Mother Su talked to her for a while, and they moved onto the next topic.

“How is your mother? I heard that your mother came over the day before yesterday.” Mother Su asked.

“There’s nothing to worry about,” Li Laidi said with a smile. “My mother brought some eggs over.”

Li Laidi's family situation was not very good, but her parents' side was much better than her husband's family. When she and Anbang were having a hard time, her mother would have her brother bring over some eggs and some flour from time to time.

Her mother-in-law didn’t. Li Laidi couldn’t hope for anything from her and she didn’t say anything about it. It would be good if her mother-in-law didn’t make a fuss.

“She loves her daughter.” Mother Su smiled and nodded. “Your brother is an adult this year, right?”

“He is, he is already eighteen,” Li Laidi said. “Would you like to introduce someone to my brother?”

“I’m not introducing anyone. I just want to ask if your dad is free now. Jianyun is short of a guard,” Mother Su said.

Li Laidi understood the purpose of her fifth aunt's visit today. She was here to introduce her father to a job!

“Aunt, don't look for anyone else. I'll go home and ask today!” Li Laidi was overjoyed and said quickly.

“I just want to ask first. Jianyun's requirements are relatively high,” Mother Su said. “He must be honest and kind, and you can't steal. Otherwise I would not agree to it.”

“Don't worry, fifth aunt. My father has been doing farm work all his life and he is an honest man. He is suitable for this job,” Li Laidi rushed to reply.

“Okay, go back and talk about it. Based on the rules, the current salary would be five yuan lower than the permanent workers who have been there longer. It will be 35 yuan. After working for half a year, the salary will be the same as everyone else's. If he wants to do this, then he can go to Jianyun and talk to him about it,” Mother Su said.

“Okay!” Li Laidi nodded.

After Mother Su finished, she went back. Li Laidi didn't wait. She was afraid that someone else would get to it first. She quickly carried her daughter back to her parents' home.

When she went back to her parents' house and talked to them, Mother Laidi was very happy. “Really? Laidi, are you sure this is true?”

“I came here immediately to tell you. Father has to go there if he wants to do it. Please go back with me first. When Anbang comes back in the evening, I'll ask Anbang to take you there. He has a good relationship with the boss and can vouch for you. Father, since it’s work, we can’t do taboo things we shouldn’t do. If you don’t follow the rules, then you won’t be able to do this job.” ALthough Li Laidi appeared soft and weak, she would say what needed to be said.

“Don't worry, just ask Anbang to help your father. He will keep the orchard safe for your boss!” Mother Laidi said.

“Yes, I can do the job well!” Father Laidi also nodded.

He was 53 this year, so he could definitely do it.

His son was already eighteen years old, and the family didn’t have any more children. In two or three years, his son would have to marry a wife. When it was time, where would they find someone?

His wife was talking about this before going to bed last night.

Father Laidi decided to take on the job and he was also happy.

When Su Anbang came back from work in the evening, he saw his father-in-law there.

He had a very good impression of his father-in-law. He liked him and was willing to let him marry his wife for nothing. In the time that followed, the family’s conditions were not very good, but his father-in-law and mother-in-law would bring over some grain and eggs.

So he really liked his wife’s family.

“Father, why are you here? I'll ask Laidi to cook something delicious tonight!” Su Anbang said with a smile.

“I’m not going to eat right now. Take me to your boss's house for a visit.” Father Laidi and Li Laidi had the same idea. They wanted to quickly take up the job, and not lose out to anyone else.

Su Anbang was surprised.

Li Laidi told him what Mother Su stopped by to talk about and Su Anbang's eyes lit up. “Okay, father. Let's go, I'll take you there. I have a very good relationship with the boss, so you will definitely get the job.”

“Don't worry. Father will work hard. With so much money made in a month, you have to be worthy of the job,” Li Laidi said.

“I know what’s expected,” Father Laidi said.

Su Anbang brought his father-in-law over.

Ji Jianyun happened to be at home. He was building a home for the puppies. Xiao Bai from the first orchard gave birth to a litter of three dogs. He was taking them back to raise and then they would be sent to the third orchard.

As for who was going to guard the orchard, he left it to his mother-in-law since she was good at finding good people.

And if this kind of thing was left to his mother-in-law to decide, wouldn't it elevate his mother-in-law's reputation?

Ji Jianyun knew something was up when he saw Su Anbang bringing over an old man who Ji Jianyun had met but couldn't remember the name of.

After some introductions, they got to talking about the job.

“Boss, is there a spot missing in the orchard? Take a look at my father-in-law for the job. My father-in-law works very carefully. He will definitely take care of the orchard for you,” Su Anbang said.

“Okay.” Ji Jianyun said with a smile. “We can try it out for half a year. During the half a year, the salary will be 35 yuan per month. After that, it will be the same as everyone else.”

“Okay.” Father Laidi nodded.

“You can go home three days a month. If you don't have anything important to do, please don't ask to take consecutive days off. Uncle Li, you can arrange for when you want to take it,” Ji Jianyun said.

He was still pretty fair. Li Laid's father was from Li Zhi’s village, which was Dawan Village. It was close by, so he could still go back to eat.

“Boss, what about meals?” Su Anbang asked.

“We eat on the mountain at seven o'clock in the morning, twelve o'clock at noon, and five thirty in the evening. It's always at this time. My mother prepares it. She will have my uncle deliver it to Uncle Li. You can just bring a change of clothes, everything else will be available on the mountain. You must heat up the water for bathing and to wash your own clothes,” Ji Jianyun said.

Everything on the mountain was ready, including the shower and toilet.

If he hired someone to guard the orchard for him, he had to make the living conditions good, right?

“When will I come over to start working?” Father Laidi asked.

“Tomorrow,” Ji Jianyun said.

Since he was going to expand the chicken farm, he had let some hens brood.

As long as they laid more eggs, they would need to nest. There was no need to go out of their way to do it for the chickens. Chicks have not been born yet, and he had thirty acres of land available.

After the last heavy rain passed, he asked the workers to plant corn, peanuts and soybeans for autumn. It was almost time for harvest. There was a shortage of people, so he asked Father Laidi to help, and he was going to be paid for it.

When this was done, there would be chickens to guard.

Su Danhong said of Ji Jianyun, “The big boss is becoming more and more the ideal boss now.”

Ji Jianyun didn't know how to react, and said the following instead, “Mother-in-law is coming tomorrow, and I have to get some fish and shrimp for her to eat. I'm going to be busy.”
