Become a burden in a period novel

Chapter 215 Dong Shaofang's Recent Situation

The college entrance examination is finally over. Dong Shaofang doesn’t know how she did, but she certainly tried her best.

After the exam, she returned to work in the hemp spinning factory.

She was not short of money, and the job at the hemp spinning factory only gave her a city hukou.

Dong Shaofang's original next goal was to get a house or buy a house. She had already been inquiring about information in this regard, but she did not expect that the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination would come out so early.

Of course, she was unwilling to stay in such a small county town. Apart from anything else, the men here were not as good as those she met in the Qianshan Brigade.

In addition, although the workers at the hemp spinning factory had city household registration, the smell of processing hemp was too strong. When she was first asked to peel hemp, she could hardly breathe.

But there was nothing she could do, as this was the job she was assigned to after she came in. Later, she had to spend money and use her connections to be transferred to another position.

For this, she invested all the money she earned in the black market. However, the hemp spinning mill was so small that she had no way to move up, and she didn't know when she would get a room.

Now that she can take the college entrance examination, she, who has good grades in high school, naturally wants to sign up for the college entrance examination so that she can go to those big cities and have a brighter future.

Dong Shaofang is not satisfied with her current life. It is just a small life and she wants a broader world.

She used to be content to stay in the city, then she felt content with having a job in the county, but now she wants to go to college and start a bigger business.

The business she had done in the black market in the past few years brought her some sweetness, and she also felt the relaxation of policies, so she wanted to do bigger business and have more money.

After packing her things, she prepared to leave work. She was now working in the Propaganda Department of the Hemp Mill.

Although her salary was two yuan less than that of the female workers, she was much more relaxed and had a lot of time to herself, which she used to exchange for money on the black market.

Now that she can take the college entrance examination, she can use her spare time to read more books and try to get into a good university.

After get off work today, she still has to go to the black market. She plans to exchange some of her things for money.

She is confident in her grades. Dong Shaofang had good grades when she was in school, and although she went to the countryside for a few years, she has not completely forgotten them.

In addition, she wanted to go back to the city, so she never gave up studying. Unfortunately, there was no news of job openings in her hometown, and the county town would not wait until she knew about the job openings.

She paid for this job herself, but she did not forget the knowledge she learned, so when she learned that the college entrance examination had been resumed and she picked up her books again, she felt more relaxed than others.

"Shaofang, are you going home?" a young man in his early twenties said to Dong Shaofang.

He was also in the Propaganda Department. Unlike Dong Shaofang, an educated youth from outside the province, he was a factory employee, so after graduation he was admitted to the factory's Propaganda Department and became an officer.

He entered the factory earlier than Dong Shaofang, but he didn't have a girlfriend. After Dong Shaofang entered the Propaganda Department, he developed some feelings for her, but even though he expressed it, Dong Shaofang did not accept it.

"Yeah." Dong Shaofang didn't really want to pay attention to him.

This person's conditions are actually quite good, but they are far inferior to Xie Chengxuan.

After entering the hemp spinning factory, there were people who introduced potential partners to Dong Shaofang, but with the example of Xie Chengxuan, she was not very interested in the ones these people introduced.

"Are you still living in Sister Chen's house?"

"Yes, Mrs. Chen's house is pretty good." Where else can I live? The staff dormitory?

Four people live in one room with no private space at all. How can she make money?

She is not from here, and she has no intention of buying a house here, so renting a house is naturally the best option for her.

She was used to living in Mrs. Chen's house, and she wouldn't have such good conditions if she moved to other places.

"It's not good to live in someone else's house all the time." The man advised.

If you don't live in someone else's house, then where can you live?

"Is the factory going to distribute housing?" Dong Shaofang asked in confusion. "Secretary Qian is well-informed. Does he have any inside information?"

"I...there is no news of housing allocation from the factory, and..." And even if there is housing allocation, Dong Shaofang does not meet the requirements.

Seeing his hesitation, Dong Shaofang understood, "Since the factory doesn't provide housing, where can I live? I'm an educated youth from another place, I have no relatives or friends here, where can I live if I don't rent a house?"

"You can find someone who has a house to live in!" For example, he, because his parents both worked in the factory, had two rooms, one for his parents and one for him.

If Dong Shaofang marries him, she will have a house to live in. If she rents a house, she will have to pay a portion of her monthly salary to others, which is a big loss!

The rent money can be used to buy meat for the family to eat for several meals. Didn’t you see that Chen Saozi used the money and rent money given by Dong Shaofang to cure her husband?

Not only did they cure him, but they also often bought delicious food for him to nourish his body. We all lived in the same alley, so almost everyone knew what they ate.

As for Dong Shaofang, she had a lot of money. Mrs. Chen's work was sold at such a high price, but she took it out without blinking an eye. Later, she even used the money to rent a room in Mrs. Chen's house.

Later, her clothes, daily necessities, food and daily necessities all showed that she was not short of money.

This is also the reason why people have been introducing potential partners to her since she entered the hemp spinning factory.

A rich woman whose parents live in another city and who has her own job, how suitable she is to be a daughter-in-law!

He thought so too, but no matter how she tried to please him, Dong Shaofang remained unmoved.

"I'm not ready to find a partner yet, and I certainly won't find a partner who's not as good as me." Dong Shaofang looked at the man opposite her and saw his intentions from his eyes.

"I have already signed up for the college entrance examination. If I pass, I will go to university and leave this county. Why should I look for a partner here?"

After Dong Shaofang finished speaking, she left without even looking at the expression on the man opposite her.

These people don’t look that good, but they think they are beautiful!

They don't have any good conditions, but they want to interfere in her life. This is not a big deal. If they really have a relationship, I don't know how they will manage me!

Dong Shaofang had always looked down on these people, and now that she had money, she looked down on them even more. When she got into college, she would meet more outstanding people, so why should she settle for less!

Dong Shaofang walked straight out of the factory. She was disgusted by this man, so she had to buy something to relax.
