Passerby's Guide to Eating Watermelons

Chapter 258: World of Ages 10: Work

Of course, the time is set for next year. There is really no room for people to live in the house now, but once Zuo Zhizhi gets married next year, there will be space available.

This period of time happened to be when the two of them were working.

Needless to say, Feng Duoduo had to agree to her parents' request, but she had agreed that she would paste matchboxes at home every day and mend clothes for others during this period.

And all the money earned during this period will be kept without any surprise.

This is the last contribution she can make at home, although it is impossible to let her go out and play during this time.

Zuo Aiguo also suddenly became idle. He could not go out on a date with Feng Duoduo and could only stay at home doing nothing.

After Feng Aiguo's matter was settled, the family turned their attention to Zuo Zhizhi.

Although Zuo Zhizhi had been trying to cover it up before and had not clearly stated her boyfriend's family situation.

But looking at the current situation, they can't let themselves relax all the time.

"Zhizhi, what's your boyfriend's family background like? We've been dating for such a long time, you can't let him cheat you!"

Xie Hehua had a kind and gentle face, but Zuo Zhizhi couldn't help frowning, but on the surface she still said shyly: "He is from an ordinary family, but I heard that his father is a small cadre."

When the family heard this, they couldn't help but smile. After all, this was good news!

Their family are all ordinary people. Although they look glamorous, they actually live an ordinary life without money or power.

The whole family dreams of getting involved with cadres, otherwise, why would they have tried every possible way to connect Zuo Zhizhi and Director Zhang!

Now they don’t need to do anything, Zuo Zhizhi is dating the child of a cadre on her own, this is definitely a good thing!

So, Zuo Zhizhi, who used to have to do all kinds of housework, has now completely stopped.

Even when he occasionally went out, Xie Hehua would give him some pocket money. Although the amount was not much, at least he wouldn't go out empty-handed every time.

Seeing the family's appearance, Zuo Zhizhi could only be thankful that she had not explained the matter too clearly on the grounds that she was embarrassed to ask.

Otherwise, at this time, there is absolutely no way that I can stay here obediently!

Zuo Zhizhi didn't want to stay at home and see her family clearly wanting to find her but showing concern for her, so she preferred to stay in school.

Although the situation at school isn’t too good recently, it’s still much better than the weird behavior of my family!

"Zhizhi, after my dad finds me a job, I'm afraid I won't come to school anymore!" Gu Jiqing sighed after finishing his meal, but still said it.

"Is it so sudden?"

Although Zuo Zhizhi knew that he would definitely have his own job, she didn't expect that they would have to go to work before they even graduated!

Although finding a good job nowadays depends on snatching, so getting there early is naturally not a big deal, but I never expected to be in such a hurry!

"My dad found me an electrician and asked me to learn a skill from him. There's not much to learn in school, so I might as well get the certificate in advance. It will also give me more opportunities to practice!"

Gu Jiqing had obviously arranged everything, but had not yet put it into practice.

Zuo Zhizhi nodded naturally: "That's good. It's hard to find a job nowadays. It will definitely save a lot of trouble if I can have a master to guide me!"

"But we won't be able to see each other often!"

Gu Jiqing felt a little aggrieved. Originally, the two of them could only get along at school and go out on dates occasionally, but not often.

Now that I have to work during the day, we can only go on dates on weekends. The time we spend together has been reduced a lot, which makes him very unhappy!

Zuo Zhizhi patted his head and said with a smile: "Alright, it's not like we're separated by thousands of miles. It's just that we can't see each other during the day. At worst, I can come find you after school!"

"Really? That's a deal!" Gu Jiqing spoke without hesitation, as if he was waiting for Zuo Zhizhi to say this.

Zuo Zhizhi was almost laughing at his anger: "How dare you trick me? You're asking for a fight!"

Gu Jiqing only symbolically blocked them twice, then held his head with a fearless look: "What should I do? Otherwise, it will be so uncomfortable not being able to see my wife every day!"

Zuo Zhizhi didn't mind too much. She symbolically hit him twice and then started asking about the specific content.

"I found a job at a machinery factory this time. It's a skilled trade, and the skills I've learned are incomparable to anyone else! What's more, the factory is short of electricians right now. Once I can learn it myself, I can prepare for the exam. I'm sure there will be a lot of benefits by then!"

At this point, he quietly glanced around to make sure no one was around, then whispered into Zuo Zhizhi's ear, "I heard the machinery factory will start distributing housing next year or the year after. We can move out then!"

"Really?"

Zuo Zhizhi had never expected such a big surprise.

After all, in this era, it is very normal for a family to live together after marriage.

In other words, if you enter someone else's home alone, they are all family members, and you are the only outsider.

If you can get along, it's fine. If you can't, then it will be terrible.

"Of course! Don't worry, if there's a chance to get a room, I'll definitely be one!"

Gu Jiqing patted his chest and assured that although he lacked qualifications, not everything was determined by qualifications. It would not be difficult to find some ways to get a house!

Gu Jiqing also knew that Zuo Zhizhi didn't like living with other people.

Before, they had lived together as a big family and had suffered a lot of grievances. Now if they could have separate rooms, that would naturally be the best!

In order to make Zuo Zhizhi happy, he told her the result he had finally found out without hesitation!

Zuo Zhizhi was very satisfied. Although she had prepared herself mentally, it would be best if she could avoid being crowded with other people!

After all, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural rivals. Being able to live separately will definitely improve the relationship between them!

Things smell good from a distance but smell bad up close. This is an eternal truth!

"Zhizhi, when will you come home with me to meet our parents? Isn't it time to discuss our marriage?"

"At least wait until graduation!"

"Let's talk about getting married after graduation. I'll tell my parents first! After all, there are a lot of people looking for jobs right now. Let's see if I can find one for you too. Then we can both work and be the envy of others!"

Zuo Zhizhi glanced at him, making sure that he was filled with joy, and then nodded slightly.

"But it's hard to find a job. If it really doesn't work out, then forget it!"

"Yeah, don't worry, I'm just asking if there's any way to recruit workers. I'm not asking them to do anything!"
