Jiang Wanyue's nose stopped bleeding quickly.
She quickly washed herself and changed into clean clothes, and she felt better.
Just as I was about to pour some water, I heard shouting and cursing outside.
"Our Song family is so unlucky that we married such a terrible daughter-in-law!"
"I haven't worked a single day in the fields since I got married seven or eight years ago. I'm supported entirely by Desheng's work points!"
"Desheng is dead, and I, as his own mother, didn't even cry and wail. But you, a miserable daughter-in-law who always wanted to go back to the city, are trying to commit suicide for no one to see. You want to die, right? Fine, go die quickly, and there will be one less nuisance! When you die, I will sell all three of your children, and let them call other people their father and mother. No one will visit your grave and burn incense for you in the future..."
Jiang Wanyue walked out amid a chorus of curses.
The person in front of me, who was about fifty years old, was my original body’s mother-in-law, Zhou Xiugui.
The book mentioned that after the original three children were killed, Zhou Xiugui and her husband, despite opposition from the clan, resolutely removed the fourth son from the family tree, and wrote a letter to Song Laosi's unit to report it... Song Laosi was suspended from his job and investigated...
Jiang Wanyue coughed and said, "I fell into the river accidentally. I didn't want to die. It was a misunderstanding. Everyone misunderstood."
Zhou Xiugui was assigned to harvest rice in the far northern field today. She just heard from the villagers that her fourth daughter-in-law jumped into the river.
At the beginning, her son was obsessed with marrying Jiang Wanyue, and it was useless for her to oppose him.
After Jiang Wanyue came into the family, she still acted like a city girl and did nothing every day. Apart from giving birth to three grandchildren for the Song family, she had never done anything reliable.
Now you dare to seek death!
The three kids have lost their father. If they lose their mother too, how will they survive in the future?
"I don't care if it's a misunderstanding or not. I'm telling you this: if you die, the Song family will definitely not raise your children!" Zhou Xiugui said coldly, "Before Desheng was alive, you could have a meal even if you didn't work. Now that Desheng is dead, you have to earn work points for me!"
Jiang Wanyue's eyes went dark.
Neither the original body nor she could do farm work, which was tantamount to asking for her life.
"Other educated youths also came from the city. They can do it, so why can't you?" Zhou Xiugui curled her lips and said, "We are harvesting late rice now. I don't think you can do this job. I have discussed it with your father-in-law and decided to let you sweep pig manure. It smells a bit, but it's easier than working in the fields."
Jiang Wanyue's eyes widened: "Sweep, sweep the pig manure?"
Zhou Xiugui sneered: "You think it smells bad? Fine, why don't you do farm work, harvest rice or till the fields?"
Jiang Wanyue: “…”
She doesn't even know what whole field farming is.
Perhaps she was too upset, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and she asked, "Who will be the agricultural technician of the brigade in the future?"
Agricultural technicians, in modern terms, are technicians in the village, responsible for breeding and cultivating seedlings, treating diseases and preventing insects, and also providing guidance on the use of diesel engines, threshers, flour mills and other machines in the village...
It was only a few years ago that it was stipulated that each brigade must have an agricultural branch clerk. The brigade selected five people who had graduated from junior high school to study in the county. In the end, the original husband Song Desheng got the job of agricultural branch clerk with the first place in the exam.
Agricultural technicians work part-time and earn full work points every day, as well as a subsidy of six yuan per month.
This is why the original body has been able to live a decent life even though he has not been out of the field for so many years.
Zhou Xiugui raised her eyelids: "What, what do you want to do?"
Nowadays, grassroots jobs can be passed on to family members. Now that Desheng is gone, they can choose someone from the Song family to fill the position, as long as the basic requirements are met.
But agricultural technicians not only have to know how to farm, but also have to know how to operate agricultural machinery. There are so many people in the Song family, but not one of them meets the requirements.
My family thought that if we sold this job to the brigade secretary, we could probably get 40 or 50 yuan...
Jiang Wanyue said honestly, "I can't lift it with my hands, and I can't carry it on my shoulders. I can't even sweep the pig manure all day. By then, the villagers will definitely have opinions about my father as the team leader. I can't bring trouble to my father."
She paused and continued, "Although I went to high school, I don't understand diesel engines, so I can't be an agricultural technician."
Seeing that she had such a clear understanding of herself, Zhou Xiugui's face became better: "Just say what you want to say."
Jiang Wanyue smiled and said, "Mom, what do you think about me becoming a teacher?"
Looking at the entire brigade, the only job suitable for a modern person like her is teacher.
In fact, she was also impatient to deal with children, but at least it was easier than working in the fields.
Zhou Xiugui suddenly laughed out of anger: "Can you be a teacher just because you want to?"
The team leader is only in charge of the village's production and has no influence over the school.
"Swap them with agricultural technicians." Jiang Wanyue said, "Teachers only record eight work points a day, and only receive four yuan in subsidies a month, which is far less than agricultural technicians. Ask more. I believe there are people willing to swap."
Zhou Xiugui immediately started to ponder it in his mind.
Selling a job is like selling a hen that lays eggs. It is not cost-effective no matter how much you sell it for.
It is definitely better to use it to find a new job than to sell it.
She said, "This matter is not so easy to handle. I will go back and discuss it with your father. If it doesn't work out, you still have to go to the fields and stop thinking about unorthodox methods every day."
After she finished speaking, she hurriedly walked out of the fenced yard.
Jiang Wanyue sighed.
These days teachers also work part-time. They have to go to the fields during the busy farming season and work even during long holidays.
But there is no way, this is the best option.
She looked up and saw three children in the corner of the yard. The eldest son was bundling firewood, the daughter was feeding chickens, and the youngest son was sitting on the ground playing in the mud. His hands and face were so dirty that it was simply unbearable to look at.
She walked over and pulled her youngest son up: "Come on, let me wash your face."
