The retired rough man dotes on his mother

Chapter 344 We Listen to You

Shen Zhensheng is going to work tomorrow and will be away for about ten days. In the afternoon, he and Xiao Baoer took the children to visit Shen's parents. Every time he and Lao Wu went to work, Shen's parents would stay at home and worry about them.

"Xiu Xiu, during the period when your school is not in session, you should live with your fifth sister-in-law," Shen Zhenjiang reminded Xiu Xiu again.

"I remember Fifth Brother. I will go live with Fifth Sister-in-law tomorrow."

Shen's mother also asked Xiao Baoer if she could do it alone and whether she should move over to take care of the child. Of course Xiao Baoer refused. She would not be living in the yard with the child, so there was no need to worry about safety issues.

"No need, mother. I have several children with me, and I have Weiwu at home. He is very powerful."

Shen's mother looked at the mighty dogs beside Dabao and Erbao. Yes, such big dogs are scary enough.

"Okay, if you're busy during the day, just send the child over. Your father and I are both at home."

After leaving the old house, Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng talked to Shen Zhenjiang and Jiang Yuqing separately about buying a house, asking the couple to discuss it before buying.

"Third sister-in-law, are you planning to move to Beijing if you have the chance?" Jiang Yuqing asked.

Jiang Yuqing was originally an educated youth who went to the countryside from Beijing, so naturally she wanted to return to Beijing.

"Yes, I have a feeling that things will get better in a few years. For the sake of these children, your third brother and I will have to move to a big city. We will continue to buy houses in Beijing and other cities. You two can also worry more about this."

"Third brother, third sister-in-law, we will buy it with you."

Xiao Baoer nodded. Even if she didn't live in the house she bought now, she would still make some money by selling it, and this money would far exceed the price of the house.

Shen Zhenjiang and Jiang Yuqing had more than 70 yuan in their hands. It was only the early s and the price of a courtyard house in Beijing was only about yuan. So they decided to save up a fortune by buying one house at a time.

"Buy it. Lao Wu, hang out with your third brother more often. There are some things I can't tell you directly, but you can follow your third brother's lead in doing things."

"Okay, sister-in-law, we'll listen to you."

After returning home, Xiao Baoer was still talking to Shen Zhensheng about the house. They had to invest the money in the house decisively before everyone reacted. In a few years, houses would not be so cheap anymore.

The children were already taking a nap, and the two of them wanted to take a rest as well, but before they could fall asleep, someone knocked on the door.

"You go to sleep, I'll go see who's here," Shen Zhensheng got off the kang and went to open the door.

"Linzi, Dagang, Damiao, you are all here," Standing outside the door were Shen Zhensheng's colleagues and their wives.

"Brother Sheng, you don't have to go to work this afternoon, so we thought of coming to your house to express our gratitude to your sister-in-law in person," Dagang said politely.

Shen Zhensheng welcomed them into his home. Just when they were standing at the door, they could already feel the grandeur of the house. The decoration inside was even more magnificent than it looked from the outside.

Shen Zhensheng led them into a room specially used for entertaining guests, and even made some sweet water and brought a plate of cakes. "Drink some water to warm your bodies first. My wife is in the room trying to coax the child to sleep. I'll go call her."

As soon as Shen Zhensheng left, these people stood at the door and looked around the yard of Shen Zhensheng's house. The room for receiving guests was in the front yard, and Xiao Baoer and her family lived in the back yard. The two yards were separated by a wall, and the door left there was round.

"This yard is so grand. How much money must it cost?" Dagang's wife kept saying, her eyes full of envy.

"I heard from the captain of our transport team that this yard cost about one or two thousand to build, and the food they feed the workers is better than what we usually eat."

Xiao Baoer was getting ready in the house, so Shen Zhensheng came out alone to entertain them. "Drink more water, my wife will be here soon."

"Hey, okay, Brother Sheng, you're welcome."

"Brother Sheng, you guys are living a really good life in your village. I just saw a brick house in front of you at the door. It's not like our village, where every household is poor."

"That house belongs to Laowu. It's a new house he built before he got married last year," Shen Zhensheng poured them some water while chatting.

Xiao Baoer also came out of the house. The child was asleep and would not wake up for the time being.

"This is my wife, my wife, this is Da Miao, this is Da Gang, this is Lin Zi, and these three are their wives."

"Sister-in-law, thank you so much for your trouble," several people stood up and thanked politely.

Xiao Baoer greeted them warmly with a smile on her face, "You're welcome, you're welcome, please sit down and let's sit down and talk."

When Lin Zi and the others saw Xiao Baoer, they finally understood why everyone in the transport team said that Brother Sheng's wife looked like a fairy. No one had ever seen a fairy, but they had certainly never seen someone as beautiful and as sweet-talking as Sister-in-law.

"Zhensheng told me about the situation. There are now forty or fifty workers in the factory, some from this village and some from other villages. Are you from the same village?"

"Yes, sister-in-law, the three of us are from the same village. As soon as my husband came home and told us about it, we came together to see it," replied Da Miao's wife.

"If you can all come to work, you'll have a companion. The factory provides lunch for people from other villages. How about this, you try working first, and if you're suitable, I'll tell you some of the factory's rules."

"Husband, take everyone to the factory. Our son and daughter are asleep. I'll look after them at home. Otherwise, you won't be able to comfort Manman if she wakes up," said Xiao Baoer.

"Okay, I'll take them there."

"After the test, just come to my house with Aunt Song Yun to find me."

After Shen Zhensheng took them to the factory, Xiao Baoer went back into the house. The children were all sleeping in the house, and she felt uneasy without watching over them.

They had been at the factory for quite some time, and when the child woke up and was eating, Shen Zhensheng took them and Aunt Song Yun home.

"Son, you guys are awake now. Are the cookies mom brought you delicious?"

"Delicious, this sandwich is delicious, Dad wants to eat it too."

After eating, Shen Zhensheng said to Xiao Baoer, "Wife, Auntie and Linzi are here. Go over and discuss it with Auntie Song Yun."

Xiao Baoer asked Dabao to take her two younger brothers to eat, and after eating they could go to the toy room to play with toys. She and Shen Zhensheng carried Tuantuan and Manman to the guest room.

"How do you feel about the factory? Can you get used to it?"

Lin Zi's wife was full of excitement. "I can get used to it, sister-in-law. Your factory is really big, and there are many people working there."

“It’s okay if you can get used to it.”

Xiao Baoer and Aunt Song Yun stood aside. She listened to Aunt Song Yun's opinions. Aunt Song Yun was quite satisfied with these three people. They sewed quickly and well, and were very serious when working.

"Okay, then stay. Just keep an eye on it during this period."

Xiao Baoer went into the house again and told them that they could come to the factory to work tomorrow. She also told them some of the factory rules. If they violated these rules, anyone would have to leave the factory.

Another thing is to explain to them clearly about the factory's salary payment. They need to learn how to keep accounts and reconcile with the factory accountant on fixed days every month.

"Sister-in-law, can the aunts and sisters-in-law in the factory earn 20 yuan a month? If we have more money, we can build a room for our children."

Xiao Baoer smiled, "In the factory, the more you work, the more you get paid. You get paid for each piece of clothing you make. The more diligent workers can earn dozens of dollars a month."

Several people's eyes lit up when they heard this. If they could earn dozens of dollars a month, not only would the burden on their family be reduced a lot, but they could also send their children to school.
