Huo Changlan was sprayed with water all over her face, and she was so angry that she opened her mouth to curse.
But when she saw it was her second brother, she opened her mouth but held back.
Huo Changgen waved his hands repeatedly: "No, I can't make decisions about things in the factory."
After he finished speaking, he quickly grabbed his sickle and went to another field, not wanting to stay with Huo Changlan.
If his wife finds out, she'll pull his ear again.
Huo Changlan stomped his feet in anger.
She chased after him.
Clutching Huo Changgen's sleeve, she said, "Second Brother, I really have something important to say, don't go!"
Huo Changgen said helplessly, "Hurry up and tell me, I have to go to work."
Huo Changlan had no choice but to go along with him and begin to analyze the pros and cons.
"Second brother, look, we can't get in touch with Qingqing now, and she probably won't be coming back in this lifetime."
"Now I only have one daughter left, Tingting."
"Isn't it because she's already engaged to the Zhang family's son? Tingting won't earn many work points anyway."
"I was thinking, could you see if you could help arrange a job for her at the factory?"
"I don't care how much money I make, as long as it's easy."
Huo Changgen shook his head: "Changlan, I really can't make decisions about the work in this factory."
"You should just let her do her work obediently!"
Huo Changlan's eyes turned red with anger; she had already sounded so aggrieved!
Why doesn't my second brother think about his orphans and widows at all?
Huo Changgen took a step to leave.
But Huo Changlan held onto him tightly and wouldn't let go.
Huo Changgen had no choice but to pry her fingers apart.
He said earnestly, "Changlan, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't make decisions about things at the factory!"
Huo Changlan's tears fell in a steady stream.
"Second brother, are you really not going to help me? I don't even know where Qingqing is. I'm counting on Tingting."
Huo Changgen sighed and patiently explained, "Changlan, does having a job mean you can live a good life?"
These good days can't be lived off just one job.
As long as a person is hardworking and capable, they can still eat their fill even without a job.
Huo Changgen looked at his family's third and eldest sons.
He was getting a little anxious and didn't want to talk to Huo Changlan anymore.
"Besides, doesn't that Zhang boy already have a job? He earns more than twenty yuan a month."
"Just wait patiently for her to marry into the family, and then the two of you can work hard together, right?"
Huo Changlan felt frustrated because she couldn't get through to him.
Huo Changgen shook off her hand and strode away.
The captain had just seen the two of them tugging at each other.
As soon as Huo Changgen left, he went over immediately: "Changgen, what kind of trouble has Changlan gotten into this time?"
Huo Changgen shook his head and sighed: "Brother, you know what's wrong with Changlan? He wants me to arrange a job for Tingting."
The captain lit his pipe and took two puffs.
"Don't pay attention to her, she's acting strangely every day."
"Who do you think stirred things up?"
"I heard yesterday that Zhang Youcai said he was going to give his job to Tingting?"
"How did it all turn into you having to arrange a job for her today!"
Huo Changgen said helplessly, "She only thinks about good things all day long. Not to mention anything else, she had such a bad falling out with the third son's family."
"Even if he got a job, given how much the third brother dotes on his wife, he wouldn't give it to her."
The captain, however, felt that refusing to give it to them was the right thing to do.
If Yao Tingting were to work in the factory, who knows what trouble she might cause?
They're just making trouble for themselves.
After the two talked for a while, Huo Changgen continued working.
Huo Changlan did not achieve her goal, and she stood on her own plot of land.
He cursed Huo Changgen in his heart.
She will still go to the Huo family to discuss this matter.
Why is it that with such a big factory, everyone else in the village has a job?
As members of the Huo family, they didn't have that.
This is simply not fair.
She finished her work in the fields absentmindedly and didn't even go home after work.
They went straight to the Huo family's house.
Huo Changgen had just arrived home when he saw her coming and immediately turned to run away.
Huo Changlan reacted quickly and grabbed him.
"Second brother, what's your opinion on that thing I told you this morning?"
Li Xiangyun and the others were completely baffled.
Li Xiangyun's subconscious reaction was that the old man was acting crazy again.
They've only had a few good days, and now they're already looking for trouble again.
She picked up a broom and was about to hit someone.
"Huo Changgen, what did you promise her this time?"
"I don't care what you promised her, it's not okay with me."
Huo Changgen quickly waved his hand: "I didn't agree to anything?"
Huo Changlan chuckled, "Second brother, don't keep it from me anymore. Didn't you say you were going to get Tingting a job at the cannery?"
"Tell me when Tingting should start work. I'll tell her when I get back."
Huo Changgen didn't expect her to do something like this!
He was completely baffled.
Li Xiangyun glared at Huo Changgen: "You still say you didn't, Huo Changgen, what exactly happened!"
Just as Li Xiangyun's broom was about to fall.
Huo Changgen quickly went to pull Huo Changlan away.
"Changlan, you can't just say that. I didn't agree to it, and I can't make that decision."
Li Xiangyun gleaned some information from their conversation.
She sneered, "Huo Changlan, you're ugly, but you dream big."
"Get out of here! Forget about the factory job, it's impossible."
Huo Junshan and his brothers returned from work and heard the commotion in the courtyard from afar.
The group quickened their pace and headed home.
Then I saw his mother chasing after Huo Changlan and hitting him.
