Chapter 471 Gao Cheng!
In fact, the couple had taken Zhong Yuemin's advice a few years ago and bought a small courtyard house outside. However, it was far from their workplaces, so when they were busy with work, they would stay in the dormitory here for convenience and only return to the courtyard house on weekends to tidy it up and stay for a couple of days.
At this moment, Zheng Tong was engrossed in attacking the food on the table, shoveling rice at lightning speed, and two grains of rice accidentally splashed onto his glasses.
Why are you eating so fast? It's like you're in a battle!
Jiang Biyun picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks and put it in his bowl, feeling both sorry for him and amused.
"Didn't you eat breakfast? Slow down, eating so fast is bad for your stomach."
Zheng Tong mumbled a reply, his mouth full of food.
"I have class this afternoon and need to rush back. I only have an hour and a half of rest, so I have to hurry!"
"There's no rush, you can eat slowly." Jiang Biyun served him another bowl of soup.
About half an hour later, the two finally finished their meal. Jiang Biyun got up to clear the dishes, and Zheng Tong also stood up, moved closer to his wife, naturally put his arm around her waist, and nuzzled her cheek against his lips, his voice lowered and slightly affectionate.
"Stop cleaning up, the dishes aren't going anywhere, hurry up..."
Jiang Biyun understood her man's meaning perfectly well. Her face flushed with embarrassment, and she nudged him lightly with her elbow in a fit of shyness and annoyance.
"Are you trying to get yourself killed?! In broad daylight!"
I'm speechless. She was just feeling sorry for people who hadn't rested enough, but it turns out she was thinking about this kind of thing!
It softened again.
"Let's talk about it when we get back to the courtyard house this weekend. The soundproofing here isn't good, and people might hear us..."
"How can we wait until the weekend? A distant solution can't quench an immediate thirst..."
Zheng Tong continued working while whispering in his wife's ear.
"Besides, we're not getting any younger. We need to hurry up and have a child. Look at Haiyang, he got married much later than us, and his wife Liu Qian is already pregnant. We really need to get this going..."
While talking, he was also making inappropriate touching with his hands.
Jiang Biyun's heart softened at the words she heard, and these actions stirred her emotions; the rag she was holding unconsciously loosened its grip.
"Oh dear, you... go to the inner room."
Her body half-heartedly yielded, and as the atmosphere grew increasingly intense, just as they were about to take things further...
With a creak, the door was pushed open from the outside!
A head popped in, accompanied by an inappropriate male voice that acted as if he were no outsider.
"Oh, they're eating right now!"
The two were startled and jerked apart as if electrocuted. Jiang Biyun hurriedly straightened her rumpled clothes, her cheeks flushed red, and the ambiguous and romantic atmosphere they had just built up vanished instantly.
Zheng Tong was furious. When he looked up and saw it was his neighbor, he started yelling at him.
"Don't you know how to knock? Have you no manners? Do you think this is your own home?!"
The man who barged in was in his thirties and also taught at the school. His name was Gao Cheng. This wasn't the first time he'd barged in so brazenly, and he always acted as if it were perfectly natural and not at all like a stranger.
It's one thing if it happens once or twice, but if it happens every few days, even the most patient person can't stand it.
Gao Cheng, however, didn't feel embarrassed at all. With a smile on his face, he shook the half-bowl of dumplings he was holding.
"Oh dear, Teacher Zheng, Teacher Jiang, please don't be offended. I just didn't have any garlic at home. Dumplings without garlic just don't taste half as good."
"Teacher Jiang, do you have any garlic at home? I'd like to borrow two cloves."
Zheng Tong was so angry he wanted to lash out again, but Jiang Biyun quickly held him down, turned around and deftly plucked two garlic cloves from the braid hanging on the windowsill, handing them to Gao Cheng.
"Teacher Gao, here you go."
"Thanks, please continue, I won't bother you any longer!"
Gao Cheng took the garlic, turned around and left with a smile, considerately closing the door behind him, though not completely.
"Today I've truly learned what shamelessness means!"
Zheng Tong pointed at the still-shaking door panel, her chest heaving with anger, "What kind of people are these? Teachers, my foot! What freaks!"
"Okay, okay, calm down."
Jiang Biyun pushed him into the house and said:
"This Mr. Gao is actually a good person, and his teaching skills are quite high. The classes he teaches consistently rank among the top three in the grade on average."
That's just his personality; his behavior is a bit... well, it is a bit eccentric. School leaders and colleagues all know about this problem.
She paused, glanced at her man, and lowered her voice.
"Besides, it's your fault too, wanting to do that in broad daylight..."
What do you mean by blaming me?
Zheng Tong disagreed, and pushed up his glasses.
"I'm in my own home, I can hug and kiss my wife, who does that bother?"
Jiang Biyun rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.
"Alright, stop joking around. Go to the inner room, lie down on the bed for a while, take a nap, and when we go back to the courtyard house this weekend... I'll take good care of you then, okay?"
Zheng Tong looked frustrated and helpless, and sighed heavily. The little flame that had just been lit was extinguished by a bucket of cold water.
Poor little Zheng!

Next door, Gao Cheng's house.
The man was happily eating dumplings, one after another, while humming a little tune, when a knock came at the door.
"Who is it? The door's unlocked, come in!" Gao Cheng shouted without looking up.
The door was pushed open, and Gao Yue walked in from outside.
"elder brother!"
"Hey, Xiaoyue? What brings you here?"
Gao Chengjian was somewhat surprised to find out that it was his own younger sister.
"Have you eaten? I have some dumplings here, with cabbage and pork filling. Want some? There's still some in the pot."
"Well, okay."
Gao Yue didn't stand on ceremony. She put down her bag, washed her hands, and served herself a few dishes in a bowl.
After a while, the brother and sister sat facing each other at the small table, eating and chatting.
"Brother, I found a job."
Gao Yue swallowed the dumpling in her mouth and spoke as calmly as possible.
"That's great! What organization is it?" Gao Cheng asked.
"The resettlement office finally arranged a job for you, that's not easy!"
"It wasn't the resettlement office; a friend of mine helped me find it. It's a Hong Kong-funded trading company. The base salary is 500 yuan a month, and if you do well, with commissions and performance bonuses, you can earn over 1,000 yuan!"
"How much...how much?!"
Gao Cheng was so startled that his chopsticks trembled, and he spat out half a dumpling with a "pfft." His eyes widened like saucers.
"Over a thousand?! Xiaoyue, you...you weren't scammed, were you?!"
He's only in his fifties or sixties a month as a teacher!
Gao Yue didn't say much, and took out the contract.
"Look for yourself, it's written in black and white, it's very clear. If you don't want to work here anymore, you can leave anytime. Your sister isn't a child, she knows her limits."
