CHAPTER 367: CHAPTER 367: QUOTA

Although this recruitment was mainly for the children of the transformer factory’s employees, Gu Chunmei still registered her niece Zhao Jingmiao out of hope.

In fact, this wasn’t unheard of at the transformer factory. If a family had no children of the right age to take the exam, they wouldn’t waste the spot and would naturally give it to a relative’s child.

Because of this, Gu Chunmei had a quarrel with her sister-in-law Li Yan.

Li Yan wanted to please her future in-laws and wanted Gu Chunmei to give up the spot to her future brother-in-law’s son, but Gu Chunmei didn’t relent, as she actually had Zhao Jingmiao in mind.

Why should she benefit Li Yan’s future in-laws when she could help her own niece instead?

It’s just that this matter needed to be discussed when Gu Chunxia came back to her family on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

Now, it’s good. Gu Chunxia’s family just lives directly in Nanshui Village, so it will be easy to meet in the future.

Ever since Li Yan found out that Gu Chunmei registered her sister’s child, she’s been making a scene at home. She had already promised her future mother-in-law that this spot would be secured.

"I don’t care, get that spot back for me." That day, as soon as Gu Chunmei returned, Li Yan blocked her at the door and wouldn’t let her in.

"Move." Gu Chunmei said calmly, "The name is already registered, how can we get it back? Besides, when you first mentioned this to me, I already told you it wasn’t possible."

Li Yan wanted to show off at her future in-law’s house and made a big promise.

"Then what am I supposed to do?" Li Yan cried at the door.

Now, her future in-laws no longer looked at her favorably, and even her fiancé had complained to her several times.

"Find a way yourself." Gu Chunmei was now a key figure at the transformer factory, so she had the quotas, but even though Li Laishi also worked at the transformer factory, he couldn’t compare to Gu Chunmei.

So, Gu Chunmei always stood firmly in the Li Family, and now her position was even more prominent.

"You... Brother, am I still your sister?" Li Yan stomped her feet and said to Li Laishi, who was following.

"Of course, you’re my sister." Li Laishi pulled her arms away from the door, "Let your sister-in-law into the house to rest, she’s exhausted from a day’s work."

"You..." Li Yan was pleased with what Li Laishi said at first, but then it didn’t sound right at all.

Were they all just playing her?

"Enough, stop clinging to this matter," said Old Mrs. Li, who had come back with them, "Don’t you see how tired your brother and sister-in-law are? Stop bothering them and serve the meal."

"You all... you’re all bullying me." Li Yan cried, stomped her feet, and ran into her room.

"Mom, it’s not that I don’t want to give this quota to my sister," Gu Chunmei said helplessly, "You know my sister’s family situation."

As for Li Yan’s future in-laws, her future father-in-law also worked at the transformer factory. They clearly have the qualifications to apply but still wanted to get another person in, so they set their sights on Gu Chunmei.

It would be strange if Gu Chunmei gave it to them.

"Your sister is immature, I’ll talk to her later," Old Mrs. Li said.

"Actually, Mom, this incident shows a lot about the family’s character," Li Laishi said, glancing at his sister’s room, "I think we still need to reconsider this marriage."

"The marriage is settled, what else is there to reconsider?" Old Mrs. Li shook her head, "Liang Jiankai is a good young man."

Hearing this, Gu Chunmei didn’t say anything further.

Liang Jiankai was good, but he had a soft ear, which meant her sister-in-law’s future would be troublesome.

It’s just a pity her mother-in-law was too conservative in her thinking.

If it were their own Jiaojiao, she would’ve called off the marriage long ago.
