Yun Ningyan also heard the child crying and Zhang Hongmei crying.
But if she doesn't stand up for herself, there's nothing else she can do.
You have to make up your own mind about these things.
Huo Junshan couldn't help but comfort her, saying, "She'll figure it out someday."
Yun Ningyan nodded: "I hope so! My mother and I are going back now. You go and get back to work. Don't work so hard. We don't live off work points."
Huo Junshan patted her shoulder and laughed, "I know, you and your mother should go back! Don't come out alone."
Yun Ningyan and Li Xiangyun then went back.
When Niu Cuicui saw the two people return, she moved her lips but didn't ask them anything.
She really wanted to ask Huo Jianguo how he was doing, whether he was tired.
But the thought that the two of them hadn't consummated their marriage yet prevented her from asking the question.
Yun Ningyan could guess a thing or two from her expression.
She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, my eldest brother and second brother both drank mung bean soup. Mother cooked a lot."
There was nothing wrong with what she said, but she did it with a smile on her face.
This made Niu Cuicui blush.
"Third sister-in-law!"
She stomped her foot in anger and went inside.
"Hahaha......"
Yun Ningyan and Li Xiangyun both laughed.
She went home and brought back a large plate of pork ribs.
"Mom, today is the first day of work. Let's make pork ribs for lunch to help them all recover properly."
Li Xiangyun took the ribs and chopped them into small pieces.
Niu Cuicui also smiled and said, "Mother, I'll help you start the fire."
Li Xiangyun waved her hand: "No need, you help Ningning hold one child, the two of them can't handle it."
Niu Cuicui thought so too; she hadn't done much kitchen work either.
They usually get up to help with the fire and do the most cooking.
She can't manage to take care of her younger brother's two children all by herself.
"Alright then! I'll go help my third sister-in-law take care of the kids."
In addition to stewing a pot of pork ribs, Li Xiangyun also made flatbreads and steamed rice.
The ribs also contained a lot of side dishes.
Dried green beans, tofu, potatoes, cabbage, and the like.
A whole pot full.
At noon, several workers came back for lunch, and Huo Jianshe ate until his belly was round.
He clutched his stomach and said, "Mom, I ate too much. What am I going to do if I get sleepy now?"
Li Xiangyun laughed and said, "Don't you want to go to work?"
She was about to grab a broom when she said that.
Huo Jianshe waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, I'm going to work, I'm going to work."
The wheat harvest is hard work every year. After eating at home, the group went back to work in the fields without taking a break.
Huo Junshan went inside to check on the two children, held them for a while, and then left.
They were a happy family.
The atmosphere in Huo Changlan's house was deathly still!
Today was Yao Tingting's first day at work, and she was exhausted.
She didn't want to work in the fields at all.
After eating, he didn't even wash the dishes, but just lay on the bed looking at Huo Changlan with a lifeless expression.
"Mom, I really don't want to go to work."
"I'm so tired."
Huo Changlan didn't want to go either, but if they didn't go to work, they wouldn't have anything to eat.
"Then what should we do? I shouldn't go to work either? If we don't work, what will we eat?"
When are you and Zhang Youcai getting married?
"Once you get married, you'll be just like Yun Ningyan, staying home every day without having to do any work."
Yao Tingting turned over.
“Mom, I heard from Zhang Youcai and the others that they earn quite a lot of money each month. He even gave me five yuan a few days ago.”
As she spoke, she couldn't help but start daydreaming.
"Mom, wouldn't it be great if I had a job too?"
What was said unintentionally was taken to heart by the listener.
These words struck a chord with Huo Changlan.
Huo Changlan blurted out, "Then let Zhang Youcai give you his job."
"Let him go work in the fields, and you work in the factory, isn't that enough?"
Yao Tingting suddenly sat up in bed.
"Mother, do you think this is feasible? Zhang Youcai listens to everything I say."
Huo Changlan disagreed: "What's wrong with that? You two are getting married. Giving it to you would be the same as giving it to him, wouldn't it?"
She shook her head: "There's no difference?"
Yao Tingting chuckled.
"Well, I'll go to the field to find Zhang Youcai later."
She didn't want to rest anymore and disappeared in a flash.
Huo Changlan tried to call out to him from behind, but to no avail.
"This kid hasn't even thought about what to say yet, and he just rushes in headfirst. No wonder Zhang Youcai won't agree."
Huo Changlan grabbed the clothes and chased after them.
Yao Tingting went into the field but didn't see Zhang Youcai.
She had no choice but to wait at his plot of land for a while.
When Zhang Youcai came to work, he saw her waiting for him from afar.
"Tingting, what brings you here? Is something wrong?"
Yao Tingting pouted and started complaining.
"Zhang Youcai, I'm so tired, I don't want to go to work anymore."
Zhang Youcai scratched his head: "Tingting, you keep working. I'll come help you after I finish this piece of land."
Yao Tingting's face turned red with anger. How could this person be so unromantic?
Would it kill you to say something nice?
She was about to get angry, but then she remembered that he had come to ask her for work.
I suppressed the urge to lose my temper.
"Zhang Youcai, how's your work at the cannery going?"
Zhang Youcai nodded, wondering why she was asking this.
Yao Tingting coaxed her gently, her smile radiant, and she looked incredibly cheerful.
Zhang Youcai was stunned for a moment.
Yao Tingting saw that his eyes were wide open.
He then spoke in a high-pitched voice, "Youcai, I can't stand working in the fields. How about you let me do the work at the cannery?"
Zhang Youcai didn't think too much about it; he felt that they were both going to get married.
It doesn't really matter who does the work in the cannery.
He nodded: "Okay, once we start work, I'll talk to the factory manager and you can start working then."
Yao Tingting was so excited!
Ignoring the people around her, she grabbed Zhang Youcai's arm.
"Thank you! I'll definitely work hard then!"
She got what she wanted and skipped away.
Huo Changlan saw her return with a smile.
He pulled Yao Tingting to his side, and the two sat down on the ground.
"Tingting, how did it go? Did Zhang Youcai agree?"
Yao Tingting nodded heavily: "Mom, he agreed. I told you he would agree."
Huo Changlan patted her hand: "Good! Good! You'll have a job now too."
Yao Tingting was very pleased with herself, knowing that her status would rise accordingly in the future.
Once she establishes herself at the cannery, what chance will Zhang Youcai have?
I want to climb higher.
How can we confine ourselves to this small group?
Although she didn't say these words, Huo Junshan overheard them.
She was just thinking too loudly and too beautifully about what was on her mind.
Huo Junshan frowned upon hearing this.
But he continued working, pretending not to hear.
Even if the Zhang family agrees, the factory won't.
When selecting people, we considered not only the person themselves, but also their character.
Yao Tingting's dream will never come true.
