Chapter 776 Knowledge Brings Changes in Destiny (Part 2)

With the help of the men in the family, Mother Zhou stopped guarding the things. She walked to the door and said to the four people there: "How is it? My daughter is pretty capable of being a future in-law, right?"

"You can do it! I couldn't be more capable!" The middle-aged woman was almost drooling, and her face was about to burst from laughter: "We, the Wang family, are so lucky to have such a good wife!"

"No, don't say that!" Zhou's mother hurriedly waved her hand, "You have also seen that my daughter is a worker in the city. Does the Shanghai Film Studio know about it? It is the state-owned company that makes animations! My daughter is Work there! She wants to have a big future, and she won’t be a yellow-faced woman in the countryside!"

"Aunt Zhou, you...didn't you just..." The young man was anxious, his face was red, and his speech was a little unclear.

"I didn't promise you anything just now, did I?" Zhou's mother ignored him, pointed to the pile of new year's goods behind and said to the middle-aged men and women: "Future in-laws, you have to think clearly. If Xiao Wang marries my eldest son, , then I can give them a bicycle, a sewing machine, and even a TV! But my daughter will never marry your son. She is a person with a great future! If you want to, just do it. If you don’t agree, These good things can only be used cheaply by girls from other families!"

"I agree! I agree!!" The young woman quickly agreed before her family could speak.

What a joke!

My sister-in-law can make so much money. She can buy bicycles, sewing machines and TVs for the whole family in one year's work, as well as bring back cars from the factory. How can I not quickly curry favor with her?

As for eldest brother...how can a toad eat swan meat?

The young man was very unhappy after hearing what his sister said. Just as he was about to say a few words, Zhou Jing came over.

"If my brother and sister-in-law get married, our family will give them a gift of 500 yuan."

The little woman only said this, but even the future sister-in-law's parents' eyes turned red.

What is the current concept of 500 yuan in rural areas?

In a remote place, it's two years' income. Even here in the countryside, it's one and a half years' income.

To be realistic, this 500 yuan gift alone is enough for the eldest brother of the Wang family to go to Qu's wife.

"Apart from 500 yuan, these things are also considered as betrothal gifts." After a moment's hesitation, Wang's mother pointed to the car and said her price.

"Aren't you crazy about money, are you?" Mother Zhou took the initiative at this time, and immediately let out a bad breath: "My daughter brought so many things back for the New Year, you want to take them all? You let us drink during the New Year? Northwest wind? Just what I just said! You can take away the bicycle and sewing machine, but leave the TV set for the young couple!"

"Mom..." The young woman immediately grabbed her mother's arm, "There are so many good things, is that enough? As long as you take these two things back, other girls will like them!"

The Wang family's mother looked at her husband and found that he was already smiling. Only her son was a little unhappy, but he was also jealous of the things in the car.

"Inside the betrothal gift, I will also give you a Huhai brand watch and two large Qianmen cigarettes." Zhou Jing wanted to end the matter quickly, so she increased the stakes again.

Zhou's mother almost didn't stop her daughter's mouth. Why are you giving her something so easily? Grind slowly and negotiate terms slowly! Don’t our families need Huhai brand watches?

The Wang family noticed Zhou's mother's displeasure, but they were also surprised to get an extra watch and two more high-end cigarettes.

"Well, since the in-laws are so sincere, let's let this be settled!" Wang's father pretended to be cheerful, but he didn't notice his son's blue face at all.

Son, I am doing this for your own good!

Such a good girl, can anyone like you?

She is still a girl from the Chu family in the village. She has big butt and fat body, which is perfect for you!

…

After all the things were piled up in the yard and the driver Lao Wu was sent away, everyone was shocked to find that almost half of the yard had been laid out.

Zhou Jing took her younger siblings and handed them two packs of White Rabbit milk candies, assorted candies and a few packs of large candies at the front door, asking them to give them to the children and neighbors who came into the yard to play. ——In rural areas, there are no barriers. There are not so many taboos about going to other people’s homes and breaking into people’s homes.

The children couldn't hold it back. They just opened the candy wrapper and ate it. The sweet milk taste was so wonderful...

The adults who received the cigarettes also thanked them profusely. Firstly, Daqianmen cigarettes are still very expensive. Secondly, this also represents Xiaojing's feelings.

"Haha, Xiao Jing is really promising!"

"Yes! She is the only college student in our village, how can she not be promising?"

"Shanghai is such a nice place, Xiaojing will live there from now on, I'm so envious..."

"..."

As the saying goes, people carry people in a sedan chair, and when Zhou Jing gave them gifts like this, the neighbors naturally didn't hesitate to say a few good words.

Zhou's mother and Zhou's father were a little unhappy at first, but after hearing everyone's praise, they began to feel comfortable and felt that their daughter had really given them a face.

Face is one thing, but the pile of New Year's goods piled at home is even more beneficial.

Especially when they saw that there was a bicycle, a sewing machine, a watch, two radios, and two cameras, the Wang family suddenly became a little uneasy. Mr. Wang kept pulling at his mother's clothes, hoping that she would order more things for him.

But the Wang family's parents have long since lost the airs they used to force the Zhou family. When they meet such a daughter-in-law, what do they dare to say?

He is from the city, he is a worker in a big factory, and he can earn more money, so he should be more flattering, so that he can benefit the Wang family in the future. If there is a falling out today, what else can be done? ?

"I looked at the sky and thought it was going to rain tonight. You and I will move these things home first." Zhou Jing ordered her eldest brother, younger brother and younger sister, and then raised her head and said to the Wang family's parents, "Uncle , Auntie, have things been settled? If so, it's getting late. You should take your things and go home early, lest it gets dark and it becomes difficult to walk... My sister-in-law will stay with me today. Sleeping, okay?"

She said the last words to the daughter of the Wang family.

"well!"

The future sister-in-law nodded hurriedly, but she was thinking in her heart that she must ask her sister-in-law to give her a camera. Oh my God, this is really like a dream!

After speaking, Zhou Jing took out a thick stack of banknotes from her bag, counted half of them and handed them to Wang's parents, "500 yuan, please click on it."

The third set of RMB is used now, and the maximum denomination is only 10 yuan. It is not like in the future, where you only have to count five large bills.

"no, I'm fine!"

The Queen Mother, who had just watched Zhou Jing counting each one, grabbed it and stuffed it into her pocket. With a smile, she directed her husband and son to push the 28-type big bicycle, with the sewing machine leaning against the back seat. Then he put the watch and cigarettes into a pocket and left Zhou's house with a smile on his face.

Ren, the boss of the Wang family, was reluctant in every possible way, so he could only leave in anger.

Before leaving, he looked at Zhou Jing, but found that she didn't look at him at all, which inevitably made him feel more depressed.

At this time, a group of villagers saw that the Wang family had left and were about to go home, but Zhou Jing stopped them.

"Uncle Huang, Aunt Cui...please inform everyone that you will come to my house for a simple meal tonight. It's almost the Spring Festival, and we are all having fun!"

"Hey! Okay!!"

The several people were overjoyed and hurriedly agreed to run out to inform people. Only a group of furry children were left eating sweets and laughing.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhou's mother hurriedly tugged at her daughter's clothes, "There are more than fifty households and more than 200 people. How much does this cost?"

"Mom, when I went to school, the folks collected 35 yuan for me. Have you forgotten?" Zhou Jing said calmly, "Although the school has to pay living expenses, I can't forget this love." No. Besides, now that I’m back home in fine clothes, I’ll treat them to a meal, which will make you look good, isn’t it?”

Zhou's mother was in a daze. For a moment, she felt that this daughter was a bit strange, and her whole body exuded a light of confidence. Could this be the change that working in the city brought to her?

"Xiao Jing is right. Now that you have gone to college and found a good job, you should celebrate." Zhou's father became more generous at this time, "I definitely can't sit at home, but I can sit in the courtyard by the pond. I'll go find it." People set up temporary canopies to prevent rain from disturbing the atmosphere."

"Time is a little tight, but there is no need to make it so grand." Zhou Jing took out the remaining 500 yuan from her bag, "Dad, take this money and ask Uncle Tu and the others to cook well." I’ll help you buy some wine, meat, fish and vegetables, and prepare eight dishes and one soup for one table, is that enough?”

"How can we use so much?" Father Zhou swallowed, "One table... 10 yuan is more than enough."

He originally wanted to say five yuan for a table, guaranteed to have chicken, fish and meat. These things are produced in the countryside, so how could they be expensive?

But considering that my daughter finally came back and wanted to bring honor to her family, she might as well be a little extravagant.

Watching Zhou's father go out, Zhou Laoliancheng hurriedly followed him with his future wife. Now was the time for him to show his worth. Otherwise, how could his second sister take more care of him?

Zhou's mother was really unhappy. She saw her youngest daughter and son carrying things happily into the house. She pulled her daughter and said, "How much money have you earned? Why are you so lavish as soon as you come back? I heard that Lin'an The salary in the city is only forty or fifty yuan a month! Is the salary in Shanghai so high?"

Zhou Jing knew her mother's character. When she saw no one around, she opened the backpack she was carrying and took out a thick stack of money: "Mom, take this 1,000 yuan, what's the use of it at home?" Just use it, I can build a new house for my family next year!”

Mother Zhou held the money as if she were holding a hot potato, and she was trembling a little, fearing that it would fall. Her mind was filled with excitement and panic at the same time, fearing that this was just a dream.

"Our factory is different." Zhou Jing pulled her and sat under the eaves. "It is the best animation film studio in China and even Asia, so there is a big company in Xiangjiang, and we are here Cooperate, hire our people to work for him in Xiangjiang, and then help him produce cartoons in the factory so that they can be sold to countries such as the United States and Japan!"

"So awesome!?" Zhou's mother felt incredible.

"Your daughter and I were selected because we are good at drawing and entered into the cartoon "Oolong Yuan" produced for them... Well, it will also be broadcast in our country in a while. You can watch it on TV." Zhou Jing continued: "Because of this, my salary and bonus are much higher than others. The average salary in our factory is now more than 100 yuan. After I joined the animation production team, I can earn more than 200 yuan a month... during the Chinese New Year The bonus and new year’s goods add up to 1,800 yuan!”

"1800!? Bonus!?" Mother Zhou's eyes widened, a little scary.

"Well, this time I came back. In addition to the New Year's goods, I brought 2,000 yuan. You also know the use." Zhou Jing said.

"Don't you keep some for yourself?" Zhou's mother suddenly felt sorry for her daughter, "Where can you find anything without money in a big city? ... How about you take 500 yuan back?"

"No need." Zhou Jing quietly looked around again, "Mom, the factory has already decided. After the Chinese New Year, I will go to Xiangjiang to work with the teachers in the factory! I heard the wages there are higher. , I can get 3,000 yuan a month!"

"Boom!"

Mother Zhou suddenly lost her seat and fell to the ground.

She ignored the pain and jumped up, grabbed her daughter's hand, and said excitedly: "Really? Really? Are you really going to Xiangjiang!?"

Mainland people in this era, especially people in the countryside, have extremely beautiful imaginations about Xiangjiang. In everyone's mouth, it is paradise, the coveted rich land, the kind where gold is everywhere.

Not to mention 1981, even in 1992, wasn't the song "My 1997" written by Ai Jing also full of longing and beautiful imagination?

"Yes, after the New Year, I will go back and prepare for the trip in a few days." Zhou Jing laughed, "Mom, I have good news to tell you... I only need to stay in Xiangjiang for two years and return to the factory. If so, they will give you, my dad, my brother, brother, and sister all the household registrations in Shanghai City, and you can live in the city!"

"ah!!!"

Zhou's mother shouted with excitement.

She was almost fifty, but she screamed like a child.

Can your whole family become city dwellers? Become a Shanghainese! ?

Mother Zhou immediately felt that sending her daughter to study was the right decision!

Coincidentally, seeing her mother so happy, Zhou Jing also thought to herself that it was a very right decision for her to study hard.

The teacher is right!

Knowledge can really change your destiny!

In order to make the life of the family better and better, I must work harder after arriving in Xiangjiang! !
