What, what!
Liang Jinheng will go to work in the county town after the New Year. He has been assigned to work in the county!
Even though he didn't specify what he was doing in the county or what position he held, the mere mention of the word "county town" completely stunned Liang Hongling and the other two.
What is a county town? It is the most prosperous and lively place they know!
Although they have always called the town a city, there is no comparison between the town and the county town.
The county town is the real big city!
"You, what kind of job are you going to do in the county, and where are you going to live after you get there?" Miao Chunhong asked dizzyly.
Liang Jinheng glanced at them, his tone still indifferent.
"I'm going to work at the steel mill in the county town. They've even allocated me a family housing unit, so I don't have to worry about having nowhere to live after I get there."
Working in a steel factory also gives you a house!
What a great treatment this is!
Liang Hongling and the other two were almost going crazy, crazy with jealousy and regret.
They hated him so much. Why didn't Liang Jinheng tell them this earlier? If he had told them earlier, he would have to go to the county town to work as a worker. Would they still treat him like this when they split up the family business?
That's a worker's job in the county town, which is many times better than the job of a worker in Liang Jinbu's town!
If everyone hadn't thought that Liang Jinheng would have to return to the countryside to be a farmer after retiring from the army, they wouldn't have been so cruel to him!
The family of three is now regretting so much that their hearts, livers, spleens, lungs and kidneys are aching.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world. After Liang Jinheng briefly explained the matter, he turned around and went to find Wen Wan.
He said this not simply to piss off his parents, but to make it clear to them that he would probably spend less time at home in the future. If they wanted to cause trouble for him, fine, he would tell them his address and be there for them to do whatever they wanted.
As for the fact that he was going to be the deputy director of the steel plant, he didn't say it because he was afraid of being harassed by them again.
Wen Wan also came with Liang Wen and Liang Dashan. They were very satisfied with the two rooms and decided on the spot to ask a few young men in the team to move the things in.
Wen Wan certainly had no objection. She was even hoping that Liang Wen and Liang Dashan would come over earlier to calm the situation, so that Old Man Liang and his family would not dare to do anything anymore.
However, Wen Wan noticed that the expressions on the faces of Liang Hongling and the other three were very strange, as if they had just received some news that shocked them so much that they were speechless.
She glanced at Liang Jinheng doubtfully, and Liang Jinheng whispered, "I told them about my work."
Wen Wan was stunned for a moment, then smiled in understanding.
No wonder Old Man Liang and the others looked like they were struck by lightning. They must be regretting it so much now.
They thought that their eldest son would have no future after leaving the army and would have to go home to be a farmer, but it turned out that after leaving the army, he was still more promising than their son Liang Jinbu.
Unfortunately, Liang Jinheng has been heartbroken by their previous actions and will no longer listen to them or help them as before.
As long as Liang Hongling and the others are unhappy, Wen Wan will be in a good mood.
She said to Liang Jinheng directly in front of the three people: "Today is a good day, let's have twice-cooked pork for lunch!"
Liang Jinheng's eyes lit up. No matter what kind of meat it was, as long as he had meat to eat, he would be satisfied.
"good!"
So the couple returned to the house happily, leaving Liang Hongling and the other two in the yard with their hearts bleeding.
If they had not spoken so decisively, had not acted so harshly, and had not completely disappointed Liang Jinheng, would they still be able to eat the twice-cooked pork now?
Not only that, they will be able to go to the county town with Liang Jinheng to enjoy life in the future.
"Wow! Why, why is it like this? Dad, Mom, go and persuade big brother, go and talk to him!"
Liang Hongling was so sad that she actually cried out of anger.
When she thought about how she originally had an older brother who worked as a worker in the county town, but unfortunately he had now alienated his family, and that she would not be able to get any benefits from him in the future, she felt so heartbroken that she could hardly breathe.
She shook Miao Chunhong's arm desperately, asking her to beg for mercy and apologize to her eldest brother, and questioned her why she was so cruel to her eldest brother and sister-in-law.
If she hadn't deliberately tormented her sister-in-law, perhaps everything wouldn't be like this now!
Miao Chunhong felt dizzy from being shaken by Liang Hongling, but it was nothing compared to the pain she felt in her heart.
How could she have imagined that? How could she have imagined that?
If she had known this day would come, she would never have been so cruel to Wen Wan even if she died!
"Okay, stop arguing! What's the point of talking now that things have come to this?" Old man Liang looked at Liang Hongling and Miao Chunhong with an ugly expression. He really couldn't bear to see the two of them looking so regretful.
Even if he actually regretted it in his heart, would it be useful to regret it now?
"Go back to the house first! Don't embarrass yourself outside!"
Since Liang Jinheng said this in front of them just now, it means he doesn't care about their feelings at all.
This kid is harder than iron when he gets ruthless!
Old man Liang grabbed Liang Hongling and Miao Chunhong one by one and dragged them back to Liang Jinbu's room.
Only after hearing Liang Hongling's crying in the yard disappear did Wen Wan withdraw her attention.
She knew that Liang Hongling and the others would be furious if they knew Liang Jinheng's job. Now seeing this scene, it was indeed similar to what she had guessed.
However, what surprised her was that Liang Jinheng didn't care about their feelings at all.
She couldn't help but stare at Liang Jinheng in surprise.
It is clear in that book that Liang Jinheng regards his parents and siblings as his closest relatives.
In that book, he mentioned what he said when he was on a blind date with the "female protagonist" Lin Miao. He said that his ex-wife had a bad relationship with his parents and siblings, and her usual actions made them hate and sad, so he wanted to find someone who could get along well with the family, be filial to his parents, and treat his siblings well.
From these words, it is not difficult to see how much Liang Jinheng cares about his parents and siblings.
But now it seems that what he showed seemed to be somewhat different from what was described in the book.
At least that's the case today.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Liang Jinheng couldn't help but ask Wen Wan when he saw her staring at him.
Wen Wan came back to her senses and said casually, "It's nothing."
But Liang Jinheng didn't believe it.
Seeing the two children on the other side, he couldn't help but lean over to Wen Wan's ear and whispered, "Do you miss your brother?"
Every time Liang Jinheng called himself "brother", he had a fever.
Wen Wan simply reached out her hand and twisted his arm hard with an expressionless face.
"hiss!"
This time he didn't use any strength at all, and Liang Jinheng's face turned pale with pain.
"Wanwan, you really don't feel sorry at all!"
Wen Wan glanced at him coldly: "How can I not feel distressed? How about I rub it for you again?"
Liang Jinheng was so scared that he immediately stepped back one meter.
"No."
"If you have nothing to do, go wash the vegetables and meat!" Wen Wan rolled her eyes at him, turned around and continued reading.
Liang Jinheng didn't dare to do anything now, so he had to take the things outside to deal with them.
noon.
Wen Wan and her family had a big meal, and the aroma of the twice-cooked pork drifted straight to Liang Hongling's family next door. The smell made Liang Hongling and Miao Chunhong, who had just felt a little better, so angry that they covered their chests and started wailing again.
"This is going to kill us!"
Hearing the crying and shouting coming from next door, Da Wa and Er Niu, who were eating, were both confused.
"Mom, is grandma in danger?"
Wen Wan paused while picking up the food, "No."
"Then why did she say someone wanted to kill her?"
Wen Wan felt amused and decided to take this opportunity to teach the two children a lesson. She said with a straight face, "That's because grandma did something wrong and is regretting it now, so she said that."
"Before you make any decision in the future, you must first consider the consequences of doing so, otherwise you will be like grandma, who made the wrong decision and regretted it so much."
After hearing this, Da Wa and Er Niu were both shocked and kept Wen Wan's words firmly in their hearts.
It seems that they must think carefully before making decisions in the future, otherwise they will be like grandma, regretting it as if someone wanted to kill her!
This is too scary.
The two children made up their minds that they would never do this again.
Liang Jinheng next to him was a little dumbfounded.
Unexpectedly, Wen Wan would seize this opportunity to educate her child.
However, this also made him feel a little guilty and emotional, and he felt that he still had a long way to go in educating his children.
After lunch, Liang Wen and Liang Dashan asked people to move the things over. Liang Jinheng also went to help. It took everyone a whole afternoon to sort everything out.
The noise was so loud that the neighbors came out to watch.
When everyone learned that the brigade headquarters would be moved to Liang Jinheng's home, they were all surprised.
Especially when they learned that the houses they rented to the brigade headquarters were those two high-quality brick houses, the shock reached its peak.
Aren’t those two rooms occupied by Old Man Liang and his wife and Liang Hongling? Why are they rented to the brigade headquarters now? Where do they live then?
The group was very curious, and finally found out after some investigation that Liang Jinheng's family had split up two days ago. Not only that, the two rooms were also taken back by Liang Jinheng!
"He spent his own money to renovate this house and never lived in it for a single day. It's good to have it back."
"But if I take it back and rent it out without living in it myself, wouldn't that be a loss?"
"What's the loss? It's better than having that old couple and his sister monopolizing the house! At least I can earn two dollars a month now!"
The fact that the brigade spent money to rent a house also concerned all the members, so Liang Wen and the others did not hide it from everyone.
Now everyone gathered in the Liang family's courtyard and discussed this matter enthusiastically.
Liang Hongling and the other two people in the room closed the door, but the sound still continued to come in through the crack of the door. The three of them were almost driven crazy by the sound.
Especially when they heard words like "the old couple and his sister occupied the place" and "we were at a disadvantage in the past", Miao Chunhong and Liang Hongling became even more angry.
As his parents' son and her elder brother, shouldn't Liang Jinheng give them a good house to live in?
This group of people must have been jealous of them all along, and now they are making sarcastic remarks!
"Humph, what a bunch of opportunists!" Liang Hongling cursed angrily.
Miao Chunhong lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes. She was still thinking about what Liang Jinheng had said about going to the county town to work. She felt heartbroken and regretful.
She looked so hopeless in life that she seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
Seeing her like this, Old Man Liang didn't know what to say.
He knew that the old woman had a mental illness and she had to adjust herself.
but.
"Hongling, have you decided what you want to do after the New Year? You're not a child anymore, and you've seen the situation at home. We, and your eldest brother, can't help you. You either have to find a job in town or work in the fields with us."
Old Man Liang felt a little reluctant when he said this.
After all, Liang Hongling is one of the few high school students in their team. Even if she didn't learn anything special in high school, she still has the academic qualifications. If she really goes home to work in the fields, it would not only be a waste of talent, but also be shameful.
Others might say that their family can’t survive without the eldest brother.
When Liang Hongling heard this, her expression instantly became even uglier.
She felt that her father was deliberately poking at her scars!
If she could find a good job, would she still stay at home?
But he was right about one thing. If I didn't find a solution, I was afraid I would have to stay and work in the production team.
So in the end Liang Hongling could only say something in silence.
"I understand. I'll go to town in a couple of days to ask my classmates!"
......
Probably because Liang Wen, Liang Dashan and others moved in, Old Man Liang and the other three really didn't dare to do anything anymore, so Wen Wan spent the remaining two days very comfortably.
At the time agreed with Dong Xiuping, she had to go to town to try out the class.
Early in the morning, she packed her things and prepared to leave.
Because she was going there for some serious business, Wen Wan didn't plan to bring her two children with her.
She originally planned to go alone, but Liang Jinheng was worried. Besides, now that they had a bicycle at home, it would be more convenient, so he insisted on taking Wen Wan there.
The two children were placed directly in the brigade office. There were cadres taking turns there every day, so it was no problem for them to help look after them for an hour.
Wen Wan couldn't refuse, so she had to let Liang Jinheng ride his bike to take her to town.
Around 6:00 a.m., the two arrived in town.
Liang Jinheng sent Wen Wan to the middle school gate, and Dong Xiuping was already waiting there.
Seeing Wen Wan and Liang Jinheng coming together, he couldn't help but joked, "Oh, they even have a special pick-up."
Wen Wan looked at her helplessly, "Okay, let's not talk about anything else. Have the leaders and others arrived? Am I not late?"
"No, you're here very early!" Dong Xiuping knew that Wen Wan was the type of person who would arrive early, so she came here early to wait.
Fortunately, she arrived more than an hour early, but Wen Wan also came as soon as she arrived.
Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her say that she was not late.
Liang Jinheng next to him then asked how long the trial lecture would take so that he could arrange his time and decide whether to wait here or go home first and come back in a few hours.
In response, Dong Xiuping said, "It's just a trial lesson. It won't take long, forty minutes at most. Why don't you just walk around town and come over when it's almost time?"
It took him about forty minutes to ride his bike from home to the town, and it would be troublesome to walk again, so Liang Jinheng decided to just walk around the town for a while and take Wen Wan home after she finished her class.
Wen Wan didn't say anything. After agreeing on a time to meet with Liang Jinheng, she followed Dong Xiuping to the middle school.
"While there is still time, I'll tell you about it later." Wen Wan had been preparing at home for a long time, but she was still a little nervous.
Of course Dong Xiuping agreed.
It happened to be winter vacation, so the two of them found a classroom and started practicing.
Wen Wan only felt relieved when Dong Xiuping gave her a thumbs up after she finished reading it once.
"No problem at all. The ideas are clear, the key points are fully grasped, and the explanations are easy to understand. It's better than many teachers in our school!"
"That's not so exaggerated," Wen Wan couldn't help laughing, "I just hope I won't be too nervous later."
"Haha, no, just use the same vigor you used when lecturing me just now!"
After the two of them exchanged a few more words, the leaders who were attending the lecture arrived shortly afterwards.
Wen Wan cheered up and started the trial lecture seriously.
Half an hour later, Wen Wan's trial lecture ended. When she finished her last sentence, she saw that the leaders below all looked satisfied and nodded continuously.
Seeing their reactions, Wen Wan couldn't help but feel a little excited.
If she didn't misunderstand, then she would have passed the trial lecture?
Soon, after several leaders discussed for a while, someone spoke first.
"Comrade Wen, right? You used to be a student in our town middle school. Not bad, not bad. Well done to the students of town middle school. You taught this class very well."
"Well, I'm more than qualified to be a classroom teacher."
"Then let's just decide..." She?
A leader was just about to decide on Wen Wan when a female teacher sitting in the corner suddenly spoke.
"She must have practiced for so long to be able to perform so smoothly in this class. Normally, we wouldn't just focus on this one lesson; we'd cover other knowledge and content as well."
"Comrade Wen, why don't you talk about something else and give us another lesson? Then we can better discern your abilities."
After hearing this, the other leaders and teachers looked at each other and hesitated for a while, but in the end no one spoke out to refute.
After all, what he said was true. Moreover, the person who was speaking was the principal's younger sister. Although she was only a subject teacher in terms of age, she had a lot of connections behind her, and people generally wouldn't give her face in front of her.
Wenwan's emotions calmed down as the female teacher spoke.
She shook hands and nodded, "Okay, then why don't you just pick a section of knowledge for me to teach? That way, I can make sure I'm not just reviewing that part of the material."
Although she didn't know this female teacher, she could see that she was hostile towards her.
Regardless of where this hostility comes from, I have to deal with the problem at hand first.
Wen Wan was worried that she would use the same excuse to ask her to continue lecturing, so she simply let the female teacher choose the course for her and let her pick any content at random. This way, there would be no possibility that she would carefully analyze part of the content.
The female teacher obviously didn't expect Wen Wan to make such a request and asked her to help choose the content.
She was planning to use the same excuse to get Wen Wan to continue speaking!
But since she said so, if I don’t choose, others will be able to see something.
So the female teacher could only help her pick a lesson at random with a cold face.
She teaches Chinese, and Wen Wan is now giving a trial lecture on mathematics. She knows nothing about mathematics, so she just randomly points to a section of content.
The math teachers around took a look at the content and their expressions changed slightly.
Because she chose the most difficult section in the book.
Wen Wan took a look at that part of the content, quickly built a framework in her mind, then organized her language and continued her lecture.
Wenwan still gave a brilliant lecture on the content of this section. The teachers who were worried that she might stumble in her lecture now applauded her for her excellent teaching.
"The content of this section is quite difficult, but Teacher Wen was able to explain it in such detail and without any complexity. It's obvious that he has really thought through the content." Some people even started calling him Teacher Wen.
"That's right. I might not be able to explain this content as clearly as she did. Comrade Wen seems to be a real teacher."
The female teacher who gave Wen Wan the questions had a very ugly expression on her face.
She didn't expect Wen Wan to complete the lecture so well.
All the math teachers present praised her. If she still objected, it would be too obvious that she was being targeted.
So in the end the female teacher could only reluctantly say, "Well said."
Only at this point did Wen Wan finally feel relieved.
"Then Mr. Wen, please go back and wait for our notification. The results will be known the day after tomorrow at the latest."
The director stood up, gave his final instructions, and left with several teachers and leaders.
However, with his call of "Teacher Wen", Wen Wan and Dong Xiuping both felt that this time the substitute teacher was a sure thing.
After everyone had left, Dong Xiuping came over from the back of the classroom and said angrily, "What's going on with Teacher Lu? Does she have a grudge against you? Otherwise, why would she deliberately pick a fight with you?"
Wen Wan shook her head, recalling the female teacher's face. She was very sure that she had never seen her before.
"Who is that Teacher Lu, Sister Xiuping? Tell me about her."
Seeing that Wen Wan was also confused, Dong Xiuping quickly gave her some scientific explanation.
The female teacher just now is called Lu Li, she is about 40 years old this year, and is a Chinese teacher in the grade. She has been a teacher in the school for many years but has never achieved much. However, the reason why she can sit so firmly in this position is also related to her brother being the principal.
"Principal?" Wen Wan frowned and recalled that she had no relationship or grudge against the principal.
Dong Xiuping was also confused.
"Then why is she doing this? You could have passed the lesson just by explaining it once, but she insisted that you explain the entire section again. Luckily you reacted quickly, otherwise you might have had to explain it a third or fourth time!"
Wen Wan didn't know why Lu Li was targeting her, but after learning that Lu Li had some background, she suddenly became a little worried about coming to the school to teach.
But she could only pray that she was overthinking it. Lu Li had no grudges against her, so she shouldn't go to such great lengths to prevent her from becoming a teacher.
Finally, Wen Wan and Dong Xiuping agreed that if there were any results here, she would help them keep an eye on it first. She would come to the town tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and they could just go directly to her to ask about the results.
Dong Xiuping agreed. Knowing that Wen Wan was going to find Liang Jinheng, she just sent her to the school gate and said goodbye.
Wen Wan went out and saw Liang Jinheng standing next to the bicycle.
He is tall and has long legs, standing as straight as a pine tree. When no one is around him, he often has a serious face and stares coldly at the passers-by, making him particularly conspicuous among the passers-by.
And the moment he saw Wen Wan appear at the door, the frost in his eyes seemed to melt, and he called her with a smile.
"Wanwan."
Seeing him like this, Wen Wan couldn't help but think of when she was dating Liang Jinheng. Whenever he came back from the army, he would wait for her at the school gate.
At that time he was still pursuing her, and he would definitely have a gift in his hand, maybe food, maybe a bouquet of flowers, or maybe some small gadget he made by himself.
It would be fine if she didn’t think about it, but when she did, Wen Wan found that she still missed that time quite a bit.
Because Liang Jinheng was really good to me at that time.
But now that I'm married, I'm afraid he won't spend so much effort to please me.
Wen Wan felt inexplicably lost.
But unexpectedly, the next moment, she saw Liang Jinheng take out a hot roasted sweet potato from his pocket.
"I just passed by the state-owned restaurant and saw they were selling roasted sweet potatoes today, so I bought one for you. Eat it while it's hot."
As he said this, he peeled off the skin and handed the roasted sweet potato to Wen Wan's mouth.
Wen Wan was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted. Her face felt a little hot for some reason. She quickly took the roasted sweet potato from his hand, then looked around uneasily. Seeing that no one noticed them, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is still on the street, please be careful of the impact!"
Liang Jinheng doesn't care about that. After all, he and Wen Wan are a legal couple.
Seeing Wen Wan take the roasted sweet potato, he asked about her lecture just now.
Wen Wan lowered her head and said, "Not bad."
What she said should be fine, but as for what the final result will be, there is no guarantee.
When Liang Jinheng heard this, he couldn't help feeling a little melancholy.
On the one hand, he felt that Wen Wan naturally had the ability to be a substitute teacher, but on the other hand, he felt that it was better that she didn't become one. After all, in this way, she could go to the county with him without any worries.
“When will the results be out?”
"The day after tomorrow at the latest."
Tomorrow is the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month. They are going to the county and will probably come back from the county the day after tomorrow. So they can come to the town to inquire about the results tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and the timing just matches.
Only after Wen Wan finished eating the roasted sweet potatoes did the two of them go home.
Shortly after they left, a young girl pushed the door and walked into the town middle school's Chinese language office.
"Mom, what's the result? Has the substitute teacher been decided?"
Lu Li raised her head when she heard that, her expression not looking good.
"That one called Wen Wan is quite capable. The other teachers all think she's pretty good."
"What do you mean? Are we really going to choose her as a substitute teacher? I've already promised my classmates, so I can't go back on my word!" The young girl looked annoyed. "She's just a substitute teacher, not a regular teacher. Is there any need for such a big fanfare for a trial lesson? There aren't many people attending the class anyway. We're all just here to spend time at school, so whoever teaches makes a difference."
Now that the college entrance examination is no longer in existence, high school students feel less and less hopeful, so many of them simply come to school to avoid labor and just muddle through.
Lu Li was frightened by her words, "Keep your voice down! We're still in school!"
It would be troublesome if other teachers heard it.
Although she actually thought the same way, some teachers still talk about responsibility every day. No matter whether they are really worried about their students or just talking big, as a teacher, she should not say such words.
And as a teacher's daughter, she shouldn't say it either.
The young girl pouted unhappily.
"I don't care. I've already promised her this. If I don't get her in, I'll be so embarrassed!"
Seeing that her daughter was truly troubled by this matter, Lu Li could only wave her hands helplessly and said, "Alright, I'll talk to your uncle about this later and see if we can find a way to get your classmate in."
As for the girl named Wen Wan, there is nothing we can do about it. It's her bad luck that she has to apply for the substitute teacher position at this critical moment.
Although she teaches well, it's a pity that I'm afraid I can't give her the position of substitute teacher.
When the young girl heard her words, she immediately took Lu Li's hand happily and said coquettishly: "Yeah! I knew mom is the best!"
......
Wen Wan didn't know about the changes here. After returning home, she quickly packed her things. She would go to her mother's house early the next morning to pick up her third brother, and then go directly to the county town.
Because she was thinking about taking her third brother to the hospital for medical treatment and going to the county town to see the family housing tomorrow, Wen Wan didn't have any extra thoughts to think about the outcome of the substitute teacher.
There are still many things to worry about tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Wen Wan and Liang Jinheng took Da Wa and Er Niu and some luggage to the Wen family.
Third brother Wen Min has already packed up.
When Wen Wan went there, her mother brought her into the house immediately and carefully handed her a stack of money wrapped in a small handkerchief.
There were both small and large amounts, which added up to about twenty yuan.
"This is all the money our family can scrape together. Spend it as you see fit. And be careful with your third brother. He's in such poor health, and this is his first time traveling far away. I was so worried I couldn't sleep last night."
Old Lady Wen frowned, unable to hide the worry between her brows.
Seeing this, Wen Wan could only comfort her.
"Don't worry, Mom. I will definitely take good care of my third brother. Besides, Liang Jinheng is here, so he'll be fine."
Well, with her son-in-law Liang Jinheng around, she does feel a lot more at ease.
She told Wen Wan to be careful and take precautions, and then they set off.
