Chapter 273 Jiang Anhua's Teachings
These words made Jiang Yuzhu so angry that she almost hit someone. Why did she have such a stupid brother? He was really bringing up things that were not related to the topic.
But before she could say anything, Jiang Anhua spoke up: "Do you think she has the nerve to go on a hunger strike? Refusing to eat at home and going out to eat at restaurants, how can that be considered a hunger strike?"
Yesterday he slapped Jiang Yuzhu in anger, and her face is still swollen today. She must be too embarrassed to go out to eat, otherwise she wouldn't come to eat.
Jiang Yuzhu didn't expect that Jiang Anhua would find out that she had secretly eaten at a restaurant during her previous "hunger strike", and she felt a little embarrassed.
She originally wanted to turn around and leave, but she hadn't eaten dinner or breakfast yesterday, and she was really hungry. She couldn't treat her stomach badly no matter what.
Jiang Chaojie was unhappy when he heard this and jumped up immediately: "Fourth sister, you are going too far. I work for you every day, and you don't even take me with you when you go out to eat. Don't expect me to work for you anymore. And tomorrow it's your turn to cook. If you don't cook, then no one will eat. I will also go out to eat. Do you think you are the only one who can afford to eat out?"
Jiang Anhua also took the opportunity to teach her a lesson: "Don't do that crying, making a fuss, and threatening to commit suicide. If you have the ability, go find a job yourself. Don't think I don't know that there are job vacancies for high school graduates nowadays. You don't work hard yourself, and you want to take your anger out on your parents. You really think you are the ancestor of our family."
Looking at Jiang Anhua's serious expression, even Jiang Zhenzhu didn't dare to breathe heavily, let alone Jiang Yuzhu.
They only dared to act a little bit in front of Lu Yunxia, but they didn't dare to act recklessly in front of Jiang Anhua.
Lu Yunxia hurried out to smooth things over: "Alright, alright, thunder god won't strike people while they're eating, so don't educate your children while they're eating.
"But Yuzhu, you have to fight hard for your school's job quota. If you can't get one, go to the countryside. The farm your school is affiliated with is in the suburbs, close to home and convenient for returning home. I heard that the jobs assigned to educated youth are easy, and after two years, you'll be assigned a job and come back. Maybe you can even go to Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University!"
Jiang Yuzhu remained silent, but she was internally wondering: If school places were so easy, would she have done it? No matter how easy the farm work could be, it still wouldn't be easy. Everyone would come back tanned.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with Lu Yunxia. She tried to please her every day, saying that she was good to her, but at the critical moment, she didn't help her at all.
He even had the audacity to let me go to the countryside, so why didn't he let my elder and second sisters go too?
Jiang Anhua saw the resentment in her eyes and suppressed his anger, saying, "Your life will depend on you in the future. As your parents, we won't bother with your little cleverness. When you get a job or go to your in-laws' house, they won't indulge you like we do!"
After saying that, Jiang Anhua didn't say anything else.
If I tell a girl too much, I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it. What if she becomes so depressed that she commits suicide? I can only rely on her to figure it out slowly.
Jiang Yanqiu and her friends went to find Jiang Mingzhu. Jiang Mingzhu saw that Jiang Yanqiu was dressed shabbily, so she took her to a clothing store to buy two sets of clothes.
Yun Yinian also brought Jiang Yanqiu to buy clothes on Jiang Kaijie's orders.
Jiang Yanqiu felt embarrassed, so she brought back two sets of clothes that she often wore when doing farm work. They were all washed white and had patches on them.
But she had no choice but to buy it, so she finally picked out two sets of clothes and bought two pairs of cotton shoes.
After shopping, Jiang Mingzhu and her partner went to eat roast duck.
During the chat, Jiang Yanqiu learned that Jiang Mingzhu had given her job to her brother-in-law Liu Yusheng.
Liu Yusheng was an educated youth from the military corps on the grassland. After he was injured and retired, the educated youth office never arranged a job for him, and it was difficult for him to handle the situation at home.
He was accused of being a deserter every day. He couldn't stand the hardship in the Corps and pretended to be sick to return, so the Youth League Office refused to arrange a job for him. After a long time, he developed mental problems.
Jiang Mingzhu was pregnant with twins. It was impossible to hire a nanny in that era. It was simply a fantasy for her to take care of three children and still go to work.
Her mother-in-law has a high salary and will retire in a few years. It is not cost-effective for her to retire early now.
With no one to help take care of the child, Jiang Mingzhu simply gave her job to Liu Yusheng and focused on taking care of the child at home, waiting to find a job when the child was older.
Her mother-in-law also gave her 800 yuan privately and an additional 30 yuan subsidy every month, which sounds pretty good.
Jiang Yanqiu couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this is the process of many women becoming housewives in later generations, compromising and giving in to others step by step.
But she just said: "No matter what, a woman must have the ability to support herself. No matter how much she works at home, she will still eat for free."
Jiang Mingzhu didn't hear anything, but instead said as if to comfort Jiang Yanqiu: "Don't worry, it's okay. Your brother-in-law handed over his salary to me, so he wouldn't dare to say anything."
Jiang Yanqiu didn't know what to say. This was not the case for housewives in later generations after they resigned. When their husbands cheated on them, they had to rely on their in-laws for every penny they spent.
We can only wait and see if we can let Jiang Mingzhu take the college entrance examination. There will be plenty of opportunities in a few years anyway!
After the meal, Jiang Mingzhu packed two more roast ducks, one for Jiang Yanqiu and the others to take back, and one for herself.
This meal cost Jiang Yanqiu one and a half months' salary, plus the money for clothes, which amounted to nearly one hundred yuan.
It's really luxurious, but no matter what era it is, money can be spent.
They say that consumption is low these days, and eight yuan for a roast duck is cheap?
Jiang Mingzhu was sent back first, and Jiang Yanqiu and Yun Yinian walked back. It was only three stops, and walking was easier than taking the bus.
On the way, Yun Yinian suddenly asked, "Why don't you hate me like your other sisters?"
After she came, except for Jiang Chaojie, the brothers and sisters of the Jiang family didn't say anything, but they were obviously not welcoming her emotionally. Now Jiang Yanqiu had no expression at all.
Jiang Yanqiu felt baffled and couldn't help but ask, "Why should I hate you?"
Yun Yinian smiled bitterly and said, "I'm playing tricks with your brother. You don't think I'm scheming, do you?"
Jiang Yanqiu answered without thinking: "You and my elder brother are willing to fight and be beaten, how you two are together has nothing to do with me, I can't control it.
If my eldest brother recognizes you, then you are my sister-in-law. If my eldest brother does not recognize you, then we are just strangers. In any case, there is no conflict of interest. Why should I hate you? "
Yun Yinian didn't expect Jiang Yanqiu to answer like this. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I thought you were also an educated youth and could understand me."
Jiang Yanqiu shook her head and said, "Although we are all educated youth, we are not from the same place. I really can't empathize with you, let alone understand you."
The Northeast has a sparse population, vast land and fertile soil. Food can be found in the mountains in spring, summer and autumn. As long as you are diligent, you will not starve to death.
The Northwest is also sparsely populated and has vast land. There is farmland for half a year a year, but the soil is poor and in some places it takes ten to nine years to dry up.
There's really no comparison.
