The next day, Qian Shulan got up early in the morning to make breakfast, and she even made an extra portion.

When Jiang Yuying woke up and washed up, she saw steaming hot food on the table. When Qian Shulan saw her coming out, she quickly invited her to eat together.

Jiang Yuying felt a little embarrassed and quickly refused, "Aunt Qian, no need, I can do it myself." After all, she was just a guest, and it was not appropriate to ask someone to help her cook.

Qian Shulan smiled and pulled her hand, "You're welcome, I've done it all. Besides, I'll be staying here for ten days. I'm the one who's disturbing you."

Jiang Yuying blushed a little after hearing her words, because she had received the money.

Qian Shulan smiled and picked up some food for her. "I don't know what your taste is, so I'll cook it a little lighter. You can try it."

She was really grateful to Jiang Yuying. Although she had sent some rice yesterday, that amount was a bit too light compared to helping her find a job, and she couldn't give out too much food.

Because her previous package was so big, wouldn't it be strange if she suddenly took out a lot of food? So, she thought about making some good dishes to repay Jiang Yuying, anyway, it was just a matter of adding a pair of chopsticks.

Jiang Yuying tried the shredded potatoes with green peppers and found it tasted really good, very refreshing and delicious.

She blushed a little embarrassedly, "Aunt Qian, how about I give you the rations later. You don't have much food, I can't take advantage of you for nothing." Ever since Qian Shulan moved in, Jiang Yuying couldn't call her aunt anymore, and just called her Aunt Qian.

Qian Shulan thought about it and decided not to refuse. This girl was very principled, otherwise her values wouldn't be so positive.

Looking at the three tens on her head, Qian Shulan's eyes sparkled. This was the model of her future transformation target. If all her daughters-in-law were like Jiang Yuying, she wouldn't have to spend any effort on transformation.

After dinner, Qian Shulan followed Jiang Yuying to the Grain and Oil Bureau to register.

On the way, the two chatted as they walked.

Jiang Yuying was a little curious, "Aunt Qian, if this job is really successful, which son are you going to assign it to?"

Yesterday, when the two of them were chatting, Qian Shulan also briefly told Jiang Yuying about her family situation. Therefore, Jiang Yuying was particularly curious about which son Aunt Qian would assign the job to.

Qian Shulan answered without thinking, "To Xiaowu"

Jiang Yuying was a little confused. Didn't Aunt Qian say yesterday that her fifth son already had a job? Why did she still give him the job

Seeing that she seemed very curious, Qian Shulan explained, "My fifth son's job was arranged by his father-in-law, and he has always been bullied by his wife at home. He can't even stand up straight, and it hurts me to see him like that."

Although Qian Shulan said that she felt sorry for Wang Shouzhi, it was actually because she had noticed that Wang Shouzhi was a little abnormal. In her original memory, Wang Shouzhi was a young man who was good at acting like a spoiled child and a little mischievous, with a smile on his face all the time. But these days, the Wang Shouzhi she saw was completely different from before, he was like a completely different person. Now Wang Shouzhi was like a pool of stagnant water in a black mud puddle, without any vitality.

Not only that, his eyebrows often wrinkled unconsciously, and he sighed and groaned, and his back sometimes hunched. Although he tried his best to whitewash the situation, Qian Shulan could still see that he was living a very depressed life. If she were a psychologist, she might be able to analyze his mental illness. But she was not. With her eyesight, she could only see that Wang Shouzhi had a knot in his heart. He seemed to imagine himself as Goujian, who slept on firewood and tasted gall, and had been enduring Li Caiying's bad temper and unreasonable demands. Isn't there a saying that if you don't explode in silence, you will become perverted in silence. Qian Shulan felt that if Wang Shouzhi continued to endure, there would be probably these two outcomes.

Although Qian Shulan made such a guess, she was not sure whether her guess was correct.

But, in fact, just as she thought, Wang Shouzhi had already exploded on the day she left. Of course, she didn't know it yet.

Jiang Yuying frowned after hearing what Qian Shulan said, "Aunt Qian, if your other sons knew, they would probably quarrel with you. After all, your fifth son already has a job. They don't yet, so it's very unfair for you to do this."

Qian Shulan was absolutely stunned after hearing this. She pondered over Jiang Yuying's words carefully and found that she really hadn't thought of other people. Because she felt that Wang Shouzhi's condition was not optimistic and had reached a point where there was no time to lose, so she couldn't care about other people at all.

However, Jiang Yuying's words seemed to remind her again. If the other three sons knew about this, would they fight

The most difficult problem for parents to solve is not the lack of wealth but the inequality of wealth. Parents think they are fair, but their children may not think so.

Qian Shulan was in a dilemma: should her sons compete fairly or follow her ideas

Seeing that Aunt Qian was silent and thinking, Jiang Yuying felt a little annoyed that she had said too much. She smiled and comforted her, "Let's go sign up first."

Qian Shulan thought so too. It was hard to say whether she could be selected, so it was too early for her to worry about it now.

The Liuguan County Grain and Oil Bureau is located in the center of the county, not far from where they live now, and it only takes five minutes to walk there.

Many people came to line up early in the morning, and when they saw the two of them coming, they all looked at them with scrutiny.

When it was time to register, Qian Shulan found out that not everyone could apply. One had to be recommended by a formal employee of the Grain and Oil Bureau.

Of course, a full-time employee can only recommend one position.

Qian Shulan was very touched when she saw Jiang Yuying fill in her name in the recommendation column.

She didn't expect that Jiang Yuying would be so nice to her and would give her such a precious recommendation spot. She shook her hand with great gratitude.

Jiang Yuying smiled at her, greeted the leaders, and asked a few questions. Only then did she realize that there were more than 500 people who had signed up this time.

However, they only recruited one full-time worker and five temporary workers. This recruitment ratio was not much different from when Qian Shulan took the civil service exam.

No wonder the new leader chose this method. It turns out he didn’t want to offend anyone.

After all, everyone has a recommendation quota, and it would not be good to give it to anyone. It would be better to throw out a bait and let everyone scramble for it. Whoever has the ability will get the opportunity.

Qian Shulan followed Jiang Yuying out and thanked Jiang Yuying again and again.

Jiang Yuying blushed at her repeated thanks and looked at her watch. "Aunt Qian, I have to go to work."

Qian Shulan didn't dare to delay her work, and hurriedly said, "I'll bring you lunch at noon. Don't run home."

Jiang Yuying was startled and a little embarrassed, "How can that be possible?"

Qian Shulan interrupted her quickly, "That's it, go to work quickly."

Seeing that she insisted and she was really in a hurry, Jiang Yuying couldn't refuse and could only thank her.

Qian Shulan looked at her receding figure and smiled happily.

She didn't expect that she would be so lucky to meet such a kind person.

Thinking of Jiang Yuying's help to her, Qian Shulan felt that she should reward her well.

Thinking about the rabbit he had bought from the black market, he planned to burn it when he got home.

Before, Qian Shulan was worried that Li Caiying would deliberately find fault with her and accuse her of pursuing a capitalist and hedonistic lifestyle, so she didn't take out the rabbit. Now she thinks it's just right.

At noon, she specially made a dish of braised rabbit meat.

She filled an aluminum lunch box with rice.

Because she didn't have any extra aluminum lunch boxes, she didn't make soup.

Thinking that there should be hot water in the grain and oil store, she didn't bring it.

By the time she arrived at the North City Grain and Oil Store, Jiang Yuying's colleagues had already gone to eat.

Qian Shulan quickly handed her the cooked meal.

Jiang Yuying thanked him repeatedly before taking it.

This was the first time someone brought her food since her parents passed away.

The way she looked at Qian Shulan began to change. How great it would be if she had such a good elder.

In fact, there was a reason why Jiang Yuying gave the quota to Qian Shulan. A few days ago, two colleagues gave her gifts and wanted her recommendation quota, but Jiang Yuying didn't want to offend anyone, so she didn't give it to anyone, saying that her quota had been taken. Originally, she wanted to give it to her cousin, but her aunt and cousin were too bullying, so she would rather sell it than give it to them. Yesterday, when she saw Aunt Qian asking, she thought it would be better to give the quota to Aunt Qian, at least she had a good impression of Aunt Qian, and the other party always gave her a very kind and kind feeling.

Qian Shulan didn't know what Jiang Yuying was thinking. Seeing her take a bite of the rabbit meat, she asked hurriedly, "I saw that you can handle spicy food, so I added some chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns to the rabbit meat. How does it taste?"

After hearing her words, Jiang Yuying's eyes turned red and she nodded heavily.

As if she was afraid that Qian Shulan would see her lose her composure, Jiang Yuying began to eat with big mouthfuls.

Seeing her eating so happily, Qian Shulan was also very happy.

Sometimes, fate is so wonderful. Qian Shulan didn't expect that in this era, she would see a girl whose values are so similar to hers. It's tiring to face the best and study their brain circuits every day. Sometimes, Qian Shulan wants to send them all back to their mother's wombs to be reborn, but she can't do that, which is quite frustrating.

Now, when she saw Jiang Yuying, who looked so similar to her, she felt a sense of attachment. In fact, Jiang Yuying was even more miserable than her.

After all, she has her grandmother who loves her, but Jiang Yuying is an orphan, and her only aunt only wants to suck her blood and eat her flesh.

However, this girl can still remain optimistic and has not gone astray at all. I have to say that she is a good girl.

After she finished her meal, Qian Shulan packed up her lunch box and prepared to go home.

Jiang Yuying felt that since the other party was bringing her food, she should at least ask her to stay for a while.

Qian Shulan, however, was thinking of going to another grain and oil store to buy food as soon as possible.

In the future, she might not be able to come to this grain and oil store in the north of the city anymore, so she would have to buy it somewhere else.

Because she could only walk on her own two legs, Qian Shulan did not dare to delay and refused. "I still want to go shopping in the department store. I'll go back first."

When Jiang Yuying heard her words, she started to search her pockets.

Qian Shulan hurriedly stopped her, "No, no, I've already exchanged some food coupons for them, I don't need them anymore."

Jiang Yuying had no choice but to put the ticket back into her pocket.
