Chapter 990: Why don't I arrange it
"He has hands and feet, can he still starve to death?"
Shen Jingjing didn't soften her heart just because the old lady wiped her tears. Even for Xiao Min's sake, she couldn't possibly bring Shen Chengcheng to Longcheng at this time.
"Mom, actually you were right to disagree with him coming to Longcheng before. The bad habits on Chengcheng, smoking and drinking are small, he also gambles. If he comes to Longcheng and leaves your side, who can control him?"
"I'm pregnant, can I control him? He might cause a big disaster!" Shen Jingjing deliberately exaggerated: "If he really causes any trouble, you go to prison to see him!"
These words were a bit unpleasant. The old lady looked at Shen Jingjing with displeasure and chided: "What kind of sister curses her own younger brother like this?"
Shen Jingjing said: "Don't you know what kind of character your own son has?"
That place Longyang was small, and even then he lost dozens of yuan gambling. It's really hard to say if he comes to Longcheng.
This matter was stuck in the old lady's heart for a day, and she didn't eat much of the fragrant roast duck at noon, and kept muttering until the evening.
Jiang Yuanliang glanced at his wife while holding the bowl, and only after seeing her give him a look of "no need to pay attention" did he hurriedly lower his eyes.
He listened to his wife very much, and his wife had specifically told him not to be overly generous to her relatives in her hometown, and not to easily make any promises, and to always remember the sense of boundaries.
Shen Ci sat on the side, listening to the words in the old lady's mouth while eating, and finally understood.
"Grandmother, Mom is right. My younger uncle can't possibly learn skills from my uncle-in-law." Shen Ci spoke actively.
Everyone at the table paused upon hearing this. The old lady was about to speak, but Shen Ci snatched the words: "But I can arrange a job for my younger uncle."
"Really?" The old lady's eyes lit up instantly, and she excitedly put down her chopsticks and looked at Shen Ci: "A-Ci, Grandmother knew you were the most capable. What kind of job can you find for your younger uncle?"
Shen Ci smiled slightly, her tone flat: "It's the job that Dabao didn't want to do before, the grave keeper of the cemetery."
The old lady's smile froze instantly, and the next second it disappeared without a trace.
She thought it was some good job, but it turned out to be watching the graves of the dead!
So unlucky.
Shen Ci explained patiently: "Grandmother, don't be unhappy. Let me analyze this matter for you."
The old lady picked up her bowl and continued to eat unhappily. Shen Ci didn't mind and continued on her own: "First, let's talk about my younger uncle. His work experience in all industries is zero, he has no skills, and he is in his forties. Under these conditions, he can probably only deliver takeout in Longcheng; he can't even think about other jobs."
"And his character is vain, he has no opinions, he isn't smart, he is easily bewitched by others, and even more easily led astray. This, Grandmother, you must know better than us. You have a count of how many absurd things he has done in his hometown for so many years."
"Let's talk about the grave keeper job. I mentioned it before. The only requirement is to be able to endure loneliness and have a big heart. This job is too suitable for my younger uncle. He doesn't have to deal with living people, so he doesn't have to worry about being led astray by others. The work is on the mountain in the suburbs, so he doesn't have to worry about being led astray."
"Most importantly, the grave keeper job pays very well. A professional grave keeper in Longcheng has a salary of three to five yuan a month! If my younger uncle is willing to do it, I will give him an extra two yuan a month. Seven yuan a month, plus bonuses, he will have one hundred a year!"
Hearing this, the old lady finally raised her head: "How much?"
Shen Ci replied earnestly: "One hundred! Or I can just calculate it for him as an annual salary, one hundred a year!"
The old lady was completely shocked. Her eldest son, whom she was proud of, couldn't earn one hundred yuan in ten years!
"Is watching graves so profitable?" The old lady looked at Shen Jingjing: "Ah?"
Shen Jingjing blinked. Although she didn't expect her daughter to be willing to arrange a job for Shen Chengcheng, she still nodded along with her daughter's words: "It's not little. As A-Ci said, considering he is her uncle, she gives him more. Normally, thirty to sixty yuan a year for this profession is about the same."
"Oh my." The old lady slapped her thigh excitedly and praised Shen Ci happily: "It still has to be our A-Ci, valuing relationships, giving your younger uncle so much more money."
Then she got up and went upstairs: "I'll go make a phone call and tell him."
Seeing this, Shen Jingjing hurriedly said: "Mom, what's the rush? That cemetery is still being built, it will be next year at the earliest."
"That also has to be said first, let him prepare." Saying this, the person went up the stairs and disappeared.
Shen Jingjing then looked at her daughter: "A-Ci, are you really planning to let your younger uncle be a grave keeper in your cemetery?"
Shen Ci nodded earnestly: "I just heard Grandmother muttering. My younger uncle's future matter is a heart disease in her heart. She dotes on my younger uncle so much that she won't give up if she doesn't find a way out for him."
"And in the family, she can only beg you, because she knows only you and Dad can easily solve this problem."
"As for the matter of letting my younger uncle learn roast goose from my uncle-in-law today, I feel it was just an introduction by Grandmother. She herself couldn't possibly have such a plan. How could she not know that my younger uncle wouldn't learn roast goose? She just borrowed this matter to throw the problem to you, thinking that you and Dad can solve the job matter for my younger uncle."
Jiang Yuanliang couldn't help but smile upon hearing Shen Ci's words, appreciation floating in his eyes: "Still A-Ci is smart, able to see through things at a glance."
He and A-Ci had the exact same thought.
Shen Jingjing realized belatedly: "This old lady, she knows how to take a detour. It would be better to just say it directly. If I had really listened to her today and gone to tell your uncle-in-law, relying on your uncle-in-law's good-natured character, he would definitely have agreed."
Shen Ci smiled and said again: "So in the end, it's all coming to bother you. That's not as good as me arranging it. To be honest, the grave keeper job really isn't something ordinary people can do, but it is very suitable for my younger uncle."
"The working environment is relatively tempering to the heart, and it is far from the crowd, and he earns a lot, and there is nowhere to spend it after earning it, which helps him save the money."
It takes an hour and a half to drive from the cemetery to the city, and three hours back and forth, which is indeed inconvenient.
Shen Jingjing thought carefully, and it really was. If she really wanted to find a job for Shen Chengcheng in the future, this grave keeper was indeed the best choice.
"Okay, if he is willing, then let him try it." Shen Jingjing nodded.
Shen Ci, however, was very confident in the result. The nature of the work was indeed not something ordinary people could accept, but the salary and treatment she gave were there, and Shen Chengcheng would definitely be moved even if he felt it was unlucky. ===== CHAPTER 991 =====
