the next day.
Since Du Hong had asked for leave, Li Xu took her to sleep a little longer, and they didn't get up until after nine o'clock.
But when she walked out of the room and saw Aunt Hu and others in the yard, Du Hong seemed a little embarrassed.
As for Li Xu, he acted as if nothing had happened and greeted everyone openly.
After breakfast, the two chatted with Aunt Hu and the others for a while, then took the candies and cigarettes they had prepared in advance and rode their bikes to the Du family.
When he arrived at the place, Li Xu was relieved to see that the Du family courtyard was full of people.
Fortunately, I brought a lot of things with me, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing.
The news of the two's arrival quickly reached the Du family, and then they saw Du Ming and his wife and Du Feng brothers walking out of the crowd.
Seeing them, Li Xu and the others shouted happily, "Dad, Mom."
“Hey.”
Du Ming and his wife responded, then looked at Du Hong carefully.
Du Ming was fine, he didn't say a word, but Yang Li was different. She looked at Du Hong while holding her hand and asking her all sorts of questions.
In fact, she knew very well that Du Hong's life in the Li family would not be bad, but she still couldn't help but ask a few questions.
Du Hong answered her questions one by one with a smile on her face, and it was obvious that she was living a good life.
Seeing this scene, Du Ming also smiled, then retracted his gaze and took Li Xu to introduce his relatives and friends.
In fact, Li Xu knew quite a few people here.
When Du Ming and his wife broke off their relationship with Du Qing last year, they introduced him to these people.
Li Xu asked Du Sen to push the cart and follow behind, and then asked Du Feng to help distribute cigarettes. He himself bared his teeth, distributed candies and called people according to Du Ming's instructions.
After getting to know everyone in the hospital, Li Xu's face became stiff from smiling.
However, this was not the end. Many people then surrounded him and talked to him, but he still had to respond with a smile.
Fortunately, they were talking about common topics and no one mentioned work, which allowed him to keep smiling.
We chatted until after eleven o'clock, when the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving only four people.
When they saw one of them, Du Ming and his wife's faces instantly turned extremely ugly. They knew that the reason this person stayed was definitely to talk about work.
But they didn't know whether the other three had the same idea.
After thinking about it, Yang Li said deliberately, "Second brother, it's noon, hurry up and go to the kitchen to cook."
She knew that if he just wanted to chat and had no other purpose, he would say goodbye and leave after hearing this; if he had a purpose, he should have said it out loud.
As she expected, one of them immediately said goodbye after he left. After he left, the remaining three looked at each other, and then a middle-aged man spoke first.
"Nephew-in-law, we are not strangers. I will speak frankly. My eldest son is in his twenties and hangs out on the streets all day, so I would like to ask for your help. Can you find him a job? How much does this job cost? Just tell me, I will never refuse."
Seeing someone taking the lead, the remaining two quickly followed suit, "Niece-in-law, my eldest brother is the same. See if you can help. Don't worry, if you can, your uncle will never treat you unfairly."
"Nephew-in-law, if I had no other choice, I wouldn't say this. My eldest son has taken a fancy to a girl, but the problem is that she has a job. Now my eldest son is trying to commit suicide all day long, so can you please help me?"
Li Xu had been mentally prepared for this scene, so he was not surprised. He just suppressed his smile and replied calmly, "You overestimate me. If I had this ability, I would have arranged it for Brother Feng long ago."
These three people were their relatives and friends, so Du Ming and his wife couldn't say anything about them. They could only testify for Li Xu to dispel his idea. "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I mentioned this to Xiao Xu before, hoping he'd help Xiao Feng find a job. But you all saw how Xiao Feng ended up staying home."
"Yes, even the temporary job for my second son's wife was paid for by us."
The middle-aged man who spoke first didn't care about what they said. He continued with a smile, "My nephew-in-law, you're being too modest. You were able to get Xiaohong to the supply and marketing cooperative, and even got her a regular employee early. With that kind of ability, you should have no problem getting an ordinary job."
The other two did not speak, but stared at Li Xu's face, wanting to see how he would answer.
Li Xu took a sip of the water on the table, then slowly explained, "I'm not that capable of arranging for anyone to join the supply and marketing cooperative. This job is an internal benefit given to our motorcade by the director of the supply and marketing cooperative. As long as you're a regular driver, there's a spot available, and you can get a regular job early. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask around."
"Ah?" The three of them exclaimed at the same time.
It was obvious that they didn't know the origin of this job.
In fact, it is not their fault, because these days most jobs are absorbed internally, and it is difficult for outsiders to know the specific situation.
The expressions of astonishment on the three people's faces took a long time to disappear, and were replaced by deep envy.
They are really jealous of this benefit...
Then the middle-aged woman said, "Nephew-in-law, even if that's the case, it shouldn't be that difficult for you to get a job. For example, several leaders from different companies attended your wedding, and you even called them uncle. With such connections, I wouldn't believe you if you said you couldn't do it."
"Yes, yes, we saw it with our own eyes." The other two echoed.
In fact, on the day when the Du family severed their relationship with Du Qing, Li Xu said that there was a director in the county who was his brother, and the director of the plastic factory was his uncle, and these two people had sent him cakes.
