Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 341: Chapter 341: Future Wife

Yao Zhenjiang knew that Gu Lingling had her heart set on studying, so when he learned about this matter, he didn’t want Gu Lingling to take the exam.

Getting a permanent position at the transformer factory is a good thing, but he hoped his granddaughter could learn more, as they didn’t need Gu Lingling’s salary.

”Have you made up your mind?” Yao Zhenjiang asked.

”Of course, I’ve thought it through. Once I start earning a salary, I can buy nice things for you and Grandma,” Gu Lingling said with a smile.

Yao Jingsong pouted on the side.

Why the preferential treatment?

Before the recruitment announcement was even posted, Yao Zhenjiang had already spoken to him to take the exam and get a job at the factory.

But when it came to Gu Lingling, he couldn’t bear to let her go?

Sigh... other families favor boys over girls, so why is it reversed in their family?

”Why are you sighing?” Yao Zhenjiang shot a sharp glance, ”Where have you been these past few days?”

You’re nowhere to be seen all day, this attitude needs some curbing, or it will cause trouble in the future.

”Hehe, I...I just went out for a stroll.” Yao Jingsong realized the situation wasn’t right, and decisively turned and ran.

If he stayed any longer, the nagging Gu Lingling would start to scold him too.

So it’s better to make a strategic retreat.

”That’s fine too.” Yao Zhenjiang said, ”This time, there’s an added advantage of prioritizing the children of factory workers. Only if none of them qualify will there be external recruitment.”

After all, they are all children of the transformer factory workers, aren’t they?

Thinking about it this way increases the chances of success.

Meanwhile, someone in Capital City was still waiting for a call from Gu Lingling but didn’t realize that this little girl had dived into her exam preparation and hadn’t called Liu Yating once.

”Hey...” In the evening, Yang Yunhai stopped Liu Yating, who was about to go upstairs, ”How’s your studying going recently?”

He knew if Liu Yating encountered any difficulties in her studies, she would go to Gu Lingling for help.

Liu Yating looked suspiciously at her cousin, ”It’s going well.”

”Can you understand everything?” Yang Yunhai asked again.

”It’s not too difficult.” Liu Yating looked confused, wondering what was wrong with her stoic cousin, who was suddenly concerned about her studies, ”Brother Hai, what’s wrong with you?”

Yang Yunhai, with frustration evident on his face, walked past Liu Yating, then... quietly went upstairs.

”Yating, why haven’t I heard you on the phone with your friend recently?” Downstairs, Zheng Xiangjun, mindful of her grandson’s pride, tried hard not to laugh.

Burying his head in the sand for just appearances, what a guy.

”Grandma, are you talking about Lingling?” Liu Yating said at the foot of the stairs, ”She did call me a few days ago, saying she would take their transformer factory exam.”

However, no one else was home at that time, it was just her, and since Gu Lingling was busy with her studies, they didn’t talk for long before hanging up.

Someone who had stopped on the stairs to eavesdrop looked gloomier.

He wasn’t even there when she called!

The transformer factory?

From what he knew, getting into that factory was tough; the workshop work mainly involved physical labor.

What could a little girl with such skinny arms and legs do there?

Yang Yunhai couldn’t help but imagine a scene in his mind: one day, as he held her delicate little hand, the picture shifted, and that delicate little hand was covered with calluses, even more than his own.

Yang Yunhai shook his head, thinking, a little girl should be cherished, how could she go to such a harsh place like the transformer factory?

If their family lacked money, he could support them.

He was more than willing to pamper his future wife.
