got home, he felt like he was walking on cotton, completely floating.
"Yuejin, how's it going? Did you get it done?" The entire Huang family was at home, waiting for his news.
Huang Yuejin nodded vigorously and took out his work ID.
"It's all done. I'm a full-time employee starting today. Director Xu from the office said he'll transfer me to a different position tomorrow, so I won't have to carry heavy bags anymore. Deputy Section Chief Jiao from the Personnel Department said he'll take me to meet some girls this Sunday, and Section Chief Li from the Housing Management Department said the factory will allocate me a room after the New Year..."
After Huang Yuejin finished speaking, the Huang family home was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Is this... really not a dream?
How come all these good things are happening all of a sudden?
Huang Yuejin looked at them blankly: "Dad, Mom, eldest brother and sister-in-law, second brother and sister-in-law... why aren't you saying anything?"
After calling out to everyone, they finally realized what was happening.
Grandpa Huang slapped his thigh: "Oh my goodness, we've met a benefactor! No, no, it's Yuejin, good deeds are rewarded! I told you to change your temper, not be so hot-tempered, and look, good things have come your way! If it weren't for you, how could they have found their son? And if they hadn't found their son, how could so many good things have fallen on your head?"
"Dad, is this really not a dream?" Huang Jizong, the eldest son of the Huang family, couldn't help but ask. "Why does it feel so...unreal?"
Everyone else nodded vigorously in agreement, including Huang Yuejin.
Grandpa Huang slapped him on the arm, making him jump up in pain.
"Dad, what are you doing? It hurts so much!"
"If it hurts, it's not a dream!" Grandpa Huang grinned, revealing his gap-toothed smile. "It's real, all real! Mom, today's a good day. Go buy some groceries, and let's have a nice family meal to celebrate."
The Huang family was brought back to life, and everyone was all smiles, busy with their own things.
Only Huang Yuejin squatted on the ground without saying a word.
"Yuejin, what's wrong?" Grandpa Huang, who was free, squatted down next to him and asked.
Huang Yuejin scratched his head: "Dad, I feel like the gifts they gave were too generous. Shouldn't we give them something in return?"
"What's their situation? What's our situation? Even if we emptied our pockets to give them gifts, they wouldn't even look at us." Old Huang sighed. "I think we should just go over there, say a few nice words, and you should also apologize properly. Look at how fierce you were when they first moved in..."
Huang Yuejin rarely listened to his father and was a notorious troublemaker in the neighborhood, but now he nodded obediently, indicating that he would listen.
"From now on, we'll help them if they need anything, including the people living in that house. We can't let them be bullied," Grandpa Huang added.
Huang Yuejin nodded vigorously: "I know, it's that guy who came to bully Sister Jin. If they dare to come again, I'll teach them a lesson with my fists!"
Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.
Just as the Huang family was having a lively dinner to celebrate Huang Yuejin's successful promotion, a commotion broke out outside.
Grandpa Huang quickly asked everyone to be quiet and listen carefully.
A short while later, Huang Yuejin suddenly stood up, clenching his fists: "Looks like someone's causing trouble. You guys keep eating, I'll go check it out!"
"Great Leap Forward!" Old Huang shouted quickly, "Take it easy, you just got promoted, don't cause a big fuss."
"I know what I'm doing!"
Huang Yuejin said that he ran out, but Grandpa Huang was worried and asked his other sons to go out with him to check and stop him if necessary.
At this moment, Sister Jin was yelling at her two sons, telling them to get as far away as possible.
It's unbelievable! Li Weixing was locked up for a few days, and after he came out, he suddenly fell ill and collapsed. Now he can't speak clearly, and half of his body is still immobile.
Whenever he fell ill, Jin Lili would run faster than a rabbit. Li Weixing would then expect his son and daughter-in-law to take care of him, but they had no intention of doing so and would simply carry him to Jin Guilan.
"Mom, Dad is sick. We have to go to work; how can we just take care of him? As the saying goes, 'A night of marriage brings a hundred nights of kindness.' You've been married for decades; if you don't take care of him, who will?"
Li Chao frowned and earnestly advised him.
Li Wei nodded in agreement: "Yes, Mom, you're my own mother. How can you bear to see us neglecting our work because of taking care of Dad? We're still young, it's the time for us to contribute to the country and strive for success, how can we just stay at home taking care of a sick person?"
Jin Guilan jumped three feet high in anger, pointing at Li Chao and saying, "That's your father, not mine! I'm divorced from him, we have absolutely no relation, why should I serve him? Besides, you all have to work hard and contribute to the country, don't you think I don't have to work? If I don't work, will you support me? Give me money to spend? No? If you don't give me money and still expect me to take care of this person who has nothing to do with me, are you expecting me to starve to death?"
Jin Guilan grew increasingly angry as she spoke, rolling her eyes. "Li Chao, you have to work, but your wife doesn't. Why can't she take care of this old geezer?"
"Mom, do you even know what you're saying? My wife doesn't work, but she still has to take care of the kids and the house. Besides, it's so inconvenient for her to take care of her father-in-law..."
"Then it's even more inconvenient for me!" Jin Guilan said angrily. "I'll say it again, I have nothing to do with him anymore. He's a stranger, and I have no obligation to take care of him!"
Li Chao and Li Wei didn't want to hear this at all.
What stranger? We've slept in the same bed and had three children together. Even if we're divorced, we can't be strangers.
Before they could say anything more, Jin Guilan had already raised a fire poker in anger.
Huang Yuejin rushed over at that moment, blocking Jin Guilan's way and pointing menacingly at Li Chao and Li Wei.
"You two little bastards, take your old bastard and get out of here! Don't cause trouble in our alley!"
Li Chao frowned: "Who are you? This is our family matter, what's it to you?"
"Heh, who am I? Go ask around the alleyway, who in these neighborhood doesn't know who Huang Yuejin is?"
As Huang Yuejin spoke, he raised his fist and waved it at them, "See that? With a fist like that, I could kill both of you with one punch! This is my last warning, this isn't your home. You'd better go home and deal with your own family matters! If you keep whining, I'll just grab you by the legs and throw you out!"
