Chapter 1672 Changing Jobs, How to Change Jobs

She had barely finished getting ready when her mother rushed over, shouting, "Chu Xue, you're back!"

Chu Xue saw her panting heavily: "Mom, did you run here?"

He poured her a glass of warm water and handed it to her, saying, "Have some water first."

Without any politeness, Fu's mother took the cup and downed it in one gulp.

Seeing her like this, Chu Xue asked, "Mom, would you like another drink?"

Mother Fu waved her hand and said, "Your second brother probably didn't pass the exam."

As soon as Fu's mother said this, Chu Xue knew that her mother-in-law was talking about Fu Yanwei.

Then the mother-in-law continued, "Your third brother and sister-in-law both got into junior colleges. Originally, your third sister-in-law was going to a junior college in Jinshi, but unexpectedly, your third brother's acceptance letter came, and it was also from a school in Jinshi. Now your third sister-in-law is very happy."

Chu Xue nodded: "That's really a good thing. They can rent a house off-campus and bring Jin Yi over too. That would be best for the child."

Madam Fu nodded: "What you said is what I was thinking too. Your third sister-in-law had just left before I came here. She said that after school starts, Jin Yi should stay here for a few days first, and then they will come back to pick her up on the weekend after they have settled in."

After saying that, he continued, "Your second brother and his wife have calmed down this time. I asked your second brother if he was going to take the exam again, and he said he wasn't going to take it anymore. In addition, he wants to switch jobs with the third brother."

Chu Xue frowned: "Change jobs? How?"

Mother Fu laughed: "He went to take over the purchasing department job for the third son, transferred his own workshop job, and then gave the third son some compensation for the price difference."

Chu Xue laughed and said, "You know what, that's not bad. Purchasing is tiring, but it's easier than working in the factory. You can also travel all over the country and broaden your horizons. But everything has two sides, there are advantages and disadvantages."

Mother Fu laughed: "Anyway, they live their own lives. Now that your second sister-in-law has gotten Xiao Wan's job, the two of them are very happy." After saying this, Mother Fu added: "Your school starts the day after tomorrow, and they may be a few days later. Your father's idea is that everyone should come home tomorrow night so that we can all get together. After that, you should all go back to your own lives."

Chu Xue had no objection: "Sure, I'll go earlier tomorrow afternoon."

After finishing her business, Fu's mother left in a hurry. She had been in an exceptionally good mood these past few days. Several of her children had been admitted to universities, and although her third son and his wife only got into a junior college, that was still quite an achievement.

The most important thing is that the second son and his wife benefited from this, and as long as they don't cause any trouble in the future, they will be no worse off than the other families.

As parents, what we all hope for is that our children can have a good life.

Not long after Madam Fu left, Wei Ruhua secretly came over: "How is it? Any news?"

Chu Xue nodded: "The woodworking factory in the military region is looking for a warehouse manager. You can go there tomorrow if you're willing."

Upon hearing this, Wei Ruhua's face was full of gratitude: "Yes, yes, I don't want to stay in this house for even a day longer."

Chu Xue handed her a form: "Keep this safe. Just take this to complete the formalities tomorrow. But let me tell you beforehand, that woodworking factory isn't very big, and the wages aren't as good as those at larger factories."

Wei Ruhua waved her hand and said, "Right now, all I need is a job to make a living; I don't ask for anything else."

Chu Xue realized that this girl was probably waiting for the call for reform.

Wei Ruhua looked at the watch in her hand: "Chuxue, I'll fill out this form in a bit, but I'll leave it with you for now and come to pick it up tomorrow. I'm afraid someone might steal it tonight."

Chu Xue naturally wouldn't refuse; this was her future reserve of strength.
