Chapter 4
Ningning brought Su Fei to the front of the most luxurious house in the village. While other houses were made of earth, this one was a three-room brick house. Even so, it was the best house in the village.
The village chief, also surnamed Ning, was a woman in her fifties. She had married two husbands in total, which made her very well-regarded in the village because she had the fewest husbands.
When Ningning and Su Fei arrived, the village chief and her family were having a meal in the courtyard. The village chief sat at the head, and when she saw Ningning and Su Fei, she quickly greeted them.
“Have you eaten at home? If not, please join us for a meal here,” the village chief warmly invited them.
Ningning nudged Su Fei and gestured with her eyes. “No need, we already ate at home,” Su Fei quickly replied politely. Grain was expensive now, so she couldn’t afford to eat freely at someone else’s house.
The village chief and her family were pleased to hear this. With a big smile, the village chief said, “Then, Su Fei, why did you come to see me?”
Su Fei finally came to her senses. Because she realized that this woman was the village chief. Then, feeling a bit embarrassed, she said, “Village chief, I came to find some work.”
The village chief was surprised to hear this. So many good jobs were available, but now she was coming to find work herself. It seemed that the rumors in the village were true. Ningning had really disciplined Su Fei!
The village chief also knew that this was a family matter and it wasn’t appropriate for her to interfere. However, she still had a few tasks to assign. “I have two tasks available now, you can choose. The first one is to be the record keeper of our village, recording everyone’s work points. You’ll record ten work points for each person every day,” she said, looking to see Su Fei’s reaction.
When Ningning heard that it was a super easy job, just writing down some numbers every day, he felt excited. He knew that with education, one wouldn’t be afraid anywhere. Seeing that this lazy woman was getting such a good job, he wanted to signal Su Fei to quickly agree.
Su Fei thought that this job was actually quite easy, but she still wanted to know what the other job was. So she directly asked the village chief, “What is the other job?”
The village chief was delighted to hear Su Fei’s response. Indeed, she was not blinded by small benefits despite being educated. So she said, “This job was originally for my daughter, but now the factories in the city are hiring, so I sent my daughter to work in the factory. Now, there’s an opening for a position as a teacher at our commune’s elementary school. This requires a minimum education of graduating from junior high school. Among the villagers, only you are suitable.”
Ningning was excited to hear about the job as a teacher. It was a good job with salary and benefits.
Su Fei thought that being a teacher was acceptable. However, adhering to the principle of asking questions very carefully like a modern person, she was about to ask about the salary and benefits.
Before Su Fei could speak, Ningning directly said to the village chief, “We choose to be teachers! When should Su Fei start working?”
Su Fei looked at Ningning speaking and immediately closed her mouth. She didn’t dare to object, after all, it was her male god who spoke.
The village chief originally wanted to remind Su Fei that how could a grown woman let a man climb onto her head? She really had no backbone. However, seeing that Su Fei didn’t resist at all, she knew that it was a matter of mutual consent. So she went into the house and took out the employment form, stamped it for Su Fei.
“After the autumn harvest, you can take this employment form to report to the commune elementary school,” the village chief handed the form to Su Fei. It wasn’t that she valued Su Fei highly, but if this matter was known above, and she didn’t choose the person with the highest education in the village besides her daughter, she might be punished. After all, except for her daughter, Su Fei had the highest education.
After receiving the form, Su Fei thanked the village chief profusely. Then she and Ningning left. They were about to start working soon, and they couldn’t delay any longer.
Watching them leave together, the village chief shook her head and said, “I hope Su Fei treats Ningning better.”
Ningning, holding Su Fei’s form, was extremely excited, but he still warned Su Fei to take this job seriously. “If you don’t do well in this job, you may never find another job in your life.”
Su Fei quickly promised to take the job seriously. Whatever it was, she would do her best. Even for herself, she should have some money in her hands.
Ningning went to work, leaving Su Fei alone at home. She cleaned the house and did some housework, prepared the vegetables for lunch, and waited for Ningning to come back from the field to cook.
Su Fei quickly finished these tasks. Then she started to think about what era it was and why the village chief was a woman. Soon, her friends arrived.
Among them was a young educated youth named Liang Hao, who was shocked to see Su Fei doing housework at home. So a few of them women took the opportunity to educate Su Fei.
For example, women were in charge at home, and they could have three or four husbands at most. For example, the poorer the family, the more husbands they could marry.
Su Fei listened while swallowing her saliva. Oh Heavens, such a good thing had happened to her. But she didn’t ask for much, as long as she could marry her male god.
Liang Hao nervously said, “Xiang Xiang, I’ll invite you out tonight.”
Before Su Fei could speak, Ningning returned from outside. Seeing that the visitors were Su Fei’s friends, he widened his eyes.
Su Fei was extremely attentive, fetching water for him. The others could only escape quietly.
Ningning smiled and said, “Xiang Xiang, you have plans tonight? Are you happy? Excited?”
Su Fei couldn’t say anything!
