After receiving the bananas, the two younger ones looked at Zhao Xinxin and said, "Thank you, future auntie."
Upon hearing his wife mention it so casually, Brother-in-law Wang felt as if this future sister-in-law had been married before.
That was also the reason why the mother-in-law had always been disagreeing.
It seemed she had never made it easy for the other party.
"Comrade Xiao Zhao, how many siblings do you have in your family?"
"There are four of us; I’m the youngest in the family. I have two older brothers and one older sister."
Having four siblings certainly made for a lively household.
"Comrade Xiao Zhao, I heard you came to Capital City to join your cousin and his family."
Brother-in-law Wang was actually quite curious about it.
Zhao Xinxin nodded; there was nothing she couldn’t say about it.
"Yes, my third cousin and his wife were both admitted to universities here in Capital City. Along with their two children, they moved here to study. Since the reform and opening-up, my cousin has been eager to take care of us and that’s how I was able to find work in Capital City."
Coming to Capital City to study, and even bringing along two children to study in Capital City.
"How old are your cousin’s children?"
Zhao Xinxin thought for a moment, "The older one is seven years old and in second grade. The younger one is five years old and attends kindergarten."
Seven years old and in second grade?
"It must be difficult to attend school here if their hukou isn’t from Capital City, right?"
Zhao Xinxin was aware of this; otherwise, like her sister-in-law said, it would have been a bit of a mess.
"Da Bao attends the elementary school affiliated with my sister-in-law’s university."
Not many universities have affiliated elementary schools.
"Which university does your sister-in-law attend?"
Brother-in-law Wang gasped; Tsing University isn’t one you can just decide to get into.
No wonder they were able to send their child to this affiliated elementary school; it solved the problem of schooling in one fell swoop.
Brother-in-law Wang was eager to know, which university Comrade Xiao Zhao’s cousin attended.
"University of Science and Technology."
That’s a good school too.
"Your sister-in-law is an Educated Youth," Brother-in-law Wang suddenly realized something. It’s quite difficult for rural kids to get into Tsing University, which is why he guessed boldly.
"Right, my sister-in-law was an Educated Youth."
Mr. Wang glanced at his son-in-law, wondering why he kept questioning Comrade Xiao Zhao about her cousin and cousin’s wife.
"Comrade Xiao Zhao, I heard from Jianguo that you are attending night school."
Zhao Xinxin nodded, "My sister-in-law signed me up for it; she said that girls should also study. I didn’t go to school for many years back in the countryside. The only skill I had was making clothes."
Wang Jianguo laughed and praised her from the side, "Xinxin has already designed several outfits, which sell really well. The clothing factory even awarded her a good amount of bonus money."
Attending night school to study design?
Even now, having designed several popular styles, receiving bonuses, and even buying a house, borrowing money to buy a house.
"It’s not as exaggerated as you say, it’s thanks to my sister-in-law and Third Brother for giving me the opportunity."
Brother-in-law Wang was a bit confused.
"Comrade Xiao Zhao, did your cousin open a clothing factory?"
Otherwise, how could one explain her sister-in-law and cousin giving her such an opportunity.
Sister Wang came over at that moment.
"Is it the Yuntian Clothing Factory?"
Yuntian Clothing Factory wasn’t well-known.
But the Yuntian Clothing Store was quite famous.
"We are also clinging to the convenience that my cousin can provide in his work."
Mr. Wang actually already knew that the Yuntian Clothing Store, and even the Yuntian Clothing Factory were indeed opened by Comrade Xiao Zhao’s Third Brother.
He had also heard from his son about who lived in the Courtyard House.
He deduced that not just any relative could get a job in their store or factory.
Her ability to work in the store was also a testament to her own skills.
