Chapter 22 Work
That day, Yang Jinsheng rushed into the yard on his bicycle, stepped on the brakes, parked the bike downstairs, and went upstairs quickly.
"Hey, why did Yang Jinsheng go upstairs without locking his car? Doesn't he treasure his car very much?"
"Who knows? He might be in a hurry. Besides, he's in our yard, so he won't get lost."
On the second floor, Yang Jinsheng called out softly as soon as he entered the room, "Xiaobai, Xiaobai, are you home?"
Jiang Xinbai was dreaming. In her dream, she was eating a big chicken drumstick, which made her mouth greasy and satisfied. Yang Jinsheng's shout completely woke her up from her sweet dream and made her very angry.
"Yang Jinsheng, what are you doing? My chicken legs are gone."
Yang Jinsheng looked at the suspicious saliva on the corner of his wife's mouth and snickered, "Xiaobai, you are dreaming. You are so greedy. I will take you to eat meat buns this Sunday. Now I have something serious to tell you. I heard that there is a temporary job for sale in the canteen of the textile factory. It's to wash vegetables and serve dishes. Do you think it's okay?"
Upon hearing about the job, Jiang Xinbai sobered up instantly. She grabbed her husband's hand and asked about the details carefully. Then she was a little disappointed. "Two hundred and sixty is a bit expensive, and you can't get a permanent residence. The salary is only 18 yuan a month. It will take more than a year to make a profit, and I still have to eat expensive food. The most important thing is that we only have two hundred and sixty yuan in savings. If we buy this job, it will be gone. Forget it, it's not safe."
Jiang Xinbai thought about it and finally refused reluctantly. The most important thing at the moment was to solve her household registration problem. Otherwise, when she had a child, the household registration would be with the mother, and there would be no food supply or even milk powder. Then she would have more things to spend money on.
Yang Jinsheng thought about it and sighed, "Forget it, washing vegetables in the cafeteria is also very painful in winter, we will see."
I only make twenty-five dollars a month, and I pay fifteen dollars for food every month, so I only have ten dollars left. Oh, life is so hard.
"Okay, since you don't want it, I'll go back to the factory first. The bicycle is broken, so I just threw it downstairs. I have to go and check it out quickly." Yang Jinsheng jumped up and rushed out.
But Yang Jinsheng was not the only one who was thinking of buying a job. Yang Jinqiang and Li Huifen had already been planning on it for a long time, but they were just short of money.
So, the Yang family meeting began again.
Yang Fugui raised his chin and said to his eldest son, "Jinqiang, don't you have something to say? Hurry up and say it. I'm exhausted after a day's work."
Yang Jinsheng and Jiang Xinbai looked at each other and suddenly had a bad feeling. Jiang Xinbai subconsciously pressed his pocket, wondering if he wanted to borrow money or something.
"Ahem, well, I'll just say it straight. I found a job for your sister-in-law. It's a formal one, but it's not very financially sound, so I was thinking of you..." After saying that, he deliberately glanced at his third brother. He knew that his third brother and his wife were rich, or at least his third brother's wife was rich.
Yang Jinsheng didn't react when he heard his elder brother talking about work, but when he heard it was a formal job, his heart skipped a beat. He swallowed and said, "Brother, what kind of job? How much does it cost?"
Yang Jinqiang thought his third brother had given in, so he said happily: "I worked as a waiter in a state-owned restaurant, and he was going to join the army, so I thought of selling my job. The asking price is 550 yuan, but the salary is only 22 yuan a month, and it will be back in more than two years. It's a good deal." In fact, the main reason is that formal jobs are not easy to find. Most people pass their jobs to their children and will only sell them when they have no choice. Even then, the sale cannot be open, and the job can only be handed over under the guise of being a relative.
After listening to his elder brother, Yang Jinsheng turned around and looked at Jiang Xinbai. The two of them had two words in their eyes: "interception."
Li Huifen raised her head proudly, "Mom and Dad, you know this opportunity is rare. Jinqiang and I don't have any other ideas. We just want to make more money so that we can honor you in the future. So, you see..."
Anyway, I will definitely live with my parents-in-law when they get old, so it is necessary to please her as the eldest daughter-in-law in advance. It will be good for everyone if she has a job, right?
"And Jinwei, Jinsheng, this is a big event for our family, you all have to do your part, especially Jinsheng, you have the ability, you should do more." Li Huifen didn't think there was anything wrong with her words. She was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Yang family, and everyone would have face if she had a job.
Yang Xiumin hid behind the door, listening to her sister-in-law's words, and couldn't help rolling her eyes. Her sister-in-law was really good at calculating. Fortunately, she had no money, otherwise she would have had a seat at this meeting.
Sun Erni glanced at her husband, exhaled, and asked, "How much do you have? Don't tell me you only have 80, or I'll beat you up."
Yang Jinqiang chuckled twice and replied, "No, that's not possible. We have saved 180 yuan, so we're still a little short." For work reasons, he even went to his father-in-law's house and managed to get back 50 yuan. He would find a way to get the rest back. From then on, he would manage the family's money by himself to avoid taking it to his father-in-law's house.
"Brother, the difference is too big. You earn 550 yuan from work and 180 yuan from savings, which means a difference of 370 yuan. You are too ambitious. As your younger brother, I can't help you." Yang Jinwei refused as soon as he opened his mouth. If he had the money, why didn't he buy a job for his wife?
"Hey, Jinwei, I'm your eldest brother, how can you talk like that? Mom and dad are here, is it appropriate for you not to help?"
"That's right. We're all family. Is it fun to be so fussy?" Li Huifen also spoke up.
"And you, Jinsheng, what do you and your wife say? My sister-in-law knows that you have money in your pocket. Lend it to me first. When I get my salary, I will pay you five yuan every month. It won't take long to pay it back, okay?" Li Huifen glanced at Yang Jinsheng and his wife who were watching the fun nearby and immediately asked to borrow money.
Yang Jinsheng smiled and said, "Look at what my sister-in-law said. My brother is right. We are all family and we should always help each other.
However, I have a problem here. I have found a job for Xiaobai, in the canteen of a textile factory, with a salary of 260 yuan, but it is a temporary job, so I am short of money here, but not much, just 100 yuan. How about you lend it to us first, sister-in-law? After all, we are short of money, and it is easy to get it together. It is so difficult for us. Xiaobai has to eat expensive food. Sister-in-law, we are all family, please be kind."
