Chapter 50

Could she be suspecting that she was faking her illness?

Bai Xiuxiu’s first reaction was this, but she quickly thought that it shouldn’t be the case. Now that the autumn harvest was over, there was no need for the headman’s wife to come and talk to her about faking her illness.

Besides, she said it was good news.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? Is something wrong?” Chen Jinhua saw that she wasn’t saying anything and was immediately worried.

Xiuxiu was a good-looking girl, and her personality wasn’t bad either.

The other day, her son said that she had given her an egg. She knew how to be grateful for even small things.

If it weren’t for that, she really wouldn’t have remembered Bai Xiuxiu.

Bai Xiuxiu went over all the major events that had happened this year in her mind, and she had a guess. She immediately sighed: “I’m still the same. I can’t do any heavy work. I’m worried, what will I do with the work in the fields next year?

Although my husband can help me, he can’t do everything by himself.

People who know that I’m not feeling well will understand, but those who don’t will think I’m lazy.

If this gets out, it’ll be a disgrace!”

She spoke with a grievance, and Chen Jinhua nodded: “That’s right. I heard your mother-in-law talking bad about you outside. I’m not trying to stir up trouble between you and your mother-in-law, but I just think you need to be careful.

But don’t feel bad. I’m here today just for your troubles.”

Chen Jinhua took another sip of brown sugar water. Her family wasn’t small either.

Brown sugar water was precious. Although their family was doing well, she couldn’t afford to drink it all the time.

“What is it? Sister-in-law Jinhua, tell me quickly.” Bai Xiuxiu asked eagerly.

Chen Jinhua then continued: “The women’s director of our brigade is here from the commune to gain experience. There’s a vacancy in the Women’s Federation of the commune this year, and she’s going back in a few days. Once she leaves, the director’s position will be vacant.

It will be my turn.

The Women’s Federation in the whole brigade will also change, and there will be one vacancy.

Most people in the village don’t know about this, but the higher-ups want someone who can read. The headman also thinks the same, someone who can teach everyone, so they don’t make a fool of themselves when they go to meetings.

Although the three villages are all part of the same brigade, we live close together and are from the same village. I have to think of you first.

I remember you went to junior high school?”

There weren’t many people in the village who had finished junior high school, and even fewer girls had.

Chen Jinhua said this, and Bai Xiuxiu’s heart skipped a beat.

It was this matter!

Now, looking at Chen Jinhua, she felt very close to her. She took Chen Jinhua’s hands and expressed her excitement: “Sister-in-law, I did finish junior high school. I graduated from junior high, but I didn’t continue to high school because something happened at home.

But I’ve been studying.

You can rest assured, if you give me this job.”

Bai Xiuxiu didn’t want to be humble. Being humble would be a huge loss!

Although she knew that her husband would become successful in the future, and she was reborn, but future events couldn’t solve her current problems!

She didn’t want to work in the fields, but in a couple of years, if she stayed at home all day, something would definitely happen!

Labor is glorious. If she didn’t work, wasn’t she asking for trouble?

But… she really couldn’t do any work.

She had already thought about it. After they split the family, she would go to the city and see if she could buy a job, something easy! Wang Qinghe and the space would take care of the family.

But this surprise came out of nowhere!

Seeing her confident expression, Chen Jinhua laughed: “I like a confident girl like you. I’ll help you get this job. Your sister married well, and you’re also a military family member. Now you’re not feeling well, and your family isn’t here.

Your mother-in-law always talks bad about you behind your back. If we arrange you to the Women’s Federation, no one will say anything!”

“Sister-in-law Jinhua, I don’t know how to thank you for this. Later… I’ll definitely have my husband go find your youngest son and have him bring the thank-you gift over.” Bai Xiuxiu’s voice was very low.

Chen Jinhua was even happier to hear this.

Why did she go to Bai Xiuxiu? It was because her son said that she was grateful.

Don’t underestimate the Women’s Federation of the brigade. It’s small, with only a few people, but there’s a lot of work!

She was arranging Bai Xiuxiu to go, so Bai Xiuxiu would be in the same boat as her.

In the future, she would help her. Besides, Bai Xiuxiu’s brother-in-law was capable, and Bai Xiuxiu had a lot of good things from her sister.

She could already imagine how generous the thank-you gift would be.

Besides, this was also a good deed!

Thinking this, Chen Jinhua also happily agreed: “You’re such a polite girl. It’ll probably take about three days to get confirmation. I’ll take you to work then.”

“Then I’ll wait for your good news, Sister-in-law.”

Bai Xiuxiu suppressed her excitement.

Chen Jinhua finished her brown sugar water and then went out.

When Bai Xiuxiu saw her out, she was stopped by Liu Xiao’e.

Liu Xiao’e, remembering what her father-in-law had told her, quickly asked Bai Xiuxiu: “Sister-in-law, why did the headman’s wife come? She doesn’t have any dealings with our family.”

Bai Xiuxiu saw that Liu Xiao’e’s eyes were always shifty. She smiled: “The headman’s wife is from the Women’s Federation, why else would she come? Of course, she’s here to check on my health. Everyone in the village knows that I’m sick.

Move aside, don’t delay my return to the house to rest.”

Bai Xiuxiu looked at Liu Xiao’e with disdain.

Liu Xiao’e’s eyes turned red with anger. Bai Xiuxiu, how could she be so mean?

Everyone in the courtyard heard this.

Wang Shoucheng’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. The headman’s wife had nothing better to do than to meddle in their Wang family’s business?

After this, they couldn’t do anything to this eldest daughter-in-law in public.

It was just getting dark when there was a commotion outside the courtyard.

“Oh, you guys hurry! Quickly go borrow the brigade’s oxcart, take me to the hospital!” Zhao Guifen, limping, was helped into the courtyard by Chen Fang and Zhao Cuihua.

Behind them, Zhou Jiaojiao was dragging a sack, and she had a big basket on her back.

She couldn’t help but complain. Big Brother didn’t even help her carry the things!

What kind of person was he!

In just one day, Zhao Guifen, who was already not feeling well, looked even more lame!

“What happened again?” Wang Shoucheng looked at the group of women who had returned from the mountain. He felt like this scene happened every day!

“Didn’t you fall again?” Wang Shoucheng looked at his wife, Zhao Guifen, with disdain.

At this moment, Bai Xiuxiu also came out of the house.

Watching the Wang family’s disastrous antics every night was one of her pleasures since she was reborn!

“What? Mom was on the mountain, and she was hit on the head by a bird’s egg. She was so angry that she drank the raw egg. After drinking it, she had diarrhea. She found a patch of grass to relieve herself, and there was a long, poisonous snake coiled up there.

It bit her…”

Zhao Cuihua pointed at Zhao Guifen’s butt…
