Time Travel Article: My parents divorced at the beginning

When Gu Qingyu came back at noon, his cousin Sun was already waiting at home. Seeing this, Gu Qingyu hurried forward to greet him.

"Cousin, how long have you been waiting? Let's talk while we eat!"

"Okay!" Sun Yuan did whatever his cousin said.

After helping Li Dahua bring the dishes to the table, Sun Yuan sat down and told Gu Qingyu about the situation while eating.

"The Zhou family's youngest son, Zhou Minghui, and their eldest grandson, Zhou Jianxiang, are the same age, both 19 years old this year. However, Zhou Minghui is relatively active. Since graduating from junior high school, he's been hanging out with the county's scoundrels."

"I heard Zhou Jianxiang is a relatively stable and intelligent student. He just graduated from the county middle school last year. I just don't know why the Zhou family hasn't arranged a job for him yet."

Gu Qingyu frowned and thought for a moment before asking, "So Zhou Yuejin's first two children have settled down in the county?"

"Yes, my grandmother told me that when Zhou Yuejin was discharged from the army and assigned to the Agricultural Bureau, they immediately brought people over from their hometown to settle down."

"But their jobs aren't very good. They can barely read. They both work for the excrement removal team under the County Health Bureau."

"It was such a shabby job that even if Zhou Jianxiang wanted to stay in the city, he wouldn't take his father's job. He heard Zhou Yuejin had a job opening at the lumber mill, so he started arguing with Zhou Minghui."

Uh... Gu Qingyu looked helplessly at Sun Yuan opposite her. Is her cousin stupid? Why would he talk about such a heavy topic at the dinner table?

Perhaps it was because Gu Qingyu's gaze on him was too obvious, Sun Yuan realized belatedly what he had just said and could only look at Gu Qingyu with an innocent smile.

But what about the recruitment quota for the sawmill?

Gu Qingyu immediately thought of the wood processing factory she had passed by on her way to Mangshan Farm.

Although this company is a subsidiary of Ping'an County and is not under the management of the Agricultural Bureau, because the Agricultural Bureau is now in charge of timber felling in the Mangshan area, it can be said that it holds the other party's lifeline.

It is perfectly normal for Zhou Yuejin to have a recruitment quota from the other company.

But there are rules in the officialdom. Zhou Yuejin had already moved his two sons and their families into the city, and now he still had a recruitment quota in his hand. It was impossible for him to ask for another one.

If it was before Zhou Yuejin was injured, then as the family of a leading cadre, someone in their family must go to the countryside.

But now Zhou Yuejin is about to retire. If his family is willing to spend money to buy him another job to keep him, it is not impossible. Everyone can turn a blind eye and let it go.

When Gu Qingyu thought about this, she felt that the matter was difficult to handle. She didn't even need to do anything about it. Others could just spend their own money to solve the problem.

Seeing the worried look on his cousin's face, Sun Yuan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, Qingyu? Is this information useless?"

"Well, how should I put it? I guess there's no chance that we can't intervene in the Zhou family's affairs. They can solve it themselves by spending money and finding a job."

"Oh, if that were the case, there wouldn't have been such a big fight in their house before."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyu immediately showed a look of wanting to hear more details. Seeing this, Sun Yuan became more interested in talking and continued to explain to Gu Qingyu.

"The main reason is that Zhou Laoer's son is in his third year of junior high school this year and is also a poor student. According to the current policy, it will probably be the turn of this second grandson to go to the countryside in the second half of the year."

Having said that, Sun Yuan deliberately paused for a moment and pretended to cough a few times, which whetted the appetite of Li Dahua, who was listening intently next to him.

"Stop dawdling, little brat. Hurry up and tell me!" Li Dahua angrily slapped Sun Yuan and urged him anxiously.

"Oh, grandma, please be gentler!" Sun Yuan said coquettishly to Li Dahua.

"Hurry up and tell me, believe it or not, I will slap you again?" Li Dahua ignored her eldest grandson's cheating and just raised her hand to look at Sun Yuan threateningly.

"The key is that this second grandson has several grandchildren, and their ages are only two or three years apart. How much money does the Zhou family have to buy jobs for so many grandchildren?"

"Wow, is it so fertile?" Gu Qingyu said in surprise when he heard it.

"Well, I heard that the families of these two eldest daughters-in-law have a tradition of giving birth to twins, so each family has a pair of twins."

Well, Gu Qingyu really felt that sometimes having too many children was not necessarily a good thing. Isn’t that the case with the Zhou family?

Even if Zhou Yuejin had not gotten into trouble, their family affairs would not be easy to resolve, but this did give Gu Qingyu another opportunity.

Now that he knows what's going on, Gu Qingyu just needs to prescribe the right medicine!

It's better to do it sooner rather than later. Gu Qingyu didn't want to make things worse by doing it too late. So after get off work, she went straight to the county hospital and found Zhou Yuejin's ward.

After Gu Qingyu entered, he stated his purpose directly. Zhou Yuejin hadn't done anything yet, but Mrs. Zhou next to him heard it and hurriedly asked about it.

"Xiao Gu, do you really have a solution?"

"It costs 600 yuan to buy a job in our county, but I have five children to support in the next two years!"

Gu Qingyu almost choked to death when she heard this. She rolled her eyes silently in her heart, thinking that the other party was so bold!

Did she look like a fool? Otherwise, why would the other party ask such a question?

Fortunately, Zhou Yuejin interrupted the other person in time, "Wife, I'm hungry. Can you go see if the hospital cafeteria has food?"

After sending everyone out, Zhou Yuejin looked at Gu Qingyu and asked, "Your sister-in-law was just joking, don't take it to heart!"

"My retirement application hasn't been formally discussed at the meeting yet. If I suppress it now, how are you going to solve the problem?"

Zhou Yuejin's career was over after his injury. But with so many children and grandchildren at home, all of them were of age, and it wasn't that he had no other options. He wouldn't lower himself to ask Gu Qingyu for advice.

After all, when Gu Qingyu first came, he and Wei Zhongrong set a trap for the other party and forced him to work in logistics.

Gu Qingyu acted as if she didn't notice Zhou Yuejin's embarrassed expression and directly expressed her idea.

"It's impossible not to go to the countryside, but there is still room for maneuver in the location of going to the countryside."

"The Mangshan Farm in our county claims they won't accept local educated youth to go to the countryside, but this problem can be solved."

Zhou Yuejin had his eyes on Mangshan Farm, after all, it was under the jurisdiction of the Agricultural Bureau.

However, because the prison was full of people who had been sent to labor camps from all over the country, it did not accept local educated youth. Even if he wanted to squeeze Lin in, it would be impossible.

"Oh, do you have any ideas?" Zhou Yuejin looked at Gu Qingyu and asked. He really wanted to know what ideas this young man had.
