Chen Xiaoying drove away her second daughter Li Hongli, turned around, and saw her third daughter-in-law Zhao Xueyan peeking at the kitchen door.
Zhao Xueyan was just looking down on Li Hongli when she was caught by her mother-in-law. She smiled awkwardly, retracted her head, and went back to work in the kitchen.
Chen Xiaoying could not help but sigh. The third daughter-in-law Zhao Xueyan was a person who could be pulled up, but the third son Li Hongqiang was a confused man who could not distinguish good from bad. The third daughter-in-law became better and better, and the third son would become less and less worthy of her in the future.
She sat back in her chair silently, thinking that if one day Zhao Xueyan didn't want to live with the third brother anymore, she would be mentally prepared.
When Li Hongli returned to her husband's house, Xu Cuicui came to greet her immediately: "How is the matter going? Did your sister agree?"
Li Hongli glared at her unhappily: "My mother won't agree."
Xu Cuicui glared and put her hands on her hips: "Your mother doesn't agree? Can't you just keep it a secret from her? When I go to report, it will be a done deal. Even if your mother doesn't agree, it will be useless, right?"
Li Hongli looked at Xu Cuicui as if she was looking at a mentally retarded person: "Such a good job opportunity, my younger sister will never give it to you. Besides, why should she give it to you?"
She knew her twin sister well. She cherished some opportunities very much. In order to earn some money, she was willing to cook for the men on the construction site even in hot weather. How could she miss this librarian job?
Although the salary is not high, the job is stable, the environment is comfortable, the benefits are good, there is a pension in the future, and she can continue to study and improve. She would not give up this opportunity unless her head was squeezed by the door.
"Don't even think about it. It's not going to work anyway."
After she finished speaking, she wanted to leave.
Xu Cuicui was anxious and grabbed her: "Li Hongli, are you crazy? You are my second sister-in-law, we are a family. I have just discussed with mom. If you take this job and give it to me, I will give you half of the salary. Don't you want this money?"
Ma Xiufen, who had tricked Xu Cuicui into making this promise, tried to persuade the hesitant Li Hongli: "Hongli, your sister is right. If your younger sister can give you half of her salary, we'll just ignore what she said."
Ma Xiufen had met Li Hongxia and could tell that this girl was not someone who would do such a stupid thing. She would definitely not agree to such an excessive request.
Li Hongli blinked and her eyeballs rolled around.
Her mother is hard to talk to, but as for her sister, at least from childhood to adulthood, she has always listened to her and coaxed her, and that is easy.
"Okay, I'll ask her then."
She said it nonchalantly.
As for the job, it doesn't necessarily have to be given to Xu Cuicui. As long as her younger sister Li Hongxia agrees to give her half of the salary like Xu Cuicui, she will of course choose her over Xu Cuicui because they are sisters.
Li Hongli’s dream is beautiful.
The next day, she went to look for her younger sister Li Hongxia.
When Li Hongxia heard her second sister's suggestion, she stopped trying on clothes and stared at her.
Her second sister Li Hongli was puzzled by her gaze: "Why are you looking at me like that? What's wrong with what I said?"
Li Hongxia was not as eloquent as Li Hongli, she just lowered her head and said: "Work is not a thing, it can't be given away just because I want to. I have already signed a contract with the employer, I can't just change the person just because I want to."
Li Hongli felt that she was making excuses, but: "I didn't say that you must give it to my sister-in-law. What I meant is that you give me half of your salary and we'll forget about it."
Li Hongxia looked at her and said, "Second sister, what does the fact that I found a job have to do with you? Besides, I am the one who worked so hard, why should I share my salary with you?"
Li Hongli looked puzzled and looked at her younger sister Li Hongxia as if she were a fool: "Because I gave you this job?"
Li Hongxia felt that Li Hongli was the fool who hadn't thought straight: "Second sister, this job was indeed given to you at the beginning, but didn't you fail to seize the opportunity? So this job is now my turn. It was you who lost this opportunity due to various reasons. It has nothing to do with you now."
"You didn't give it to me, because it was never yours in the first place."
Li Hongli was stunned: "What are you talking about? This job was originally given to me, right?"
"But didn't you miss this opportunity? You missed the job." Li Hongxia said.
Li Hongli gradually frowned, and the confusion in her eyes was gradually replaced by clarity. From the beginning to the end, she thought that this job was hers, but after Li Hongxia said this to her, she realized, oh, this job was not hers in the first place?
It was she who lost, so her younger sister Li Hongxia got the advantage?
"You took my job, right?" Li Hongli said angrily. "We are sisters. I didn't ask you to give up your job. My sister-in-law said she would give me half of the salary. If you don't agree, then give me the job back and I will give it to my sister-in-law."
Li Hongxia suddenly felt powerless all over. Her second sister was a very selfish and stubborn person, and it was impossible to explain anything to her.
"Then go talk to the leader of the county office and see what they say to you."
Anyway, she didn't believe anything she said, so she asked her leader to tell her.
Li Hongli's eyes flickered. "Just ask. You are the one who is wrong in this matter."
Li Hongli said she would go find her leader, but she didn't dare to go.
Just now she suddenly came to realize that this job actually had nothing to do with her, and she was holding on to it just to make up for it.
She is pregnant now and stays at home all day. It costs money to decorate the house and buy furniture. She doesn't have a job, and Xiaodong only pays her salary once every few months, so she has no money to spend.
What to do if she has no money? Should she go back and ask her mother Chen Xiaoying for money?
Her mother kicked her out immediately.
She had no other choice, so she came up with this idea. What can she do if she is given half of her salary?
It was originally her job, so just give it to her.
Li Hongli said she would go to her boss, but she didn't dare. After staying at home for a day, Xu Cuicui urged her to go, so she turned around and found Li Hongxia again. She quickly made up a lie: "Little sister, Xu Cuicui is waiting for my reply. She said that if I give her this job opportunity, she will give me 10,000 yuan."
"You are my younger sister, I don't ask for much, just give me 8,000 yuan."
Li Hongxia was working in a bun shop, making buns skillfully. Her second sister came up to her again and she was really at a loss, so she simply lowered her head and said nothing.
Su Wanping was also helping to make dumplings. When she heard Li Hongli's self-righteous tone and selfish words, she couldn't help but say, "Hongli, I found this job through connections. Your mother paid for it, but it has nothing to do with you. What are you thinking? You think this job is yours, but you have to ask Hongxia for money?"
"If that's how you calculate it, then I'll just give you the job."
