Now that we live in a society ruled by law, it is better to restrain ourselves. It is still okay to hit people, as long as we don't kill them or cause serious injuries.
"It's alright. We came to you today to talk to you about work. Accountant Liu in the village is planning to retire when he gets older. Are you interested in this job as an accountant?"
There are not many high school graduates in Linjia Bay, and after much thought, Village Chief Lin still thinks that Lin Qingmei is the most suitable for this job.
"I want to be an accountant? Will the people in the village agree?" No matter what, Lin Qingmei was a college graduate in her previous life, so she could still be competent as a rural accountant.
"I plan to ask the teachers at the No. 1 Middle School in the county to directly prepare a test paper. Whoever scores the highest will be the accountant. According to your previous academic performance, the accountant position will definitely belong to you."
In the past, Qingmei always had the best grades in the class in every exam, so this accounting selection exam will definitely not be difficult for her.
"I'll try my best!" The job of being an accountant in the village is actually not as easy as imagined. There is no salary, only 300 work points per month.
One work point could only be exchanged for one pound of sweet potatoes, so she really didn't want to do this job.
But now she has to have a job, or she has to work in the fields. Why is it so difficult for her to lie down?
Thinking about it this way, she really needs to fight for the accounting job. When the original owner just graduated, she also wanted to find a job in the county, but it was hard to find a job now. Factories were not hiring, and if she wanted to buy a job, she had to have someone willing to sell it.
She had no connections in the county town, so she could only return to Linjiawan to wait for opportunities. Unexpectedly, Grandma Lin fell ill right after she graduated. During these three months of confusion, she almost forgot about work.
The village chief and the women's director chatted with Lin Qingmei for a few words and then left. They were still at work, and they made the special trip because they were worried about Lin Qingmei.
After everyone left, Lin Qingmei continued to clean the room. The original owner had quite a lot of clothes, but not many of them were worth looking at.
Only three white shirts and three pairs of black trousers looked almost new; the rest of the clothes were covered with patches of various colors.
Although these clothes were patched, most of them were new, just to confuse outsiders and avoid drawing attention to their family.
The original owner also had a Plum Blossom watch, which was given to her by Grandma Lin on her fifteenth birthday.
She had always kept it in a secret compartment in the cabinet and was reluctant to take it out to wear. In the secret compartment, besides the watch, there was also a stack of money and bills, and under the money and bills was a passbook and household registration book.
Lin Qingmei counted them and found a total of 1,100 yuan and 8 cents, including only one catty of meat coupons, five catties of grain coupons, and half a catty of sugar coupons.
There were 5,000 yuan in the passbook. Not to mention the things in the secret room, the money in the house was enough for her to survive until the reform and opening up.
Lin Qingmei packed up the original owner's clothes and quilt and put them in the space. There were a lot of clothes from this generation in the space. She picked out a few sets that were more resistant to dirt, and as for those floral shirts, she didn't even look at them.
She also took out two thick and heavy cotton quilts. These quilts were the dowry quilts her mother made for her in her previous life. Unfortunately, she never got married until the day she died.
Time passed quickly in the busyness, and by the time Lin Qingmei had tidied up the utility room, it was already lunch time.
Take out the leftover chicken soup from last night from the space. I feel a little tired today, so I'll roll some noodles and make some chicken noodle soup!
In her previous life, she was a northerner and liked to eat pasta, while the original owner was a southerner and liked to eat rice and drink corn porridge.
Although the original owner was born in the fifties, she had never suffered any hardship.
During the famine, people outside were starving and skinny, but the people in Linjiawan could not eat their fill, but at least they had no problem eating 50% full.
The original owner's family had no shortage of food. Grandpa Lin was a capable man. During the famine, he brought back a lot of food and secretly sold it to people nearby.
