Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is already early August, and the air is filled with the rich fragrance of osmanthus.
In Hanshan Village, a quiet and beautiful place, lush osmanthus trees are planted in front of almost every household.
As the breeze blows, the tiny flowers fall like golden raindrops, leaving an intoxicating fragrance wherever they go.
Jiang Yang learned by himself to pick a few branches that were in full bloom and in full bloom.
He carefully placed these fragrant branches on his desk, hoping that his wife would be the first to smell the fragrance when she woke up.
Today is a particularly important day for Jiang Yang——
He finally got a regular job!
However, the joy did not go to his head. He still wanted to work hard and live up to the factory director's cultivation.
After finishing breakfast early, he couldn't wait to rush to the village entrance to take a long-distance bus to his workplace.
"Tsk tsk tsk, have you heard? That Jiang Laosan has become a regular worker in the food factory!" said a well-informed woman mysteriously.
"What? How come he suddenly became a regular employee? Wasn't he a temporary worker before?" someone nearby asked in surprise.
"Hey, it's because of his outstanding performance! It is said that he works very hard, and does the job quickly and well. As a result, the factory director took a liking to him at first sight, and with a wave of his hand, he was directly hired as a regular employee!" The man explained with a beaming expression.
"Is it true? Where did you hear this news?" another person asked doubtfully.
"Well, I tell you, it's absolutely true!
Widow Song heard the news yesterday when she took her son to the town to get a certificate.
"Besides, Jiang Laosan's household registration will be transferred to the food factory soon!" This person said very logically.
"Oh my God, in this way, Jiang Laosan has officially become a city dweller!" someone couldn't help but sigh.
"Who says it's not true? Once the town unit accepts Jiang Laosan's household registration, he can move into the unit's collective household.
Maybe the company will even allocate him a house in the future! By then, even the food supply relationship will change..."
Everyone was talking about it, their eyes full of envy.
"Hey, a girl from Xiahe Village has found a treasure!
"This Jiang Laosan is now a worker. She will definitely live a happy life in the future!" One of them joked with a smile.
"The wife of Jiang Laosan is quite a formidable figure! She earns a lot of money from translating for newspapers!"
Look, they've already built a shower room in their house, did you see that?" Someone else brought up this new thing.
"With such a big commotion, how could we not know about it? It's really enviable!" everyone echoed.
"Tell me, how come Widow Song has such a good life?
She has neither parents-in-law to torture her, nor a husband to criticize her harshly, and she doesn't even have a son or daughter to pay for her child's actions!
No matter how you look at it, it's a life of luxury!" said one of the women with envy.
Another woman echoed, "That's right! Widow Song is really having a great time now!"
Look at her three sons, they are all very filial to her!
Look at the three daughters-in-law, they have taken on all the housework at home...
Tsk tsk tsk, when we compare ourselves to them, we are simply one in heaven and one in hell."
"Oh, if I could have a life like Widow Song, I would probably wake up laughing in my dreams at night!"
The third woman shook her head and sighed, and couldn't help but fantasize about living such a comfortable life.
At this moment, Qin Zhaodi suddenly appeared on the riverbank.
When the other women who were chatting saw her, they immediately scattered like mice seeing a cat to make way for her.
There's nothing I can do about it, because she's the captain's wife!
Moreover, for the past decade or so, she has been competing with Widow Song openly and covertly, and comparing with each other, but she has never won.
Although most people were afraid of getting into trouble and did not dare to offend Qin Zhaodi, there were still some women who were proud of their high moral character and were not afraid of her.
But in the current situation, no one wants to cause trouble, so they try to avoid it if possible.
A man came over from a distance, looked at Qin Zhaodi who was washing clothes by the river with curiosity, and asked loudly in a hoarse voice:
"Oh, this is about building a country, why are you bothering me to do the laundry today?
Where has your filial daughter-in-law gone? Is she perhaps taking a break from work and hiding away to relax?
After hearing this, Qin Zhaodi frowned and replied unhappily:
"Hmph, I'm not old and broken, can't I just wash a few clothes myself? You don't need to bother me!"
As she spoke, she glared at the man fiercely, her eyes full of resentment.
At this moment, her eyes involuntarily followed the back of Jiang Yang who had just left, and she cursed the hateful Widow Song from head to toe in her heart.
"That damned Widow Song, all she does all day is gossip and sow discord, causing chaos among the neighbors!
If it weren't for her foul mouth gossiping everywhere, she wouldn't be being ridiculed like this today!"
The more Qin Zhaodi thought about it, the angrier she became. She rubbed the clothes hard with her hands, as if she was rubbing not the clothes but the disgusting heart of Widow Song.
The women, as if they had discussed it beforehand, picked up the bamboo baskets and mallets in their hands and walked hurriedly into the distance.
None of them wanted to stay and argue with Qin Zhaodi. After all, everyone knew very well that Qin Zhaodi hated Widow Song to the point of gritting her teeth.
Why did Qin Zhaodi hate Widow Song so much?
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can understand the reason with just a little observation.
Look at Widow Song. Although she is a bit fierce and has been a widow for the past few years, she has indeed not remarried.
After becoming a widow, she not only kept the house in order, but also found wives for all her sons.
To be fair, if they were in her place, they could not guarantee that they would not remarry and stay in their deceased husband's home.
On the other hand, although Qin Zhaodi is also a hardworking person, her appearance is ordinary. In addition, she has a somewhat fierce and unruly personality, so she is often disliked by others.
But now, seeing that Widow Song was better than him in every way and was living a prosperous life, he was naturally burning with jealousy and hated her to the core.
But even so, the reality is before us and no one can change it.
Widow Song is a real winner in life!
