Chapter 7: Being Tricked
Father Yu was silent for a moment, then he leaned over to his wife and whispered, "When I was returning home, I ran into someone from the neighborhood office, and he said that our child Xiaowu has signed up to go to the countryside."
Li Xiulan fell on the stool after hearing this, with a look of disbelief on her face. After a long while, she murmured in a low voice: "Impossible, how could our Xiaowu sign up to go to the countryside?"
She looked at her husband and asked, "Did you find out what's going on?"
They started looking for a job for their daughter before she even graduated, because they were worried that their unemployed children would be forced to go to the countryside sooner or later. But nowadays, jobs are so scarce that you can’t buy one even if you want to pay for it.
She grabbed her husband's hand and said anxiously, "We didn't register our child. Could there be a mistake?"
Father Yu thought of what that person had said to him, and he gritted his teeth in anger: "Yu Lao Er took our household registration book this morning to find someone he knew to help our daughter register."
That little bastard even wanted to put his own sister in a difficult position before dividing the household. He is simply evil to the core.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiulan felt as if a breath of anger was stuck in her heart and she couldn't get it out. She immediately felt that the beating she had given Yu Laoer this morning was really not too lenient.
She took a deep breath and looked at her husband: "Let my daughter take over my job, and I will help take care of the two grandchildren at home."
Yu's father shook his head: "It's useless, the name has already been reported." When he learned about this, he had already asked if his daughter's name could be crossed out, but the other party said there was no way.
He looked at his wife and said, "I haven't told you this before, but the factory talked to me a while ago and wanted me to take over Lao Hu's job."
Lao Hu is the director of the steel plant. He is going to be promoted to deputy director next month, so his current job will be vacant.
Because of his excellent skills, the factory wanted to promote him directly without going through the deputy director position.
"What should we do?" Li Xiulan looked at her husband: "Old Yu, are we really going to watch our daughter go to the countryside?"
A few months ago, she proposed to let her daughter take over her job. When Zhou Cuimei, the troublemaker, learned about this, she made a fuss at home every day. After her daughter knew about this, she was unwilling to accept this job no matter what.
If I had known this would happen, I should have taken a tougher stance and forced my daughter to transfer her job.
Father Yu thought for a moment and said slowly, "If it really doesn't work, you can only let your daughter go to the countryside for a year or so, and then you can give up your job to her."
Although Yu Laoer is cunning and vicious, he would not think of enrolling his sister to go to the countryside in such a short time. There must be someone behind him instigating him.
Some people have long disliked him, but he always does things according to the rules, so they can't find any handle on him and can only use his daughter to attack him. It's okay for his daughter to go to the countryside temporarily, so that no one can use this matter to threaten him. Once he has established his foothold in the position of director, he can make some arrangements to get his daughter back.
Although the couple spoke in a low voice, Yu Wanqing possessed the wood-related ability and had keen hearing, so she could hear their conversation clearly.
Going to the countryside?
It’s not impossible.
She can go to the countryside, but that doesn't mean anyone can plot against her and Yu's father behind their backs.
Everyone in the family compound knew that Mr. Yu loved his daughter the most. When he was about to be promoted to director, he made a fuss about her going to the countryside. This was taking advantage of the father's weakness to bully the daughter.
And there was that poisonous snake Yu Laoer, she must crush him to death before going to the countryside.
No one mentioned going to the countryside during lunch. Yu's father urged his daughter to eat more meat and eggs.
Yu Wanqing looked at the meat and eggs in the bowl and recalled that in her previous life, she was nearly thirty years old and had very few opportunities to sit down and eat with her parents, let alone expect her father and mother to pick up food for her.
Coming here, she felt the purest fatherly and motherly love.
In the afternoon, when her parents went to work, she would go and chat with the original owner's friends.
Although the original owner was a girl, she became the boss of the entire steel factory with her strong fists.
She asked her friends to secretly inquire about the gossips of the deputy directors of the steel plant in the family compound.
Those who want to plot against my father must be those who are closest to the director's position, such as the deputy director.
Just take another half step and you will be the director.
But my father, with his excellent skills, became the Yu Yaojin who showed up halfway and blocked the way for others.
She cooked according to the time, and just as she brought the food to the table, her parents came back. A few minutes later, her third brother also came back, followed by her eldest brother and his wife with their two children.
As soon as the two little nephews saw Yu Wanqing, they ran over and asked for a hug.
Yu Wanqing doesn't like naughty children, but these two little nephews are so well-behaved and obedient. They call them "Auntie" in a baby voice. Who can resist the charm of human cubs?
After playing with the two of them for a while, we started eating.
After dinner, Yu's father called the whole family to the living room and first told them that Yu Laoer and his wife had moved out. Everyone had known about this for a long time, so they accepted it calmly.
I even feel that the atmosphere at home is much better without a troublemaker at home.
Father Yu looked at his daughter and opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to tell her about going to the countryside.
Seeing this, Yu Wanqing smiled bitterly: "Dad, Mom, I already know that Yu Lao Er secretly helped me sign up to go to the countryside."
One stone can cause a thousand ripples.
The third brother suddenly stood up and looked at Yu's father: "Dad, is this true?"
"Did Yu Lao Er really sign up his sister to go to the countryside?"
This damn bastard actually dared to plot against his own sister like this, he is simply worse than a beast.
Father Yu nodded and said, "I have really signed up. The place to go to is Nanfu County, Guangdong Province."
My sister-in-law couldn't help frowning when she heard about this place: "In Guangdong Province, we grow rice twice a year and winter wheat once a year. In Nanfu County, we also raise silkworms. We are very busy all year round."
"Dad, can't we go to the countryside near Shangyang?" My sister-in-law is so beautiful, and who knows what she will encounter if she goes to such a far place.
If you go to a nearby countryside, the men at home can visit you often, and no one would dare to have ideas about your sister-in-law.
Father Yu shook his head and said, "I went to see Deputy Director Lu this afternoon, and he said that all the educated youth who have already registered and determined their places cannot change."
"His daughter went to the Northwest, and he was so worried."
Seeing everyone's disappointed look, Yu Wanqing quickly said, "It's okay, I just need to follow the organization's arrangements."
"If my parents, brothers and sisters-in-law are worried that I'm suffering, then you can just send me some delicious food every month."
"Little sister, I will give you my job and go to the countryside." The third brother looked at his sister and said, "You are such a delicate girl, it would be better for you to stay at home."
"No." Yu Wanqing refused directly: "Third brother, you don't have to say anything, I won't agree."
After saying that, she went straight back to her room.
I was worried that if I continued talking, they would really listen to my third brother's advice and let me stay in the city.
She has already occupied the original owner's body. If she still lets her third brother go to the countryside in her place, that would be inhumane.
