My scumbag husband only saves his white moonlight; I remarry the rough-and-tumble regimental command
Chapter 18: Second Brother Gets a Good Job, Eldest Brother is Stunned
"If you want to make a scene, go make a scene at the factory. I can do the same and make a scene at the cotton mill with my uncle. I've figured it out. I'm going to lose my job anyway, so I'm not going to care about my reputation anymore. Let whoever wants to laugh at me laugh!"
At this moment, Li Xiu spoke.
"Mom, I know you're biased, but you can't be this biased, can you? Let alone the temporary worker's monthly wage of eighteen yuan, even if he's a temporary worker, the factory provides free showers and haircuts. If he weren't a factory worker, wouldn't he have to pay for his own work outside?"
Moreover, the food at the machine factory is famously good and cheap. How much would a meat dish cost at a state-run restaurant outside? How much would it cost to eat in the factory canteen? Considering these benefits, you can't say a temporary job isn't even worth two hundred yuan, can you?
No one dared to respond to that.
Because what Li Xiu said was true.
Especially for boys, getting a haircut once a month is considered too little. Don't they have to pay for haircuts at salons?
There's also the option of taking a shower. Working in the factory, you can take a hot shower at least two days a week, and most importantly, it's free!
Grandpa Ye knew that now that things had come to this point, he really couldn't push the second son's family any further.
Look at what your grandson has said!
Grandpa Ye felt guilty and didn't dare to look up at Ye Hai when he thought about all the problems Ye Hai might face after losing his job.
"Alright! I've made the decision. Ye Wangjia, I specifically told you to bring money with you when you left. Now give the money to Xiaohai. As an elder, you can't be seen as bullying the younger generation."
Ye Wang's family did bring some money, not much, exactly one hundred yuan.
But even though he brought money, he never intended to pay for it himself; he was hoping the old lady would help him.
But now that the old man has singled him out, he can't really refuse to pay.
Yang Chunhua reached out to pull him away, but was glared at fiercely by Ye Wangjia.
Ye Wangjia took out a hundred yuan and put it on the table: "Xiao Hai, this is all the money I have. My family is really struggling. How about I have Fugui give you five yuan a month for a year after he starts working?"
Li Xiu sneered, "Not so great!"
after?
She dared to say that once this job fell into Ye Fugui's hands, he wouldn't get a single penny out of it.
Ye Hai didn't really intend to ask them for too much, mainly because he knew his uncle and grandparents too well; there was no way he would give them anything.
Ye Hai didn't say anything. Five yuan a month was out of the question. Now it depended on whether his grandmother was willing to take out more money to help.
Ye Hai didn't say anything, and Ye Anjia felt that was enough.
"Xiao Hai, since your uncle has said so, let's do it this way."
Ye Hai didn't say anything, looking unhappy.
Although Ye Anjia was in charge, it would all be for nothing if Ye Hai himself didn't go to the factory to complete the handover procedures.
Grandpa Ye could also see that the child was hurt by the old woman's attitude.
"Don't you still have twenty yuan on you? Give it all to Xiaohai. Xiaohai is letting his younger brother have it, we can't let Xiaohai suffer a loss!"
Grandma Ye wanted to jump up on the spot, but after being glared at by the old man, she immediately became obedient.
Reluctantly, he took out twenty yuan and it took him a long time to put it on the table.
Ye Hai realized that there was really nothing left to extract, so he could only accept it for now.
"Will you really give me five yuan every month after I become rich?"
Ye Fugui didn't speak, but Ye Wangjia nodded.
Yang Chunhua was heartbroken!
One hundred and twenty yuan was given away just like that, enough for their family to live on for several months!
"Fine, it's not that I'm heartless. I don't want the five yuan a month anymore. How about this, I know my uncle has a sewing ticket. Give it to me tomorrow, okay?"
A sewing ticket isn't worth much on the black market, but it saves Ye Fugui sixty yuan, which is definitely a good deal.
Ye Wangjia immediately agreed.
That sewing ticket was a reward from the factory when Ye Xingjia was named a model worker. Later, Grandma Ye managed to get her hands on it, and it eventually ended up in Ye Wangjia's possession.
Yang Chunhua was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were all aching!
He kept cursing and venting his anger the whole way, mainly because he felt that without the sewing machine ticket, his family wouldn't be able to buy a sewing machine.
Sewing machines are in short supply these days, and many families only buy them when they are doing something important.
To put it bluntly, it's both expensive and hard to buy.
Yang Chunhua originally intended to keep it for her own family, so that she could buy it later and make it more respectable for Fugui to get married.
Who would have thought that the ticket I had almost gotten would slip away again?
Ye Wangjia scolded her: "Alright! Stop talking nonsense! Even if we had this ticket, would you be willing to buy it? It's over a hundred yuan! Don't be so short-sighted!"
Yang Chunhua had to suppress her anger. Despite her loud and boisterous demeanor, Ye Wang's family was actually the real decision-makers in the household.
Ye Hai finally felt a little better after receiving 120 yuan.
"Mom, keep this money. We'll buy one tomorrow once we get the sewing plane ticket."
"You silly child, what will you do if this job is given up? You're not married, and you're already this age. Are you thinking of going to the countryside?"
Ye Haiqing swallowed hard and scratched his head: "Mom, let's talk about this tomorrow. You've seen my grandma's attitude. If I don't agree, she'll probably come to the factory every day to cause trouble for you and Dad. Since we're going to give it to him sooner or later, we might as well get some benefits in return."
The phrase "I'll give it to him sooner or later" made Ye Anjia's defenses crumble.
They're all children of the Ye family, so why are their parents so biased?
Ye Anjia ate a few bites and went back to his room. Everyone looked at each other, knowing that this matter had upset him again.
After tidying up, Li Xiu went into the house to persuade Ye Anjia, while the three siblings went to Ye Feng's room.
"Tell me, what are you two hiding from me?"
"Big brother, how could you say that?" Ye Nuan was still thinking of trying to fool him a little more.
"Hmph! I know you two too well. If it weren't for prior arrangements, would you have let Xiao Hai give up his job?"
Ye Nuan remained silent. It didn't matter that her older brother had seen through her, since the three of them were definitely on the same side anyway.
Ye Hai whispered about his job application, and Ye Feng immediately jumped up upon hearing it.
"Are you serious?"
Ye Hai nodded: "The letter of introduction from the Commerce Bureau is locked in my room. After completing the formalities tomorrow morning, I can go directly to the Commerce Bureau to report for duty in the afternoon."
"Such a big thing, how could you wait until now to tell us?"
Ye Feng thought about it and then felt something was wrong: "If I don't ask, how long do you plan to keep it a secret?"
