"What? Something happened to Ah Ling?"

Zhou Cunming listened to his mother's accusations without refuting them, but when he heard that his twin sister had been in danger and almost lost her life, his face was full of worry.

"What happened? What's wrong with Ah Ling?"

"What else could it be? You're never home, what have you been up to?"

Chen Suwen grabbed his ear and questioned him, "Even if this kid wants to become a son-in-law of the Li family, he should at least care about his family, right?"

"And where did you go last night, kid?"

These days, you need a letter of introduction to go anywhere. Even if you don't need one in the county town, you definitely need one to stay at a hotel there.

This kid didn't bring a letter of introduction. Where did he go last night?

"Oh? I'm staying at my friend's house."

Zhou Cunming explained to his mother that he had spent the whole day in the county town yesterday but hadn't found any job opportunities. He came back late and stayed at a friend's house in the commune.

His friend's family lived in the commune and were quite well-off. Their house was large with many rooms, and his older brother, who was in the army, was not at home, so there were spare rooms for him to stay in.

Anyway, Zhou Cunming wasn't a suspicious person, and he didn't need a letter of introduction to stay at his friend's house, which is why he didn't go home yesterday.

Chen Suwen frowned as she listened to his explanation. "Have you found a job? You're never home. What use are you?"

"You don't even earn work points, all you do is wander around the city all day. Are you bored and have too much time on your hands?"

Although her whole family had been from the countryside her whole lives, and her children no longer needed to go to the countryside, she was still very unhappy that Zhou Cunming was shirking his duties and delaying his earning of work points.

"Hehe, Mom, I actually found a job opportunity in the city." Zhou Cunming smiled obsequiously at his mother, but his expression told him that what he was about to say might displease her.

Chen Suwen released his ear and frowned at him.

This kid, he wouldn't tell her he wants to marry into someone else's family and become a live-in son-in-law, would he?

In his past life, this guy "married" into the Li family and became their live-in son-in-law. In this life, will he "marry" into the Li family again for the sake of his job?

She didn't care, but at that time her whole family lived in Guangming Brigade, and a third of the people in this brigade were surnamed Zhou, related to her family and from the same clan.

Can they accept Zhou Cunzong, a member of their clan, becoming a son-in-law who lives with someone else's family?

Chen Suwen stared at the guy, raised her chin, and said, "Alright, tell me, what kind of job did you find?"

"Hehe, Mom, the job I found is as a driver for a transport team. I can learn a lot from the experienced drivers."

"And as you know, the transport team has connections in places where they can't get through, so they can exchange for other things."

Zhou Cunming didn't explain it very clearly, but Chen Suwen understood what he meant.

The drivers of the transport team drive to different places, where they can exchange goods with people and earn some extra money.

Zhou Cunming in his previous life was the same.

Zhou Cunming's father-in-law, Li Cheng, earned extra money while driving a sports car, and he only had one daughter, Li Yulan, so the whole family lived a very comfortable life.

Later, Zhou Cunming married Li Yulan and drove cars with Li Cheng, earning a lot of money.

The fact that this guy was able to start a logistics company so quickly after the market opened up was because he had accumulated savings over the years.

Chen Suwen crossed her arms and nodded, clearly not as tall as her son but with an air of superiority. "You said yourself that you're a driver for the transport team. How could such a position possibly be given to you?"

"Can you drive? Can you fix a car? If you encounter a robbery while driving, do you have the ability to ensure your own safety, as well as the safety of your vehicle and the cargo on it?"

"Besides, jobs in the city are all filled by one person per position. How can a country bumpkin like you, who has nothing to offer, compete with city people?"

But she didn't know what the job market was like in the city.

She was a city dweller in her past life.

Those jobs in the city are rarely filled by people from the countryside. The reason Zhou Qingyun and she were able to pass the exam in their previous life was entirely because of the turmoil in their early years, when they took advantage of the chaos to have an opportunity.

With society stable now, where are there so many opportunities to snag a bargain?

Zhou Cunming wants a job as a transport team driver, but only if he is a demobilized soldier can a country boy like him get a job in the city.

Chen Suwen looked her son up and down. The eighteen-year-old boy was full of youthful energy, and the tall and strong boy looked very spirited.

Chen Suwen frowned slightly as she looked at him, "Do you want to join the army?"

Chen Suwen had no sons serving in the military, and not even her grandsons served in the military.

Even her grandson from her previous life, Song Chen, the son of Song Che and Zhou Ling, did not join the army after growing up. Instead, like his mother, he entered a key university with his high IQ and later joined a classified research unit.

Song Qing is quite remarkable. Like her brother, she also pursued a career in scientific research, unlike her father who joined the army.

As for other grandchildren, there are none.

Zhao Lexin was a smart girl, and she later became a scientist in a classified unit. I rarely saw her after that.

Zhou Mingye became an athlete, participated in several Olympic Games and won glory for the country. After retiring, he went into business and did not join the army.

Zhou Xian, Zhou Mei, Zhou Shan, Zhou Hu, Li Yao, Zhou Qiong, and others—none of these people joined the military.

However, Yu Xiaotian, whom Chen Suwen had once helped and secretly sponsored, performed exceptionally well. After graduating from high school, she was admitted to a military academy and later joined the army.
