Chapter 279 No More Job Changes

"Xiao Bao, get up! We need to go early today, or someone will steal our job!" Wen Li's mother, Li Dafang, called out to her precious son early in the morning.

It's so hard to find a job these days. In order to get someone to keep her son's job, she even spent money to give them a can of food.

Li Dafang has truly worried herself sick over this son; what can she do when he's the only boy in the family?

She gave birth to her eldest daughter, Wenxiang, and her second child, Wenli, and then she became pregnant again.

As a result, Wenli's father passed away unexpectedly, and Li Dafang eventually gave birth to twin daughters, Wenming and Wenyue, so she naturally favored this only son.

But Wenli heard his mother urging him to get up, so he impatiently turned over, pulled the blanket over his head, pretended not to hear, and went back to sleep.

Outside, Li Dafang had already started tidying up the house and making breakfast with her three daughters.

There are only two rooms in the house. Wenli has one room, and Li Dafang and her three daughters have another room. They can't squeeze in, that's how it is in their family compound.

It's good enough to have a house at all. It's thanks to Wenli's father, who used to work in a machinery factory, that he was able to get a house before he passed away. These days, there are many workers who can't get a house.

So even though the family felt the house was small, they didn't complain much.

"Xiao Bao, it's really time to get up, it's already broad daylight!"

After Li Dafang and her three daughters finished preparing breakfast, Wen Li still hadn't gotten up, so Li Dafang had to go and call her son again.

"What are you doing up so early!" Wen Li was grumpy when she was woken up.

He had already gone to bed late yesterday because he was thinking about something, and being woken up by someone made him even more irritable.

"It's getting late, Xiao Bao! You'll have to get up early for work from now on!"

Upon hearing this, Wen Li felt even more certain that the decision he made yesterday was correct.

"Going to work? What work? Mom, go and refuse it. I don't want that job anymore, and I'll return the bride price. My older sister can stay; I still have a use for her!"

Li Dafang was shocked to hear this; what was her son saying?!

How can I not want a job!

"Son, are you still half asleep? It was wrong of me to wake you up, but after we finish eating, we really need to go find you a new job!"

Now it was Wen Li's turn to get angry. "Didn't I say I didn't want to work anymore?!"

"But what will you do if you don't have a job, son!" Li Dafang was also anxious. She had finally managed to get her son a job, but now he didn't want to work anymore.

Without a job, how will her son find a partner, and how will she have grandchildren?

"What to do? Let's just do it this way! I have other ideas!" Wen Li had also sobered up by now, and he said with a hint of smugness that he had other ideas.

“Son, do you have any ideas? This job is hard to find!” Li Dafang was skeptical.

Don't you know your son well? He was spoiled by his family since he was a child, his studies were average, he didn't get into university, and having a high school diploma is enough for him.

Wen Li naturally knew that jobs were hard to find, but once he found one, he would have to stay up late and get up early. Moreover, the job he was going to take was in the workshop of the steel plant next door, and he didn't know if his small frame could handle it.

It's better to stick to your own ideas; as long as he succeeds, you can just sit back and wait to collect the money.

"Don't worry, you can trust me to handle things!"

"Then I'm really not going to change jobs. I made an appointment with them today, and they won't wait for me after today. Oh dear, I even gave them a can of food!" Li Dafang slapped her thigh, full of regret.

If she had known her son wouldn't want to change jobs, she wouldn't have been so generous. Giving away that can of food for free felt like such a waste; she should have kept it for her son.

However, she knew in her heart that since they were the ones who weren't going to exchange it first, she had no reason to ask someone else for the can of food back.

Li Dafang was always frugal, and she was feeling a little uncomfortable because she hadn't managed to get anything done for her son after being so generous for once.

"Oh, Mom, it's just a can of food! When I earn money, I'll buy you ten or eight cans, so you can eat your fill!"

Wen Li was focused on making big money and didn't care about this can of food at all.

Li Dafang, who was initially feeling somewhat uncomfortable, was cheered up by her son's words.

"Alright, then I'll look forward to enjoying your good fortune, son!"

Wenxiang, who was waiting outside, was already eagerly anticipating it.

She had just overheard her brother saying that he wanted to return the betrothal gifts and prevent her from getting married.

Although she didn't know why her brother changed his mind, as long as she didn't marry Liu Lao Er, Wen Xiangxin was very anxious. Why weren't her brother and mother coming out yet?

Wenli coaxed his mother and finally got her out of the house.

He quickly washed up and sat down to eat breakfast.

"Why are we eating this for breakfast? And Mom, remember to return my eldest sister's betrothal gifts!" Wen Li looked at the corn porridge again and didn't really want to eat.

"Mom fried an egg for you this morning!" Li Dafang casually pushed the egg toward her son.

"Shouldn't your sister just not return the bride price?" Li Dafang didn't want to return it. Although her son wasn't going to work for the time being, it was still 600 yuan.

Wenxiang's expectant gaze turned to disappointment as she clenched her chopsticks after hearing her mother's words.

Wen Li had just put a piece of egg in his mouth when he heard his mother say that, and angrily slammed down his chopsticks.

"Mother, I'll need my eldest sister's help next. What will I do if you marry her off?"

"Son, don't be angry. I'll return the betrothal gifts, okay?" Li Dafang quickly tried to appease her son when she saw he was upset.

"We'll go return it in a bit, I'll go with you." Wen Li picked up his chopsticks again and continued eating his egg.

"Alright, alright, let's do it together, mother and daughter. But what do you want your sister to do? Can Mom help?"

"No need, Mom, you just focus on your work! My older sister can handle it all by herself!"

That's right, Li Dafang in their family also has a job. She works as a canteen worker at a machinery factory; otherwise, how could she support four children?

"I can do it! Ali, whatever you say, I'll do it!" Wenxiang was extremely excited when she heard that the betrothal gifts were finally going to be returned, and she quickly pledged her loyalty to her younger brother.

As long as she doesn't marry Liu Lao Er, she's willing to do any dirty or tiring work.

That's right. Although Wenxiang didn't know what her brother was going to do, she guessed it wouldn't be an easy task.

Her younger brother had never done any dirty or strenuous work since he was a child, and he had never lifted a finger to do housework. When her father was still alive, he doted on her younger brother, and she and her mother did all the housework, big and small.

She wasn't very capable when she was younger, but as she grew up, she basically took care of everything at home.

Later, she went to the countryside and couldn't take care of her family anymore.

Anyway, she's back now, and this is just a small matter at home. It's not that she's afraid of getting married, it's just that Liu Lao Er is really a bad person. Not only is he ugly, but he also likes to beat people, so of course she's afraid.
