Chapter 41: Future Plans
Put the chicken in the pot, throw two slices of ginger in it and cover with a lid.
Zhang Ruolin wrung up a pot of hot water, walked out, put down the wooden basin leaning against the wall, took the clothes handed by Zhao Jianguo, threw them in the wooden basin, turned around and returned to the room, hugged a bunch of clothes and walked out.
"There's no soap washboard, right?" asked Zhao Jianguo.
"Soap is there, washboard is not. ”
"I'm going to buy a washboard and come back. ”
"No, it's not a matter of much money. ”
Zhang Ruolin put the clothes in the basin, twisted the kettle and poured the full pot of water into it, tested the water temperature, poured the bucket into the basin, then poured it into the wooden basin, squatted down and rubbed it simply.
After washing her hands, Zhang Ruolin shook off the water in her hands, went out, and bought a wooden washboard and mallet for a piece of five.
Looking at Zhao Jianguo, who was sitting on the bamboo chair, Zhang Ruolin glanced at him slightly, how could he agree to move in in the first place? If it is convenient for one person, there is no need to waste extra money, but fortunately, this guy will stay for a week at most.
After a week, her life will be free.
Zhao Jianguo watched Zhang Ruolin pick up a bundle of nylon rope, "For drying clothes?"
Zhang Ruolin said "um".
"I'll do it. ”
"Forget it, you can take care of yourself, don't fall over there, I'll be the one who will be in trouble then, I don't want to serve people. ”
Zhao Jianguo looked at Zhang Ruolin's back speechlessly, reached out and touched his nose, he Zhao Jianguo had been repeatedly disliked one day.
Zhang Ruolin twisted the small bamboo chair and walked under the eaves and looked at it.
The architecture of the house is old-fashioned, with relatively long eaves, almost 1.5 meters long.
Dismantling the nylon rope, Zhang Ruolin wrapped it around one end of the rope and threw it at the hole in the wood above under the eaves.
Once, twice, three times......
Zhao Jianguo walked over with a smile on his face while holding a cane, "Give it to me!"
"Are you okay?" Zhang Ruolin asked with a hint of embarrassment, handing the nylon rope in her hand to Zhao Jianguo.
Zhao Jianguo circled, clamped the cane under his armpit, grabbed the thread with one hand, and threw it gently behind the rope with the other hand, throwing it into the gap of the eaves shelf. Grab one end of the nylon rope, tie a live buckle, and pull lightly to tie the rope to the shelf in the eaves.
Turning his head, Zhao Jianguo looked at it, "Bring a pair of scissors." ”
Zhang Ruolin said "oh oh" twice, quickly ran to the kitchen window, and handed the scissors to Zhao Jianguo.
"There is no ladder, keep it longer, and my legs are not convenient now, so I waste some rope. ”
"It's fine. ”
"For the time being, find a few steel bars, hit them on the wood, and put two pillars, which is more convenient than using ropes. ”
Zhang Ruolin nodded.
Zhao Jianguo grabbed the rope and pulled it gently, completely fixed it on the shelf, took the scissors, cut off the excess rope, and handed the scissors to Zhang Ruolin, "There must still be a man in the family, and there are some things that you women can't do." ”
Zhang Ruolin glanced at him, her heart was full of strangeness, but she still nodded, women can hold up half the sky, but there are some things that women really can't do, at least like this kind of work, men are better than women.
Turned around and went back to the room, took a piece of soap out, Zhang Ruolin walked to the well water, squatted down, put the washboard in the wooden basin, picked up a piece of clothing and put it on the washboard, and began to wash the clothes.
Zhao Jianguo sat down and put his crutches on the ground, "I've come to the county, have you thought about what to do next? Six yuan a month, at most, it's barely enough." ”
"I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it in a few days!" Zhang Ruolin replied lightly, it has only been a few days since she crossed over, so many things have happened, and she just moved to the county where she has time to think about these messy things.
You must be looking for a job, stay at home all day, it doesn't matter if it's a short time, but after a long time, you can't get bored?
In recent years, Zhang Ruolin knows that even if he doesn't work and has no source of income, he will not attract the attention of others, after all, this is a period of market economy. But if you wait a few more years, if there is no source of income, there will be no explanation at all.
Now it was only five or three years, and when it began in five or seven years, all the policies would be changed, and if she remembered correctly, in five or seven or five or eight years, there was a famine in some places, and it was not until five or nine years that it broke out completely, and it lasted until sixty-one years.
But thinking about it, Zhang Ruolin also has a bit of a headache, her current identity is an illiterate village girl who doesn't know big characters, and it is estimated that it will be a little difficult to find an easy and suitable job. Even if you can find it, it is estimated that you will go to the main road to sweep the street.
As for entering the factory to do manual work, she will not consider it, if she can find a job in the office, it would be good, but such a job is a little difficult to find!
Their county town is so big, and there are so many opportunities to work, and everyone wants to work in the factory, but how many people can enter the factory? Otherwise, there would be no such thing as educated youths going to the countryside in the future.
Think about it, Zhang Ruolin sighed, do you really want to start from elementary school? Get a diploma first? It is better to have a high Chinese certificate, if you have a high Chinese certificate, then you have more opportunities to choose a job.
"Why don't I find you one?"
Zhang Ruolin raised her head and looked at Zhao Jianguo, "What job?"
"What do you want to do?"
"I want to stay at home every day, eat and sleep, sleep and eat, open my mouth when I eat, and stretch my hands when I am clothed. Zhao Ruolin glanced at Zhao Jianguo, she really regarded her as illiterate, what does it mean to understand the two words?
Zhao Jianguo smiled, "You cast the wrong fetus." ”
"It's not what you say, my intention. ”
Zhao Jianguo stretched out his hand and touched his chin, "It's not impossible to find such a job, but there are really not many people who can afford it." ”
Zhang Ruolin laughed twice, "You're not one?"
Zhao Jianguo nodded awkwardly, "I don't mean anything else, it's just that your requirements are a little too high." But I can tell the leaders in the factory that you can come to the factory as a temporary worker, work for a few years, and when the seniority comes up, you can become a regular worker, and it is better than you looking for a job outside!
Zhang Ruolin said "oh", "I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it later! Actually, I have had a wish since I was a child, to be able to know words." I've heard people say that if you know how to read, you can get a good job, right?"
