Chapter 94 was brought especially for you.
Xu Sui sat in front of the mirror, tidied her hair, and shook her head when she heard this, saying, "It went smoothly, nothing went wrong."
Today was the first round of written tests. The list of candidates who will advance to the interview stage will be posted on the bulletin board tomorrow after the tests are completed.
The final round of interviews will be held the day after tomorrow.
The written test wasn't a big problem for her; she knew most of the answers. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, getting to the interview was practically a sure thing.
However, judging from the people I encountered during today's exam...
The textile factory probably doesn't have much of a chance.
Leaving aside Wang Jianli, just look at the others; any one of their parents were high-ranking officials in the textile factory.
Not to mention that Wang Jianli was the factory director's son.
This purchasing officer position offers good benefits and lucrative opportunities, so they generally don't recruit externally.
It's obvious that these positions were specifically created for the children of high-ranking officials in the textile factory.
Qin Yunzhou nodded. "It's good that you're alright."
He actually meant to say that it didn't matter if she didn't pass the exam, he could support her.
But the results aren't out yet, and I'm afraid she'll misunderstand if I say it like that.
Xu Sui was unaware of Qin Yunzhou's thoughts. She took out two meat buns that she had packed for lunch from her small handbag, got up and sat down next to Qin Yunzhou, and handed them to him.
"Here you go. I was lucky today; I happened to run into a state-run restaurant that had meat buns, so I brought you two."
"It's a bit cold, do you want to heat it up before you eat it?"
It's hot now, so there's nothing wrong with eating cold food. But if you take it out, someone might find out and it could cause unnecessary trouble.
Looking at the two large meat buns in front of him, Qin Yunzhou was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised, and a strange emotion welled up in his heart, a feeling of warmth.
He pursed his lips, looked up at Xu Sui, and gazed at her fair face.
"...Did you bring this especially for me?"
"Well, I was thinking you haven't had any meat in a long time, and I happened to find that the state-run restaurant still had meat buns, so I brought some back for you. Try it!"
Xu Sui smiled, her eyes clear and bright, her smile radiant.
This person has always been kind to whoever treats her well.
Come to think of it, Qin Yunzhou gave her the money and ticket for the state-run restaurant today, so she shouldn't forget him out of courtesy or reason.
She herself didn't have any food coupons. Not only her, but most families used their food coupons to sell grain, and basically didn't have any left over to eat at state-run restaurants.
Of the entire Qin family, probably only Qin Yunzhou has food ration coupons.
Qin Yunzhou held the large meat bun wrapped in oil paper in his hand, lowered his eyes to hide the complexity in them, and gently hummed in agreement, the corners of his lips slightly upturned.
"I'll steam them. There are two here, one for each of us."
Xu Sui was about to say no, she had already eaten, and these two were for him, since men usually have a big appetite and one would definitely not be enough.
However, Qin Yunzhou had already gone out first, leaning on his cane and carrying meat buns.
Even after leaving, he made sure to close the door behind him.
The Qin family's place was small, with virtually no privacy; everything they did could be clearly seen by others.
Their own little house is considered a private, independent space.
outside.
Old Mrs. Qin had sharp eyes and immediately spotted Qin Yunzhou carrying something wrapped in oil paper as he went to the stove in the yard.
Without a second thought, she quickly recalled the things Xu Sui had packed up at the state-run restaurant earlier that day.
Sure enough, a moment later, the aroma of steamed meat buns wafted out, making mouths water and stomachs rumble.
Grandma Qin couldn't help but walk over to the stove, stand on tiptoe, and peek at the food steaming on it.
Even without opening the lid, she could smell what delicious food was inside.
However, guessing is one thing, but pretending to be stupid is another.
"Yunzhou, what are you steaming? It smells like meat. You didn't cook something delicious again to treat your parents, did you?"
Qin Yunzhou's face was cold and stern. He shook his head and said indifferently, "Xu Sui is pregnant. I still had some food coupons, so I went to the state-run restaurant and bought some meat buns. However, I didn't have that many food coupons on me, so I didn't buy many."
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Qin understood.
The food steaming on the stove is actually for Xu Sui; there's nothing for them.
She suddenly remembered something, slapped her thigh, and leaned closer to ask in a low voice.
"By the way, Yunzhou, look at our family, it's all supported by your dad alone, it's not easy. Our family was already big to begin with, and now that you and your husband are back, there are even more people."
"Your dad is under a lot of pressure. They're both over fifty years old, and they probably don't have much money left."
"You know a lot of people and have a wide network of connections. Could you think of a way to get your mother a job? That would ease the burden on the family and make things a little easier for us."
Qin Yunzhou was somewhat surprised and looked at Old Madam Qin.
"Grandma, do you know about this, since you've brought it up with me?"
During his time back at the Qin family, he had enough time to see most of the people in the family for who they truly were.
Especially this old lady in front of me, she's not the kind of person who's selfless and considerate of others.
But upon closer reflection, it makes sense.
Although his father and the old lady were not related by blood, they had lived together for many years.
His father's job was also arranged by the old lady, so his parents are very filial to her and treat her like their own mother.
If things are better for this family, it will also benefit the old lady.
Grandma Qin smiled and said, "No, I just wanted to ask you first. You have many friends and a wide network of connections."
"So Grandma is asking if you have any connections. If you do, Grandma has saved up some money that we can use to help your mother get a job."
"This way, our family's life will be a little easier, and we won't have to live so frugally anymore."
Qin Yunzhou thought for a moment and asked, "Grandma, how much money can you come up with?"
Old Mrs. Qin was stunned for a moment, then her heart leaped with joy. Could this person really have a solution?
She quickly calculated in her mind, then hesitated for a moment, hardened her heart, and said a number, "I can't come up with more, but I can manage two hundred yuan if I grit my teeth."
The more you spend, the more you get back.
Given Tianhua and her husband's personalities, once they have jobs, they definitely won't let her spend this money for nothing; they'll probably repay her even more.
Qin Yunzhou was even more surprised and couldn't help but take another look at the old lady.
Two hundred yuan is a lot.
Based on his understanding of the Qin family over the past few days, his parents probably didn't even have a few dollars. If they did, his mother wouldn't have gone home to ask Xiao Fen for money when Qin Min was hospitalized last time.
"I've only just returned to Fengyang County, and I don't actually know many people there. I'm afraid I can't get this done."
Qin Yunzhou didn't agree immediately; he was just testing the old lady's limits.
