"Mom, I heard from Xiao Bao this afternoon that he's back from his service but his job hasn't been arranged yet, is that right? What did the textile factory say?" Zhao Xiangguo saw that his mother-in-law was about done with her questions, so he asked about his brother-in-law.
He and his wife had been quite startled when they saw Li Mubo that afternoon. Their little brother, whom they hadn't seen in years—how had he suddenly come home?
It was only after Li Mubo explained a little that they got the gist of the situation.
Apparently, their little brother had already been demobilized and returned home. He hadn't been back for long and was now trying to sort out his job.
They didn't have time to chat in detail then, but now that everyone was free, he brought it up.
Hearing his brother-in-law's words, Li Mubo lowered his head even further. He was mainly just embarrassed.
