Chapter 151 Is this all you can do?
On June 55, 6 (the 18th day of the fourth lunar month), the State Council issued the “Notice on the Implementation of Wage System for All State Organ Staff.”
The notice stipulates that from July onwards, the lump-sum treatment system previously implemented for some staff members of state organs will be changed to a salary-based treatment system.
All living expenses of staff members and their families, including living in public housing, using public furniture, using water and electricity, etc., will be borne by themselves, and all current lump-sum expense regulations will be abolished.
国家机关工作人员的工资标准分29级，最高一级为649．6元，最低29级为21元。
State-owned enterprises and public-private joint ventures also changed their wage systems.
For the worker group, first-level workers earn 33 yuan per month, second-level workers earn 40 yuan per month, and eighth-level workers earn 99 yuan per month.
The salary of Zhou's father and Zhou Jiahua was changed to 33 yuan per month.
Last year, Zhou Jiafu was commended by the government for his hard work and was admitted into the Youth League. He has been promoted to team leader and earns 40 yuan a month.
Currently, the wages of people engaged in direct production are generally higher than those of people indirectly engaged in social production.
According to regulations, Zhou Gui, as a clothing store manager, has a monthly salary of 37.5 yuan, and Zhou Rong, as a financial manager, has a monthly salary of 43 yuan. If she gets a diploma from night university, her salary will be 56 yuan.
However, the two are currently retaining their salaries and there is no change for the time being...
Every time Zhou Rong went to Jiangcheng University to report on his academic progress, he would bring gifts for Meng Anpu, Dong Huiru and his class teacher Qin Yanhua.
They were all home-cooked food, such as marinated fish cubes, crispy radishes, salted eggs, etc. The quantities were not large, so they were put into a small canning bottle after being cleaned. Each person also had two salted eggs.
The items were not expensive, and Zhou Rong spoke very nicely, so I would feel sorry for her if I didn't accept them.
There is no teacher who dislikes a student who is good at academics and knows how to get along.
Zhou Rong mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that he had two younger sisters who were very talented and were attending night school and wanted to pursue further progress.
The three men revealed to her that they would wait until the end of July, when the night school exams were over, and then they would look at Zhou Gui and Zhou Cai's transcripts and then test the two of them individually.
If there is no problem, we will arrange for both of them to study at Jiangcheng University's night school.
The two sisters lived up to everyone's expectations and passed the exam. They will be able to report to school when it starts in September.
When choosing their majors, they all chose accounting at Zhou Rong's suggestion.
The school also agreed that they could study at home, go to school once a week, and complete the assessment...
With two more college students in the family, Zhou's father and mother were very happy. They prepared a table of food to celebrate and bought a bottle of "Heli" soda for each of them.
The weather was hot, so everyone ate while fanning themselves with palm-leaf fans.
Zhou Gui held up the soda bottle and said, "Sister, I toast to you. Thank you for everything you have done for us."
Zhou Cai: "I salute you, too! I thought I would have to go through a lot of trouble to attend night college, and maybe I wouldn't be able to get in at all. I didn't expect that my wish would come true so soon. Thank you for running around for us."
Zhou Rong smiled and said, "We are a family, so there is no need to be so polite. If you guys do well, I can also benefit from it, right?"
Mother Zhou: "I hope you will remember what Darong has done for you. You must repay the favor in the future. You can't just talk about it, you must show it with actions."
Zhou Gui and Zhou Cai: “We all remember it.”
Big Baby: "Mom, my second aunt, and my third aunt are all so great. I want to learn from you and get into college in the future!"
Zhou Rong smiled and asked, "If you get into college, what do you want to study?"
The eldest child thought for a while and said, "The teacher said that many people want to bully us, but our country has experienced many years of war and is very poor and industrialized.
If you lag behind, you will be beaten. The reason why we can sit at home safely now is the result of the bloody battles fought by the PLA soldiers on the front line.
When I get into college, I will invent some powerful weapons to beat up the bad guys who bullied us, so that they will never dare to bully us again, and I will also avenge the soldiers who died!"
Zhou Rong gave Da Wa a thumbs up and praised, "Our Da Wa is awesome! Your dream is great, and Mom supports you.
To realize this dream, you need to make great efforts and read a lot of books. The knowledge in books alone is not enough. I will go to the mall someday and buy you some books. You can read them in your spare time."
Big Baby: “Okay.”
Ever since Zhou's father and mother came to Jiangcheng, Zhou Jiaguang thought he could be free and no longer be "enslaved", but the reality was very cruel, it seemed like he had a pair of fake parents.
The love and care from before is no longer there. No matter how he acts like a spoiled brat, he still has to do his share of the work.
The reason given by Zhou's mother was that this was Zhou Rong's home and the rules set by Zhou Rong should apply.
He also said that if he learned to do housework, he wouldn't go hungry when his parents and relatives were not around.
When Zhou Jiaguang thought about the changes in his parents, he felt depressed. He took a bite of rice and said sadly, "The goal I set for myself is to grow up quickly, find a job, support myself, and not be despised by you.
After hearing Da Wa’s dream, I feel like I’m hopeless and might end up begging for food. If you run into me on the street, just pretend you don’t know me and give me some face.”
Erwa said, "Then I'll go with you and keep you company so that you won't be bullied."
Everyone: "..."
Zhou Gui: "Is this all you can do? Was all the things I taught you in vain?"
Zhou Cai: "That's right, I worked so hard to help you with your homework, but your biggest dream is to beg for food?!"
Zhou Rong: "Everyone has their own way of living. Those who like to specialize can do scientific research, and those who are in good health can join the army.
In case you don't know anything, just be a down-to-earth and honest person, don't hurt others, support yourself with your own hands, and don't cause trouble to the country. This is also a disguised way of serving the motherland.
Being not on the list does not mean that there is no way forward. The scraps of society can also become everyone’s little pride.
Going begging is equivalent to giving up on yourself. Once a person gives up on himself, he is not far from death.
Life is just a few short decades, I hope you can live a wonderful life, don't compare yourself with others, do the right things according to your ability, and if you can't do anything, go back to the countryside to farm, you will definitely not starve to death."
Zhou Jiaguang lowered his head and said ashamedly: "I'm sorry, big sister. It's been too hot recently, and I'm irritable. My parents don't love me as much as before, so I have those thoughts. I will change slowly."
Erwa also apologized: "Mom, actually I haven't decided what to do yet. I will follow my uncle's words. When I go to school, I will learn from my elder brother and go to college when I grow up to win glory for my country."
Zhou Jiaguang's words made his mother a little sad: "It's not that I don't love you, I just want you to learn more skills so that you can live a good life with your own abilities when you grow up, instead of relying on your brothers and sisters for support."
Father Zhou: "You have always been my favorite son, don't let your imagination run wild."
Zhou Rong picked up a piece of meat for Zhou Jiaguang and said with a smile: "Don't be sad, wash the dishes after dinner, and when I take a break, I will take you to go boating."
Zhou Jiaguang's eyes lit up immediately: "Really?"
Zhou Rong: "When have I ever lied to you?"
Zhou Jiaguang: "Hehe! The one who has the most say in our family is my eldest sister. I was just joking with you. My scores in this final exam are all above 85 points. With such good grades, how can I beg for food? I must be an official!"
Everyone: "..."
