Chapter 406 Who dares to bully my Gu family
When the bald guy heard Gu Qiuyu calling him "Dad", he knew that the person on the other end of the phone was the promising soldier from the Gu family, who said that he had become a regiment commander in the army.
His family wanted him to marry Gu Qiuyu because Gu Qiuyu had a father who was an officer in the army. They also said that her father was promising and that if he married Gu Qiuyu, her father could help their family.
"Who made you unhappy? Why are you so angry?" Gu Huai, as the father of his niece, still showed concern for his niece.
Gu Qiuyu looked at the short-haired man leaning against the counter, listening intently, and narrowed his eyes. "Liu Youfu, the son of our town secretary, always comes to the supply and marketing cooperative to harass me..."
Liu Youfu became anxious and pointed at Gu Qiuyu to signal him to stop talking nonsense.
Gu Qiuyu didn't care. "He's working at the supply and marketing cooperative right now. He even said he found a matchmaker and came to our house to propose marriage. He wants me to marry him. If my family doesn't agree, I can forget about being the village chief."
Gu Huai's face darkened. "So arrogant? I'll call the county tomorrow and see who dares to bully my Gu family."
Gu Qiuyu looked at Liu Youfu and said, "My father said he would call the county tomorrow."
"You..." Liu Youfu panicked and pointed at Gu Qiuyu, not knowing what to say or refute, because he was the one who said those words.
Liu Youfu didn't know what to do, so he turned around and ran away.
"Dad, he was scared away, hahaha."
"Qiuyu, your mom and your aunt opened a clothing store and are short of staff. Do you want to come and work?"
Gu Qiuyu's eyes lit up, "I do, I really do. Dad, you must let me go."
Great, she also has a chance to go into the city.
"Go ask your mother-in-law to answer the phone. I'll call you back in ten minutes."
"good."
Gu Qiuyu gave two candies to the child playing outside and asked the child to call her mother-in-law to answer the phone.
"Your father called?" Zhao Changying walked into the supply and marketing cooperative without blushing or breathing heavily.
Gu Qiuyu was still immersed in the excitement of going to work in a big city. She nodded vigorously and said, "Grandma, my mother and aunt opened a clothing store and need help. Let me go too."
Zhao Changying: “?”
"Isn't it a noodle shop?"
"Then I don't know. Anyway, my dad said he's opening a clothing store, so I want to go there." Gu Qiuyu pulled her mother-in-law's sleeve and acted coquettishly.
Zhao Changying glared at her unhappily and said, "If you want to go, go ahead. No one's stopping you."
Although Qiuyu got the job of a salesperson in the supply and marketing cooperative through connections and it was a formal job, being able to work in the city was definitely better than staying in the supply and marketing cooperative in a small town.
"Yeah, that's great." Gu Qiuyu jumped up with joy.
The phone rang, and Zhao Changying, who was waiting in front of the phone, answered it.
"Hello, is this the youngest?"
"It's my mom. How are you, my dad, and my mother-in-law?"
"It's fine. Your mother-in-law can eat two bowls of rice in one meal."
"Mom, let me tell you something..."
Gu Huai told her that he wanted his sister-in-law, Qiuyu and her to come up to help, and also said that he could take the old lady to the city as well.
Zhao Changying thought carefully and replied, "Your sister-in-law and Qiuyu can go, but your mother-in-law and I won't go. We are old and can't help much, so we won't bother you young people."
"To put it bluntly, your mother-in-law is old now. If she goes to the city that day... that would be bad."
He was an old man in his eighties. He looked fine, able to eat, drink and sleep, but he passed away without a moment's notice.
Old Mrs. Zhao from their village was two years younger than Old Mrs. Gu. She was fine the day before and had a good sleep. The next morning, her family discovered that she had an erection.
Hearing her say this, Gu Huai didn't say anything else, only said: "Then go back and ask your sister-in-law, Xiaohui and Hongmei's clothing store is doing well. Right now, they only make clothes and sell them in their own small workshop, but maybe they won't open a factory in the future. When that happens, maybe my eldest and second brothers will come up to help."
"You want to set up a factory?" Zhao Changying was really shocked.
"Anyway, what Xiaohui and the others said is possible. Oh, by the way, if my sister-in-law and Qiuyu come up, the first three months will be a probationary period, learning to use the sewing machine to make clothes, and the monthly salary will be 30 yuan. After three months, they will be regular employees and the monthly salary will be 50 yuan. They will get a 50-cent bonus for each piece of clothing they make. If they can make 100 pieces of clothing a month, the salary will be 100 yuan."
Gu Qiuyu also leaned over to listen in, and when she heard the salary was so high, she covered her mouth in shock.
"We are all family, there is no need for such a high salary." Zhao Changying thought it was too high.
"Because we are a family, we cannot let our family members suffer."
Zhao Changying hung up the phone, her heart pounding.
"Grandma, how much money do you think my mother and aunt have to make from this clothing store to pay such high salaries?"
Zhao Changying: "How would I know? I'm going home first. You should go home early after work too."
When Zhao Changying returned home, she first told her eldest daughter-in-law Zheng Rong about this matter.
Zheng Rong really didn't expect that her fourth brother's wife and sister-in-law opened a clothing store in the city and wanted her to help.
This was indeed a great opportunity, and the salary was high, but she was already old and had never left home or traveled far. She also had to work in the city and learn to sew clothes on a sewing machine. She was afraid she wouldn't be able to do it well, and she didn't want to be separated from her man for a long time.
"Mom, I'm already so old, I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Besides, if I'm gone, what will happen to the child's father?"
Zhao Changying rolled her eyes at her eldest daughter-in-law. "How can Gu Jiang not survive without you? You are an old couple, not some young couple who have only been married for two years. You can't live without each other."
Zheng Rong understood the meaning behind her mother-in-law's words and her face turned red.
"Besides, it only takes a day to get to the youngest brother's place by train. If you really miss each other, you can come back to see the eldest brother, and the eldest brother can come to the city to see you."
"You're only in your early forties. How can you be considered old? You've lived in the countryside all your life. Wouldn't it be great to go to the city and see the world, learn something, and make a lot of money?"
"If I were ten years younger and your grandmother wasn't around, I would have gone to work for you without you telling me."
"Once you become a regular employee, as long as you can make 100 pieces of clothing a month, this will be the number." Zhao Changying stretched out a finger.
“…” Zheng Rong was persuaded and also conflicted.
"I want to ask the child's father what he means."
"Ask, Qiuyu is definitely going anyway."
Zheng Rong nodded. She wanted her daughter to leave here and go out and see the world.
"By the way, don't tell Wang Mei and Tian Ying about the salary. If they knew, they would definitely make a scene."
"I promise not to tell." After being together for so many years, Zheng Rong also knew who the two sisters-in-law were, and she also understood why the youngest one called her and Qiuyu, but not Wang Mei and Tian Ying.
At the same time, Bai Qiliang, who was far away in Yunnan Province, also received a call from his daughter.
