The Yan family's "dinner" ended unhappy. Yan Jiefang returned to the house, looked at the black ceiling and made up his mind that he would never marry Zhang Xiaohong in this life.
Since Yan Jiecheng has married three people who have no jobs, why can't he?
Besides, Zhang Xiaohong is a Huanghua eldest daughter, and her personality is much better than Huang Yanling!
After Yan Jiecheng and Huang Yanling came back from watching a movie, they heard that Yan Jiefang was going to marry Zhang Xiaohong, and they immediately became unhappy.
"Dad, don't worry. Jiefang just didn't understand it for a while. I'm going to persuade him now."
Yan Jiecheng put down his bowls and chopsticks, pushed open Yan Jiefang's room and walked in.
....In fact, it cannot be said to be Yan Jiefang's house.
The Yan family only had two rooms, which was fine when they were young. The three children, Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang, were crowded into one room. Yan Jiedi slept in the same room with the third aunt, which was quite manageable.
Later, as the children grew older and Yan Jiecheng got married, the room became a bit insufficient.
So Yan Bugui hired a construction team from the street to divide the house into four rooms. Although the rooms were small, they could still be accommodated.
Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang live in the same house. Yan Jiekuang is an activist. Now he is in junior high school. He cleans the classroom every day after school before returning home, so he has not come back yet.
The scene returns to the house.
Yan Jiefang was sulking. When he saw Yan Jiecheng come in, he became even more unhappy. He turned to face the wall and snorted coldly.
"Hey, you kid is getting more and more shameful now. You knew I came in, but you didn't even know to stand up and say hello. Do you still have my brother in your eyes?" Yan Jiecheng turned around and closed the door, pulled over a chair and sat on it.
In front of Yan Jiefang.
Seeing that Yan Jiefang made no move, he could only continue: "Yan Jiefang, I heard from my father about Zhang Xiaohong's situation. This girl's family conditions are so poor that she is not worthy of you at all. So I advise you to change your mind as soon as possible and don't
Contact Zhang Xiaohong again."
"Brother, listen to what you are saying. What do you mean by poor conditions? Can Zhang Xiaohong have worse conditions than those of your marriage partners?"
"Hey, kid, I'm your brother. Do you talk to your brother like this?"
"Brother, I'm going to work the night shift soon."
Seeing that Yan Jiefang ignored him at all, Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to tell him to be more serious when working, and then returned to the house.
In the next room, Huang Yanling was already lying on the bed. When she saw Yan Jiecheng come in, she curled her lips and said, "Jiecheng, it's true that you can't even control your own brother now."
"Don't stir up trouble here. Liberation is my brother. Don't interfere in matters between our brothers in the future!" Yan Jiecheng unbuttoned his clothes and lay down on the bed.
Huang Yanling was scolded for a few words, but she was so angry that she had no choice.
She realized that Yan Jiecheng was different from Banggeng. Banggeng was a soft-eared person. As long as the wind blew in his ear, he would obey her words.
Yan Jiecheng, on the other hand, has a somewhat macho style.
However, Huang Yanling didn't care. As long as she lived in the Yan family, sooner or later she would take back the power in the family.
The next day, both Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang went to work. Huang Yanling had no job. Her most important task now was to raise a baby so that she could give birth to a healthy and lovely child for the Yan family in the future.
In the past, Huang Yanling would not get up from bed until about ten o'clock, but today she got up a little early. After hearing that both of them were going to work, she got up from the bed.
The third aunt was clearing away the dishes. When she saw Huang Yanling getting up, she quickly said: "Yanling, you haven't eaten yet, I'll cook it for you now."
"Mom, don't bother me. I have no appetite." Huang Yanling turned to look at Yan Bugui and said with a smile: "Dad, I heard that my second brother is dating a girl. She doesn't seem to have a job."
Yan Bugui was worried about this matter. Hearing this, he nodded heavily.
"Oh, if that girl marries in, how will our family live? It's true that the second brother is such an old man, why is he still disobedient?"
Huang Yanling's words touched the heart of the third aunt. The third aunt put down her bowls and chopsticks and sat down on the table: "Who says it's not the case! Your father and I stayed up most of the night yesterday because we were worried about this matter. Yan
Liberation is now so great that our words are not needed at all.”
"That's it..." Huang Yanling pretended to be unintentional and said: "Since the second brother is disobedient, what about the girl? Doesn't she have any self-awareness?"
As soon as these words came out, Yan Bugui's eyes suddenly lit up, he patted his thigh and said: "Yes, we can start with Zhang Xiaohong. As long as Zhang Xiaohong's work is completed, Yan Jiefang will have to agree even if he disagrees.
"
Huang Yanling took the opportunity to give a thumbs up: "Dad, old ginger is still hotter!"
"Of course!" Yan Bugui felt a little proud when he received the praise of his daughter-in-law. He went into the house, changed some clothes, and left the house.
....
Xinhua Bookstore in this era did not mainly sell textbooks and books. Its main business was renting books, and it also sold some equipment, such as air guns.
Therefore, Xinhua Bookstore is also busier than in later generations. As soon as it opens its doors early in the morning, there is a constant stream of customers.
As a temporary worker, Zhang Xiaohong's most important task is to put the books messed up by customers back on the bookshelf and arrange them in a fixed order. This task may not seem heavy, but it is not just adults who come to Xinhua Bookstore to read.
, more of those silly kids.
You little kid knows everything.
Zhang Xiaohong was busy in the bookstore when a voice came from outside: "Comrade Zhang Xiaohong, who is Comrade Zhang Xiaohong?"
Zhang Xiaohong put the books on the bookshelf and turned around to look, only to see a thin old comrade wearing black-rimmed glasses standing in the bookstore and shouting loudly.
According to the regulations of Xinhua Bookstore, loud noises are not allowed in the bookstore, so although there are many people in the bookstore, the atmosphere is still quiet.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The old man shouted, which shocked many people, and those who were reading all looked at him in surprise.
Two male staff members were also ready to walk over and drive the old man out.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Xiaohong hurried over, stopped the staff and said, "They are here to see me. This is the father of a friend of mine. He is old and does not understand the rules."
Zhang Xiaohong was usually diligent and had a good relationship with the staff, so those people didn't say much and just told Zhang Xiaohong to take the old man out.
Zhang Xiaohong walked up to Yan Bugui and said with a smile: "Uncle Yan, no loud talking is allowed here. Let's go out and chat."
"you know me?"
When the two came outside, Yan Bugui frowned and asked.
Zhang Xiaohong said with a smile: "Uncle, although I have never seen you, I heard Jiefang describe your appearance. He said that you were wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses with medical tape wrapped around the temples. Look at what you look like on the street.
Among many people, you are the only one like this."
"Really? You're a very careful girl." Yan Bugui nodded and looked Zhang Xiaohong up and down.
This girl has an oval face, fair skin, curved eyebrows, and a ponytail simply tied behind her head. Although her appearance is not as good as that of Ding Qiunan, Qin Huairu and Yu Li from the Siheyuan, she can be considered to be of average appearance, enough to be worthy of Yan.
liberation.
And she has a well-proportioned figure, always has a light smile on her face, and looks like a good-tempered girl. This made Yan Bugui sigh in his heart. If this girl had a job, she would really be a good match for Yan Jiefang.
"Uncle, do you have anything to do with me today?" Zhang Xiaohong originally thought that Yan Bugui came here specifically to see her. She was a little nervous at first, but when she saw something was wrong with Yan Bugui's face, she immediately frowned.
asked.
These words woke Yan Bugui up. Yes, no matter how good-looking this girl is, she is not suitable for the Yan family without a formal job.
Yan Bugui cleared his throat and said: "Your name is Zhang Xiaohong, right? My Jiefang introduced your situation. Let me tell you directly, you are not suitable for my Jiefang. You should not meet again in the future."
Zhang Xiaohong was originally thinking about how to show off in front of Yan Bugui, but when she heard these words, she was stunned for a moment.
She subconsciously said: "Why is it inappropriate?"
"Isn't this obvious? My Yan Jiefang is an official fitter, and you are just a temporary worker." Yan Bugui was a little soft-hearted at first, but when he thought about the life of the Yan family, he could only grit his teeth and said: "You marry my Jiefang,
It will definitely drag him down in the future, so you'd better give up on this idea as soon as possible."
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Zhang Xiaohong's heart hard.
She knew that Yan Jiefang was a fitter, but she never cared about it. After all, a second-level fitter was nothing at all. As a temporary worker at Xinhua Bookstore, she could earn fifteen yuan a month.
He can get more than 20 yuan in various subsidies a month. How could it be a drag on Yan Jiefang?
Because Zhang Xiaohong is beautiful, she is pursued by many people, including young people with favorable conditions. For example, a while ago, one of her cousins introduced her to a person who was a junior leader in the publicity department of the steel rolling mill.
Both salary and status are much higher than Yan Jiefang.
Zhang Xiaohong refused, because in her opinion, status and status were secondary. What was important was that the man was a good person, reliable, and motivated.
In Zhang Xiaohong's view, Yan Jiefang is such a man, so she wants to be with Yan Jiefang regardless of her family's objections.
but now.....
The Yan family actually disliked her.
Zhang Xiaohong was also a girl. She wanted to walk away on the spot, but after thinking about it, she endured it.
She will make the last effort for her love.
Zhang Xiaohong took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, looked at Yan Bugui and said coldly: "Uncle, Yan Jiefang and I truly love each other. Although I am only a temporary worker now, my father's job will be handed over to him after he retires.
Me, and because of my outstanding work, the bookstore's regular quota for this year will also be given to me, so you don't have to worry about work issues..."
Yan Bugui thought he could send Zhang Xiaohong away with just a few words, but he didn't expect that this girl was really stubborn.
Especially those who keep talking about love and love. Today’s young people are really amazing. They know what love is at such a young age.
He and the third aunt didn't know each other before they got married, but after they got married, they gave birth to four children, so marriage has nothing to do with love.
In addition, love is still something that those with status liked to do in the past!
Yan Bugui said with a straight face: "Zhang Xiaohong, I have made the matter clear to you. If you know a little bit of shame, stop pestering my Yan Jiefang!"
"You..." Zhang Xiaohong didn't expect that Yan Bugui would think of herself so much.
She suddenly gave a wry smile and said, "Okay, okay, uncle, you go home and tell Yan Jiefang that from now on, I will break up with him!"
After saying that, Zhang Xiaohong turned around and ran to Xinhua Bookstore. She wanted to find a place where no one was around before her tears shed.
"That's not bad. You don't even know who you are. You just want to entangle the liberation of my family." Yan Bugui finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, the bell rang in the distance. Yan Bugui's expression changed and he quickly rode on
Biking to the vegetable market.
Huang Yanling is pregnant and has a bad appetite recently. He has to buy two kilograms of eggs to supplement Huang Yanling's nutrition.
.....
Zhang Xiaohong rushed into the warehouse of Xinhua Bookstore and hid in a corner. Finally she couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.
She never imagined that she would only get such a result after paying so much.
Just then, a young staff member walked in.
His name is Zhang Fang, a technical secondary school graduate and an accountant at Xinhua Bookstore. He comes from a privileged background. Ever since he entered the bookstore, he has noticed Zhang Xiaohong.
On weekdays, people often introduce partners to Zhang Fang, but in Zhang Fang's view, those girls come because of his family conditions, rather than really liking him as a person.
Ever since he entered Xinhua Bookstore, Zhang Fang noticed Zhang Xiaohong.
This girl is simple, sensible, and not worldly. As a staff member, she can greet every customer with a smile.
Zhang Fang was attracted to Zhang Xiaohong for a while, but before he could take action, he learned about Zhang Xiaohong's relationship with a fitter in the steel rolling mill, so he could only suppress his good feelings in his heart.
Zhang Fang can't do that kind of thing to win love with a knife.
After Zhang Xiaohong was called out today, when she came back in, her eyes were red and swollen, which caught Zhang Fang's attention.
Seeing that Zhang Xiaohong had not come out after entering the warehouse, he was a little worried about Zhang Xiaohong, so he excused himself to the toilet and went to the warehouse to investigate the situation.
When he heard Zhang Xiaohong's helpless cry, Zhang Fang felt that his heart had been torn out by someone's hands.
He quickly rushed forward, squatted next to Zhang Xiaohong, and whispered: "Xiaohong, what's wrong with you?"
"Ah, it's Accountant Zhang, it's okay, I'm okay!" Zhang Xiaohong did not expect that at this time, someone would actually enter the warehouse.
She wiped her tears, stood up, and wanted to go back to the bookstore.
A handkerchief appeared in front of him.
"Xiaohong, if you go out like this, you will definitely be noticed by Aunt Wang in the bookstore, and she will definitely laugh at you."
Aunt Wang is a middle-aged staff member in the bookstore. She likes to gossip the most.
Zhang Xiaohong was stunned for a moment, then reached out and took the handkerchief.
