This also includes recruiting teachers for primary and junior high schools common to several new factories.
When the four of them found out there was a teaching job, their eyes lit up. They all wanted this job, but they also knew that the competition was fierce.
After filling out the application form for the jobs they thought they could pass, the four of them passed two more rounds of exams. They were only able to leave and go home after the magistrate came to see the results two days later.
The four of them left home at eight o'clock to register at the weaving factory. When they returned home, it was already half past twelve, exactly four and a half hours.
"You're back. Hurry up and wash your hands and get ready for lunch." Grandpa Gu, who was standing at the door with the children, saw the four people hurried back and quickly turned around and invited them to come into the house to eat.
Upon hearing this, the four of them felt embarrassed instantly. They never expected that on their first day, they would need Grandpa Gu to take care of the children and cook lunch at the same time.
"Sorry, Grandpa. We saw several newly built factories recruiting workers over there, so we signed up for them one by one. Sorry, I forgot to come back to cook."
"It's okay. I guessed this would be the result. You don't have to be embarrassed. Your second aunt and second uncle will prepare lunch. Go wash your hands and eat. It's almost one o'clock."
"Ah~ Second uncle and second aunt are here, but where are they?" Upon hearing this, He Wanqing felt even more embarrassed.
"They have finished their meal and are going back to work. Hurry up and wash your hands. We are all family, so there is no need to be embarrassed." After saying that, he went into the kitchen and brought out the food left for the four people.
After knowing that Uncle Gu and his wife had finished their meal and went to work, He Wanqing quickly walked to the washstand and fetched water to wash her hands.
After washing, before I had time to wipe with a towel, I saw Grandpa Gu coming out of the kitchen carrying dishes.
Seeing this, she shook her hands vigorously to dry them, then walked to his side in two steps, took the dish from his hand and said:
"Grandpa, just let us do it."
Seeing this, Shen Ping and the other two, who had just washed their hands, immediately rushed into the kitchen and brought out the remaining food.
"Don't pretend to be my meal, I just ate it."
Seeing the food in his hands being taken away, and seeing Chen Ping bringing out the food, Grandpa Gu quickly spoke, fearing that he would be a step late and Chen Ping would pack out his food.
Upon hearing this, He Wanlin, who was holding the bowl and chopsticks behind her, quickly put another set back.
The four of them were so hungry that they were sticking to each other. While eating, they talked to Grandpa Gu about what happened in the morning.
Before he finished lunch, the person who received the news that Grandpa Gu had returned came to inform him to go to the retirement home for a meeting in the afternoon.
Looking at the people who came to pick him up, Grandpa Gu didn't want to go, but since he was back, he had to show up.
He had no choice but to hand the cart to He Wanqing, gave her a few more instructions, then followed the person with his hands behind his back and a cold face.
Standing at the door and seeing Grandpa Gu off, He Wanqing returned to the main room to continue eating.
"Sister, what are we doing this afternoon?" He Wanyi asked her while eating.
"Sister, don't worry about anything else, just tell me where the house Su Benjun bought is. My mother and I have to go and clean it up in the afternoon so that we can stay there at night."
After finishing her work and filling her stomach, Chen Ping finally asked the question she wanted to ask in the morning.
After finishing the tomato and egg soup, He Wanqing put down her chopsticks and looked at Chen Ping: "Your house is next to my house. Let's clean up together in the afternoon and we will definitely be able to live there at night."
This was not only an answer to Chen Ping, but also a message to He Wanyi and He Wanlin who were waiting for the answer with wide eyes.
When the three heard this, they quickly finished their meals without letting her do anything. One of them went outside to wash the dishes, one wiped the table, and the other pushed a cart and stood at the door waiting for her.
He Wanqing was shocked by the actions of the three people. She smiled and shook her head, got up and went back to the room where she put her luggage in the morning, walked around, and took out the key with Su Benjun's name on it from the space:
"Here, your house key. Turn left when you go out." Handing the key to the eager-eyed Chen Ping, she took the cart from her cousin and walked out.
Seeing her man's name written on the key, Chen Ping smiled.
Now, she finally didn't have to worry about the accommodation problem. She went into the house, picked up her luggage and quickly ran home.
Seeing this, He Wanyi, who had just finished washing the dishes, picked up her remaining luggage and left.
Ten minutes later, the four of them looked at the clean courtyard, put their luggage and made the beds, then left Chen Ping's house and returned to He Wanqing's house.
"Sister, when Uncle Gu and the others come, you must tell me. I want to thank them very much."
Thinking about how her house was clean and tidy and the vegetables planted in the yard, Chen Ping felt very grateful.
She knew that none of this would have happened if it weren't for her cousin and Grandpa Gu. If Grandpa Gu hadn't been around, she would have wanted to make him a pot of stew that he liked.
"Okay, stop thanking me. You look after the child while Wanyi, Wanlin and I make the bed. We'll go out for a walk and get familiar with the area as soon as possible."
After handing the child to her, she entered the room Grandpa Gu mentioned before he left and began to make the bed.
Seeing this, He Wanyi and her sister, who were standing there, went into their own room and started making their beds.
Because the courtyard was not big and had only six rooms, the two sisters slept in the room on the innermost right side of the living room, two people in one room. The room next to them was reserved for Grandma He and her husband.
The other room was reserved for He's mother, the room next to He's mother was for Grandpa Gu, and the room next to Grandpa Gu was reserved for Gu's mother and his wife.
The room next to He Wanqing is reserved for the three children. It will be where they sleep when they have their own rooms in the future.
But after Grandma He and the others left, those rooms also belonged to the children.
As for Grandma Shen and her husband, they stayed at Shen Ping's house. After all, they were neighbors, just separated by a wall, so it was very convenient.
After making the bed, the four of them took the child to look around the place where they would live.
