Gu An'an looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl in a polyester dress burying her head in the arm of a woman next to her, her voice muffled, a mixture of grievance and fear.
The woman's eyes remained fixed on the list at the front, and she gently stroked the girl's head to comfort her, "Don't worry! With your father here, he will definitely find a way to help you."
Gu An'an didn't listen to what the mother and daughter said next. She had the idea, but she still had to see if there was an opportunity.
"Fang Jincheng, Gu An'an."
A crowd gathered in front of the list, and someone shouted out, and everyone knew that the list had been released.
I passed the exam!
A handsome young man jumped three feet tall with excitement; it wasn't hard to guess that he was Fang Jincheng.
Wang Xinghua felt terrible when she saw Gu An'an's name on the list.
"How is that possible? How could that bitch have passed the exam!"
Gu An'an happened to be standing behind Wang Xinghua, but she didn't intend to fight with her right now. After all, they were both cutting in line in the same place, and there was plenty of time in the future.
After leaving the crowd, the mother and daughter who had failed the exam were walking back dejectedly.
Gu An'an quickened her pace and caught up with him, saying, "Excuse me for disturbing you."
The mother and daughter stopped talking and looked at her at the same time. "May I ask what's the matter?"
The two were dressed in very fine clothes, without a single patch, which suggested that they came from well-off families.
"I am Gu An'an."
"Gu An'an? You're the Gu An'an on the list?"
The girl was very surprised. She didn't expect that not only could the other person get into the textile factory, but he was also so good-looking. Unlike her... she was useless at everything and couldn't finish anything she ate.
Now, things are really going to get tough. She's about to go to the countryside to suffer. Thinking about this, the girl's surprise turned into a bitter face.
Although her parents said they would try to find a way for her, there are very few jobs in the city nowadays. Even if there are jobs available for those who are about to retire, they are usually reserved for their own children. Who knows if they can find a suitable job before she goes to the countryside?
The girl was still fretting about her situation, but her mother, having been more experienced in life, had already figured it out. So, no wonder she asked expectantly, "Girl, did you call us for something?"
Gu An'an took a few steps closer. "It's nothing major, I just wanted to ask if you need any work."
The girl's red eyes lit up instantly. "You want to sell your job?"
There weren't many people around here, so Gu An'an nodded readily. "I just found out my family signed me up for the rural work program. I'm leaving the day after tomorrow, so this job..."
The woman's eyes held a hint of sympathy. The child had passed the exam for the job herself, but the family had signed her up to go to the countryside. Who would believe there wasn't something fishy going on here?
However, there are too many such things happening nowadays, and she has no right to say anything. Besides, all she wants to do now is find a job for her daughter, so why would she turn down such a good opportunity?
How many do you want?
Gu An'an didn't speak directly. Normal jobs usually sell for around 500 or 600, but her job is an office job with career advancement prospects, so she'll definitely have to pay more. As for how much more, that depends on the other party.
"Auntie, you can give me whatever you think is appropriate."
The ball was kicked back to her, and the woman, fearing that Gu An'an wouldn't sell if she quoted too low a price, directly quoted a high price, "eight hundred."
Gu An'an was satisfied, but didn't show it much on her face. "Okay."
Fearing that things might get complicated if they waited too long, the woman pulled Gu An'an to get the money. After getting the money, they went to the textile factory and finished everything in one afternoon.
"My name is Wang Pingping. If you have the chance to come back to visit your family, you can come and visit me."
Wang Pingping was genuinely happy, looking at Gu An'an almost like she was her benefactor, chatting with her for a while before reluctantly leaving.
After putting the money into her spatial storage, Gu An'an went to a state-run restaurant for a meal before strolling back to the machinery factory's residential compound.
The rudimentary bandage and the glaring wound naturally drew a barrage of questions from the neighbors.
"It's nothing, it's not my aunt's fault, she didn't mean it."
"Yes, yes, it has nothing to do with my cousins. They're getting old and they still have to get married. What if their reputations are ruined?"
......
After she finished applying the eye drops, the older women started chatting.
"What do you mean by that, An'an? Wang Meihua doesn't seem like that kind of person!"
"Doesn't look like it? Hah, you're blind. If you ask me..."
Gu An'an looked up at the second floor and knew that something interesting was about to happen. Her eyes gleamed with excitement.
As soon as she opened the door, everyone sitting inside turned to look at her: her scumbag father Zhang Changsheng, her aunt Wang Meihua, her eldest cousin Zhang Yanqing, and the twins Zhang Yanhong and Zhang Xiaojun, who were a year younger than the original owner of this body.
Looking at these nominal cousins and aunt, Gu An'an smiled, but there was no warmth in her smile, only sarcasm.
After the original owner's mother died, the job originally belonged to the original owner. However, the original owner was only a young age at that time. Zhang Changsheng cried because his elder brother had died young and his sister-in-law was struggling to raise three children alone. He insisted on giving the job to Wang Meihua, promising that he would find a better job when the original owner grew up, and if that didn't work, he would ask Wang Meihua to give up the job.
Zhang Changsheng was, after all, the original owner's biological father. Since he had said so, the factory couldn't say anything. Moreover, Zhang Changsheng had never remarried after his wife left and was used to putting on an act outside. Everyone felt that he was a kind and righteous person, so why would they dwell on those old, trivial matters?
Little did they know what kind of life the original owner lived at home. Zhang Changsheng was an extremely sexist person who ignored the original owner without hitting or scolding her, but was very fond of Zhang Xiaojun.
Wang Meihua was cunning; she never scolded or beat the original owner in front of outsiders, and often acted like a good aunt, giving the original owner some junk in front of outsiders to pretend to be a good person.
