Chapter 80 He had the desire to steal but not the courage.
Even after the general meeting of the entire compound had ended, the residents were still discussing it.
The way things unfolded was beyond everyone's expectations.
These days, everyone understands how rare it is to have a permanent job.
But Qin Huairu actually found a job!
Moreover, they not only found a job, but they were also allocated housing!
Where the hell can I go to seek justice?
……
The front yard, the Yan family's house.
Yan Jiecheng sat on the stool angrily, glaring at his elderly father, Yan Bugui.
"Dad, even Qin Huairu can find a job!"
"And Yu Li went to work too!"
"Give me the money, and I'll find a proper job!"
Everyone in this courtyard has a job except him. How will he ever face anyone again?
Yan Bugui sat up straight and said in a serious tone, "Boss, I agree that you want a formal job!"
"Master!"
Yang Ruihua was getting a little anxious.
It's not easy for a family to save money. Giving away hundreds of dollars for a job, when will they ever get their money back? And if something unexpected happens, will they even be able to make ends meet?
If Yan Jiecheng were the only child in the family, Yang Ruihua wouldn't be so conflicted.
But there are four children in the family!
Yan Jiecheng's family paid for his job search.
After that, the second, third, and youngest sons also needed money from the family. Even if they were sold, they still couldn't raise that much money!
In response to Yang Ruihua's attempt to engage, Yan Bugui calmly raised his hand and waved it off.
"Understanding this is the important matter!"
When Yan Jiecheng heard Yan Bugui say this, he felt particularly comforted, thinking that his father had finally realized how important it was to find him a formal job.
"But..."
Under Yan Jiecheng's delighted gaze, Yan Bugui suddenly took a turn.
Yan Jiecheng's face immediately fell.
"Dad, do you just not want me to be happy?"
"I have a stable job, and our family's monthly income will be higher. Any money we spend now, we can earn back later!"
"You always say that you won't go poor from eating or dressing, but you'll go poor if you don't plan ahead!"
"Can you stop focusing on these paltry sums and start thinking about the bigger picture?"
Yan Jiecheng was furious.
Yan Bugui, however, remained calm throughout. He slowly spoke, saying, "Boss, look at you, you're so impatient. Can't you just let me finish what I have to say?"
As he spoke, Yan Bugui raised his hand and gently tapped the table.
Yan Jiecheng glared at the other person, then said dejectedly, "Fine, go ahead and say it. I'm listening to your excuses!"
"Jiecheng, I don't like hearing that!"
"How is that considered making excuses?"
Yan Bugui started arguing with Yan Jiecheng about the wording.
Yan Jiecheng remained silent, only staring intently at him.
Finally, Yan Bugui steered the conversation back to business, continuing, "I have no objection to finding you a job and providing the funds!"
"Of course, you'll have to pay this money back to your family after you start working. You don't have any objections, do you?"
"No, I promise, I'll send money home every month after I start working!"
Yan Jiecheng immediately perked up.
But Yan Jiecheng quickly lost his spirits again, because Yan Bugui said that he could pay the money, but where could he find this job opportunity?
Yan Jiecheng originally hoped that Yan Bugui could handle everything at once.
But now, he has to find a job himself. If he could find one, he wouldn't be arguing about it here.
"See? You don't even have a goal, and you want me to give you money to find you a job? Where am I supposed to find one for you?"
After going through many twists and turns, the matter returned to its starting point.
Yan Jiecheng looked at Yan Bugui and finally spoke again, but this time he looked at Yang Ruihua and said, "Mom, why don't you go ask Qin Huairu where she found her job?"
"Boss, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Qin Huairu went to a garment factory; they know how to use a sewing machine. Can you do that?"
Without a second thought, Yang Ruihua retorted.
Yan Bugui added fuel to the fire, saying, "I reckon this matter might be related to Xiao Shen from the back room!"
"Think about it, Yu Li hadn't been working before, and suddenly she's working, and at a food factory at that—a good company!"
"Dad, do you mean that Shen Zhishou helped Qin Huairu find this job opportunity?"
"I'd guess it's pretty close!"
Yan Bugui nodded vigorously. "When Yu Li wasn't at work, she was very close to Qin Huairu."
"Shen Zhishou cares so much about Yu Li. This must be because Qin Huairu is having a really tough time, and Yu Li couldn't bear to see her suffer, so she begged Shen Zhishou!"
"If this is true, Xiao Shen's connections are quite formidable!"
Yan Bugui was somewhat envious.
However, their family and Shen Zhishou were destined to never be close.
"Dad, should I go and beg Yu Li for help?"
Yan Jiecheng recalled how pleasant his relationship with Yu Li had been. Although they couldn't be husband and wife now, it wasn't his fault. Even if they couldn't be lovers, they could still be friends!
"You mustn't!"
Yang Ruihua quickly interjected, "Shen Zhishou doesn't seem easy to get along with. If he thinks you still have feelings for Li, do you think he'll let you off the hook?"
"If this won't work, and that won't work, what will happen to my job?"
Yan Jiecheng suspected that his parents never intended for him to have a formal job; ultimately, they just didn't want to spend money. Unfortunately, he had no proof.
"This can't be rushed!"
"I'll talk to Shen Zhishou about this later and see what he thinks!"
"You should go out and look around more, see which factories have posted job openings. You can't just stay at home all day waiting. The neighborhood committee has some openings, but they won't just throw them at you!"
Yan Bugui's words were reasonable and well-founded.
Yan Jiecheng had no choice but to agree.
However, he was in a much better mood than before. At least his parents had relented this time. As long as he found a suitable job opportunity, there would be hope.
……
While the Yan family was discussing Yan Jiecheng's job, Qin Huairu covered the sleeping Xiaodang with a blanket before leaving the house and heading straight for the front yard.
"Sister Qin, you're here! Come in quickly!"
Yu Li opened the door, saw Qin Huairu, and happily pulled her into the house.
Shen Zhishou was boiling water to prepare a foot bath when he heard the sound. He peeked out and then sat back down in front of the stove.
The two women were chatting, so he didn't go over to join in!
As for Yu Li's suggestion to have Qin Huairu follow him, Shen Zhishou was still hesitant and hadn't made up his mind.
This kind of thing is like an arrow shot from a bow—there's no turning back.
Once you take that step, you have to consider everything that follows!
He wasn't some kind of overpowered genius or a crooked-mouthed dragon king; he was just an ordinary person who wanted everything but had all sorts of concerns.
Commonly known as having the desire to steal but not the courage to do so!
The old saying is very true.
One wrong step can lead to eternal regret; by the time you turn back, a hundred years have already passed!
Sleeping with women is a momentary pleasure!
But in this day and age, lifestyle issues are also a critical problem!
In future generations, if it's a mutual agreement, and something goes wrong, they can simply part ways and go their separate ways.
But in this day and age, those spittle spurts can really drown a person!
