Chapter 47 Officially Going to Work



"Stop talking nonsense here. I think you have bad intentions."

Thinking of her daughter's honest appearance, her mother's eyes flickered and she said, "Baogui, if you really want to marry my daughter, then give her two hundred yuan as a betrothal gift."

Zhang Baogui refused without hesitation, as he now saw clearly the greedy faces of the Zhou family.

Not to mention two hundred, he didn't even want to pay fifty dollars.

Zhang Baogui didn't waste any time talking to them and turned into the yard.

Grandma Zhang had already woken up by then. When she heard that her son would not marry the daughter of the Zhou family, she suddenly felt as if the world was turning upside down before her eyes: "Baogui, if you don't marry the daughter of the Zhou family, when can you marry her?"

Zhou Baogui lowered his head and said, "Mom, the Zhou family is a bottomless pit. Since she can listen to her parents and ask us for 500 yuan.

And maybe he'll ask for even more after he gets married. How can our family afford to give him that?

With so much money, I can marry a better wife, Mom, don't worry about this matter. "

Mother Zhou didn't expect that the Zhang family would give up so easily.

Originally she was thinking of making a fortune, but now she has nothing. She suddenly felt regretful. If she had known, she would not have asked for so much and would have asked for less.

When Xu Ying heard the news that the marriage had failed, her lips curved with joy.

But Xu Jiangmin and his wife felt very happy that they had ruined the marriage.

Xu Ying shook her head and said nothing about this.

When Xu Shengcai arrived at the working day, he put on his new clothes early in the morning, looking energetic. After breakfast, he hurried to work.

He set a small goal for himself and worked hard to save money to buy a bicycle so that he wouldn't have to walk.

The same thing happened in the Lu family. Lu Daya became a teacher, and the way her mother looked at her daughter changed.

I spent a lot of money to make two new sets of clothes for my daughter so that she can wear them alternately.

Their Lu family really brought honor to their ancestors by producing a teacher. If it were in ancient times, her daughter would be a private school teacher, and would definitely be at the level of a scholar.

Oh my, then she would be a noble lady. Mother Lu was so happy that she offered to send her daughter to school on the first day.

"Good morning, elder sister."

"What are you going to do?"

"My daughter has become a teacher, right? I'll send her to work!"

Mother Lu was so proud that she talked about it all the time as she walked, afraid that others didn't know that her daughter was a teacher.

When Xu's mother heard all this, she was disgusted. Her son also became a teacher, but she didn't show off like that.

The Lu family is really hopeless.

On the first day Xu Shengcai came home from work, his mother was already waiting at the entrance of the village.

As soon as he saw his son coming back, he immediately asked, "Son, how was your first day at work?"

Xu Shengcai said: "It's good."

"Sister-in-law is eating."

"What are you doing so late?"

"It's my son's first day at work. I'm a little worried, so I came to pick him up." Xu's mother said with a smile.

We met a lot of people along the way, and now they all knew that the second son of the Xu family became a teacher, and the eldest daughter of the Lu family also became a teacher.

Chen Yanran dragged her tired body back from work and found the smile on Xu's mother's face particularly dazzling.

When she thought about the fact that she didn't get the teacher's spot, she felt that it was Lu Daya and Xu Sheng who took her spot.

I was immediately furious.

She will not let Xu Ying go.

"Brother, how is work?" Xu Ying asked considerately as she poured a glass of water for her brother.

Xu Shengcai nodded and said, "Very good."

Mainly because she was afraid that these words would hurt Xu Shengcai.

Looking at his second brother, Xu Ying said, "It's fine. I heard that the commune will have recommendation quotas every year, and I will have the opportunity to teach in the county.

Second brother, you have to work hard. If you can go to the county to teach, you and Sister Qiuye can be closer. Then Accountant Xu won't dare to look down on our family anymore."

Brother Xu took these words to heart and secretly vowed to work hard to get a teaching position in the county.

If I teach in the county town, I will not only be closer to Qiuye, but my salary will also be much higher than that in Yushan Commune.

He is still in the probation period and his salary is less than 15 yuan.

If you become a regular employee, you will get 20 yuan a month. If you can go to the county town, your salary will increase a lot.

Thinking of this, he was filled with energy.

Xu Ying ate a little too much for dinner and felt uncomfortable with her bloated stomach, so she got up and went out for a walk to help digest the food and to visit Lu Daya at the same time.

As soon as she reached the door and raised her head, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

Dong Wenzhong was wearing a pair of glasses and dressed neatly as he stood in front of a big tree in the distance.

He looked at Xu Ying with a hurt look.

Dong Wenzhong was really helpless. Without Xu Ying's care recently, he was suffering miserably in the fields.

As usual, he looked at Xu Ying with his pair of handsome glasses, thinking that she would be reluctant to run away on her own.

Who would have thought that Xu Ying didn't even look at him, but walked away along the path with big strides.

Dong Wenzhong's face turned pale and he clenched his hands in anger, but he felt a sudden pain. He opened his hands and saw that the edges of his hands were red and there were several blisters on his fingers.

This was a hardship he had never experienced before.

As soon as he arrived at the Youth Institute, he was noticed by Xu Ying. While everyone was working hard in the fields, he was assigned the easiest job by Xu's father.

Ever since Xu Ying fell into the water, she hasn't visited him once, and his previous easy job was also taken away by Xu's father.

Now I’m doing the same work as everyone else, all hard and tiring.

He was filled with anger. Wasn't it just that the captain was relying on his status to bully others?

Watching Xu Ying's back getting farther and farther away, Dong Wenzhong finally couldn't help but bow to the authority.

"Xu Ying, wait a moment."

Xu Ying ignored him.

Dong Wenzhong chased after him unwillingly and blocked Xu Ying's way. He asked, "Xu Ying, even if your father is the captain, he can't take revenge on someone else."

When Xu Ying heard this, her face turned cold: "Why is my dad taking revenge on you? What did he force you to do?"

Dong Wenzhong thought she was feeling sorry for him, so he immediately said righteously, "Your father actually asked me to work in the fields!"

Xu Ying looked at him like a fool: "If you don't work in the fields, where will you work?"

Dong Wenzhong said: “I used to record work points in the cabin.

Why should this job be given to your sister-in-law now? You are just using public power to take revenge on your own.”

Xu Ying sneered: "Dong Zhiqing, you are really an ungrateful person."

Dong Wenzhong's face turned pale after being scolded like this.

Xu Ying continued, "That job originally belonged to my eldest sister-in-law, but she saw that Dong Zhiqing and Chen Zhiqing were too weak to adapt to it at first.

That's why I thought of letting you do this job. I didn't expect that after letting you do it for a while, you would feel that this job is yours.

If you are not convinced, you can go to the commune to find the leader, but I have to be frank with you, recording work points is a formal job, and it has always been my sister-in-law’s job. "

At the beginning, Xu Dasao's parents were afraid that their daughter could not endure the hardship, so they used several connections and paid some money to get their daughter this job.
