Chapter 797 Xiao Changsheng's Work Arrangement
Seeing that the section chief had left the office in a good mood, she went to make a phone call.
Fortunately, she was lucky and the other party asked her to call back in ten minutes.
But before ten minutes had passed, the phone in the office rang: "Hello, who are you looking for?"
Fu Yancheng's voice came from the other end of the phone, and it was obvious that he was in a hurry: "Yancheng, among the tickets you gave me, there are also bicycle tickets, sewing machine tickets and radio tickets. Did you take the wrong ones?"
When Fu Yancheng heard about this, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Didn't I tell you before that you can just wear the three-turn and one-ring watch that was sent over, and leave the others at home. I'll buy another set when we get married."
Chu Xue was a little confused when she heard this: "Are you serious?"
"Of course, the tickets are all with you. If they are fake, you can blame me for not telling you in time."
"But if your family knew about this..."
Nowadays, it is considered a great thing for an average family to have one or two items. If one can have three wheels and one bell, it is already something that others envy. Not to mention that, apart from the watch, there are only two of each item. I am afraid that not many people can afford it.
After all, buying these things not only requires money, but the tickets are the hardest to get. She doesn't even know where Fu Yancheng got these tickets.
But you don't need to ask to know that it must have taken a lot of thought.
Fu Yancheng didn't hear Chuxue speak for a while: "Xue'er, are you still listening?"
Chuxue's voice choked with sobs: "Yes."
Fu Yancheng understood: "When I'm done with my work these few days, I'll go with you to buy the things and put them in the courtyard."
It was inconvenient to talk over the phone, so Chu Xue replied softly, "I understand. You go ahead and do your work. I'm hanging up."
Xiao Changsheng and his family stayed in the city for another two days before they politely declined the old man's invitation and prepared to return to the village.
They discussed it many times in the past two days, and Xiao Changsheng decided to follow his eldest brother's advice and go to the railway station to work as a track maintenance worker. Although it is not easy, for now, this is the only job that suits him.
Xiao Changjiang also suggested that he take some time to learn a few more words, so that he could find a way to transfer him to a lighter job when the time comes.
Xiao Changsheng had heard gossip from people these days, saying that he was the youngest son of the Xiao family who grew up in the countryside and was an illiterate peasant.
To be honest, he was not very happy about it, so he made up his mind that he would take time to learn more characters in the future, so that he could at least be transferred to an easier position and would not cause trouble to his elder brother.
It was agreed that they would go back and pack up and report back in a week.
As for where to live, Mr. Xiao said he would leave it to him.
After Mr. Xiao sent someone to see them off, he looked at Miao Yiqiu and said, "I discussed with Changjiang before that we should transfer the house in Yuru Hutong to Changsheng as compensation to him. What do you think?"
Miao Yiqiu chuckled and said, "Of course I have no objection. It originally belonged to the two brothers Changjiang and Changsheng. Since Changjiang has no objection, let's do it this way.
I can see that they can’t feel at ease living here, but they’d be more comfortable living in the yard over there.”
Seeing that she had no objection, Mr. Xiao immediately found someone to make arrangements, hoping that his youngest son and his family could come and move in.
On the other hand, when Xiao Changjiang got home at noon, he also mentioned this to his wife Zhang Haitang: "Dad said that the house in Yuru Hutong should be given to the second son's family to live in, and I agreed."
Zhang Haitang knew about that yard: "For now, the house at home is indeed big enough for us to live in, but when the grandchildren grow up, this house will not be big enough. I was thinking of letting the third child live there when he comes back from the countryside."
