In this era, children in the countryside began to help the family work from the moment they could walk.

The younger ones take care of their younger siblings, and when they are four or five years old, they can help adults collect firewood, and when they are seven or eight years old, they can cook and help adults with farm work.

When he was ten years old, he was able to work in the fields.

In the commune, children are also counted as wages, and adult strong laborers can only get ten cents a day, and children can only get two cents.

But.

Don't underestimate these two jobs, when it comes to the end of the year, it may mean that you will live on the children's two jobs.

When the green and yellow are not harvested, the adults are working in the production team, and the children can also pick wild vegetables and peel the bark, which has a great effect!

Who would be willing to let their own children work for someone else's family in vain?

Jia Shan frowned, and said embarrassedly: "Dongxu daughter-in-law, it's not that the uncle doesn't help you, but you also know that the situation in our commune is more serious this year, and the relief food has not come down yet, and the children in the village have to pick wild vegetables." ”

"Don't have children, you want adults." Qin Huairu said with a smile: "But don't worry, we don't use people for nothing, we will pay her every month." ”

Qin Huairu originally planned to prostitute for nothing, a rural girl, take care of food and housing, and give some pocket money, it's fine.

But seeing that after so many years, the reputation of the Jia family in Jiajiazhuang has long been ruined, and relatives are unwilling to help, so she has to propose a way to pay for labor.

"Pay on a monthly basis?" Jia Shan sneered: "This, how embarrassing it is, it's all a family, Jia Zhang's family is sick, our relatives should have helped, how can we be embarrassed to ask for your family's money." Besides, you have to feed three children by yourself, and now Jia Zhang's illness still has to spend money, and he is definitely not financially well-off. ”

This is the simple rural people, when you treat them with a cold face, they will stay away from you and disdain you.

But.

When you treat them well, they will feel a little embarrassed.

Qin Huairu said with a smile: "It's okay, uncle, I am now a small leader in the workshop of the rolling mill, and I can receive an extra allowance every month." ”

When she said this, Qin Huairu's heart was full of pride, if it weren't for Li Weidong's help, she might still be racking her brains to calculate others, and it would definitely be impossible for her to be so confident.

I have to say, it's a really good feeling.

"Ah, Huairu, have you become a leader?" Jia Shan was a little surprised.

Jia Maolin and Jia Dongxu have worked in the rolling mill for so many years, and they are just small workers, Qin Huairu has only been in charge for a few years, and he has become a leader, and his ability cannot be underestimated.

The members of Jiajiazhuang also looked at Qin Huairu with awe.

The rolling mill is a large state-owned factory, with a very high level, and the status of a small leader in the workshop is similar to that of a secretary in a commune.

That kind of awe-inspiring and envious gaze made Qin Huairu a little intoxicated.

However, she knew that the most important thing now was to find a nurse for Jia Zhang's family, and seeing that it was about to get dark, she couldn't delay any longer.

"Uncle, I think so, taking care of people is not an easy job, and I can't let my relatives work in vain, I will take out five yuan every month as her salary." Qin Huairu said with a smile: "And you still have to eat and live." ”

"Hey, five yuan, Qin Huairu is really generous enough, we have been busy in the commune for a year, and we can't earn five yuan."

"Yes, it seems that Qin Huairu is really a leader, otherwise he would be reluctant to offer such a high price."

"My third daughter is just eighteen years old this year, and she hasn't said anything about her family yet, so she can let my daughter go."

"The second girl in my family is nineteen this year, she is ingenious, she is also diligent, and she will definitely be competent."

The members quickly thought of another benefit.

His own daughter entered the capital, and maybe she could marry in the capital.

Just like Qin Huairu, she was also a little girl in the countryside at the beginning, and by chance, she met Jia Dongxu, and then she entered the city.

Now you look at people, they have become workshop leaders and eat public food.

and Qin Jingru.

This girl just went to the capital on a blind date, although the family affair did not work out, the family also stayed in the capital, and now she has also entered the rolling mill.

The two sisters of the Qin family are the role models of those girls in Jiajiazhuang.

After thinking about it, the members quickly surrounded Qin Huairu and introduced their daughters.

Because Qin Huairu has not been in Jiajiazhuang for a long time, she does not know the situation in Jiajiazhuang, and she does not know the conduct of those girls.

One can only turn to Jashan.

"Uncle, you also know that taking care of people is not an easy job, and I also have a few simple requirements."

"First, he has a good character, is diligent in his hands and feet, has a good temper, and is a relative, if he falls out, it will not look good."

"Second, love cleanliness, the compound we live in is now being selected as an advanced compound, if you make the house a miasma, you will be criticized."

"Third, you have to know your relatives, after all, if that girl is brought to the capital by me, I have to be responsible for her."

These requirements are reasonable, Jia Shan nodded and said, "Huairu, don't worry, I will definitely choose the best girl for you." ”

Jia Shan's heart was already excited at this time.

He was actually careful.

Jia Shan's youngest daughter is exactly eighteen years old this year, with a junior culture, and she looks smart, and she can pinch out the water with a gentle pinch.

It is a famous beauty in ten miles and eight towns.

Therefore, just as an adult, the boys in the neighborhood all asked someone to come to the door to propose,

were all rejected by Jia Shan.

Jia Shan felt that if his daughter was placed in the capital, she would be enough to be a leader's wife with her appearance.

It's just that I don't have a chance.

Isn't this the opportunity?

Qin Huairu didn't know Jia Shan's temperament, so he nodded and agreed.

Subsequently, Jia Shan led Qin Huairu to his home and beckoned his wife to take good care of Qin Huairu.

He hurried to the commune's primary school.

His daughter, Jia Taohua, is a substitute teacher at the primary school in the commune, with no salary, and is counted as ten cents a day.

Ten cents is cost-effective, that is, 2 cents, where is there to go to the capital to be a nurse for others.

Jiajiazhuang Primary School at this time.

Jia Taohua was leading the children to read when there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

Jia Taohua turned her head to look and saw the young man standing outside, frowning tightly.

The young man's name is Yuan Dabao, the son of the party secretary of Jiajiazhuang Commune, who is idle all day long, and by chance, he met Jia Taohua.

Yuan Dabao was shocked by Jia Taohua's appearance, swore that Jia Taohua would not marry, and when he returned home, he asked Yuan Zhishu to invite someone to Jia Taohua to propose marriage.

The surname Yuan is a big surname in the neighborhood, and the Yuan branch secretary has a bit of influence around, and many families are scrambling to be related to the Yuan family.

But.

Jia Taohua disliked Yuan Dabao as a second-rate son, and said that she would not agree to marry Yuan Dabao.

And Jia Shan also felt that Yuan Dabao was not serious, even if he had the blessing of Yuan Zhishu, he would not make a difference in the future.

Therefore, he rejected the Yuan family's proposal.

Who would have thought that Yuan Dabao, a second-rate son who has been involved in flowers and grass since he was a child, really moved his mind this time, and claimed that he would not marry Jia Taohua.

He took advantage of Yuan Zhishu's relationship and became the director of the canteen of Jiajiazhuang Primary School.

There are only three or four hundred students in Jiajiazhuang Primary School, and most of the students feel that eating in the cafeteria is relatively expensive, and they are relatively close to home, so they will go home to eat at noon.

Therefore, the canteen of Jiajiazhuang Primary School actually exists in name only, and what Yuan Dabao needs to take care of is only the big yellow dog at the door of the canteen.

However, this is exactly what Yuan Dabao wants, and he came to Jiajiazhuang Primary School, not for work, but to pursue Jia Taohua.

On weekdays, when he was fine, Yuan Dabao would stand outside the classroom, watching Jia Taohua teach the children, and after class, he would invite Jia Taohua to go out to play, but every time Jia Taohua refused.

Yuan Dabao was not discouraged, but enjoyed it, and became more determined to pursue Jia Taohua.

Compared with those little girls in the village, Jia Taohua is a bright peach blossom.

Seeing that Yuan Dabao actually harassed himself in class this time, Jia Taohua was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

"Students, wait a minute, I'll go out now." Jia Taohua asked the students to review their homework by themselves, and opened the door in a hurry.

Push Yuan Dabao aside.

Glaring at him, he asked, "Yuan Dabao, what are you doing here, don't you see that I'm teaching students?" ”

"Peach Blossom, don't be angry." Yuan Dabao faced the angry Jia Taohua, and grinned: "Today, the movie is playing in Zhang Village next door, and I have already asked people to occupy a good position for us, and when you get out of school, let's go to the movies together, right?" ”

I have to say that Yuan Dabao still has experience in chasing girls.

In this era, there were no entertainment activities in the countryside, and the movie every six months became the grandest festival in ten miles and eight towns.

Thousands of members gathered in the commune's mill at a time, waiting for the city's projectionists to come and show the film.

Jia Taohua is also a young person, and she is even more interested in watching movies.

But her anger didn't subside.

"Yuan Dabao, let me tell you, even if I want to go to the movies, I won't go with you, you get out of here now!"

Yuan Dabao smiled disapprenously: "Peach Blossom, don't be angry, I'm waiting for you at the door!" ”

"You"

Jia Taohua really has no way to face people like Yuan Dabao.

In fact, due to Yuan Dabao's harassment, she reported the problem to the principal several times.

However, the principal did not impose any punishment on Yuan Dabao.

Actually, just think about it.

Yuan Dabao is the son of the commune secretary, and Jiajiazhuang Primary School is under the management of the commune, what can the principal do!

Fortunately.

Jia Taohua's father, Jia Shan, is the production captain of Jiajiazhuang, and has a high prestige in Jiajiazhuang, and can call dozens of young men with a shout, Yuan Dabao did not dare to do anything overkill.

"Boring!"

Jia Taohua flipped over and twisted her ass into the house.

Yuan Dabao's eyes were fixed on her slender waist, he smiled, and muttered in a low voice: "Little Langzi, don't look at your arrogance now, when I marry you into the family, you will know how powerful the uncle is." ”

Yuan Dabao decided to stand at the door of the classroom and wait for Jia Taohua.

Time passed little by little, the big bell on the old locust tree in the school rang, and the children ran out of the classroom in a crowd.

Yuan Dabao saw Jia Taohua walking out with a book, and was about to step forward to stop her.

Suddenly, a voice came from afar: "Peach Blossom, class is over?" ”

As if he had been bitten by a poisonous snake, Yuan Dabao hurriedly retracted his steps, turned his head to look, and saw Jia Shan staring at him with a frown.

Yuan Dabao was even more frightened.

After Yuan Dabao's entanglement of Jia Taohua was known to Jia Shan, although Jia Shan took care of Yuan Zhishu's face, he did not make a big fuss.

But.

still brought two young men, stopped Yuan Dabao, and taught Yuan Dabao a lesson.

Part of the reason why Yuan Dabao didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary to Jia Taohua was also because of Jia Shan.

It's just that Yuan Dabao is not reconciled to leave like this.

He had already arranged that on the way back from watching the movie, two little hooligans would jump out of the field next to him and stop Jia Taohua.

When the time comes, he will appear at the critical moment and defeat those two little hooligans to take over Jia Taohua.

As long as the raw rice is cooked into cooked rice.

Jia Taohua can only marry him.

For fear that others would find out, he had invited those two little rascals from a distant country at a high price, and it was a pity that they were wasted like this.

Jia Shan didn't take Yuan Dabao in his eyes, in his opinion, Yuan Dabao was the kind of person who had a thief's heart but no guts, and he didn't care when he saw Yuan Dabao staring at him.

He looked at Jia Taohua and said, "Peach Blossom, Dad wants to tell you good news, do you know Brother Dongxu's daughter-in-law, Qin Huairu?" ”

"Brother Dongxu Qin Huairu. You mean Jia Dongxu's beautiful daughter-in-law, know, know, that was when Jia Dongxu got married, Qin Huairu also gave a piece of white rabbit candy! It's sweet. Jia Taohua was puzzled: "Dad, isn't she in the capital?" It's been a long time since you've been back, why did you suddenly mention her and say there was good news. ”

"Jia Dongxu's mother, Jia Zhang's stroke, is lying in bed and can't move, and the Jia family is looking for someone to take care of Jia Zhang." Jia Shan said with a smile: "I have already told Qin Huairu to let you go, and people will give you a salary of five yuan every month." ”

"Five yuan is a lot of salary, but taking care of people" Jia Taohua was a little reluctant.

Due to limited conditions, she dropped out of primary school after only studying, in fact, she is also an ideal and ambitious woman, otherwise she would not have been able to reach the level of a teacher after unremitting study.

Jia Taohua's dream is to go to college, not to take care of an old woman.

Also, she has met Jia Zhang's a few times, and she has a very bad impression of Jia Zhang's.

Yuan Dabao next to him has been paying attention to the situation here.

Hearing that Jia Taohua was going to enter the city, he couldn't help it anymore, and ran over and said, "Taohua, you must not go into the city and take care of people, that's what the next person did, how can you do it?" ”

Jia Shan said with a cold face: "Jia Zhang's is Peach Blossom's aunt, Peach Blossom takes care of her, how can she be considered a subordinate?" Besides, this is my family's business, what does it have to do with you. ”

"No, I just don't agree!"

"Heh, you guy, don't you still want to be beaten."

Jia Taohua originally didn't agree to go, but seeing Yuan Dabao's unrelenting appearance, she knew that if she stayed in Jiajiazhuang, she would definitely be harassed by Yuan Dabao.

It's better to go to the capital.

She didn't believe it, could Yuan Dabao still be in the capital? (End of chapter)
