Chapter 378. Biased
Lin Qing He called Eldest Sister-in-law the next day.
She tid it when Eldest Sister-in-law ca back from the field.
On the phone, she heard Eldest Sister-in-law talk about the duck matter. She caught 30 ducklings back to raise.
Lin Qing He smiled and said, "Yang Yang and Wu Ni will have a vacation after the college entrance examination. Eldest Sister-in-law, do you have ti to ask them if they want to co over here for sumr work? At that ti, they will be paid. Let them use it as living expenses during college."
"No need to pay them. It’s good that their food and drink are taken care of over there." Eldest Sister-in-law cheerfully responded to this.
She was delighted to let her eldest son go to the capital city and explore the big city. For young people like her son, it would do them good.
The two sisters-in-law chattered so more before Lin Qing He brought up that she wanted Gang Zi to co to the capital.
Eldest Sister-in-law hesitated and said, "What about Sheng Qiang’s side?"
"Don’t mind Sheng Qiang. Those who co to my side must work hard." Lin Qing He said.
Eldest Sister-in-law understood that she didn’t like Shengqiang. But it wasn’t surprising to Eldest Sister-in-law. First Sister’s eldest son was indeed raised wrongly. He won’t even pick up a fallen broom.
Besides getting her son to send the roast ducks over, Lin Qing He had never personally visited First Sister for so many years.
Eldest Sister-in-law, who had a good relationship with First Sister, had occasionally gone over these years.
Xu Sheng Qiang was really disappointing. He wasn’t down to earth.
So after hanging up the phone, Eldest Sister-in-law asked Eldest Brother to ride the bicycle over to Second Sister to talk about it.
The bicycle at ho was originally borrowed by Third Brother. But later on, he bought a new one himself. This one continued to be used by the old Zhou’s house’s side.
Second Sister-in-law often complained back then.
After it was returned, her mouth was plugged.
Eldest Brother ca over to his second sister’s place. He passed Lin Qing He’s ssage and asked Gang Zi if he would want to go to the capital to help?
Second Sister had yet to say anything when Gang Zi, who happened to be at ho, jumped up: “I’m going. I’m willing to go!”
The darkly tanned young lad, Gang Zi was going mad with joy!
He wanted to go with his third brother to their aunt’s shop. At the beginning of this year, he wanted to go with his third brother, but his mother didn’t allow it. She said that there were no vacancies over there and not go over go over and cause trouble. Still, it didn’t make him give up.
He thought, maybe his uncle and aunt would co back this sumr? They always ca back in previous years.
If they co back, he’ll go over to ask his uncle and aunt to see if they could take him.
Even if there was no salary, it was all right!
Why Gang Zi yearned to go to the capital? It was because his third brother had bragged about it when he ca ho for the New Year.
He said that the place in the capital was spacious. He lived in a high-rise building. And the food! They ate at, eggs, and fish.
Usually, there were three als a day and New Year dinner couldn’t match with it.
It had Gang Zi envious to death. So he made a racket about watching shop even without pay. Just provide him with food. He would definitely serve all the guests well!
It was useless. Second Sister didn’t agree.
Compared with First Sister, Second Sister was clear-minded.
One of her own sons had gone over. Food and accommodation were covered as well as the salary was paid. Another going over was too much.
Two such big lads. How much food was required? How could Second Sister dare to let another go?
So no matter what Fourth’s wife thought, she responded back then, no need to think about it.
However, she didn’t expect Lin Qing He to call back and ask. Second Sister was happy but she couldn’t help but hesitate: "Is there really a shortage over there? This stinky boy can’t be full without a few bowls of rice."
"I...I can eat less!" Gang Zi blushed. A blend of black and red. He quickly said.
Eldest Brother laughed, "Since Fourth Sister-in-law has spoken, then she can afford to. Once you’re there, you don’t need to eat less. Eat like normal. You won’t really put your uncle into poverty."
His expression displayed hesistation.
Second Sister spoke: "First Younger Brother, if you have anything to say, say it directly."
Father Zhou and Mother Zhou gave birth to First Sister and Second Sister first. Then it was first son, Eldest Brother. After Eldest Brother Zhou, it was four sons in a row. Only then, it was Zhou Xiao i at the end.
"First Sister wants Sheng Qiang to go over, but Fourth’s wife did not agree." Eldest Brother told.
Second Sister understood then but she didn’t care very much. When she went back to her maternal ho with her during the New Year, her eldest sister did ntion it. Although Second Sister had a good relationship with her eldest sister, she didn’t agree with it.
She knew what this nephew was like. He wasn’t suitable for watching the shop. What if he fights with people. Doing business was quite particular. Harmony creates wealth.
"First Younger Brother, you don’t have to worry. Whatever Qing He decides, whatever goes. If First Sister can think it through, that’s great. Forget it if she can’t." Second Sister responded.
Although Eldest Brother felt that this wasn’t good, he couldn’t say anything. So he went back.
Gang Zi was very overjoyed: "When Zhou Yang and the others go to the capital, I will go with them!"
Second Sister warned: "You have to work hard for when you go over there. If I find out that you dare to act lazy... You will definitely be sent back by your aunt!"
She knew that her maternal niece Liu Ni was sent back. This maternal sister-in-law wouldn’t hold back.
"If I go, then I will definitely work hard. Aunt will definitely not send back." Gang Zi declared.
He did have so worries and said, "I just don’t know if Aunt will send to school too?"
He had heard from his third brother that he and Cousin Er Ni were attending evening classes. Aunt will also check their progress.
Second Sister amusedly scolded: "You should be smirking that your aunt is willing to promote you. And you still dare to be worried?"
Fourth Sister-in-law was direct. But have to say, Second Sister understood. She didn’t request a penny to train her son. She let him go to night school to increase his knowledge. This was truly a biological aunt.
Otherwise, who would so idle to pay the tuition in vain and bother to give guidance?
"Once you’re there, listen to your aunt. Even if you get sent to school, you have to go to study. That’s a big city. How can you get anywhere without any knowledge?" said Second Sister.
"Okay." Gang Zi responded.
He was almost the sa as his third brother. That is, he only achieved the third grade. His third brother had actually caught on so well now, so he shouldn’t be worse than his third brother.
It wasn’t easy to hide such a thing. What’s more, it was impossible to hide it. That’s why, the next day, Second Sister ca over to tell her eldest sister.
She also hoped that her eldest sister will not have knots in her heart.
But how could First Sister not have knots in her heart?
Fourth’s wife was also a little bit biased. Gang Zi didn’t say that he wanted to go and she called back to tell him to co. Her son, Qiang Zi wanted to but she didn’t accept him.
