"It's hard for me to decide. I have to see what A Lei thinks. You also know that your eldest brother has high standards and is very picky. If he doesn't like it, no matter how much we say, it will be useless." Li Erzhi's face was full of pride when he mentioned Lin Lei, because Lin Lei was not only handsome, but also found an office job in a machinery factory with his own ability.
"Mom, Jiang Shushu is really beautiful, otherwise I wouldn't introduce her to my eldest brother. He is my biological brother, how could I find him a worse one? He will definitely like her. Jiang Shushu's family is from the countryside. As long as she marries into our family, we will have the final say on her house and job. You have to persuade my eldest brother." Lin Li tried her best to persuade her, because she didn't want the Lin family to point all their criticisms at her, otherwise, whether it was her parents' family or her in-laws' family, it would be a great loss for Lin Li.
"I'll tell A Lei to go to the state-owned restaurant and take a look for himself on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. I'll let him make his own decision then."
Li Erzhi was tempted at this moment, because she knew that if she took Lin Li's job, she would completely offend the Zhao family and would never receive any benefits from them again. Previously, Li Erzhi had been forced to give up her daughter for her youngest son. Now, with a new choice, a better one, Li Erzhi was definitely leaning towards the latter. However, Li Erzhi didn't dare to make all the decisions for Lin Lei, as Lin Lei was too opinionated and she was afraid of offending her son.
After Lin Li and her family left, Li Erzhi immediately told Lin Lei what Lin Li had said.
It seems that my elder sister doesn't want to give the job to Lin Huo, but that's normal. If it were me, I wouldn't give it to him either. It's better to rely on yourself than on others. No matter who has it, it's better to have it yourself. If you don't have the ability, your parents and brothers and sisters are nothing. Will they still step on you?
What I need most now is housing. My qualifications are low, so I won't be getting a room. Even if I'm lucky enough to get one, it'll be a small 15-25 square meter studio at best. I've lived in this tiny studio for 21 years, and I'm tired of it. I don't want to spend the rest of my life living in such a cramped space, without even my own private space. If Jiang Shushu really has a private courtyard in her name, marrying her wouldn't be a loss...
Seeing Lin Lei remain silent for a long time, Li Erzhi asked again, "Alei, what do you think? If you really marry that girl, then you and Ah Huo won't have to worry anymore."
"I'll find a chance to meet that person first." He could only believe 60% of what his elder sister said. He had better investigate first to avoid losing the big picture. Even if he wanted to take advantage of his wife, he had to find one with good conditions, otherwise he would be the one who would be laughed at when he couldn't bring her out.
Zhao Tianyu returned home, sent the children out to play, and looked at Lin Li with a cold face, "Lin Li, are you planning to give your job to Lin Huo?"
Lin Li panicked, "No, that's not true. Who told you that?"
"Who else could he have heard it from? Lin Huo." If Lin Huo hadn't let it slip himself, he wouldn't have known that the Lin family was targeting his family.
Lin Li: "..." What an idiot! Nothing has been confirmed yet, and you're talking nonsense everywhere.
"Lin Li, I'm telling you, you'd better give up this idea. I won't say much about you usually taking care of your parents' home, but your job was found by my Zhao family with great difficulty. If you dare to give your job to Lin Huo, then we'll have no future together. The educated youth going to the countryside is in full swing now. Although our children are still young, they will grow up one day. If you go to the countryside because you have no job, I will never forgive you. If you don't care about our children at all and your parents' home is all in your mind, then go back to your parents' home." He absolutely could not tolerate a wife who was not of the same mind as him.
Lin Li's face turned pale after hearing what Zhao Tianyu said, but she also became more determined in her heart that she would never give her job to her parents' family.
Lin Li quickly explained, "No, how could I possibly give up my job? My mom did ask me to give it to Lin Huo, crying and making a scene, but I refused. After that, she never mentioned it again."
"Remember this, I don't care what your family does. I absolutely cannot give up your job. This is my bottom line."
"knew."
In the blink of an eye, the second day of the Chinese New Year was over. Seeing that the old couple was particularly caring and fond of their two children, and would almost grant their every request, Chen Feng felt that the time was ripe.
So Chen Feng pulled Jiang Wenzhe back to the room, "Wenzhe, do you remember what your mother taught you? It was about telling you to brag about your cousin Yijun to your grandparents, telling them how good your cousin Yijun is to you, how much you like him, and letting him live at your grandparents' house."
Jiang Wenzhe puffed up his chest proudly, "Mom, I remember." Before coming to my grandparents' house, my mother asked me to recite it every day. I'm so smart, how could I not remember it?
"Then tell me again. I'll test you to see if you still remember it."
"Okay..." Then Jiang Wenzhe memorized it word for word.
Chen Feng happily held Jiang Wenzhe's little face in her hands, "My dear son, that's great. After this is done, Mommy will ask your grandma to make your favorite braised pork for you."
Jiang Wenzhe opened his eyes wide and asked, "Your brother won't give it to me either?"
"If you don't give it to me, it's all yours."
Jiang Wenzhe suddenly smiled happily, "Thank you, Mom. Don't worry, I will definitely behave well and let cousin Yijun live with grandpa and grandma."
"Okay, go ahead. Mom is waiting for your good news here." As long as the two old guys agree, she can go back to the provincial capital. She doesn't want to stay in this broken place for even a day. Since she came to Jiangjia Village, she hasn't had a happy day.
Jiang Wenzhe ran to Xu Hehua to ask for something to eat. Since the half pound of milk powder that Chen Feng brought back had been finished, Xu Hehua made malted milk for the two brothers.
Jiang Shushu, who was originally sitting under the tree, saw Chen Feng dragging Jiang Wenzhe into the room alone for a long time, and felt that Chen Feng, who had been quiet for two days, was going to cause trouble.
When Jiang Shushu saw Jiang Wenzhe running to find the elderly couple Xu Hehua, he stopped sitting under the tree and turned around and followed them into the main hall.
Jiang Shushu sat down on the stool and said, "Mom, make me a bowl of malted milk. I want to drink it too."
"Okay, sit down first, I'll make it right away."
Jiang Wenzhe was a little defensive: "Auntie, you're so old, and you're still drinking malted milk? Isn't that something for kids?"
"Little guy, let me tell you, no matter how old you are, everyone can drink malted milk. Not only do I drink it, but your grandparents drink it too." If he is so protective of his food at such a young age, what will happen to him in the future?
