When Su Nuan heard Jiang Tianyou’s words, she leaned in to listen, and only heard Han Weimin’s bitter smile, “What else can I plan?”
"I work to earn work points to support my family, and that's how my life will be."
Su Nuan couldn't help but ask, "You are still young, how can you live your life like this?"
Jiang Tianyou nodded in agreement, "Comrade Su is right."
"Life is so long, we can't just let it go like this."
He suddenly thought of something and paused. "I do have a friend at the Railway Bureau. They are recruiting road maintenance workers. It's a formal job. There will be a pension when you get old, but it's very hard work. It's hard for young people to stick with it."
Han Weimin said without hesitation: “I am not afraid of hard work.”
"If you're interested, I'll call and ask for you later."
"Okay." Han Weimin said decisively.
Su Nuan opened her mouth, but finally swallowed what she was about to say.
The work of a railway engineer is not only hard, but also unstable. If you work here this year, you may be transferred to another place next year.
Su Nuan was not very willing to let her cousin become a railway worker.
But my cousin has no better place to go right now, so he has to give up.
How she wished that the 1980s could come sooner so that she could take her cousin into business and make a fortune.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Tianyou went to the message room to call his old friend to learn about the railway workers' wages, work content, benefits, etc., and then went back to discuss the matter with Han Weimin.
"This project is about the Hunan-Guizhou Railway, which is the Hunan-Guizhou section of the Shanghai-Kunming Railway, starting from Zhuzhou, Hunan Province to Guiyang, Guizhou Province... This project is in great need of people. If you are willing to go, you can set off tomorrow."
An Qionglan said awkwardly: "Isn't this a bit too hasty?"
Although railway workers were paid by the government, their work sounded very hard. In fact, she was more or less reluctant to let Han Weimin go.
Moreover, it is unknown how long it will take for my son to come back, so it would be even more difficult for him to get married.
"I'm willing to go." Han Weimin said impatiently.
He will always remember what his ex-fiancee said, that his family had been peasants for generations, and his descendants would also become peasants in the future.
He hopes he can get rid of his status as a peasant.
It doesn't matter what the profession is, as long as it's not a peasant.
After Han Weimin made his decision, Jiang Tianyou quickly called his friend and borrowed a car to go to the train station to buy tickets.
Due to time constraints, they could only buy a standing ticket.
Since Han Weimin brought very little luggage and there was nothing much to pack, An Qionglan became worried when she looked at her son's deflated luggage bag.
Su Nuan bought him a toothbrush, a tube of toothpaste, a towel, a wash cup, three pairs of socks, a down vest and a towel blanket from the mall.
If she had known in advance that he was going to work, Su Nuan could have found an excuse to buy a few more sets of clothes. Now that she could take out these, she felt a little guilty.
Fortunately, everyone's attention was on Han Weimin, and no one asked about the source of these things.
Just before going to bed, Han Fengzhi and Jiang Tianyou came again, bringing an old military coat and two sets of old clothes, all of which were worn by Jiang Tianyou. Han Weimin didn't mind and accepted them all.
Early the next morning, Jiang Tianyou drove the military vehicle to take Han Weimin to the train station.
An Qionglan got up at three in the morning to make breakfast. She cooked a lot of potatoes, corn and other things and gave them to Han Weimin to eat in the car.
Su Nuan secretly stuffed a bag of apples and some biscuits and snacks into Han Weimin's luggage, and watched them get on the bus before going back to sleep.
Maybe everyone was woken up very early in the morning, and when they lay down, they woke up again at noon.
Old Mrs. Ling cooked lunch for everyone. An Qionglan looked unhappy and sat in the living room looking outside.
The others were also listless, the atmosphere was completely different from yesterday.
Han Fengzhi didn't come to visit until the afternoon, and the house became a little more lively.
"Mom and Dad, Tianyou said that since it's the off-season now, why don't you celebrate the New Year here and go back after the New Year."
"When the time comes, we'll clean up the guest room, and Mom and Dad will stay at my place."
"Mr. Wei, do you want to sleep in my living room or Xiao Nuan's living room?"
Han Weixian was used to living in Su Nuan's house, so he turned around and asked Su Nuan, "Sister Nuan, can I continue to live in your house?"
Su Nuan responded: "Of course."
"I'll find a way to get you a single bed in the guest room someday, with a curtain in the middle. That way you don't have to be the head of the hall anymore."
The next day, Su Nuan found an excuse to go out and brought back a single bed for Han Weixian.
An Qionglan happily made a curtain between the two beds.
Because Mrs. Ling had to get up in the middle of the night and get up early in the morning, she slept in the bed near the door, and Han Weixian slept in the bed near the window.
Han Zhushan and An Qionglan went to live with Jiang Tianyou and ate there during the day.
The day after Han Weimin reported to the Railway Bureau, Song Chunfeng finally returned.
The whole person has lost weight and become darker.
He also brought back news about Bai Zhenzhen. "After Bai Zhenzhen's parents found out that she was the one who sold her sister to the Northwest, they both fainted."
"I guess he has already published an announcement in the newspaper to cut off ties with her."
"Bai Zhenzhen's sentence has also been announced. She was sentenced to 30 years in prison!"
Su Nuan felt happy, but also confused, "Why did she kidnap her own sister?"
