Siheyuan: Why are you all here to see me?

Grandpa said, "Jin Xin, Jin Liang, go and call your second aunt and youngest aunt over later," and the two agreed.

After dinner, we were all in the yard peeling corn, chatting while working, and the topic was all about entering the factory.

Finally, somehow my eldest cousin was persuaded by my eldest cousin's wife, and the quota was actually given to my eldest cousin's wife's brother-in-law. Since Li Gang had given the quota to someone else, it had nothing to do with Li Gang who they wanted to give it to.

The second cousin was smarter. He planned to sell the quota, but he couldn't say it now. He could only sell it after Li Gang left. He knew that one quota would cost several hundred yuan. He couldn't read a single word, and he would have to eat and live in the city. It would be better to sell it and make money. Wang Jinliang planned to go by himself, and even go to the family of the girl he liked to propose marriage. The girl's family had not been very willing before, but now he wanted to go to the city to work as a worker, so the girl would be easy to get.

So Wang Jinliang was the happiest.

Li Gang did not wait for his second aunt and his old aunt, and went back to the city first, otherwise it would be too late. After the appointment was made, they went to find Li Gang together.

Li Gang has to go to his second sister's house tomorrow. Alas, in his previous life, he had very few relatives and didn't visit each other much. In this life, his relatives are both young and old, and they are all close relatives. However, Li Gang is also relieved. Generally speaking, these relatives attach great importance to family affection. This makes Li Gang feel some warmth and he is willing to help them. After all, these days, relatives really come to help when something happens, just like Ding Qiuxia and Yi Zhonghai, they really come to help. Therefore, it is necessary to visit these relatives.

When I got home, I told my elder brother and younger sister what happened today. My elder brother also agreed with Li Gang's point of view. These are close relatives, not distant relatives. This is a society based on personal relationships, and family ties cannot be ignored.

The next day, Li Gang went to his second sister's house again. What could his second sister say? Ever since she got married, she had heard that her second sister's husband's family didn't treat her very well. Her mother-in-law was a bit like Jia Zhang, an old-fashioned person who still had feudal ideas. She believed that a daughter-in-law must serve her parents-in-law and be a maid at home. In fact, this was also her mother-in-law's personal experience, so now it was the second sister's turn.

Jiangjia Village belongs to Mentougou, 14 kilometers away from Sijiucheng. Li Gang arrived in an hour. This village is relatively large. The villagers were peeling corn in the yard. Seeing Li Gang riding a sidecar, they were curious about whose house he was going to. Li Gang had never been to his second sister's house. He only knew that his brother-in-law was called Jiang Cheng. So he stopped and found a random family and asked across the wall. The family was not bad. Not only did they tell him the location, they also took the initiative to ask a little kid to take him there. In fact, the little kid just wanted to make a motorcycle.

A few minutes later, Li Gang stopped at the gate of a house. The family was also peeling corn. When they saw a sidecar parked at their door, the little kid shouted, "Uncle, there are guests at your house."

The people in the yard were curious about what kind of guests could be in his house. Li Gang took out two pieces of White Rabbit snacks and gave them to the little kid, who left happily.

Li Gang looked towards the yard and finally saw his second sister. He was furious. His second sister was carrying a big belly and was struggling to lift a bag of corn and pour it on the ground.

Li Gang called her "Second Sister" and Li Yuan didn't care. Li Gang called her name again. She saw that it was her younger brother and burst into tears. Li Gang rushed into the yard and pulled her, "Second Sister, let's go home. The Jiang family doesn't treat you as a human being. There are so many men in the yard, but they insist on asking a woman like you to drag such a heavy bag. Let's go home, go home."

At this time, an old man with a pipe in his hand said, "From what you said, you must be Li Yuan's brother. Since you are here, come in and do it. The eldest brother, go and take the pipe."

Li Gang saw that the old man was quite polite, and since his second sister kept pulling him, he had no choice but to go into the house. The house was not very big. Li Gang sat on the edge of the kang. This old man should be his second sister's father-in-law, Old Man Jiang.

Old man Jiang said, "Since there are relatives coming, go kill the chicken and stew it." Li Gang's temper eased a little when he heard the old man was going to kill a chicken. The eldest daughter-in-law went to kill the chicken very reluctantly. Before she reached the door, she heard the mother-in-law calling the eldest daughter-in-law, "Why kill a chicken? The chicken is still laying eggs to nourish my grandson's body. Come on, just steam some steamed bread." The eldest daughter-in-law was happy and didn't go to kill the chicken.

Li Gang "Uncle Jiang, I won't eat the meal. My family doesn't need it. I just came to see my second sister. I found a job for her in the city and want her to work in the city."

"What, work, go to work in the city, my God," I don't know who said it, and Li Gang didn't care.

The mother-in-law suddenly said, "Old man, didn't your father tell you to kill the chicken? Go quickly." This time, the eldest daughter-in-law did not hesitate and went to kill the chicken. It's nonsense to exchange a job for a chicken, which is more cost-effective? Even a fool knows it.

Li Gang: "Second sister, I brought you some things, wait for me." Li Gang went out, brought a lot of bags into the house, and then started to take things out.

Li Gang: "Uncle Jiang, here are two bottles of Lotus White for you, a pack of Pegasus cigarettes, and some cakes and brown sugar for Auntie."

Old Man Jiang: "You are too polite, Li family kid."

This old lady Jiang is not polite, so she quickly put the things away.

Old man Jiang glared at his wife, but old woman Jiang didn't care.

Li Gang continued, "This is a pack of cigarettes and two bottles of wine for my brother-in-law, and milk powder for the unborn baby. I also brought you twenty feet of cloth, as well as brown sugar, rice, flour, soybean oil, pork, canned food, and White Rabbit milk candy. You can drink more brown sugar water if you are fine." The second sister was already crying. The fact that her brother from her mother's side cared about her so much made the second sister feel warm.

Old lady Jiang said, "Oh, you brought so many things. Come on, I'll help the second sister to collect them first." She came over to take the things, but Li Gang stopped her and glared at the old woman. Old man Jiang also felt that he was stealing someone, so he tapped his pipe and said, "Go back, it's embarrassing. Don't mind it, Li's boy. Rural women don't know etiquette. Second sister, this is what your brother from your mother's family brought you. You can keep it!" The second sister didn't move. She knew that even if she took it back, she would have to take it out after her younger brother left.

Li Gang: "Second sister, you are about to give birth, right?" Second sister showed a rare smile, "In two months, she will give birth, but..."

Li Gang: "What's the point"

Second sister: "The midwife said it was a girl." Li Gang understood that the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls is serious in rural areas. No wonder the mother-in-law's nose is not a nose and her face is not a face.

Li Gang: "It's okay, men and women are the same. Uncle Jiang, your family doesn't have feudal ideas, favoring boys over girls, right? Then you have to talk to the Women's Federation. This feudal idea cannot be allowed to stay."

Old man Jiang hissed. This kid from the Li family is really treacherous. He directly put a hat on him. If this is confirmed, then his Jiang family will suffer.

Old Man Jiang: "How can that be possible? This is a new society, we don't do this anymore. Old lady, go and see if the chicken is ready."

Li Gang "No need. I will be leaving soon. Today I came mainly to see if my sister is doing well and if she has been bullied. I have seen it too. Second sister, I will keep the job for you. You can go back to work after you give birth to the baby. If you don't want to go, I will give it to someone else."

Mrs. Jiang couldn't help it and immediately shouted, "Why give it to others? Since this job was given to our family, it belongs to our Jiang family and can't be given to others." Li Gang curled his lips and smiled, "I found the job, I can give it to whoever I want, you don't have the final say."

Mrs. Jiang wanted to refute, but was stopped by Mr. Jiang.

Li Gang left without eating, and before leaving he said in front of the Jiang family, "Second sister, if anyone bullies you, tell me. Our father is a martyr. If anyone bullies the children of martyrs, I will put him in jail." He then said to his second brother-in-law Jiang Cheng, "You are not a man if you don't even watch your own wife being bullied." After that, he ignored Jiang Cheng's expression, got on his tricycle and left. After he left, the Jiang family was in an uproar. Not to mention those things, those things had been put away by the old woman a long time ago, and even the can of milk powder was not given to Li Yuan. Li Yuan said that you can put away other things, but the milk powder is for the baby in your belly. The old woman said, "What are you drinking? Why is a money-losing thing drinking milk powder? Such a precious thing should of course be given to my eldest grandson." The second sister looked at Jiang Cheng aggrievedly, Jiang Cheng didn't dare to fart, but the eldest sister-in-law was laughing from ear to ear. Look, this is the difference between having a son and not having a son.

Finally, the topic of work came up. This one wanted to go, and that one also wanted to go. The Jiang family had three sons and one daughter, so it was considered a large family. In the end, the youngest and most favored son got the job.

Li Yuan: "Mom, my younger brother said that only I can do this job. If others go, I'm afraid..."

Mrs. Jiang smiled and said, "This job was given to the Jiang family, so it belongs to our Jiang family. It's up to our Jiang family to decide who gets the job." What can Li Yuan do if she can't get rid of the bigwigs next door?

Li Gang returned home and told his eldest brother about what happened to his second sister. His eldest brother was so angry that veins popped out and he wanted to go find them to settle the score, but Li Gang suppressed him and said that he had already warned him that if his second sister was bullied again, Li Gang would deal with them.

Just after the National Day, the eldest cousin, the second cousin, the third cousin and two young men came. It was said that one of them was the eldest cousin's brother-in-law, and the other was the son of the team leader of the second cousin's family. The second cousin actually sold her job, but she didn't tell me how much money she got, and she didn't sell it to her family directly, but sold it to the team leader. The second cousin and his wife are smart. The third cousin plans to go to work on his own. He has already been engaged, and will get married once the city arranges it. When the third cousin went to the girl's house to show off that day, the other party immediately agreed to the marriage when she heard that he was going to be a worker in the city, and didn't ask for a dowry. The third cousin struck while the iron was hot and rolled over the firewood pile that night, successfully getting the first blood. He is comparable to Xu Damao.

Li Gang didn't care about that. He just sent them to the steel mill and left them alone.

Li Huaide had one quota, and Director Yang had five quotas. Three were given to his uncles, two to his second aunt and his second aunt, and one to his second sister. Li Huaide wanted to deny his quota, but Li Gang couldn't do that. In other words, if you deny your debt, there will be no pork left. What could Li Huaide say? He had to accept it.

Now only the second aunt and the old aunt are missing, and the second sister's people haven't arrived yet. Li Gang is not in a hurry. If you are not in a hurry, someone else is. The first to arrive are the second brother-in-law Jiang Cheng and his younger brother Jiang Hua. The second sister didn't come. Jiang Hua is so arrogant. When he came, he asked which department to go to. It's better not to be too tired, because he can't do heavy work. Li Gang is so angry. I said that this job will only be given to the second sister. Where did you come from? You are so picky. There is no share of the job for you. What are you picking?
