Time flies.
Before they knew it, it was time for Mu Qiuyue and He Zhenhua's wedding day.
There weren't many outsiders attending the wedding.
After all the calculations, only Cheng Haifeng can be considered an outsider.
Four or five girls from the village were invited.
Of course, the village chief, accountant Liu, and team leader Zhang, this iron triangle, were also invited over.
Setting up about five or six banquet tables is already considered quite good at this time.
"Shen Susu is pregnant."
While cracking sunflower seeds, Zhang Xiuying dropped a bombshell: "It's been about two or three months now, and her family is considering whether she should continue attending school."
"You're not planning to continue teaching while pregnant?"
Yang Shujue raised an eyebrow. "Does her in-laws really want her to do nothing while she's pregnant?"
"She definitely wants to go to class."
Liu Qingqing picked up the conversation, "Her mother-in-law is worried that she might be pushed down by other children at school, or that something might happen to her, so she wants her to stop going to school and stay home to do housework."
"Be careful, everything should be fine."
Peng Shiyu responded while eating chestnuts, "I saw some young wives in the village going to work with big bellies. If Shen Susu doesn't go to teach, her spot will definitely be taken by someone else."
She definitely won't get it back in the future, so she might as well continue teaching. She's been pregnant for three months now, and she'll give birth during the summer vacation. After giving birth, she can go back to teaching. What a great thing!
If she gives up her substitute teaching spot, she'll have to go to work to earn work points after giving birth, which would be even less worthwhile.
"Then it's up to her to choose."
As Yang Shujue applied makeup to Mu Qiuyue, she said, "If she chooses to stay at home now, she will have to go back to work after giving birth."
Of course, continuing to teach will definitely be a bit tough, especially now that the child is older. Standing while teaching is indeed tiring. If she can get through it and have a baby, she won't have to go to work and can continue teaching.
If it were me, I would definitely choose to continue taking classes. It's better than staying at home doing housework. Others might think you're enjoying yourself at home, but there are actually a lot of housework to do, and it's tiring. It's much better to go to class.
Liu Qingqing suddenly said, "Even so, I think she probably won't be able to keep her substitute teaching position."
Peng Shiyu looked over upon hearing this, "What do you mean?"
"I know."
Zhang Limei suddenly spoke up, "Zhiming's aunt's daughter wants this spot."
"So there were other inside stories."
As one of the onlookers, Lin Jingyu finally joined the conversation, "Limei, tell me what's going on. Why are you eyeing the substitute teaching positions at our Shuibu Village School?"
"Didn't Zhiming's aunt marry into the town?"
As a member of the Zhang family, Zhang Limei naturally knew about the Zhang Brigade Leader's family. "Although they live in the town, his aunt's family still makes a living by farming."
Her family lived a similar life to ours, except they had a better reputation and lived in a small town.
I heard that her daughter is a year younger than Zhiming, and she seems to be twenty years old this year. She hasn't found a husband yet, and it seems that everyone is looking down on her family because they are poor.
I heard that Zhiming's aunt didn't want her daughter to marry into families poorer than her own, nor did she want her daughter to marry into a rural family.
She wanted to marry into a good family and become a young mistress, but the families weren't a good match for her.
"I just want to find a job for her daughter so she'll be eligible to marry into well-off families."
At this point, everyone understands what's going on.
Peng Shiyu couldn't help but say, "So, does that mean Shen Susu's substitute teaching position is in jeopardy?"
"It probably can't be saved."
Zhang Limei continued to reveal inside information, "Zhiming's aunt has come several times, and it seems that only Shen Susu hasn't given her consent yet. It seems that the brigade leader's family has all agreed."
"Everyone agrees?"
Yang Shujue sneered, "So, Zhang Zhiming agrees too?"
"How could he disagree? She's his own aunt."
Liu Qingqing continued, "Besides, his aunt is very capable. She keeps saying that Zhiming's family survived because of her charity."
Now that things are better, they don't appreciate her anymore and are unwilling to help her. In short, you often hear her cursing and swearing at the brigade leader's house, and the Zhang family has to agree even if they don't want to.
"Isn't this just outright robbery?"
Yang Shujue scoffed, "She used to help the Zhang family, that's their own business, they can pay it back themselves, why should she take away Shen Susu's substitute teaching spot?"
This isn't just bullying a new bride; it's no different from banditry.
"Shujue, you can't say that."
Zhang Limei had to remind her, "In everyone's eyes, Shen Susu's place belongs to the Zhang family. Besides, Shen Susu's substitute teaching spot is a spot held by Captain Zhang."
"This spot originally belonged to the Zhang family, but now they're willing to give it to Zhiming's aunt's daughter. Even if Shen Zhiqing doesn't want to, there's nothing she can do."
Yang Shujue: ...
She was completely speechless.
Lin Jingyu smiled silently.
She certainly knew Yang Shujue's thoughts, and from a modern perspective, that was indeed the case. Since it was Shen Susu's spot, no one could take it from her if she didn't want it.
Unfortunately, people in this era don't think that way.
What belongs to us is ours, and what belongs to my wife is also ours.
If the Zhang family really gave up their spot, Shen Susu really wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
certainly……
"Actually, as long as Zhang Zhiming is unwilling, no one can take away Shen Susu's substitute teaching spot."
Lin Jingyu, cracking sunflower seeds, said slowly, "Didn't I say that Aunt Zhang Zhiming's family didn't have an easy life before? In this situation, her relief to her family would definitely be limited. It's not like she saved Captain Zhang's family."
