Chapter 875: Really Half-Sisters
On the way back in the car, Xiao Shiqiu held the steering wheel and suddenly chuckled: "Your aunt is quite interesting. She surprised me a little today."
I thought he was surprised by my aunt's greed, so I leaned back in my seat and sighed weakly, "Alas, she's always like this, always thinking others owe her something."
"I think there are actually two things that surprised me. First, I thought she would ask me to help her find a job, but she didn't even mention it today."
Yes, I just realized that my aunt only thought about finding a job for my uncle. Why didn't she think about her own job? Did she plan to be a full-time housewife after coming to City A?
"Could it be that my aunt has a change of heart and feels embarrassed to trouble you with both of their work?" I couldn't believe what she said.
Xiao Shiqiu stared ahead and spoke slowly, "Secondly, you said she and your uncle were college classmates. How could someone with a decent education be so short-sighted as to refuse social security and want to cash it all out?"
Xiao Shiqiu's words reminded me, "No, I have to ask my uncle if he has ever paid social security before. Don't let my aunt fool you into not even paying social security.
This doesn't take retirement into consideration at all. Ziting will be under a lot of pressure in the future."
Xiao Shiqiu chuckled and remained noncommittal, "I don't know what he was thinking, I just think it's not very reasonable for her to do this.
If she doesn't plan to work and is prepared to rely on your uncle for support, then it seems that she really hasn't considered the issue of their retirement."
I nodded. "Maybe she feels confident because she has a son and a daughter. She wants to raise her daughter like her and have her son-in-law give her money every month."
Is it so easy to find a fool like my uncle?
Xiao Shiqiu glanced at me and said, "But your uncle is quite down-to-earth. I can tell he's the kind of guy who works hard."
I nodded. "My uncle is an okay person. His values are pretty normal. He just listens to my aunt too much."
Xiao Shiqiu pondered for a moment: "In fact, if he really performs well, it is not impossible for him to get a promotion and a raise in the future.
The promotion path at STG is very transparent, and as long as you have the ability, it is not impossible to earn a million yuan a year."
I turned my head to look at him: "Why didn't you just say it directly?"
The corners of his lips curled up slightly: "Some things need to be earned by themselves. If you give it too easily at the beginning, they won't cherish it."
I couldn't help but laugh: "Boss Xiao, your ability to control people is truly perfect."
He reached out and ruffled my hair: "Isn't it so that your uncle can work steadily and not be annoyed by your aunt's nagging every day?"
I leaned back in my seat, staring at the flashing neon lights outside the window, and suddenly a question occurred to me: "Do you think my aunt will go back and encourage my uncle to change jobs again?"
Xiao Shiqiu chuckled: "No."
"So sure?"
"Because she's already set her sights on the special offer for STG employees." He said firmly, "It's only five years. With the housing prices in City A, she can save two to three million on a house in five years. Isn't that equivalent to an extra few hundred thousand in income per year?"
I looked at him with starry eyes, "What you said made my heart move~"
As Fang Dongmei's interview date draws closer, I'm actually not that nervous anymore.
Taking advantage of the two days of free time, I went back to school and discussed my thesis defense with Lao Yu.
Finally, the always sharp-tongued old Yutou praised me for the first time, saying, "Your paper has a clear structure and solid data. You should have no problem defending it."
I still asked him a little nervously, "What if the defense teacher doesn't pass me?"
Old Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Why not give you a pass? If I don't give you a pass, just let him come to me to argue."
This answer is consistent with Lao Yutou's reputation of being protective of his students. He is the only one who despises his students, and if anyone dares to say a bad word about them, he will attack them to death.
I breathed a sigh of relief. I felt relieved that Old Yu said that.
As I walked out of the office, I happened to meet Pang Xiaomin walking hurriedly with a stack of civil service exam materials.
"Xiaomin!" I called out to her, "Which position are you applying for?"
I am a little curious about what kind of positions we can choose from after taking the civil service exam for our fashion design major.
She stopped, pushed her glasses, and said seriously, "I've researched eight suitable positions and am still struggling to decide which one to choose."
"Eight?" I widened my eyes and gave her a thumbs-up. "You're amazing! You can find eight relevant jobs for our major? Do fashion majors have so many options?"
"Of course!" She counted them off on her fingers like a treasure, "The import and export clothing quality inspection post at the General Administration of Customs, the trademark and patent review post at the Market Supervision Bureau, the intangible cultural heritage clothing protection post at the Culture and Tourism Bureau..."
"The least popular position is the military uniform recycling management position at the Veterans Affairs Bureau," she said, her voice lowered mysteriously. "They say the number of applicants per year doesn't exceed ten, so the competition is low!"
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So you are determined to become a 'tailor within the system'?"
She proudly waved the documents in her hand and said, "Isn't a stable job good? By the way, have you found a job yet?"
"Not yet..." I just opened my mouth when Huang Tianyi's voice suddenly came from behind me: "She's already decided! She wants to open a studio with us!"
I looked at her in confusion. I was the last one to know why I wanted to open a studio.
Huang Tianyi hooked one hand around my neck and with the other hand pulled Ren Qiongying: "Come on, let's go to the milk tea shop to discuss it in detail!"
Half an hour later, the four of us girls squeezed into the corner of the milk tea shop.
Ren Qiongying was passionately sketching a business plan: "Film and television costume design is definitely a blue ocean! Just think about it, with online dramas and short videos being so popular right now, the demand for costumes is huge!"
Su Rina bit her straw and nodded: "Old Ling knows a lot of people, and he can provide us with a lot of resources when the time comes."
Watching them discuss passionately, I weakly raised my hand. "When did it come about that we were going to open a studio together? What did I miss in between?"
Huang Tianyi patted my shoulder soothingly, "I haven't missed out on much. Yingying has always wanted to open a studio, and I was moved by her enthusiasm.
Then tell her that as your half-sister, we want to work hard to start a business, so how can we let you be alone and idle?
I must save you!
Nana thought we were doing the right thing, so she joined in."
Thank you so much! You just can't bear to see me idle!
"Let's discuss the specific details today." Ren Qiongying acted like a strong business woman.
At this moment, my phone rang. It was a message from Captain Wen: "Xiao Fang has encountered a new situation. It might be a clue. Let's meet up this afternoon."
I immediately said to them seriously, "You guys discuss it first, I have something urgent to do and need to leave now.
My opinion is fully represented by Tianyi, her thoughts are my thoughts! "
Under their contemptuous gaze, I drove to the operation center.
