Transmigrating to Book 50, others hoard rice, I hoard money
Chapter 56: I'd rather pray for a pie in the sky than to expect the bad guys to have a change o
When Zhou Jiaguang heard about the delicious food and fun things, his eyes widened and he asked, "Are you really going to the provincial capital?"
"Yes, my eldest sister has to go to work and has no time to take care of Erniu and the others. I or your third sister will go to help. When I think of all the delicious food and fun things to do in the provincial capital, I want to leave as soon as possible."
Zhou Jiaguang patted his chest and said, "I can take care of children, too. Erniu and Sanniu have been playing with me these past few days without crying or making a fuss. I am no worse than you at taking care of children.
Can you go talk to my elder sister and take me with you?"
Zhou Gui: "You are too young and can't even take care of yourself. Your parents won't agree."
Zhou Jiaguang stamped his feet anxiously: "Oh, who is born knowing how to work? Can't I learn it if I learn it?"
Zhou Gui: "That won't work either, you are too prone to getting into trouble. The provincial capital is not like home, no one gives face to my parents. If you get into trouble, won't it implicate us?
You should stay at home. When you grow up or stop being naughty, we will pick you up."
Zhou Jiaguang thought, if I go a few years later, wouldn’t I get to eat a few years less delicious food?
And what about those vaudeville and movies? What if they stop performing in a few years?
That won't work!
Zhou Jiaguang quickly assured: "Second sister, I won't get into trouble again. I swear to you. Can you take me with you?"
Zhou Gui held his chin, thought for a while and said: "Since you are my brother, I will trust you once, but you are a person who knows nothing. If you want to go far away, your parents will definitely be worried.
I will first teach you the most basic housework such as wiping the table, washing dishes and sweeping the floor. Later you can tell your parents that you can do housework and that when you go to the provincial capital, you will not cause trouble for your elder sister and will help reduce her burden.
You have to use all your intelligence and try every possible way to get your parents to agree to your going to the provincial capital. As long as they don't object, I will help you pack your luggage immediately."
"no problem!"
While Zhou Gui was teaching Zhou Jiaguang how to do housework, Zhou Rong's conversation with Zhou's father and mother was entering a heated stage.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, Zhou Rong said bluntly: "I want to take Sigui or Wucai to the provincial capital to help me take care of the children. I will give them a salary of 5 yuan per month and a set of clothes every quarter."
Zhou's mother said: "Why should a family be so polite? An aunt is taking care of her nephew and is even charged money. If people tell others about this, they will probably laugh at her.
Sigui wants to meet someone, but it's not convenient for him to travel far, so let Wucai go to the provincial capital with you. Just take care of her food and accommodation, and don't worry about other things. It's not easy for you to earn money, so spend it sparingly."
Zhou Rong: "Sanniu and Sanni are still young. It will take more than one or two days to take care of them. They need to help me take care of them for at least two years. The closer they are to my sisters, the more I cannot treat them badly. Otherwise, who will be around me in the future?"
Zhou Cai said, "Sister, I don't like what you said. Can our sisterhood be measured by money?
You work alone, rent a house, and have to raise three children. I don't know how hard it is. I can't help you financially, and it would be unfair to charge you for taking care of your children.
If you have any surplus from your salary, save it and give it to Erniu and his friends to marry when they grow up."
Father Zhou: "Wu Cai is right. The older the child gets, the more expenses he will have. It will always be good for you to save more money."
Zhou Rong: "I have received your kindness, but I still insist on giving you the money. Brothers should settle accounts clearly. I can't take advantage of you just because you are my relatives.
Wucai is a grown-up girl now, and she is so pretty. She should have some money to dress herself up, so that when she is dating in the future, she will not be deceived by men because she has never seen good things. "
Zhou Cai gently bumped Zhou Rong's arm and said coquettishly, "Sister, what are you talking about? I said I won't get married."
Zhou Rong: "Even if you don't want to get married, you should dress yourself up beautifully, so that you will feel good."
Zhou Cai played with her pigtails and smiled shyly. What woman doesn’t love beauty?
It’s still the eldest sister who understands her.
Zhou's mother said, "You don't have to give that much, just a token of your appreciation will do.
We women, especially beautiful women, should not be too ostentatious. This can easily lead to people accusing us of being indecent, and it can also arouse evil thoughts from some villains.
You two sisters must keep a low profile when you are outside. It is not a good thing to be remembered by others when you are in a foreign country.
If you have nothing to do, try not to go out too much, and don't dress up too fancy. Listen to me, I won't harm you."
Zhou Rong: "We will remember what mother said, I will protect Wucai.
Taking care of two small children is very hard, not any easier than my job, and a monthly salary of 5 is not much.
My monthly salary is 50. After paying Wucai's salary and rent, there is still a lot left. You don't have to worry about me."
Zhou's mother was surprised and asked, "Your salary is so high? Did Yang Jinlin find a good job for you?"
Zhou Rong sneered: "How is that possible? I might as well pray for a pie to fall from the sky than to expect the bad guys to have a change of heart.
He found me a general worker in the slag workshop of the iron factory. The job was dirty and tiring, and I only earned 30 yuan a month. I didn’t want to work so hard, so I found a job for myself. I plan to go to the provincial capital in a few days to sell my job in the iron factory.”
Zhou's father asked: "Can the job still be sold?"
Zhou Rong: "Yes, many people in the city don't have jobs and make a living by doing odd jobs or hard labor.
The ironworks is a state-owned unit, providing food and accommodation, and giving out gifts during festivals. It is also building a school for children of local residents, so children can go to school for free in the future.
Many people want to get in, but they just don’t know how. My position is easy to sell.”
Zhou's mother pondered for a moment and asked, "How much do you plan to sell this indicator for?"
Zhou Rong: "It should sell for at least one or two million."
Upon hearing this, Zhou's mother said nothing.
Father Zhou glanced at Mother Zhou and vaguely guessed what she was thinking. She probably wanted to discuss it with him before making a decision.
"Your mother and I have agreed that you should take Wucai to the provincial capital. Is there anything else?"
Zhou Rong: "I want to take Qi Guang with me."
Father Zhou was stunned and asked in disbelief: "You want to take that troublemaker Qi Guang to the provincial capital? Aren't you afraid that he will get into trouble? You go to his house every day to apologize to him?"
Zhou Rong: "I am afraid, but he is still naughty at home. You and mom's criticism and punishment of him are never severe.
Let's change the perspective. If Qi Guang was someone else's child, would you secretly dislike him and scold his parents for not being able to discipline their children?"
Zhou's mother said with a little embarrassment: "He is so young, I can't bear it, you know, Lao Liu is gone, Qi Guang is my son in place of his brother.
Every time Qi Guang cries, I think of how Lao Liu cried when he was sick, and I feel very sad. I can't help but be more tolerant of him, and I hope he will grow up a little bit."
After hearing this, Zhou Rong sighed twice. Zhou's mother's intelligence was at the maximum level in other matters, but when it came to Zhou Jiaguang's affairs, it became negative.
If she wants to trick Zhou Jiaguang away from her, she needs to be more thoughtful...
