Chapter 207 You said this chapter, you don't treat me as your own sister
When they were almost at the school gate, Qin Yanhua remembered something important, so she pulled Zhou Gui aside and said, "There is something I want to discuss with you. Bohang applied for a house at his workplace, but it was not approved.
We used our connections and spent several months trying, but it was useless because their company just wouldn't approve it.
It is said that housing is tight now, and all units have an unwritten rule that if the family has a house, no matter the size, new or old, the unit will no longer allocate housing to it. Instead, the quota will be given to those employees who really have no house and are in need of it.
Your wedding date is approaching, and the house issue must be resolved as soon as possible so that we can arrange furniture and purchase other daily necessities.
The house we live in now has six rooms. Bohang's brothers and sisters are not at home, so the rooms are empty. Do you want to live with us?"
Zhou Gui did not respond immediately.
Qin Yanhua said: "If you don't want to, we will buy you separate houses. You can decide which district to buy it in. I like you from the bottom of my heart and will never treat you unfairly."
Zhou Gui: "I'll go back and think about it, okay?"
Qin Yanhua: "Sure, if you live with me, it will be inconvenient for you and Bohang to go to work. It will be easy for Bohang to transfer back, and we can also get you into the post office.
If you don't want to work in the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, Bohang's cousin has some influence in the Taxation Bureau, and I can find a way to transfer you there.
You have a college degree, so you have a good future, whether you work in the Post Office or the Taxation Bureau."
Zhou Gui: "I'll think about it."
Qin Yanhua: "Okay. If Arong and Acai want to join the tax bureau, I can arrange it for them."
The state will assign jobs to university graduates, but the three Zhou Rong sisters have their own jobs and usually return to their original units after graduation. They can only change jobs by making special applications to the school or using connections.
Zhou Rong said gratefully: "Thank you, Teacher Qin, for worrying about us. Let's discuss the work. Can I get back to you a few days later?"
Qin Yanhua: "Okay."
On the way home, Zhou Gui asked Zhou Rong: "Sister, what suggestions do you have about the wedding house and work?"
Zhou Rong said jokingly: "This concerns your happiness. I hope you can make your own decision, so that you won't have a hard time in the future and say that our advice was bad."
Zhou Gui said coquettishly, "You said that because you don't treat me as your own sister! You have always been the eldest sister I trust the most. No matter what you say, I will seriously consider it. If there is any problem, it will never be your fault."
Zhou Rong: "If you don't consider the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it's not a bad idea for you to move in with Shen Bohang's parents. His house is too big and the population is small. If the policy suddenly changes one day, those who don't have a house will target their family.
Shen Bohang's parents are both high-level intellectuals with a sense of nobility in their bones. They disdain to get involved with villains and are likely to suffer losses if they meet a vicious villain.
If you live with them, you can give them some advice and do things they are unwilling to do!
If you are not sure, call me and Wucai, we will help you."
Zhou Gui smiled and asked, "Is it that scary?"
Zhou Rong: "The Chen and Xu families are both experienced businessmen. If it weren't for historical factors, the wealth they have accumulated would have provided their descendants with plenty of food and clothing for generations.
Such people are very sensitive to changes in the external environment, so they would cut off their arms in order to survive and give up their family property.
We don’t have their abilities, so we can only learn from their experience and plan ahead, which is better than being helpless in the future.”
Zhou Gui lowered his eyes and thought: "What you said makes sense. Uncle Shen and Aunt Qin are upright in character. As intellectuals, they can't afford to lose face, so they are easily taken advantage of by villains.
If anything happens to them, Bohang and I won't be able to live a peaceful life. So I'll listen to you and live with Aunt Qin.
What about work? What suggestions do you have? "
Zhou Rong: "If I had to choose, I would choose the tax bureau. I would sleep with that man at night. If I saw him again at work, I would get tired of him after a while. Men would be the same.
Appropriate distance and freshness can help to warm up the relationship between couples.
Besides, you are in the tax bureau, and you have Shen Bohang's cousin to protect you, so your life will definitely be more comfortable than that in the post office."
Zhou Gui: "Well, elder sister's analysis is correct. When I see Shen Bohang in a few days, I will reply to him like this."
Zhou Cai: "Sister, what about me? Do I need to change jobs?"
Zhou Rong: "Do you want to change?"
Zhou Cai: "I am a little conflicted. Working in a cloth shop is close to home and the work atmosphere is cheerful. There are not so many constraints and it is very free.
But the tax bureau is a state-owned unit, so it sounds prestigious and seems to have a better future in the long run.”
Zhou Rong: "In fact, you already have the answer in your heart, just choose according to your heart.
There is something I want to tell you. District Chief Wang revealed to Xu Man that the organization wants to reorganize the cadre team and may arrange for cadres to take turns to go to the countryside to participate in labor.
The Taxation Bureau is a government unit and its employees will probably be arranged to go to the countryside in turns, so you should be mentally prepared.
If you don't want to go to the countryside, it's safest to stay in a cloth shop or a clothing store. I don't have any grand ambitions, and I don't want to change jobs for the time being.
If you want to change jobs, you must consider the worst-case scenario and don’t regret it or blame others later.”
The history books he read in school did not have detailed records about the 50s. Zhou Rong was worried that he would be accidentally involved in some major events and become "ill-fated", so he went online to look up information.
There will be a rectification movement next year. In view of the fact that most of the young cadres in the current cadre team have not been tempered by war, mass struggle and labor production, they lack professional talent and are easily corrupted by sugar-coated bullets.
In order to build a cadre team with class consciousness and professional ability, able to withstand risks and closely connected with the masses, the Central Committee issued three decisions on cadres' participation in labor.
By then, there will be one million cadres across the country sent to rural areas and industrial and mining enterprises to participate in labor.
In principle, you can return to the city in one or two years, and the experience of going to the countryside will help you with future promotion.
But whether you can return to the city smoothly still depends on your connections. If you are unlucky or framed, you may stay in the countryside or remote industrial and mining enterprises...
After experiencing two life and death experiences, Zhou Rong has become indifferent to many things. Career is far less important than health. Moreover, in such a turbulent time, being too ostentatious will lead to a quick death.
She is not short of money now and has no big pursuits. She just wants to enjoy life happily and live a long life. She will not consider anything that runs counter to this goal.
So, she doesn't want to change jobs at the moment.
In the clothing store and cloth shop, she was like the top boss and could make decisions on her own. If she went to other units, she would have to start from the grassroots level to gain experience.
Whether you can make it to the end is another matter.
She had finally settled down in the city and lived a peaceful life with her children and family. If she was asked to move to the countryside, wouldn't everything be back to square one?
It’s better to be safe.
If you want to make a lot of money, there will be plenty of opportunities when the economy opens up...
