Chapter 56 Living Clearly
Look at what she said, she is so thoughtful. She is just a temporary worker, but she is being treated as if she is very important. How can she be trusted?
But you can't hit someone who smiles at you. Lin Yuzhu smiled and replied, "Don't do that. I just came here a year earlier than you. We both work under Sister Wang. Just listen to Sister Wang from now on."
Sister Wang didn't seem to notice the wit in their conversation and said with a smile, "Just cooperate with each other from now on. Let's go and have dinner together."
With that, the three of them went to the cafeteria together.
During the meal, Sun Yulian still spoke to her very enthusiastically, and also inquired about Lin Yuzhu's situation. When she learned that she had just separated from her family, had two children, and that her husband used to work in a steel plant and had now been admitted to university, she showed an envious look.
Lin Yuzhu smiled and didn't worry about whether she was really envious or just pretending, but she still asked about her situation, even though she already knew all of it.
Sun Yulian was an educated youth who went to the countryside. Because she always wanted to return to the city, she did not get married in the countryside until she was 22 years old.
It was not until this year that his brother-in-law learned about the temporary job opportunity at the Housing Authority and quickly found the director to book it in advance.
Of course, it is definitely not as simple as she said. After all, there is a shortage of jobs in Beijing due to the large-scale return of educated youth, and the opportunity to be a temporary worker is rare.
It is unknown how she obtained it, but it allowed her to return to the city successfully.
Lin Yuzhu heard this and asked curiously: "Then the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination should have come out before you returned to the city? Why didn't you think about the college entrance examination?"
Sun Yulian sighed helplessly after hearing this, "Why haven't you thought about it? I don't want to miss such a good opportunity. After all, if I can pass the college entrance examination and return to the city, it will definitely be better than now.
But I felt that the chances were slim at the time, so I went to the countryside at the age of 16. I had just graduated from junior high school. I spent six years in the countryside and forgot everything I had learned!
When the college entrance examination was resumed, the educated youth in our brigade were extremely happy, but after the excitement they found that it was too difficult!
At that time, none of us, a dozen or so educated youth, had textbooks, let alone review materials.
We rushed to get there and took leave to go to the county town, but all the books and review materials in the county were sold out. Even the books at the scrap collection station were sold out.
In the end, we could only write letters home and ask them for help, but mailing them back and forth takes time.
Before I left, the educated youth point only mailed over a set of high school textbooks, and everyone had to take turns reading them.
I couldn't understand it at all, but everyone was in a hurry to review and had no time to explain it to me.
Just when I was at a loss, my brother-in-law sent me a message and I came back without any hesitation.
Because I knew that even if I stayed, I wouldn't be able to pass the exam.
The college entrance examination is a good opportunity, but it’s a pity that it’s not suitable for me…”
Lin Yuzhu understood after hearing this. Indeed, compared to the invisible and intangible pancake, the millet rice that can be grasped in front of you is more cost-effective.
It can be said that Sun Yulian is a person who is very successful and clear-headed. No wonder she was able to get a regular job earlier than her in her previous life.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuzhu sighed. She had suffered too few setbacks. Sun Yulian was only one year younger than her, but because she had experienced more, she lived a more transparent life and knew what she wanted.
In comparison, although her life in her previous life was a bit hard, she was actually always loved by Zhao Yanshu, so she was mentally satisfied, and therefore did not do things in such an extreme or desperate manner.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but she secretly decided to be more careful in everything she did in the future and make sure not to be taken advantage of by others.
