Chapter 52: A Guest at Home
Zhangjiazhai Zhang Fan's family came to have a guest today, it was from the aunt's mother's family, two women. According to the rules, Zhang Fan and his cousin called the two women aunts.
The two received a call from Aunt Zhang Fan, and her husband's sister-in-law took care of her so much, and offered a salary of 3,000 a month, including food and accommodation. How can they not be tempted? Staying at home means doing some housework. If you come out to do things, you can earn more than your husband.
Don't look at three thousand a month, it doesn't seem to be too much, their husbands can earn more than 100 or 200 a day as a casual worker. However, their husbands do not have food and shelter, and casual workers do not have jobs every day.
With the consent of the family, they quickly finished some of the more important work at home and rushed to Zhangjiazhai.
Zhang Fan's aunt's mother's family also received the news that the Zhang family is now rich and has a lot of future in the future. At the beginning, Aunt Zhang Fan went back to her parents' house to borrow money for her nephew to go to college, and they also helped a little, so they couldn't help but secretly get lucky.
"There was still some urgent farm work at home, so I delayed it for a few days. One of the women spoke.
This woman is the sister-in-law of her aunt, with shoulder-length short hair, a little square face, and rough hands and feet, but she gives people a feeling of getting along very well.
The other one is long-haired, her hair is a little yellow and boring, and she is also a little thin, she speaks waxy, and she is not very good at talking and communicating.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter! The eldest aunt and second aunt, you can live here with peace of mind, and the vegetable field will bother you in the future. Zhang Fan said politely.
The two women are kind-hearted people and have also helped themselves, Zhang Fan is not ungrateful, otherwise he would not have taken other villagers to engage in planting and the like.
When they arrived at Zhang's house, they found that their sister-in-law, brother-in-law, and nephew, who was not a relative, had a good attitude, and the two women breathed a sigh of relief.
The Zhang family helped them a lot, and in order to build a building, their family gritted their teeth. I borrowed some from others, but the gap is still a bit big.
The brother-in-law not only borrowed 20,000 yuan, but also gave them a year's salary advance. Three thousand a month, thirty-six a year, and seventy-two for two. With this money, the family does not have to worry about building a house.
"What's the trouble? It's hard to talk about other things, and doing some farm work is nothing. The eldest aunt said.
She saw Zhang Fan bringing hot tea over, and hurriedly took it with both hands: "Don't be thirsty, don't be thirsty! Xiaofan, you are now promising. Those guys in our family are not angry, and letting them study is like forcing them to drink pesticides. ”
Their family is prosperous, and there are eight or nine children in this generation, and the oldest is seventeen or eighteen years old and in high school.
However, I couldn't study one by one, and my grades were a mess. It's like that for boys, and it's the same for girls, and it breaks their hearts.
If it weren't for sending those guys to study, the family would actually have enough money to build a building, and if there are many children, the expenses will be large. The old man of their family just thinks that the grandchildren have no seeds to study, since they don't want to read, let them come out after finishing high school!
It just so happens that you can save a sum of money to build a building for your family.
"Yes, yes!" the second aunt drank tea. "Zhang Fan really treats them as elders, not just workers.
He was relieved to have them arrive. Two days ago, he terminated the contract with two women in the village and told them to go home and do their own thing.
The two village women were very embarrassed, when their family was in difficulty, they offered jobs, and now they left because the family could earn more, and they felt a little impersonal and too snobbish.
It was also Zhang Fan who was considerate and took the initiative to bring it up. Neither of them had the face to ask for this month's salary, so they pushed and pushed, and said that if Zhang Fan was busy in the future, they would come over to help.
"Xiaofan, can the second aunt ask you for something?" The second aunt, who had not spoken much, took the hot tea, and her face struggled for a while, but she still said it.
Zhang Fan and Zhang Liye were stunned, is there anything difficult about it?
"Second aunt, you said. ”
The second aunt knew very well in her heart that this family was the brother-in-law and the parent, but after Zhang Fan came back, this nephew became the backbone. For example, the thing he wanted to ask could only ask Zhang Fan.
"It's my eldest family, and he told me that he doesn't want to study and wants to go out to work with others. I thought, can you let him do things with you?" said the second aunt.
She doesn't talk much, but she is more shrewd in her heart, and she understands that it is better to follow her nephew to do things when she goes out to work.
Look at Li Quan in Zhangjiazhai, and Ye Tiansheng will know that following Zhang Fan will definitely have a future.
In addition, her son wanted to go out before graduating from high school, and she was very worried. When you get to Zhangjiazhai, you don't have to be afraid, she is there anyway. Don't worry about that kid going out and suffering and learning badly.
"Ngawang wants to go out to work before he finishes high school?" Aunt Zhang Fan was surprised.
The eldest aunt was also slightly surprised, she knew that those boys and girls in the family didn't want to study, but the old man said okay, let them finish high school. Ngawang that guy isn't afraid of being beaten by his grandfather?
"It's good to read more books, and it's not too difficult for us anyway. Uncle Zhang Liye also expressed his opinion.
The second aunt smiled bitterly: "I know that if they want to study, we will grit our teeth and send them to school." But they don't want to read, and it's useless to tie them up every day!"
The old man in the family doesn't know how much he hopes that there is a material at home that can read. As long as he has that talent, the old man estimates that he will support it by smashing the pot and selling iron.
This matter, the kid only told her mother for the time being, and the child's father didn't know about it yet, otherwise the kid would not end well.
She was going to scold, but the kid put down his words, and if the family didn't agree, he would sneak away. How can you not be worried?
"It's not impossible to do it with me. Since you don't want to study, it's good to learn something. Second aunt, you go back to him and tell him to finish high school as much as possible. Get your diploma and come to me. Zhang Fan thought for a while and nodded.
After hearing this, the second aunt was excited, and she was happier than working here and getting a salary.
The eldest aunt was also moved, but she didn't know how to speak. Her boy, who is a year younger than Ngawang, is also an unconscious one. After getting out of high school, the most you can do is go out to the factory to find a job.
However, how can you do things better than with Zhang Fan?
Moreover, mothers don't want their children to go away, it's best to stay around, and if you have the opportunity, let someone introduce a good girl, handle the marriage, and give them a few grandchildren to hug.
Zhang Fan looked at his aunt's expression and knew what she was thinking.
"Auntie, your family is the same. If you don't want to study, pull me in. "I'm worried about the shortage of manpower in the future.
After hearing this, the eldest aunt was also full of joy and thanked her again and again!
Outside the house, several cars came in from the village. Leading the way was a commercial vehicle with a local license plate, followed by several pickup vans. The arrival of the small truck was not surprising to the villagers, and they all knew that the vegetables of the Li family were harvested today.
