"You have money?" Ning Hong raised an eyebrow.

It wasn't that he looked down on the female lead, but rather that she had only just gotten married. Even if she became incredibly wealthy in the future, it wasn't now.

Moreover, although Zhang Jing's family is wealthier than An Mingyi's, his widowed mother is not someone to be trifled with.

"This job was bought for Zhang Jing," Cui Xiao said, pursing her lips.

Actually, no, she bought it for herself. If Zhang Jing and the others ask about it later, she can say that her aunt helped her find it.

She'd had enough of farm work; she wanted to go to the city, get a government-subsidized food ration, and become a city dweller. As for the possibility of being laid off, she wasn't afraid. Being at the forefront of society, she naturally had more time to change her situation.

Besides, she has a WeChat group for red envelopes, so there's absolutely no need for her to live in the countryside. Even if a drought comes, she won't be afraid.

Of course, since she went to great lengths to marry Zhang Jing, Zhang Jing would definitely go with her. As for the rest of the Zhang family, Cui Xiao snorted and decided to forget about them.

She had a hard life in her past life, and in her limited memories, she always thought Ning Xiaoyu was doing quite well. She just couldn't understand how Ning Xiaoyu could tolerate such a terrible in-law family.

However, she was unwilling to divorce Zhang Jing.

Zhang Jing is sure to rise to prominence in the future, and she is not willing to miss such an opportunity.

"I refuse!"

"What? You still insist that Zhang Jing come and talk to us personally? Are you still being sexist? We have gender equality now, and women can hold up half the sky too."

"No, I have no intention of selling this job."

Ning Hong glanced at her, puzzled.

“I have a sister, a brother-in-law, and cousins. Why would I sell this job?” Ning Hong was inclined to give it to An Mingyi, as the job was quite good and had a promising future.

If An Mingyi works hard, his life will only get better once he becomes the team leader.

Ning Hong thought to herself.

Cui Xiao was displeased. "You want to give the job to An Mingyi? How can that be?"

How could she give the job to An Mingyi? What if An Mingyi used this job to advance his career and live a good life? How could she be willing to accept that?

An Mingyi deserves to live a life of poverty and hardship, and so does Ning Xiaoyu. Why should she be able to live a better life than her?

"Here's what I'll do: I'll give you six hundred yuan, and you give me your job."

Cui Xiao said matter-of-factly. At this time of year, six hundred yuan is no small sum.

Even for workers, a month's salary is only around thirty.

Cui Xiao immediately asked for six hundred, which was almost two years' wages for a worker.

She didn't think Ning Hongze would refuse. Now that disaster was imminent, with this six hundred yuan, they could buy more food or daily necessities, which was definitely more worthwhile than holding onto their jobs.

After all, not everyone has access to red envelope groups.

"Besides, you wouldn't feel comfortable letting your brother-in-law go into the city alone, would you? After seeing so much of the city's prosperity, his mind might waver. People's hearts change, and if An Mingyi changes his mind, then you'll lose both your wife and your army."

"If a job can test An Mingyi's heart, then it's worth it." Ning Hong didn't want to say any more to Cui Xiao and turned to leave.

Hearing Ning Hong say this, Cui Xiao stomped her feet in anger.

Ning Hongze must be out of her mind! If she weren't, how could she do something like this?

Using a job to test people's hearts?

Ning Hong also considered that she might as well go to work in the city.

If I work in the city, I'll have money and ration coupons, and I'll give it all to Xiaoyu then.

But thinking about it, if he went to the city, he would be quite a distance from Xiaoyu.

Moreover, city jobs are nine-to-five, with no flexible hours.

After thinking it over, he went to An Mingyi's house to ask for An Mingyi's opinion.

If An Mingyi wants to go, then let him go.

When she heard that she could go to work in the city, An's mother's eyes lit up instantly.

"Mingyi, go, you must go! This is an opportunity your older brother found for you, you absolutely cannot miss it."

An Mingyi didn't speak, but instead lowered his head and thought for a while.

"No, brother, I'm not going."

"Mingyi, are you crazy? Such a good opportunity!" Mother An almost wanted to point her finger at him and yell at him.

Does she not want to work in the city? Does she want to spend her whole life toiling in the north? How could she have given birth to such a foolish son?

"Mom, it's not that I don't want to go, but if I go to the city, I won't have anything, and I won't be able to take you and Xiaoyu with me. I'm worried about leaving you two at home."

"What's there to worry about? Do you think I'll bully your wife? Besides, there's your brother-in-law here. If anything happens, I'll just ask him for help."

Upon hearing his mother's words, An Mingyi's face flashed with embarrassment for a moment.

His mother's words were far too self-evident.

My brother has his own things to do too.

"Mingyi, listen to me, go quickly."

"Mom, listen to me."

An Mingyi sighed, "The drought is coming soon. If I stay in the countryside, I still have a yard full of sunflowers to eat. But if I go to the city, there won't be any rice to eat. Even if the government distributes rice, it definitely won't be enough for me."

"We can send you food."

"Mother An said hesitantly."

"The road is so dangerous. By then, everyone will be starving. Your food will probably be stolen before it even reaches the road. Whether you can save your life is still a question."

"Besides, there's also my brother-in-law, what about him...?"

"mom."

An Mingyi gave a soft shout. "Come with me." He reached out and grabbed An's mother's wrist, pulling her aside.

"do what?"

"My brother got me a job, and you still have to go to all this trouble for him. Don't you think that's a bit excessive? Besides, if my brother gets into danger, how will you face Xiaoyu, and how will I face Xiaoyu?"

"I'm doing this all for your own good."

Mother An said unhappily, "They say that once you marry a wife, you forget your mother. Right now, you only have Xiaoyu in your heart and eyes. Where is I?"

"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about again? If you don't like Xiaoyu, fine, I'll divorce her right away, how about that?"

"You brat, you're just trying to provoke me," Mother An sneered.

Divorce is out of the question.

"I'm not trying to provoke you, I'm just being obedient." An Mingyi held his mother's hand. "Besides, even if I have food, the others in the city don't. What if they try to take my food?"

An's mother was completely convinced.

Yes, city people aren't as simple and honest as village people.

An Mingyi refused, so Ning Hong took his job offer to her uncle's house.

There are many cousins ​​in my uncle's family, but he only has one letter of introduction, so it's impossible for him to give a place to each family.

We can only let them discuss it themselves.
