Old Lady Ding was reluctant to sell Ding Chengdong's work, but unfortunately, her grandson Ding Chengdong was unreliable. By the next day, when Ding Chengdong needed to return to work, he lay in bed, feigning illness.
Faced with Old Lady Ding's coercion, he wept, "Grandma, I have to carry so many bricks and sand every day. I really can't handle it anymore, I'll die if this continues. Grandma, I haven't yet married and had children to take care of you, I can't die."
Cows won't drink if you can't push their heads down. If Ding Chengdong was unwilling to go, they certainly couldn't carry him there! Moreover, following Secretary Ruan's words, Ding Tangping decided to sell the job.
Secretary Ruan didn't cheat them either. He bought the job at market price, then had his second son follow Ding Chengdong to the construction company to handle the formalities.
