This is a big deal, and as the matchmaker, Hao Chunmei definitely needed to say something in advance. Tang Zhicheng didn't care whether his future wife had a job; he believed that with his abilities, he could support her and ensure they lived well.
Every month, he not only earned over fifty yuan in salary but also made some extra money by carrying personal goods while driving. To be honest, his salary was just a small part of his monthly income; sometimes, the extra money he made was much more than his salary.
Ye Fangfei didn't expect Tang Zhicheng's salary to be so high. She knew that Ye Jianguo, who worked as a level six welder at the factory, only earned a little over sixty yuan a month. Meanwhile, Hao Chunying, as a workshop team leader, earned just over thirty yuan each month.
On the surface, it seemed that Ye Jianguo earned more than Tang Zhicheng. However, this couldn't be calculated that way; Ye Jianguo was already in his forties and had been working for nearly thirty years. In contrast, Tang Zhicheng was only fifteen years old and had been working for just two years. By this calculation, Tang Zhicheng's salary was indeed quite considerable.
"Well, I will also look for a job. My dad and others are helping me inquire," Ye Fangfei explained. "It's just that jobs are hard to find right now, so it will definitely take some time." She didn't want Tang Zhicheng to think she was unwilling to work.
"I'll keep asking around for you too. But there's no rush," she added.
"I think you should find an office job. That would be easier," Tang Zhicheng suggested, believing that a high school graduate like Ye Fangfei would be best suited for an office position.
Ye Fangfei also thought it would be good to find an office job. In her previous life, she had been an accountant, and she doubted she could adapt to working on the factory floor now.
"I think so too, but it depends on whether there are any opportunities," she replied. Although she had ideas in her mind, opportunities were essential.
As they chatted, Tang Zhicheng and Ye Fangfei had already walked around most of the park. Seeing that it was getting late and they had gathered enough information about each other, Ye Fangfei decided it was time to head back.
"It's about time; shall we go back?" Ye Fangfei suggested.
"Sure, but before we go back, let's make a stop at the supply store. It's my first visit; I can't go empty-handed," Tang Zhicheng replied.
Ye Fangfei was surprised by how considerate Tang Zhicheng was. She agreed it was appropriate and led him to the nearest supply store.
Once inside, they headed straight for the nutritional products counter.
Tang Zhicheng pointed at the shelves filled with canned goods and milk powder. "I'll take two cans of food, two cans of milk powder, and two bottles of Fenjiu."
Hearing him request so much, Ye Fangfei quickly intervened. "You shouldn't buy so much! Just get something small; that's what I meant."
It was time to show off, and there was no way Tang Zhicheng would listen to Ye Fangfei.
"It's fine, since it's my first visit, I should buy a bit more," he said.
"Don't worry, I brought enough money," Tang Zhicheng reassured her.
In the end, Ye Fangfei couldn't stop him, and as they made their way back, Tang Zhicheng was carrying a large bag filled with various items.
On the way, they passed by a grocery store where Tang Zhicheng spotted some watermelons and decided to buy one.
By the time they returned, Hao Chunying had already prepared the meal and was just waiting for Ye Fangfei and Tang Zhicheng to come back so they could eat.
Everyone in the courtyard knew that Ye Fangfei had gone on a blind date and that it had been successful.
The downside of living in a communal courtyard was that there were no secrets. If something happened in any household, within a minute everyone would know about it.
However, there were also advantages; the sense of community was strong, and everyone interacted like family. Unless one encountered particularly troublesome neighbors, even if there were some petty squabbles from time to time, when it came to serious matters, people would not stand idly by.
