Chapter 1555 3 Lost Girl 62

Zhang Yuke had no idea about the Jiang family's actions, and had no idea that Jiang Lili was actually planning to let Cheng Jian get the information about the project from her.

If she knew, she would definitely curse the Jiang family's ancestors for eighteen generations. Did they really think of her as a soft persimmon?

But Zhang Yu is really busy now. He is extremely busy. Many things need to be rushed out before the Spring Festival, and one of them is gold futures, which is also what Zhang Yu is most concerned about.

Oh, there is one more thing, which is the year-end bonus. Although the company’s year-end bonus is paid on New Year’s Eve, everyone is asking roughly how much money will be given.

Everyone understands that the year-end bonus is mainly decided by the direct leader. Once the list is submitted, no changes will generally be made unless there are special circumstances.

Zhang Yu didn’t know whether other teams’ leaders would inform them of their year-end bonuses in advance, but for his team, Mike had already informed them of their respective bonus amounts early on.

According to Mike's idea, after telling everyone, everyone can better arrange the Spring Festival holiday.

The bonus is kept confidential as always. Although we can’t say how much the bonus is, we can tell it’s a lot from everyone’s happy expressions.

Zhang Yu was also in a good mood. She had originally thought that she would get a bonus of about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, since she had only joined the company in July and had not contributed much in the first few months.

Unexpectedly, there was a bonus of 50,000 yuan. Zhang Yu was very happy. Although she really didn't need these little things now, who would complain about having too much money?

Of course, Zhang Yu immediately shared the 50,000 yuan year-end bonus with his family.

Zhang's mother already knew that investment banking was really busy, overtime was the norm, and working more than ten hours a day was the norm, but the salary was really high.

The more Zhang's mother thought about it, the more she felt that her daughter made a lot of money, but she was really busy. After thinking for a long time, she said, "Mr. Zhang, I've made up my mind. I will go to S City to take care of my daughter on weekdays."

"I'll take the late train Thursday night and sleep all night before returning."

"I'll take the train to S City on Sunday night." The man is not good at taking care of himself, but the daughter is also busy.

Sometimes I would reply to messages sent at noon at around 7 or 8 in the evening. There was one time when I even replied to a message in the early morning, which meant I was busy until that time.

Occasionally, they would talk on the phone with Zhang Yu, but the call would end in a hurry, either because she had to go to a meeting or process data, or they could hear the tired tone in Zhang Yu's voice and they didn't want to let their daughter get tired.

"You should study hard these few days. I will stir-fry some vegetables and make the braised pork. You can eat it by yourself for a few days." Zhang's mother made arrangements quickly.

Father Zhang heard that his wife had already made arrangements and understood that the old woman had already made up her mind. What else could he do? "Okay."

Although he was not happy about it, there was nothing he could do. He really had no status at home. "Why don't you discuss it with your daughter?"

Since Zhang's father couldn't handle the matter, he immediately pushed the blame onto his own daughter.

Zhang's mother knew all the little tricks her husband was thinking. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "You really don't think I know what you're thinking."

"You just want your daughter to say no, and then you agree."

"You are alone at home, why can't you take care of me?" Zhang's mother said unhappily, "My daughter makes money and takes us out to play."

"We have lent out all our money. My daughter wants to buy a house in S City, but they just refuse to pay us back."

"If the family had a little money, would the daughter be willing to be so busy?" Zhang's mother felt that it was Zhang Yu who was a burden to the family, which made the little girl work so hard.

After Zhang's mother said this, Zhang's father was even more speechless. Compared with the children of his brothers and sisters, his own daughter was much more obedient and sensible.

"Also, I will tell my daughter about this during the Spring Festival, so don't tell her in advance." Zhang's mother knew that if she told Zhang Yu,

Father Zhang said, "Okay, I won't get involved in this matter." He still felt that his daughter would not agree.

"I informed her, not discussed it with her." Zhang's mother said domineeringly, "After discussing it with her, the result is very clear."

"Our daughter is so sensible." Zhang's mother was very excited when she thought of her daughter's 50,000 yuan bonus. "How come our daughter is so outstanding?"

"Your eldest brother and his brothers always talk about how outstanding their children are and how much money they earn. Humph, I don't think they earn more than 50,000 a year." Zhang's mother was very sure.

"By the way, don't tell anyone." Zhang's mother did not forget to remind her husband a few things.

Father Zhang was really at a loss for words, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, but you will."

"Don't provoke them into saying things they shouldn't." Zhang's father felt that it was his daughter-in-law who should keep the secret.

Zhang's mother rolled her eyes unceremoniously, "Ever since we asked for money, I've been worried about asking for money whenever I move around."

"But the Spring Festival is coming soon, and I guess they should be able to organize a dinner to ease the relationship." Zhang's mother knew that during the Spring Festival, they would definitely not skip the banquet at home. After all, she was a good cook and clean.

"This year, no matter who's family is hosting a dinner party, we will go there at dinner time." No matter whether it's her husband's family or her own family hosting a dinner party, she, as the guest, needs to go there in advance to help out.

From going shopping for groceries to selecting them, cooking and washing dishes, being a guest is no different from being the host.

When it's my family's turn to treat guests, who else will help besides the men and daughters?

"I'm really scared during the Spring Festival and other holidays." When someone invites her to a dinner party, it's the time when she's busy. Zhang's mother feels scared just thinking about it.

"Are we still going?" Zhang's father thought that Zhang's mother would not attend their party this year.

"I don't want to go, but if I don't go, I'm sure you'll start complaining about how bad our family is."

"I've thought about it. Our family is not short of that little money now. Let's treat them to dinner at a restaurant on Saturday night." Zhang's mother didn't want to treat them at first, but Zhang Yu brought it up.

"Our family always entertains guests outside. If they do, I won't go to help." Zhang's mother felt that Zhang Yu was right. If they needed to entertain guests, they should do so. They didn't need that little money.

"Didn't you say that eating out is expensive?" Zhang's father knew that his wife was very busy during every Chinese New Year, so he had made this suggestion a long time ago, but he couldn't always complain about the high prices to his own wife.

Zhang's mother really didn't want to talk to Zhang's father. "Eating out is expensive, but if my family has more money, wouldn't I want to relax a little?"

"My daughter said that there's no need to bother with something that can be done with a couple of thousand dollars."

"It's at the entrance of the community. I asked and they tell me the price is 500 yuan per table with no limit on alcohol and drinks. The menu is good." Mother Zhang handed the menu she brought back to Father Zhang.

"I just booked four tables."

"The boss said that each table will get one bottle of Coke and one bottle of Sprite, both large."

"Let's buy five bottles of white wine, a few dozen or so will do, and then some red wine and yellow wine, and we'll be done."

Zhang's mother calculated, "Three thousand."

Father Zhang knew that entertaining guests outside would be expensive, but when he heard that it would cost about three thousand, his hands couldn't help but tremble.

“You want so much?”

"Don't worry, my daughter said she would pay for it and gave me 5,000 yuan." She knew that her man was reluctant to spend the money.

"My daughter's money is not money." Zhang's father was still reluctant to give it away, but there was nothing he could do since his wife had always been the one in charge of the family.

Now that his daughter is on her side again, Zhang's father said helplessly that he is the weaker party.
