Chapter 71 Chapter 71 (Two in One) "This weekend...
But since the eldest sister has no intention of coming back, the things that need to be sent still need to be sent over. Jiang Shuangshuang said, "The smoked meat needs to be smoked for a while to prevent the meat from staining the fabric. I still want to send the fabric over first, and let her find someone to make the clothes herself."
With the material and the ten yuan that Xu Ma sent me, is it difficult to make clothes?
Maybe she doesn't need to consider these yet...
Jiang Shuangshuang thought about it, and then she said, "Find a few feet of paper from the bag on the boat and send it to her."
"Wait, aren't they all dark colors?" Xu Yingxia was unhappy, "How can your elder sister, a girl, wear that kind of color?"
They had already cleared out the previous fabrics, and the fabrics piled on Xiaozhou's side were all brown, dark blue, black and gray. Xiaozhou liked them, as he felt that those were the colors that men should wear.
This should be sent over, to whom should it be worn?
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Jiang Shuangshuang had no objection, "If you say you won't send it, then don't send it."
“…”
Xu Yingxia didn't want to continue what she said. She hesitated and finally said with an extremely evasive look: "She should still dress up. It's not that a girl can't wear dark clothes. Wouldn't it be perfect for her to wear when she's working? It's durable and stain-resistant. It's perfect for her."
Jiang Shuangshuang held back her laughter and said, "Then why not pretend a little?"
"Pack it, pack it." Xu Yingxia didn't want to continue talking about this matter. "You can arrange your own materials. I will send it to the post office when the boxes are packed."
Anyway, she doesn't want to get involved in this matter anymore.
Otherwise she would be upset.
That little bitch had better not do anything naughty outside, otherwise I will beat her up when I see her.
After she settled the matter, she quickly changed the subject: "But if Huanhuan doesn't take over your job, what about your work quota?"
If she really set her sights on Xiao Cheng, she felt that both of them had to join the army even if they were reluctant.
After all, she is an experienced person, and who doesn’t want to be with their partner in the early days of marriage?
The pain of being separated is not easy to bear.
We only see each other a few times throughout the year. How is this different from not being married?
"I really need to think about this carefully." After deciding to be with Comrade Cheng, the first thing Jiang Shuangshuang thought of was to let her elder sister take over the job. It was also the only option.
She had the same idea as Xu's mother, thinking that her elder sister would not refuse, and she did not expect that the procedures for returning to the city would be so troublesome.
She said: "This job quota is definitely not for sale. Although it would earn a lot of money, it is totally unnecessary."
Although we will only have less than ten years to get through this special era, having a stable job can at least guarantee stability for the next twenty years.
Compared to receiving a lump sum payment, she would definitely choose to keep this job, especially since the unit is still under the Public Security Bureau. This job means safety when there are greater turmoil in the next few years.
"Who do you plan to let take over?"
Xu's mother's question made Jiang Shuangshuang a little hesitant, because she really couldn't choose a second person except her eldest sister.
The people in the old house definitely don't have to think about it. If they give this job to someone else, they must be crazy.
But there are only three of us in the family, so there is no other choice.
Xu Yingxia hesitated for a moment, then said uncertainly: "Why don't you let your two cousins take over? They... forget it, let's think of other ways."
She wanted to say that they were trustworthy, so she let one of her nephews take over the job first, and then if Huanhuan was willing to come back in the future, she could take over. Or she could let Jiang Xiaozhou take over the position after graduation.
But she was also afraid that interests were too tempting to deceive people. Everything might sound good now, but no one could be sure what would happen in the future.
"They can't." Jiang Shuangshuang shook her head. "My job requires a certain level of education, otherwise I wouldn't be so distressed."
Not to mention high school graduation, you must have at least one elementary school graduation certificate.
Although my two cousins could read and count, my uncle only sent them to school for one or two years and did not finish their studies. They went to school but did not get a diploma.
Maybe you can get preferential treatment in other units, but not in the Public Security Bureau.
She rubbed her temples and said, "I'll think of something."
Who would have thought that a month ago, she was still worrying about a work target and making her own plans, while Mother Xu was also planning to let her take over her job first.
But now, only a month has passed, and she is already worried about who will take over her job.
However, while Jiang Shuangshuang was still thinking, someone had already set his sights on her.
The news that her boyfriend was visiting her home spread to the old house the next day. They even knew who he was, what job he did, and even his monthly salary.
Because of the division of the family, the people from the third house rarely gathered together. But this time, they all ran to the old man and the old lady's room after work. At first, no one got to the point and they just chatted here and there. As it was getting dark, Jiang Si's wife couldn't sit still and spoke first: "Sister-in-law, isn't it time for your Miao Miao to find a partner? She should learn from her sister. She found a deputy group leader right away. She has a bright future."
Mrs. Jiang felt a little sad.
Isn't it a promising future? The daughter of the third elder brother's family is much more powerful than they imagined. They originally thought that she was difficult to deal with, but now it seems that she has a good chance. She found such a good target right away.
Who wouldn’t be jealous?
If they really had such a good son-in-law, not only would they be proud of it, but they would also be able to help their brother-in-law. The deputy head of the group gets a lot of allowances, so how could they spend it all?
Isn't this a good opportunity to help my mother's family?
"You don't have to worry too much, I would say." Seeing her face turn sour, Jiang Si's wife continued, "The reason why Shuangshuang was able to find such an excellent partner is because she is excellent. She graduated from high school and works in the Public Security Bureau, so the partner she picked will naturally not be bad..."
Then he got to the point, "If your Miaomiao could have a job like this, wouldn't she be able to raise her requirements a little higher? By then, not to mention being the deputy head of the group, she could also find a partner in the Public Security Bureau."
What meaning could her words have?
It was nothing more than asking her eldest sister-in-law to fight for this work quota. "Since there is no suitable candidate to take over from the third sister-in-law, can't your Miaomiao be used? Although she has not been to high school, she is still a junior high school student. She has the education and age, and she is also a sensible and well-behaved child. She will definitely thank Shuangshuang, her cousin, in the future. Why don't you go and ask her?"
But there was no surprise. Jiang Dasao simply waved her hand and refused, "No, no, my Miaomiao doesn't have the ability to do this job. I think it's better for your daughter to go. She is not much different in age from Miaomiao."
The more he talked, the more he thought it was a good idea, and he even suggested it to her, "I think this is a good idea. You have always been close to your third sister-in-law. If you ask her, she will definitely not refuse."
Mrs. Jiang Si laughed twice with a forced smile. She was not a fool. How could anyone be encouraged to look for Xu Yingxia just because of these two words?
But then again, no one is a fool, so no matter how tempted they are, it is impossible for them to really find Xu Yingxia to ask for work targets.
Can't they guess what the outcome will be?
Now the entire family compound...
No, the whole area under the jurisdiction of the street office knew Jiang Shuangshuang's name. Others could fight three people alone, but she could fight a group alone!
Who dares to touch her head?
Not only will they not get any benefits, but the beating will be in vain. Why do they bother with all this energy?
However, I don't dare to try it myself, but I can let others try. If it fails, they can just watch the fun. If it succeeds, they may not lose the advantage.
In the minds of Jiang Dasao and Jiang Sisao, the other party is particularly easy to control. If the other party really gets the work quota from Jiang Shuangshuang, they will be able to get a piece of the pie.
Anyway, whether it was the eldest sister-in-law of Jiang or the fourth sister-in-law of Jiang, they all believed in the same thing in their hearts, that is, don't mess with Xu Yingxia's family. Whoever makes her have a good daughter-in-law is someone they dare not mess with.
They just take advantage of you in private.
At the same time, they were unwilling to take Jiang Ersao out to play.
She also has a concubine, but this concubine is too sinister. She even dared to send her own brother to the farm for transformation. Now she has something on each of their families. Who knows if she will send them to the farm in a fit of rage.
So the two of them chatted with each other, but ignored Jiang Ersao who was standing next to them. However, this matter really had nothing to do with Jiang Ersao.
Her children either went to the countryside or were sent to farms for transformation. The only one left was Jiang Nannan. But now she already has a job and would not compete for the work quota in Jiang Shuangshuang's hands.
Sometimes they really hoped that the two would fight, one ruthless and the other cunning, and that they would both be defeated. Who knows, they might even be able to stand by and reap the benefits.
It’s a pity that Jiang Nannan is too tolerant.
Or maybe she was cautious and didn't dare to take action against Xu Yingxia's family, so she only dared to bully them at home.
Just like now, when she heard them talking about Jiang Shuangshuang, she didn't care at all. She really didn't want to listen and just walked out. But Jiang Qing felt very uncomfortable when she heard it.
She really couldn't remember who Jiang Shuangshuang married in her previous life.
In her previous life, Jiang Shuangshuang and Cheng Jin had never had any contact. The richest man named Ma pursued her for two years but failed to win her over. After giving up, he married another wife.
But who did she end up with?
The only thing Jiang Qing remembered was that in her previous life, she did not work at the Public Security Bureau, but took over her third sister-in-law's job. If she had also taken over her third sister-in-law's job in this life, she probably would not have met that deputy head of the group, right?
In other words, if she hadn't been reborn, how could Jiang Shuangshuang have met such a good partner?
The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. Her rebirth did not make her life better. Instead, other people's lives were getting better because of her.
Jiang Shuangshuang got a job and found such a good partner.
Jiang Nannan did not marry a cripple, and now she is a temporary worker in a textile factory. No one knows how she coaxes people, but her mother said that the team leader in their workshop particularly values Jiang Nannan, and she might be able to become a regular employee in less than a year.
They are all better than her, but if it weren't for her rebirth, how could they have such a good life?
But her situation is getting worse and worse.
After a while, she will divorce the cripple and have to bear the status of a divorcee. No matter how she thinks about it, it is not worth it.
Especially when he heard these people talking about Jiang Shuangshuang, he became more and more annoyed. He stood up and left the room, slamming the door loudly when he left.
There was a loud bang, startling everyone in the room.
"Is she crazy? We didn't make her angry, why is she so angry for no reason?" Fourth Sister Jiang rolled her eyes. In the past, because of Old Lady Wang, she had to pretend even if she didn't like her sister-in-law. Who let Old Lady Wang control all the money and tickets in the family? As long as she could make her favorite old lady happy, her life would be much better.
But now that the money he earned is his own, who would care whether the old lady likes it or not? The old couple has already lost all their money, and in the end, no matter how much he coaxes and tolerates her, he will get nothing in the end.
Sister Jiang asked curiously, "I heard that she wants to divorce Fang Shuiping. Is it true?"
Jiang Sisao also looked at Old Lady Wang with a gossipy look on her face. "I heard that too, mother. Don't let your sister-in-law mess around. Your reputation won't be so good after the divorce. It might even cause us to be embarrassed outside."
"What does her divorce have to do with you? Besides, what ability can a cripple have? Your sister will only suffer if she follows him. It's better for her to get a divorce." Old Mrs. Wang had always looked down on this son-in-law, and after what she had dreamed about, she began to look forward to it.
Just grit your teeth and bear it for ten years. By then, no matter whether it is Jiang Shuangshuang or Jiang Nannan, no matter how powerful they are, what can they do? Can two little girls be so powerful that they can earn over ten thousand yuan a year?
"How can you say that? You've only been married for a short time and you're already asking for a divorce. Aren't you treating marriage like a joke? And I've also heard people say that my sister-in-law got married on purpose to avoid having to go to the countryside. If this is investigated..."
Mrs. Jiang Si actually doesn't like to meddle in other people's business.
It was just gossip at first, but after hearing the old lady say that, she felt angry.
If the matter is really investigated, he might be sent to a farm for reform like Jiang Xiaopeng from my second brother's family. We all have the same surname, so how could there be no impact?
Just because Jiang Xiaopeng was born in the Jiang family, her team leader has made it clear that she will definitely not be included in the evaluation of outstanding workers in the next two years.
In addition to her own good performance, family factors were also taken into consideration. When outsiders heard that there was a "bad guy" in her family who was sent to a farm for reform, how could she have a chance to be selected for the award?
If there is another one, she won't be rated as an excellent worker for the next two years, or even for her entire life, and promotion or salary increase will have nothing to do with her.
"How can it be so serious?" Old Lady Wang's heart skipped a beat. "Isn't it normal for couples to get divorced if they can't get along?"
"That depends on the timing."
"Mom, I won't talk about others, just ask yourself, why do you think my younger sister married Fang Shuiping?"
“…” Old Mrs. Wang was speechless.
What other reason could it be? Of course it was to avoid going to the countryside.
"Look." Jiang Sisao waved her hands, "You know it yourself, how can you explain it to others?"
"Okay, stop talking." Old Man Jiang tapped his cigarette holder. "If anyone asks, just say it's not true. Even if your sister wants to divorce, she won't do it at this critical moment. If it takes longer, no one will say anything."
Now that the old man had spoken, it was difficult for others to say anything more.
But after talking for so long, it’s time to get down to business.
Mrs. Jiang's eyes fell on a corner of the wall. "Dad, can we take these cloth bags out to exchange for money?"
The house was small to begin with, and with so many people and the huge bags piled high in the corner, it seemed even more crowded.
But they are happy.
There were a total of thirty-two large bags in this room and the other two rooms, which cost three hundred and twenty yuan.
Most of this money was borrowed by them. Each of the three sisters-in-law went back to her parents' home to borrow a lot, and with their own private money, they barely scraped together a hundred yuan.
Jiang Nannan's girl was really amazing. I don't know who she asked, but she actually borrowed 200 yuan from. Except for the money she kept for buying food for this month, she used all the money to buy defective cloth from the textile factory.
At first everyone was quite worried.
I was wondering whether this thing could succeed. After all, who wouldn't be nervous when investing more than 300 yuan at once?
But compared to their previous worries, now they are all filled with ecstasy.
How could I not like it?
Although the issue of textile mills selling defective fabrics has ended, it is not completely over.
The textile factory ended up selling 600 large bags and 600 small bags.
They are ten yuan and five yuan respectively. Now some people are willing to pay more to buy these large and small bags.
"Mrs. Tang came to me today and said she was willing to spend 60 yuan to buy five large bags. I think the price is pretty good. Why don't we sell them?"
"Someone has come to ask about it here, too. The price is fifty cents less than what my sister-in-law said, but I can talk to her and should be able to raise the price to twelve yuan for a big bag." Fourth Sister Jiang also spoke up, her eyes starting to shine as she looked at the cloth bags.
A big bag can earn two yuan, so this time they can earn 66 yuan! It is equivalent to Xiaoguo's four or five months' salary.
At this time she still felt a little regretful. If she had known earlier, she should have borrowed more money from her parents' home so that she could buy more and earn more. She heard that one family directly bought fifty big bags, which were sold out on the same day, and they easily earned a hundred yuan.
"There's no rush." Old man Jiang smiled, a rare occurrence.
How could he not laugh?
He also understood the calculations made by his daughter-in-law and was particularly glad that he had made the decision. It turned out that if you want a family to prosper, you still need a smart person to lead the way.
But I still feel it's a pity. It would be better if Jiang Nannan was a boy. But she is a girl, and she will get married and leave sooner or later.
Even if she has some smart ideas by then, she will use them to make money for her husband's family. Why would she care about her own family?
He was sure of one thing: before Jiang Nannan got married, he would follow whatever decision she made.
Less hesitation, less procrastination.
In this way, he could rely on her to make more money during the time she stayed at home, so he agreed to what Jiang Nannan said to him yesterday without even thinking about it, "I have other uses for the 25 big bags, and you can find someone to sell the remaining seven."
"Any other use?"
"What's it for?"
"How much money can we get back? Jiang Nannan is so capable, if she sells it, the price should be higher than what we sell it for, right?"
Everyone was staring at Old Man Jiang. After all, this was about how much they could earn.
But Old Man Jiang shook his head and said, "I have to lose two yuan for each pack."
"How can that be possible?"
"The loss is more than just two dollars. We could have sold it for two dollars more, but now we're losing two dollars. In total, we're losing four dollars for one bag, right?"
If you do the math, the loss is nearly a hundred bucks!
"No, no, how can we do business at a loss?"
"Dad, you can't let her do whatever she wants. How long will it take us to earn this much money?"
"Yeah, it's not like we can't sell them, so why should we lose money..."
"Shut up!" Old Man Jiang slapped the table and glared at them. "Are you idiots? Why don't you use your brains to think about it? Since I know it can be sold, would I sell it at a loss if there is no other benefit?"
Look, it's really a room full of idiots!
But Old Man Jiang had completely forgotten about it. When Jiang Nannan mentioned it to him, his first reaction was to refuse, which was no different from the reactions of everyone else present. It was not until Jiang Nannan explained it to him that he understood.
Just like he is explaining to the person in front of him now.
It’s a very simple truth. We all know that if it is a best-selling product, why would we sell it at a loss?
There must be a reason for that.
The room was noisy and noisy, and Jiang Nannan outside also heard what was going on inside. It was actually quite tiring to drag such a group of people around, especially since she had to explain and explain every time... no one could understand her thoughts at all.
But not too soon, she definitely won't do a transaction that would result in a loss.
There must be a reason why he could do this. All 25 large bags were first sold to the nephew's husband of the workshop director's sister-in-law.
Such a long relationship is nothing more than an attempt to conceal the truth from others.
Twenty-five big bags were sold for two hundred yuan. No matter how much the workshop manager earned from the twenty-five big bags, it had nothing to do with her.
What matters is that she can be transferred.
She is still a temporary worker, but will be transferred from the production line to the office as a recorder. She is different from Jiang Shuangshuang. The only request made by the third aunt back then was to send her two daughters to high school.
The two sisters are also the only daughters of the Jiang family who have obtained high school diplomas, while the other sisters only graduated from elementary school.
Fortunately, even though she had just graduated from elementary school, she had met the requirements for being transferred to an office. It was a bit of a loss, but how could you ask someone to do something for you without giving them some bribes?
In particular, she borrowed two hundred yuan from outside, which was also borrowed from the workshop manager.
This is equivalent to the workshop manager spending two hundred yuan to buy twenty-five large bags, and then being able to resell them at the price of twelve yuan per bag.
After a round trip, I earned a hundred dollars effortlessly.
And this was the idea she came up with for the workshop manager. Everyone in the room was saying that she had lost money, but how much could she actually lose?
How could she have bought so much fabric without the money borrowed from the workshop manager?
But if he hadn't come up with this idea on behalf of the workshop manager, how could he have lent her two hundred yuan for no reason?
Everyone thought the workshop manager made a lot of money, but in fact, the small loss she suffered was quite worth it.
The money just passed into her hands. She took a lot of effort to move the things back and transport them out, and then she put a little money back in, but she got a chance to transfer.
Even if you are just a small recorder in an office, it is much better than a worker on a production line.
The people and things she comes into contact with are different, so she is more likely to find opportunities.
What she lacked was opportunity.
Jiang Nannan turned her head to look at Jiang Qing who was cursing under her breath. She asked, "Do you remember anything about the dream you mentioned earlier?"
This question made Jiang Qing's face even uglier.
Jiang Nannan understood at a glance that there was definitely nothing.
But I wasn't too disappointed. Although I had expected it, my expectations were very low. After all, things that are too mysterious are hard to grasp, and I feel more secure relying on myself.
Jiang Qing was very anxious, "Is there no other way?"
Jiang Nannan found it funny. "Yes, but you can't get what you want without paying anything, right?"
This person's habits are really terrible. After getting along with my aunt for a long time, I don't feel angry when I hear the stupid words coming out of her mouth. Instead, I find it funny.
Jiang Qing is a person with clear goals.
Her goal is clearer than her goal.
But what's the use?
What else did she do besides being clear about her goals?
She would just anxiously ask if there was any other way.
Yes, of course.
But how could she help her?
Isn't it ridiculous to expect her help without giving anything in return?
The expression on Jiang Qing's face turned very ugly in an instant. It's not that she didn't notice the mocking look on Jiang Nannan's face, but no matter how hard she tried to recall, she couldn't remember anything else.
What I can remember are the memories.
But those memories were of no help to her anymore.
Without any bargaining chips, but wanting Jiang Nannan's help, she bit her lip, lowered her attitude and bowed her head to her: "Just help me, and I will definitely not forget you when I become rich. How about a house? I will give you a commercial building. It was your elder...you spent a lot of effort to buy it in your dream!"
"Commercial building? House?" Jiang Nannan looked up. She was now squeezed into a room with several sisters.
At first, a wooden board was nailed to the wall. It was a very narrow board that would roll down if you turned over slightly.
Later, as she got older, the wooden board could no longer support her weight.
She could only squeeze into one bed with her other sisters.
Shoulders pressed against shoulders, making it difficult to even turn over.
It was really a torture for someone like her who was easily startled. If the sister next to her turned around slightly, she would be startled and wake up.
I woke up fifteen times a night and it was very difficult to get a good night's sleep.
If she could own a house of her own, even if it was just a small room, she would definitely be very happy.
Jiang Nannan suddenly became interested. She asked, "In your dream, what will my future be like?"
Jiang Qing pulled the corner of his mouth, "Very good."
At least much better than her.
Jiang Nannan raised her eyebrows, "Is it better than what I have now?"
"..." Jiang Qing was silent after hearing this question.
She didn't really want to answer this question because the answer was yes.
On the contrary, her life became worse and worse. Even though her life was not happy when she married Cheng Jin in the last life, at least she had enough food and clothing, and her life was still pretty good in the first few years.
But now, she married a...
no!
The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. She really couldn't wait any longer. "I have to go to the street office. Aunt Ma should be released soon. I have to build a good relationship with her and get her on my side."
"...As long as you're happy." Jiang Nannan was speechless. She watched her leave in a hurry without giving any warning. Sometimes she laughed at her stupidity, and sometimes she really didn't know what to say.
Since you like Comrade Ma so much, why don't you take the trouble to find out about his family situation first?
Rather than trying to get along well with Old Lady Ma to win Comrade Ma's favor, it would be better to send Old Lady Ma directly to jail.
Counting the days, it is indeed almost time for Old Lady Ma to be sent back.
The past half month has passed so quickly that Majian doesn't even know whether he wants time to go faster or slower.
I went slower because I hoped my mother wouldn't come back so early.
The faster they go, the more they want to complete the formalities, pack their bags and leave immediately. They don’t even want to stay here for the New Year!
After that frank discussion, the two made their decision and immediately returned to the Li family to discuss it.
The Li family was reluctant at first.
But Li Zhen had already fallen in love, so he didn't continue to hold on. After all, going to a faraway place, no one would know Doudou's situation, and it would only benefit him and not harm him.
And to be honest, this is also a good thing for the Li family.
Li Zhen also made it clear that if she left her job it would be to let her eldest nephew take over, so that her son would not have to worry about going to the countryside next year.
Arrangements have been made for the older son and the younger one will be able to take over the family job in two years, so both children can stay in the city.
And today happens to be the day when Li Zhen and his eldest nephew take over the job.
Butcher Li is an old employee of the butchery, and with him leading the shift, the handover was easy to accomplish. It was not a difficult task in the first place, as both parties had no objection and the slaughterhouse would not hinder it.
But privately, many people are still curious.
"I thought Li Zhen would give up her job next year, why did she let her nephew take over so early?"
"Why else? Li Zhen is married. This job was obtained by the Li family. If she doesn't take it back now, is she going to support the Ma family and raise children for them?"
"Yeah, I really don't know what she was thinking at the time. She could have married anyone else but a man with three children. She would have worked hard to raise the children for someone else, but when they grow up, they may not remember her kindness."
"Three? Aren't they a son and a daughter?"
"We brought another one back from a relative. They said something happened to the child at home, so they had to take him in to raise him first."
"Well, the Li family is just hypocritical anyway. How nice they said before? They would never show favoritism to their sons and daughters. But now that their daughter is married, they have taken back her job. If they really weren't partial, how could they be so anxious?"
Some of the rumors outside had reached the Li family.
Li Zhen actually felt quite guilty. Her family had had a bad reputation over the years, and it was mostly because of her.
Originally, it was because of the times she was cheated on by men, from when she was in her early twenties until now when she is in her seventeen or twenty-eighties.
Now, my family is being questioned because of work.
Even if some of the words were not spoken to her, she knew how unpleasant they were just by thinking about it, "It's all my fault. I didn't listen to the advice and insisted on being with him..."
"Okay, it's been so many years since then." Butcher Li patted her shoulder. "Didn't Dad tell you that you should always look forward. Look, haven't your family been doing well these years?"
He really didn't think it was a big deal.
It's just a bad reputation, but so what?
If those people want to buy some pork, don't they have to come to him?
He's tired of hearing a bunch of nice words, so it's just right for him to hear some unpleasant words to spice things up.
He continued, "Although we are so far apart that it will be hard for us to meet often, it is good to think that you have moved on. We can start over again. Dad hopes that you will live better and better."
Li Zhen promised solemnly, "I will."
Only if she lives a better and better life can she repay her family for their care and love for her over the years.
"I also believe that you can do it." Butcher Li really thought that Li Zhen could do it. Li Zhen was the one who was most affected by the rumors outside in recent years. It was really not easy for a girl to persevere in the face of so many unpleasant words.
But their Li Zhen is strong enough.
Maybe she was feeling sad inside, but she didn't show any fear. She didn't give up or feel sorry for herself. Instead, she learned the skill of killing pigs from him.
No worse than her brothers.
So he believed that such a strong Li Zhen would be able to live well even if he moved to a strange city. "My father has only known Ma Jian for a short time. He is weak and has no opinions, which is a lot of bad things. But being weak also has its advantages. You are strong and he is weak, so your family doesn't have to worry about you being bullied outside."
At first, I really looked down on such a cruel son-in-law.
But later he found that being afraid was a good thing, so he listened to Li Zhen in everything. He was not afraid to go west or east when asked to do so. Without being urged, he went directly to the factory to complete the procedures for Li Zhen to collect his salary.
All the family assets, keys and certificates were handed over to Li Zhen.
That means letting Li Zhen take charge directly.
Unlike ordinary couples, the woman is the breadwinner and the man is the homemaker. This makes it harder for Li Zhen to shoulder all the responsibilities, but he understands his daughter. Compared to relying on a man, she actually prefers to be self-reliant and take on all the responsibilities on her own.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have worked so hard to learn the skill of slaughtering pigs from him over the years.
He saw clearly that besides her talent, she had put in countless drops of sweat, otherwise how could she be compared with her brothers?
Therefore, he was not worried at all about separation but was reluctant to do so.
We are really too far apart, and I don’t know when we will meet again after this separation.
But it was a done deal, so he couldn't show too much sadness, otherwise Li Zhen would not be able to leave with peace of mind.
Trying his best to suppress his sadness, Butcher Li took out a small package he had prepared and handed it to Li Zhen directly after returning home: "Take this."
"What is it?" Li Zhen took it and looked at it, then immediately returned it. Butcher Li stopped him and said in a very strong tone, "Just take it. I've discussed it with your brothers. You can't take this job for free. Just take the money."
Although this job was found for Li Zhen by her family.
But he had said before that sons and daughters were the same. It didn't make sense that the two sons had jobs but the daughters were left out. It was given away and you couldn't ask for it back. If you want it, you have to spend money to buy it!
He continued, "It's not much, only about 500 yuan. You're at a loss."
It was a real loss, but their family really couldn't afford any more money.
The young couple had intended to leave a long time ago, but why did they only complete the procedure now?
Because they had also been looking for connections before, and found someone from an electrical factory to exchange jobs with. Then the eldest grandson could go directly to work at the electrical factory and continue to occupy Majian's room.
However, that room was exchanged with a director of the motor factory.
I moved directly from a tube-shaped building to a single room in a large mansion, and these relationships also cost the family a lot of money.
But the result is still good. The eldest grandson has a job and a house. When the time comes, the two grandsons can move out directly, and the house will be much more spacious.
I did spend a lot of money, but it wasn't a loss at all.
Li Zhen was the one who suffered the loss. It was hard to get a job in the first place, and if she sold it to someone else now, it would cost at least 600 yuan. But apart from some reserve money, her family could only come up with 500 yuan.
Butcher Li was adamant and forced Li Zhen to accept the money no matter what. The offer was already small to begin with, and if Li Zhen still refused to accept it, he, as a father, would feel even worse.
After several rounds of pushing and pulling, Li Zhen accepted it reluctantly, but in his heart he was thinking about finding a way to return it.
Butcher Li had no idea what she was thinking. Seeing that she didn't continue to refuse, he smiled and asked, "When do you plan to leave?"
Li Zhen paused, "The train this weekend."
Majian really wanted to leave quickly and bought the train ticket early. If his work had not been settled, he would have wanted to leave overnight.
