Chapter 160 The sensation caused by a piece of paper
After hearing the story, Yang Jun suddenly felt envious of Yang Anguo.
This boy is quite famous for a time, and he can choose any girl from the surrounding villages.
Tsk tsk.
It has the style of our old Yang family.
Ma Xiangxiu, who was sitting nearby, blushed and said nothing, burying her head in her neck.
She felt a little inferior. She felt that marrying into the Yang family in this way was inferior.
She was wondering whether Yang Jun's family would look down on her.
"Congratulations, your lovers finally got married." Yang Jun was the first to congratulate.
"Yeah, you two don't have to be sneaky anymore." Wang Yuying teased at the side.
In a few words, the matter of Yang Anguo's draft was summarized by everyone as the two were childhood sweethearts, and they just took the opportunity to work in the city, so they got together, so it was a natural progression.
Ma Xiangxiu blushed and cast grateful eyes at them.
At this time, Yang Anguo reached into his cotton-padded jacket and took out a crumpled piece of paper and handed it to Yang Jun.
"Brother, this work certificate is useless. I will give it back to you."
Yang Jun was stunned, took the piece of paper with body temperature and asked doubtfully,
"Why isn't it useful? Your brother doesn't want to come to the city to work?"
"My brother also wanted to come, but I refused to let him go. He said that he would cause trouble to you by dragging your family with you, so..."
Yang Jun felt a sore nose when he heard this. His second uncle was like this. He would rather live a hard life in the countryside than bother his elder brother's family.
Come to think of it, rural people are so particular.
Yang Jun had already secured a job quota for his family. If another son dragged the family there, it would be troublesome. Therefore, he would not let his eldest son, Yang Anbang, go there even to death.
Yang Jun knew that because his second uncle was so particular, even if he sent this work certificate back to his hometown, his second uncle would not let Yang Anbang come.
"Then you can exchange this job quota for money to support your family."
Yang Anguo chuckled: "Brother, let me tell you, at that time, the village secretary of our village, Wang Dayan, wanted to spend fifty yuan to buy this quota for his son, but I refused."
"Brother, that's fifty yuan. It's enough for me to work for two years."
When he thought of the fifty yuan, Yang Anguo suddenly felt distressed, as if he had missed a hundred million.
Yang Jun looked at the wrinkled work certificate.
Knowing that his second uncle Yang Dong had hesitated, hesitated, and struggled, he could also understand his second uncle's mood at that time.
He wanted his eldest son to go to work in the city, but he was also afraid of causing trouble to his sister-in-law's family; he wanted to exchange his quota for money, but he was also afraid of being looked down upon, so he was very conflicted. In the end, he had to return the quota.
Yang Jun could imagine the sensation that a job quota would bring to a small mountain village.
This is no longer as simple as a job. It is a status symbol and the dividing line between urban and rural people. This is not only a matter of face, but also a top priority regarding whether you can have enough to eat.
He could imagine how eager and crazy the villagers were for this job, and I'm afraid his second uncle was often invited to drinks during this period.
Why.
He didn't want to cause a murder because of this piece of paper.
Yang Jun thought again and again, stood up, picked up the kettle on the stove, and stuffed the piece of paper into the stove.
But just when he was about to burn the work certificate, he saw a thin figure rushing over.
Ma Xiangxiu held Yang Jun's hand tightly to prevent him from burning the paper.
"Brother, can you... give me this job quota?"
Yang Jun looked back at Yang Anguo, and then asked,
"You want to go to work?"
Ma Xiangxiu shook her head quickly: "I'm not going to work. Life in my hometown is miserable. I just want... to let my brother come to work."
After Ma Xiangxiu finished speaking, she let go of Yang Jun's hand and took a few steps back with a blushing face.
Yang Anguo was also stunned by Xiangxiu's actions, but he immediately reprimanded Ma Xiangxiu.
"Xiangxiu, you forgot that when you come, I won't let us cause trouble to my brother. How come you forgot so quickly."
Ma Xiangxiu's face turned red, tears welling up in her eyes.
"I...I just saw it as a pity that it was burned, and I didn't want to cause any trouble to my brother."
Yang Jun could also understand Ma Xiangxiu's actions. Anyone who saw his work certificate and was about to be burned would stop him. Not to mention Ma Xiangxiu, even Wang Yuying looked at him reproachfully.
However, if you think about it, you will understand that the reason why the Ma family married their daughter to the old Yang family was not to live a better life, not to want their son-in-law to help their family.
Marriage is a combination of interests. Who would do something that is not cheap? Not to mention losing face by sending your daughter to your door in person.
It is reasonable for Ma Xiangxiu to think about her mother's family.
If she can win this job quota, her mother-in-law's family will think of her forever, and if she has trouble with her husband's family in the future, her mother-in-law's family will also be able to help her find a place in her future.
Yang Jun pulled Yang Anguo aside and reprimanded: "It's no trouble, don't listen to your second uncle for everything. You are also a married person. You and Xiangxiu will have to live together in the future. Don't be immovable."
If you don't, just scold Xiangxiu, she is your aunt, not your servant."
Yang Jun turned around and handed the work certificate to Ma Xiangxiu and said,
"Xiangxiu, we are all a family, and we should help you. Send it back tomorrow and let your brother go through the procedures quickly."
Ma Xiangxiu did not pick it up, but looked at Yang Anguo timidly.
But his eyes were full of pleading.
"What do you see him doing? I gave it to you, and you do it." Yang Jun said displeased.
Yang Anguo saw that Yang Jun was angry, so he nodded towards Ma Xiangxiu.
"Brother gave it to you, just take it."
When Ma Xiangxiu heard this, she immediately said excitedly: "Thank you, brother."
Taking the job certificate with both hands, Ma Xiangxiu took out the handkerchief from his pocket, carefully wrapped it, put it in his close pocket, and covered his pocket nervously.
At this time, Wang Yuying brought five or six steamed buns and a plate of spicy cabbage from the kitchen.
"It's too late, so I won't touch the pot. You can just eat some."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This afternoon, Wang Yuying did not touch the pot, so she could only heat the leftover rice from the morning in the pot and serve it.
After all, it's almost eleven o'clock now, so I won't be using the pot in the middle of the night.
Yang Anguo coyly refused at first and said he had eaten. After being kicked by Yang Jun, he sat down to eat honestly.
Not to mention, people in rural areas generally have larger appetites than people in cities. Not only Yang Anguo can eat it, but also the skinny Ma Xiangxiu.
The two of them were like starving ghosts, grabbing the cornstarch and gnawing on it.
In just a blink of an eye, the two of them finished eating the leftovers.
Yang Anguo ate four of the six steamed buns, and Ma Xiangxiu ate the remaining two.
"belch!"
Yang Anguo drank warm water in big gulps, pretending to be full.
Yang Jun rolled his eyes and kicked him.
"Let's do this tonight, and I'll take you to have a nice meal tomorrow."
If Yang Jun didn't know his appetite, he would really have been deceived by him.
This kid has eaten four roast ducks, six kilograms of flour pancakes, and twenty white-flour steamed buns. Although he ate them with his second uncle Yang Dong, on average, he had a large appetite.
"Hehe, brother still understands me." Yang Anguo scratched his head and smiled sheepishly.
Yang Jun raised his wrist and saw that it was getting late. He had to go to work tomorrow, so he prepared to go back.
"You two go live at my place, my place is spacious."
There is no room to live in the old house. Although there is a vacant room in the new house, it is reserved for Yang Mei as a wedding room, so it is not suitable for them to live there.
Therefore, we can only take them back to our place.
Before leaving, the family sent them to the gate of the compound.
Wang Yuying warned Yang Anguo.
"An Guo, this is the city, it's not as casual as the countryside. After entering the factory, everything will be subject to your brother's orders, do you understand?"
Wang Yuying was afraid that Yang Anguo, a stupid boy, would cause trouble to Yang Jun, so she had to give him a few words of advice.
"Auntie, my elder is just like you, he told me to listen to my brother in everything. Hey, don't worry, I am determined to listen to my brother."
Wang Yuying looked at Yang Anguo's frizzy look and worriedly took Ma Xiangxiu's hand again, saying,
"Xiangxiu, take more care of your man from now on and don't let him get into trouble. The city is not the country. It's okay for us to keep our tail between our legs."
Ma Xiangxiu listened to Wang Yuying's words and assured her seriously,
"Auntie, don't worry. When it comes, my eldest brother told me to take more control of him. If he doesn't listen, he asked me to write a letter and tell him. He said he would take the train overnight to whip him."
Yang Anguo felt a little embarrassed after being told that he was being controlled by his aunt, so he kept urging him to leave.
"Why are you talking about this? I didn't make any mistakes, so why are you worried about me?"
"You brat, listen to your wife."
Wang Yuying patted him and urged them to go back.
The three of them got in the car, said hello to them and left.
