All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Chapter 617 618. Someone steals something

The original level is not low, but arranging a good job for his daughter and son-in-law is not an easy task.

The eldest daughter has at least studied for a few years and is somewhat educated. It is not too difficult to arrange a job for her as a train conductor. But Shao Rongqiang didn't know a word, so it took a lot of effort to find him a suitable job.

Shao Rongqiang has strong hands-on ability, and was arranged by Yue Wenxuan to join the railway system, becoming a glorious train repairman.

The young couple both have jobs and have good prospects. If there are no burdens, the life of a small family will be enviable by everyone.

Shao Rongqiang is the eldest son of the family, and he has five younger siblings. If his parents were capable, of course there would be no need for him, the eldest son, to take on the responsibility of raising his younger siblings. But his parents are the most ordinary ordinary citizens. They don't even have formal jobs and can only make ends meet by doing odd jobs. The young couple has formal jobs, so the burden of the family naturally falls on them.

If in later generations, Yue Hongyan encounters this situation, he can definitely propose a family separation. It is not the couple's responsibility to raise their younger brothers and sisters. If she wants to help, she can do so according to her ability.

But the concept of this era is different from that of later generations. On the premise that the parents are incompetent, if the eldest son is capable, he must take on this responsibility.

Because of the burden of their family, although the couple both have good jobs, their lives have been tight these years.

As a father, of course he didn't like to see his daughter suffer, but after arranging a job for his daughter and son-in-law, there wasn't much he could do.

Things were different after Yue Wenxuan traveled through time. Although he would not interfere in the affairs of the eldest son-in-law's extended family, there was no problem in providing some help in life to the eldest daughter.

Shao Rongqiang was not a good talker, and he was a little afraid of his father-in-law, Yue Wenxuan. He didn't talk much when drinking, and the two of them drank up a bottle of wine quickly.

On average, half a catty of wine per person is quite a lot. Yue Wenxuan did not continue to open the bottle, but simply said:
"That's enough wine. You can eat more fish. I don't eat much, and I haven't been hungry during this period. Don't look at me. You can eat what you should. Eat both fish. It's best if you don't leave any."

"I'm almost done. I can eat every meal on the train and there is no shortage of fuel and water in my stomach. Rongqiang, please eat more."

Yue Hongyan was worried that her husband would be embarrassed to eat more, so she kept picking up vegetables for him.

Yue Hongyan has no big ambitions and is a person who is easily satisfied. She chose Shao Rongqiang herself. No matter how difficult life was, she never complained.

Before liberation, the family situation of the two families was similar, and both families could barely make ends meet.

After liberation, her father became a cadre and arranged jobs for the couple. Shao Rongqiang's family became a burden. Many people even told her that Shao Rongqiang was not worthy of him.

Coupled with the fact that she has a mother-in-law who is very calculating and very capable, many people feel that Shao Rongqiang is not worthy of her.

She herself feels pretty good. After all, compared to the hard days she lived before liberation, even though she lacks food and drink now, she still feels very happy.

Especially two years ago, the couple was assigned their own small courtyard, and now they have moved out. Although I still have to pay money to my mother-in-law every month, I finally don’t have to make a living under her eyes, and my life is becoming more and more promising.

Now that her father's condition has finally recovered and she no longer has any worries in her heart, she is even happier.

When she went out, she didn't know that her father's condition had recovered. She originally planned to stay here for a day, but now that she knew that her father could even go fishing in Daming Lake, she was completely relieved.

She also had a lot of things to do with her own family. Since her father no longer needed her, she couldn't stay any longer.

After putting away the dishes and cleaning the house, she said to her father:

"Dad, I just came home last night. I have a lot of clothes at home. I won't accompany you. I will come to see you in two days."

"I've recovered from my illness. Don't worry anymore. Don't run back and forth all the time. You have three children at home. If you can take good care of them, I'll be relieved."

Your mother-in-law has a heavy burden and it must be difficult to eat and drink. Now I can go to the lake to fish, and I can also give you a subsidy. If it is really difficult, you can bring your children to eat at my place.

I can't give you much help, but I can still manage a few meals. "

Shao Rongqiang's parents had a large family. Whether they had enough to eat was not Yue Wenxuan's responsibility, and Yue Wenxuan couldn't control it. He was just worried that his daughter and children would be wronged.

Shao Rongqiang quickly answered: "Dad, life at my parents' side is not bad. Although they don't make much money every month, everyone has a quota and life is still manageable. You don't have to worry.

Now that we have moved out and live in another place, we just need to pay a little salary every month. We all have our own food, so there is no need to take it from there.

Hongyan can always bring something home when he has a break from work. With this little subsidy, the children can't bear the grievance, so you can rest assured. "

After understanding his daughter's situation and knowing that Shao Rongqiang's wife did not always come to visit her, Yue Wenxuan felt relieved, but he still said politely:
"It's not easy for your parents. If life is really difficult, just tell me and I can give you some subsidies. After all, we are all relatives, so you don't have to be embarrassed."

"Thank you dad for caring. If you are really in trouble, I will definitely come here for help." Shao Rongqiang is very grateful to have such a reasonable father-in-law who is always able to help.

"Don't leave empty-handed, take two fish back, stew them for the three children, and give them some nutrition."

Yue Wenxuan took the initiative to pick the two largest silver carps and forced them into his daughter's hands.

The eldest daughter didn't want to take advantage of her father, so after some refusal, she took it away under Yue Wenxuan's persuasion.

Among the several children, the original person always felt that he owed something to his eldest daughter and son.

Before liberation, Yue Wenxuan's job was very dangerous, and the burden of family life fell on his wife alone. He had no extra energy to care about the education of his children.

Because the family is too difficult, the educational level of the eldest daughter and son is not high, and they can barely graduate from elementary school.

Because both of them got married before liberation, they couldn't have any high requirements for choosing a marriage partner. The conditions of the two in-laws were worse than the other. The eldest daughter’s husband’s family is just the most ordinary philistine family in the city, and the eldest daughter-in-law is from the countryside.

In the early years after liberation, the conditions in the countryside were pretty good. After the land was divided among the local tycoons, each person could get two acres of land. Basically, they didn’t have to worry about food and drink for a year. It was not worse than life in the city. .

But this has been different in the past few years. There is no quota for agricultural household registration, and the problem of food is too serious. Although the in-laws in the countryside do not expect the eldest daughter-in-law to help, when faced with the family's survival problems, the eldest daughter-in-law must still do her best to help.

At this point, even the original person is very supportive. If he were not paralyzed in bed and unable to make decisions, he would be willing to save some food rations to provide subsidies to his in-laws in the countryside.

They, the city dwellers, are just having a hard time, but the eldest daughter-in-law’s mother-in-law’s family is facing a problem of survival. For a revolutionary like him, nothing is more important than life. If he is able, he will do his best to help.

Yesterday, he specifically asked the third child to call the eldest and second child and ask them to come over today, taking this into consideration.

He gave the eldest brother a little more subsidy, which was equivalent to helping his in-laws in the countryside in disguise. The boss is also an honest man. Even if his wife does not whisper in his ears, he will not watch the father-in-law and his family in the countryside go into despair.

Among the four married children, only the second child does not need to worry about Yue Wenxuan's family's life. Even without his help, the young couple will definitely be able to live a good life.

The second child himself is a cadre in the human resources department of the factory, and the second daughter-in-law is a salesperson in a grocery store. They both have jobs that everyone envies. The second child's father-in-law is also a well-known local chef. In addition to his monthly salary, he is often invited to cook wedding banquets. In this day and age, people like him really have no worries about food and drink.

The young couple's life was already good, and with the help of his father-in-law, there was no need for Yue Wenxuan to worry about them.

That is to say, Yue Wenxuan really does not lack this thing, otherwise, he would not let the third child call the second child.

If the things at hand are limited, Yue Wenxuan can only choose to help those who are more in need. If a little selfishness is added, filial piety can also be added to the consideration criteria. The second child obviously does not have these two conditions and can only be ranked at the bottom.

The subsidy prepared by Yue Wenxuan can also be shared by the second child. That is because the second child is lucky and has met a father who is not short of supplies, so there is no need to hinder him on this matter.

Living in bed for half a year greatly touched the original person, and Yue Wenxuan also had a different experience. With this special experience, the importance of several children in his mind was naturally different.

With this scale in mind, Yue Wenxuan has a different standard in his mind for how to treat his children. But this standard will only be revealed in some more significant matters, and some trivial matters will not be treated differently.

The second child may gradually feel these changes in Yue Wenxuan, but Yue Wenxuan will definitely not take the initiative to speak out.

After seeing off his eldest daughter and son-in-law, Yue Wenxuan originally planned to rest for a while before going fishing. As soon as he lay down, he heard loud curses coming from the corridor.

Most of the residents in this building are cadres in the food system. There are also some ordinary workers, but the number is not large, and they are either model workers or advanced elements. Otherwise, they would not be able to get such good housing at all.

The quality of the people who move in is relatively high. Normally, there are very few people who quarrel, let alone someone who stands in the corridor and yells.

Yue Wenxuan lay down for a while, and the scolding outside continued, so he decided to go out and take a look.

When he went out, the corridor was already filled with neighbors who came out to watch the fun.

The person standing on the corridor cursing people is the daughter-in-law of Lao Fang, the canteen chef. She works in a food factory. She is in her early thirties. Her personality is indeed a bit harsh, but she is a very good character and a kind person. This is the first time this has happened. occur.

Seeing Yue Wenxuan come out, Kong Qingsong came to his side and whispered: "There is a thief in our building. Xiao Fang's wife is very anxious this time. This is the third time something has been lost in her family. Really It was because I couldn't bear it anymore that I yelled."

"There has never been a thief in our building. If there is such a person around, it will be troublesome. If we don't catch this thief, I'm afraid there will be no peace in the future."

Yue Wenxuan did not expect that there was a thief in the building, and was very surprised.

Tongzilou and the courtyard are both places where many residents gather. If a thief occurs, it will be a very troublesome thing for everyone. Not only do they have to guard against their own things being stolen, but their lives will also be very inconvenient.

Kong Qingsong continued: "Lao Fang's wife already has a target of suspicion, but we haven't caught him yet, so we can't name him by name yet."

Yue Wenxuan was about to ask who the suspect was, but Lao Fang's wife, who had been yelling and swearing, finally stopped, glanced at the neighbors around her, and said apologetically:

"I'm sorry, everyone, for disturbing everyone's rest. I was really angry, so I couldn't hold back my anger and cursed loudly.

The thief in our building is nothing. This is the third time he has stolen from our house. I endured the first two times, but I didn’t expect that he is not done yet, and he is getting worse and bolder.

The first two times I stole nothing but worthless briquettes, today I dared to steal food.

Lao Fang didn’t even eat half of the big pumpkin he just brought home yesterday. The remaining half was almost a pound and a half. I just opened the cupboard to put things away, and then I realized that it was gone! "

Thinking of such a large piece of pumpkin being stolen by a thief, Old Fang's wife felt so angry that her heart ached, and she cursed again:
"The old thieves who have killed a thousand swords are actually addicted to stealing, and they are not afraid of eating too much pumpkin and killing you!"

Although Lao Fang’s wife did not criticize her by name, the directness of her words was obvious.

The people in this building are basically old neighbors who have lived there for many years. Everyone knows everything about it and it is impossible for anyone to steal anything.

That is to say, the old man Tian and his wife named Tian on the second floor are new residents who have just moved in. He, the new resident, is already suspicious. Coupled with the obvious scolding of Lao Fang’s wife, everyone guessed that Lao Fang The old villain whom Mrs. Fang scolded was probably Lao Tian.

Yue Wenxuan really didn't know much about Lao Tian, ​​who had just moved in. He didn't even know how he moved in.

Kong Qingsong whispered next to Yue Wenxuan again: "This Lao Tian has an ancestral house with a separate courtyard. Xiao Tian has many children. He couldn't live in one room, so he changed places with his father. That's how Lao Tian moved in."
