Chapter 63: Chapter 63: JOB OPPORTUNITIES 3

Susan, seeing her husband acting like that, cringed as she moved away.

"You .... Don’t do that!" she exclaimed, pointing at him, goosebumps appearing on her skin.

Seeing her reaction, Frank burst into a peal of hearty laughter, and Susan, seeing that, knew that she had been pranked. Feeling toyed with, Susan began to banter with her husband all the way home.

Following behind the bantering and playful couple were Tim and his young wife, Nancy. Nancy was holding her son, who had woken up some time ago and was busy looking around curiously.

"Dear, do .... Do you think ..... should I should register as well?" Nancy asked a bit timidly as she looked at her husband.

Tim looked at his wife, who was still shy and timid around him even after years of being together and smiled at her.

"If you want, then go for it. I will not stop you. Besides, this is the best time to earn money. She is being generous!" Tim responded encouragingly.

After seeing his sister and Calista for five years, he started letting go of the prejudice of what women should do.

Calista was very successful and only those who were close to her would know that. While it looks like, she was just like the rest of them living in a tree house and so forth, that wasn’t the case at all.

From the kitchenware, furniture, clothes and food, everything was top-notch. She was very rich, probably richer than some lords living in towns and major cities, and yet she was still in their village.

Every time she went to town, she would always spring a lot. It was thanks to her that his family became better the way they are today.

And having a working woman in the house was something that he looked forward to. Women were known for being responsible and putting their families to the forefront. So, nothing would go wrong as long as they were in charge.

So, the idea of letting his young wife work was pretty good. This way the money she earns she can do whatever she wants with it since it is already difficult for them to make everyone happy.

And it’s been a while since she brought something fancy to her natal home and he was hoping that by doing this job, she would be able to achieve that at least.

Nancy, getting encouragement from her husband, looked at him with squinted eyes, her love oozing for the man who had never let her suffer from the day they became an item.

How fortunate she was!

Meanwhile, in several households that day, similar conversations could be heard.

"I think our whole family should just try. If we manage to get the jobs, our family will be faring better during this winter. We are still lacking a lot of things, and if we don’t take it seriously, we will starve!"

"That’s true. Let’s just do our best. I hope that we will make it."

"I am just grateful that she doesn’t hold grudges. To think that after what we did to her all these years, she still offered to build us a free clinic. She is really nice!"

"Which is why you need to change your attitude from now on. You know who you might offend with your words nowadays!"

"I have learnt a lesson."

In another household, a woman and her three kids were sitting in a run-down thatched round mud house having a meal which looked too pitiful. However, there were smiles on their faces, which was quite rare.

"Mother, don’t worry. We will get the jobs tomorrow and make sure that you get the medicine. We don’t know how long it will take to get the clinic running. So, if we get the jobs and money this time, we will buy medicine and find more food."

"You kids .... I should be the one worrying about this and not you!"

"We are a family, so we are in this together, no matter what."

Meanwhile, in a certain household, the sound of clay bowls shattering could be heard as a young woman with a squarish face was busy shouting angrily at no one in particular, as she was just by herself.

"That shameless vixen! Why appear now to cause a scene? Does she think that she has a lot of money to flaunt it like this? Why does it always have to be her? Why?" the more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

Unfortunately, the person she was angry at didn’t have a single clue of what was happening but was busy giggling heartily as she was being piggybacked by her husband, playing on the hill as they didn’t have much to do.

And a certain group of people watching from the shadows seeing that they could only regret not having any equipment to record such rare moments.

After all, where could they see something like that for free and with their master being the protagonist?

The next morning, Calista woke up quite early, yawning as she stretched her arms and stopped in the middle as her hands somehow landed on the person sleeping next to her.

Seeing the man sleeping soundly without any signs of waking up anytime soon, she couldn’t help but smile as love filled her hazy eyes.

Calista lowered her head and planted a kiss on the man’s soft lips which could rival hers if she became too lazy to take care of herself before leaving the climbing down the bed satisfactorily.

After landing on the floor which had fur mats on it, since the wooden floor was a bit cold for her, her hand slipped under her pillow and smiled triumphantly as she took something familiar under the pillow.

Clutching that day’s rewards, Calista made her way to the cabinet, which she opened, revealing the drawer that was filled with all sorts of coins.

She had been saving all her money in the drawer and seeing it piling up, she felt jovial.
