Chapter 5 Origin of Work
Thinking of this, she hated her sweet-faced but bitter sister-in-law even more. It was only later that she realized that she had never intended for the two sisters to have similar names.
She just didn't want anyone else to have a better name than her daughter, so she said those high-sounding words.
As a result, her daughter could no longer stand up straight for the rest of her life. She was afraid to say her name when interacting with others, for fear that they would laugh at her.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuzhu was filled with hatred, but now was not the time to think about these things.
Seeing that her husband had coaxed their son to sleep, she asked quietly, "What do your parents want to talk to you about?"
Zhao Yanshu paused after hearing this, not daring to look at her, and only said softly: "They know about the college entrance examination."
Lin Yuzhu was not surprised to hear this, and then asked: "Well, then why did they come to you? Not letting you take the exam?"
After hearing this, Zhao Yanshu paused again, then nodded slightly.
"……Um"
Lin Yuzhu glanced at him and asked, "Did you agree?"
Zhao Yanshu shook his head. "No, I listened to you. I didn't agree. I said I would come back and think about it."
Lin Yuzhu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, after all, he had agreed directly in his previous life. By the time she found out, the matter had already been settled and it was too late.
"So what do you think?"
Zhao Yanshu shook his head. "I don't know. My parents said that I already have a formal job with a good salary. If I delay four years to go to college, I will still be assigned to the factory to start from scratch after graduation. There is no point."
"Can it be the same?"
Lin Yuzhu almost cursed after hearing this. What kind of words are these? What do you mean by unnecessary? Can a college graduate be the same as a porter now?
You are lying with your eyes open!
Lin Yuzhu was extremely angry, but after looking at Zhao Yanshu, she held back her anger.
"So what do you think? Do you want to be a porter for the rest of your life?"
Zhao Yanshu immediately shook his head after hearing this, "Of course I don't want to, but my parents said that our family is in financial difficulty right now, and our fourth child is getting married in the countryside. Although the policy has been relaxed now, we can't come back if we don't have a job.
If I want to take the college entrance examination, I have to give him the job. You know, I have to give this job back to him sooner or later. I can’t give it to the fourth child.”
After hearing this, Lin Yuzhu sighed again.
She also knew how Zhao Yanshu got the job. As she had said before, Zhao Yanshu got the job because he saved Director Guo's mother.
In fact, this job was originally prepared by Director Guo for his son.
Because they gave it to him, Director Guo's son lost his job and had to go to the countryside.
Zhao Yanshu only found out about this later. By then, Director Guo’s son had already gone to the countryside, and it was too late for him to go back.
So I have always felt guilty, and over the years I have told Director Guo more than once that I want to give the job back and let his son come back.
Of course, he was rejected in the end, but Director Guo still asked him to work hard and not let him down.
However, Lin Yuzhu speculated that Director Guo did not give him the job just to repay his gratitude. What was more important was that many cadres at that time caused a lot of trouble by abusing their power for personal gain in order to avoid sending their children to the countryside.
As a state official, if Director Guo openly helps his son get a backdoor, it will probably have an impact on him as well.
In addition, he heard that the female comrade that Director Guo’s son liked had also gone to the countryside, so he wanted to follow her and made a fuss with his family. Finally, Director Guo agreed to his wish and gave the job to Zhao Yanshu.
But these are things that happened in the past. Since the educated youth were allowed to return to the city, Zhao Yanshu has thought about returning his job more than once.
However, Director Guo still refused, saying that his son had already decided to take the college entrance examination and encouraged him to do so as well.
Zhao Yanshu's original idea was that no matter whether he passed the exam or not, he had to return the job and would not give it to anyone else. After all, he didn't save people for the job.
Even the reason why I accepted this job was because of Lin Yuzhu.
