Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win

Shen Jingming shook his head. "The commune's educational resources are insufficient. Very few people can even go to high school. Although a junior high school diploma isn't considered high, whether or not one can become a teacher depends not only on academic qualifications but also on one's own abilities."

"Whether you've graduated from junior high school or high school, as long as you can pass the commune primary school's recruitment exam, the position will be yours."

He can still guarantee this.

Xu Manyue thought for a moment. Although most people were almost starving to death and had no food to eat.

But there are always rich people and poor people, and there are also some people who pin their hopes on their children, hoping that they can turn their lives around by studying.

Therefore, there are still some children attending the commune's primary school, and the school continues to operate.

This is a formal position and it is close to home. I can ride my bike back home quickly every day.

The salary is two yuan higher than that of temporary workers in the supply and marketing cooperative.

This opportunity is rare and she doesn't want to miss it.

"I want to take the entrance exam for the commune primary school."

Shen Jingming was stunned for a moment. He thought she would choose to work as a temporary worker in the supply and marketing cooperative.

But it’s also okay to be a teacher in the commune’s primary school. At least it’s a formal job, close to home, no need to rent a house, and the salary is a few dollars higher.

"This recruitment exam will be held in about ten days. As for the exam materials, it will probably take another two days."

He had a childhood friend who is now a teacher in the commune primary school. He should have information and stuff.

Xu Manyue was a little surprised. She didn't expect that there were review materials.

Generally speaking, you have to find the information for these recruitment exams by yourself. If you can't find it, you have to rely on yourself.

He really put his heart into it.

Shen Jingming rushed back overnight. There were some dark circles under his eyes and his complexion didn't look very good.

Xu Manyue pushed him and said, "Didn't you sleep all night? You should lie down on the bed and sleep first."

After everyone fell asleep.

She thought about this person again, and she didn't even sleep or eat.

So I went to the kitchen again, planning to make him something to eat.

Xu Manyue just arrived in the kitchen. Mrs. Shen was also in the kitchen. She was cooking today and cornmeal porridge was cooking on the stove.

"Third sister-in-law, Jingming rarely comes back. What if he only stays for a day or two and then passes away? Why don't you go and keep him company? While he's still here, you can have a child with him so you can have someone to rely on."

"If he ever finds someone else outside, and you bring your child to the army to make trouble, the army leaders will definitely not let him do whatever he wants."

The more Mrs. Shen spoke, the more she felt that this was the truth. She put down the pot on the stove and whispered into Xu Manyue's ear.

"Third sister-in-law, listen to me. While Jingming is still here and you have nothing to do, pester him for a child. Men can't help themselves. If one time isn't enough, try a few more times."

"I'm sure she'll get pregnant."

"Back then, when I first got married, your eldest brother never touched me. But every night I would strip naked, crawl into his quilt, stick close to him, and touch him everywhere."

"He said he hated me and disliked me, but in the end he slept with me and had two children with me."

Xu Manyue's face flushed slightly. She didn't expect that she would dare to talk about such a private matter.

"Sister-in-law, please don't say that anymore. We're not planning on having kids right now. We'll talk about it later."

Mrs. Shen got anxious when she heard this. "What? You don't plan to have children? Oh, you're stupid. Only with children can you tie a man's heart and body, especially a capable man like Jingming who often goes out."

"Look, he's full of energy right now, and you're not with him. What if he accidentally gets a woman and has a child with her? By then, you won't even have a child, so what can you use to fight against other women?"

Xu Manyue shook her head and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, this situation will not happen."

It’s not that she trusts Shen Jingming that much.

But she understood him. He was a man who was only focused on his career. He didn't care about women, except those who could bring benefits to his career.

If she had not been sensible and obedient and not held him back, Shen Jingming probably would not have married her in the first place.

But in her heart, such a man is better than most men.

At least she and her future children will benefit from everything Shen Jingming has worked hard for, and they don’t have to worry about the man having other ulterior motives.

Mrs. Shen looked Xu Manyue up and down, then rubbed her head. "Why do you become so stupid the moment Jingming comes back? You haven't even been with him for three days, and you trust him so much?"

She was devoted to her man at the beginning because she had been attracted to him since she was a child.

But at that time, there was already a woman who was more beautiful than her by her man's side.

If she hadn't overheard her mother and second sister's plot, she would have taken advantage of the situation and married into the Shen family in her second sister's place.

How could she have a chance with this man?

As for the woman named Xiaolian, it was just her bad luck that she married a violent drunkard who beat her to death.

The two people have completely different thoughts, and there are some things that are destined to be incomprehensible to each other.

So Xu Manyue changed the subject and nudged Sister Shen, "Sister, the cornmeal porridge on the stove is ready. Go and cook it. It's almost time for dinner, and Mom and the others must be hungry."

Mrs. Shen groaned and slapped her forehead. "No wonder I said I forgot something. It turns out I forgot the pot on the stove. Luckily you were here, otherwise this pot of porridge would have been ruined."

Xu Manyue saw that she was still busy in the kitchen. Shen Jingming had just fallen asleep not long ago, so she decided to wait until everyone had finished their meal before giving him some food.

While eating.

The old lady came out of the house. She looked towards Xu Manyue but didn't see anyone. She looked around but still didn't see anyone.

"Third wife, Jingming...Jingming won't leave again, right?"

Thinking of this, the old lady couldn't help but redden her eyes.

Sometimes she hardly sees her son for several years. She doesn’t know if she will be able to see him come back to see her for the last time when she passes away.
