After work, Meng Qidi didn't expect to meet the team leader, "Uncle."
"Are you used to going to work, Xiaoqi?" the captain asked with a smile.
Meng Qidi nodded gently, "It's OK, not too hard."
"There are two teacher vacancies in the school over there. Are you going? If you do, I'll recommend you. Even if you marry into the Ling family in the future, you can continue."
"Thank you, uncle. You don't need to give me the spot. Leave it to someone who needs it. You know the situation of the Ling family. I don't think I can go there even if I marry there."
Thinking of the Ling family's situation, the captain sighed and waved his hand, "Go back, I'll give it to the others."
Meng Qidi thanked him before going back.
She didn't want to use the Ling family as a shield, but there was nothing she could do. This was the truth. She really couldn't work.
As soon as the captain returned home, he saw Meng Yuzhen waiting in the house.
Meng Yuzhen saw the captain coming back and quickly stood up, "Uncle!"
The captain frowned slightly and turned to look at his wife who was growing seedlings in the yard. What was going on?
The captain's wife shook her head and the man came in without saying a word.
The captain put his hands behind his back and sat down on the stone bench. "What's the matter?"
"Uncle, I heard that there are vacancies for teachers in our brigade school. I want you to recommend two vacancies for me."
"How did you know this news?" The captain frowned. The news just came out in the afternoon and he hadn't spread it out yet.
Meng Yuzhen lowered her head slightly, "My friend told me, so I wanted to ask my uncle for two places."
"Two? I just asked Xiaoqi, and she said no."
The captain almost subconsciously thought that she must be asking for one for Xiaoqi.
Meng Yuzhen looked a little embarrassed, "It's not Xiaoqi, it's the educated youth Ge Mei and me."
So when she came to look for the captain but didn't see him, she was called away by Meng Qidi?
Thinking of this, Meng Yuzhen hated Meng Qidi so much that her teeth were itching. She was just going against her!
There was a hint of displeasure in the captain's eyes. He took the initiative to come and ask for a quota, which was different from the one he gave.
However, the team always has to give away a spot. He knows Ge Mei, who is a pretty good person. If Xiao Qi doesn't want her, then he can recommend Yu Zhen.
Of course, there are some things he needs to make clear in advance.
"Yuzhen, you should know that there are only two vacancies, and our Mengjiaxiang team is not the only one in the team. I can recommend you, but whether you can be selected is not up to me."
Meng Yuzhen's face was filled with ecstasy, "Thank you, uncle."
"etc."
The captain looked at her suspiciously, "Yuzhen, aren't you going to get married in the city in early May? Will that family let you come to the countryside to teach?"
Meng Yuzhen was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to realize what was going on. If she married and lived in the city, would she ever return to the village?
That's impossible.
The captain sighed, "Yuzhen, as for the quota, I'll be frank. Each team can only recommend one person. It's up to you to decide who to give it to."
Meng Yuzhen bit her lip lightly and said, "Give it to Sister Ge Mei, not Xiao Qi. She's also going to get married and probably won't have time to go to school."
The captain looked at her strangely and didn't respond.
After seeing Meng Yuzhen off, the captain sat down, pressing his temple.
"Brother Feng, why do I feel like there's something wrong with what she said?"
Captain Meng Feng waved his hand impatiently, "Don't worry about the Meng family, they are very troublesome."
I don't know how many times I went to her house in the past half month, and I just kept hanging around the fourth child's family!
"Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi, come here quickly." Meng Daqiang was standing by the pond. He saw Meng Qidi coming back from afar and greeted her hurriedly.
This pond is the secret between him and Xiaoqi, and no one can tell it before they separate.
Meng Qidi walked over reluctantly. She had discovered that this father, who only cared about the benefits, had been asking for her opinions more and more recently.
I really don't know where he got the confidence to think that he would make him rich...
"Come and see, have they sprouted?" Meng Daqiang asked in a low voice.
Meng Qidi had no choice but to go down the steps to the pond. The abandoned pond on the Meng family's side was also an old pond, paved with those old blue bricks.
I squatted down and gently picked up a lotus root tip. Sure enough, there were some whiskers growing underneath.
"Is he alive?"
When Meng Daqiang saw his daughter stand up, he hurriedly asked, if this can be planted, it will be a lot of money in the future.
The last time he was selling lotus roots in town, he actually used a little trick. Knowing that the lotus roots were good, he specially cut them and boiled them, then added some seasonings to make a cold dish for the customers to try.
Otherwise, he couldn't sell them all, and the price would still be so high.
Meng Qidi came up and nodded gently, "It's alive, but when can we let the water in?"
As for the Ling family, she will go to check on them tomorrow. She doesn’t know if the water has been drained. She didn’t pay attention to that place, so she must not make things worse.
"There's no rush to release the water. Let it grow like this for now. When it rains, the water level will rise. We have a lot of rain here, so there's no rush."
Meng Qidi wrote down what Meng Daqiang said and just let it go.
The father and daughter walked towards home one after the other. Unfortunately, they met Meng Yuzhen at the door again.
It seemed that she was frightened by the beating from Meng Qidi. Whenever she saw Meng Qidi, she felt pain all over her body.
Meng Daqiang glared at her and went in unhappily.
Meng Qidi curled the corners of her mouth and walked into the yard, not afraid that she would complain to Zhao Hong.
Thanks to the effect of Yuquan Water, she now knows how to use clever strength when hitting people. In addition, she was beaten like this by those people in her previous life, and after being beaten so many times, she has also learned how to beat people to death without leaving any traces.
Looking at Meng Qidi's back as she walked in, Meng Yuzhen felt so angry that her teeth were itching, but she was unable to do anything about her.
It was a rare occasion that the Meng family had rice for dinner. Each family member had a bowl of white rice. Zhao Hong felt so heartbroken while they were cooking.
After dinner, Old Lady Meng kept everyone behind and waited until all the dishes in the main room were cleared away before she spoke slowly.
"In the blink of an eye, all the children in our Meng family have grown up, and the whole family is squeezed into one room. Today, I will tell you something important."
Everyone in the Meng family pricked up their ears and listened.
Old Lady Meng glanced around and said, "You know the situation of our family. We only have this much ability. If you three brothers want to split up, just tell Xiaofeng."
The old lady agreed to divide the family property, and the three daughters-in-law of the Meng family were the happiest. Who wouldn't want to be the head of the family?
Old Lady Meng saw everyone's expressions and understood. "If you want to divide it up, I will divide the furniture and vegetable garden into four parts. Do you three brothers and the two old men, the eldest, the second, and the fourth, agree?"
"Mom, I have no objection. You don't have to give me the furniture." Meng Daqiang smiled. He just wanted to share it.
Now that he has made money, he has broadened his horizons. He no longer wants the little dowry money from his daughter that his father gave him, and instead uses it as a fund to support his parents in their old age.
The fourth child nodded, and the confused eldest and second children nodded quickly, "Mom has the final say."
Sun Fang's three daughters-in-law were a little unhappy, but they couldn't say it out loud. How could the old lady get a share? It was all provided for by her youngest son in her old age.
"Okay, I feel relieved when you say that. This house was built by your father and I, so we won't divide it. If you have separated, just move out within half a year."
The eldest and second sons of the Meng family looked at each other in bewilderment. They wanted to build a house after dividing the family property?
