Qin Huairu returned to the room and whispered: "Mom, don't be so tight on the stupid pillar in the future."
Mrs. Jia Zhang said coldly: "What's the matter? Isn't he going to do it if he wants to?"
"Well, he can really encourage us. Let's do this for now."
"Then let him roam the streets so freely and let you work to death by yourself?"
"Don't worry, I have already planned it. Our family will never raise idle people!"
"If you are looking for an excuse to divorce him, at least wait until you get the house in Yuyu. Now that the stick is getting bigger and bigger, it is a bit inconvenient to live in the same house."
"I know, Mom, don't worry about it. If you're angry with him, just say less to him. Stop blocking the door and scolding him. I asked someone yesterday. He really can't find a formal job in his situation.
, speculating and reselling food stamps is something he doesn’t want to do, so he can only wander around."
Jia Zhang sighed.
"Well, I know you have an idea, so I won't care. As long as we don't suffer a loss, you can do whatever you want."
Silly Zhu wandered outside for another day, and as expected, he failed to find a job.
This time, in order to avoid Mrs. Jia Zhang blocking the door and scolding her again, he did not return to the courtyard until almost eleven o'clock in the evening.
As soon as I walked in, I saw that Lin Zhen was still awake and was playing with the shrimp pots with the third uncle Yan Bugui at the door.
It seems that he is going to the lake to fish and catch shrimps tomorrow and Sunday.
Silly Zhu's heart moved, and he immediately came over.
"Uncle San, Lin Zhen, this shrimp pot is pretty good. Look how even the mesh is."
Yan Bugui chuckled and said, "Silly Zhu, you are really capable of boasting, so much so that it's all over your head."
Lin Zhen laughed and said: "He is having an awkward chat. He is looking for something to talk about when he has nothing to say. It is an awkward chat."
"Awkward chat? Eh? That's a good word. It's a new word."
Silly Zhu chuckled: "Hey, don't make fun of me. You two are going fishing tomorrow?"
"Well, how's your job search going?"
"Hey, don't open the pot and lift the pot. If I can find a job in Sijiucheng, the sun will come out from the west. Alas, I won't be able to find a job tomorrow and Sunday. I can't stay at home. I can't stay at home with you.
How about going fishing?"
Yan Bugui shook his head repeatedly when he heard this, "Oh no, no, no, you don't even have a bicycle, why are you following us?"
Lin Zhen smiled and said: "It's okay, you can ride my tricycle and play with me tomorrow, but as promised, I will give you three meals, and I won't give it to you no matter how much fish or shrimp you catch."
Upon hearing this, Shazhu said happily: "Okay, okay, no problem. By the way, don't tell Huairu, I just want to hide away tomorrow."
"Don't worry, I just took you to relax. Seeing how worried you are, you don't dare to enter the house at night. Remember to get up early tomorrow!"
"Sure, I'll get up before dawn!"
Every year when the twelfth lunar month approaches, Lin Zhen and his third uncle Yan Bugui go to the countryside.
Just to go fishing for New Year’s Eve food, this time I plan to go there for a day. The location has been chosen. I have packed a day’s worth of dry food. I will set off tomorrow morning and come back after dark.
Yan Bugui was very reluctant to let Shazhu follow, but Lin Zhen said it and was embarrassed to refuse again.
"Lin Zhen, why do you have to bring Silly Zhu with you?"
"Hey~ Mr. San, if you want to have fun, let him follow you, and he can also help with the work. Anyway, he won't report us for not doing our job properly. Since he is a street kid, he can't be busy looking for work every day."
It was dark the next day.
Lin Zhen and Yan Bugui each rode a bicycle, and Si Zhu pedaled a three-wheeler.
The fishing gear, net bag, lunch and a thermos of hot water were all placed in the tricycle and covered with a quick cloth.
The three of them just set off towards the wilderness.
After dawn, Qin Huairu still came to Shazhu's room first when he got up.
I fell asleep yesterday and didn't see him come back. I originally wanted to tell him not to look for work today, Sunday, but to clean up the stalls in the two houses.
As a result, he opened the door and saw that Si Zhu was not at home.
Qin Huairu thought that Sha Zhu had gone out to look for work again, and was a little moved.
Silently helping Shazhu tidy up the house.
Qin Huairu didn't rest immediately after dark. She hadn't seen each other for two days. She wanted to wait for Silly Zhu to come back and have a good talk.
I hope that Silly Zhu will not break the bank, quickly cheer up, put down his dignity, and even find a dishonorable and irregular job, as long as it can support his family.
As a result, it was not until after ten o'clock in the evening, when her mother-in-law Jia Zhang and her three children were asleep, that Qin Huairu heard Silly Zhu's laughter coming from the front yard.
"Today is the happiest day for me in the past two years. Alas, when I don't think about anything, I feel so comfortable. I will be like this from now on, as much as I like!"
Lin Zhen smiled and said: "Okay, stop talking. You took the initiative to go with us, we didn't force you to do it. Don't blame us at home."
Yan Bugui also smiled and said: "You didn't even provide fishing gear or bait, but you did your best. We can only provide you with three meals, and we can't give you fish. Let alone uncle San, if my sister-in-law knows that you went fishing with us,
Shrimp, it must be my fault."
"Hey! It's okay, it's okay, I understand, I understand!"
Silly Zhu said and went back to the middle courtyard. When he turned around, he saw Qin Huairu standing coldly in front of the entrance to the hall.
Lin Zhen and Yan Bugui were dividing the fish. When they saw Qin Huairu, they both pursed their lips and said nothing, and winked at Si Zhu to tell him to leave quickly.
The bucket of the tricycle was already full and there was no water at all. It was almost half the stall selling fish, which shows today’s harvest.
Qin Huairu looked at the fish and felt unspeakably sour in her heart.
He glared at Silly Zhu fiercely and turned to go home.
Silly Zhu sighed and returned home helplessly.
Yan Bugui would not generously give fish to Silly Pillow. If Silly Pillar had played with him for a day under normal circumstances, Lin Zhen would have given him some fish.
But I really can’t give it today. Silly Zhu just went to hide and play. Do you want to give the fish to the Jia family to eat? What are you thinking!
Although I caught a lot of fish, Liu Yuhua, Aunt Yi, and Aunt Liu's family didn't have much, and not a single fish scale would be given to the Jia family.
Monday the next day.
Silly Zhu thought that Qin Huairu would definitely blame the fact that he followed Lin Zhen and Yan Bugui for a day of fun yesterday.
In the end, Qin Huairu just gave him a dime with an expressionless face and told him to find a job. He didn't say a word about the rest. When Jia Zhang came back in the evening, he didn't follow suit.
The days passed by so slowly.
Twenty days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.
The Chinese New Year is only fifteen days away, and Si Zhu has not found a job yet.
On this Sunday morning, Qin Huairu opened Shazhu's door.
"The family has no money anymore. I gave you all my savings in pieces. Banggeng should pay the tuition in the fall, but he hasn't paid it yet. Teacher Ran will definitely come to remind you during the New Year. If you really can't find a job, why don't you go
Let’s try Baocheng and see if your dad can arrange a job for you.”
Silly Zhu frowned and said: "I won't go. He hasn't come to see me for so long since I was released from prison. Why should I go to him?"
"How can you find a job if you don't go there? Are you just going to hang out like this?"
"If you can make it, let it pass. If you can't, then pull it down. Anyway, I'm not going to protect the city!"
Although Silhu felt guilty for not being able to find a job, he knew in his heart that he had only been idle for less than a month. Even if he earned 10 cents a day, he still spent less than three yuan. Why did he have no money?
"I'm married to you in name. In fact, in the whole Jia family, you are the only one who comes to see me every morning. The other four people just roll their eyes at me when they see me. It's a boring life. I don't want to go there again."
It’s too embarrassing to find a job, just do whatever you want!”
Silly Zhu suddenly gave up his career, and it was not a sudden awakening.
It was the subtle influence of the people around him during this period of time.
No matter it was the deaf old lady, He Yuyu or Aunt Yi, they all intentionally or unintentionally told him to rest and stop fussing.
During this period, I had a heart-to-heart talk with Lin Zhen, and Lin Zhen only said one thing, 'You have the time to ask me, why not go home and sleep, what are you doing?'
Now when he heard what Qin Huairu said again, Shazhu immediately put down his picks and went to bed without saying anything.
Qin Huairu frowned and said coldly: "Okay, if you don't want to go, I will go. I am the daughter-in-law of the Jia family and also from the old He family. I will ask him if he will return to the courtyard when he gets older? Will he still recognize you?
This son?"
Silly Zhu pursed his lips and said helplessly: "Didn't you say you have no money? How can you have money to buy a ticket? Forget it, you have to go as early as possible, otherwise you will not be able to catch the long-distance bus back."
Qin Huairu went home and prepared, and actually went to the long-distance bus station.
There was no way, Silu Zhu couldn't find a job, so she had to think of other solutions.
First go to He Daqing who protects the city. If it doesn't work, let Silly Zhu go to the backyard to make trouble. If you can make money, it's best. If you can't make money, it will break the father-son relationship between Silly Zhu and Feibiao. It's better not to give the house to the backyard.
Qin Huairu took the long-distance bus to Baocheng with her little calculation in mind.
She had already asked Yuyu about He Daqing's address.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Huairu found He Daqing.
He Daqing did not go to work on Sunday.
After lunch, I was sitting on the stone at the gate, basking in the sun and listening to the radio.
Turning around, he saw Qin Huairu walking quickly.
He Daqing frowned and muttered in his heart.
'I just received a letter from Yuyu a few days ago. Zhuzhu was fired from the steel rolling mill and he can't find a job. Why is this guy here?'
Although He Daqing has never returned to Sijiu City, he has kept in touch with Yuyu. He knows all the major events that have happened in the courtyard since he last returned to the city.
For him, it doesn't matter who Silu Zhu marries, as long as he can live on. Anyway, since he has a son, he can live in his ancestral home.
If you can't find a job, then you can't find one, as long as you don't starve to death.
"Hey! You are a rare visitor. What kind of wind brought you here?"
He Daqing stood up immediately, his eyelids drooped, as if he hadn't woken up.
Qin Huairu quickly smiled and said, "Don't say that, it's offending me. I'm here to ask you something."
"You think too highly of me. I'm just running away from home. How can I help you?"
Qin Huairu smiled awkwardly, "I'm married to Shazhu. You know this, right?"
"Well, I know. I'm just waiting to have another grandson. When you have another grandson, I'll go back to visit you immediately."
"Uh...it's so difficult at home now. Even those who eat glutinous rice can't even untie the pot. How can I afford to get another one? I don't know if you've heard that Si Zhu was fired from the steel rolling mill. He has been looking for him for a month.
He has found a job, but none of the units in Sijiu City want him, can you help him to work here?"
He Daqing chuckled, "I'm sorry, I can't. If you think he's dragging you down, just kick him out. I support you!"
