Chapter 335: The More You Try to Hide, the More You Reveal
Jiang Dongli cleared his throat and said, "Luo Qiao, you heard what the doctor said just now. Thank you for today. If there’s ever anything that you need from the Jiang Family, just let us know."
Before Luo Qiao could reply with polite words, he turned to his wife, Qu Meimei, and said, "Meizi, go get the money."
They did indeed have that much money at home, prepared for buying ginseng. Qu Meimei quickly brought the money over.
Luo Qiao said, "Uncle, please hear me out. I gave away the spot you offered me. When I took it from you, I was too young and ignorant to realize how valuable that thing was.
I had intended to use it to repay a favor, but later I was told that an official work spot in the factory was worth five hundred yuan. Only then did I realize how valuable that approval slip actually was, and I was worried about how to repay your kindness."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Dongli hurriedly interjected, "Luo Qiao, let’s keep things separate. That approval slip might indeed be valuable and useful in the hands of someone who needs it.
But an approval slip is different from an official work spot. The slip can only be used by a temporary worker, essentially not as an official work spot, but as a way to transition from temporary to permanent employment.
I gave you that slip because it was a waste in my hands, so we really can’t settle it this way."
