Chapter 554: Family Affairs

"How about we do this? It's really too far to go to Yanjing. It's not very convenient for me to come back basically once a year. If my sister-in-law is willing, I also know people in Chengwang City. My sister-in-law has found a job.

The wages may be lower, but they are better than working elsewhere. Moreover, Chengwang City is also close to our home. It only takes more than an hour by car. If anything happens, we know people in Chengwang City and will not let my sister-in-law be bullied. Yang Dongxu thought for a moment and said.

"Chengwang City is good. Chengwang City is very close. Can you tell me what kind of job you can do?" The uncle is obviously very fond of this stepdaughter, and he is naturally very willing to work in Chengwang City.

As for my sister-in-law, a girl in her twenties, she was a bit disappointed not to be able to go to Yanjing. But after all, she was not very close to Yang Dongxu, and she felt uneasy even if she really went to Yanjing so far away. So if there is a suitable job in Chengwang City, she actually doesn't want to travel that far.

"There is a big supermarket next to Chengwang City Railway Station. My grandpa is familiar with the boss. Let my sister-in-law go and be a cashier. The salary is more than 100 yuan a month, and food and accommodation are included." Yang Dongxu said .

It is true that my grandpa knows the people in the supermarket. When Millennium Supermarket opened in Chengwang City, it was mainly because of the big boss Yang Dongxu. Although the reason given by Hu Dashan when making arrangements was that the Beijing-Kowloon Line would open to traffic next year, it would certainly not be a loss to open a large supermarket by occupying space near the train station in advance.

But the bigger reason is that Chengwang City is the hometown of his big boss. Otherwise, the provincial capital cities across the country and some well-developed cities have not yet been fully occupied by Millennium Supermarket. How could it be possible to invest in Chengwang City, a third-tier city.

But since Hu Dashan said this, Yang Dongxu didn't refuse. He opened a big supermarket in front of his house and gathered some people who could help him if anything happened at home.

So after the supermarket opened, he introduced the supervisor of the supermarket here to his little grandpa who didn't like farming and liked to do some small business, so now there is no problem at all for the little grandpa to act as a shield and arrange for someone to go in alone.

"This salary is not low, it's pretty good, pretty good." When he heard that it paid more than 100 for a month including food and accommodation, my uncle was naturally not dissatisfied.

"This salary is a related salary, and it will increase after it is completed. But don't tell others." Yang Dongxu reminded.

Nowadays, the average salary in Chengwang City is only a few dozen yuan. It is obviously impossible for a cashier to get a salary of more than 100 yuan, including food and accommodation.

"Well, how about we just follow other people's wages. If we don't do well, there's no need for your little grandpa to embarrass you. The girl can leave on her own." My uncle said a little worriedly.

People at this time are very face-conscious and rarely ask for help. Even if they ask for help for the sake of their children, they are afraid of causing trouble to others.

"How about this? First, food and accommodation will be provided and you will be paid the same salary as everyone else. If my sister-in-law does a good job, then she will get an additional salary so that no one else has anything to say. Now I am a leader in the city for half a year to see the world and learn some skills. If he and his uncle want to start a small business after getting married this year, or have other ideas, how about we talk about it then? "

Yang Dongxu didn't care if he directly offered a salary of more than 100, and neither did Millennium Supermarket. But my sister-in-law probably has a hard time getting along with her colleagues in the supermarket, so it would be better to follow the normal procedures.

As for how you are doing, is it possible to get a salary increase in the future? As long as there are no problems at work, it will be fine. When the time comes, my sister-in-law's family will have their own ideas, and I will support her with some money to start myself off.

"That's the arrangement. Let's have a drink." The uncle slapped the table and laughed.

My sister's son and grandson are capable, this is something everyone knows from all over the country. Especially my sister's village, where college students go to Yanjing to study. Since he said he would help out in the future, his daughter's life would definitely not be too bad in the future.

"I respect you, I respect you. Uncle, please sit down and drink. I, a junior like you, can't drink while you stand." Yang Dongxu held the wine glass in both hands and drank with his uncle.

After eating, three dizzy men, Yang Dongxu, and Xiaojie started to visit the grave. This is an essential part of visiting relatives during the New Year.

Of course, it is impossible for every relative to visit the grave. The graves visited at my uncle’s house were for great-grandma and great-grandma Yang Dongxu. When I go to visit the grave of the old man, I also pay it to my great-grandpa and great-grandma. One is Yang’s father’s grandfather and grandma, and the other is Yang’s mother’s grandparents. Naturally, other relatives will not have the custom of visiting graves.

After the New Year's ceremony at the grave, even though my uncle stopped me, I basically stayed behind. After carrying so many things all the way, Yang Dongxu would definitely not be willing to carry them back.

Because Yang's father and uncle both drank a lot, I had to take care of Xiaojie, a naughty kid, and watched these two adults who drank a lot. Then walking more than ten miles carrying a bunch of annual records is really exhausting.

He waved goodbye to his uncle and sister-in-law who were sending them out of the village. He led Xiaojie for a while and then carried him on his back. Along the way, he followed two adults who were swaying left and right to prevent them from rushing into the ditch. They worried all the way home. door.

Fortunately, although I was a little dizzy from drinking and couldn't find my feet, my eyes stepped on a lot of mud, but at least I didn't fall and stain my clothes. So after arriving home, my father and aunt complained a few words but said nothing.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, we went to my grandmother's house. This time, almost the whole family went out, but Yang's father did not come with us. Yang Dongxu drove the car. Uncle Shengli accompanied my aunt back to her mother's house. Yang Dongxu also had an aunt who would definitely come on the third day of the Lunar New Year, so someone had to stay at home to entertain grandpa and grandma.

This time, my brother-in-law Liu Lihong naturally followed us to visit relatives. Because he had not married his sister Hongying yet, he did not have to visit every relative now. But we must visit grandpa's and grandpa's houses.

It is also equivalent to letting the older generation meet their grandson-in-law, and other relatives will wait until the two get married. If we can come back for the New Year next year, we must visit every family.

It is definitely more relaxed to come to grandpa's house than to go to uncle's house. In his previous life, he played a lot at grandpa's house. Although he has come less frequently in this life because he went to Yanjing, he also has a few familiar friends.

So it was very lively to greet and pass cigarettes when they met, and it happened to be my second uncle's house in the city, and the people from my second aunt's house also came back together, and then there was my eldest aunt's house. Three large tables were set up in the yard to accommodate everyone. Naturally, Yang Dongxu had nothing to do at the main table. He could only eat with a group of little kids sitting on the boy's seat.

After dinner, the adults sat together and talked about family matters, while Yang Dongxu strolled around the village with a bunch of little kids following him. So the first destination he visited was naturally the small shop at the head of the village. After a little kid bought a few bags of Gangzi candy and Tang Monk meat, he ran to play happily. Only then did he feel a little relieved.

"Hey, brother, I heard that you are engaged?" After strolling around and talking to a few familiar people, Yang Dongxu returned to his grandfather's house and saw a few cousins ​​talking together. He walked over and handed them a cigarette.

The four sisters of Yang Ma had no brothers. Except for the younger aunt's family, the eldest aunt and the second aunt's family had a son and a daughter who were of marriageable age. The younger aunt's family had three girls, and the oldest was several years younger than the younger sister Dandan, so it was too early for them to get married.

The daughter of the eldest aunt married to Yangjia Village. Yang Ma acted as a matchmaker for the family that Yang Han wanted to call the second aunt in the sect. The daughter of the second aunt married to the village next to him, so that the two families still had a boy.

The idea is that if a daughter doesn't get married when she grows up, she is picking on others. If a man doesn't get married when he grows up, it means that his family is poor. However, although the little grandfather didn't like the eldest aunt and the second aunt's family very much in the past two years, after all, there is still the grandfather's family, so the grandfather's side helped to make up for it. The eldest aunt and the second aunt's family lived a good life, and the marriage was naturally arranged.

"It's arranged. We will get married after the fifteenth. Don't leave too early this year. Come and have a drink." The eldest cousin smiled and said reasonably.

"That's for sure. I will come to press the bed for you when the time comes."

Although the eldest aunt is stingy, she still acts like an elder. In the previous life, Yang Dongxu often asked the grandfather's family to run here, and the eldest aunt was in the neighboring village of the grandfather, so he naturally ran to the eldest aunt's house, so he had a good relationship with several cousins.

But later, when we grew up, we all went out to work, and we might not get together once a year, so our relationship gradually became dull.

"When will the second brother get engaged?"

"I'm not sure yet." The second cousin He Xin waved his hand.

"Then you have to hurry up. I just heard my second aunt talking to my mother about it, saying that she would help you arrange it."

"Let's talk about it later." He Xin blushed a little.

A boy in his twenties who doesn't want to marry a wife, unless it's a guy like Yang Dongxu, otherwise there is no one who doesn't want to. However, the children of poor people have grown up early, and when their family conditions are not good, they won't say anything and will only work hard. In the past two years, I have reached the age and the family background is rich, so this matter has naturally been put on the agenda.

If you are more realistic, you can say that in the past, when my family had no money, others would choose me, and now that my family has money, it is natural for me to choose others. So compared to the past when my family was poor and I didn't want to talk, now this shyness is really shy.

"Don't be too picky, my second aunt said you are too picky." He Li also said beside him.

"Don't listen to my mom's nonsense, she didn't want to. A forced melon is not sweet, right?" He Xin explained.

"She doesn't want to be willing, but our family is not bad, so we must choose someone we like." Yang Dongxu supports this second cousin.

According to the memory of the previous life, compared with the eldest cousin who succeeded once and got married, the second cousin's blind date road was much longer and dragged for several years. He was broken off three or two times, I can't remember.

However, according to the time, although it didn't work out last year, it is estimated that it will be arranged by the end of this year. The wife is a girl from the town east of Yang Dongxu's home. She is pretty and can be said to have won the beauty.
