Chapter 1412 Lazy Wife 29
In fact, a lot of things happened in the original body's mother's family, which is normal. After all, over a period of 10 to 20 years, even if something happens every year, it is certain that something will happen over so many years.

It is said that the original body's sister married a state-owned worker in the town. In those days, it was a very glorious thing. After all, people who have a job are different from those who don't.

At that time, my sister came back every year and was completely different from me. Every time I went back to my parents' home, I always looked tattered. Because the Chen family had not split up at that time, I had no money to buy new clothes. When I went home for the New Year, even if I took out my best clothes to wear, I still looked shabby.

The original body's sister was not only wearing brand new clothes, but also putting on makeup. She looked very fashionable. Compared with the original body, there was a world of difference.

In addition, the original body was always ashamed of giving birth to a daughter, and always felt that she could not hold her head up high. When others saw her, she looked timid, which was completely different from the confident and proud appearance of the original body's sister, and her temperament was completely different.

In fact, the original body was stupid. She didn't know to ask her parents for the 200 yuan dowry. Otherwise, at least she would have money and could buy new clothes. Nowadays, money is a person's courage. Without money, it is easy to lack confidence.

If you can get rid of the idea that you feel insecure because you gave birth to a girl, you can live with confidence.

But the original body didn't take any money, and she felt insecure because she had no money. In addition, she gave birth to a girl, so she felt insecure. So when compared with the original body's sister, she looked particularly miserable.

Of course, that was all about the original world.

After Linlang came, although she did not show any financial strength in the first few years, she just divided the family property and built a new house for herself. This was not a big deal in the countryside. After all, who hasn't built a new house in these years?

Even if Linlang's house was demolished a few years later, it wouldn't be a big deal. After all, in the eyes of the original younger sister, their family had a job, which was different from Linlang who didn't. Although the demolition fee of more than 10,000 yuan was a lot, it was a one-time deal. Her husband had a job, and the money was a stable and long-lasting job.

But at least Linlang was wearing new clothes instead of those patched ones, and her spirits and appearance were much better. Compared with her original sister, she didn't look shabby at all. This made her original sister, who was used to the glory, feel unhappy.

Who knew the result could be even worse than this - she also didn't expect that the iron rice bowl would no longer be ironable.

Although the performance of the factory owned by the original brother-in-law had been poor since the 1990s, they all felt that they had a company and there was nothing to be afraid of. Even if it went bankrupt, they could just be assigned to other factories. After all, they had a company and they would not be laid off.

As a result, they were actually fired!

The factory could no longer hold on and closed down. Other state-owned factories were also not doing well, so there was no way to arrange for them to go elsewhere. After all, there were too many workers in various factories, so where could they be placed? They could only be laid off.

Although she was given a lot of compensation - compared to the salary at that time, the compensation was not small. Of course, compared to the salary ten or twenty years later, that little compensation was not enough - but she would no longer have a company and would be the same as everyone else. This made the original sister, who had a company and had a good life for ten or twenty years, unable to accept this change. She also aged a lot in an instant because her husband was laid off and could not find a job for a while.

In fact, it is not that he cannot find a job. Now the market economy is fully alive. If he goes to work, he will definitely find a job. It is impossible for him to be old and have no special skills as he said. Who wants to work? The simplest thing is to work as a laborer on the construction site. You don’t need a special skill. As long as you have the labor force, you can do it, and the salary is not low. However, the original brother-in-law used to be a respectable person in the unit. He couldn’t bring himself to work, especially on the construction site, so he would rather stay at home every day than go out and face other people’s strange eyes.

In fact, it's just a matter of face.

Of course, the main reason is that the situation is not desperate, otherwise no matter how much you care about your reputation, you will still go to work in order to survive.

But the original brother-in-law's family obviously had not reached the point of despair. After all, even if the family's money was spent, he could send his wife to work. In a few years, the children would grow up and be able to work, and the original brother-in-law would not have to work at all, so he naturally felt at ease hiding at home and doing nothing.

As for how his family would live and his children would go to school after the money was all gone, he didn't think about it.

In his opinion, since the money has been spent and there is no money left for his son's studies, he can just stop studying and let his son go to work so that the family will still have money.

People are selfish like this. He would rather his son stop studying and go to work than go to work for fear of losing face.

The husband doesn't work, and the original sister was a housewife and had never gone out to work.

Neither of them works, and relying solely on their savings to make ends meet is naturally a waste of money and they cannot survive. After all, the interest rate for deposits is still low at the moment, and they cannot earn much interest on that little money they save. It is obviously not possible to live on the interest.

But if the original brother-in-law wanted to expect the original sister to go out to work, it would actually be impossible, because he was too concerned about his reputation to go out to work. The original sister, who had never worked outside her life, felt that it was not good for the family to live off the fat of the earth, and was willing to go out to work. However, because she had never worked outside before, she was afraid of looking for a job outside and did not dare to look for one.

In addition, the original sister also cares about her reputation. She doesn't want to work as a waitress in a restaurant or something like that, for fear of being seen and laughed at.

In fact, the original body's parents had mentioned to the original body's sister that she should find Linlang and take handicraft work from her. Although the income was not as much as her husband's previous salary, it was at least an income, and they did not have to leave the house. Both husband and wife could do it without worrying about being laughed at.

However, the original sister was not willing to just ask Linlang for work, but at the same time she also felt that it would be nice to do manual labor at home with her husband without being laughed at, so she went out to find such work herself.

Although mechanization has been slowly developing now, there are still many manual jobs that can be found, so the original body's sister found a manual job for her. The piecework income is not as much as Linlang's, but she can find one that she can do at home with her husband to supplement her income a little, so that the family will eat up the savings at a slower rate, which is also better.

——Yes, they are different from Chen Dasao and others in the past. They are used to a good life and certainly can't stand working from dawn to dusk. They can't even do it like Linlang, because they are used to being idle. Especially the original brother-in-law, he is even more impatient to do any manual work, so the quantity he does is very small. As a result, at the end of a month, the money he earns can't even cover his living expenses, which only serves to supplement the income.
