Chapter 308: Misfortune Befalls the Wang Family (1)

Gu Qingyao raised her head and looked indifferently at Sun Mei’s mocking tone and Gu Ruoqing’s proud expression. She replied, “Oh? Has your account been transferred? Should I address you as Wang Ruoqing now?”

Gu Ruoqing’s expression immediately stiffened.

How could she possibly transfer her account?

Her account was still in the village and by right, she was still a member of the village.

In these times, accounts could not be transferred so easily. Even if someone married and moved to the city, her account remained in the village.

Of course, Sun Mei knew this. She smiled and said, “It’s not so easy to transfer an account. In these times, even if you marry and move to the city, your account remains in the village. But you can live in the city. It’s completely different from living in the countryside!

“Your elder sister’s current father is doing so well. He’s the owner of a textile factory in town! Qing Qing will soon start work in the factory. She will have a salary and coupons. Isn’t that the same as being a city girl? But you’re still at home, working in the fields!”

Gu Qingyao was amused. Was there something wrong with their brains?

If she wanted to move to the city, did she need to compare herself with Gu Ruoqing?

Her third uncle and five older cousins were living in the city.

Gu Qingyao smiled and said, “Doesn’t the factory require a city account when they hire people? Since she has a village account, how can she work in the factory?”

Chen Honghua immediately sneered. “Didn’t I say that Qing Qing’s father is a director in the factory? Isn’t it easy for him to get his daughter a job in the factory?”

Gu Qingyao raised her brows. “It is? It’s not good to publicly break the rules, is it?”

Everyone’s expression changed.

Of course, it was not a good thing. In fact, it was forbidden.

If Wang Guozhu really managed to get Gu Ruoqing in, he would have made all the appropriate arrangements. Everyone understood how these things worked.

But no one would broadcast such matters publicly.

Gu Qingyao laughed when she saw that they had fallen silent. “Since you’re a city dweller and you’re about to start work in a factory, what are you doing here in the countryside? Oh by the way, where’s your mother?”

Gu Ruoqing’s expression stiffened.

Her mother’s stomach was very large and she did not dare to leave the house.

Everyone looked at Gu Ruoqing suspiciously when they saw that she could not reply. Gu Qingyao could not be bothered to argue with them.

After Gu Qingyao left, Gu Ruoqing remained standing in the same spot. She thought hard on how to explain the situation to the rest. She must not allow others to know the truth. Otherwise, she would not receive so many good things.

When she saw Sun Mei’s suspicious expression, Gu Ruoqing hurriedly said, “Don’t listen to her nonsense. Of course, I have my reasons for coming to the countryside. My father… is very good to my mother and dotes on her. He can’t bear for her to work and he gives her lots of good things. My… my paternal grandparents are not too happy about this, especially because my mother and I have village accounts. The previous woman had a city account, and that made my paternal grandparents even unhappier.

“So my mother asked me to make a good show. The factory has not released its recruitment quota yet, and no matter how capable my father is, he can’t get me into the factory now. So he asked me to come to the village to work to please my paternal grandparents.

“My mother said I don’t really have to do anything. I just need to work a little to pass the time. Anyway, the food will only be distributed at the end of autumn. By then, I will be working in the factory and receiving a salary, so my paternal grandparents can’t blame me for not having many work points.

“That’s why I come to the village every day!”

Once Gu Ruoqing explained it this way, everyone understood.

It was true that Gu Ruoqing did not do much in the village.
