The bride price for a daughter is kept at her parents' home, it would be shameful if it got out.
If one daughter gets a job and brings benefits home, she will be treated harshly against the other unemployed daughter who is about to work for her family. It will be even more shameful if the news gets out.
Liu Chunhua is smart. She didn't mention the betrothal gift to you. She said that the third sister worked hard and her hands were red from exhaustion. She also said that the third sister's arms were sore. As an elder sister, you have been lying at home all day. Don't you feel sorry for your younger sister?
If this news gets out, where will Jiang Xing put her face?
Jiang Xing fell down and got up to cook.
Liu Chunhua pulled Jiang Zao to sit down and fanned him with a palm-leaf fan: "How are you doing at the food factory? Are you tired from work? Do you have good relationships with your colleagues?"
Liu Chunhua asked, and Jiang Jun pricked up his ears to listen.
He was seventeen years old and had one year left before graduation. His mother told him privately that his third sister should either give him a job or get him a job in a food factory.
While other classmates were worried about their jobs and afraid to go to the countryside, he had already found a job.
When his third sister gets married, he can also get the betrothal money from the Xiao family.
After graduation, he will have a stable job and enough money to marry a wife, so he can raise his requirements for his partner.
The original criteria were: the other person had to be of average appearance, have a city hukou (not the only option, wealthy rural residents were also acceptable), have a good personality, have few brothers in the family, and be able to bring back some of the betrothal gifts given out.
His conditions and requirements have improved.
The current standard is: the other person must be good-looking, not short, have fair skin and double eyelids, and have a big butt. Both mothers and grandmothers say that only women with big butts can give birth to sons.
He has a job, and the other party must also have a job. The other party must take back at least half of the betrothal gift, otherwise he will find ways to take the benefits back after marriage.
If the woman is not allowed to return to her parents' home and stays with her mother for two years, she will naturally become obedient.
Um……
He still hopes to marry a sensible, obedient, good-looking and employed wife to save him from trouble.
There was a classmate named Li Mei in school. She would blush shyly every time she saw him, and would often give him the buns she had worked so hard to get. Even though she was obviously very greedy, she would pretend to be full and then give them to him.
Jiang Jun is the man of the family and cannot eat buns every day. Every time he pretends to know nothing and eats all the buns.
He and Li Mei are classmates. They haven't graduated yet and are still in the trial stage.
Li Mei has an average-looking appearance and a city hukou, but she seems to have no job prospects. Aside from her grandfather being nice to her, everyone in the family favors her brothers. She used to think they had good conditions, but now...
She is far inferior to the school beauty Qin Shuangshuang.
Qin Shuangshuang has a city hukou, comes from a wealthy family, and has long legs, a slim waist, and a big butt.
She liked to wear a white shirt under her maroon cloth shirt. She looked a little worse than her third sister, but her eyes were much more charming than her third sister's.
Most of the men in the class thought Qin Shuangshuang's eyes were alluring.
This was the first time Jiang Zao watched Jiang Xing cook since she learned how to cook. She sat here waiting for dinner.
She noticed that Jiang Jun was quite proud and his eyes were full of calculation, and she sneered in her heart.
What evil things are you thinking about?
She replied to Liu Chunhua: "Working at the food factory is okay. The master taught me how to knead dough. I haven't been here long, so I'm not familiar with my colleagues."
Liu Chunhua looked at the brown and white sugar on the table and felt happy. She thought everything Jiang Zao said sounded good. "Yes, yes, it's normal that you are not familiar with the job for such a short time. Don't be too honest. When you see the leaders, remember to bow and say hello. Build good relationships with them. When your little brother graduates, you can get him in."
After he finished speaking, he winked at Jiang Jun.
Jiang Jun, who usually never took Jiang Zao seriously, rubbed his hands embarrassedly: "Third sister, I will rely on you from now on!"
As for the incident a few nights ago where Jiang Zao slammed the door because Feng Miao offended him, Jiang Jun chose to forget about it.
The question Jiang Jun was concerned about hadn't been unearthed yet: "How much are your salaries, sister?"
When it comes to money, others are more shrewd and hardworking.
He took out an upside-down glass from the enamel tea tray, placed it upright on the table, picked up the tin kettle, unplugged it, poured some water into the cup, and rinsed the cup with hot water. The glass was thin and not heat-insulated, so he frowned but did not let go even though it was so hot.
After rinsing the cup, pour the water onto the ground. The soil quickly absorbs the water, leaving a dark brown mark.
Pour hot water a second time to fill the cup.
Jiang Jun respectfully placed the hot water in front of Jiang Zao.
Liu Chunhua praised: "Look at how good your brother is to you, Zao'er. You are a girl without roots, and you will rely on your brothers to get married in the future. Your younger brother is such a good child, he always respects you."
"So how much is the salary?"
Jiang Zao almost laughed out loud.
When they are useful, they will bow down and fawn on you, but when they are useless, they will kick you away.
She didn't touch the water on the table and said truthfully, "My monthly salary is 18.5."
Who dares to drink?
Drink a sip of water and you will lose more meat next time.
Ginger and dates are not rare.
This salary is not low. Jiang Jun looked at Liu Chunhua excitedly.
Liu Chunhua gave a thumbs up: "Zao'er is amazing, she is worthy of being your father's daughter!"
Of course, we also did not forget to mention Jiang Dashan.
Jiang Dashan showed a typical 'macho' smile on his face.
The second son, Jiang Ming, felt very uncomfortable when he saw the happy family.
He was not jealous of their good relationship. No matter how good their relationship was, Jiang Zao was just a girl and could not take anything away from him.
The one who made him uncomfortable was the fourth brother.
Jiang Zao's salary is not much lower than his. The fourth brother has a job after graduation, and there is also the betrothal money that Xiao Shuisheng gave to Jiang Zao.
Comparing in all aspects, the fourth brother scored more than him.
Jiang Zao saw the unwillingness floating between Jiang Ming's brows, and she lowered her head slightly.
This is just the beginning. You will suffer in the future.
In the outer kitchen, Jiang Xing squatted in front of the stove, lighting a fire and baking a pot of sorghum cakes and a bowl of vermicelli soup.
