Because of Aunt Tian's words, the atmosphere in the living room became awkward.
Qian Qiuxia's face darkened, thinking that today's welcome party couldn't be interrupted, otherwise it would be her fault if it got out.
Just then, Aunt Zhao spoke up: "Director Qian, when can our work be arranged?"
The Military Family Committee is responsible for arranging jobs for everyone, so all new military family members have to show up in front of Qian Qiuxia so that Qian Qiuxia can pay attention to their jobs.
No matter what kind of job it is, as long as you can get a salary, everyone will of course scramble to do it.
Qian Qiuxia's mind moved and a smile appeared on her face.
"You and Liang Su are the only ones left. I do have a suitable job, but I don't know if you would mind."
Aunt Zhao quickly said, "I don't mind, as long as I have a salary."
"Of course there are salaries. Our base never mistreats any of our military families. Well, the old man who cleans the public toilets at the base went back to his hometown to recuperate a few days ago, and I just wanted to hire two more people."
There are two in the army at the base and two in the military family compound.
Before, an old man was sweeping the floor and was paid ten yuan a month.
"I thought women would be afraid of dirt and tiredness, so I'll hire two people to do it. How about seven dollars a month?"
Aunt Zhao quickly agreed: "Okay, okay, I'll go sweep it!"
Qian Qiuxia looked at Liang Su and said softly, "What about Comrade Liang Su?"
Aunt Tian asked, "She graduated from high school, and you want her to clean public toilets? Doesn't our Military Families Committee assign jobs based on education and ability?"
Qian Qiuxia was stunned. She really didn't know that Liang Su graduated from high school.
Even Xu Yan didn't finish high school and only got a junior high school diploma.
"I see. I haven't found anyone suitable yet. I thought it would be a good opportunity for young comrades to exercise, so cleaning the toilets wouldn't be a big deal. Could it be that Comrade Liang Su is afraid of hard work and fatigue? Or does he dislike this job?"
Liang Su smiled and said, "It's normal to be afraid of hardship and fatigue, but I will definitely stick to what I have to do. Thank you, auntie, but I think Xu Yan may need this job more. She's a young comrade, so it's okay to let her exercise. As for me, I may have to refuse your kindness. I have things to do myself, and I don't need the committee to assign me any work for the time being."
Qian Qiuxia felt annoyed when she heard her talk about Xu Yan.
She said earnestly, "Since you don't want to, forget it. Young people nowadays are really arrogant."
Liang Su didn't respond to her, and the topic ended there.
Aunt Zhao thought, if she were Liang Su, she would not want to sweep the toilet either.
She is willing to do it because she is uneducated and old, and she can't do other things. It's good enough for her to be able to sweep the toilet.
It would be so embarrassing if a little girl were to sweep the toilet and happened to see a gay man using the toilet.
If she were to say, Qian Qiuxia was deliberately targeting her.
After finishing the meal awkwardly, Aunt Tian and Liang Su were the first to leave.
After they left, Liu Qian and Aunt Zhao also left.
I really can't get along with these flatterers.
"Xiao Su, Qian Qiuxia is just like that, narrow-minded and vindictive. Don't take it to heart. With Aji here and you've graduated from high school, you won't have trouble finding a good job." Aunt Tian advised.
Liang Su smiled lightly and shook his head, "I didn't take it to heart. I do have my own things to do."
Aunt Tian knew that she wanted to set up a stall to sell clothes.
But she thinks buying clothes is unreliable.
"Xiao Su, our military dependents' home is going to build a nursery. You can go for an interview then. With your appearance, you'll definitely get in."
Liang Su smiled bitterly and said that she might not be able to do it. She didn't think she could take care of a child.
But thinking of her children, she did have things she wanted to do before.
She originally wanted to study at a normal university and then work on picture books, drawing various picture books that would satisfy children's innocence.
She has learned to paint, and her skills are not superb, but she can draw some simple patterns without any problem.
It's a pity that because she was replaced by Zhan Moli at the university and because of Liang Qin's incident, she hasn't picked up her paintbrush for a long time.
Painting is a hobby, I can't make money from it.
The most important thing for her now is to make money.
When I got home, Shen Congji was not there.
Pan Yang brought in a wardrobe and a dressing table.
The wardrobe is quite big, so it is no problem to fit clothes for two people.
Her favorite is the dressing table, which also comes with a mirror. It is great for dressing or as a desk.
"Thank you, Comrade Pan. Everything is here. This is the final payment."
Pan Yang didn't count and just put it in his pocket.
"You're welcome, sister-in-law. You're busy, so I'll go back first. Come find me next time you buy furniture."
Liang Su smiled as he walked him out, and suddenly saw a middle-aged man stop at the door and look inside.
“Is this Deputy Captain Shen’s home?”
Liang Su nodded, "Yes."
"My name is Lao Zhou. Deputy Commander Shen asked me to dig a well. I came to your place to measure the land."
Liang Su quickly let someone in.
Old Zhou was very obedient and didn't even dare to look at her. He concentrated on measuring the yard and dug from time to time.
"Is this position okay?"
The area in the middle of the right side of the yard he chose was occupied by a vegetable field.
Liang Su thought that being able to dig a well was good enough, and he didn't care about the location.
"Sure, sure. As long as it's in the yard."
Lao Zhou circled the spot, shouldered his tools, and said, "Okay, I'll talk to Deputy Head Shen and come back to dig another day."
After saying that, he left without even drinking a sip of water.
Liang Su felt bored and saw the grass seeds bought by Shen Congji at the door, so he turned over the soil on the other side of the yard, scattered the seeds, and watered it.
Just by doing all this, she was already sweating profusely and her clothes were soaked with sweat.
The temperature here is higher than in Cheng County.
She just got up and wanted to boil water for a bath.
After taking only two steps, I saw Liang Qin coming over with two children.
Rao Wenhao and his sister followed her like little tails.
She didn't know what she said in Rao Wenhao's ear, but the child suddenly rushed into the yard and went straight to the kitchen.
There was a cupboard inside, but it was locked and he couldn't get anything.
Liang Su walked to the kitchen door and watched Rao Wenhao rummaging through things roughly.
"Didn't your father teach you that this is wrong? This is my house, you can't just come in casually. If this is what your stepmother taught you, then I'm telling you now, it's wrong. She'll teach you bad things if she continues like this. Even if not for yourself, you have to think about your sister. Do you want to be an uneducated child forever?"
Rao Wenhao froze and looked back at her mechanically with a complicated look in his eyes.
If someone had taught him in his previous life and told him that this was wrong, would he have turned over a new leaf?
Liang Su looked at him and was stunned.
This is not the look a child could have.
Rao Wenhao raised his childish face and said, "But they want me to be like this."
Liang Su looked shocked. "What did you say?"
"Auntie, this is what my father wants me to do." Rao Wenhao repeated.
In his previous life, he also thought that it was Liang Qin who had spoiled him and his sister, but he didn't know that Liang Qin would never dare to do so without Rao Yu's instructions.
