Chapter 336: Laid Off
When Jiachi heard this, he blinked and said slowly, “I can’t bear to use it. Besides, if my mother saw it, there’s no way to explain.”
Jiachi pursed his lips and looked at Jian Ai. Last time, his sister took him to Macau. The day before they came back, she took him to the shopping center in Macau to buy many things. However, when they came back, he hid them away.
Firstly, he couldn’t bear to use them, and the main reason was that he was afraid that his parents would discover them.
If he said that his sister bought them, the adults probably wouldn’t believe him, and this would cause trouble for his sister.
Looking at Jiachi’s expression, Jian Ai knew what he was thinking. Her expression softened, and Jian Ai raised her hand to stroke Jiachi’s soft hair. “It’s okay to use it. I’ll buy more for you in the future. Don’t be afraid that Aunt and Uncle will know. If they ask, tell them that I bought it.”
Jiachi nodded. “Got it, Sister.”
Wang Yunzhi knew that Jian Ai liked to eat tomatoes, so besides stewing chicken and potatoes, she specially prepared scrambled eggs with tomatoes for Jian Ai.
At the dining table, Wang Yunzhi looked at Jian Ai and asked, “Xiao Ai, Jiachi said that there’s a Mathematical Olympiad in the city. There will be bonus points for the college entrance examination too.”
Jian Ai stopped eating and looked up at Jiachi. Then, she said to Wang Yunzhi, “Jiachi signed up too?”
Hearing Jian Ai’s words, Wang Yunzhi knew that Jian Ai had registered as well. She nodded. “One can score extra points for the college entrance examination. It’s a good opportunity. You should give it a try.”
Jian Ai thought so too and smiled. “Aunt, don’t worry. Jiachi and I will do our best.”
Wang Yunzhi reached out and placed a drumstick in Jian Ai’s bowl. “Have a drumstick.”
Jian Ai: “Thank you, Aunt.”
Wang Yunzhi smiled and turned to ask Yao Feng, “Have you asked about the thing I asked you before?”
Yao Feng, who was eating, nodded, but his expression was not good. “I did, but the freight station’s cafeteria is not short of people now. The person in charge said that they shouldn’t be hiring anymore in the near future.”
When Wang Yunzhi heard this, she couldn’t help but frown and sigh faintly.
Yao Feng quickly comforted her. “Don’t be upset. I’m here. Take your time to find a job. There’s no hurry.”
“But we can’t just rely on you alone.” Wang Yunzhi became more worried as she spoke. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and lost her appetite.
Jian Ai heard their words and couldn’t help but be stunned. “Aunt, what happened? Aren’t you doing well at the clothing factory? Why are you looking for a job?”
Since Yao Feng and Wang Yunzhi treated Jian Ai as a child, they didn’t think too much about it. Yao Feng casually said, “The clothing factory your aunt worked at is not earning well anymore. A while ago, they laid-off employees and your aunt was one of them.”
Wang Yunzhi also sighed and said, “Now, all the clothing factories in Baiyun City have started to import fully automatic sewing machines. People at the clothing factories don’t want a tailor like me, so I’m thinking of finding something else to do.”
As she spoke, Wang Yunzhi couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment. In the end, she muttered, “If it doesn’t work out, I’ll go look for Brother and ask him to arrange a job for me at the interior design company.”
When Yao Feng heard this, he was the first to disagree. “Forget it. No matter who you ask, don’t approach Elder Brother.”
Yao Feng didn’t have a good impression of Wang Yunzhong.
Indeed, in Wang Yunzhong’s eyes, he had never taken his two sisters seriously. Perhaps if they asked, Wang Yunzhong would help out for the sake of face, but Yao Feng was also a person who wanted backbone. If the other party was unwilling, he would rather not ask him for help.
