Lin Qinghua was a talkative person. Since Lin Xiaoxiao and Zhou Cuifen sat in the back, he had one less person to talk to. Halfway through the journey, he couldn't stand it any longer and stopped the car on the side of the road.

Lin Xiaoxiao and Zhou Cuifen thought the car had broken down, and they stood up and asked, "Why did it stop?"

"Xiaoxiao, come sit in the front." Lin Qinghua said directly: "I'm driving alone, and there's no one to talk to. It's so boring."

He was originally a talkative person, but since he started this job, he runs around everywhere every day, and apart from the sound of the diesel engine, he really can't hear any other sound.

Lin Xiaoxiao was amused by her words, "Don't you usually run alone? Why don't you feel bored?"

Lin Qinghua looked innocent. "That's because no one said anything. There's nothing we can do about it. Aren't you riding in the car this time?"

"I still have to look after Naibao. If you're bored, let Cuifen sit in the front and chat with you." Lin Xiaoxiao said.

Zhou Cuifen opened her mouth to refuse when she heard this, but Lin Qinghua spoke before her.

"Forget it! I'd better keep it to myself!"

After saying that, he started the diesel engine and continued driving the tricycle.

This time Zhou Cuifen was a little unhappy and snorted, "What kind of person is this? He still despises me. I didn't even say that I didn't want to talk to him."

"That's just his temper."

Lin Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

Zhou Cuifen didn't take it to heart at first, and the matter was quickly forgotten.

The car soon arrived at the village. Lin Xiaoxiao and Zhou Cuifen got off the car at the village entrance, while Lin Qinghua rode a tricycle back home.

Lin Xiaoxiao took Naibao to the new house. When Lin Feng and Lin Rui saw Lin Xiaoxiao coming back, they put down what they were doing. Lin Xiaoxiao saw that both of them were sweating profusely, so she quickly picked up the towel next to her and wiped their sweat.

"Big Brother, Second Brother, both of you wash your hands and stop busying yourself. I have something important to tell you when I get back."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng and Lin Rui looked at each other and lost the mood to work. They washed their hands and went home with Lin Xiaoxiao.

…

Zhou Cuifen had also arrived home at this time. Zhang Xiu was collecting clothes in the yard. When he saw Zhou Cuifen come back and hang the clothes on the clothesline, he hurriedly asked.

"Cui Fen, you're back? Have you looked for jobs in the city? How's it going? Are you up for it?"

"I can do it."

Zhou Cuifen was in a good mood and had long wanted to find someone to share her joy.

"Mom, Xiaoxiao said that I have to live in the city from now on. I'll pack my things and go to the city with her tomorrow."

"Then I'll cook dinner early and clean up after dinner." Zhang Xiu said happily.

Seeing Zhang Xiu so happy, Zhou Cuifen said again: "Mom, guess how much does Xiaoxiao pay me per month?"

"How many?"

Zhang Xiu looked excited.

"Twenty-one months, with food and lodging provided." Zhou Cuifen gestured with her hands and said, "Xiaoxiao said that if you do well in the future, you can get a raise."

"Oh my, twenty yuan a month!" Zhang Xiu slapped her thigh happily, "The teacher in our village doesn't even make that much a month."

"Xiaoxiao said that the salary calculation will start today."

"I knew Xiaoxiao was very generous," Zhang Xiu said with a smug look on her face. "Look, you listened to me back then, and it was right, wasn't it? If you hadn't listened to me, how could you have this job now?"

"Didn't I just listen to you?" Zhou Cuifen said.
