Tang Zhi said, "Wife, how can you be so naive? Just because he says he's a relative, does that make it true? I've noticed for a long time that Liu Ge has nothing to do with Cai. Cai helps Liu Ge because he secretly benefits from it. Just like when I used to help Liu Ge transport goods, it was all thanks to Cai's introduction. I don't know how much Liu Ge gave him, but I know I gave him two dollars. When someone introduces work, we have to give the introducer a cut; that's the rule. And this time, since he helped Liu Ge sell a house, I estimate he must have earned at least that much."
Tang Zhi held up one hand. "Fifty? That's quite a lot! I was wondering why he still followed Liu Ge around." Ye Fangfei suddenly understood.
Tang Zhi continued, "How much does a month's salary even amount to? He just made fifty bucks for making one connection; isn't that a lot?"
The couple finished wrapping the remaining dumplings and put them outside to freeze. They returned to the room and played with their daughter for a while. When they felt it was about time, Tang Zhi got off the bed to boil the dumplings.
"Wife, the dumplings are ready; let’s eat on the bed. Can you set up the table?" he called out from the kitchen.
"Okay." Ye Fangfei quickly got off the bed to set up the table and then came out to help carry the dishes and dumplings.
Once they were seated on the bed, Tang Zhi brought over some alcohol. "Wife, do you want to drink a bit?"
Ye Fangfei had just recovered from her midday drinking and still felt uncomfortable. "I’m not drinking anymore; you go ahead," she shook her head.
"Then I won’t drink either. After we finish eating, I'll keep you and our daughter company for New Year's Eve," Tang Zhi replied. He usually didn’t drink unless there were guests.
Since neither of them wanted to drink, they began eating dumplings. Ye Fangfei took a bite of the sauerkraut dumpling filled with pork cracklings; it was rich and fragrant, but the sauerkraut balanced it out perfectly, so it wasn’t greasy at all.
"This dumpling is delicious; the filling is seasoned just right. So tasty! Zhi, you cook better than I do," she praised. "Even an average chef might not season fillings as well as you do."
Ye Fangfei took another cabbage and meat dumpling and put it into her mouth. Tang Zhi was also enjoying the dumplings, one after another. Although their family was doing well, they didn’t eat pure white flour dumplings casually. Most of the time, they mixed cornmeal with white flour.
"What's the big deal? If you like it, I'll make it for you again next time," Ye Fangfei said, her heart swelling with pride as Tang Zhi praised her cooking.
"Of course! I love your cooking," Tang Zhi replied with a smile.
"Then it's settled! If I don't have to drive in the future, I'll cook for you at home. Just tell me what you want to eat," he added enthusiastically.
Ye Fangfei felt a secret satisfaction; see, she told him that men are easily flattered. After they got married, she complimented him on everything, and he became more diligent at home.
She had read somewhere that men need to be praised; the more you praise them, the better they become.
