After speaking with Dazhi, Cheng Su took her Third Uncle to apply for a job, and everything went smoothly. Dazhi had specifically rented a place for a dormitory, and Third Uncle moved in right away.
Cheng Su suggested he stay two more days, but he firmly said it wasn’t convenient and not right. Besides, living with other workers, all males, meant there were plenty of topics to discuss.
Seeing his insistence, Cheng Su could only let it be, writing down her home phone number and several shop numbers for him to keep on hand in case he needed to find someone, and quietly slipped him thirty yuan.
Cheng Shuqiang was startled, his face flushing as he pushed the money back: "What are you doing, girl, sneaking me money like this? Take it back, hurry, take it back."
"Third Uncle, just keep it. It’s your niece showing her respect. Besides, didn’t you bring me chickens too? You’ve just arrived in Qing City and you don’t know, everything here is much more expensive than in Flower County and our town, there are also more expenses. Just take it, and buy whatever you need," Cheng Su wouldn’t take it back.
"I have my own money, really don’t need it. It’s not easy for you to earn money either; how can I just take it? Take it back! Besides, if your in-laws find out, they won’t be pleased," Cheng Shuqiang said, full of embarrassment.
"Third Uncle, you’re my only blood uncle, and my father’s own brother, I’m your blood niece. This is my show of filial piety, and it’s my own earned money, who dares say a word to me? Even Qi Taiguo wouldn’t dare," Cheng Su said with a smile: "Just keep it. Later on, when you’ve earned some money, or when I have a child in the future, you can give my child a red envelope."
Unable to refuse, Cheng Shuqiang accepted the money, saying, "What can I say about you, girl, ah."
