Rebirth 78 was replaced by a husband, the cold educated youth pulled the curtains every day

Chapter 418 Who gave me the confidence?

Goudan, wearing a shirt and leather shoes, carrying a briefcase in his hand, walked listlessly into a dilapidated alley.

His home is in this shantytown.

"Hey, Goudan is back. Look at what you're wearing, how respectable. In our area, you're the best, no one else is better."

A middle-aged woman was sitting and chatting with a few people under the wall. When she saw Goudan coming, she hurriedly picked up the old hen tied up on the ground and went to greet him.

That apologetic smile on his face was as if he had seen a relative.

"Second Aunt." Goudan greeted the person coming.

"Goudan, Second Auntie has a favor to ask of you. Your younger brother has returned to the city, and you know how hard it is to find a job these days. Your second uncle is so worried at home that he's got blisters on his lips."

"Second Aunt wants to ask you, can you talk to the leader of your unit and let your younger brother come to work there as well? I will definitely feel at ease if you take him with you."

Hearing this, Goudan couldn't help but smile awkwardly on his originally listless face.

Ever since the news that he earned nearly a thousand yuan a month was spread by his family intentionally or unintentionally, the attitudes of the neighbors around them towards their family have changed significantly.

Some are envious, and some are jealous.

Many people also came to him, asking him for help in finding jobs.

But Goudan himself was just an ordinary salesman. He felt that he could not help much in this matter, so he always politely declined those people's requests.

Being asked for help again, he could only smile awkwardly.

"Second Aunt, it's not that I don't want to help you. I'm just an ordinary salesperson in the sales station and I can't even talk to the boss."

"Besides, we're not a state-owned unit, not even a large collective, so we have no guarantees."

Goudan used the same rhetoric he had used to deal with other people.

First-class jobs are stable jobs, while last-class jobs are jobs in a large collective.

As for small units with no security at all, many people think that they are hopeless and the last resort.

Just like Goudan in the park, his family was barely making ends meet, so he had to stay put in order to solve the problem of making a living.

Therefore, his speech skills also helped him successfully reject many people.

"Oh, no matter whether it's a big collective or a small collective, it's time now. Having a job and making money is better than anything else. We don't ask your little brother to make hundreds of dollars a month like you. If he can make a few dozen yuan to support himself, we'll be happy."

"This old hen was caught by your second uncle in the countryside. Take it back and ask your mother to stew it..."

The woman kept stuffing the old hen in her hand into Goudan's hand, fearing that he would not want it.

But Goudan really didn't want it.

Since he started working at the sales station, their family's situation has improved a lot. Although the housing problem has not been solved, food and drink are no longer a problem.

I eat meat every now and then. Chicken, duck and fish, which I didn’t dare to dream of before, can now be eaten frequently. This old hen is really not a big deal.

"Aunt, what are you doing? Take it back quickly. I can't have it." Goudan refused.

"Kid, just take it if I tell you to. Your little brother is counting on you."

The woman stuffed the old hen in her hand into Goudan's hand, turned around and left without giving Goudan any chance to refuse.

"Second Aunt... Second Aunt..."

Goudan shouted several times from behind, but the woman showed no sign of stopping.

At the foot of the wall, the women looked at Goudan eagerly, each with a smile on their face.

Goudan glanced at these people, then looked at his second aunt who had disappeared around the corner of the alley.

I had no choice but to carry the chicken in my hand and continue walking home.

"Goudan has achieved great success now. We can't call him by his nickname anymore. We have to call him by his real name." said one person.

"Oh my god, for so many years, everyone has been calling him Goudanzi... Goudanzi. What is his real name? I really don't know..."

"His name is Zhao Wei..."

Walking through this alley, Goudan just arrived at the gate of his own courtyard.

A familiar voice called out to him from behind.

"Gou Dan."

Following the sound, Goudan turned around and saw a figure squatting at the door diagonally opposite.

"Brother Dayu."

The person who called Goudan was none other than Dayu, who had gone to the park with Goudan.

However, at that time, Daewoo saw that the recruiting company was unreliable, so he backed out and did not join the sales station.

They have been waiting for the Employment Office to provide jobs for these educated youth who have returned home.

However, more and more educated youth are returning home.

Daewoo, who has no connections and cannot afford gifts, still hasn't got a stable job. He occasionally works odd jobs at bus stops to earn a few dollars.

In contrast, Goudan's situation is getting better and better.

When the news of earning hundreds of dollars a month spread, Dayu was also envious.

I felt even more regretful. If I had known this would happen, I would have joined that sales station no matter what.

But it was no use for him to regret it.

Look at Goudan wearing leather shoes, Dacron, and small trousers, he dresses brightly and beautifully every day.

Dayu couldn't sit still anymore, and now he was squatting outside Goudan's house. He also wanted Goudan to help him and give him a chance.

Dayu stood up. His legs were a little numb after squatting for a long time.

"Goudan, are we still brothers?"

As Goudan got better, the two of them interacted less and less, Dayu asked uncertainly.

"Yeah, what's wrong, Brother Dayu?" Goudan said with a smile.

"I...I have something I want to ask you for help..."

A few minutes later.

After seeing off Dayu's dog, he opened the gate of his own house.

His expression was somewhat solemn.

"came back..."

"The chicken in your hand..."

"Your second aunt is looking for you?"

Seeing her son coming back, Goudan's mother greeted him with a smile, but when she saw the chicken in Goudan's hand, she recognized it at once.

"Well, my second aunt stuffed it into my hand at the entrance of the alley. She wanted me to introduce Zhao Ye to our sales station." Goudan replied softly.

"This second son's wife is really something. She came to our house first, but I didn't answer her and passed her back. Damn it, she actually ran to the entrance of the alley to block you." Goudan's mother said angrily.

Goudan felt that he could not do what those people asked, so he did not allow his parents to accept gifts from others.

His parents also know what is more important, so they always stick to the principle of not taking other people's things.

Hearing the conversation between the mother and son, Goudan's father, Zhao Laoganzi, walked out of the house.

Looking at the chicken in Goudan's hand, he also sighed:

"It's all because they can't find a job. Zhao Ye has been back for so long, how can he not be worried? I'll send the chicken back to them later. The money to buy the chicken must have been borrowed by the second brother."

A poor man has a short ambition.

Goudan, who was asked for help by Second Aunt and Dayu one after another, now had a deeper understanding of this sentence.

Thinking back to the previous situation of his family, Goudan suddenly understood something.

The reason why he is in such a respectable position now is all because of the money he made at the sales station.

If there were no sales station, then Daewoo would be what it is now.

Think about how Dayu spoke to him in a low voice just now.

Goudan finally realized that it was the sales station that gave him the confidence to stand up straight.

And those people now want him to...
