Reborn in the 80s and Remarrying an Officer, Let the Ungrateful Cry! novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147: Chapter 147: Stirring Up Trouble

"As for Hao Rong’s wife needing a job, we have people in the family compound who handle that. They’ll figure out an arrangement in due time. You just need to wait for a notification. For now, could you please leave?"

Director Xie had already decided he would go talk to Hao Rong later—and tell him to get his mother under control.

’She just got here.’

’She already caused a scene yesterday.’

’And now she’s back to cause another one.’

’If this happens every day, it’s bound to affect others.’

’Especially since they live right next door to Qin Wenhao.’

’This is just unacceptable.’

Mrs. Hao didn’t believe him at all.

’Found the job herself? What a joke.’

’It’s everyone’s first time joining their husbands at the post. Who does she think she’s fooling?’

’Wasn’t it obviously arranged for her in advance?’

’Hmph.’

"—Well, Director, you need to pay more attention to this. My daughter-in-law is very capable. She could be a teacher or something."

Director Xie was baffled. ’...?’

’Teaching jobs are in such high demand. Even if there was an opening, how could it possibly go to Hao Rong’s wife? Plenty of people have had their eyes on those positions for ages.’

He gave a perfunctory nod. "There are dedicated personnel who handle job arrangements for spouses. You should go home for now."

Although Mrs. Hao was resentful, she knew you couldn’t argue with a superior, so she had no choice but to leave, her face etched with displeasure.

When she got home and saw her daughter-in-law’s dejected expression, she grew even more furious.

"Look at you, you useless thing! Look at her—she just arrived, and the unit has already arranged a job for her. And you? You’ve got nothing. All you do is rely on my son to support you."

The younger woman looked up. "Ma, I already asked this morning. Jobs here are hard to find. There are a lot of spouses, and many are still waiting their turn. It’s impossible to get one so quickly—"

"Sister Wang, we’re all waiting in line. It’s not right for her to get a job as soon as she shows up. We won’t stand for it!"

──

One after another, they all chimed in, vehemently voicing their dissatisfaction.

Sister Wang was bewildered. "Everyone, stop shouting! First, can someone please explain to me what’s going on?"

"It’s about Fu Mingxue, Qin Wenhao’s wife who just arrived to join him! How could she get a job the moment she got here? Isn’t that just a slap in the face to all of us who’ve been waiting patiently?"

"Exactly! And what kind of great job sends a car to pick you up? If the jobs were assigned in order, we wouldn’t have a problem with it. But giving one to *her* is just not acceptable."

Sister Wang finally understood what was going on.

"Stop your baseless accusations. I didn’t arrange a job for Qin Wenhao’s wife. Her job had nothing to do with me."

Her words only made some of them even more upset.

"Sister Wang, what’s that supposed to mean? What spouse’s job here *isn’t* arranged by your office?"
