"So the four of you have another chance to come out, huh?" Wang Zining was so envious.
"Uncle, please stay and come with us."
"No way! I've always stayed away from Daniel, why would I stay and suffer with you guys?"
"Uncle, I really envy you," Zhang Ruifeng complimented Wang Zining.
"Yes, that's what I think too. You all work so hard, what's the point of having fun in life?"
"Uncle, what are your plans for the future?" Zhang Zhenye asked with great curiosity.
"Boss, your life is so boring. I just want to live like this forever. You should enjoy life to the fullest."
"Uncle, I admire you so much." Zhang Ruifeng's eyes were practically sparkling.
Zhang Zhenye declined to comment on Wang Zining's attitude towards life, saying it was a personal choice and he would never have such thoughts. He had known from a young age which path he wanted to take in life.
The remaining three brothers were not fooled by Wang Zining. They knew they were not qualified to be like Wang Zining.
A couldn't see their expressions from behind, but that's a good thing; let's see how they behave in the future.
Meanwhile, the local government at the foot of the mountain recruited four middle-aged men in their forties. The village chief explained that they were all exceptionally skilled with their hands.
"Comrade Fang, they are the ones in charge of the village's seeders and harvesters. It might not be fair of us to go and learn their skills. But if they really want to stay after they've learned, we have no objection. Of course, it would be even better if they came back, because the village's machines also need maintenance."
“Village chief, I understand. Whether it’s them or the young men who don’t want to stay, I won’t be dissatisfied.”
"Thank you so much, thank you so much, this is really a great opportunity." This is the best opportunity for the village.
At this time, the twenty-three people who had previously signed up were also brought over by their families. Each person had large and small bags, because it was too cold now, and they had to bring bedding and clothes.
Fang Zhi explained to them that repairing cars was a very dirty job, full of oil, so everyone should bring old clothes.
It still includes a washbasin, a thermos, and everyday toiletries. Of course, a lunchbox is also essential.
"Everyone, get on the bus. We'll set off once everyone's here," Fang Zhi said, before the village chief accompanied him to see Zhang Hongmei.
"Madam, the recruitment is over. There are a total of twenty-seven people."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"Madam, it's my duty." Fang Zhi then gave a brief report on the arrangements made here.
Ten minutes later, Fang Zhi, unable to refuse any longer, took the snacks Hu Aifen gave him and left.
"Now there will be far fewer idle people in the village," Liu Aimin said with a smile. He couldn't stand people who were always huddled together with nothing to do.
"Well, we'll see how they perform in a month. It would be good if they could stick with it." Hu Aifen was looking quite far ahead.
"Yes, we just hope they can all hold on. It's not easy to go out like this, and we hope they can learn some skills."
Hu Aifen is preparing dinner; she's making dumplings for them today, which will be warming. The children are gone all day; it breaks her heart to see them like this.
However, this time I made dumplings with dried radish and shredded meat.
Zhang Hongmei loves this the most. "Auntie, are there many shredded radishes this year?"
"There's a lot, I'll bring it back for you, and there's some leftover vermicelli at home too."
"Hehe, I like this one."
The dumplings weren't finished being made when the children came home.
Seeing their disheveled appearance, Zhang Hongmei laughed unkindly. However, upon seeing the three people leading the way, she suddenly realized she hadn't asked for their opinions.
"Lu Yue, have Fang Zhi and the others left?"
"Not yet, the last four people haven't arrived yet."
"Go and inform Fang Zhi, wait a moment."
Lu Yue turned and left. Zhang Hongmei called Xiangzi over.
"There's an opportunity today for you to work at a logistics company in the city. You'll learn to repair cars. If you don't learn it or don't pass the test, you can work as a loader. The three of you go home and discuss it with your families."
Upon hearing that they could go to the city, the three of them hurriedly ran home.
All three of them graduated from junior high school, so their educational level is quite high. Their families were extremely anxious, thinking they had missed this opportunity, but they didn't expect them to make it.
Their families busied themselves packing their luggage, and then hurriedly went to the brigade headquarters.
Fang Zhi received the order, so he waited there. He didn't have to wait long before the three families rushed over.
After registration, the truck set off. The three families saw them off and were finally relieved, having initially thought they had missed an opportunity. They had felt somewhat dissatisfied at the time, but that dissatisfaction had now disappeared.
Zhang Hongmei sat on the kang (a heated brick bed), holding Annie's hand, listening to her sons talk about what happened on the mountain that day.
"I see. So you're not destined to hunt wild boars. You can't force things. It's not something you can achieve through hard work; it's all about fate."
All four children nodded; they understood the principle. But this was the first time they'd encountered something like this, and they couldn't help feeling disappointed.
"You guys are all like this, you get whatever you want. But have you ever thought about it? This isn't something you earned on your own. As you grow older, you'll gradually come into contact with these things, and your needs will increase. So in the future, you'll have to rely on your own efforts to earn them."
You are not omnipotent, and of course there will be many things you cannot do or achieve your ideals.
Therefore, you must learn to face things with a smile.
All five children nodded; they understood their mother's meaning. Only Wang Zining wore a broad smile. He truly hadn't considered striving for anything himself—perhaps that was just Zhao Tiancheng's gene.
Zhang Hongmei shook her head. She really needed to have a good talk with Aunt Wang about this. Was this kind of education really good?
Liu Aimin called them from outside, saying they would start killing the chicken immediately. They were naturally willing, so except for Annie, they all ran to the yard.
"Mom, my brothers are too persistent."
"It's alright, your godfather will temper their temper. How can he possibly let them have their way in everything? Life is bound to have setbacks."
Anne laughed unkindly; she could already imagine her brothers' future lives.
"Mom, surely Godfather won't show any mercy?"
"Hehe, I don't think he will, but he probably won't hold back."
"Hehe, it's really hard to imagine how someone as serious as my godfather could trick the four of them."
"Hehe, your godfather is ruthless. They will definitely not get anything good; there's no way they can get away with it easily."
"Sigh! I am too far away, otherwise I would really like to see how they suffer."
"Don't worry, Mom will call and tell you."
