Chapter 162 Selling Work



"If you want to eat, why do you need to wait so long? We don't even know when we'll be back next time. Just ask mom to send it over."

Now that Qingxue is pregnant, he is worried about her taking such a long train ride back home. After all, he has to wait until the baby is born before considering this issue.

It is impossible to go back when the children are too young. We have to wait until they can walk and talk.

After calculating the time, I don’t know if I can go back next winter.

Su Qingxue felt a little embarrassed to always ask others to bring things, even if that person was her mother-in-law.

It takes a lot of time and money to make others spend money, and I always feel like I owe them a big favor.

"Then bring back more bacon next time. We can't always eat what our parents send us. It's better to have a give and take relationship."

When I came here last year, the mushrooms I picked were enough for myself, and I also gave some to Sister Bai and Sister Liu.

This year she plans to pick more, dry them and mail them back, so that she can have an extra dish for her family.

Thinking about those mushrooms from last year, there seemed to be some left in the space, although not many, and I just didn’t have the chance to take them out.

Zhou Huaian might be very familiar with the entire room and the shed outside. He knew exactly what was inside. If he took anything out, it would definitely be discovered.

Zhou Huaian had no objection to Su Qingxue's words. After she got used to receiving their packages, she would no longer think so.

After packing up the things in the package, Zhou Huaian said to Su Qingxue in a negotiating tone: "Why don't you quit your job? You can stay at home to take care of the baby in the future. Anyway, you don't need that little bit of money. What do you think?"

Nowadays, having a job is something that cannot be bought even with money. He was worried that Su Qingxue would not be willing, so he spoke in a humble tone.

But she had no idea that these words really touched Su Qingxue's heart.

Su Qingxue had long since stopped wanting to work in that crappy class. The money she earned there in a year was less than what she could earn by hunting two wild boars in the mountains.

As long as they have time and natural conveniences, and they have connections in the black market, they can catch as many prey as possible, and even earn more in a year than they would in ten years at work.

"Okay, I haven't wanted to go for a long time. I like to go to the mountains to hunt and earn money, and I don't have to worry about lack of meat at home or with my parents."

Zhou Huaian didn't expect Qingxue to be so easy to talk to.

I originally thought that it would take some serious ideological work and a long time before they would agree.

Now I realize that I was overthinking.

"So how do you want to handle that job?"

Su Qingxue thought about the people she knew in the village. The one she played with best was Zhao Meihua. But Zhao Meihua already had a job, and her sister Zhao Xinghua was still in school. The youngest sister was only 13 years old, so they were definitely not useful to their family.

Apart from that, I get along well with Grandma Zhang, who has only one grandson who has a job and can't use it.

After thinking about it, it seems that only the captain's family can use it.

"Go ask the captain's family if they need this job? They have three sons and two daughters-in-law. At that time, they were assigned jobs for two of them, which meant there were still three people without jobs. At least one son was unemployed. Their family definitely needs it. If they want to be impartial, he would buy this job even if he had to sell everything he had."

I heard that his family decided the winner by drawing lots, but the eldest son was not lucky and did not win.

Over the past six months, the eldest son's wife has been very dissatisfied, and her words and deeds are full of bias towards the old man.

"Okay, I'll go ask later. The village should be ready for spring ploughing in half a month. If we go now, they should be at home."

It's just a job, and it was given to the family of team leader Zhao Guoan. I wonder if the family of accountant Qian Xingjia will have any objections?

They still have a younger daughter who is unemployed, but the older daughter is married, and the two sons also have jobs. Although they are dangerous jobs in mines, it is a happy thing for their family.

At this time, it is really good to have a job, so why would you care about whether the job is dangerous or not?

Forget it, don’t think too much about it. After all, they have a better relationship with the captain. The first person they consider must be the one with whom they have a good relationship.

"Then you can sleep at home for a while. You didn't wake up just now. I'll go talk to the captain. If it's confirmed, you can take him to hand over tomorrow."

The handover work is really fast now. As long as both parties have no objection, you can just go and register.

"Go ahead!"

Zhou Huaian packed up all the other things in the package, leaving only a few pieces of defective cloth.

I touched the fabric and it was all pure cotton, very soft.

Su Qingxue was already thinking about what to do with them instead.

You can make soft little clothes, or swaddle them, or use them as diapers.

There seemed to be diapers in the space. After all, this kind of thing is not for eating or drinking, and no one really collects it, except for myself who exists in the space.

Use diapers when you are alone with your child, and use cloth diapers when there are other people around. As long as you are vigilant, you shouldn't be discovered.

Su Qingxue couldn't sleep at the moment. Thinking about making small clothes for the children, she felt like she had endless energy all over her body.

Looking at the sewing machine in front of him, it has not been used since Zhou Huaian bought it last time.

Last time I made a set of overalls, and the fabric for another set was cut, but not sewn yet.

Although you won’t be able to wear them when your belly gets bigger, you can still wear them after giving birth. They have already been cut, so you can just sew them first.

Take out the thread from the space and pass it through little by little until the thread is passed onto the sewing needle.

When I first started using it, I can only say that it is worthy of being a new thing. It is indeed very smooth and it feels like I can sew clothes faster.

Zhou Huaian went straight to the captain's house. The door was wide open and he knew there was someone inside.

"Captain, are you home?"

"Who is it? Come in!" Zhao Guoan was talking to his eldest son Zhao Jiaxing about the upcoming spring plowing, and did not hear clearly who was calling him.

I was quite surprised to see Zhou Huaian come in. "You don't have to go to work today? How did you find time to come here?"

My two younger sons have gone to work, so it’s not time for them to have a holiday yet!

He greeted the team leader and Zhao Jiaxing, and directly told them the purpose of his visit.

"My wife is pregnant with twins, so I'm worried about her continuing to work. I want her to stay at home and take good care of the baby. She's been here for so long, and I'm grateful to the captain for taking care of her. I wanted to ask if your family is interested in that job?"
