"Okay, okay, if I can't stop your mouths if I have chicken, I'll go to the kitchen and have a look." Yao Erniang was very happy at the thought of having chicken.
"It smells so good~~~" Su Xiaoqiang was really surprised. I didn't expect this pheasant to be so fragrant, and there was no seasoning.
I picked up a chicken leg and was about to eat it when I saw several children looking at me eagerly. I couldn't eat it for a while, mainly because I wasn't that hungry anymore.
"Wait a minute, what can we do if we have chicken but no staple food!" Su Xiaoqiang returned to the house and took out 15 white-flour steamed buns from the system warehouse. Qin Huairu had just come here, so the matter of the white-flour steamed buns might not be hidden. In this case Just take out a few more.
The reason has been found. I went to the town to do odd jobs the day before yesterday to earn some money.
"Steamed bun!"
“It’s still white flour steamed buns!”
The eyes of the few boys were bright and they had steamed buns to eat, while the elder brother and sister-in-law felt like they had seen a ghost.
Yao Erniang's reaction was the most exaggerated. She stood up and closed the door.
Then he turned around and asked: "Su Xiaoqiang, tell me clearly where you stole this from!"
"What kind of person can I steal? Am I that kind of person?" Su Xiaoqiang was speechless.
"You are this kind of person!" Everyone nodded in unison, even five-year-old Sanya nodded in agreement with a serious look on her face.
Su Xiaoqiang had no choice but to explain: "I went to the city a few days ago to help a child from a wealthy family. They gave me 5 yuan, which I bought at a state-owned hotel."
Fortunately, no hot buns were brought out, otherwise there would be no explanation. One of the functions of this warehouse is that you can decide whether to heat it yourself, which is very convenient.
"Well, you can't eat them all, just one for each person, and eat the rest slowly." After Yao Erniang finished speaking, she left seven steamed buns and locked the other eight in the cupboard.
This meal was the best the Su family had eaten so far. It consisted of white flour steamed buns and chicken. It was divided among several people, and they were very happy to eat.
After finishing the meal and going to work, I saw a postman riding over not far away.
"Yao Erniang, I have your letter!" The deliveryman is also familiar with the job, because the Su family often receives packages, and sometimes they have to go to town to pick up big ones.
Yao Erniang took the letter and handed it to Su Daqiang. Su Daqiang also studied. After graduating from junior high school, he gritted his teeth and read it, but after so many years of not using it, he had almost forgotten it.
"Uh... I can probably understand the meaning, little brother, come and take a look."
Su Daqiang covered up his embarrassment and handed it to Su Xiaoqiang.
"This is a letter from the second sister. It says that a comrade of my brother-in-law has changed his job and has become the deputy director of a furniture factory in Sijiucheng. There is a job quota there. I asked my eldest brother if he wants to go. If so, I will call him back."
After Su Xiaoqiang finished reading, everyone looked at each other. Is this such a good thing?
…
"Youngest, please read it again, I didn't hear it clearly." Yao Erniang came to her senses and asked.
"It means that eldest brother is going to become a worker. Brother, you must take us with you. I want to be a bastard and a salted fish!" The job in the furniture factory is very promising, and there is a backstage when you go in, so you can learn a lot. Carpentry can last a lifetime.
The main reason is that I have connections. After working for a few years, I might be able to become a team leader, or director, or something like that. This is a big deal.
"Me? Become a worker??" Su Daqiang pointed to his nose and asked in disbelief.
"Brother Daqiang, you heard me right, it's really work~" Sister-in-law Lu Baolian shouted excitedly. After going to the city, she can have a good rest, take care of her health, and try to have a son!
"I was worried about this matter, so I immediately called the town and said that the sooner it is implemented, the better!" Although Yao Erniang loves her younger son, she is happy because her eldest son is doing well.
"My youngest, this job belongs to your eldest brother. I'll let your eldest brother establish a foothold in the city later and help you find one." Perhaps because she was afraid that Su Xiaoqiang would make a fuss and steal the job, Yao Erniang explained.
Su Xiaoqiang asked: "Mom, aren't we going to the city?"
"No, just let your eldest brother and his family go. How can you support so many people if your eldest brother works alone?" Yao Erniang waved her hand and said.
"If you don't go, then I won't go either. It's good to farm at home." When Su Daqiang heard that my mother wasn't going, why would he go by himself?
"Daqiang, you don't think about yourself but you have to think about a few children. And you don't know the situation in the countryside now. Seeing that this year's harvest is not much, you can't bear to let a few children starve?"
"And brother, do you want to have a son? Sister-in-law, take good care of your health before you can continue to have children!" Su Xiaoqiang also advised, although he also wanted to go to the city, because it was really boring to be in the country.
But since Su Daqiang thinks so much about his family, he can't be so selfish.
Speaking of his son, Su Daqiang hesitated for a while, but quickly adjusted his mentality, "I want a son, but I can't do it for my son without my mother!"
"Mother-in-law, let's go together. I heard that there are many odd jobs you can do in the city, such as gluing matchboxes and so on. Everything is better than in the countryside." Lu Baolian also wanted her mother-in-law to go.
To be honest, I'm a little scared to be raising a child at home alone, but my mother-in-law is a powerful character, and judging from today's situation, my brother-in-law is also a powerful boss, able to get pheasants and white-flour steamed buns.
"This..." Yao Erniang couldn't make up her mind and looked at Su Xiaoqiang.
Originally, she thought that it would be okay for her to live alone with her youngest son in the countryside, but what her eldest son said seemed to make sense.
"It's okay to go! Anyway, I won't spend a cent on my brother. Originally, I had to find a job after I graduated from junior high school. At worst, I'll just find another place."
Su Xiaoqiang's plan was to find a job in the county town, but if the whole family wanted to go to Sijiu City, they could also find jobs there.
"But there is one thing you must be careful about!"
Su Daqiang was about to refute, but when he saw that Su Xiaoqiang still had something to say, he waited for him to finish.
"Brother, you saw Qin Huairu when she came here today. This person is very disgusting. If you go to Sijiu City, you must stay away from where she lives!"
Su Daqiang glanced at his wife carefully, and then assured him righteously: "Of course! You must stay far away!"
"I've already inquired about the compound at No. 95 Nanluogu Lane. Just don't enter this compound." Su Xiaoqiang worked hard for a happy life in the future. Anyway, he couldn't live in the Qinman Courtyard.
In the evening, Su Daqiang took out the egg from the morning and handed it to Lu Baolian: "Daughter-in-law, eat it quickly. You have suffered so much these years, so take good care of it."
"Daqiang, you are so kind. I will feed you half for each person..."
The three children in the next room were speechless, and their parents were getting tired of it again.
