Chapter 29 Work Arrangements

Just as dinner was about to start, Shen Yanhong returned home. She looked at the extra guests in the house with some surprise, wondering who they were.

It wasn't until she heard her mother say that this group of people had come to thank her third uncle and aunt, and had even given them two job openings, that Shen Yanhong was instantly consumed by jealousy.

This should have been her opportunity, so how did it become her third uncle and aunt's? This never happened in her past life! Where exactly did things go wrong?

During the meal, Shen Yanhong remained silent with a dark expression, and Grandma Shen glanced at her several times.

Tuantuan said to Jinran, "Sister, you're right, your grandma's cooking is super delicious."

Jinran replied with pride, "Right? I'll learn to cook from my grandma in the future, and when I'm done, I'll cook for you."

Tuantuan thought for a moment with a troubled expression, and said, "Sister, you're so good, why don't you not marry my brother? Wait for me to grow up, and I'll marry you."

Everyone laughed uncontrollably after hearing this; those two kids were just too funny.

"Woof woof~~" Does that mean I have to marry into that family too? No way!

Jinran: "Can you please stop adding drama to your life?"

After finishing their meal, the Qu family was about to leave. Before leaving, Uncle Qu said to Mr. Shen, "I'll save these two job openings for you. Come find me when the time comes."

Mr. Shen nodded with a simple, honest smile.

Mr. Qu nodded, then said to Grandpa Chen, "Grandpa, we'll be going now. If my dad knew that the person who saved Tuantuan was your child, he would be even happier. We've always heard my dad talk about your deeds."

Grandpa Shen waved his hand and said with a smile, "That's all in the past. I'm just lucky to be alive. It's not worth mentioning."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Qu was filled with respect, and his opinion of the Shen family rose even higher.

Tuantuan said goodbye to Jinran, "Sister, you have to wait for me to grow up, okay? I want to compete fairly with my brother. When I go back this time, I will seriously grow up."

Jinran, what exactly are you imagining in your little head?

After seeing the Qu family off, the eldest and second eldest sisters cleaned up the dishes. Seeing that everyone was still there, the eldest aunt couldn't help but ask, "Father, Mother, what kind of job arrangement is that in the county?"

Grandma Shen couldn't stand her eldest daughter-in-law's shallowness and said irritably, "Work? What does it have to do with you? Did you save someone? Or did you take them home? It's none of your business."

The aunt said somewhat awkwardly, "I was just thinking that we're all family."

My uncle squinted and said in a gruff voice, "You better shut up!"

Shen Yanhong said casually, "Actually, what my mother said makes sense. We are family, and when it comes to work, we should maximize our interests."

Jinran hugged Doujin and raised an eyebrow. She knew that possessing a treasure would attract wolves.

He gave another wicked smile.

The father said worriedly, "Daughter, are you sure you don't have a toothache? I've seen you sucking your cheeks several times."

Jinran: "That's a domineering CEO-style smile."

Ms. Wang Cuifen switched into battle mode, rattling off like a machine gun: "I think I understand now. You and your mother mean that giving this job to you is the fairest thing for the family? Why? Because you're shameless? What do the good deeds we do have to do with you? You shamelessly claim to maximize your own interests. Tell me, how do you mean to maximize your own interests?"

Shen Yanhong was speechless for a moment, but she still persisted, saying, "You adults can get full work points when you work in the fields, but the girls in our family can't get many work points either. It would be better to let the girls in our family work in the county. That way, they can find good husbands and help the family."

Both the eldest aunt and the second aunt were tempted by what they heard.

Jinran interjected, "Just say your name directly, stop beating around the bush."

Shen Yanhong: Shen Jinran is indeed annoying.

Wang Cuifen chuckled. "None of you need to covet this job. This is an opportunity for our third branch of the family. My husband and I have decided that the two of us will go to work in the county. Yan Hong, let me teach you something: when you ask someone for something, you should be prepared to be slapped in the face. I'm not your parents, and I won't indulge you."

Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen watched leisurely without saying a word, and Jinran had no idea what the old couple were thinking.
