Chapter 125 The Cannon Fodder Sister-in-law of the Seventies 16
Shouldn't this woman be begging him with tears in her eyes? Why did she agree so readily?
Huang Weiye stared at Su Li with anger on his face: "Have you been waiting for this day for a long time?"
Su Li rolled his eyes and sneered, "What? Didn't you want a divorce? What do you mean now?"
Wong Wai-man was worried his elder brother might regret it, so he advised: "Brother, divorce him. What is the point of such an unfilial and unvirtuous woman? Think about our mother. Are you worthy of her?"
The veins on Huang Weiye’s forehead bulged and his fists were clenched tightly. It was his fault that he was incompetent and he was sorry to his mother!
The next day, Su Li quickly obtained a divorce certificate with Huang Weiye.
Huang Weiye saw Su Li leave so cleanly and without any sense of joy at having kicked her out. He felt as if he was the one who was dumped.
Xie Xiaocui looked at Su Li's back as he left with his luggage. She was unable to come back to her senses for a long time, and the look in her eyes was extremely complicated.
As Su Li walked out of the Huang family, he saw Aunt Hu and Aunt Pang looking at him furtively.
"Xiao Su, here!" Aunt Hu called Su Li softly and waved her hand so that Su Li could see her.
Su Li followed their example and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing? Any gossip?"
Auntie Fatty slapped her in anger: "It's already this hour, and you're still thinking about gossip? Are you really being kicked out?"
Su Li raised her eyebrows and said unhappily, "Who said that? I just kicked Huang Weiye out. I don't want to have anything to do with people of such low character!"
"Who said that? The whole village is saying that. It seems like your sister-in-law said that when she went to the river to wash clothes!" Aunt Hu glared at Su Li, "Are you going back to your parents' home or somewhere else?"
Su Li sighed and said in a self-deprecating tone, "Why go back to my parents' home? I'm a divorced woman, and if I go back to my parents' home, won't people spit at me to death?"
The original owner's younger brother is only three years younger than the original owner. He is 22 years old this year, married, and has two children.
Su Xiaodi's wife is not a good person. In this day and age, divorce has a bad reputation. If she goes back to her parents' home, Su Xiaodi will probably get divorced too.
The original owner didn't even think about going back to her parents' home after the divorce, so she won't go and cause trouble for them!
Aunt Hu said with an expression that said, "We knew you wouldn't go back to your parents' home. My old house has been vacant and no one lives there. It's a bit run-down, but it can be lived in after some cleaning. If you haven't found a good place, you can live there!"
Su Li: It seems like I've been really lucky these past two days. Everything I wish for has come true! Whenever I feel sleepy, someone gives me a pillow!
"Great! The aunts are really nice to me. I was just worried about where to live! But it's not free for me to live in your house. I'll pay you the rent!"
It seems that loving gossip has more benefits than just being a relief!
"Why rent? The house has been vacant for years. It's useless to leave it there. You can live in it and it will add some popularity!"
Aunt Hu's voice rose two degrees. She didn't want money, she really wanted to help Su Li. In this day and age, if a woman reaches the point of divorce, she is really in great trouble!
Su Li was determined not to live there for free. Aunt Hu was kind-hearted, and he couldn't make things difficult for her. She had a big family to support!
After some final arguing, Su Li paid a year's rent. Aunt Hu felt bad about it and brought her son and daughter-in-law to help Su Li clean up the house.
Su Li officially moved in with her few belongings.
It was already the summer of 1976. In another year, the college entrance examination would be resumed, and she would be able to travel around after the reform and opening up.
——
That day, the captain received a notice from the police that Wang Mazi died due to untimely medical treatment and Zhang Guizhi was sentenced to death.
When the Huang brothers and sisters heard the news, they burst into tears. Their mother had been sentenced to death and would have to eat peanuts. What would they do in the future?
In this day and age, if there is a criminal in a family, the whole family will be unable to hold their heads up, let alone if there is a murderer in their family!
The brothers and sisters suffered the greatest malice from the villagers. The daily rumors made them angry and helpless!
The Huang brothers and sisters became the avoided figures in the village. Everyone was afraid to have anything to do with them. These successive blows made the brothers and sisters less sad about their mother eating peanuts.
…
That day, Su Li came out of the state-owned restaurant after eating and drinking, and saw two people looking around and walking stealthily towards an alley.
Su Li looked at the two men. One was gentle and handsome, and the other was honest and simple. They looked like good people.
But this kind of person who sneaks around on the street is most likely a bad person.
Su Li had just finished a hearty meal and was in a good mood. He felt that as a "Three Good Citizens," he had an obligation to go and see. What if there was someone waiting for him to rescue them? (Actually, it was just too boring. Watching the fun and gossiping had become a habit!)
So she followed them quietly, and when she got closer, she heard the two of them talking about selling their jobs on the black market or something like that.
Su Li's eyes lit up when he heard this. Jobs are in such short supply these days that it's not easy to find one. If he had a job, wouldn't he have to worry about no one cooking for him?
Su Li took a few quick steps and went straight up to stop the two of them.
The two grown men were going to the black market for the first time. They were very nervous and worried all the way. Suddenly they were stopped by someone. They were so scared that they ran away.
Su Li was quick-witted and grabbed one with each hand, saying with a smile: "Don't be afraid, big brothers. I'm not a bad person. I'm just a weak woman who can't even tie a chicken. I won't hurt you!"
The two of them stared at the hands that were tightly holding them:...Let us go first.
"Big sister, is there something wrong?"
One of the men in blue calmed down and looked at Su Li with a simple smile.
Su Li nodded and said in a gentle tone: "Well, I have something to talk to you about. Haha, I just heard you guys talking about selling jobs?"
Another tall and thin man with a somewhat frail scholarly temperament looked at Su Li warily, wondering how much she had heard.
Su Li wore a white shirt today, black suit pants, and small leather shoes bought at the department store.
With this outfit and her outstanding temperament, she is definitely the most handsome person on the street.
The gentleman took a look at her and felt that she might not be a bad person after all. She did not look like she was lacking in food and clothing, so he felt a little relieved.
The gentleman's mind raced for a moment, and he smiled gently, "What did you say, sister? Did you hear something wrong?"
The honest man in blue clothes was tense all over, ready to run away at any time.
Su Li smiled kindly, "Don't worry, big brother, I'm really not a bad person! I just heard you guys say you want to sell your job, and it just so happens that I want to buy a job!"
It is not easy to go to the city from Guihua Village. If she is in the city, not only will the problem of eating be solved, but it will also be convenient for her to go to a restaurant.
Zhang Guizhi, the most despicable member of the Huang family, had already gone in to work on the sewing machine. As for Huang Weiye and Huang Zhenzhen? He could deal with them anytime he wanted. There was no need to waste his time guarding them in the village.
The two men looked at Su Li suspiciously, as if trying to determine the truthfulness of Su Li's words.
Su Li let them look at him with a sincere look on his face.
"You really want to buy a job?" the honest man asked hesitantly.
Su Li nodded and looked at them very seriously.
The gentleman looked around, pointed to a corner and said, "Let's go and talk over there."
They were standing right in the middle of the alley, attracting some attention.
Su Li was skilled and brave, so he followed the two of them to a remote corner.
"Sister, I do have a job as a worker in a machinery factory. If you really want it, I won't ask you for more than six hundred yuan!"
Su Li only needs a job now. He doesn’t care much about what type of job it is, but the price seems a bit high, right?
"Five hundred dollars. If it's five hundred, I'll take it."
This is all she has in her pocket now. If she wants more, she will have to go to the black market.
The honest man hurriedly said: "No, five hundred is too little. We are not asking for a high price. As long as the girl buys a job and goes to work, she can earn thirty-eight yuan a month. If it weren't for my brother's urgent need for money, I wouldn't sell my job!"
This is because something happened in his brother's family and his wife has no time to go to work, so how could she sell her job?
