Aunt Wang was surprised:

"Is it so exaggerated?"

The captain lit up a pipe and said:

"That's because you don't know. It's even more exaggerated than this. Not to mention the people in Chang County, if Lin Zhiqing's job was released, if people in Harbin knew about it, there would be many people willing to buy it!"

Aunt Wang was even more surprised. From Harbin? He was from the city, but he was willing to come to their small place for a job!

Aunt Wang was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time and said:

"Ha, it shouldn't be that serious. After all, I am a city dweller!"

The captain affirmed:

"Then you don't know how many jobs are needed in the city right now. Besides, although Lin Zhiqing's job is in the commune, he is a serious clerk, not a worker!"

"Besides, there is a difference between being an officer and being an employee. Although Lin Zhiqing's job is a bit tiring, it is very rewarding!"

"Remember that Yu Hao from before? He always came back to steal our stuff!"

"It's Veterinarian Lao Zheng. He doesn't want our stuff, but every time we treat animals, we always bring back something for them!"

"Let's not talk about anything else. Every time Lin Zhiqing went to the Dongmen Production Team, did you ever see his in-laws let him go empty-handed?"

"What's wrong with the people of Harbin? They don't lack money or tickets, so they don't need to eat!"

Aunt Wang sighed:

"Lin Zhiqing cares about me too much, old man. You don't know that Lin Zhiqing wanted to sell this job to me for 600 yuan at the beginning!"

The captain said anxiously:

"You didn't agree, right? We can't take advantage of the child like this. The tickets, salary, benefits, etc. that this job gives us for a year are worth at least 500 yuan if not 600 yuan. We can't do it at this price!"

Aunt Wang comforted the captain and said:

"You're in a hurry. Am I the one who takes advantage of others?"

The captain really wanted to answer "yes" with affirmative answer, you have never suffered any loss in the team!

Aunt Wang and the captain have been married for so many years, how could she not know the reason for his expression?

Aunt Wang glared at the captain and said:

"How can I be the same as the people in the team? If I am not stronger than them, and you are too generous as the captain, our family will be ruined by the borrowed house!"

"How can Lin Zhiqing be the same as those people? When they work for us, they always favor us and are afraid that we will suffer losses!"

"I'm not that ignorant, how can I take advantage of someone else's child?"

It's true. The captain's family lives well. It's not so much that he earns money as the team leader, but rather that Aunt Wang's family is well managed!

After all, the captain is in charge of the entire team, and he has to make decisions on all the gossips. It's actually quite busy!

But the three children in the family are all well educated, this is all thanks to Aunt Wang’s education!

This proves the old saying that marrying a good wife can bring prosperity to the family!

The captain quickly begged for mercy:

"I know how much you've contributed to our family. You are the biggest contributor to our good life!"

"What did you say to Lin Zhiqing? How much money did you give to the child?"

Aunt Wang continued:

"I said I would give her 1,200 yuan, but Lin Zhiqing disagreed and even said thank you for protecting her. I defended her outside and said 800 yuan was the most I could get!"

"I told her that if the price was less than 1,000 yuan, she would not buy it, and she finally agreed!"

Although 1,000 yuan is still a low amount, it is a small amount given by Lin Zhiqing out of consideration for our relationship, so it is also within a reasonable range!

The captain breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Okay, when Lin Zhiqing leaves, bring some more mountain products with you. Even though they are not worth much, we appreciate your kindness!"

Aunt Wang thought for a moment and said:

"You don't need to bring too much. It's hard to carry them with two kids on the road. I'll write to you later and ask for more. If they run out of food, it will be convenient for us to send more!"

"Although mountain products are not valuable here, I heard that tickets are required to buy everything in the city, so mountain products are rare!"

The captain agreed:

"You've thought it through. Let's do it this way!"

When the family was having dinner in the evening, Aunt Wang told Wang Qingmiao and Wang Dashu and his wife about this!

Wang Qingmiao was naturally very happy. She said incoherently:

"Really? Really? Am I really going to take over Lin Zhiqing's job? Am I going to be an official in the commune?"

Wang Dashu was also happy for Wang Qingmiao and said:

"That's great. If Qingmiao goes to work as an official in the commune, he will become a city dweller and can also eat the rationed food. He won't have to worry about anything in the future!"

Wang Dashu's wife was a sensible person. She thought for a moment and asked:

"Dad, Mom, how much does this job cost? Do we have enough money? If not, Dashu and I still have some. Let's buy a job for Qingmiao first. This is a serious matter!"

Aunt Wang would not hide this matter and alienate her son and daughter-in-law from the family. She said directly:

"Originally, Lin Zhiqing asked for 600 yuan, but your father and I disagreed. We couldn't take advantage of him so much. After much persuasion, Lin Zhiqing agreed to take 1,000 yuan!"

"Your father and I have more than 600 yuan, which should have been divided among you three siblings, but Qingmiao is in urgent need of money, so let's give it to her first. Later, your father and I will save up more money and give more to you and Xiaoshu!"

"I'm going to ask your uncles for the missing 400 yuan. I think we can get it together!"

Wang Dashu said anxiously:

"Mom, what are you talking about? Qingmiao is still my sister. We don't care about the money you and dad earn. We will give it to Qingmiao. What are you talking about?"

Wang Dashu's wife also said:

"Mom, it's so formal for our family to say this. Dashu and I have saved more than 200 yuan in total. We'll keep the change for emergencies. We'll send the 200 yuan to you tomorrow. We have it at home, so we don't need to use other people's money!"

"I still need 200 yuan. I'll go ask my parents first. My parents' home is nearby and it's convenient to go there!"

"Although Lin Zhiqing will definitely not sell his job to someone else just because someone else offers a high price, but the price our family paid to Qingmiao for the job was not high in the first place, so there is no guarantee that there won't be someone who does bad things!"

"Let's hurry up to avoid unnecessary complications and also give Lin Zhiqing less trouble!"

What Wang Dashu's wife said made sense. Aunt Wang and the team leader had also thought of this, otherwise they wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to borrow money from Aunt Wang's uncle's house!

With the captain's prestige in the team, it's not impossible for the team to raise 400 yuan by borrowing some!

What the daughter-in-law said was reasonable and she really cared about the family. Aunt Wang was very moved and said:

"It is a blessing for our family that Dashu married you!"

"You don't need to take the lead in this matter. Tomorrow, your mom and your dad will go to your in-laws' house and ask them!"
