Everyone thought they had made a profit, so there were no obstacles to dividing the family property. After the division, Yan Jiecheng went around buying jobs. There were always some people who had to sell their jobs because of their children or other reasons.
Unless absolutely necessary, most people won't sell their job. Unless it's a life-or-death situation or for other reasons, no one would do something so foolish.
Yan Jiecheng spent half a month searching for a job before finally finding one. He also spent about 100 yuan more than expected, bringing the total cost to approximately 500 yuan.
Fortunately, the job was pretty good. No one expected that Yan Jiecheng would become a cook in the steel mill's canteen. He was even a cook in the same canteen as Sha Zhu.
There aren't many tricks to cooking large pot dishes. Just throw the pre-chopped vegetables into the pot and stir-fry them briefly. As long as they're cooked through, there shouldn't be any major problems.
You can't just choose your job. If you buy someone's job, you have to take that position unless you ask your manager to change your job.
Yan Jiecheng entered the steel rolling mill as a substitute worker, expecting to receive the benefits of a regular employee from the start. With a salary of over thirty yuan and other allowances, Yan Jiecheng and his wife lived a comfortable life. Moreover, not long after, Zhang Qiuju also found a job. Suddenly, Yan Jiecheng and his wife's lives surpassed those of many others. This gave Yan Jiefang other ideas.
Liu Guangtian was less than two years older than him, but Liu had already become a worker in a steel rolling mill. If he could have a job earlier, he wouldn't have to suffer in this family.
Eating porridge every day was becoming unbearable for Yan Jiefang. Even though he was a little young, Yan Jiefang wanted to be independent so that he wouldn't have to go hungry.
Having formed an idea, Yan Jiefang went to find his father, Yan Bugui, but was rejected because Yan Jiefang was still too young. He was under 18, so he couldn't separate from the family, wasn't married, and couldn't have his household registration transferred.
“Dad, if you don’t agree to let me separate from the family, then you have to buy me a job. I can’t continue studying anyway, so I might as well start working sooner. That way, our family’s life will be better.”
Perhaps it was because of Yan Jiecheng's matter that Yan Bugui suddenly had a breakthrough. The usually stingy Yan Bugui surprisingly did not refuse the suggestion.
"Liberation, you said it yourself. Since you don't want to study anymore, don't blame me for not making you study in the future."
"Go buy whatever job you want, and come back for the money once you've finalized the deal."
"Dad, don't worry, I'll go to school tomorrow to withdraw from the program and then find a job. Once I have a job, our family's life will be much better."
Hearing his son's words, Yan Bugui smiled with relief. He could almost see his family's life improving.
Strictly speaking, this change is thanks to Huang Xiaojuan. Originally, Huang Xiaojuan was just an ordinary housewife. But since her divorce from Yi Zhonghai, she bought a job, and now the Huang family is living quite well.
Now they have two children, and the couple's income is very stable. There's nothing wrong with having the neighbors look after the children. After all, other people also take care of their children at home, and they can earn an extra ten yuan a month, so the neighbors are happy to do so.
This way, not only can their own children be kept under control, but it can also generate income for the family. Yan Jiecheng also had this idea in mind when he asked his wife to work.
At worst, they can leave the child with their mother after it's born. They can bring the child back when it's older, so the couple can earn more money.
After getting a job, Yan Jiecheng worked diligently. He became a cook in the large batch of dishes, which didn't require much skill. However, getting a rating required a certain level of culinary ability, which led Yan Jiecheng to immediately set his sights on Sha Zhu. Little did he know that Sha Zhu's family had a culinary tradition, and Sha Zhu's cooking skills were quite good, at least among the top in the steel mill.
Those chefs with talent and a lineage will never go to the factory, because they can get a higher level and better treatment in hotels.
In order to learn cooking skills from Sha Zhu, Yan Jiecheng went to Sha Zhu's side after get off work.
"Shazhu, can I ask you something? We're both cooks at the steel mill now, can I learn cooking from you?"
"You're already 23 this year, it's a bit late to want to learn a trade. If you want to learn from me, you have to follow the rules, at least three years of study and five years of service. Can you accept that?"
Upon hearing Sha Zhu's words, Yan Jie was immediately stunned. He was already 23 this year, and in eight years he would be over 30.
"Is it okay if I don't become an apprentice? I just want to learn some home-style dishes, not your family's Tan family cuisine."
“You should go find someone else! You’re already a cook in the cafeteria, where would you find the time to learn all this from me? Besides, I don’t have that much time to train apprentices, I have to take care of my kids at home. There are so many cooks in the factory, see if anyone is willing to teach.”
Hearing Sha Zhu's words, Yan Jiecheng reluctantly walked away. This was originally a very ordinary matter. But some people just couldn't resist getting stuck on it.
Within two days, the Yan family members couldn't stand Sha Zhu. The two families became enemies over such a small matter.
This further worsened Wei Hua's impression of the Yan family. Adhering to the principle of "it's none of my business," Wei Hua didn't take the matter too seriously.
We live our lives as usual. We spend all our time discussing with Yang Tao how to raise our child. Sometimes, trouble comes knocking unexpectedly.
How did Yan Jiecheng find Sha Zhu a few days ago? Now Yan Bugui is leading Yan Jiefang to find Wei Hua. A few days ago, I don't know how Yan Jiefang got a job, and even became a fitter at a steel rolling mill.
Having a mentor and not having one are two completely different things. Yan Jiefang, who had just entered the steel rolling mill, wanted to find a mentor for himself.
It just so happened that Yan Bugui worked in the same workshop as Wei Hua, and everyone knew about Wei Hua's talent. So, the scene unfolded where Yan Bugui brought his second son to find Wei Hua.
“Hua Zi, Jiefang is now in the same workshop as you. Could you take some time to properly teach him? Don’t worry, I’m not an ignorant person. I’ll have Jiefang become your apprentice right now.”
Upon hearing Yan Bugui's words, Wei Hua's legs trembled with fear. He could accept anyone else's child, but he dared not take in a child from the Yan family; doing so would lead to endless trouble.
"Uncle, let's just forget about this. There are many people in the workshop who are more skilled than me. I can't afford to delay Liberation."
"How about this? Jiefang can come and learn from me when he has time. How much he can learn depends on his own ability. I will teach him like an apprentice, but let's forget about him becoming my apprentice."
“If Jiefang learns from more people, his skills will definitely be very advanced in the future, since he can combine the strengths of many people. This is much better than finding a master.”
Wei Hua's words were indeed pleasant to hear, but his refusal was quite obvious. Those present weren't fools; they naturally understood Wei Hua's meaning.
Since they were neighbors, Yan Bugui couldn't afford to completely break ties. His son still needed to work in Weihua's workshop.
"Hua Zi, then I'll leave this matter to you. I'll have Jiefang learn from you more often when he has free time. You'll have to teach him a lot later."
"Uncle, you can rest assured, I will definitely not hold back anything I can teach you."
Hearing Wei Hua say this, Yan Bugui exchanged a few polite words and then took Yan Jiefang back to his home. As soon as they got home, Yan Bugui flew into a rage, constantly badmouthing Wei Hua to his son.
Wei Hua couldn't even be bothered to listen to those offensive words. She'd rather stay home and take care of her child than waste her time arguing with them.
After a period of learning, Weihua can now bathe and change her child's clothes independently. She also plays with her son when she has free time.
The baby began to show great curiosity about the world around him. His eyes were bright and lively, and he was always staring at the things around him. Weihua and Yangtao would use brightly colored toys to amuse the baby. Watching the baby laugh happily, their hearts were filled with happiness.
The baby has started to learn to roll over, and Weihua and Yangtao stay by his side, encouraging him to try new movements. When the baby successfully rolls over, they clap and cheer, and the baby is even happier because he feels recognized by his parents.
Wei Hua and Yang Tao often tell stories and sing nursery rhymes to their baby, and they feel incredibly satisfied when they see the baby's focused expression.
Babies around three or four months old will make some simple sounds, such as "ee-ya" and "ah-ah". Wei Hua and Yang Tao will listen carefully to the baby's sounds and then respond to the child with their own ee-ya.
