Han Wanying shook her head and said, "It's my own fault. I'm doing pretty well at my job in the county now."
"What a great opportunity! Why did you just give it up like that?"
Han Wanying smiled and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I know what's going on with my own affairs."
Liu Guixiang looked at Han Wanying, shook her head and said nothing more.
The two didn't chat for long. Liu Guixiang still had to take care of Song Qinqin and her grandson, so Han Wanying left after seeing this.
On the way back, Han Wanying saw a lot of people standing under the yellow fruit orchid tree in front of her, discussing something intensely.
Han Wanying didn't want to join in the fun and thought about walking around them, but this was not something Han Wanying could avoid just because she wanted to.
When the group saw Han Wanying, they quickly came forward and looked at her enviously, saying, "Han girl, I heard you're going to college soon. Congratulations."
"Yes, yes, you are the first college student here."
Han Wanying was listening to their words and was about to explain when she heard her aunt, who had spoken ill of her yesterday at the foot of the mountain, come up to her and speak tentatively.
"Han girl, you said you're going to college. How are you going to arrange a job at the machinery factory in the county? You see, we're neighbors, and our eldest son is also planning to go to the county to develop his career. If you can't find someone to take over, he's fine."
Han Wanying looked at the man in front of her who was smiling at her, and she couldn't help but feel a little funny in her heart. He was smiling and talking to her on the surface, but who knows what he was thinking about her in his heart.
Because of this aunt's words, the crowd suddenly exploded. Yes, if Han Wanying went to college, wouldn't the job in the machinery factory be vacant? There was no one else in her family, so wouldn't she have a chance?
Han Wanying looked at everyone's eyes, which were originally envious and jealous, and suddenly became greedy and calculating, and she couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
"I think you aunts may have misunderstood. I didn't say I was going to college. I heard there was a vacancy in this village, but the person is not me. I think you aunts are congratulating the wrong person." She was also congratulating the wrong person, Han Wanying thought to herself.
At this time, someone retorted: "How is it possible? My husband had a meeting with the team leader yesterday afternoon and said that he would give you this quota. How could I be wrong?"
Han Wanying frowned slightly, a trace of irritation creeping up her brows, and she said coldly, "This spot isn't mine, and I don't know anything about the others."
Then Han Wanying turned around and left, leaving the group of people there in a heated discussion.
Han Wanying returned home, took her work tools and headed up the mountain. Duan Hongmin was injured and definitely couldn't go up the mountain to chop firewood during this period. It was still quite cold during this period, so Han Wanying planned to help prepare more.
Nothing unexpected happened on the way up the mountain, probably because everyone went to work.
When they reached the top of the mountain, Han Wanying still felt that her journey had been too smooth. She was a little uncomfortable not meeting some people.
Han Wanying chopped a lot of firewood, put a lot of it in her own space, filled a basket with firewood, and then went down the mountain and went home.
When I came back, I met some people. Everyone had finished work and was preparing to eat.
Fortunately, Han Wanying lived at the foot of the mountain and arrived home quickly.
Han Wanying put all the firewood in her space in her firewood room. When she was about to leave, she told Duan Hongmin and the others that if they ran out of firewood, they could just come to her house to get it without having to go up the mountain to chop firewood.
After Han Wanying prepared everything, she looked at the time and prepared to cook some lunch.
Han Wanying was eating alone and didn't plan to cook a lot of delicious food. She just cooked some porridge with kimchi for a simple lunch.
After lunch, Han Wanying took out a book about mechanics and prepared to read for a while.
Unexpectedly, someone knocked on the door again. Han Wanying put down the book in her hand and went to open the door.
When I opened the door, I saw He Ting, holding a package in her hand.
He Ting saw Han Wanying and said happily, "Xiaoying, have you had lunch?"
Han Wanying nodded. After they entered the house, Han Wanying poured a glass of water for He Ting.
He Ting sat down and opened the things she brought, which contained pastries.
He Ting took a piece and handed it to Han Wanying, "Xiaoying, try it quickly. This is a local specialty that my family sent to me. This pastry is delicious."
Han Wanying reached out to take the pastry, took a bite and found it tasted really good.
He Ting looked at Han Wanying and asked with a smile, "How is it? Doesn't it taste good?"
Han Wanying nodded, "It's delicious."
He Ting pushed the things in front of Han Wanying and said, "These are all for you. Eat more if you like."
Han Wanying didn't refuse, "Thank you, Xiaoting."
In fact, at the beginning, Han Wanying still called He Ting He Zhiqing. He Ting was very dissatisfied with this and insisted that Han Wanying change her name. According to her age, Han Wanying should call He Ting sister, but He Ting thought it was strange for Han Wanying to call her sister, so she asked Han Wanying to call her Xiaoting like herself.
He Ting took a sip of water and suddenly thought of something. She looked at Han Wanying curiously and asked, "I heard that our brigade has a quota for workers, peasants and soldiers to study at university this year?"
Han Wanying nodded and looked at He Ting hesitantly, "Do you want this spot?"
He Ting shook her head and said calmly, "I'm not stupid. How could such a quota fall on a newly arrived educated youth like us? I'm just curious. By the way, I heard someone say that this quota was given to you?"
