“He Shenghui is not a good person, so it’s better to keep an eye on him in the factory where he can’t do much harm. Besides, being a warehouse manager has no future, and the Industry and Commerce Bureau is actually a good position, I wouldn’t let that guy get the benefit.” 

Gu Ye still didn’t understand, his wife should be saying the opposite, right? How could the Industrial and Commerce Bureau be a good unit? 

Chu Qiao smiled slyly, “Let’s have a bet, in another 20 years, the Industrial and Commerce Bureau, the Tax Bureau, and some other units will become good units, it’s the ones that will be highly sought after, everyone will be fighting so desperately to get in there, and they will be way better than the factory.” 

When she had an accident in the previous life, there was a nationwide craze for taking the civil service exam. 

Such units like the Industrial and Commerce Bureau, Taxation Bureau, Public Security Bureau, and Judicial Bureau had all become ‘golden rice bowls’, with recruitment ratios as high as several thousand to one. The competition was fierce, but there were still many people competing to apply for a spot. 

Meanwhile, the factories like the machine tool factory, the ones that once considered stable jobs, had become undesirable and faced financial trouble, which was incomparable to civil service jobs. 

Gu Ye was half believing and half doubting. The machine tool factory was now a good unit that everyone wanted to work for, and his wife actually said that it wouldn’t be able to be compared with the Industrial and Commerce Bureau in the future? 

How could it be possible? 

“Qiao Qiao, how did you know?” Gu Ye’ eyes deepened. 

In fact, he had noticed that something was wrong with Chu Qiao a long time ago. 

Not only did Tang Yaozu have doubts, but he also had doubts. 

Chu Qiao used to live in the countryside, with a domineering and vicious aunt, and a cowardly uncle. It was impossible to educate Chu Qiao properly, as having enough food was already considered good enough. So, where did Chu Qiao learn those skills? 

Qiao Qiao told Old Tang that they were taught by a music teacher, but Gu Ye didn’t quite believe it.  

Rural music teachers themselves didn’t have much talent, they might even not know sheet music, so how could they teach Qiao Qiao? 

There was also Qiao Qiao’s superb cooking skills, she could cook dishes from many places, and her mastery of dough was even more remarkable. 

There were not many southerners who could make dough well, and even some professional chefs didn’t know how to make it. So, where did Qiao Qiao learn it?  

It was absolutely impossible for He Jihong to teach her, this old woman herself couldn’t make it. 

Chu Qiao’s obsession with the property ownership also made Gu Ye have doubts. 

Chu Qiao’s heart skipped a beat, her mind in turmoil. 

How could she explain this? 

She definitely couldn’t tell him about her reincarnation. She didn’t want to scare Gu Ye. 

After thinking for a moment, Chu Qiao had an idea and said, “I…… I’m actually dreaming about it, do you believe it?” 

Gu Ye’s expression was stunned, a vanished dream*? 

*A vanished dream [黄粱一梦] (idiom): it means a dream as a yellow millet meal cooks, and was originally understood as ‘life is but a dream’. It reminded people of how fleeting wealth and status are, dreamlike illusions that quickly vanish. Now, it is used as a metaphor to indicate that illusion can never be regarded as reality.  

Chu Qiao swallowed her saliva and continued, “In July, I was in the heat and had a high fever, almost dying. When I was in a daze, I had a long dream, just like watching a movie, where many people and things appeared. I spent my whole life in my dream and learned a lot of things. You may not believe it, but I really learned those in my dream.” 

Actually, Chu Qiao herself couldn’t distinguish whether she was reborn or had a long dream. 

Let’s just treat her previous life as a dream. 

Gu Ye’s expression became solemn, “Did you also learn how to cook in your dreams?” 

“Yes, well, that dream was very long. I learned many things and also knew a lot of things, such as the machine tool factory going bankrupt, the Industrial and Commerce Bureau becoming a good unit, and the houses in Shanghai becoming increasingly expensive. The ten-room house we bought will be worth tens of millions in the future.” 

Chu Qiao whispered, feeling a little aggrieved. She didn’t want Gu Ye to think she was a freak. 

Gu Ye’s heart softened and felt very regretful, he should not doubt his wife. 

Having dreams that offer insight was nothing new, in ancient times, there was also a similar one of ‘a vanished dreams’.  

His wife was a little fairy, maybe it was God who gave her the blessing, to make his wife rich!
