Chapter 217 It's time to find a partner
Cui Changjia smiled and said, "Yes, it's quite a coincidence."
She was smiling on her face but despising them in her heart. Couldn't she find a reasonable reason and treat them as fools?
Kong Yudan said from the side, "Tao Lei is out of town for the New Year. Let's make an appointment when he comes back. You have invited us twice, but we haven't yet."
Cui Changjia thought to himself, she and Tao Lei started calling each other "we" so quickly.
"Okay, then call your cousin along, and we can all become friends." Cui Changjia said with a smile as he looked at Kong Yudan's cousin, "I don't even know your cousin's last name yet."
Cousin Kong Yudan looked at Cui Changjia's smiling face and felt itchy in his heart, "My surname is Yang, and my full name is Yang Feng. I work in the quality management department of our steel plant. If it is convenient, can you leave your phone number? I can contact you if I need any help in the future."
"Okay."
Cui Changjia immediately exchanged phone numbers with Yang Feng. Yu Guangzhong and Kong Yudan's expressions were not very good.
On the way back to the factory, Chang Ying said to Cui Changjia, "That guy surnamed Yang is not a good guy at first glance. He looks at you with lustful eyes. Why did you leave him your phone number?"
"I can't watch Tao Lei jump into the fire pit." Cui Changjia sent the mobile phone number and name to Zhou Qingyan in the form of a text message, and attached a sentence: The name and mobile phone number of the person who watched the movie with Kong Yudan today.
No matter what this person's past is, it would be fine if Kong Yudan could date Tao Lei, get married and have children with him now. But she is sorry that he is still not honest even though they are together. Chinese people are loyal, and she can't just watch Tao Lei jump into the fire pit.
Cui Changjia was still thinking about calling Chang Yuanliang back. After sending the message to Zhou Qingyan, she called Chang Yuanliang.
Chang Yuanliang answered the call quickly.
"Uncle Chang, Chang Ying and I have finished watching the movie, and now we are going back to the factory together."
"That's great. We are at your factory and will wait for you to come back and have dinner together."
"You went to the factory?"
"Yes, we are all here, please come back soon."
After hanging up the phone, Cui Changjia looked at Chang Ying and said lightly, "I feel like you might be in trouble tonight."
"What's wrong with you?" Chang Ying sneered. She tapped her phone and said, "I have evidence. I'll let you guys hear what you introduced to me later."
Cui Changjia was surprised, "Great, Chang Ying, you have made such progress."
"It's all thanks to my master." Chang Ying sighed, "I think recording is not good enough. Next time I go on a blind date, I will hire a videographer to record the other person's behavior. Do you know how disgusting that guy was? He picked his nose in front of me, and I didn't throw coffee at him. I think I have good manners."
If Cui Changjia had not asked her to record a video with Zheng Yuehong before, how would she have remembered to record the blind date?
Cui Changjia was so happy that she even hired a videographer. What a surprise!
In fact, during the Chinese New Year in the past, Chang Yuanliang's family would also come over for dinner, but this year the situation was different. Cui Changjia thought they were not coming, but unexpectedly they still came.
There was no other place in the factory to accommodate them, so they could only eat in the cafeteria.
As soon as Cui Changjia and Chang Ying entered the cafeteria, they saw a bunch of beautiful roses placed on the corner of the table.
As soon as Cui Changjia entered, he praised, "Wow, Aunt Zheng's roses are still blooming so brightly!"
She thought that her family would not receive roses from Zheng Yuehong this year. After all, Zheng Yuehong had never visited the Cui family again since the Cui family fell into poverty.
"Jia Jia, Xiao Ying are back. How was the movie? Was it good?" Zheng Yuehong asked with a smile. "It was very good. You can go and watch it if you have time in the next two days."
"We are not like you girls. We have to take care of the family's food and drink during the New Year, and we have to visit relatives. We don't have a single day to spare."
Jiang Hongying brought over two plates of mixed cold dishes and placed them on the table in the cafeteria, saying with a smile, "So when they are young girls, we play with them. When they find their mother-in-law's family, they become just like us."
Zheng Yuehong didn't dress up specially, just a down jacket and woolen trousers, but judging from the texture, her brown short down jacket must have cost at least two or three thousand yuan.
In contrast, Jiang Hongying was wearing an apron over her black cotton coat. The difference between the two was obvious.
However, there was no sign of concern on Jiang Hongying's face. As someone who had struggled out of adversity, her state of mind was very different from before.
Cui Changjia looked at her mother's clothes and secretly made up her mind that she must work hard this year and let her mother live the life she used to.
Chang Ying added, "So it's better to be a girl for life."
"Nonsense," Jiang Hongying said angrily, "How can one stay a maid forever? Even a fool would know to find a mother-in-law's house. Go and ask your father and uncle to come for dinner."
Chang Ying turned and went out.
Zheng Yuehong said sourly, "Sister-in-law, only you dare to say that about Xiaoying. I dare not say it. Sigh," she sighed, "It's not easy to be a stepmother."
Cui Changjia sneered and thought, that’s because you are not sincere to others at all!
She took off her coat, rolled up her sleeves, and helped cook and serve the food.
There were so many of them that they had to sit at two tables.
The cold dishes and braised dishes are all on the table, and the stews are also prepared in advance. The hot dishes can be fried when people arrive.
Aunt Zhang wanted to cook, but Cui Changjia pushed her away. It was New Year's Day, so how could she ask someone to cook?
"Oh, you've never fried it before," said Aunt Zhang, "I'll fry it in a minute."
Jiang Hongying came over and pulled her away. "Tonight you just sit there and wait for the food to come. It doesn't matter if she cooks it well or not, as long as it's edible."
Cui Changjia can also cook, but his cooking is really average, but still well done.
Chang Ying called Cui Wenquan and his father to come for dinner, and when she saw that it was Cui Changjia who was cooking, she quickly ran over to take her place.
Cui Changjia was even more humble.
Chang Ying rolled her eyes at her and said, "My dear, you should just be a waiter and stop wasting our time."
Cui Wenquan and the others sat down, and Cui Chengze, Chang Xiao, Chang Hui and Xiaobao also came and sat down.
The room was full of people laughing and making noises, it was quite lively.
Only Zheng Yuehong felt uncomfortable when she saw the happy Chang Yuanliang and the relaxed Chang Ying. Why? This is not their home, why are they so happy?
Chang Yuanliang was very happy and drank a little too much. When they left, Cui Changjia drove their car in front and Cui Chengze drove their factory's van behind, to see Chang Yuanliang and his family off together.
Chang Yuanliang was snoring in the passenger seat. Zheng Yuehong said to Cui Changjia, "Jia Jia, it's time for Chang Ying to find a partner. Xiao Liang works in a public institution, has a stable job, and is tall. If you miss this opportunity, you may not be able to find someone with such good conditions."
