At this time, she knew that she was her aunt and he was her nephew. More than ten years ago, she had secretly called him a little bastard who had no father to teach her.
For the sake of Chen Jinzhu and Chen Yulian, he stopped.
"What's the matter?"
"That's it." Hu Li's eyes flickered and hesitantly said: "Look...your cousin has not been doing well in these years, and he has not saved any money. He is far behind his brother. What happened this summer, It was your mother who stepped in to solve the problem."
"If you want to express your gratitude, uncle has already said so at the dinner table."
Lin Yue turned around to leave, but Hu Li grabbed his arm and said, "Don't go, my aunt hasn't finished speaking yet."
"Then you should say so."
Seeing that he was a little impatient, Hu Li had no choice but to omit those contrived words and focus on the key points.
"Aunt...Aunt wants you to introduce a job to your cousin."
It could be seen that she was a little nervous. She kept rubbing her hands on the apron with the red edge and the Agricultural Bank of China logo. It looked a little strange: "I discovered that your cousin is not a business material. Your mother gave me I found a stall with a lot of traffic. Others would make money selling the same thing, but not only could he not make any money, he also lost a lot of money."
Lin Yuexin said that it’s strange that he can make money when a mother like you, who looks up from the mountain to the other side of the mountain, is blindly advising behind the scenes.
"It's not easy to go to work. Go find his brother. As far as I know, the furniture factory has always been very profitable."
"I've... been here before. Chen Ping's... job there... isn't suitable."
If I said that I was hemming and hawing just now, then this sentence can be described as "stammering". Also, the son is a piece of mud that cannot be held up against the wall, and the mother has no confidence in speaking.
"Then what kind of job do you want me to find him?" Lin Yue said expressionlessly.
He didn't need to think about it to know that the "unsuitability" here was most likely not a problem with the job, but a problem with the people. Originally, Chen Hong was an elder brother and went to work in a factory managed by his younger brother. It was very difficult to pass the mentality test. .
"The salary should be as high as possible. Don't be too tired. It's best to work in an office. And you have holidays. You can pick up and drop off the children from get off work on time. And... what is it called? Oh, by the way, there is room for promotion. That's what I said. Yes."
It was obvious that the last half of the sentence was what she said to herself.
Lin Yue wanted to laugh. The two conditions of having room for promotion and sitting in an office were already too much. If Chen Hong had an academic degree, not to mention a bachelor's degree, even a junior college, such a request would be acceptable, but he didn't say I haven’t even gone to college or high school, and I have to have a high salary, have less work to do, and be able to take care of my children. Isn’t it enough to just say that I want to join the system?
"No, I can't help."
"Can't help?" Hu Li didn't believe that Lin Yue couldn't do it.
Of course he can do it, but the question is why he should help Chen Hong. Even if you don't take into account the words and little actions that the mother and son made to slander him behind the scenes, he must be someone who can support him. Chen Hong is too lazy to do anything. If you are aggressive and like to take advantage of yourself, what kind of job can you do well?
For people like this, only if they realize their mistakes and sincerely repent, can they rely on help from others for a short time or for a lifetime? He didn't travel through the world of movies and TV shows to be a nanny and fire captain.
】
"That's right, I can't help."
After leaving these words, he turned and left.
The nervousness in Hu Li's heart was replaced by anger. She squeezed her hands tightly and stared at him with hatred, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes spread out like a pair of broomsticks.
"Don't think I don't know. You made Qiu Yingjie's daughter the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce and introduced her to Shuangwu Group. I saw her on TV two days ago when Jinli signed an agreement with foreigners. "
Chen Hong is now also a stall owner in the Commodity City. It is not surprising that Hu Li can recognize Qiu Yan, the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce.
"You are so concerned about an outsider and your own cousin doesn't care. You...are you still a human being?" Hu Li said as she took off her apron and threw it on the ground: "I'll give it back to you. Cook, make you a shitty meal!"
Lin Yue was confused by this woman's logic and didn't know what to say.
"Qiu Yan graduated from a prestigious school in the United States. She majored in economics and can speak multiple languages. Can your eldest son compare with her? The most valuable thing about a person is self-awareness."
The quarrel outside alarmed the two people at the dining table in the inner room. Perhaps they were too nervous. Chen Yulian came out with Kuaizi. Chen Jinzhu drank two ounces of wine, and his face was flushed, which brought some luster to his dark skin.
When Hu Li saw them coming out, her voice became louder: "What about Chen Ping?"
Chen Hong didn't graduate from junior high school, while Chen Ping was a little better. He graduated from junior high school, so in terms of academic qualifications, he was only half a dozen.
"How many years did Chen Ping work with Uncle Xiao before he became the deputy director of the factory? You have no idea about this? Look at Chen Hong, what have I learned from following you all these years? Do you still have the nerve to ask me to do it? He recommended a good job? What do you think? For the sake of kinship, I will give you some face. If not, you wouldn't even be able to enter this yard."
Hu Li felt insulted, pointed at him, and looked at Chen Yulian.
"Chen Yulian, you...you just don't care about him?"
"Sister-in-law, it's not like you don't know how many ways I've tried and how many times I've tried to persuade him about his marriage to Tingting. Is it useful?"
Hu Li opened her mouth, sprayed droplets from her mouth, and said loudly: "Excuses, they are all excuses."
"Hu Li, shut up."
Chen Jinzhu couldn't stand it anymore, so he took her wrist and dragged her out.
Why did he move to the city after the old lady disappeared? One is that the younger son is filial and bought a two-bedroom apartment for them in the newly built community in the city. The other is that the old lady is gone, and Lin Yue has a lot less worries. If Hu Li continues to do the same tricks as before, there will definitely be no good results. To avoid this happening, it is better to move out.
He and Chen Ping had calculated everything, but they never expected that Hu Li would quarrel with Lin Yue when they returned to their old house for a meal.
"Don't touch me."
Hu Li tried her best to push Chen Jinzhu away, but maybe because she used too much force, she couldn't stop for a moment, her feet sprained, and she fell to the ground with a cry, sweating from the pain on her temples.
Chen Jinzhu was also shaken a bit, but it was not a big problem.
"Chen Jinzhu, I want to divorce you!"
Even Chen Yulian looked dumbfounded when she heard this. Over the years of marriage, she had said cruel words so many times, but when did she take action? With the younger son's current income, plus the husband's pension, he can still enjoy a happy life without divorce. If divorced...she would drink the northwest wind.
Chen Jinzhu was afraid of attracting nefarious neighbors, so he forcibly pulled her up and dragged her outside.
"Don't embarrass me here, go home."
Hu Li stretched her neck and shouted: "Lin Yue, you rip-off bastard, just wait for me. I'm not done with you. Don't think that no one knows about the bad things you did. If you push me hard, I will expose them all to you." "
Lin Yue was speechless and didn't know what to say.
Chen Yulian sighed heavily.
"She is almost 60, and she really hasn't changed at all."
After saying this, he walked into the room and looked at the unfinished wine and unfinished dishes on the table. He didn't know what suddenly occurred to him, and his eyes were in a daze.
"Mom, what are you thinking about?"
"Ah...oh, it's nothing. It's a pity that you brought back this table of food."
She usually lives alone, so when it comes to eating, she can make do with whatever she can. For example, for breakfast, a bowl of porridge, a plate of pickled mustard, and half a salted duck egg are enough, but there are a lot of them in the refrigerator. Things - such as the cold fresh meat brought by Chen Tingting, the ham and dry goods bought by Qiaogu, the dumplings made by Qiu Yan himself, and the merchants from the small commodity city would also come to see her with their things from time to time.
She often couldn't remember what was in the refrigerator and was too lazy to do it when she thought about it. Lin Yue would help her clean the refrigerator every time she came home and throw a bunch of expired food into the garbage truck, which made her feel distressed.
Lin Yue sat down at the seat where he had just been, picked up Kuaizi, put a peanut into his mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls, then picked up the bullet cup in front of him that was all red and had gold rims, and drank up the Wuliangye inside. He said softly: "You can eat as much as you can. If you can't eat it, put it in the refrigerator. If you heat it up at night, you can still eat it for one meal."
"Then you have to be at home to finish the meal."
"Don't you just want this? As long as you don't invite Chen Tingting's parents, I will be back with you in the evening."
"Bring Yanyan here, I haven't seen her for a while and I don't know what she is busy with."
"She is doing market research in the Commodity City, and she asked me to find a foreign friend to get a copy of the sales data of hardware department stores in the European market. She is very busy anyway."
"Oh, then forget about her being busy."
"It's okay, I still have time for a meal."
"..."
ps: This is the chapter for today. Sorry, I drank too much at the class reunion last night. I was very dizzy and was out of shape.
