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

after eating.

Xu Manyue and Shen Qingqing cleaned up the dishes and returned to the room to rest.

Suddenly, there was a slight knock on the door. "Third sister-in-law, it's me. I have something to talk to you about."

Xu Manyue was a little surprised to hear the familiar voice. She stood up, walked over to open the door, and stepped aside to let the other person in. "Jianping, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Shen Jianping originally didn't plan to go in, after all, there are differences between men and women, but when he thought about the questions he wanted to ask, he hesitated for a moment and still walked in.

"Third sister-in-law, how do you think I can find a job in the county town?"

Xu Manyi was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that this person must have gone to find Meng Xiao.

She was silent for a moment. "Jianping, you have to know that when the county is recruiting workers now, they usually prioritize people with urban household registration. People like us with rural household registration don't even have the qualifications to know about the recruitment information."

"Unless you're a college student, and after graduation you're assigned to a work unit and become a city cadre, then you naturally have a city hukou."

Shen Jianping raised his hand and rubbed his hair. "But...but I only have an elementary school education. I've never been good at studying since I was a child. Now I'm eighteen years old. How can I become a college student?"

Not to mention whether his family can let him go to school, even if his family has the ability, he doesn't have the ability to go back to school and study with children who are much younger than him.

Even if we take a step back and say that he goes to school, he may not be able to get into high school or university.

"Sister-in-law, besides going to college, is there any other way? I am not afraid of hardship or fatigue. As long as you show me a way, I will definitely work hard."

"If it really doesn't work, wait for my third brother to write back in a couple of days. When you send the letter to him, please ask him if he has any solution."

Xu Manyue really didn't expect that this person would be so persistent.

In fact, she really wanted to say that even if he had a job in the city, it was only a job in their small county.

Meng Xiao is a girl from a big city like Hai City. The gap between them means that no matter how hard he tries, it will be difficult for him to have a result with her.

However, since he has this idea now, she can't just break his fantasy.

Xu Manyue thought for a moment and said, "Jianping, why don't you learn a craft or a skill? If you learn it well, maybe you can use it to become a worker in the city."

Shen Jianping's eyes lit up instantly, but soon dimmed again.

"Third sister-in-law, people like me can't learn any crafts if we want to. People usually pass them on to their sons, especially those popular crafts. No one would be willing to teach an outsider."

Even if he could endure hardship, he couldn't find a good master.

Xu Manyue thought for a moment and said, "Not necessarily. Food is the most important thing these days. Both in the city and in the countryside, there's a shortage of food. If you can offer some food, maybe someone will actually be willing to take you in."

"Even if you become an apprentice first, as long as you learn real skills, you will eventually be able to make it."

"But you have to discuss this with Mom first. If Mom agrees, maybe it will work."

Nowadays, most families have many children. No matter how capable they are, the food rations in the city are fixed and it is definitely not enough.

Shen Jianping became excited. "Yes, what our family has the most of is rabbits and sweet potatoes. These are meat and food. As long as mother agrees, this will definitely not be a problem."

"All that's left is to find a master who is willing to teach me."

Food is easy to get, but where to find a good master is indeed a problem.

Xu Manyue thought for a moment and said, "Talk to mother about this first. If mother has no problem with it, I can help you find a master."

She does have some ideas on this.

"Really? Third sister-in-law, you are so nice to me." Shen Jianping was very happy.

"Don't worry, there will be no problem with my mother."

Xu Manyue looked up at him and said, "But I want you to write a letter of guarantee. If I help you find a master, you must learn the skills from him carefully. You can't complain about being tired, and you can't give up halfway."

This is actually quite laborious, and she doesn't want her hard work to go to waste.

Shen Jianping nodded quickly. "Third sister-in-law, as long as you can help me find a good master and let me learn a skill, I'm willing to do anything. Not to mention writing a letter of guarantee, I'd even give you half of my future salary."

How could such an opportunity be obtained by someone who has no connections?

Although he is a little lazy, he is not stupid.

In this family, the only ones who can help him find a way out are his third brother and sister-in-law.

Xu Manyue smiled lightly and shook her head. "You still have to write the letter of guarantee. As long as you study hard and seriously, I won't ask for a penny of your salary in the future. As long as you live a good life, that's all that matters."

"But if you give up halfway, then all the time and energy I've invested in you will come at a price. So you must write me a letter of guarantee."

"So before you write a letter of guarantee, you must first think carefully about whether you have truly made up your mind."

Shen Jianping hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely not let you down."

Meng Xiao said that she would not consider someone who was too different from her as her partner.

If he wanted to be her partner, he had to have a job in the city and match her in academic qualifications.

Studying is still too difficult, so I'd better find a job first.

Xu Manyue nodded, walked to her desk, tore off a piece of paper, and handed him a pen. "Write. When you finish, I'll start looking for connections tomorrow to help you find a master."

"But this matter may not be decided in the short term, it will take some time, but within half a month, I will definitely help you find a suitable master to guide you."

This time, Shen Jianping did not hesitate at all and started writing the letter of guarantee. Not long after, the letter was finished.

Xu Manyue took it and took a look. When she saw the handwriting that looked like a dog's crawl, she couldn't help but say, "Jianping, you should practice your handwriting."

If she wasn't a teacher, she would probably have found it difficult to recognize what he wrote.

Shen Jianping touched the tip of his nose awkwardly. "Third sister-in-law, I will definitely practice. Please take a look at this letter of guarantee first to see if there are any problems. If there are, I will correct them right away."

Xu Manyue lowered her head and looked up again. "Alright, go back and rest first. Tomorrow you can discuss this matter with mother in private. If there is no problem on her side, I will do my best to help you find a suitable master."

"Okay, sister-in-law, you take a rest first. I'm going back."

After people leave.

She closed the door and began to think about what skills would be best for Shen Jianping to learn.

The fact that he has the idea of learning is actually a progress.

After all, before this, he was just a person who lived a life of idleness and waiting to die.
