Chapter 58: Can’t I open a back door?
Yang Xiufen shook her head. "Then we can't recruit workers. We can only buy them. In this case, I'll keep an eye out for you. There may not be any. After all, there are still few people selling jobs."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you to keep an eye on it." Su Qiuyan was actually a little disappointed. She originally thought that her sister-in-law would directly let Zhou Yu arrange it. After all, he was a factory director, but, well, forget it.
The men over there also talked about the housing issue. Yang Jinsheng asked with a smile, "Brother-in-law, have you and elder sister been allocated houses?" After all, he is a factory director, so he can't still live in the dormitory.
Zhou Yu nodded, his eyes full of joy, "Well, it was arranged before I came. It's in the cannery's staff quarters. The house was built a few years ago. It's on the second floor and has 50 square meters. It's enough for your sister and I to live in."
"You're not going to have kids in the future, are you? But even if you do, you'll have enough space to live in. Look, our house is only 60 square meters, but we can still accommodate so many people."
Yang Fugui felt a little proud when talking about this, after all, their family was quite big.
Yang Jinsheng couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Dad, why are you so proud? We live so crowded!" Then he turned to look at Yang Jinqiang next to him and asked, "By the way, big brother, didn't you get a separate room? When are you moving in?"
Hearing this, Yang Jinqiang paused with a smile on his face, and said helplessly: "Alas, I was too happy at the time. I went to see the small bungalow a few days ago and found that people were still living in it. It was too dirty inside, and some places were leaking. We will have to spend money to repair it. I regret it just thinking about it."
"So what? Can you regret it?"
Yang Jinqiang shook his head. "Of course not. I've already signed it."
"Then you should hurry up and urge them to move in, so that they can pack up and move in as soon as possible."
"Hey, third brother, I finally understand. You are trying to chase me away?" Yang Jinqiang turned to look at his younger brother. Wasn't the implication of his words that he was trying to chase his family away?
Yang Jinsheng naturally couldn't admit it. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother, you are so suspicious. Why would I chase you away? I'm looking forward to you living in the new house. No matter how old it is, it's still your house, right?"
"Big brother, what the third brother said makes sense. You should urge that family to do some repairs when they are on break. We can do it ourselves if we can to save some money. If we can't, we can find someone else to help." Yang Fugui also felt that since he had been allocated a house, he certainly couldn't leave it empty. He would feel at ease only if he lived in it himself.
Since his father has said so, what else can Yang Jinqiang do? He can only urge him!
"But, Dad, we have agreed that we should have dinner at home! It's not far away. Huifen and I are both at work, so it would be too late to go home and cook."
Yang Jinqiang thought about it and decided that if he cooked for himself, the ten yuan a month for food would be too much to afford and it would be troublesome, so he decided to eat at his parents' house!
Yang Fugui glanced at his eldest son and said, "It's up to you."
"Oh, that's great! When can I have my own house?" Yang Jinsheng leaned back in his chair, thinking that by the time he got his own room, his children would probably be married and have their own families.
"What? You want to divide it up too?" Yang Fugui felt a little uncomfortable.
Yang Jinsheng heard it and laughed, "Look at what Dad said. Who doesn't want a room? Besides, even if I'm lucky enough to get a room, I'll still eat here. It's more lively when there are more people eating!"
"I think you want to take advantage of us old couple. How can I not know what you are thinking?" Yang Fugui's mouth curled up slightly. He felt somewhat relieved in his heart. When people get old, they are afraid of being lonely. It doesn't matter even if they pay some money.
At this time, Yang Jinwei also came over and said with a smile: "Dad, I am different from my eldest brother and third brother. I don't want to move out and divide the house. We will stay with you two old people to save you from loneliness."
"Hey, second brother, look at what you said. Don't act like a slut after getting the advantage!" I really didn't realize that my second brother, who looked silent, was actually a mean guy, haha.
Yang Xiufen looked up at the clock on the wall. It was eight o'clock. She called to her husband, "Zhou Yu, it's almost time. You have to go to work tomorrow. You should go home."
"Yes, yes, go back early and take a shower and go to bed! Now that you're back, you'll have plenty of time later." Sun Erni also stood up and took out the things she had prepared and handed them to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu was stunned and looked at his wife, "Hey, Xiufen, what do you think?"
Yang Xiufen nodded and said with a smile, "Just take it if mom gives it to you. There's also a raw pig's stomach inside. We can make some pig's stomach soup tomorrow to nourish ourselves."
"That's great. Add a handful of fried black beans. It will definitely be nutritious. Then give some to my parents as well." Zhou Yu said with a smile.
Sun Erni waved her hand and refused, "You guys can just eat it yourself, we don't need that much. If you want to eat it, just ask Lao San to buy it. You don't have to serve it to us."
Yang Jinqiang put his arm around Yang Jinsheng's neck and said jokingly, "Old Three, you're great. You're better than us."
"That's right. He does this before leaving." Yang Jinwei also said.
Yang Jinsheng pried open his elder brother's hand on his neck and frowned, "Brother, you're strangling me." Then he smiled and said, "Of course, I knew that elder sister liked pig's stomach, so I specially asked someone to keep it."
After seeing off Yang Xiufen and her husband, the rest of the people washed up and went back to their rooms to rest. After all, they all had to go to work the next day.
In Yang Jinqiang's room, Li Huifen sat on the bed with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Huifen, what are you doing? Why are you so quiet? Didn't you eat enough at night?" Yang Jinqiang felt strange. His wife was usually chattering, so when did she become so quiet?
Li Huifen raised her head and rolled her eyes at him. "In your eyes, I am only eating, right?"
"Then tell me, what's wrong with you?" Yang Jinqiang spread his hands, looking helpless.
Li Huifen glanced at the tightly closed door, waved at her husband, and then looked at her two daughters who were sleeping soundly. She deliberately lowered her voice and said, "Originally, I wanted my eldest sister to help me change jobs, from temporary work to regular work. But when Qiuyan mentioned it in the evening, my eldest sister said that it would be difficult to get in with an elementary school education, and I could only rely on money to buy a job, and I had to wait for someone to sell it. After she said that, I couldn't say anything. Do you think it's true?"
In fact, Li Huifen was still a little unwilling to give up. She thought that her brother-in-law was the factory director, so couldn't he open some back doors for his family?
