Chapter 49 Should honest people be bullied?
Early the next morning, before going to class, Lin Shuang received a call from his good buddy in his hometown.
This buddy's name is Yang Deyou. When he was studying in his hometown, he and Lin Shuang had a relationship of climbing over the wall to surf the Internet together, helping him bring food, and getting into fights and beatings with him.
If something happened, he would be such a good buddy.
After graduating from high school, Yang Deyou went to work overseas.
"Dashuang, how are you doing lately?"
"If you fart, hurry up. I have class in the morning." Lin Shuang was not polite to him.
"Hehe..." Yang Deyou laughed honestly, "I have nothing to do. I just plan to go to Huaicheng to find some work recently."
Hearing his laughter, Lin Shuang could imagine his familiar, loyal and honest appearance.
This guy is just a little too honest.
In today's society, being too honest is sometimes not a good thing. The word "honest" has almost become a derogatory term.
"I asked you to come to Huaicheng a long time ago. We can also take care of each other..."
Halfway through the words, a bun was handed to Lin Shuang's mouth, and Lin Shuang subconsciously bit it down.
It was the little maid who was feeding him with the buns in both hands.
Lin Shuang answered the phone before he finished breakfast, and the maid obediently sat next to him and provided feeding services.
Yang Deyou continued on the phone, "Yes, it is true that there are few job opportunities here in my hometown. Over there in Huaicheng, there may be a little more jobs, right?"
His words were hesitant and filled with uncertainty about the future.
"So whenever you come to Huaicheng, I will pick you up then."
The little maid fed Lin Shuang some porridge with a spoon again.
This is the millet porridge she made specially when she got up early.
Yang Deyou said, "Well, I'm on the train and will arrive at noon."
"You...you didn't tell me earlier!"
The little maid was feeding beside her, blinking at Lin Shuang with innocent eyes.
He suppressed the curse that he wanted to blurt out and took another mouthful of the porridge she fed him.
"Okay, I'll pick you up at noon."
"Okay, I haven't seen you for a long time, Dashuang. Let's get together at noon!"
After hanging up the phone, breakfast was almost finished by the little maid.
Lin Shuang hugged the bowl and finished the remaining mouthful of millet porridge. The little maid skillfully wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue.
"Master, today is Tuesday, Ayao, I still have to go to the hotel to learn how to cook. I won't be back at noon."
"Okay, I happened to be picking up a friend at noon." Lin Shuang grabbed the little maid's face and rubbed it, "Study hard and make progress every day."
The little maid rubbed her cheek against his palm and said, "Study hard and make progress every day~"
The tone of her words had been distorted by the unscrupulous master.
By noon, Lin Shuang picked up Yang Deyou at the train station.
He was carrying large and small bags, and a woven bag on his shoulder, just like every migrant worker who was running around in vain and covered with weather.
Lin Shuang hurriedly stepped forward and took his two bags.
Yang Deyou punched his chest, "We haven't seen you for a few months, Dashuang, you are so handsome again!"
"I don't believe what others say, but if you say this, I guess I've become handsome again!"
Lin Shuang grinned, "I'm a little worried. Why are you so handsome?"
Yang Deyou smiled and shook his head, "Dashuang, you are still the same."
The two of them walked to Lin Shuang's car carrying their bags.
Yang Deyou exclaimed, "Dashuang, is your car a Lamborghini?"
He looked at the dust on his luggage and seemed a little embarrassed to sit in it. Lin Shuang couldn't help but stuff his big and small bags into the trunk, "Brother has made a little fortune recently. It's the right time for you. Come and have some soup with me, haha."
Yang Deyou got into the car and didn't know where to put his feet.
"You have been smart since you were a child, and I knew you would make a lot of money."
He smiled and was sincerely happy for his good friend.
Yang Deyou came to Huaicheng and lived in a relative's house.
When they arrived at the place and helped him make the bed, Lin Shuang asked about something else.
"Just tell me straight up, brother, whether your coming to Huaicheng this time has something to do with Ma Xiaofang."
Yang Deyou sighed, "Xiaofang's mother said that if she wants to get married, she must have a house in Huaicheng with Xiaofang's name written on it."
"I did the math. I couldn't get enough money in my hometown, so I thought of coming to Huaicheng to work harder."
"I contacted an electronics factory, which provided me with three meals a day. I worked for more than ten hours a day, and I could make several thousand dollars a month."
Ma Xiaofang is Yang Deyou's girlfriend of several years. She also has two younger brothers at home.
Lin Shuang couldn't comment on this matter, so he said instead, "Forget the electronics factory. Wanwan and I opened a milk tea shop together. Come and work for me."
He sat down on the iron frame bed and said, "I will give you ten thousand a month. Please help me watch more."
Regarding the matter at the milk tea shop, Lin Shuang was originally thinking about who to look for to watch in the shop every day.
He and Su Wan have to go to class every day, so they definitely don't have time to keep an eye on it, so they can only be a hands-off shopkeeper.
Now Yang Deyou came to his door. Lin Shuang was very relieved about this buddy.
Yang Deyou scratched his elbow, "I would like to do something for you, but ten thousand a month is really too much. Can your milk tea shop still make money?"
"I told you that my brother has made a little fortune, so you can just drink the soup."
Lin Shuang pulled him up and said, "Let's go and take a look now. You can start working right away."
Like a capitalist who can't wait to squeeze new employees.
So from that day on, Yang Deyou became the first employee of the milk tea shop, helping Lin Shuang keep an eye on the decoration site.
Before leaving, Lin Shuang hesitated for a while, and then asked, "As for Ma Xiaofang, I suggest you ask clearly early. I'm sure the betrothal gifts and other things will also be a lot of money in the future."
Yang Deyou scratched his elbow again, "I asked... Xiaofang said that according to their family's customs, the betrothal gift, change fee, transportation and other things, the total cost is estimated to be more than 200,000."
When he mentioned "more than two hundred thousand", his words were a little difficult.
Lin Shuang's face darkened, "Add a house in Huaicheng with her name on it?"
Yang Deyou nodded silently.
Lin Shuang's voice became louder, "Does it have to be her?"
This time Yang Deyou made no move.
Lin Shuang punched him and said, "Think about it for yourself. What can you do with so much money? Do you have to marry her?"
He finally added, "There are many beautiful girls in Huaicheng, and they are more sensible. Don't hang yourself on a tree."
Turning around and walking out of the renovation site of the milk tea shop, Lin Shuang kicked away a pebble on the side of the road.
"Ouch!"
Should honest people be bullied like this?
Ma Xiaofang's family just wants to win over Yang Deyou because of his honesty.
Um? Was there any strange sound just now?
Lin Shuang kicked another pebble away.
"Ouch!"
He looked up following the sound.
There was a girl across the road covering her forehead and staring at him.
Thank you for paying attention to the 588 coins for ignoring the reward; thank you all for reading and voting, okay?
