The next morning, before going to work, Wang Jianjun could only stop in front of the enthusiastic third aunt. He exchanged a few pleasantries before walking to the factory.
When he entered the workshop, he found that many workers were gathered together and arguing noisily.
"Master, what are you doing over there? Surrounded by so many people?"
Wang Jianjun asked his master, Zhao Jianshe, after he walked to his work desk.
" Hey, there's a female worker in the workshop today. She's quite good-looking, so these people are all working hard to become her master. They don't even think about it. She was brought here by Yi Zhonghai. Even if she's looking for a master, it's not their turn in terms of seniority or relationship.”
After hearing his master's words, Wang Jianjun knew who it was. It must be Qin Huairu. However, it had only been a few days since the little locust flower was born. Why was it working in the factory so quickly?
If it was true, then the Old Merchant's mother and son were really not good people. No matter how good Qin Huairu's physical condition was, she would have to come back after her confinement.
However, thinking about what Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu usually did, they might really do such a thing.
This had nothing to do with him. Wang Jianjun couldn't be bothered to worry about it. After all, there weren't any good people in that family, including Qin Huairu.
Fortunately, those people still knew the rules of the factory. When they heard the bell ring, they stopped arguing and returned to their posts.
Just as everyone was busy working, they suddenly heard the workshop director's voice.
"Everyone, please stop for a moment. I'll introduce a newcomer to everyone. From now on, Comrade Qin Huairu will be working in our workshop. She's replacing her husband, Jia Dongxu. Everyone knows what happened a while ago, so I won't say much here.”
" In addition, I heard that there are quite a number of old masters who are vying to be Qin Huairu's master. Let me tell everyone here that there's no need to fight. Qin Huairu will be learning from Yi Zhonghai from now on. If you don't work hard, what are you thinking about?”
"Alright, that's all I have to say. Everyone, hurry up and get to work. If we can't complete the task, then our workshop will lose a lot of face.”
After the workshop supervisor finished speaking, he left. Qin Huairu naturally followed Yi Zhonghai and learned from him.
Upon seeing this, Wang Jianjun was indeed a little stunned. He didn't expect Qin Huairu to really come to work. He thought that he was here to settle the procedures today.
What he didn't know was that it was Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu who had decided to let Qin Huiru go to work the night before.
This family was really the best. Ever since Jia Dongxu came back from the hospital, their family had been improving their food every two or three days. Today, they would stew chicken, and two days later, they would buy some meat. The reason was that Jia Dongxu had suffered such a big injury, so he had to make up for it.
That was reasonable, but everything should be based on the actual situation. Her family did not have much savings to begin with. Now, half of the 200 yuan compensation from the factory had been spent in less than two months.
Of course, there was something fishy about this. Every time Jia Zhangshi went to buy vegetables, she would deduct a portion and secretly save it for herself.
Last night, when Jia Zhangshi was about to take the money to buy vegetables as usual, she realized that there was not much compensation left in the factory. This time, she was really anxious.
She didn't dare to buy meat, so she bought some cabbage. This naturally caused Jia Dongxu and the stick to be dissatisfied.
That was true. As the saying went, it was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it was difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. After being used to living a good life, it was difficult for anyone to accept that they had suddenly returned to the days before liberation.
"Mom, why are you only buying cabbage tonight? Didn't you say you wanted to buy meat?”
Jia Dongxu, who was angry in his heart, didn't speak so politely to Jia Zhangshi and directly asked.
"Do you think I want to eat cabbage? It's all because we're running out of money. If we continue to eat like before, our family will have to beg in a few days.”
"No way, 200 yuan was spent so quickly?”
"No, but there's less than 100 yuan left. Don't forget that we don't have a source of income now. If we spend all of it, will our family really go begging? I can't afford to lose face.”
Hearing this, those who didn't know better would think that Jia Zhang-shi was very thrifty.
"You're right. Huairu, why don't you start work tomorrow? Although he was an apprentice when he first entered the factory, he could more or less help his family.”
Without money, Jia Dongxu immediately turned his attention to Qin Huairu. After all, she was the most suitable person in the family.
"Dongxu, it's only been a few days since I gave birth to the locust flower. No matter how anxious I am, I should wait until I'm out of confinement.”
Qin Huairu was naturally unwilling, but she had forgotten that she had no right to speak in this house.
"I say, why are you so pretentious? Those women in the countryside can start working the next day after giving birth. Why can't you do it? I think you're used to living a good life and don't want to suffer anymore.”
Jia Dongxu was still thinking about how to persuade his wife when Jia Zhangshi immediately followed his words and began to attack Qin Huairu. When Jia Dongxu heard that, he naturally followed his mother's rhythm.
"Yeah, Huai Ru, actually the workshop isn't as tiring as you think. You're just a little apprentice, and you don't have to do any work for any tasks. You can say that you're just going there to laze around, just like you at home.”
"But as long as you stay in the workshop, the factory will pay you. Also, the food in the factory is not worse than at home. The chef is Silly Zhu. We're all neighbors.”
In order to get Qin Huairu to go to work, Jia Dongxu had put in a lot of effort. Other than Silly Zhu, who would take care of this, he was just spouting nonsense.
However, Qin Huairu didn't know that. She had never been to a factory before. Besides, Jia Dongxu didn't seem to be overworked when he came back every day. She really believed him.
"Then I'll go to work. What about the locust flower? She was still so young. She couldn't eat corn paste every day like an adult, right?”
This was also the main reason why Qin Huaizhou could not make up his mind. She truly loved her children to the bone.
"Hey, I thought you were worried about something. You feed her in the morning and squeeze some out to save. I'll heat it up for her at noon. You'll be back at night. It won't delay anything.”
How could a newborn eat three meals a day? They had to eat whenever they were hungry. However, Qin Huairu had no choice. After all, their family was running out of money.
"Alright, I'll go to work tomorrow. As for the small locust flower, that's the only way.”
Hearing that Qin Huairu had agreed, the mother and son of the Jia family were overjoyed. However, Jia Dongxu also knew that it was not easy to slack off in the workshop, so he had to find a backer for Qin Huairu.
After pondering for a moment, he thought of Yi Zhonghai. He was his master in the past, the master of the courtyard, and a level-eight fitter. He was also very good at talking in the workshop.
To put it bluntly, if there was really an urgent task, even the workshop director would have to look at his expression.
In the past, Jia Dongxu was able to cheat in the workshop because of his master's cover.
"Mom, although Huai Ru has agreed to go to work, she still lacks a capable master. The two of you go find a master now and let Huai Ru take him as her master. That way, she won't be bullied in the workshop and can learn real skills.”
Hearing her son's words, Jia Zhangshi's eyes immediately lit up. Why didn't she think of this?
The richest person in this courtyard was definitely Yi Zhonghai. He earned more than he spent, so he probably had a lot of savings.
If Qin Huairu could acknowledge him as her master, she would be able to bask in some glory in the future.
"You're right, Huai Ru. Let's go now and settle this matter tonight. You'll go to work with Yi Zhonghai tomorrow morning.”
"Okay, Mom."
Qin Huairu had no objections to Yi Zhonghai being her teacher. In her simple understanding, if one wanted to be his teacher, they had to find the most powerful person, and Yi Zhonghai was one of them.
When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law arrived at the first uncle's house, they told him the actual situation of their family and cried for a while. Yi Zhonghai agreed.
He had no choice but to agree. Yi Zhonghai understood Jia Zhangshi's character too well. If he dared to disagree today, he believed that Jia Zhangshi would definitely not let his family live in peace.
In addition, there was still a little bit of incense on Jia Dongxu's side. No matter from which perspective, agreeing was the best choice.
