Chapter 771: Chapter 300 Mid-Autumn Festival Gift Package_2
People said, "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river," and this was something that the old couple Jiang Jiaxing truly felt most deeply.
Especially Jiang Jiaxing, he no longer flaunted his daughter in the community... mainly because Jiang Qingkui was now working for that boy Zhou Wang, so he really couldn’t boast about it!
In fact, this topic had become somewhat taboo.
Even though, that time when they returned, Zhou Wang and Jiang Qingkui barely managed to persuade him, it didn’t mean he didn’t have any lingering feelings about it.
Moreover, these things couldn’t be kept secret anyway. The last time Jiang Jiaxing passed by, he happened to overhear two acquaintances chatting. One of them mentioned that Jiang Qingkui was working as a secretary for Zhou Wang now, with a somewhat mocking tone, and it left Old Jiang not eating well for several days.
It was just at this time that Old Wang, oblivious to the situation, grinned and said, "I heard Qingkui is working as a secretary for Old Zhou’s son, Zhou Wang? They grew up together, you might end up becoming even more closely related in the future..."
"Qingkui’s work as a secretary isn’t the same as in our state-owned enterprises. Speaking of real positions, it’s almost on par with a proper general manager. As for that boy Zhou Wang wanting to marry our Qingkui, he’s still far from it!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jiaxing’s face turned somewhat unpleasant, and he snorted coldly.
"Exactly, Old Wang, some things you can’t just say recklessly. Qingkui and Zhou Wang are clear and upright, it’s just a normal working relationship."
Li Xiaolei echoed.
Realizing he had misspoken, Old Wang, aware of some rumors in his social circle, quickly made a sheepish smile and spoke up:
"Yes, yes, look at my mouth, saying things without thinking. Qingkui is truly a young woman blessed by fortune, and she and Zhou Wang are partners in business; there’s no difference in status..."
Old Wang’s attempt at amends finally eased the expressions on Jiang Jiaxing and Li Xiaolei’s faces.
Jiang Jiaxing waved it off, "All right, Old Wang, save the flattery, just say what you and your wife came here for."
"Well, our boy is coming back from Magic City soon, as you know it’s hard to make money these days, so we’re thinking of finding him a stable job in Jing City. I heard our company is recruiting soon..."
As Old Wang began to speak, Jiang Jiaxing already understood.
No wonder they would need to turn to Zhou Dajun...
It wasn’t like before; many procedures were more regulated now, and finding an ordinary human resources staff wouldn’t be of much help. However, with Zhou Dajun’s position, he could still provide a lot of assistance.
"Okay, Old Wang, let’s do this, wait until the weekend, and I’ll arrange a meeting with Old Zhou for you. We’ll go fishing and have a meal together, and I’ll help steer the conversation in your direction. As for whether it works out, that’ll be up to you..."
After asking about Old Wang’s son’s situation and having a clear idea in mind, Jiang Jiaxing thoughtfully spoke up.
"Good, good, thank you, Old Jiang!"
Once Jiang Jiaxing agreed, Old Wang knew that half the matter was settled, and he quickly stood up to thank him.
Next was the customary back-and-forth, where Old Wang’s wife ’secretly’ placed the tobacco and alcohol they brought at their feet, and then it was ’discovered’ by Li Xiaolei, leading to a round of "You shouldn’t have" and "It’s really not worth much" exchanges...
While they were tugging and debating, two cars, one after the other, appeared on the community’s internal road. The one in front was a brand-new Audi A8L, its black paint reflecting the sunlight magnificently, and behind it was a medium-sized truck, its large carriage completely sealed.
Next to them, the security guide ran ahead.
Seeing this scene, the four standing in the garden entrance were momentarily stunned and temporarily forgot their tug-of-war.
"Is someone moving in?"
Old Wang guessed aloud, and then saw the Audi A8L stop right at the door of Jiang Jiaxing’s home, with the truck also pulling in and parking beside it.
"Huh, Old Jiang, did you buy something?"
"No..."
Jiang Jiaxing and Li Xiaolei exchanged puzzled glances, then all walked out, followed by Old Wang and his wife, who curiously trailed behind.
From the neighboring building, two middle-aged women who were at home saw this scene and, thinking Jiang Jiaxing was about to move out, also came out to join the bustle.
At this time, as the Ming City-plated Audi A8L stopped, the front and rear doors opened simultaneously, and from the driver’s seat and back row emerged three young men dressed in suits, while from the passenger seat, a woman about thirty-odd, dressed in professional attire and looking poised, stepped down.
The woman took off her sunglasses from her nose bridge and looked up to confirm the door number was correct. With that, she strode confidently in her high heels toward them, smiling as they all stood in awe.
"May I ask who are Jiang Jiaxing and Mrs. Li Xiaolei?"
Jiang Jiaxing and Li Xiaolei looked at each other again before stepping forward, with Jiang Jiaxing speaking up: "That would be us...and you are?"
"Hello Uncle Jiang, Aunt Li..."
Confirming their identities, the woman’s smile instantly became enthusiastic. She quickly approached, shaking hands with the somewhat bewildered Jiang Jiaxing and Li Xiaolei, then offered a slight bow.
"Let me introduce myself, I’m Chen Mei, the housekeeper for Zhou Wang, Mr. Zhou, in Ming City. I’ve been sent here on behalf of Mr. Zhou to specifically visit Uncle and Aunt today..."
Chen Mei’s voice was clear and everyone around could clearly hear it.
