"Exactly, Second Aunt is right. There’s a lot of street food vendors outside our school and a bookstore opened nearby last month, much cheaper than Xinhua Bookstore. They’re all individually owned." Hu Dong said with a frown, holding his bowl.
"Alright, let’s hurry up and eat." Shen Qing picked so food for Hu Dong, signaling him to stop talking, then turned to Zhang Huilan and said, "If Big Sister-in-law dislikes doing business, then she’ll just keep crying to Mom about having no money in the future."
"Fine, fine, I was just joking with Xiao Wan. Third Sister is just being protective." Zhang Huilan was furious inside. What she said was true—it was just showing off how everyone is stronger than her family. Normally, they don’t care much about her son, but now she’s defending the newlywed daughter-in-law.
Shen Haitao, aware of his wife’s sharp tongue, pretended not to see the bickering among the won and focused on serving food to his mother.
anwhile, Shen Rong subtly tugged at Zhang Huilan’s sleeve under the table to remind her.
Only then did Zhang Huilan rember her daughter’s situation, suppressing her anger, she forced a smile and said, "Third Sister-in-law, I was just being chatty today. I’ve been worried about Rongrong lately. Xiao Wan has her own restaurant, Xiao Jie works at the newspaper, but my Rongrong still hasn’t settled down. The position in the factory is tight and hard to get, and without qualifications, it’s impossible. We’ve tried many connections both at our factory and Bo Xu’s factory, packaged many gifts, but still couldn’t get her in after half a year. I heard the Won’s Federation needs people, could Third Sister look into it and see if Rongrong could be placed there? She’s a grown-up now, staying at ho is not a solution, anything would do, at least she can make so money for the family."
Shen Haitao is quite influential in the factory; getting his girl in would be easy. Even if not at his own factory, they have so many connections, getting her into another factory would be easy too. How could it be that after half a year, they can’t find a job for her?
It’s just vanity, their family and Third Sister’s family are both in governnt jobs, and she’s envious, desperately wanting her child to be in a governnt position.
Back when Shen Boxu was looking for a job, Big Sister-in-law begged her mother-in-law to ask Xinghe to get him a governnt job.
Is a governnt job as easy to get as a factory job? Fortunately, Shen Boxu eventually disagreed and joined the cotton textile factory through his classmates.
Actually, Xinghe used larger connections, and it was almost settled, but Xinghe didn’t want to go. After all, it’s a governnt job, so Big Sister-in-law regretted it and wanted her maternal nephew to get in, but Xinghe disagreed, willing to help his own nephew find a job, but Big Sister-in-law’s maternal nephew ant nothing to him, and he knew enough about Big Sister-in-law’s maternal family; none of them were reliable.
When Zhang Huilan saw that this fell through, she blad them, saying they were insincere, dragging their feet in finding a job, making Shen Xu unable to find a good job, and she created trouble for half a month.
She had been sulking a lot over this. Today, again for Shen Rong’s job, she wouldn’t agree.
Fang Xin also knew that Third Sister wouldn’t agree to Big Sister-in-law’s request.
"Big Sister-in-law seems well-inford, we are recruiting but for grassroots positions. The street Won’s Federation solves community won’s family disputes, with a salary of only five yuan a month. When it cos to official recruitnt, I am not sure; it depends on personal performance. If Big Sister-in-law wants Rongrong to join, I can talk to the leader tomorrow."
"What? Only five yuan a month, it’s not even enough for living expenses." Grassroots jobs are essentially external hires and not official governnt staff; getting officially hired is a long shot. "Doesn’t the office recruit?"
"No, we’re full. Just a few days ago, our leader’s relative tried to get in and couldn’t, I definitely don’t have that capability."
Zhang Huilan’s hope was deflated at once, but still looked at Second Sister-in-law unwillingly.
