Chapter 396: Chapter 396: Proposal for Elder Sister

Cheng Su received a call from Qi Fenglian about the matter of working at her place, and in the phone, she also expressed her concerns.

"You know what kind of person my mother-in-law is, sister-in-law, and I also don’t know, just like that going to your place to work, I’m afraid it might cause trouble in the future." Qi Fenglian was filled with worry.

That calculating look on her mother-in-law’s face really made her feel uneasy, she feared that in the future things might turn ugly, damaging the relationship between relatives, she was even more afraid that her brother would be put in a difficult position.

Cheng Su asked, "What did your mother-in-law say?"

"She didn’t really say anything, just asked when we come over, if we’re going to be officials, leaders, just receiving a salary without working, only freeloading!" Qi Fenglian said with a sneer.

This was indeed the kind of thing the Zhang family’s old lady would come up with, Cheng Su snorted with laughter, and asked, "And what about you, what does Elder Sister’s husband think, does he feel the same way?"

"That’s definitely not possible, where would there be such good fortune? Since we’re receiving a salary, naturally we should help out with the work." Qi Fenglian said without hesitation, then asked uneasily, "Sister-in-law, to be honest, will this make things difficult for you? Otherwise, I can just find something to do here in the county."

"Elder Sister, why would I have difficulty on my side? But I should tell you first, working here at my place is not easy at all, the working hours are also quite long, and it’s far from home, there won’t be many days off, you have to think it through," said Cheng Su.

Working in catering is different from other jobs, the holidays are inherently fewer, and when festivals bring more customers, it’s even less likely to get any time off.

"I know, I just worry it might make things difficult for you."

Cheng Su continued, "Also, with your husband, talk to him, see if he’s willing to follow a renovation team and do some work there. He’s a carpenter by trade, he could learn and later work for himself, isn’t that better than working for others?"

"Renovation?" asked Qi Fenglian.

Cheng Su hummed in affirmation and suggested, "Start working with someone else now, and in the future when you have the capital, you can go it alone."

Real estate will flourish in the future, and if Zhang Jisheng is honest and hardworking, won’t he be able to get business once he has the skills? Can one work for others their entire life? Isn’t it true that once people have money, they start their own businesses?

Moreover, since Zhang Jisheng comes from a carpentry background, he should be able to pick up the renovation work more quickly.

"I’ll ask him," Qi Fenglian thought for a moment, hesitated, and then asked, "And on your side, when do you need people? During the new year, are you guys coming back?"

Cheng Su looked at the calendar on the table and said, "We’ll definitely come back for the new year. As for when I need people on my side, there’s no rush, isn’t your Baobao still not weaned?"

"That’s true, but there’s not much left for him to eat," Qi Fenglian said with a bitter laugh on the other end of the phone, "I just want to earn a bit more money now, to buy him formula, so that it won’t..."

She trailed off, choosing to hold back on sharing the ridiculousness of her mother-in-law’s actions. After all, why bother letting out her family issues to make others uncomfortable alongside her.

"What happened?"

"It’s nothing," Qi Fenglian said, "I’ll ask for Elder Sister’s husband’s opinion, then give you a call, there’s no more to talk about now."

"Okay!"

"The weather has gotten cold, you all should take care of yourselves and not catch a chill," Qi Fenglian added one last word of caution.

Cheng Su answered with a laugh, hung up the phone, and pondered.

On the phone, Qi Fenglian was hesitant, the thing she just mentioned was clearly only half said. Could it be that something unpleasant had happened again?
