Seeing Jiang Tiecheng's aggressive demeanor, Jiang Jinhu immediately spoke up.
"Big brother, are you never going to stop?"
Can't I just not take this job?
Don't pressure Mom. She's only doing this for the good of the family. Look at you, ever since you left home, you haven't cared about the family at all. The house is now a complete mess.
"Mom wants me to take over your job for your own good. Look at you now, do you still act like an older brother?"
"I'm not like the eldest brother, but you are. Fine, then go back home and take care of your younger siblings and your mother. Why did you bring your mother to me?"
Jiang Jincheng was speechless, his face turning red.
"Big brother, how come you've changed so much? Are you still my big brother?"
My older brother, who has always doted on me since I was little?
"I can't be cute."
"You and your mother have come to my door and are talking to me with absolutely no respect. Am I your older brother?"
Jiang Tiecheng said impatiently,
"Alright, you guys hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, I'll buy you train tickets first thing tomorrow morning so you can go back quickly. Stop embarrassing me here."
"We're not going back!"
"So what do you want to do?"
“We’re living here with you, eldest brother. This is your younger brother, your own brother. Open your eyes and look at yourself. Do you really have the heart to let your brother stay at home as an unemployed bum?”
You're siblings from the same mother, so please help your brother.
Liu Cuie started her earnest advice again; this was the only thing she could offer, as she couldn't afford to ruin her public image.
"Mom, you only need to say that twice, you don't need to say it again."
Nobody has an easy life. The second son's life is tough, but that's his own doing.
I haven't told you that I'm having a hard time. There's no need for you to say all this here.
"I really can't do anything about the work. If you don't want to leave, then so be it."
I don't have any food coupons or money to buy you grain. If you have household registration certificates and can buy rationed grain here, then you can buy it yourselves.
Jiang Tiecheng slammed the door shut and went straight to the next room.
He hadn't expected Liu Cuie and Jiang Jincheng to appear here, after all, the journey cost quite a bit.
But he knew Liu Cuie too well.
My own mother would have squeezed herself dry for her younger siblings in her past life.
Now that I know I'm living a good life, I will never let him go.
Since his mother insists on making such a fuss, then he won't be polite. The second son has come to his doorstep, and he doesn't mind making sure the second son doesn't leave alive.
After all, in his past life, the second son and his wife had sucked his blood quite a bit, and in the end, it was the second son's own son who pulled off his oxygen mask.
It is only natural that a son should repay his father's debts.
No longer is he the submissive, obedient, and self-controlled boss at home. Now, when he complains to his boss, the boss completely ignores him.
But the eldest brother is obviously living too well. Why does the eldest brother deserve to live such a good life?
Why should our children suffer there?
The third brother is now in the army, but the second brother is still unemployed, and the fifth brother is also unemployed.
Thinking about how bare her home was, she knew she couldn't continue living like that.
Why should the eldest brother be allowed to enjoy himself outside all by himself?
The next morning, Jiang Tiecheng didn't even make breakfast; he rode his bicycle straight to work at the factory.
He's put everything away in the house, unless he smashed a cabinet.
Presumably, Liu Cuie wouldn't do that; she's been playing the scheming woman her whole life. She always prefers to persuade people with reason.
There's absolutely no way we'd break ties like this right now.
Jiang Tiecheng greeted the section chief, saying he was going for a physical examination today.
I deliberately didn't eat or drink anything this morning, just in case I failed the medical exam.
Jiang Tiecheng finished his physical examination and successfully obtained the examination form, which he then submitted to the conscription office.
I had just ridden my bicycle back to the factory when I was stopped by the security officer at the factory gate.
"Deputy Section Chief Jiang, please go to your office quickly!"
Your mother is in the factory manager's office. She's crying and making a scene, insisting that your younger brother take over your job.
You don't know that the saying "one cry, two tantrums, three threats of suicide" applies here. In the factory manager's office, someone threatened to hang themselves.
The factory manager was terrified.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tiecheng knew that this was something Liu Cuie was capable of doing.
As I hurried to the office, I saw that the corridor was crowded with onlookers.
Everyone who saw Jiang Tiecheng stepped aside to make way for him, their faces showing a hint of sympathy. Who would have thought that Deputy Section Chief Jiang's own mother was such a person?
Jiang Tiecheng walked into the office and happened to hear Liu Cuie talking there.
"The factory leaders, really, our family is really struggling to make ends meet. Our eldest son is the pillar of the family."
If the eldest son comes out, how will the family manage to live?
I never wanted my eldest son to come to the countryside; I wanted him to stay at home.
It was all a series of unfortunate events back then. Now that I've brought the eldest brother back, you can let the second brother take over the eldest brother's job.
In that case, the two brothers can each return to their respective places!
My eldest son, come back with me and live a good life at home.
Factory leaders, please have pity on me. It's not easy for me, a widow raising five children. My family can't do without Jiang Tiecheng.
My second son is also reliable and capable; he will definitely be able to take over his older brother's job well.
"Factory leaders, please, we're begging you, our family is truly desperate, please have pity on us."
Jiang Jincheng shamelessly cried and begged.
"Factory Director, please, we really have no other choice. My older brother is too embarrassed to say it, but our family really can't do without him."
When my father passed away, my eldest brother promised him that he would take care of his younger brother and sister. Last night, my eldest brother also said that he wanted to go back home.
"Factory Director, please let me take my brother's place."
Just then, a loud thud was heard.
Jiang Jincheng flew out in front of everyone's eyes, smashing through the window and flying outside.
The factory manager's office was on the third floor. Jiang Jincheng fell directly from the third floor. Fortunately, there were many shrubs planted near the wall below, so he landed in the shrubs after falling.
Jiang Jincheng emerged from the bushes with a bruised and swollen face, his nose covered in blood.
"Which bastard kicked me down?"
"What are you trying to do? Are you trying to murder me for money?"
But then they saw Jiang Tiecheng's cold face through the window.
Jiang Tiecheng stared at Jiang Jincheng with a cold gaze. Jiang Jincheng trembled in fright. He had never seen his kind and honest older brother with such a look in his eyes.
The look in his eyes was like that of a wolf staring at him.
"Mom, this is wonderful! I initially thought it was unfair, but I never expected you to love me the most."
It was wrong of me to keep it from my mother.
Looking at Jiang Tiecheng's sincere expression, Liu Cuie suddenly felt flustered.
"What...what have you been hiding from me?"
"The jobs at the machinery factory are gone."
I've been sent back to the Red Flag Brigade's educated youth settlement to farm.
Jiang Tiecheng winked at the factory leaders, indicating that everyone in the factory knew he was going to join the army.
