Seeing Ergou being scolded by his mother, the people around him laughed. Grandpa Xia looked at them like this, waved his hand and said:
"Forget it, I know what kind of people are in your family."
This person is not a bad person, he just has a loose mouth. Although he may have some problems, he is not bad to his wife and daughter. He is much better than those families that favor boys over girls.
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. You all know the requirements. Remember, anyone between the ages of sixteen and forty is welcome to apply."
Everyone nodded, and seeing that everyone was still surrounding him, he smiled and said, "Everyone, hurry up and go to the fields. We've been delayed for so long, we should go back too."
Although that’s what they said, after hearing such big news, who would still want to go out? They all want to go home and dress up and tidy themselves up.
Those who have relatives in other villages also want to go and tell them the news. Didn’t we say that there are no restrictions for this recruitment? Anyone from the surrounding villages can come and try.
Thinking of this, everyone looked at each other and hurried home, rushing to inform their relatives in other villages. Every family has one or two daughters who have married out of town.
Grandpa Xia and his friends returned home, and when all his brothers arrived, he started talking about this matter. Coincidentally, his daughter also came back.
Grandpa Xia has always wanted to give each family a few places and let them figure it out on their own. Otherwise, it would be a mistake no matter who he chooses since both sides of the hand are in the same boat.
Leave it to them, they can choose whoever they want. You know your brothers, they will definitely choose the best for you. Besides, the younger generations in your family are all pretty good.
There are no ugly ones. Everyone is well educated, polite and hardworking.
Everyone supported his decision, but in the end he said that he also had to screen the people who were selected, and only if they passed his test would they be considered qualified.
The number of people in each family is allocated. Families with more women will have more places for girls, and families with more boys will have more places for boys. In any case, we will try our best to ensure fairness.
Grandpa Xia would say that the most pitiful person here is his granddaughter. She is getting married soon and definitely cannot go out of town. It is really a pity.
If it had been earlier, maybe you wouldn't have gotten engaged yet and could have gone out to see the world, earn more money, and see this beautiful world. Then the partner you find will definitely be better than the one you have now.
But it's too late to say anything now. The engagement has been decided and he can't break off the relationship. If he really does something like this, they won't have to live here anymore.
So I just thought about it in my mind. Besides, I am her grandfather, and to be honest, there is still a layer of distance between us. If I were to interfere in their family affairs, my in-laws would definitely not be happy.
But my daughter is willing to give it a try, which is also good. There are two workers in their family. When the youngest one studies hard, maybe she can go to university and get a stable job.
A family like this is already doing well in the village and can live a carefree life, so there are gains and losses.
The next morning, many people came to their door waiting, and some came from other villages, all wanting to get this job.
The villages are not too far apart. Besides, the girls from your village either marry here or marry there, so the villages have long been inseparable.
Any little disturbance will make all the villages know about it. Even the smallest thing can spread to the surrounding villages, not to mention big things like work.
Those people were afraid of being late and missing out, so they set off before dawn. After all, it was not easy to have a job. If Xia Jin hadn't thought about them, they would have had to farm for the rest of their lives.
Grandpa Xia was shocked when he opened the door and saw so many people, but fortunately he quickly came to his senses and asked everyone to line up. When his brothers came, he took them to choose one by one.
Don’t accept nails that are too long. The selection is very strict anyway. Otherwise, what can we do? We need 100 people, but now there are 200 people. Of course, we have to be stricter.
Those who went too far were told directly that they were no longer wanted. There were also those in similar situations as below, so they had to hesitate for a while. In the end, after all the selections were made, there were still about a hundred people left.
They still had to pick out more than 30 people from these people. They felt that these people were all okay, and the remaining tasks would not be completed in a short time, so they let those people go back first and wait until tomorrow to get the results.
Their method of selecting people this time was also very simple. They chose people based on their character. Everyone in their own village knew what kind of people they were, but it was a little more difficult for people from other villages.
They could only look for the girls who had married out and ask one by one. Finally, they selected thirty people, thirty-five men and thirty-five women. Among them, there were those who were in their thirties and those who had just turned sixteen.
The male applicants are usually young men, who stay at home to farm and take care of the family.
Every village was discussing the Xia family's recruitment, and even while working, they would not give up the opportunity to speak. Those who were rejected in the first round were too embarrassed to go out for a while.
Aunt Xia returned home and discussed the matter with her husband. Liu's parents were very happy to hear that their daughter-in-law was going to work in a big city.
They are all so happy. Others want such a good opportunity but can't get it. Aren't those city people fighting for a job?
Now that my daughter-in-law has such a good opportunity, why not support her? When she earns money in the future, won’t she give it to her grandson?
He thought that his daughter-in-law had moved to the city and could take care of his eldest grandson. Besides, the two of them were still able to work and take care of him.
So everyone agreed. Grandpa Liu looked at his eldest granddaughter sitting on the side, sighed, and felt a little sorry.
It’s their fault for getting her engaged so early. Otherwise, if she went to work in the city, she could find someone better than the current one and someone she likes more.
The next morning, Grandpa Xia posted the admission information on his front door for everyone to see, then he closed the door and went into the house.
He got two pieces of bright red paper and asked the village chief's father, who was good at handwriting, to write on them. They were neat and clean. The paper was good and thick. It cost him several cents. He just wanted to make it look more formal and decent so as not to embarrass himself.
The personal information of the admitted students is written in detail above. At this time, there are many people with the same name, such as Xiaoya.
So he wrote down the names and ages of the villagers to make it easier for everyone to find their own names, otherwise what would others do if they couldn't find it.
