Lu Hongmei quickly ran to Shen Man's side and pulled her arm.
"Second sister-in-law, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I shouldn't have been rude to you, I shouldn't have scolded you, I know I was wrong, can you help me?"
"I'll be home later. When I get a job, I'll definitely repay you. Please help me."
Shen Man glanced at her calmly, "Didn't you want me to give you the job in the machinery factory? Why did you change your mind now and want the job in the textile factory?"
Lu Hongmei quickly explained, "Second sister-in-law, I have figured it out now. You took the exam for the job in the machinery factory yourself, so it is naturally more suitable for you."
"I am a person with poor abilities. I have no qualifications to enter. It's good enough to have a job."
Shen Man looked at the man sitting next to her without saying anything, "Did your second brother teach you this?"
This person didn't think so before. She only wanted an office job.
Lu Zhengguo sat quietly aside without saying a word.
Lu Hongmei smiled and said, "At this time, it's already good to be able to find a job. There are many people working in the textile factory, and you can get one if you want it."
"I am very lucky to have my sister-in-law to help me. I can't be picky anymore."
Shen Man retracted her gaze, "Okay, give me the money when you go back tonight, and I will take you to complete the employment procedures tomorrow."
"Really, sister-in-law, you are so good to me. I will never do the opposite of you again."
Lu Hongmei hugged Shen Man's neck directly, wishing she could kiss her a few times.
Lu Zhengguo's face darkened, and he pulled her forward, "Lu Hongmei, stop pulling her. How can others see you?"
"You better behave yourself from now on."
Shen Man looked at the man's gloomy face and raised her eyebrows.
It seems that Lu Zhengguo is still a good brother and knows how to protect his sister's image.
Wang Xi is not a good man and will annoy her at any time.
After leaving the state-owned hotel, Shen Man rode a bicycle, "It's not easy for three people to ride a bicycle, I'll go back first, you two brothers and sisters are coming slowly behind."
After saying that, she pushed her feet hard and disappeared in front of Lu Zhengguo and Lu Hongmei in a flash.
Lu Hongmei was dumbfounded and poked Lu Zhengguo's arm, "Brother, did your sister-in-law just abandon you like this?"
A bicycle can't carry three people, but it's still convenient to carry one person.
Doesn't Shen Man like her brother very much? Why has she been so lukewarm towards him since he came back?
Lu Zhengguo frowned slightly and said in a cold tone, "You should be more respectful to your second sister-in-law in the future. If I find out that you are being sarcastic to her, you will not ask me for help in the future."
Having said that, he strode forward, not caring at all about his sister still behind him.
Lu Hongmei hurriedly ran after him, "Brother, second brother, wait for me, wait for me."
Second brother is really something, he himself is not very good to his wife, otherwise how could she treat Shen Man like that.
Humph, hypocritical indeed.
Fortunately, he is still good to her as his sister, so she will help him take care of his wife in the future.
After Shen Man returned home.
Everyone in the family has returned from get off work, and it is Zhang Fengxia who is cooking.
She was washing vegetables in the yard and saw Shen Man park her bicycle in the yard. She sighed a few times.
"Sister-in-law, Zhengguo bought your car. How can you say your mother bought it for you?"
"Are you afraid of what we might say?"
Shen Man was about to enter the house when she paused, "Sister-in-law, I didn't say my mother bought it for me. You misunderstood."
"If you want it, let me buy it for you."
Zhang Fengxia's face turned ugly, and she blurted out subconsciously, "Just buy it, as if no one can afford it. It's just a bicycle, why are you showing off in front of me?"
Shen Man turned to look at her, "Sister-in-law, you have a dirty mind and think everything is dirty. When have I ever shown off in front of you? If you have the guts, please tell me."
"It's not something I did. I don't like to take the blame. I always look for evidence when I speak or act. If there is no evidence, it's a frame-up."
Zhang Fengxia's face turned red and blue. She threw the food in her hand into the bowl and pointed at Shen Man.
"Look at your tone and attitude now. You are just showing off. Every time you ride your bike back, you have to circle in front of me as if you are afraid that others can't hear or see you."
Shen Man couldn't help but laugh angrily, "Sister-in-law, our yard is so small, if I don't come in from here, where can I come in from?"
"Besides, there's not much space here. I'd have to spend a lot of time looking for a place to park my bike, let alone go around you."
"If you think I'm showing off, you can also ask me to buy you one so you can show off in front of me."
Zhang Fengxia was so angry, "Just buy it, who can't afford it? It's just one or two dollars, my man can definitely afford it."
"Okay, I'll wait for your new bicycle, sister-in-law, and you can show it off in front of me when the time comes." After Shen Man finished speaking, she turned around and went into the house.
Indoors.
Mother Lu was sitting there mending clothes.
When she looked up and saw Shen Man coming into the room, she quickly put down her things and walked towards Shen Man, "Second son's wife, wait a moment, Mom has something to tell you."
Shen Man stopped and said, "Mom, you are here for work, so if it's about this, then I won't say more."
"Give me seven dollars tonight, and I'll take Hongmei to the textile factory tomorrow morning to complete the employment procedures."
"What, seven dollars? Wasn't it five dollars?"
Hearing Shen Man agree, Lu's mother was about to get very excited, but when she quickly realized that she wanted to give her seven yuan, she was stunned.
It's only been a few days, how come it went from five dollars to seven dollars?
It would take the whole family several years to save up these seven dollars even if they didn't eat or drink.
Shen Man looked at Lu's mother, "Why, Zheng Guo and Hong Mei didn't tell you?"
This price was not proposed by her. Could it be that Lu Zhengguo didn't tell the Lu family about this?
At this time, Zhang Fengxia, who had just finished washing the vegetables and came into the house, also heard about the seven yuan, and she hurried over.
"Mom, you can't agree to this. How can we afford to hire Hongmei for a job?"
"Even if you don't think about our family, you should think about your two grandchildren. You can't give all the family money to Hongmei, a daughter who is about to get married, to buy work, right?"
"If she really doesn't want to go to the countryside, can't she just find someone to marry? Why does she have to suck the blood of the family?"
Upon hearing this, Lu's mother got a terrible headache and didn't know what to do for a moment.
She had no choice but to look at Shen Man for help, "Second wife, five dollars is not enough? This... seven dollars is too much. Our family can't afford that much money."
