The person who came was none other than Hong Shunyou!
Is he going to sell his job
Is this child stupid
His job is the only thing that makes money for him now. If he sells his job, does he have to go to the fields to earn work points
How much he longs for his mother's love. It's really... It's really infuriating!
Qian Shulan tried to hold it in for a long time but couldn't hold it in any longer. Her chest heaved and rose and fell violently. With a gloomy face, she pulled him out.
Qiu Xiuhua just saw Qian Shulan was there. She was still hesitating whether to say hello to her when she saw her pulling her son out. She hurriedly shouted, "Hey, what are you doing? If you don't want to change jobs, just say so. Why are you pulling my son?"
Qian Shulan turned around and glared at her, "I have something to say to him, I won't kidnap him!"
Perhaps her eyes were too scary, Qiu Xiuhua became silent.
When they got outside the courtyard, Qian Shulan started to scold him, "Hong Shunyou, are you a fool? Without a job, how are you going to live? You are a grown man, and others don't love you, can't you love yourself? What can I say about you!"
Qian Shulan was so angry that she jumped up and down. How could there be such a useless person in the world? He was so cowardly. Although she was glad that Dana didn't marry him, she wanted to slap him twice to wake him up after seeing such an honest and hardworking young man ruining his future.
Hong Shunyou was a little surprised when he saw Qian Shulan. He didn't expect that he would meet her here. She had always disliked him and strongly opposed him being with Dana. She wished he would stay away from her. But now she was scolding him again, but he could hear her concern in her voice.
Somehow, his eyes turned red. He was adopted by his parents to his third uncle, who was always on the battlefield and his third aunt didn't care about him at all.
Not only that, she also deliberately treated him harshly. When he was three years old, he had to wash clothes, sweep the floor, and clean the house. When he was a little older, he had to buy groceries and cook, and fan and massage Third Aunt's back. He was like a little slave in Third Aunt's house.
It's not that he didn't ask for help from his uncle. But his uncle felt guilty towards his aunt because he couldn't have children due to his health problems. So he just turned a blind eye to his plight and he could only continue to endure it.
Later, his third uncle died, he got a job, and his third aunt remarried, so he thought of his biological parents.
Over the years, he had always thought that his uncle and aunt were deliberately avoiding him and not letting him have contact with them. So when his parents wanted to recognize him, he decisively returned to this home.
But he didn't expect that the fatherly and motherly love he had always been looking forward to would be so ridiculous.
He was born to be a slave of others, to serve others and to sacrifice for others.
No one has ever cared about his thoughts, no one has ever truly cared about him or liked him.
Until he met Wang Danna, he liked the sparkling look in Wang Danna's eyes when she looked at him, but her mother looked down on him and said that if Danna married him, she would suffer because he had a difficult mother.
He was forced to separate from Dana.
Later, his mother introduced him to several girls, but he could see through the nature of these girls at a glance and he didn't like them.
Some time ago, the grain store in the town could no longer distribute grain, and it was even more so in the countryside where there was no food at all.
Everyone in the family was starving, and he fainted from hunger at work.
If it weren't for the donations from his colleagues, he might have died long ago.
One day, he finished work early and returned home earlier than usual, only to find that the wooden door of his house was locked. He had a ridiculous guess in his mind.
So he climbed into the yard by stepping on the stones at the base of the wall. He should be grateful that his family was poor, because if their house had a brick wall like the ones in the city, he would not be able to climb up at all.
He tiptoed to the kitchen door, and through the crack in the door, he saw his relatives sharing sweet potatoes.
When he left in the morning, his mother told him that there was no food at home and asked him to think of a way to get some back.
He didn't even eat the porridge, he just drank a mouthful of cold water and left. So what's going on now
He lay outside the door and listened.
His eldest brother Hong Shunkang asked, "Mom, where did these sweet potatoes come from?"
His mother Qiu Xiuhua said: "I bought them from Wangjia Village. They have extra sweet potatoes, and they are 50 cents per pound."
"Fifty cents a pound? That's so expensive!"
Qiu Xiuhua: "So I bought 20 kilograms."
"What should we do after we finish eating? Do we still have enough money?"
"What's enough? We still have to build a house. If we spend all the money, when can we build a red brick and tile house?"
"So what do you say we should do?"
This was his father's voice, "I think we should just let that idiot sell his job and use the money to buy sweet potatoes."
Hong Soonyou's heart suddenly felt cold.
His face was livid, and he clenched his fist and kicked the wooden door of the kitchen open. The wooden door was so rotten that it was directly kicked to pieces. The sound startled everyone.
Seeing their extremely shocked eyes, Hong Shunyou picked up the jars and cans on the table and started smashing them, even trampling the sweet potatoes into mud under his feet.
"What are you crazy about!" His mother slapped him.
He was caught off guard and hit. His eyes were red as he glared at her, "Whose son do you say I am? I can't be your son. Speak!"
He was so angry that he just wanted to take revenge on them. He used all his strength to strangle her neck. Qiu Xiuhua rolled her eyes and angrily hit his hands.
But he increased his strength.
Hong Shichang was afraid that he was really going to strangle Qiu Xiuhua to death, so he hurriedly said, "Don't mess around! I'll tell you!"
Hong Shunkang wanted to pounce on him and hit him on the back of the head when he was not prepared, but he was kicked in the heart.
Hong Shichang was so scared that he said, "We found you. You were in the back hill. Our child died at birth, and I went to bury him at night. Who knew I would run into you."
Hong Shunyou loosened his grip and glared at them, "Hurry up and transfer my household registration out!"
Seeing that the strength in his hands had loosened, Hong Shichang immediately took the opportunity to pull Qiu Xiuhua behind him and glared at him, "Impossible! Don't even think about it!"
Hong Soonyou kicked the table angrily, "What did you say!"
Hong Shichang puffed out his chest and said, "If I hadn't saved you, you would have been taken away by the wolves in the back mountain. You want to walk away without any hesitation? You're dreaming!"
As he spoke, the family of four surrounded Hong Shunyou and started punching and kicking him.
Qiu Xiuhua recovered her spirit and wanted to take revenge. She kept beating him. "If you hadn't drunk my milk, would you be alive today? You ungrateful little beast, your uncle and aunt are so good to you, but you don't show any gratitude to them. You are an ungrateful person. Since you already know, I am not afraid of you spreading the news. We raised you, so you have to repay us. What's more, your household registration is still in our house. Unless you leave your job, don't even think about leaving."
Hong Soonyou covered his head and yelled at her, "I would never sell my job even if I die!"
Qiu Xiuhua curled her lips, "It's just right that you die, then I can sell your job openly."
Hong Shunyou was so angry that he punched him.
He was very strong, but this family of four were used to doing farm work, so four against one was not an easy task.
Hong Shunyou yelled at the whole yard, but Hong Shichang said to the onlookers, "He's having hysterics."
In this way, he was locked at home and couldn't even go to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Qiu Xiuhua excitedly ran to the supply and marketing cooperative and said she wanted to sell her job to someone else.
But the manager insisted that he had to sign in person.
If someone is gone, the Supply and Marketing Association will recruit someone else.
Qiu Xiuhua didn't know the twists and turns, so she went back home and discussed it with him, "Sell the job, half for each of you! You can use the money to transfer your household registration."
Hong Shunyou was so hungry that he felt dizzy and had no choice but to agree.
It was not until he returned to the supply and marketing cooperative that he realized it was the manager who helped him.
"You fainted from hunger several times before, and I knew your parents were not good people. But seeing that you are stubborn and blind, I guess you wouldn't listen to me. So when your mother came to ask about it, I lied and said that the job couldn't be inherited."
Hong Shunyou held the manager's hand and kept thanking him.
If the manager hadn't been smart, he might have starved to death. In the past six months, food has become more and more precious, and people are dying of starvation every day. It's normal for him to starve to death at home.
Although he didn't know where his biological parents were, he was still lucky.
He wiped away his tears and sincerely thanked Qian Shulan, "Aunt, thank you! You are so right! Dana marrying me is really the worst choice."
His self-deprecating look made Qian Shulan sensitively sense that something was wrong, "What's wrong with you?"
Hong Shunyou sobbed twice, "I just realized that I am not their biological child. They rescued me from the back mountain out of pity. In order to leave that home, I want to sell my job. Not only can I get half of the money, but I can also transfer my household registration."
Qian Shulan was stunned by the news. To be honest, she had always felt a little strange. They were all sons, so why did Qiu Xiuhua treat the eldest son as a treasure and the youngest son as grass, treating them with contempt at will
At first she just thought that her youngest son was adopted and she had no feelings for him. Now she realizes that she was too naive.
Qian Shulan didn't know how to comfort him for a moment, "What will you do if you lose your job? You have no relatives or friends, and you don't even have anyone to turn to."
Hong Shunyou shook his head. "It's okay. Our manager said I can be assigned to their production team. I can work in the fields and earn work points to support myself."
Qian Shulan saw that he had suffered so much, but he was still in high spirits. She sighed quietly, "You are such a pitiful child!"
She couldn't think of a good solution for a while. In this era, it was difficult to move without a household registration and a letter of introduction. The people in Hongjia Village would definitely support Hong Shichang and his family. As long as Hong Shichang and his wife didn't agree to transfer their household registration, Hong Shunyou would not be able to leave that family.
She thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you settle down in our production team? We have a chicken farm and a pig farm. As long as you work on time, you can support yourself."
Hearing her say this, Hong Shunyou covered his face and cried bitterly. From childhood to adulthood, there were not many people who were kind to him. He always thought that only relatives were the most reliable in this world, but he was slapped hard.
See, even people who are not related by blood can care about him. There are still good people in this world!
"Hey, you're a grown man, why are you crying?"
Qian Shulan was at a loss as to how to comfort him.
Hong Shunyou raised his head again, "Aunt, I know you are a good person, but I can't go!" He was worried that he couldn't bear to watch the girl he loved marry someone else. Besides, he didn't have the face to see her again.
Qian Shulan wanted to persuade her further, but Qiu Xiuhua came out from the yard at this time.
Seeing Hong Shunyou crying like that, she had no sympathy at all, and even snorted deliberately, "Go in quickly! Do you still want to transfer your household registration?"
Hong Shunyou didn't even bother to wipe his tears, and said to Qian Shulan, "Aunt, let's go in."
Qian Shulan hummed.
When they arrived at the main room, Qiu Xiuhua chatted about this and that for a while and then started talking about changing jobs.
"I don't want much. Working in the supply and marketing cooperative is so good. I can earn 38 yuan a month, and I can make my investment back in just one year. I want 800 yuan. That's reasonable, right?" She gestured.
Someone immediately retorted, "Are you illiterate or something? Thirty-eight yuan a month is only four hundred and fifty-six yuan a year. You want eight hundred. Can you calculate whether you can make back your investment in a year?"
Qiu Xiuhua was not angry with her, "We are just asking for a price, you can still pay it back!"
"I'll give you four hundred! No more!"
"I can only offer three hundred and fifty!"
"I can give a little more, four hundred and ten dollars."
Everyone began to look at Qian Shulan. During the conversation just now, everyone knew that she was from the Wangjia Village production team, and they all regarded her as a competitor.
Qian Shulan did not directly quote the price, "But I heard that the salespersons in the supply and marketing cooperatives need to have a junior high school education or above?"
Hearing this, the three families looked at each other, and then looked at Qiu Xiuhua and Hong Shichang in unfriendly eyes, "Is what she said true?"
Qiu Xiuhua and Hong Shichang felt a little guilty. Before they could argue, Hong Shunyou answered, "Yes! You must have a junior high school degree or above! And you must be over 15 years old."
The three families were so angry that they all glared at Qiu Xiuhua and Hong Shichang, pointed at their noses and started to curse, "You are playing tricks on us! If my child was in junior high school, would I still need to exchange with you?"
"That's right! Could it be that they are trying to extort money, so they deliberately concealed this recruitment condition?"
"I see! I almost got scammed right at my doorstep!"
They all left in a flash, and even the team leader was blamed by them.
The captain came to his senses and got angry at the two of them, "You should have said so earlier if you had this condition. You two took the money and ran away, which made it difficult for me to do my job! Aren't you harming me?"
Hong Shichang knew he was in the wrong, because his village had no harvest and everyone had to eat tree bark, so how could they afford to exchange jobs? Even if someone was interested, the price was not high, and the most he could get was only 80 yuan. In order to make more money, he went to Zhoujia Village, which was dozens of miles away from Hongjia Village, to exchange jobs. Who would have thought that he would be discovered on the spot.
Hong Shichang glared at Hong Shunyou angrily, but Hong Shunyou didn't even look at him.
Hong Shichang quickly explained to the captain, "Don't I know this?"
Seeing that he was treating him like a fool, the captain lost interest in matchmaking. He pushed all the things the two had brought to them and waved his hand to chase them away, "Hurry up, hurry up! Our relationship is over from now on. If you dare to come to my house again, I will break your legs!"
As he spoke, he shouted directly into the yard, and his family members immediately rushed in from the house to help.
Several strong young men pushed the two men out in a short while.
Although no one chased Qian Shulan and Hong Shunyou away, they tactfully followed the group out of the yard.
Four people stood outside the yard. Hong Shichang was so angry at being treated so rudely that he wanted to come over and slap Hong Shunyou in the face.
Hong Shunyou ran away quickly, "Don't try to use me to deceive people. I tell you, you can't sell this job without my signature!"
Hong Shichang was so angry that he pointed at him and trembled, "If you dare to make trouble with me again, do you believe that I will not transfer your household registration?"
Hong Shunyou was not afraid of him, and said indifferently, "If you don't want to turn it, then don't turn it! I don't need it for anything!"
Hong Shichang was choked by him. He thought so too! He was not a farmer who had changed his job to a non-farmer, so why would he be anxious
Qiu Xiuhua turned around and asked Qian Shulan tentatively, "You want to buy a job too, right? Why don't I sell it to you? Isn't Dana just a junior high school student?"
Qian Shulan acted uninterested and said, "Our Dana went to the city to work as a worker last year. She doesn't need it." Then she was about to leave.
Qiu Xiuhua grabbed her and said, "You have several children in your family. It would be nice to buy a job and leave it to the other children."
Qian Shulan lowered her head and thought for a while, "But my children all have jobs, and my youngest grandson is only eight years old. It will be seven years before he can work. If I buy a job and leave it empty, I am crazy!"
Seeing her say this, Qiu Xiuhua said tentatively, "Just buy it, I'll give you a discount!"
Qian Shulan tilted her head and asked with interest, "Oh? How cheap is it?"
Qiu Xiuhua thought for a moment and said, "Let's take the lowest price, 300 yuan! What do you think?"
Qian Shulan sneered and fiercely shook off the girl who was pulling her sleeve, "Not very good!"
Seeing that she was about to leave, Qiu Xiuhua became anxious, "How much money can you give?"
After Qian Shulan teased him, she directly quoted the base price, "One hundred yuan! Not a cent more!"
One hundred yuan? She wants to get a job that can earn more than four hundred yuan a year with one hundred yuan. She is dreaming! Qiu Xiuhua was so angry that she wanted to curse back!
Qian Shulan said lightly, "Don't tell me those empty words. There is drought everywhere now. Not to mention the grain store in this town, even the city can't distribute grain. Who can use their life-saving money to buy a job? Who knows how long this drought will last? What's more, the requirements of your job are so high. How many people can afford it?"
Most of the junior high school graduates in the town are about Zhengguo's age, thirteen or fourteen years old, and are not qualified at all.
Parents sent older children back home to work as soon as they graduated from elementary school.
As for high school students, there might not be many high school students in a production team. Zhengkang is definitely a highly educated person.
Qiu Xiuhua and Hong Shichang discussed it for a long time before finally agreeing, "Then it'll be one hundred yuan."
After Qian Shulan agreed, she was not in a hurry to pay. "The supply and marketing cooperative is closed now. Who knows if you are playing a trick on me? After all, you just deliberately concealed the working conditions! I don't believe you!"
Qiu Xiuhua held her breath and said unhappily, "Then what do you want to do?"
Qian Shulan pointed at Hong Shunyou and said, "I don't believe you, but I believe him! How about this, as long as you transfer his account, I will pay you, how about that?"
Qiu Xiuhua and Hong Shichang looked at each other, both hesitant.
Qian Shulan added fuel to the fire at the right time, "If you don't want to, forget it. I don't have to buy this job!"
Seeing that she was about to leave, Qiu Xiuhua gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, "Okay! I'll do as you say!"
So Qian Shulan followed them and got on the carriage they came in.
The carriage traveled for more than three hours before finally arriving at Hongjia Village. After watching Hong Shunyou complete the procedures for transferring his household registration, Qian Shulan paid them.
Hong Shunyou received the fifty yuan that was allocated to him, and then left home with Qian Shulan.
Qian Shulan looked back at Qiu Xiuhua, who was still unwilling to give in, and warned her, "Don't follow us! If I get hurt, I will ask the strong men in our village to come and settle the score with you. Then you won't be able to buy sweet potatoes from our village. Don't do anything stupid!"
Qiu Xiuhua was so angry that she stamped her feet.
She had never thought of giving half of the money to Hong Shunyou. She thought that she would take back Hong Shunyou's money after selling all his work.
Anyway, he was alone and no one would make decisions for him. And she was still his mother in name only, so as long as she didn't admit that he was not her biological son, no one could do anything to her.
Everything was originally planned well, but now it has been messed up by this old hag. She was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.
The author has something to say: The Hong family will soon get their comeuppance, don't worry, muah
