Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

At this moment, in the courtyard.

Chang Mei was a little anxious, circling the persimmon tree and occasionally looking up at the gate.

He kept muttering to himself, "Why isn't he back yet? Didn't Xiao Kun say he went to find someone?"

Liu Meifen was getting dizzy from her nagging, and glared at her eldest daughter: "Shut up, your brother knows what he's doing, we'll just wait."

Chang Mei glanced at Li Jun, who was fidgeting on the stool, and pursed her lips: "Who wouldn't be anxious about something like this? I'm counting on Li Jun for the rest of my life."

"Pah, pah, pah, what do you mean by the rest of your life? Your father and I used to worry every day about how to feed Xiaoqing and the others, but we've made it through... Don't worry, even if this job doesn't work out, Xiao Kun can find another one."

Chang Mei pouted: "That's what I say, but it's still frustrating to have my job taken away."

"Don't block it anymore. I smell that Xiaobao has pooped again. You wipe him clean. I'll go see what else we can get him to eat, otherwise those little girls will be hungry again tonight."

Seeing this, Yang Lijun quickly stood up: "Mom, let me help too."

The little girls had just gotten home, and before they could even sit down properly, they ran out to play wildly again.

They were overjoyed to finally get a day off.

Xiao Shui had originally planned to go back to the village to show off her city life to her old friends, but after visiting the graves, she went straight to her second aunt's house and didn't even get to see her friends.

She was such a young child that she didn't understand that after entering the city, her former friends would eventually drift apart. Even if they didn't call Xun Ge'er "Master" as exaggeratedly as Runtu did, they would no longer be people from the same world.

In later generations, a Beijing residency permit became a barrier that prevented countless talented men from getting married, and countless beautiful women were forced to give themselves to men for the sake of this piece of paper.

……

After drinking with Director Zhu and Director Ge, and thanking Director Ge repeatedly, Chang Kun hurried home.

I didn't expect to be able to help my brother-in-law solve his job problem today, but I didn't expect that Old Ge, the factory manager of the cannery, would be so accommodating and settle the matter directly.

What's even more surprising is that the job title was changed directly to a delivery driver.

This job has a high status in the factory, is easy, and pays far more than ordinary workers.

The eldest sister will definitely jump for joy when she hears this!

"Big sister, brother-in-law... I'm home!"

As soon as I entered the courtyard gate and greeted them, Chang Mei rushed up to me carrying Xiao Bao and kept asking me questions.

"Xiao Kun, how's it going? How's the work interview going?"

Hearing the noise, Liu Meifen and Yang Lijun ran out and stared at Chang Kun expectantly.

Chang Kun chuckled, then nodded emphatically without keeping anyone in suspense.

"Wow! You're really something, bro!"

Chang Mei was overjoyed and jumped up and down three times, making Xiao Bao cry.

Instead of comforting Xiaobao, she happily kissed his little face several times.

Yang Lijun's hands trembled with excitement as he patted Chang Kun's shoulder twice, his eyes slightly red.

"Xiao Kun, thank you so much!"

The matter of finding a job has been weighing on his mind for a long time since he returned from military service.

I thought it would be arranged quickly, but a week passed, then two weeks, and there was still no news.

The longer it went on, the more depressed he felt. Eventually, he sighed almost every day, and his family members also stopped smiling.

Later, my father found out that his job had been taken by the brother-in-law of a bureau chief, and he was almost in despair.

They had no power or influence, and their jobs were taken away, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

Even today, upon learning that his newly reunited aunt's husband is a minister, his heart is bursting with joy.

The difference between a minister and a bureau chief is like night and day.

With just a word from her second aunt's husband, the bureau chief would have no choice but to obediently return his job.

But his wife, Chang Mei, didn't mention this to her second aunt's husband at all; she just said to let her younger brother, Chang Kun, try it out first.

He also knew that since his second aunt had just reunited with her family, she was embarrassed to offer to help.

He had already made up his mind that if Chang Kun couldn't help, he would shamelessly ask his wife to ask his second aunt for help. As for work, it really was his hope for the rest of his life.

With a mix of trepidation and excitement, I saw Chang Kun nod, indicating that the job had been secured.

He felt completely lightheaded, and he now had a job in the city!

The family will no longer have to worry about going hungry in the countryside!

Just as his eyes were reddening with excitement, Chang Kun spoke up again: "Big sister, brother-in-law, however, that job is a little different from your brother-in-law's previous job."

Yang Lijun was taken aback, then quickly waved his hand: "Xiao Kun, that's alright. As long as we can work in the city, we're not afraid of hardship or low pay. I'll work harder, and I won't be any worse than others!"

He thought that his previous job was still not sorted out, and that he had just been given a slightly less desirable position.

Chang Mei also advised, "Being able to work in the city is already a great achievement; we can't ask for too much."

My father, my father, and my uncle and aunt—so many people have come to the city to work. No matter who they are, the changes are huge.

I feel more confident now, and I speak and act with more conviction.

She just hoped that her husband could also go to the city, no matter what job he did, it would be much better than farming!

Liu Meifen refused to accept this. Having worked at the supply and marketing cooperative for several months, she knew all too well that the job one starts with determines one's entire future.

"What's wrong, Xiao Kun? You can't get your brother-in-law's job back? I'll go talk to your second aunt. We can't let our own family members suffer!"

Chang Kun smiled gently: "Mother, eldest sister, brother-in-law, there's no need to go to Second Aunt. Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? I've already taken care of the work."

He recounted his drinking session with Old Ge, the cannery manager, leaving the three of them speechless.

"What? You were drinking with the factory manager just now?"

"You still know that bureau chief who stole our job?"

"Hey! What did you say! Make your brother-in-law drive the car!!"

As Chang Kun spoke, Chang Mei exclaimed in surprise, her eyes wide, upon hearing that Yang Lijun had been assigned the position of driver at the factory.

All three of them stared wide-eyed!

Even Chang Mei, a woman who has lived in the countryside for many years, knows what a driver means at this time.

It's fair to say that, aside from managers, drivers are among the most sought-after jobs for workers!

In addition, these days jobs are passed down from generation to generation, so with this job, Yang Lijun and Xiaobao are all set for life!

"Xiao Kun! This, this..." Yang Lijun's mouth trembled, and he couldn't finish his sentence.

Chang Mei burst into tears of excitement. The days of not having enough to eat would never come again; good days were just around the corner.

Seeing that his elder sister's husband was about to express his gratitude again, Chang Kun quickly waved his hand and said, "I didn't do anything. I just gave the cigars that my second aunt's husband gave me to the cannery manager. Besides, my brother-in-law should have a job anyway."

"Look at what you're saying! Not all jobs are the same!"

Liu Meifen beamed with pride; her son-in-law working as a driver at the cannery made her incredibly proud.

My son is so good! He's only been gone for less than two hours and he's already taken care of such a big thing!
