Chapter 307 I’ll pay for it!
"Mom, why are you still locking the door at home? Here, this is the rice cake for you. It's hard to digest, so eat less!" Jiang Xinhong said as she walked in. When she raised her head, she saw her younger sister Jiang Xinbai.
"Xiao Bai is here. Do you want some rice cakes? I have some at home. I'll bring some to you in Shenzhen."
Jiang Xinbai pulled her elder sister to sit down, "No need, we can buy it. Sister, what are you busy with every day? I said I would visit you tomorrow. I have to go back to Shenzhen in two days."
"Well, what else can I do? I can just stay at home and take care of my grandchildren! As your elder sister, I have been busy all my life and never have a moment to rest."
Jiang Xinhong sighed, and then continued: "I really want to ask you something, is the recruitment requirement of the factory in Shenzhen high?"
Jiang Xinbai looked her up and down and said with a smile, "Why? Sister, you still want to work in the factory?"
Jiang Xinhong patted her, "You, you're still teasing me! I'm almost fifty, it's strange that they would want me. It's Shih Hsin and Shih Rong, they want to work in Shenzhen, and I want to ask what's going on there."
"Hey, didn't Shih-hsin Shih-rong work at the cannery? What? Was he laid off too?"
Jiang Xinbai asked with some surprise. When his eldest brother-in-law changed his job, he was the deputy chief of the security department of the steel plant. Later, he gradually became the chief. Then, he used his connections to arrange for his two sons to work in the cannery. They were so envious at that time.
"The layoffs haven't been made clear yet, but they're not far away. We can't even pay the salaries. I heard that the cannery in our county is going to go bankrupt." Jiang Xinhong said in a low voice.
"Is it true? You can't pay me at all? When Jinsheng was working at the meat processing factory, he could still get a basic salary even if he couldn't pay me at all."
"Hey, how can they support their family with just a few dollars? So they thought about taking a leave of absence and going out to work. Isn't it said that the salary in the factories in Shenzhen is high? They can earn three or four hundred a month. Working for two months is equivalent to working for a year in their hometown!"
This is also the reason why Jiang Xinhong is willing to let her two sons go out to work.
“The salary is high, but it’s also tiring.”
"I'm not afraid of being tired, as long as I can make money, if I don't suffer when I'm young, when will I suffer?"
Jiang Xinhong felt that since her son had already started a family, he should take on the responsibility of supporting the family, so it didn't matter if it was a little hard.
Jiang Xinbai nodded in understanding, "That's true, but are Shixin and Shirong the only ones going? What about Dandan and Tingting? Are they staying at home to take care of the kids?"
Jiang Xinhong felt a little embarrassed when talking about this. She sighed and said, "Shixin and Shirong said they would go first. The children at home are still young, and it's not good without their mother's company. But I'm afraid..." Jiang Xinhong glanced at Jiang Xinbai and hesitated to speak.
Jiang Xinbai nodded in understanding, "Sister, I understand what you mean."
"Yeah, you don't know that the son of your brother-in-law's colleague went to Shenzhen in the same year as you. Hey, this kid is just restless. Less than half a year has passed, and I heard that he found a woman outside and ignored his wife and children at home. What do you think is going on?" Jiang Xinhong said with deep worry on her face.
Chen Cui'e quickly retorted: "Xiaohong, this is why you, as a mother, are wrong. How can you not trust your own son? Shixin and Shirong are both good kids. They won't abandon their wives and children. You should just put your heart back in your stomach!"
"Mom," Jiang Xinbai shouted, "I didn't say that Shixin Shirong is bad. I'm just a little worried."
"Yeah, it's different from before. In the past, if you were a slut, you would be paraded through the streets. Now it's too open. Hey, men, you can't do without a woman by your side to keep an eye on you."
"Sister, have you ever thought about letting Dandan and Tingting go with you? If a couple goes to the factory together, they can make money quickly. Three hundred yuan a month per person, and six hundred yuan for two people. They can save money quickly!" Jiang Xinbai is an experienced person and must know that being separated from each other will affect the relationship of a couple to some extent.
Jiang Xinhong spread her hands and said, "I mentioned it before. Dandan is fine, but Tingting can't bear to let her go. The child is only one and a half years old. She cries when she talks about this. What can I do?"
"Then there's nothing we can do. Since you're willing to take care of the children, if they still don't want to go, then just let them go!"
Apart from anything else, there are several couples living alone in the house rented out by Jiang Xinbai. Some of them have wives and children in their hometowns, and they pretend to be single in Shenzhen to deceive young girls.
Another thing is that the girl herself knows it, but because she wants the guy to be nice to her, she turns a blind eye to it. So Jiang Xinbai won’t care about it. She is just the landlord, not the police, and the police don’t care about these things anyway.
"Yeah, that's what I said. But, Xiaobai, if Shih Hsin and the others really go to Shenzhen, I'll need you to take care of them. It's the first time for them to go to such a far place, and I feel a little uneasy." Jiang Xinhong said a little embarrassedly.
Jiang Xinbai waved her hand and said with a smile, "That's no problem, big sister. I would take care of him even if you didn't tell me. He's my own nephew! It would be even better if he could go with us in a couple of days. The factories over there recruit people every year. It's better to go early. Some factories will be full and won't recruit anymore."
"Hey, now that you've said that, I'm going to go back and talk to Shih-Hsin and the others. Xiaobai, I'll be leaving first. Mom, I'm going back first. When you have time, come to my house and play and see your great-grandson."
"Hey, go and get busy! I haven't seen Junjun and Ruirui for several days. I'll go when I'm free. Those two little guys are missing the rice cakes I made! I'll bring them over when I make them."
Han Shujun and Han Shurui are Chen Cui'e's only great-grandchildren. The two little guys are very cute and they always smile happily when they see Chen Cui'e, their grandmother.
"Oh, Mom, just spoil them! The two little guys have been asking when grandma will come these past few days! As soon as I heard them, I knew they were greedy." Jiang Xinhong was helpless with the two greedy grandsons.
Chen Cui'e waved her hands and smiled, "We are all children, it's normal to be greedy! You were the same when you were little, that's enough, you should go back quickly!"
Jiang Xinbai looked at her elder sister's back as she walked away and said with emotion, "Mom, my elder sister is busy until she's old. Taking care of children is the most tiring thing."
"You, don't even mention your eldest sister, aren't you the same? Jiabao is not a child anymore, and he will get married in a few years. Can't you help take care of the child?" Chen Cui'e joked with a smile.
"Me!" Jiang Xinbai thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I'll pay. I've taken care of the kids enough. At worst, I can pay for a nanny to take care of the kids!"
