Rebirth 1978, Wife, I won't go back to the city

"You're also an educated youth, the most educated in our village. Anyone who talks bad about you is only asking for trouble."

"Besides, you're still young, and no one would talk to you about this. Even if they did, they wouldn't dare say it to my face."

Jiang Guoli seemed to be hesitant to speak, and Li Jingshen knew that this matter would definitely not be easy to handle.

"Just say it directly."

"Well, there are two things. Now everyone in the village knows that you are capable and that you can make a name for yourself in the world."

"I want to ask if I can find some work for me in the village or somewhere else."

After hearing what Jiang Guoli said, Li Jingshen understood that if someone was not convenient to ask him for help, he would go to Jiang Guoli for help.

"I want to help not only my relatives but also the villagers to become rich, but you should also know that this cannot be rushed."

“This can only be resolved if policies change.”

"That's what I told him, and they listened, but they were still a little reluctant to admit it. It's always like that."

"When others have benefits, they just want to take advantage of them. If you don't give them anything, even if you tell them the real reason, they won't believe you."

Jiang Guoli poured another glass of wine when he said this, but his mother-in-law snatched the bottle away from him.

"All you do every night is drink. Can't you drink less?"

Jiang Guoli didn't care. He took a bite of the food and then spoke.

"Look, I'm not thinking straight now that I'm drunk, so I've brought up the matter of your wife and brought it up with my relatives again."

"They were chatting here the other day, saying that our family is now well-known in the village."

"Jiang Xue is a person who can't sit still, so I think we should find him a job in the village. I think that's the reason. The village is currently vacant for a scorekeeper."

"Do you think Jiang Xue can do this? She should be able to read and write."

"Would you like to hear the truth from me, or would you like to hear a lie from me?"

"Why are you speaking official language to me, kid? Just tell the truth."

"Okay, then I'll tell you the truth, I don't agree with this."

Li Jingshen spoke clearly and concisely, and his mother-in-law said beside him.

"This job isn't tiring, and it's not shameful either. Why don't you let me do it?"

Li Jingshen knew very well that with the policy changes, the job of scorer would soon become a thing of the past.

But if I tell my family this, they won’t believe it.

After all, everyone feels that the group will not break up.

After much thought, Li Jingshen decided to explain it to everyone from another perspective.

“There’s a saying that goes, the rafters that stick out first rot first.”

"My uncle is currently in the village committee, and you are also in the village committee."

"I'm an educated youth, a cultured person, and my family's financial situation is top-notch in the village."

"It can be said that we have been the center of attention. If Jiang Xue were to go to the village committee again at this time."

"People will poke their backs and gossip about us, don't you think?"

"I think after all, even if you don't do anything, people will still gossip about you. You can still make some money as a points collector."

The mother-in-law was very practical, but Jiang Guoli agreed with Li Jingshen's point of view.

"What do you know, old woman? Li Jingshen is currently running a pig farm. If he fails in the future, they will definitely start over and settle the score together."

"That's right. I think we should stop here. By the way, what about Li Er's situation?"

Li Jingshen didn't expect that his father-in-law never went out all day, but was well-informed about everything.

"That was even simpler. My uncle came to me and asked me to be his matchmaker, so I went."

"It's not a big problem. Anyway, it's already been settled. It just depends on whether Li Ernu works hard enough."

"Even if you help someone like this, he might not be grateful. You should be more cautious in the future."

"And if you don't manage it well, the dirty water will be yours in the end."

"I know what you're saying, but I think Li Er is also an ambitious person. If he's trained well, maybe he can become my right-hand man."

Jiang Guoli expressed his admiration for Li Jingshen's vision, but he was a little bit dissatisfied.

"This is hard to talk about. Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's eat."

After finishing the business, Li Jingshen didn't do anything else. After all, his wife was still waiting for him to eat at home.

So he stood up and said goodbye.

When we got home, Jiang Xue hadn't eaten yet. There was wine and wine glasses on the table.

"Since you haven't come back for so long, I know my dad is taking you out for a drink."

"They've stewed fish over there too, and if they insist on me bringing back a few, I won't do such a stupid thing."

Li Jingshen smiled and joked with Jiang Xue.

While eating and chatting, Li Jingshen told him about his family affairs.

"Actually, I'd like to be the scorekeeper, but what you said makes sense."

"We can't be too prominent, it's better to be more restrained."

"Yeah, that's what I thought too. Let's just leave it that way for now."

Jiang Xue didn't let Li Jingshen drink anymore, but even so, Li Jingshen still felt a little dizzy.

He had no choice but to give up working overtime, which gave Jiang Xue an opportunity to take advantage of him.

There is no choice but to accompany my wife in her plan to have a baby.

After getting up the next day, Li Jingshen decided to take a walk around the village to relax.

At the same time, I also took a look at the situation at the pig farm, exercised a little, and then came back to work.

"Depth of Field, when did you come back? Why haven't I seen you these two days?"

"Uncle San, I've been back for a few days. I've been busy these past two days and haven't been out much."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Go out more often when you have time. Young people shouldn't stay at home all day."

"I see."

Early in the morning, my third uncle carried a basket and picked up pig and cow manure.

However, there were not many people on the street, as it was time to make breakfast.

Smoke was coming out of every chimney. Li Jingshen walked around the pigpen construction site and didn't find any problems.

I just got home and had breakfast, and translated for more than an hour.

The loudspeaker in the yard began to shout loudly.

"All village cadres and educated youth, please come to the brigade for a meeting immediately. Please come to the brigade for a meeting immediately."

Zhang Zhenming honked the horn himself, which meant that the matter was a bit urgent.

But Li Jingshen still had a little bit of translation to finish, so he decided to finish it first.

Less than two minutes later, Zhang Zhenming shouted again on the loudspeaker.

"Depth of field, the team is calling you for a meeting. I think you should go quickly. Maybe there's something urgent."

"Okay, I see."

Seeing that the work could not be done, Li Jingshen could only close the book, feeling sad that it was not easy to do something quietly in the village.

He put on his clothes and rushed to the village committee.

Li Jingshen looked around and found that apart from those at the pig farm, he was the only one who arrived late.

Zhang Zhenming waved his hand and asked Li Jingshen to sit down.

"We were called here because the commune issued a notice about two things. The first one is about collective labor."

"Secretary, we have to go to work together again. We didn't do it until the autumn harvest in previous years. What's going on this time? Are we digging a river or building a road?"

Everyone is very enthusiastic about working in groups, after all, the food on the construction site is better.

Moreover, the work points recorded on the construction site are also higher, but everyone is a little surprised.

Why in advance?
