Pickled vegetables and rolled tofu is considered the best dish these days.
As the saying goes, "Eating pickles and rolling tofu is worse than the emperor." This is the truth.
There were three large bowls of cornmeal in front of the three of them, and a large plate of steamed buns in the middle of the table.
Qin Huairu sent Jia Dongxu to work at the steel rolling mill in the afternoon, and then went back to her parents' home. She didn't know that Liu Huizhen had got a job at the street office.
Jia Dongxu had just returned from the factory and didn't know either.
The huge table of dishes prepared in the evening was the most sumptuous meal in the past few months.
The two of them picked up the steamed buns and began to eat them voraciously, but Jia Zhangshi on the side did not move her chopsticks.
"Mom, why don't you eat? Aren't we celebrating today that Dongxu got his first-level machinist certificate?" Qin Huairu asked cautiously.
"Eat, eat, eat, all you do is eat!" Jia Zhang's face was scratched by the little woman beside the well, but the two people in front of her didn't notice.
Jia Zhang was so angry!
His hands slammed loudly on the table. "Do you know that Widow Liu from our yard found a job at the neighborhood office? She makes twenty yuan a month, almost as much as our Dongxu!"
"Work for the Street Office?"
Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu put down their bowls and chopsticks when they heard this.
The jobs in the street office are all stable jobs. There is only one position for each person, and many people try their best to get in.
The youngest son of the Zhang family in the yard just went to the street office to do a minor job, but he spent a full three thousand yuan!
Liu Huizhen's family is so poor that they can barely make ends meet, how could she find a job in the street office?
Jia Zhang spat, "Who knows how she found him? She's a widow, so of course she'd resort to some shady tactics!"
"Qin Huairu, talk about yourself. We both come from the countryside, but how come Widow Liu can work in the street office, but you can't?" Aunt Jia was so angry!
Qin Huairu also looked aggrieved. She didn't know why she was brought up again while they were having a meal!
Qin Huairu knew that her mother-in-law had always disliked her for being from the countryside, so she chose her words carefully.
"Mom, I think Liu Huizhen's job will only earn her a fixed salary, but Dongxu is different. He's already a first-level fitter at such a young age, and he can become a second-level fitter in the future. Even after that, it's not impossible for him to become an eighth-level fitter!"
"In this regard, Liu Huizhen's entire family can't compare to him! Besides, Liu Xiaojun doesn't even have a job. What's the difference between him and a street urchin? Unlike our Dongxu, who is a worker!"
As soon as these words were spoken, they touched Jia Zhang's heart.
"That's true, come on, let's eat!"
Jia Zhang's complexion improved a lot.
Liu Huizhen's home.
Everyone is here.
Everyone knows about Liu Huizhen's affairs.
Liu Xiaojun also wanted to take this opportunity to tell them that he had obtained a first-level machinist certificate, to make the whole family even happier!
