“Alright then. Do as you see fit.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
“Yes!” A smile flashed across Zhou Shi’s face.
The next day, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife received a reply from Zhou Shi.
When Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife received the news, she was so happy that she almost kowtowed to her. Her mouth was filled with words of gratitude.
“If you want to thank someone, thank Yue’er. Without her approval, we wouldn’t have hired you.”
“Yes, 1 thank Ms. Lin! Our family will never forget her great kindness to us.” Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife immediately said.
Zhou Shi nodded.
“Forget about the past. In the future, just do your job properly and don’t cause trouble.”
“Yes! Don’t worry, we’ll definitely behave ourselves and do our job well!”
Only then did Zhou Shi let Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife leave.
Back at work, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife immediately told the good news to Madam Wang.
Madam Wang was very happy for her.
“When I get back from work later, 1’11 tell my husband about this.”
“Tonight, why don’t you let your husband go over and let him start working?”
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife quickly thanked her.
“Deal! Thank you so much!”
“What are you thanking me for? What kind of relationship do we have?” Madam Wang said happily.
She wanted to go back and tell her husband the good news.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife felt that the morning had passed a little slowly.
However, it was still noon.
After saying goodbye to Madam Wang, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife quickly walked home.
She went home and told her husband everything.
When Fourth Uncle Lin heard this, he was so surprised that he almost carried his wife.
When he learned that he could earn 35 wen in an hour and get off work with his wife, Fourth Uncle Lin’s heart was burning with excitement.
“35 wen a day, how much is it in a month?” Fourth Uncle Lin laughed foolishly.
“1,050 wen!” Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife immediately said.
She had already calculated.
“And that’s only for two hours every night. Madam Wang said that the moving team was also short of people during the day.”
“With Mr. Wang around, you will be able to get work.”
“In this way, you have to go more often. In a month, it would not be a problem to earn 2 taels of silver.” Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife said.
When Fourth Uncle Lin heard this, his eyes lit up even more.
“It’s a pity. If I were a full-time worker, the salary would be higher. It’s just that there are ore requirements for full time work. In addition, we have to look after the land at home.” Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife said with a regretful expression.
Fourth Uncle Lin grabbed his wife’s hand and patted it.
“It’s already good enough to be able to do odd jobs. There is also a harvest of cabbages. It’s not bad all year round.”
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife nodded.
“Okay, take it slow. We’ll be able to save enough money to build a house sooner or later!”
“Yes!” Fourth Uncle Lin also had a determined look on his face.
With excitement, Fourth Uncle Lin went to the workshop with his wife at night.
On the way, they met acquaintances. People greeted the couple and thought that Fourth Uncle Lin was sending his wife to work, but they found out that he himself was going to work.
Soon, the news of Fourth Uncle Lin working in the Liu family’s workshop spread.
In less than two days, the Lin family learned of this news.
Lin Dachui, who went to the fields every day, seemed to have found hope. He looked for Fourth Uncle Lin again.
However, before they could say anything, they were sent away by Fourth Uncle Lin.
As for his siblings, they also quarreled over this matter.
Jiang Shi and Deng Shi cursed Fourth Uncle Lin and his wife for being heartless. They only cared about their own lives and refused to help them.
First and Second Uncle Lin, who usually didn’t stop their two wives from cursing, stopped them this time.
After that, he even warned the two of them not to make things difficult for them.
Then, they went to block Fourth Uncle Lin.
“We are brothers. The bones are broken, but the tendons are still connected.” First Uncle Lin said emotionally to Fourth Uncle Lin.
“Look at my family’s situation now. Dazhuang and Erzhuang aren’t young anymore. They’ll have to discuss marriage in less than two years. And Daya, we need to prepare a dowry when she gets married in the future.”
“It’s not easy to find a job in town now. Where can we get the money?”
“That’s right! It’s the same for your two nephews, Dashan and Xiaoshan.” Second Uncle Lin said.
“The Liu family’s workshop doesn’t pay much, but it’s close to home and there’s always work.”
“Help your nephews to get work. They will remember your kindness for the rest of your life!”
First Uncle Lin glanced at Second Uncle Lin. The two of them exchanged glances and stood on the same side.
“That’s right! Washing vegetables and doing odd jobs are nothing for your
sisters-in-law..”
