Chapter 114 Qin Huairu Asks for Work
"Mom, what are you going to do with the work position given to me by the steel mill?" Qin Huairu asked tentatively, with a hint of anticipation in her tone.
When Jia Zhang heard this question, her eyes instantly became as sharp as a knife. She glared at Qin Huairu fiercely, as if she wanted to see through her thoughts. She walked to the bed, sat down, and said coldly: "Qin Huairu, you'd better give up this idea. This work position is the guarantee of my retirement, don't even think about it."
Qin Huairu was shocked by Jia Zhang's attitude, but she quickly adjusted her mood and tried to persuade her in a gentler tone: "Mom, what are you thinking? I'm married to Dongxu, how can I not provide for you in your old age? Besides, if you give me this work station, our three children can be transferred to urban household registration, so that we will have a lot more food supply every month, and your life will be more affluent."
Jia Zhang was unmoved. She still insisted on her position: "You wish! I give you the job, and then you remarry and abandon me. You wish! I tell you, I will not give it to you even if I sell my job! Just give up on this idea!"
Qin Huairu looked at Jia Zhang's resolute attitude and felt anxious. She knew that Jia Zhang was a stubborn person and it was difficult to change her mind once she made a decision.
But she was still unwilling to give up this opportunity, so she continued, "Mom, Brother Dongxu and I have a really good relationship, and I will definitely not remarry. What do you say, in order for you to give me this job?"
Jia Zhang sat on the old stool, her eyes sharp as torches, observing Qin Huairu's anxious expression. She saw Qin Huairu's hands clenched tightly and sweat on her forehead, and knew that she was beginning to get anxious.
This is exactly what Jia Zhang expected. She wanted to see Qin Huairu anxious about this job opportunity so that she could take the initiative more confidently.
So, Jia Zhang gently shook her head, sighed, and said in a slightly vicissitudes of life voice: "Qin Huairu, it's not that I don't believe you, but the world changes too fast and people's hearts are hard to predict. I can't take risks with my pension security. This job is too important to me, I can't give it to you."
As soon as Jia Zhang finished speaking, Qin Huairu lowered her head in disappointment, like an eggplant hit by frost. She knew that this job opportunity was equally important to her, but she also knew that she had no choice.
Seeing Qin Huairu's lost look, Jia Zhangshi didn't have much sympathy in her heart. She paused and continued, "It's not impossible to give it to you, but you have to agree to my three conditions." Although her voice was gentle, there was a hint of unquestionable firmness in her tone.
Qin Huairu was delighted when she heard what Jia Zhang said. She looked up at Jia Zhang with her eyes full of expectation. Even if Jia Zhang put forward conditions, she was willing to agree for this job opportunity.
Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu's anxious eyes and said, "First, you need to give me 5 yuan of pension every month. When your salary increases in the future, your pension will also increase." Although her voice was calm, there was a hint of cunning in her eyes.
Qin Huairu was a little hesitant when she heard this condition, but she thought that she would get 22.5 yuan after joining the company, and even if she gave Jia Zhang 5 yuan, the remaining money would be enough for her family to eat and use. So she nodded and agreed to Jia Zhang's request.
Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu and nodded in agreement, with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes. She took a sip of water and continued, "Second: You must go to the hospital with me to get pregnant before you start working, so that even if you go out to fool around, I won't care."
When Qin Huairu heard this condition, her face instantly turned red. She stared at Jia Zhang with wide eyes, her lips slightly parted, as if she wanted to refute, but was blocked by Jia Zhang's words. She said angrily: "Mom, if others know that I am pregnant, what will they think of me? I am a clean person."
Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu's angry expression, and a sneer appeared on her lips. She didn't care about Qin Huairu's tone and expression, and just said lightly: "You can refuse, I'm not forcing you. But you have to think clearly, this job opportunity is not for everyone."
Qin Huairu hesitated when she heard what Jia Zhang said. She knew she wanted this job opportunity, but Shang Huai's conditions were indeed difficult for her to accept. She lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then raised her head and looked at Jia Zhang, with a hint of determination in her eyes.
"Mom, I agree to this condition as well." Qin Huairu's voice was trembling, but her expression was very firm. She knew she had no way out and could only accept Jia Zhang's conditions.
Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu's compromise, and a hint of pride flashed in her eyes. She had expected Qin Huairu to agree to this condition, because she knew that Qin Huairu wanted this job opportunity. So, she continued to speak out the last condition: "Third: If you get married in the future, you must take me with you and treat me as your own mother."
Qin Huairu felt bitter when she heard this condition. She knew that this condition meant that she would have to live with Jia Zhang all the time in the future, and she could not get rid of her even if she married. But she had no choice but to nod and agree again.
"Mom, I promise you." Qin Huairu's voice was trembling, but her eyes were firm. She knew that she had no way out in her life and could only accept all of Jia Zhang's conditions.
Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu and nodded in agreement, with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes. She put down the cup in her hand and said slowly: "Then after you leave the confinement period, come with me to the street office to sign the agreement. After all, verbal agreement will not work. It must be written in black and white to count."
Qin Huairu felt nervous when she heard what Jia Zhang said. Although she agreed to Jia Zhang's conditions, she didn't want to make these things public. So, she asked anxiously, "Mom, that... there won't be anything weird written in the agreement, right?"
Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu's nervous expression and felt proud. She knew what Qin Huairu was concerned about, so she slowed down her tone and comforted her, "Don't worry, I won't write the second condition into the agreement, and no one will know about it."
Qin Huairu finally felt relieved after hearing what Jia Zhang said. She thought that as long as no one knew the secret, she would not care so much. So she nodded, indicating that she agreed with Jia Zhang's suggestion.
Seeing Qin Huairu agree, Jia Zhang felt very proud. She knew that she had completely controlled Qin Huairu and forced her to accept her conditions.
So, she spoke again: "Okay, after you leave the confinement period, we will go to the street office together to sign the agreement. Remember, don't tell anyone about our agreement, otherwise you will bear the consequences yourself."
Qin Huairu felt nervous when she heard what Jia Zhang said. She knew that what Jia Zhang said was not just empty talk, so she nodded solemnly, indicating that she would abide by the agreement.
