Chapter 77: Jobs Are Not Easy to Find
Dongmei and Liu Hongxia took the household registration book in their hands and happily came to the recruitment office in the courtyard of the base. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Standing at the door, Dongmei stretched her neck and looked inside, and said to Liu Hongxia next to her: "Hongxia, you said that we will have jobs soon, what work do you estimate will be assigned?"
Liu Hongxia looked at the sky, thought for a while and said, "I want to work in the drilling team, so that I can be with my husband every day." “
Dongmei was not satisfied with Liu Hongxia's work, she said: "On the drilling team, although I can be with my husband every day, what about the children?"
Liu Hongxia has two daughters, the younger Li Mao grew up by her side, and the eldest Li Juan grew up in her grandmother's house, so she thinks that the child can grow up no matter what, don't worry too much, just eat a hundred family meals.
But Dongmei doesn't think so, she thinks that the child must stay by her side, and the parents must always accompany the child, so that the child will not affect the development of personality because of the lack of love.
Liu Hongxia said indifferently: "You don't care about the children, naturally someone will take care of it for you." By the way, you just asked me, what do you want to do?"
Dongmei said without thinking: "It would be nice if I could be a supply and marketing clerk in the supply and marketing cooperative, you see how glorious that profession is, how envied it is, and it doesn't need technical content, you can wear it cleanly all day long, where to stop, just sell goods to people, what a good job."
With that, the two came to the door of the recruitment office.
When they entered the door, an aunt suddenly greeted them, stopped them and said, "You two women, who are you looking for?"
Seeing the staff of the recruitment office, Dongmei said politely: "We are family members, my husband is a technician of the drilling team, her husband is the captain of the drilling team, and we are looking for the section chief of your recruitment office." “
Hearing that she was looking for the section chief, the aunt half-squinted her eyes and stretched out her hand and said, "What are you looking for him?"
Dongmei handed her non-agricultural household registration book to her aunt and said, "Our two family members have specially bought an urban household registration, and now we are looking for the section chief to assign us a job." “
Liu Hongxia, who was standing next to her, said: "We don't have a letter of introduction, we are here to look for a job. “
Hearing that if you buy a hukou, you can be assigned a job, and the aunt suddenly laughed out loud and said: "I just came to a few family members before, and they all took the hukou book and said that they wanted to work, but they were all blown away by me, why did you come here again now, let's go, don't believe that if you have a hukou, you will have a job, those are all rumors." “
Hearing the rumor, Dongmei's head slammed into a slam, and she couldn't believe her ears and said: "We spent almost ten years of savings to buy a hukou, just to get a job, you actually said that this is a rumor, it's impossible, right?"
The aunt suddenly said impatiently: "If you have a hukou and you have a job, then thousands of family members in the entire drill base, everyone has bought a hukou, do you still arrange jobs for everyone, where does the unit get so many jobs for you, and you don't think about it?"
Liu Hongxia said unconvinced: "Since you don't arrange a job when you have a hukou, why do some family members successfully arrange a job after buying a hukou?"
The aunt drove the two out of the house and said, "Whoever can arrange a job for you, you should go to whom, don't go wild here." “
Dongmei and Liu Hongxia said that they wouldn't go out, and soon the three of them made a mess.
At this time, Section Chief Liu, who heard the noise outside, walked out of the office.
He hurriedly stepped forward to separate the three of them and said, "Everyone says that three women are in one play, what's wrong with you three women, I think it's almost time to fight together." “
Dongmei and Liu Hongxia saw that the section chief had come out, so they informed the section chief Liu about the two of them.
After listening to the two of them again, Section Chief Liu did not reject the two quickly, but reasoned, gave examples, and said a lot of comforting words.
At the same time, Section Chief Liu also convinced Dongmei and Liu Hongxia that if the work of the unit was so easy to get, all the workers would bring their families out of their hometowns, buy hukou and arrange jobs.
At this time, Dongmei and Liu Hongxia knew that they had been deceived by Kang Ping, and it was impossible to get the job they dreamed of after buying a hukou.
Coming out of the recruitment office, Dongmei wanted to cry without tears, she drooped her head, feeling that the future was bleak, and her work dream was ruthlessly shattered again.
Compared with Dongmei's despair, Liu Hongxia looked very open, although she regretted the 5,000 yuan, but just smiled faintly and said: "Although the work has not been done, but our good or bad is already commercial food." “
Compared with Liu Hongxia's indifference, Dongmei couldn't calm down at all, the five thousand yuan was really too important to her and Wei Guo.
The 5,000 yuan, but the money they had saved after spending many years and frugality.
And this money is not only the guarantee of their family's life, but also the money for Weiguo's younger brother to open a clinic and start a business.
Dongmei originally planned to use this money to buy a household registration for herself, and after getting a job, she and Weiguo would make money together, Weiguo would earn four or five thousand a year, she would earn two or three thousand a year, and seven or eight thousand yuan a year, no matter what, it would be enough for Baoguo to open a clinic.
But now, with the 5,000 quick money wasted, how can Baoguo open a clinic?
The reason why Liu Hongxia is not as desperate as Dongmei is also due to the income of him and her husband Li Jianjun.
As the captain, Li Jianjun's income is much higher than that of Wei Guo, and he can usually get some extra money, so spending the 5,000 yuan will not have any impact on Liu Hongxia and Li Jianjun's families.
But Dongmei and the Weiguo family are different, without the 5,000 yuan, they will be paralyzed.
Dongmei came home and sat on the edge of the bed like a deflated balloon without biting.
Wei Guo guessed that Dongmei had come back from a closed door.
Because he had thought clearly before Dongmei wanted to buy a hukou, even if he bought a hukou, Dongmei would not have a job in the unit, but Dongmei didn't listen, she had to buy a hukou, she couldn't stop her, she could only let her hit the south wall, and she couldn't repent until Dongmei's nose and face were swollen.
Wei Guo wanted to comfort Dongmei, but he was stupid, walked up to Dongmei, and asked directly: "Dongmei, is the job done?"
Hearing Wei Guo's words, Dongmei was like pouring a basin of cold water on her head, and she said regretfully: "No, I knew I would have listened to you, otherwise I wouldn't have wasted so much money." “
Wei Guo sat next to Dongmei and said: "You women are all long-haired and short-sighted, this time you will eat a trench, next time you must grow wise, listen to our men's words more, so as not to be deceived." “
Dongmei listened to Wei Guo's words, and felt very responsive, not at all like words to comfort and enlighten herself, but like words to mock herself.
Dongmei knew that she was at a loss, so she endured it and said: "It's all my fault, I bought all the money you gave to Baoguo to open a clinic and start a business, and I lost it." “
When Wei Guo heard Dongmei's apology, he felt that his comfort had worked, so he patted her on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, it's okay to fight the water, anyway, you women's families can't earn a penny, just go to the front line for us men to earn."
Wei Guo's words of comfort to Dongmei reached Dongmei's ears, and the taste completely changed.
She felt that Wei Guo was deliberately showing in front of herself that she had a job and could make money to support her family.
Dongmei, who couldn't hold back any longer, choked up and said: "You men are powerful, you have a formal job, you can make money, you can support your family, we women have no ability, eat yours, drink yours, and spend your ...... when it's over."
Hearing Dongmei's self-defeating words, Wei Guo felt very unhappy in his heart, thinking that you did something wrong, I Wei Guo comforted you and gave you a step down, not only did you not go down, but you had to inch in.
Wei Guo sighed and said: "I have to go to work tomorrow, don't think about any work in the future, you are a family member, just be a good family member, don't think nonsense all day long." “
Dongmei was completely angry when she heard Wei Guo's words denying herself.
She stood up abruptly and said, "Don't you just hate me for buying a household account with the money you gave to Baoguo to open a clinic and start a business?
Wei Guo looked at Dongmei's angry expression, and said in his heart, you did something wrong, just don't criticize you, you are still reasonable?
So, Wei Guo glared at Dongmei and said: "I told you before, if you buy a hukou, you don't necessarily have a job, if you don't listen, you have to buy a hukou, now the five thousand yuan is gone, and you don't get a job, are you happy?"
Wei Guo's words pierced Dong Mei's heart, and she suddenly thought of herself, since marrying Wei Guo, the days of working in the countryside, the days of serving his parents, the days of taking care of his younger brothers and sisters, and so on.
Defending the country doesn't care about his own hard work, but now he starts to dislike himself?
Isn't he a family member, a woman who has no job and can't make money, is it necessary to dislike it like this?
Dongmei cried violently, looked at Wei Guo and said, "If you dislike me, you can go outside and find a woman with a job to come back, and I'll leave now." “
After finishing speaking, Dongmei opened the pocket of her clothes, pointed to it and said, "Look, I didn't take a penny from you." “
With that, Dongmei pushed open the door and walked out.
Wei Guo saw that Dongmei regarded his kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, so he simply ignored Dongmei who rushed out of the door, and he also slammed the door and walked out, walking aimlessly towards the river.
In this way, the two adults quarreled because of the purchase of a household registration, and walked out without giving in to each other, without taking into account the children who were about to come home from school.
After Dongmei walked out, she thought to herself, according to the usual routine, usually half an hour later, Wei Guo took the initiative to come out to find herself, but today Wei Guo did not play according to the routine at all, and even ran out, and ran all the way.
Dongmei sees that she can't outrun Weiguo, and the two children are about to come back from school, and they are still waiting for dinner, if she leaves, Weiguo is also gone, what will the children do?
Thinking of this, Dongmei wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, turned her head, and walked home.
On the way back, Dongmei suddenly saw a restaurant not far away, and suddenly, she had an idea.
She thought, it seems that she has no hope of getting the work of the unit, since there is no way to get the work of the unit, why don't she do some work outside the unit.
Although it will be looked down upon and even ridiculed by everyone, it is a job after all.
In that small town on the Loess Plateau, where the public economy is dominated and the private economy has just sprouted, everyone's thinking is not so advanced.
Everyone thinks that in this world, only the work of the public and the unit is called work, and going out to do a small business and working is a shame, no ability, or a poor family will take that road.
Therefore, most of the family members, even if the poor in the family no longer have rice to cook, still stay at home.
They don't go out to work, they don't go out to start a small business, they wait for their husbands who work on the front line, and come back with a salary of a few hundred yuan a month.
When Dongmei came home, she decided, ignoring the ridicule and contempt of the people around her, and even insulting, she wanted to go out to work, she wanted to go out to earn money to support her family.
