Chapter 549: Daughter Reborn (4)
"Sister Guo, I heard that your nephew is looking for a job recently, is that right?" Cui Shichu stopped one of his colleagues when he was getting off work.
When Sister Guo saw Cui Shichu calling her, she turned around and asked, "Yeah, Xiao Cui, do you have a good job to introduce?" Although Sister Guo asked this, she was just joking and did not hold out any hope. She just thought Cui Shichu was asking casually.
Who knew Cui Shichu nodded and said, "Yes."
"Really? Then you have to explain it to me in detail. I'm so fed up with my nephew's job that I don't know how much hair I've lost. It's a pity that our factory is not recruiting this year, otherwise it would be great if he could be admitted to our factory..." Sister Guo started nagging to Cui Shichu.
"Let's find a quieter place to talk." Cui Shichu pulled Sister Guo aside and said.
The two of them sat on a bench in a nearby park.
"Sister Guo, I don't want to work in the factory recently. I wonder if your nephew is interested in my job?" Cui Shichu didn't keep her in suspense and told Sister Guo directly.
Sister Guo was immediately surprised and asked quickly, "Why do you suddenly not want to go to work? What will you do if you don't go to work? Listen to me, don't let your mind wander and lose your job, or it will be useless to regret it later."
Seeing that what she was worried about first was her future life rather than being happy that her nephew had a job, Cui Shichu had a better impression of Sister Guo and felt that it was worth selling his job to her nephew.
"Sister Guo, don't worry, I'm not acting on impulse. I've thought about this for a long time. Now that my daughter is married, I only have a son left at home. He will soon take the college entrance exam, and I won't have to worry about him after he graduates from college. I've been a widow, playing both the role of mother and father in raising them all these years, and it's really tiring. After Zhou Lizhi got married, I felt that my health was getting worse and worse. I had back pain every day after working the night shift, and sometimes I couldn't even straighten my back when I got home. I'm afraid I'll be exhausted to death one day..." Cui Shichu complained to Sister Guo dejectedly and told her about her hardships. Sure enough, Sister Guo looked at her with sympathy in her eyes.
"You have indeed worked hard over the years, but how will you live after you lose this job? It will be several years before Zhiyuan graduates from University..." asked Sister Guo.
Cui Shichu smiled and said, "I have some savings after working for so many years. Although I no longer work in the machinery factory, it doesn't mean I won't continue to make money. I have thought about it. I can set up a stall on the street to sell small items or snacks. I can always make some money."
In recent years, there are more and more vendors on the street. Many people with a keen sense of smell have sensed the change in policy and started to do business. More and more people have made a fortune, so that people with stable jobs in the city can't help but take a leave of absence to make money. Sister Guo thought Cui Shichu was the same, so her worries about her were relieved, but she still advised her:
"Then you have to think about it carefully. Don't think that just because other people make money in business, you can make money too. In fact, we have been workers for decades and have little experience or wisdom. It is not easy to change careers all of a sudden."
"I know, Sister Guo, you told me all this for my own good, but I have already made up my mind, and my body really cannot support me to continue working in the machinery factory, so you don't have to persuade me anymore." Cui Shichu said, "You should discuss with your eldest sister whether to buy my job. If not, I will ask other people."
"Yes! Of course I want it. Xiao Cui, don't look for anyone else. I'll go back and call my sister to discuss it..." Sister Guo said impatiently.
So three days later, Cui Shichu sold her job at the machinery factory to Sister Guo's nephew and became an unemployed vagrant. Countless people in the factory said that she was stupid. They thought that as a middle-aged woman, she had no self-awareness to sell her stable job to follow others and start a business. She would definitely lose all her money in the future. Everyone was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
However, Cui Shichu did not think she was confused. She was not the original owner, who could do boring work in a noisy workshop for decades. Moreover, the original owner was just an ordinary female workshop worker without any possibility of promotion. So why did she stay?
"Lizhi, did your mother sell her job?" After Chen Wenya heard from others that Cui Shichu had sold her job, he immediately found Zhou Lizhi and asked about it.
Zhou Lizhi was even more confused than him: "What? My mother sold her job? I didn't know." She had never been back home since she got married, so how would she know what Cui Shichu was doing?
"Then you should go back and ask her what she wants to do after selling her job. It was so sudden and she didn't even tell us." Chen Wenya said with some dissatisfaction.
Zhou Lizhi was a little hesitant. Before they got married, she had threatened Cui Shichu that they would cut off all ties after marriage. If she went back like that now, wouldn't she be contradicting herself?
So she pretended to be indifferent and said, "The work is hers. Whether it is sold or not is her own business. What does it have to do with us?"
Chen Wenya was different from her. She was shrewd and mercenary. She coaxed Zhou Lizhi and said, "I'm worried that if my mother-in-law loses her job, she will lose her source of income. Isn't that going to affect my brother-in-law's life in the future?"
Zhou Lizhi suddenly realized what he said: Yes, if she loses her salary, won't she rely on herself again and let her be a brother-supporting demon? !
Zhou Lizhi, who thought she had guessed Cui Shichu's sinister intentions, immediately said indignantly: "I'll go back and ask her now!"
As Cui Shichu was leisurely drinking tea at home, he was confronted by his ungrateful daughter: "You sold your job? Are you stupid? You are so stupid! What will you do after you lose your job? Don't expect me to take care of you in your old age. I tell you, it's impossible!"
Cui Shichu immediately regretted opening the door for her. If she had known that there was this ungrateful person outside the door, she would not have bothered to open the door.
Seeing that her finger was about to point at her face, Cui Shichu immediately got angry. With a cold face, she grabbed Zhou Lizhi's finger and forced it down. Then Zhou Lizhi screamed miserably.
"I hate it most when people point fingers at me." Cui Shichu said expressionlessly, "How dare you question me? I can sell my own job if I want to, what does it have to do with you? Did I ask you to provide for my old age? No, I provided for you until you reach adulthood, so you have the obligation to provide for my old age. Even if we break up, you still have to pay me the old age pension. If you don't, I will sue you!"
Cui Shichu didn't want to continue to tangle with this ungrateful person, and didn't expect her to provide for her in her old age, but then she changed her mind and thought, the original owner had worked hard to raise her, why shouldn't she provide for her old age? Cui Shichu even insisted that she pay for the old age, and couldn't let her get away with it. Even if Cui Shichu didn't use it herself, she could donate it to a charity organization.
