Quickly wear the boss and don’t be cannon fodder

Su Yan helped Zhu Zhen analyze that there are still nine years before the college entrance examination is resumed.

It is obviously unrealistic to take the college entrance examination. If she does not want to get married in the short term and can help her family, it would be best for her to find a class to attend.

But nowadays, jobs are individually assigned, and many recruitment advertisements are only visible to internal staff. If you don’t have any acquaintances, you may not get any recruitment information at all.

Working in the fields is even more unsuitable for her. Zhu Zhen looks like a thin and small girl. What kind of physical work can she do? She can only earn four work points a day by picking grass for pigs.

Su Yan felt that the most suitable job for her was to be a teacher. She was about to graduate from high school and would have a high school diploma. Unfortunately, teaching was such a hot job that she no longer had any chance.

The educated youth who went to the countryside fought hard for the position of teacher, and now it has been decided.

Even Chen Jiao competed for the village teacher position, but unfortunately she lost to Li Zhiqing, who married the village party secretary.

Sometimes having connections makes things much easier.

Zhu Zhen is suitable for working, but unfortunately it is difficult for her to find a job.

If she really wanted to reduce the burden on her family, Su Yan thought that going up the mountain to collect mountain products was a way.

Even if we can only sell it to supply and marketing cooperatives or purchasing stations now, it is better than working in the fields.

But this is just her thought. She feels relieved when she can get mountain products, but others may not feel the same.

Since she hasn't graduated yet, Su Yan suggested, "Get your diploma first. During this time, I'll ask your brother to help you keep an eye out for any recruitment information from nearby factories."

Zhu Zhen nodded, and then said: "I am not afraid of hardship, I can do any job."

Su Yan: "I know, you don't have to worry. If you can't find a job for the time being, you can always go up the mountain with me to collect mountain products. Maybe you can find another wild ginseng."

Zhu Zhen: "I dare not think about it. It takes great luck to find one."

Su Yan smiled and said nothing. She remembered that there was a kind of ginseng in the medicinal field in her space, and there was also an undeveloped chaotic area in the space. The medicinal herbs grown in it were more or less contaminated with some spiritual energy.

When Zhu Bin came back in the evening, Su Yan told him about Zhu Zhen.

Su Yan: "You study as much as you can, but you also need to keep your ears open and listen to the news passed on by the drivers. You may get some useful information. Your sister will graduate soon and she wants to find a job. It would be best if she can work in town. She can also help the family and reduce the burden on them."

Zhu Bin: "Yes, I will, and I will ask someone to help keep an eye on it."

Su Yan: "Well, go to bed early."

Zhu Bin felt satisfied when he saw Su Yan coaxing his daughter, but he felt a little disappointed deep down.

He was very happy about Su Yan's change, but he always felt that something was missing.

It has been almost three months since the child was scalded, and they have never done anything more intimate than holding hands.

He didn't know why she didn't show any rejection, but he just knew that she was unwilling now.

Her body language told him that now was not the right time and she was not ready.

Zhu Bin would not force her. When she was willing, she would take the initiative to get close to him.

The couple slept on a kang, but there was still room for another person in the middle.

Before dawn, Zhu Bin had to get up and pack up to go to town to work as an apprentice. Su Yan saw that he had wasted almost three hours on the road going back and forth. It would be great if he had a bicycle.

Su Yan handed Xiaobao to Yang Dan to take care of, and she and Zhu Zhen went up the mountain to collect mountain products together.

Zhu Zhen was very surprised. She didn't expect her sister-in-law would take the initiative to ask her to go together.

Su Yan said, "You don't want to reduce the burden on your family. You can only earn about the same amount of work points as a half-grown child by picking grass for pigs in a day. It would be better for you to go to the mountains to find something to eat."

Zhu Zhen said uncertainly: "But at this time of year, are there any mountain products for us to pick? I have been to the mountains at this time of year before, but there are few wild mushrooms at this time, and the weather is hot, so it is easy to get heatstroke. It is better to pick grass for pigs."

Su Yan smiled and said, "That's true, but because of the hot weather, other people don't want to go up the mountain, but we are willing to go, so the probability of picking up something is naturally greater. Moreover, there is not only more game at this time, but also fatter game. It tastes much better than the game when the snow melts in the spring."

Zhu Zhen: "Can we catch him?"

Su Yan: "Just follow my instructions, I guarantee you'll catch him."

Zhu Zhen: "Okay, I'll try my best."

The two of them went up the mountain carrying backpacks and wearing straw hats.

Along the way, some people saw their outfits and asked them if they were going up the mountain to pick mushrooms.

Zhu Zhen answered all the way, but Su Yan spoke very little.

Someone kindly advised: "How can there be mushrooms in such hot weather? There has been little rain recently, so don't waste your time."

Someone else laughed and said, "If you don't pick up anything, you'll get a heat stroke, which is not worth it."

When facing these people, Zhu Zhen just smiled and said nothing.

After climbing the mountain, it was hot and stuffy, and the two of them couldn't stop sweating.

Su Yan led Zhu Zhen into the mountains. Zhu Zhen was a little worried and reminded her, "Sister-in-law, are we going deep into the mountains? After passing this stone tablet, we will be deep in the mountains. It is very dangerous inside."

Su Yan: "Don't worry, we won't go deep, we'll just walk around a hundred meters."

Zhu Zhen thought about it and thought that it would only take about 100 to 200 meters to go deep, so there shouldn't be any problem.

The main reason is that there is really nothing worth picking in the front mountain. Even wild vegetables are almost invisible. Any edible ones have already been plucked by others, so there is no time for them to pick them.

Su Yan took Zhu Zhen to a patch of weeds and made a gesture to Zhu Zhen.

Zhu Zhen instantly became alert, came up to her, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong, sister-in-law? Is there a wild beast?"

Su Yan pointed to the bushes and whispered, "There are pheasants in there. Do you know how to use a slingshot and aim?"

As he spoke, Su Yan took out a slingshot and a few stones.

Zhu Zhen quickly said, "I can't do it. I don't have the accuracy."

Su Yan had no choice but to say, "Then take these big rocks and throw them in that direction. It doesn't matter whether you hit them or not. Just throw them in that direction."

Zhu Zhen was puzzled and asked, "What is this for?"

Su Yan smiled and said, "We are trying to scare them out. The grass is so deep, what if there are snakes in it? We won't go in."

Zhu Zhen: "Oh, I see."

The weeds are indeed very dangerous. You don’t know what kind of snakes, insects, rats or ants are hiding in them. It’s best not to rush in presumptuously.

Zhu Zhen took the stone and threw it hard in the direction Su Yan pointed.

Sure enough, after one stone was thrown, a pheasant was scared and flew up.

It made two clucking sounds before being hit by Su Yan's slingshot and falling down.

"Keep smashing!"

Zhu Zhen continued to throw stones, and two more pheasants flew out. Su Yan almost always hit the target. Zhu Zhen's eyes were as big as copper bells. His sister-in-law was so accurate that she was definitely a sharpshooter.

After throwing a few more stones, no pheasants flew out and the grass returned to calm. Su Yan found a thick stick and walked towards the direction where the pheasant had just fallen while cutting the grass.

Zhu Zhen did the same, using a wooden stick to beat the weeds on both sides to prevent snakes from coming out and biting people.

The two walked over and took a look. They saw not only three fat pheasants, but also two nests of pheasant eggs.

Zhu Zhen was overjoyed. He carefully packed the pheasant eggs, tied the pheasant's feet, and threw it into the backpack.

Like her brother, she took the initiative to put the things into the backpack and prevented Su Yan from carrying it.

"Sister-in-law, just put the eggs in your backpack to prevent them from being crushed by pheasants."

Su Yan smiled and said, "These are other people's eggs. How could they crush their own children?"

Zhu Zhen said shyly, "Anyway, let me do the physical work. If Big Brother knew that I asked you to do the heavy work, he might scold me."

Su Yan: "I'm not as delicate as you think. If you want to carry it, just carry it. Anyway, there are still many things to carry later."

Zhu Zhen: "Well, anything else?"

Su Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.

Zhu Zhen doesn’t know yet that her sister-in-law’s luck and strength are far better than she imagined.

Going up the mountain once is enough for their family to eat for a month.
