Chapter 438 The Greedy Little Country Girl 18
Seeing Xu Jingxiang kicking the stool, Xu Manyuan was immediately furious: "You are even more rebellious. I think you are getting worse and worse these days!"
He picked up the bench and was about to smash it, but Xu Jingxiang simply took the pot of meat on the table and said, "Go ahead and smash it. If you do, I won't have any food today."
Liu Guihua stepped forward and tried to snatch it: "Jingxiang, what are you doing? Put it down quickly. What's wrong with you lately? You always get angry with us."
Xu Jingxiang was unmoved: "Let me go to work at the second factory, otherwise I will tell Pei Jingche that you are bullying Shen Weicang again."
"You guys know how glorious she is recently. Pei Jingche is really fond of her. He is in the army all year round. He misses her even though he can't see her. If he knew that you bullied Shen Weicang, you won't have a good life."
Xu Jingxiang was actually also afraid. In her previous life in the Pei family, all she encountered was cold treatment and exclusion. She hadn't seen someone like Xu Manyuan for many years.
But she had no choice. Apart from going to work at the second factory, she couldn't think of any other way to save money. She could only use Pei Jingche's power to scare Xu Manyuan and Liu Guihua.
The two were very angry. Xu Manyuan threw the bench aside with great force: "Okay, you can do it."
Xu Jingxiang breathed a sigh of relief, and her hands were shaking a little.

The Xu family was on the verge of a fight, but in the state-owned restaurant, the atmosphere between Shen Weicang and his companions seemed harmonious on the surface.
Zhu Yanfeng ordered a few dishes, rice and soup, and said to Shen Weicang in a gentle voice: "Comrade Shen, please eat some more."
Shen Weicang didn't hesitate to answer, he picked up his chopsticks and raised his voice.
Zhu Yanfeng watched her eat with gusto and asked her in a negotiating manner: "Comrade Shen, can I also call you Cang Cang?"
Shen Weicang didn't care much about this: "Of course, Professor Zhu, you can call me whatever you want."
Zhu Yanfeng picked up the serving chopsticks and picked up some Beijing-style pork shreds for her: "Then you don't have to call me like that, Cangcang, just call me by my name."
Just now, he heard Shen Weicang calling Cheng Qinji "Brother Cheng", and felt a little jealous, but he didn't want her to call him that too.
A word of "big brother" will always remind you of your age.
Shen Weicang's unintentional response stabbed him in the heart again: "This is not good. You are eight years older than me. How rude."
"I'll call you Brother Zhu too."
Zhu Yanfeng forced a smile and said, "Don't be so unfamiliar, Cang Cang. Shouting like that makes me feel like a gangster."
Shen Weicang thought he was too busy: "Then I'll call you by your name, don't think I'm rude or ignorant."
"How could that be?" Zhu Yanfeng said in surprise, "There's no need for us to be so particular about this."
There was no need to be so particular and even complain that it was not okay for her to call him "Brother Zhu". Shen Weicang rolled his eyes in his heart.
Cheng Qinji couldn't take it anymore: "Then Cangcang, you should call me by my name too. Why does calling me Big Brother make you a gangster?"
Shen Weicang let out a breath. She really couldn’t understand. It was just a name. Was there any need for them to be so fussy about it?
They are all from the capital, and each one of them has more troubles than the other.
Considering their status, she didn't bother with them: "Okay, Qin Ji."
Cheng Qinji said happily, "Hey!" and picked up some food for her: "The braised carp we had here a few days ago was good, Cangcang, eat more."
Shen Weicang put the fish meat into his mouth: "I ate enough at noon."
Cheng Qinji picked some more for her: "It's okay, fish is easy to digest."
Shen Weicang said "Ouch!" and said, "Qin Ji, please stop pinching me. It's not like I don't have hands."
Just as she finished speaking, another pair of chopsticks came over with shredded pork and green pepper. She looked up and met Zhu Yanfeng's eyes. The latter pursed his lips, with an unnatural look on his face: "Cang Cang, try this."
He was unwilling to let Cheng Qinji always steal the limelight, and he also wanted to hear Cang Cang call his name, but he didn't expect that she didn't like it.
The little girl ate the food with a smile on her face: "Yan Feng, thank you."
She had eaten lunch and was not very hungry now, so she only ate some vegetables and didn't touch the rice much.
Zhu Yanfeng looked at her with his eyes bent: "Cang Cang, I just heard your team leader say that you have finished junior high school, right?"
Shen Weicang nodded: "Yes, I'm pretty good, I used to help people write letters in the village."
Speaking of the letter, her expression paused, as if she had forgotten to reply to Pei Jingche.
Liu Chuanyu was eating alone. He could see that both Professor Zhu and Mr. Cheng were attracted to Cang Cang and were competing with her.
If he were to say, although Professor Zhu is older, he is better than Mr. Cheng. He is a professor at a top university and I heard that he has been going abroad for academic exchanges every year in recent years.
He was assigned to assist Zhu Yanfeng only yesterday. A few days ago, he heard that a great expert was coming to the county, who would be very famous in the capital, so he was asked to entertain him well.
When I met Professor Zhu today, I found that he is indeed elegant and gentle. You can tell at first glance that he is an intellectual, and an intellectual of the highest level.
Liu Chuanyu only attended a technical secondary school, which was considered highly educated in Xutang Village, so naturally he had a better impression of Zhu Yanfeng.
While eating, he thought to himself, maybe in the end Cang Cang won't want any of them, and that would be lively.
He took a sip of water and glanced at Shen Weicang's bowl, which was filled with a lot of food. He looked helpless:
"Yan Feng, Qin Ji, I can't eat so much. It's not like I didn't have lunch. Isn't this a waste?"
"It's okay," Zhu Yanfeng put down his chopsticks, "I'll pack up whatever you can't finish and take it home to eat."
Hearing this, the other three people at the table looked at him.
Cheng Qinji almost yelled, "It's not appropriate for you to do this."
These words were more or less ambiguous, and a little unspeakably offensive. Could it be that Zhu Yanfeng himself couldn't feel it?
Zhu Yanfeng remained calm and said, "What's wrong? Are you going to leave some if you don't take it away? It's shameful to waste food, don't you know?"
Cheng Qinji was about to say something when Shen Weicang said, "Yan Feng, I'll just take these home."
"It's rare for us to have a meal like this at home. Besides, it's impossible for me to ask you to take my leftovers home."
Zhu Yanfeng glanced at the remaining dishes on the table, his eyes flashing with annoyance: "How can I let you take the remaining dishes back? I'll order a few dishes later, and you can take them home when I come back in the afternoon, okay?"
Zhu Yanfeng's table manners were quite good. Cheng Qinji didn't eat much either. She only picked up food for Shen Weicang the whole time. The only person at the table who was eating seriously and attentively was Liu Chuanyu.
He ate so enthusiastically that the leftovers on the table didn't look very good. How could he let Cang Cang take them home?
When he visits their house next time, the elders will know that she asked him to pack up the leftovers and take them home after the first meal with Cang Cang. How can this be tolerated?
Shen Weicang only said a few polite words. She didn't expect Zhu Yanfeng to say this. Anyway, it would be a waste if she didn't take advantage of it. She seemed to be moved but also entangled: "Isn't this too expensive for you?"
Zhu Yanfeng stood up and said, "No, Cangcang, come with me and order some of the food you like, okay?"
Seeing the two of them walking over talking and laughing, Cheng Qinji felt so jealous that she followed them.
