When the eldest brother of the Jiang family learned that his brothers had moved away, he looked at his father in shock, and then at his mother.
"Dad, the second son's father has sold his job, so our trip here is in vain."
After hearing what Shen Cungeng said, the Jiang family looked at each other. They didn't expect that they were still a step too late. They wondered if they had come a few days earlier, would their family still be there.
Old Mrs. Jiang was so angry that her teeth were itching. They had been sentenced to this job for a long time, but she didn't expect that they would sell it secretly. However, she still didn't give up.
Then he asked, "I want to ask, they sold this job to you, right? How much did you pay for it?"
When it came to money, Zhang Hong was afraid that her man would tell the truth, so she quickly spoke before him.
With a look of disgust, he said: "Hey, it's quite expensive to buy it. With this salary, we still spent two hundred yuan to buy it."
Shen Cungeng looked at his wife's face and thought to himself, this wife is also a talent! She said two hundred yuan is expensive, this is just a small amount!
When the Jiang family heard that it was only sold for 200 yuan, they were a little bit unbelievable. They had inquired about this job and knew that it would cost at least 700 or 800 yuan.
They all exclaimed in surprise: "What? Two hundred yuan."
Mrs. Jiang asked again, "What did you say? They sold it for 200 yuan?"
Zhang Hong nodded. "Yeah! This job is incredibly tiring. It's cold in the winter, hot in the summer, and I'm carrying tons of iron in the open air. I developed a herniated disc after just a few years. Now that I think about it, I kind of regret it."
"If they weren't in a hurry to sell, we wouldn't buy it."
She talked about the uselessness of this job and explained everything she could about it in order to dispel the Jiang family's obsession with this job.
She guessed that the people in the Jiang family's old house were lazy and if they heard that the work was too tiring, they might not be interested in it.
Old Mrs. Jiang listened carefully. Could her eldest son and grandson really do such a tiring job?
Boss Jiang also recalled how the second brother looked dark and thin. It seemed that the job was not as good as others said.
Old Mrs. Jiang is not very interested in work now. Her mind is full of the two hundred yuan she earned from selling her job.
The second brother's family only gave her five dollars a month, and sixty dollars a year. If she gave them these two hundred dollars, she would not be able to buy any good thing they wanted.
Seeing that they were still at home, Shen Cungeng hurried to talk to his wife.
"Hurry up and go downstairs and move the furniture. What are you still standing here for? No one will help you move. Do you think you're going to sleep on the street tonight?"
He deliberately spoke loudly, as he didn't believe that the family would stay here after hearing it.
Zhang Hong reacted, put the stool aside, and asked them to move the things they brought from the ground.
"Hey, comrades, please take your bags. We'll have nowhere to put the furniture when we move it up."
She put down the stool and helped to move the bed. The room was small, and the Jiang family members were forced to swarm around in the room.
Seeing them like this, Old Man Jiang still had some dignity left. The house belonged to someone else, and they couldn't make trouble here.
He called out, "Boss, let's go."
So the Jiang family left again with their bags full of stuff.
They still don't believe it. The Shanghai Stock Exchange is so small, where can they run to?
After everyone left, Zhang Hong said, "Old Shen! This family is not easy to deal with. I don't know how long Bai Ge and his family can live in peace."
Shen Cungeng said, "You women should keep your mouths shut and stop selling me out."
Zhang Hong smiled and said, "I don't know even if you ask me!"
It takes a long time to drive to where the Jiang family moved, and these people won’t be able to find the Jiang family’s old house.
The weather gradually got colder. Boss Jiang and his eldest son looked for his second brother's family for several days, but there was no news at all, so they gave up.
But he just didn't believe that they would not come back when it was time to pay them living expenses.
What he told them was actually true. His second brother Jiang Shuisheng really didn't send them any money back this month.
In the past, we not only had money, but also a bag of food. Now, the money is gone, and the food has not been delivered.
The place where Jiang Baige and his team moved was south of the steel plant and north of it, and it took more than two or three hours to get there by car. They were not in the same area at all. Where could we find them?
Jiang Shuisheng didn't ask his wife to send money home this month. When he was sick, his family didn't come to see him. Instead, they came to see him when he was injured and wanted his job. He was very disappointed here. His family treated him like a fool.
Now they rely on the girl for their livelihood. If they give money to her family, it means that she will have to support their entire family.
The girl was just picked up by him, so why should he be afraid of asking her to support his whole family? When he has money, he can just put the money in an envelope and send it back to her.
After this incident, he also realized that even if his family gave everything to his eldest brother's family without food or drink, they would not remember their kindness. So in the future, whether to give money to the elderly depends on his mood.
In the past, their family had to tighten their belts and go without food, but they still had to give money and food to the old family. Others treated them like fools, and no one thought well of them. Instead, they raised a group of ungrateful people.
Today, Jiang Baige took Grandma Meng and Jiang's mother to the nearby supply and marketing cooperative to buy cotton cloth. Winter is coming, and her family still has no cotton clothes, so they have to quickly prepare a few sets of cotton clothes for the winter.
It's not like the north here, where cotton-padded clothes are not thick. The cotton used to make one cotton-padded coat in the north can be used to make two, and cotton is not expensive. Jiang Baige wants her mother to help make a few and give them to the Chen family when she returns.
And there is Grandma Meng. She doesn’t have any good clothes, so I have to make her three or five new sets.
The three of them went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a lot of cotton cloth and cotton. They used up all the cloth and cotton coupons that Jiang's mother had saved at once.
Jiang Baige rested at home for a few days. She didn't know how to sew clothes or cook, and was afraid that her mother would find out something, so she went out to find Chen Yuan.
I haven't contacted him for several days and don't know how his goods are selling.
Also, it's getting colder now, so she can still take out some meat to sell.
If you take out pork, beef, mutton, etc. and sprinkle a little salt on them now, they will not go bad even if you keep them for two or three days.
Jiang Baige learned her lesson this time. She did not go directly to Shen Yuan's house, but called him first and made an appointment to meet outside.
She didn't want to travel such a long way and then not be able to get in.
When Chen Yuan came over, he smiled and narrowed his peach blossom eyes when he saw Jiang Baige.
This girl is his God of Wealth! In just a few days, he sold more than a thousand pieces. If he split the profits among several people, he would still have several hundred yuan.
Chen Yuan is a good-looking guy. He looks a bit ruffian, but if you look closely, he is quite handsome.
Jiang Baige was attracted to him because he was handsome. She didn't like him, but simply felt that he had a certain appeal to her. Maybe it was because they could talk, or maybe it was something else. What was it? She herself didn't know.
