Transmigrated & Triumphant: Defying Destiny's Chosen One-Chapter 494 - 42: Toy Car Painting_2

Hiss!

...

Shi Suifeng’s training sessions were getting later and later.

Even though he was quick and spent over 40 minutes preparing the meals, Shi Suifeng still returned close to 9 o’clock.

Upon entering, he wiped his sweat and directly said, "I’ve already told my friends at the hospital, the two kids don’t need to have meals sent to them tonight."

Otherwise, by this time, people would be starving.

Ah!

Da Dan looked at the meals he prepared: "Seems like I made too much."

Shi Suifeng smiled: "No worries, your aunt will eat it."

As he glanced at Chu River, she was already sitting at the dining table, sighing: "Good thing I wasn’t tempted by that 66 yuan to join the military, it’s just too tough—missing dinner time!"

Shi Suifeng felt helpless.

Is Little He’s focus the hardship? It’s about missing mealtime.

He succinctly said, "We have a task at the border recently, so we need extra training."

Sweat more during peacetime, bleed less during wartime. That’s the principle.

Not just him, even those old professors doing research probably missed their meals too. It’s said that Professor Zheng made a breakthrough earlier, which is quite useful for their task, and now he’s working overtime to perfect it.

But there’s no need to mention all that; he just added, "No need to go to work tomorrow either. We have many kids at home and Gu An hasn’t been discharged yet, let’s see the day after tomorrow."

Chu River was puzzled: "Can the kids handle it without a teacher?"

Shi Suifeng laughed: "Actually, I suspect you won’t keep this job because Teacher Xiao Zhou came back."

Chu River: ???

"But I’ve worked for several days, they need to pay me."

Shi Suifeng found it amusing yet annoying: "You want to have a job when others have it, you want to earn a salary when others earn it, now that you can earn, you don’t want to do the work anymore, right?"

Chu River pleaded innocent: "I’m not the one who quit, playing with kids and making money each day is fantastic... why did Teacher Xiao Zhou come back?"

Why?

Simple.

Zhou Hongfang quit in a rush because her in-laws said her future mother-in-law was preparing to resign, leaving a spot for her daughter-in-law.

These days, jobs can be bought, sold, or filled within relatives.

But... her mother’s family has a little daughter who fell seriously ill in the countryside and was allowed back to the city. The mom felt sorry for her daughter, so she transferred the job to her.

That certainly stirred things up at home.

With several daughters in the family, why give it to the youngest?

And the son argued that once a daughter marries, she belongs to someone else, but a daughter-in-law is still theirs. Once it’s promised, how could it not count?

No matter whether the marriage plans succeed or not, Zhou Hongfang came back first.

In the nursery, she wasn’t permanent, earning 18 yuan a month, but if she became permanent, it wouldn’t be much different from being a city worker.

Better hold onto what’s at hand.

Thinking about it made her regret it! Leaving was her own decision, hastily, and returning was also her doing...

As for whether the job could be taken back...

So easy!

Captain Shi’s family has 5 kids. Just caring for them is exhausting enough. His sister, a young girl, hasn’t even got a proper high school diploma. Zhou Hongfang has a clear advantage in reclaiming her job.

However, if Chu River wanted to continue, Shi Suifeng had his methods.

But seeing Little He so excited about her speculative business, he didn’t need to ask much; he understood.

Chu River was also angry: "How can this family not keep their word!"

No matter how much they care for the little daughter, a promise is a promise, and failing to meet it requires an explanation. How could they quietly hand over the job?

It just delayed her work.

Daya also nodded, but thought to herself—

Having skills is better; with skills, you can be like Auntie, not caring about a job offered by others. When you want to earn money, you can earn it.

And, if something isn’t in your hands, no promise counts. It’s because the teacher ran into a kind person like Auntie; if it were someone else, she wouldn’t get her job back after giving it away.

In the end, going back empty-handed would only lead to being mocked by others.

Daya clenched her fists—

Auntie’s suffering is due to not having a high school diploma; otherwise, reclaiming the job wouldn’t be this simple!

Once she goes to school, she must work hard!

Yun Baoni blinked...

What did Uncle Shi mean?

Because there are too many kids at home, Auntie can’t go to work and lost her job?

It’s said Auntie is a teacher.

Being a teacher is great, but now she can’t...

She pursed her lips, realizing her recent efforts weren’t enough.
