Qiao Yicheng frowned: "My dad?"

"Yes, Sanli went to my house with him because of work. He applied for a job at Chenxing but was not accepted, so he wanted to use my connections..."

After listening to Zhou Chen's narration, Qiao Yicheng's face turned red and he slammed the table angrily, "Qiao Zuwang, he really has no dignity at all."

His father went to his good friend's house to ask for help, which was a great humiliation for Qiao Yicheng, who had a strong sense of self-esteem.

Zhou Chen said: "I found a reason, saying that he is not old enough, and then said that Erqiang and Simei should go to work at Chenxing Textile Factory, but this matter still needs your consent."

Chapter 497: Drunk Qiao Yicheng, Lively Qiao Family

"Let Erqiang and Simei go to work in your factory?"

Qiao Yicheng's expression changed slightly. He certainly didn't want his father to ask Zhou Chen for help. He didn't want to owe Zhou Chen a favor, and Zhou Chen's refusal also satisfied him.

But Zhou Chen actually said that he would let his younger brothers and sisters go to work at Chenxing Textile Factory, which made him not know how to answer.

The name of Chenxing Textile Factory is now absolutely well-known in Jinling. It is a top-notch enterprise. Although it is a private enterprise, its treatment is definitely better than most state-owned enterprises. I wonder how many people want to squeeze into Chenxing Textile Factory.

The only downside to Chenxing Textile Factory is that it doesn't have as stable a staff as state-owned enterprises. If you don't work hard and don't do it for long, you may be fired.

But in contrast, the wages of the workers there are half as much as the average wage in Jinling, and there is also a year-end bonus at the end of the year, ranging from one month's salary to one year's salary.

If his younger brothers and sisters could have such good jobs, Qiao Yicheng would naturally be happy to see it.

But the problem is that this job was done by Zhou Chen with help, and it is also Zhou Chen's own business, which makes him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

However, when Qi Weimin saw Qiao Yicheng hesitating, he became very dissatisfied and started to scold him.

"Qiao Yicheng, what are you thinking about? Chenxing is such a good company, others want to get in but can't. Besides, Zhou Chen is not an outsider, and he will definitely marry Sanli in the future. Then they are all family members, and helping one's family solve work problems is helping each other."

Qiao Yicheng glared at Qi Weimin: "What do you know?"

"I don't understand? If you want to protect your own self-esteem, I can ignore you and do whatever you want, but Erqiang and Simei, one graduated from elementary school and the other graduated from junior high school. Do you think they can find a good job? It's better to listen to Zhou Chen and go to work in Chenxing. At least they are family and don't have to worry about being cheated."

Qi Weimin is a good man. He knows what Qiao Yicheng is thinking, but he also considers Erqiang and Simei, who are his cousins.

Qiao Yicheng thought about it and it was true. Erqiang had been around for several years and he was not at all worry-free. The same went for Simei. It would be a good thing if she could be sent to Chenxing to work.

But he was worried that if he let them go to work in Zhou Chen's factory and got into trouble, he would be too sorry for Zhou Chen.

"Zhou Chen, my brother Erqiang and sister Simei are both noisy people. Will they cause you trouble if they go to work in your factory?"

After thinking for a while, he felt that his younger brothers and sisters' career prospects were more important, so he put his own face aside for the time being.

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "What kind of trouble can they cause? Erqiang is actually very honest. Simei is a bit jumpy, but she also knows the big picture. I will have someone give them an easy and simple job when the time comes. Don't worry."

"Need not."

Qiao Yicheng said, "I am very grateful that you helped Erqiang and Simei enter Chenxing. As for what they will do, it depends on their own abilities. You don't need to make any special arrangements. Even if they are assigned hard and tiring work, let them bear it themselves. We can't take care of them for their entire lives."

He had spent the first half of his life taking care of his younger siblings, but he knew very well that he couldn't take care of them forever, especially now that they were all grown up.

Zhou Chen shrugged, indicating that it didn't matter: "You are their eldest brother, whatever you want."

Qi Weimin had a helpless look on his face. His idea was different from Qiao Yicheng's. If it were him, he would not reject Zhou Chen's kindness, but he would definitely keep it in mind and find ways to repay him with other things in the future.

This is also caused by Qi Weimin and Qiao Yichen's different personalities and living environments.

Qi Weimin is just like his father, full of enthusiasm for people, willing to help others, and at the same time will not resist other people's kindness.

Qiao Yicheng is a bit of a closed-off person. Whenever something happens, even if it's a good thing, he will think a lot and weigh the pros and cons.

"It just so happens that I'm on vacation during this period. Go back and tell Erqiang and Simei that if they are willing, I will personally send them to Chenxing the day after tomorrow morning."

Qiao Yicheng knew that Zhou Chen meant well, and asked hesitantly, "Is this appropriate?"

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. When I get married to Sanli, they will also be my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. We're a family, so there's nothing inconvenient about it."

Qiao Yicheng gnashed his teeth and looked at Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, you bastard, I warn you, if you dare to bully Sanli, I will fight you."

Although he also thought that Zhou Chen was a good match for his sister, things had not happened yet, and he couldn't bear to see anyone say these things in front of him, especially Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen laughed a few times and didn't provoke him anymore.

The three of them drank two bottles of wine, ate and chatted, and in the end, Qiao Yicheng got drunk and started to swear and complain.

The driver arrived before they finished their meal. Zhou Chen asked him to get in the car first. After they finished their meal, the three of them got back in the car.

He first drove Qi Weimin home, and then drove to Shamao Lane. Zhou Chen personally sent Qiao Yicheng to the door of Qiao's house.

"Bang bang bang."

Zhou Chen knocked on the door. Qiao Yicheng twisted his body to get rid of his support: "I don't need your support. I'm not drunk. I can still drink."

"Okay, I know you're not drunk, but I've had too much to drink and I can't drink anymore."

Qiao Yicheng laughed loudly: "Zhou Chen, I am not as good as you in other aspects, but when it comes to drinking, you are not as good as me, haha..."

As if he had found a place where he was better than Zhou Chen, he laughed happily like a child.

At this time, the door was opened and it was Qiao Sanli who opened it. When she saw Zhou Chen and Qiao Yicheng, she was immediately shocked.

"What's going on? What happened to my brother?"

Before Zhou Chen had a chance to speak, Qiao Yicheng spoke first: "Sanli, we just went out to drink, me, him, and Qi Weimin, they were all drunk, I was the only one who could still drink, but they didn't want to drink with me, so I had to come back."

Qiao Sanli, who was originally very worried, couldn't help laughing in her heart when she heard what her elder brother said. Her elder brother must be really drunk.

Hearing the noise, Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei also ran over. They were shocked to see the drunk Qiao Yicheng. This was the first time they saw a drunk Qiao Yicheng.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Qiao Simei exclaimed.

In her impression, her elder brother is always stern and serious. This kind of elder brother really refreshed her three views.

Qiao Sanli said, "Don't worry about this for now, help big brother in quickly."

Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei both came over, took Qiao Yicheng from Zhou Chen, and helped him walk into the yard.

"Zhou Chen, don't go. I have wine at home. The old man hid the wine. I'll find it and we'll drink it all and piss the old man off to death."

The brothers and sisters of the Qiao family looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Brother, how much did you drink? Why are you so drunk?"

"Nonsense, I'm not drunk. You are Simei, and I know you. How could you be drunk? You are the one who worries me the most..."

"No way, big brother, you're already so drunk, and you're still lecturing me."

"..."

Seeing her second brother and sister helping her eldest brother into the house, Qiao Sanli breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Zhou Chen: "Why is my eldest brother so drunk? I have never seen him like this before. How much did you drink?"

Zhou Chen: "I really didn't drink much. It's mainly because your eldest brother has been suppressing his emotions for many years. He let it out all at once tonight and got drunk because he couldn't control himself. But don't worry, this is a good thing for him. If you keep everything in your heart, it will be easy for depression to accumulate. It will be relieved when it is released."

Qiao Sanli naturally believed what Zhou Chen said.

"Thank you for sending my brother back."

"Is it necessary for us to talk about this?"

Zhou Chen smiled, then took out two movie tickets from his pocket and handed one to Qiao Sanli.

"Here are the movie tickets I bought for tomorrow afternoon. Can we go together?"

Qiao Sanli blushed and felt shy, but she still took it: "Okay."

"Then it's settled. Tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock, you wait for me on the street and I'll pick you up."

Knowing that Qiao Sanli was shy, he did not suggest that they go together in Shamao Lane.

Qiao Sanli blushed and nodded: "Well, you drank too, right? Do you want me to make you some hangover soup? My dad hasn't come back yet."

Zhou Chen waved his hand and said, "No, I'm fine. You should hurry up and get some for your elder brother. He drank a lot today. I'll go back first. Don't forget tomorrow afternoon."

After saying goodbye to Qiao Sanli, Zhou Chen returned home. When he got home, he found that his mother Han Huifang had already returned.

"Mom, did you come back alone? Where's my dad?"

Han Huifang said, "Your dad had a dinner party. I knew you were back, so I didn't go with him. Let's drink. The water is ready. Go wash up."

"Thank you, Mom."

Zhou Chen has become accustomed to his mother's doting. Even though he is very busy with his career now, as long as he goes home, his mother will come back to cook for him as soon as possible.

He knew this was because, in Han Huifang's mind, he was more important than Chenxing Textile Factory.

The Zhou family has been rich for two or three years, but neither Zhou Jianguo nor Han Huifang has changed much. Their living conditions have improved, but they have not developed bad habits. Even though Zhou Jianguo has more dinner parties, most of the time he brings his wife along.

Money can easily corrupt people, but Zhou Chen is glad that his parents have not been corrupted by money and they are still as loving as before.

The night passed quickly.

When Qiao Yicheng woke up, he felt a severe headache. He rubbed his head and got up, only to find himself lying on Sanli's bed in the inner room.

"Why am I sleeping here?"

Ever since Sanli and Simei grew up, he basically never came back to sleep, and Erqiang slept in the main room outside. Even if he came back occasionally, he would squeeze into the bed with Erqiang.

He soon remembered that he had been drinking with Zhou Chen and Qi Weimin yesterday. He seemed to have gotten too drunk and said some things he shouldn't have said.

"Damn it, Qi Weimin and Zhou Chen must have laughed at me. I can't drink too much next time."

Thinking about how embarrassing he might have been yesterday, Qiao Yicheng looked annoyed. He didn't know what happened, as he lost control while drinking yesterday.

Just when I was worried, I saw Qiao Sanli walk in.

When Qiao Sanli saw her elder brother sitting up, she immediately said happily, "Brother, you're awake. How do you feel now? Does your head still hurt?"

Qiao Yicheng touched his head awkwardly, "It's okay, Sanli, it was Zhou Chen who sent me back yesterday, right?"

Qiao Simei suddenly ran out from behind Sanli and said, "Brother, you drank too much yesterday. Brother Zhou Chen sent you back home, but you insisted on dragging him home to continue drinking. You even said you wanted to take out the wine that Dad hid. Brother, you look so funny when you're drunk."

Qiao Yicheng looked at his two sisters and Erqiang who walked in. He felt embarrassed, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Really? I did drink a little too much yesterday."

Qiao Sanli: "Brother, the porridge is ready. Get up and wash up first. You should feel better after drinking some porridge later."

"Okay, I'll get up now."

Qiao Yicheng didn't want to embarrass himself in front of his brother and sister-in-law, so he quickly tidied himself up. When he finished washing and was ready to eat, he saw Qiao Zuwang staggering in from the door.

"Hey, isn't this my eldest son? Are you sober? I never knew you could get drunk."

Facing his father's sarcasm, Qiao Yicheng said indifferently: "Eat."

Seeing that his eldest son ignored him, Qiao Zuwang felt bored and went to sit down in his seat.

"Yicheng, I heard that you drank with that kid Zhou Chen and the eldest son of the Qi family yesterday?"

"Well, what happened?"

"Are you the only one drunk?"

Qiao Yicheng asked dissatisfiedly: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Qiao Zuwang smacked his lips and said, "What's your attitude? I'm your father, how can I harm you?"

"Who can be sure of that?"

Listening to the two people arguing, the other three lowered their heads and dared not say a word. Qiao Simei's eyes kept rolling.

Qiao Zuwang was thick-skinned enough to not care about his eldest son's sarcasm at all. He continued, "I am qualified to teach you about drinking. You will be working soon. Work is not just about doing work, but also about dealing with people. If you want to deal with people, you can't do without drinking. There is no problem between gentlemen that can't be solved by drinking."

"Yichen, let me tell you, if you want to improve your alcohol tolerance, you have to drink more. Buy more wine in the future and I will pass on my experience and drinking culture to you. This thing is to..."

Qiao Yicheng ignored his words and turned to look at Erqiang and Simei, asking, "Erqiang, Simei, has Sanli told you about your work?"

Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei nodded immediately: "Brother, my third sister told me that Zhou Chen asked us to work at their Chenxing Textile Factory. Is this true?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zuwang's face instantly turned green. Damn it, I even risked my reputation, but in the end, I didn't get my own job done, but my children's jobs were done.

This would have been a good thing, but when he thought about the opportunity he had gained by sacrificing himself, he couldn't stop feeling the pain in his teeth, heart, and head.

"That bastard from the Zhou family is not a decent person. If he wants to marry my Sanli in the future, I will have to pay him a lot of money."

But now none of the four brothers and sisters paid any attention to him.

Qiao Yicheng said: "It's true. Zhou Chen told me yesterday that he will take you and Erqiang to report to the factory tomorrow, and he will arrange jobs for you then."

"Yeah, that's great."

Qiao Simei immediately shouted with joy, and Qiao Erqiang also looked delighted.

Now everyone knows that Chenxing Textile Factory is a good place. Although Qiao Erqiang wants to be his master the most, he will naturally not refuse a good job. After all, a good job means making more money.
