Chapter 55: Stop
Sun Erni becomes worried when talking about this. Her little daughter's grades are fluctuating. She has also asked the school teachers about it. It's very unlikely that she will be able to get into a technical secondary school.
"Your little sister is in a difficult situation. Although she has applied to a medical school, I don't think she has a chance."
Yang Xiufen raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Are you planning to continue to go to high school?"
"That's not the case. Xiumin doesn't want to go. She can't concentrate on her studies. I've discussed with your father that if she fails to pass the technical secondary school entrance exam, we'll let her stay at home and find a suitable job for her. Hey, isn't Zhou Yu the factory manager? Does he have any connections?"
For the sake of her younger daughter, Sun Erni had no choice but to shamelessly ask her older daughter.
Yang Xiufen frowned, "Xiumin is only fourteen this year, right? Too young, she has to be at least sixteen, otherwise the factory won't accept her."
When Sun Erni heard this, she was extremely disappointed and also anxious.
"Mom, I think if Xiumin can't get into technical secondary school, let her continue to go to high school, and when she is old enough, she can apply for a factory job. There will always be a chance."
"That's all we can do."
In the evening, people who got off work came back one after another. Yang Jinsheng ran upstairs early with a basket of vegetables. Before he even entered the house, he heard the voice, "Mom, are my elder sister and the others here?"
"You are worthy of being the third brother I raised. I know you are thinking about me." Yang Xiufen stood up from the table and said with a smile, "Mom said you bought some meat today. Let me see what you bought."
"Hey, big sister, here's a nice piece of pork belly. Mom, I'll make braised pork for you tonight. Big sister loves it. There's also a piece of pork liver. Let's make some soup. Mom, you love it. Ding ding, there's also a pig's stomach. Big sister, I know you like it. You can take it home after dinner. I'll roughly prepare it for you, but you'll have to wash it again when you get home."
Yang Jinsheng pulled out things from the basket one by one as if he were finding treasures. In the end, there was a cleanly shaved bone left at the bottom. He handed it to his mother and said with a smile, "Mom, make soup with the bone tonight, and add some noodles for Xiaobai to eat before bed. She's been getting hungry lately."
"I got it. Go talk to your elder sister." Sun Erni took the basket and went straight into the kitchen. Her cooking skills would be demonstrated tonight.
"Sister, where is my brother-in-law? He hasn't come yet." Yang Jinsheng looked around but didn't see his brother-in-law Zhou Yu.
"It's almost there, I'll be there soon. Jinsheng, it's great, you're going to be a father, you're ahead of your elder sister."
Yang Xiufen smiled and patted her younger brother's shoulder. Alas, the younger brother who cried and insisted on tasting the taste of the giant green worm is going to be a father now. Time flies so fast!
"That's right, big sister. My uncle is waiting anxiously. When will you give birth to a nephew for me to cherish?"
When Yang Xiufen heard this, she raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Wait, the red envelope is ready."
"Have you prepared the red envelope? Big sister, I heard your voice from far away. You said you haven't been back for a few years and your parents miss you. Let me see you. Hmm, you've lost weight. You see, it's better to be at home..."
As soon as Li Huifen entered the room, she started talking a lot and was quite enthusiastic.
"Sister-in-law, what are you looking at? It's obvious that my sister is fatter than when she was at home, okay?" Yang Jinsheng glanced at Yang Xiufen, then at Li Huifen, and felt that there must be something wrong with his sister-in-law's eyes.
"Hey, how can you talk like that? Why did I get fat? I'm slim!" Yang Xiufen pays great attention to her figure and she can't stand the word fat.
"That's right, third brother, you don't understand women." Li Huifen looked at Yang Jinsheng with an expression that said, "You are really tactless."
"Okay, okay, sister-in-law, you and sister have topics to talk about, you guys go and chat, I'll go find Xiaobai." Yang Jinsheng shrugged and slipped into the room.
In the room, Jiang Xinbai was half lying on the bed resting. When she saw her husband coming in, she quickly said, "Help me up. I'll feel much better after a rest."
"Xiaobai, what's wrong? Is the child bothering you again?" Yang Jinsheng looked at his wife worriedly, then gently touched her round belly.
Jiang Xinbai shook her head, "No, I just feel tired recently. I just chatted with my elder sister for a while and felt a little exhausted, so I went back to my room and lay down. I think my elder sister won't mind?" She just asked. Even if she was really angry, there was nothing she could do.
"How could that be? You are the most important now."
Jiang Xinbai suddenly remembered something and whispered, "Jinsheng, don't do that black market business. We had no choice before because we were short of money, but now we have money, so we should not get involved. It seems that the situation has been quite strict recently."
Jiang Xinbai tasted the sweetness since the first time he brought brown sugar to Su Qiuyan. He helped to carry things and then took a little money from it. He could save more than ten yuan a month. This was assuming that she didn't go often. If she went more often, it would definitely be more than that.
Later, when she got pregnant, Jiang Xinbai stopped doing this job for fear of something going wrong, and Yang Jinsheng took over. The couple worked quietly and made a lot of money in the past few months, but they were always worried. Later, they thought that they had the money anyway, so they decided to quit.
Yang Jinsheng nodded after hearing this, "We both thought the same thing. I was just about to stop doing this."
"That's good. You see, we have over 1,400 yuan from selling yellow croaker. Don't touch this. From now on, your salary will be used for living. Things are tense now, so be careful."
Jiang Xinbai thought that it was already May of 1966, and sensitive people had noticed something was wrong. Didn't they see that people with overseas connections were questioned from time to time? Thinking of this, she thought of the God of Wealth Li Fengyue again, hoping that she would arrive safely at the place she wanted and live a smooth life!
"Yeah, I think so too. Hey, big brother is still the best. After we get a room, we can live more comfortably in the future."
Yang Jinsheng really felt that his elder brother was lucky, as someone was willing to exchange housing quotas with him. Although it was a small bungalow, at least he had his own space, which was great.
"Yeah, my third brother said he wanted to buy a house last time, but I don't know if he has bought it yet."
In addition to this, Jiang Xinbai was still thinking about her future third sister-in-law, but she didn't know who she was. You said that she only saw the back of her third sister-in-law in this dream, but even if she saw her face, she probably wouldn't recognize her.
"Hey, Third Brother is capable. It's only a matter of time. In the future, I will have to rely on him more. Xiaobai, you have to say good things about me in front of Third Brother. Whether I can live a good life in the future depends on you."
Yang Jinsheng smiled and put his hands on his cheeks towards his wife, and blinked.
Jiang Xinbai held back her laughter and stretched out her hand to pinch his face, "Stop being naughty, but you are right about one thing, my third brother is a capable man, otherwise how could he do OEM for you everywhere?"
"Yes, yes, third brother is capable." Yang Jinsheng nodded repeatedly. Third uncle is indeed a capable person, and ordinary people can't compare to him.
