Sister-in-law Su chuckled upon hearing this: "It's alright, I'll talk to her this afternoon and see if she can lower the price a bit, then I'll let you know."
"That job is indeed good. It's easy, you just stay in the office, there's not much pressure. It wouldn't be bad for you to take that job."
As Sister-in-law Su spoke, Su's mother and the others nodded in agreement. After all, all members of the family worked, and they strongly supported having a stable job.
In the afternoon, Su Yujing stayed home with peace of mind, helping her two nephews and nieces with their homework and taking them out to play.
In the evening, Su Yujing bought some vegetables and cooked four dishes and a soup at her parents' home, waiting for her parents, brother, and sister-in-law to come home.
Sister-in-law Su rode her bicycle home and saw her sister-in-law already busy in the kitchen, which was filled with the aroma of food. A smile appeared on her face.
Since getting married, my sister-in-law's temper has improved considerably, and she's not as arrogant as before.
She went back to the kitchen to wash her hands, then went to Su Yujing's side to lend a hand, telling her the good news: "It's all settled then. Tomorrow, take your household registration book to the textile factory, and I'll take you to the personnel department to complete the onboarding process. Just prepare 650 yuan."
"Thank you, sister-in-law. You've gone to so much trouble this time. I'll treat you to tea this weekend."
Why are we being so polite as family?
The two smiled at each other and started preparing the ingredients together.
The voices of Su's father and Jiang Yu could be heard slowly coming from outside. Su Yujing picked up a plate of washed fruit and took it out. When she saw her husband, she pretended to be surprised and asked, "Why are you here too?"
"I noticed you weren't home at noon or in the evening, so I came to check on you."
Jiang Yu explained, then played chess with Su's father for a while. When he noticed his wife was alone, he asked in a low voice, "Why did you go back to your parents' home for no reason?"
"What's wrong with me going back to my parents' house? They're my parents. I'm bored at home, so what's wrong with going back to see them?"
Su Yujing gave a coquettish laugh, then smiled again after a while and said, "I'm not exactly free either. My sister-in-law told me that there's a job opening at her factory and asked if I was interested?"
"You want to go to work?" Jiang Yu looked a little annoyed and frowned slightly. "Didn't I say you don't need to go to work? Just stay home. Will I earn money to support you? Going to work is too tiring. I can't bear to."
Su Yujing thought to herself with a sneer, "He supports me, but his salary goes to his mother-in-law. He only gives me ten or twenty yuan when I ask for it, which isn't even enough to buy a piece of clothing!"
She smiled faintly: "You'll support me? You give all your salary to your mother-in-law, how can you support me? I have to ask my parents for help to buy a piece of clothing."
Jiang Yu's expression immediately changed upon hearing this: "How could you ask Mom and Dad for money? Didn't I give you money when you asked?"
"Yes, it took three or four months. I gave her a total of sixty yuan. I bought groceries and cooked every day. Xiaoyue even asked me to buy meat all the time. My mother-in-law said I didn't earn money and didn't know how hard it was for men to earn money. She told me to save some money."
As she spoke, Su Yujing shook off his hand, pouting and complaining, "In just a few months, I've spent a lot of the money my parents gave me. It's all for nothing, and I've even earned a reputation for wasting money."
"You don't need to give me money anymore. I'll eat at the factory, so I don't need to buy groceries or cook. I guarantee it won't cost me anything. You can just eat at the government canteen from now on."
Su Yujing complained, seemingly both resentful and annoyed, then turned around to help her sister-in-law serve the dishes, leaving her husband, whose expression was uncertain, behind her.
During the meal, Sister-in-law Su put more braised pork on her plate a couple more times: "Come on, eat a couple more pieces. You look like you haven't eaten in a long time, have you? You seem to have lost weight."
Upon hearing this, Su Yujing glanced at her husband, only to see that Jiang Yu's expression was slightly stiff. She then joked, "It's all thanks to your excellent cooking, sister-in-law. I can't make it taste this good at home. If it doesn't taste good, I don't dare to cook it."
"What's so difficult about that? Come over when you have time, and I'll teach you how to do it."
Su Yujing smiled and agreed, then clung to her sister-in-law's arm affectionately.
Sure enough, when the young couple returned home that evening, the sister-in-law angrily complained that Su Yujing had left her alone at home and almost starved to death.
Su Yujing got angry upon hearing this and yelled at her husband: "What? Your mother said Xiaoyun has exams to take, so she's only been here for a few months to make it easier for her to go to school."
"Now that the college entrance exam is over, she's all grown up and can't even cook for herself. Do I, as her sister-in-law, have to serve her? Did I marry into your family just to be your maid?"
Jiang Yu had intended to persuade his wife to give up her job, but before he could even coax her, she flew into a rage, slammed the door shut, and locked it from the inside.
He had no choice but to suppress his thoughts, complain to his younger sister, and plan to discuss it with Su Yujing the next day.
Unexpectedly, the next morning, Su Yujing dressed in a simple suit, took her household registration book and eight hundred yuan, and left home early without even preparing breakfast for her siblings.
After completing the formalities that morning, he stayed at the factory to work. Jiang Yu tried to dissuade him, but it was too late.
Having a job gave her the confidence to refuse, using the excuse that she was too tired. Her sister-in-law wouldn't leave, and she would tell her husband every day that her sister-in-law was lazy and worried that she wouldn't be able to get married in the future. Then, when doing housework, she would call her sister-in-law to help.
After complaining to her for a while, her sister-in-law got tired of staying and quickly left.
...
After saying goodbye to Su Yujing, Ji Xia spent half a day playing in the city with Chen Jing, and returned to the commune that evening.
The school had notified the students in advance to return to school on the third day to check their answers and estimate their scores. Although she was confident, she still went.
When she returned to school, Ji Xia's classmates greeted her and asked her with concern how her exam results were.
Even her homeroom teacher, Ms. Liu, excitedly asked when she saw her, "Ji Xia, how did you do on the exam? Were you confident?"
Ji Xia couldn't help but smile: "I think it's quite simple, I should be about 80% confident I can do it."
