Chapter 46: Warmth and Affection (I)
Old Chen Tou sighed lightly and talked about the reason for the matter.
It turned out that Lao Chen Tou was the eldest in the family, Chen Tao and his grandfather's patriarchal thinking was very serious, and the old people of that era generally had this kind of thinking, thinking that "sooner or later the daughter is someone else's, and the son is the root of the descendants", so Chen Tao and his grandfather let Lao Chen Tou learn to be a technician, and later Lao Chen Tou became a worker in a steel window factory with his craftsmanship. Before the wave of layoffs, the technical workers of the steel window factory were definitely iron rice bowls. In contrast, Chen Tao's three aunts were not so lucky, they entered the society before graduating from high school and suffered a lot.
For this reason, her third aunt Chen Cuihua complained a little about the family, and even had opinions about Lao Chen. Later, there was a sudden change in Lao Chen's family, and he owed a lot of debts in order to treat Chen Tao, and his job in the iron rice bowl was gone. On the contrary, Chen Cuihua's life is getting better and better, and last year she built a two-story building and bought a car.
With money in her hands, her tail is getting higher and higher. She doesn't look down on this big brother, she thinks he's a wretch, finished, and he speaks unceremoniously, picking his nose and eyes, to put it bluntly, he is using this kind of aggressive showing off to find psychological balance.
This kind of thing happened not once or twice, but Chen Tao had been demented for eight years and didn't know it.
After listening to Lao Chen's words, Chen Tao couldn't say what it was like in his heart, and frowned, "My grandfather is not bad for us because of his patriarchy." When she said that, she was unreasonable? When you took me to see a doctor, didn't she lend us any money she had? What is there to show off?"
Lao Chen waved his hand and said, "What do you mention in the past? No matter how bad she is, she is also my own sister, your aunt, you have to be polite to the elders, no matter how unhappy you are, you have to live on your face, son, family and talent are all prosperous!"
Chen Tao looked at his father's weather-beaten and wrinkled face, felt a little uncomfortable, and nodded, "Okay, Dad, I know what to do." ”
The two entered the private room, and Chen Tao greeted the three aunts, put the gifts aside, and found a place to sit down.
Of his three aunts, only Chen Cuihua's family conditions are not bad, she is a rich rural woman, with red nails, red lips, and a golden necklace around her neck. When Chen Tao entered the house, she was eating melon seeds, and the puffy melon seed skins were flying everywhere, and when she saw Chen Tao, her attitude immediately turned 180 degrees, and she said with a smile,
"Xiao Tao is back? I heard your father say, you are in high school in the city? How are you studying? Can you keep up? Or I say, you kid still has a little life, stupid for so many years, and he has actually eased up!
Chen Tao originally had a fire in his heart, listening to her speak with thorns secretly, he couldn't help but glance at the corners of his mouth, and sneered and didn't speak.
Everyone couldn't help but be a little embarrassed when they saw Chen Tao ignoring her, and Lao Chen Tou hurriedly came out to play a round, "Xiao Tao is not bad at studying, he can occupy a middle class in their class, but his English is not good, alas, he was delayed when he was a child." ”
Chen Cuihua saw that Chen Tao actually ignored herself with a cold face, and her heart was even more unhappy.
"What are you?
When I talk to you, I can afford you,
You're still on your face!
Phew!"
She glanced at Chen Tao and said in a non-yin and non-yang manner, "Big brother, I didn't say you, what's the use of you letting Xiao Tao go to school? Is he able to go to college? Even if his ancestral grave smokes and he is admitted, what will you give him for? Do you have money? In this society, how much is a college student worth? Do you come out to find a job?"
In some areas of Huaxia where education is underdeveloped, there are no longer a few people who think like Chen Cuihua, and when the eldest aunt and second aunt heard it, they felt that her words made a little sense, and they echoed,
"Let's find a job for Chen Tao! Earn some money, and the two of you can breathe a sigh of relief. ”
"Yes, go to the construction site with dishes and dishes, and make money to support your family!"
Although Lao Chen Tou has never heard the famous saying "knowledge changes fate", he has a belief in his heart, "Going to school is a broad road, and it is absolutely not wrong to study and enter university." Like a stubborn old scalper, he shook his head and said, "I still have to study!"
Chen Tao wanted to say that he didn't make a lot of money, but he knew that they didn't believe it, so he really wanted to go to the bank to withdraw a wad of money and slap her in the face!
At this moment, the door curtain was lifted, and Chunsheng, the cousin of the third aunt's family, came with his grandfather in his arms, followed by the three uncles.
Everyone was chattering, and Lao Chen Tou introduced, "Chunsheng, this is your cousin Xiaotao, don't you know each other?"
Wu Chunsheng is three years older than Chen Tao, and the two played together when they were young, but then they didn't get in touch, and he nodded to Chen Tao a little embarrassed.
Chen Tao replied politely, "Hello cousin." ”
The third aunt glanced at her son, then at Chen Tao, and said proudly, "Our Chunsheng graduated from the technical school this year, according to me, the young man, you have to go outside, our old Wu feels sorry for his son, and the work has been arranged." I'll be at work in a few days!"
When the second aunt heard this, her eyes immediately lit up, "Go to work, are we going to build a new water purification plant?" Oh, third sister, you really have the ability! The treatment of that factory is so good, ordinary people can't get in!"
The third aunt's round face suddenly smiled like a flower, and her eyes were squinted and she couldn't see it, "Hehe, let's do something." Four thousand five a month, five insurances and one housing fund, just look at the machine, there is no heavy work, and he can't be tired!" he said, glancing at Chen Tao triumphantly.
When everyone heard that the salary was so good, they couldn't help but be very envious.
Taisheng Group is one of the largest enterprises in the local area, and its factories are not only better than ordinary small factories, but also have a wider range of ways to be promoted in the future. Wu Chunsheng and his father Wu Deli were originally workers at Taisheng Brewery, but this time they were transferred back to the water purification plant and became the deputy director of Workshop 2, and by the way, they also solved their son's work.
The second aunt's eyes showed an eager look, and she pulled Chen Cuihua's cuffs and said, "Third sister, how much does it cost to enter this factory?
Chen Cuihua pouted and said, "This thing is not easy to do, thanks to Lao Wu's familiarity with their factory director, don't you want to give gifts to ordinary people!"
Wu Deli said with a smile, "Yes, second sister, do you know how many people are needed in the water purification plant? Twenty! The work is brisk, and ordinary people really can't get in! However, I have a good relationship with Director Xu, hehe, he will consider what I say, you wait for my news." I'll let you know when you're done!"
The second aunt thanked her for her kindness, and said that thanks to the third sister who found a good husband, the whole family followed suit.
Chen Tao's grandfather, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke, "Cuihua, let, arrange your eldest brother in, then, that's your own eldest brother, he has a hard time, you help him!"
