Chapter 2 College Entrance Examination
Among them, Lin Yuzhu’s husband Zhao Yanshu is no exception.
Zhao Yanshu is 23 years old this year. After graduating from high school, he originally planned to respond to the country's call to go to the countryside to work as a sent-down youth, but his fate took a turn for the better at this time.
By chance, Zhao Yanshu saved the mother of Director Guo of the steel plant when he was out.
In order to repay him for saving his life, Director Guo specially arranged a job for him and let him work as a loader in the steel plant's loading and unloading team.
Although this job is tiring, it is a formal job that others dream of.
At the beginning, this job made the Zhao family and the surrounding neighbors envious.
After all, in this day and age, jobs are unique to each person and can be inherited from father to son and from son to grandson, so it goes without saying how difficult it is to find a job.
Take the Zhao family for example, it’s impossible for all four brothers to have jobs.
In order to avoid going to the countryside, the eldest and second sons of the Zhao family inherited the jobs of the two elders after graduation.
Zhao Yanshu is the third oldest and the least favored among the four brothers. Not to mention that he has no job, even if the Zhao family still has one, they will not give it to him. After all, the most favored brother in the family, Zhao Laosi, is only one year younger than him.
When this job came out, the Zhao family's first thought was to give the job to the fourth child and let Zhao Yanshu go to the countryside.
If Director Guo had not clearly stated at the time that the job was for Zhao Yanshu and emphasized that he would take it back if it was given to anyone else, such a good job would probably never have fallen to Zhao Yanshu.
It was also because of this that Zhao Yanshu got a formal job and stayed in the capital.
But Zhao Laosi had to go to the countryside because he had no job.
However, after Zhao Yanshu became a worker, he still had to hand over his salary because the Zhao family had not split up. It was not until after they got married that Zhao's mother gave them five yuan pocket money every month.
This was certainly not enough to spend, so the couple lived a tight life over the years until Lin Yuzhu found a temporary job.
Although Zhao's mother asked her several times to hand over her salary, Lin Yuzhu refused. After all, her elder and second sisters-in-law did not hand over their salaries, so why should she hand it over?
…
I've gone too far. The big event this time that concerns the fate of their family is that Zhao Yanshu wants to take the college entrance examination.
Zhao Yanshu has been smart and hardworking since he was young. He studied all the way to high school. If the college entrance examination had not been suddenly stopped, he would probably have continued his studies.
Later, even though he had a job, he still loved reading in his spare time.
Therefore, after the college entrance examination was resumed this time, his calm heart was disturbed again and he wanted to give it a try.
This matter also received the strong support of Lin Yuzhu.
So he secretly signed up some time ago, and then used his time after get off work to secretly review at home.
Out of their understanding of the Zhao family, both of them tacitly kept it a secret from them, thinking of waiting until after the exams.
Unexpectedly, when the exam was approaching next month, the Zhao family got the news from somewhere and found out about this.
This time they called Zhao Yanshu over to use threats and inducements to make him give up this plan.
After all, based on the Zhao family's understanding of Zhao Yanshu, if he took the exam, he would have a great chance of passing. In this way, they would lose a person who paid wages to the family every month.
Of course, some people also say that the current salary is so low. If he can go to college, he will definitely earn more after graduation, right?
But the Zhao family is different. We can’t say they are short-sighted. Maybe they are more afraid that Zhao Yanshu will have a bright future.
As for why, it has to do with Zhao Yanshu's life experience...
