When Li Yingtao's day off came, she immediately rode her bicycle back to the brigade so that her brothers could prepare in advance.
If they are not on the recommendation list of the brigade or commune, they can still take the factory recruitment exam.
Several brothers and cousins were all ready to fight, "Then let's hurry up. I heard that they give priority to junior high and high school students. We have a good family background and have studied. As long as no one deliberately makes things difficult for us, there won't be any big problems.
But I still listen to Yingtao and take a look at the book. If I slip through the net, I can take the test again based on my own ability."
Li Yingchao asked his sister, "Does the exam have a specific scope?"
Li Yingtao thought for a moment and said, "The written test for a technical worker position may involve knowledge of mechanical principles and electrical engineering.
When I came here, I borrowed a few books from Yuling. You should take a good look at them. Many people wanted them this time. It’s not like the time when Sister Fen and I asked for one and then rejected the other.
You just study hard and surpass those outside, and you will be better than them..."
My uncle's cousin hasn't even gotten married yet. My brother and cousin both married their wives last year, and the two wives are eager to try. "What about us? Are you hiring female workers too?"
Her sister-in-law was in the out-of-town team, and Li Yingtao didn't like her very much. But she was more cheerful than anyone else at the moment, "Oh, what are you afraid of? Isn't my cousin a big boss in the factory? There are so many people being recruited this time, it shouldn't be difficult for her to arrange one or two."
Before anyone else could say anything, Yuling's sister-in-law sulked first, "Don't even mention that Yuling doesn't necessarily have the final say. Even if she does, she'll need to have real ability to speak up.
Otherwise, all the furs and dogs will be put in jail because of their connections, and if they don't work and affect the operation of the factory, when they are blamed, will the cats and dogs be able to bear it or will she be able to bear it?"
Song Pingping looked embarrassed. She was not afraid of her own mother-in-law, but she was a little afraid of her aunt.
Li Yingchao pulled his wife, "What nonsense are you talking about? My cousin hasn't even opened the back door to her cousins. Go back and cook."
He regretted being so greedy for beauty back then. A person's character can be seen from his life.
Li Yingtao turned her face away in embarrassment. The daughter-in-law she married into the family at the same time, her cousin Kong Feng, was much better than her sister-in-law.
If you hadn't heard it, no one would have said such nonsense.
Kong Feng refilled everyone's tea and said, "As long as all the men in our family can be recruited, it's already pretty good. If there are more, it will be conspicuous.
Especially Yingze, you should work hard. Your brother and Yingying are already married. If you become a worker, when your mother finds you someone else, the family of the person you choose will be different."
Zhou Hongfang liked to hear this, "The eldest daughter-in-law is right, read your books carefully and teach me according to your ability.
As the operas say, officials and those who have made great achievements since ancient times have to be selfless. Those who take the cat path and the rat path won't last long. I have sneaked in like this, and there will be a day when we will be implicated..."
The matter was finalized, especially by my uncle and his wife, who were particularly adamant, "You can go to the captain's house, but you are not allowed to go through Yuling's back door."
Zhou Hongfang added on for the man, "Those who need to read should pick up the books quickly. In a team, if a family is fully staffed with people who have been educated, there wouldn't be enough to fill up a full hand.
If we really follow the letter Yingtao brought, we should first recruit those of you who have graduated from junior high school and high school. At worst, you have spent all this money from your family, you can't all go to waste, right?
Even if you don't eat or sleep, you should still make a name for yourself. Don't let others laugh at our Li family."
When Li Yingfen returned with the man-child, the meeting had already ended. She tugged at Zhou Hongfang's sleeve and asked, "Did they say that educated youth who have started families are not allowed to have children?"
Zhou Hongfang thought for a moment and said, "I haven't heard of this. You can go to the commune tomorrow and ask. But your son-in-law and you already have a plan, so he's not included in this recruitment."
Li Yingfen waved her hand nonchalantly, "I didn't say to recommend him. Didn't I say that the county has a recruitment exam? Go and give it a try. What if he succeeds?"
Zhou Hongfang slapped her daughter gently. "You're so stupid! He's gone, and you and your mother are going to stay here? You don't have to work hard now. You're well fed, well cared for, and taken care of. Why are you scrambling for this?"
Li Yingfen rubbed her arms and lowered her voice. "I'm not stupid. If he passes the exam, I'll be his family member. The factory will give me priority when they recruit next time."
Zhou Hongfang stoked the fire in the stove and said, "Then go take the exam yourself. Isn't that better than having your son-in-law help you?"
Li Yingfen said seriously, "Mom, you don't understand. I'm more capable than him in every way, so he just hides behind me and enjoys his life, not worrying about anything. Now I'm pushing him to the front, so he can take on the responsibilities of a man, put down roots, and stop thinking about going back..."
Kong Feng came in with a winnowing basket, and the mother and daughter avoided this area and started talking about what books their sons were reading at the moment.
Upon hearing this, Li Yingfen wiped her hands on her apron and said, "I'll go tell Jian Pengyu and ask him to come and see. It will be easier for him to tinker with it."
Kong Feng held her sister-in-law in hand and said, "Uncle-in-law and your brother have already taken a fancy to her and are discussing it with each other. Don't worry, think about yourself, what are your plans? Or maybe you can try taking the exam yourself."
Li Yingfen shook her head. "I won't go this time. We have so many elderly people in our family. If they all get in, even if they don't use the backdoor, it will be like that. I don't want to end up with nothing. I should focus on the important people first and ask my brother and Yingze to put in more effort."
Before Kong Feng got married, her parents asked someone to find out about the family's traditions and the children's qualities.
After she got married, as expected, her mother-in-law was smart and her sister-in-law, although a bit strong-willed, was like her parents in terms of right and wrong and was very clear-headed.
She now sincerely advised her, "Go ahead and give it a try. Everyone has their own path. As long as we pass the exam honestly, we won't be afraid of investigations. Can it be that our parents, who support us and want us to be ambitious, can make mistakes?"
"this?"
Zhou Hongfang pulled out the torch and stuffed it into the ashes to put it out. "Listen to your sister-in-law. If you are upright, you have nothing to fear. We know what we have done and what we have not done, so we are not afraid."
In this case, Li Yingfen had to pick up what she needed to pick up. "That's fine too. Raking grass to catch rabbits, whatever you have is yours. Whoever has the ability will get it."
The people in the commune knew about the Li family's connections, so they naturally wouldn't make things difficult for them, but they only gave one place to each family.
When the team leader delivered the message to Zhou Hongfang and her husband, he said, "Your eldest and third children are in high school and junior high school respectively, so there should be no problem.
But we can't let it all fall on your family, and the second family's Premier League is also a junior high school student. Two out of three are already a lot."
