"Auntie, why are you teasing me too?”Wu Kui saw that it was a middle-aged woman and took the initiative to open the stove for her.
An auntie was here to cook for the deaf old lady as usual.
All this while, only an old man and an old woman had been taking care of the Deaf Old Lady.
"Child, why can't I tell you something good?”A middle-aged woman laughed at Wu Kui as she nimbly boiled water to cook.
It was rare for Wu Kui to come to the old lady's room in the morning, and an auntie happened to have something to remind Wu Kui about.
"Auntie, what's the matter?" Wu Kui could not help but become curious when he saw the auntie's serious tone.
He guessed that what the auntie was going to say was probably related to the well-informed First Uncle.
First Uncle was a grade-8 worker in the rolling mill. He was considered an elder. Even the workshop director had to take care of him.
It was normal to occasionally get some news earlier.
"I heard it from your uncle. It's just that your factory is going to be evaluated as a model at the end of this month. Wu Kui, I feel that you youngsters have the most hope for this! Before it spreads, you have to prepare well!”Sure enough, the auntie's words were almost the same as Wu Kui's guess.
There was no one in the world who did not like a raise in salary, but a middle-aged woman was not sure if this was true, which made Wu Kui feel a little awkward.
"Don't worry, Auntie. I'll definitely take this matter to heart!”However, Wu Kui still nodded, indicating that he had listened.
As for the specifics, he would confirm it with the First Uncle later.
Once he confirmed that there was such a thing, Wu Kui did not want to miss it.
The rolling mill was not a small affair.
This selection was definitely an excellent opportunity.
Who wouldn't work themselves to death just to get more salary!
Not only Wu Kui, but many people in the entire factory were desperate for a raise!
Take the people in the courtyard house for example, at least five or six of them worked in the rolling mill.
First, Xu Damao.
He was a movie projectionist. Although he earned extra money from going to the countryside all day long, he definitely wanted to support his salary and have some face.
And this time, it was a model award. What a resounding reputation!
Wu Kui estimated that even if Xu Damao filled in Lou Xiao'e's dowry, he would definitely not let go of this opportunity.
Others might not know, but Wu Kui knew Xu Damao too well.
This was a person who would do anything for the sake of face, especially when it came to trickery, making his opponents suffer.
If his old rival, He Yuzhu, did not have the support of the deaf old lady and the big leader, he might have been overturned a few times!
Speaking of which, He Yuzhu was also a potential competitor.
Although he was a chef and his salary wasn't low, he didn't have a family.
Even if he wanted to give it to Widow Qin, he had to have some stock!
Moreover, he had a bunch of disciples under him. Just canvassing for votes was enough to leave others behind.
Even Qin Huairu, who was He Yuzhu's neighbor, was slightly more competitive.
Although Wu Kui did not know how capable she was at work, Qin Huairu was indeed very good at making use of her innate advantages.
In addition, Qin Huairu's salary was not high, and her family had a large population. She might even coax the most capable He Yuzhu to give up her spot.
Compared to these heavyweights, the silent First Uncle and the impatient Second Uncle were already the first wave to be slapped on the beach.
In just a few seconds, Wu Kui had already considered the situation in the courtyard.
But he was not afraid at all.
Who in the world didn't have two trump cards!
At most, he would take a gamble and turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!
"It's getting late, Grandma. I'll go to work then! By the way, I'll prepare the dishes tonight. Auntie, come to this room with me for dinner!”Wu Kui was clear-headed. He took his toolbox and left after giving instructions to the old lady and the middle-aged woman.
"His auntie, Xiao Kui is really an adult now. Look at the pancakes he's making. His cooking is even better than yours!”The Deaf Old Lady looked at Wu Kui's back in a daze.
Today, Wu Kui's speech and behavior were exceptionally reliable.
This half-grown child really grew stronger with the wind!
"It's good for the child to grow up! When you grow up, you'll be someone to rely on!" A middle-aged woman skillfully kneaded the dough in the basin and replied casually.
"Yeah, the child used to be young and tender, but now he's promising!”The Deaf Old Lady nodded.
"Aiyo, old lady, your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings! We should be happy that our child knows how to show filial piety!”A middle-aged woman saw the old lady's melancholy expression and threw down the dough to coax her.
"Of course I'm happy! However, if you've used up all the noodles, how will Kui Zi cook at night?”
The Deaf Old Lady looked at her empty pockets and knocked her walking stick angrily.
"Aiyo, look at my memory. Come to our room and get some rice. Let's eat rice tonight, okay?”
"That's more like it!"
……
Wu Kui didn't know that the moment he left the house, the old lady and an auntie started worrying about dinner.
"Are you sure it's true? That's great!" He had just gotten a definite answer from an old man and was extremely excited.
The first uncle told him that the director had personally said that the factory would be evaluated as a model. Moreover, the factory director would personally issue an honorary letter.
This was definitely the case!
"Wu Kui, you're usually so quiet. Why are you so proactive today?”First Uncle was a little surprised when he saw Wu Kui rubbing his fists.
"I didn't understand it in the past, but now I understand! In the future, I still have to be filial to you two. How can I not earn money properly!”Wu Kui chuckled and teased.
"Come on, stop being so poor and get to work!”First Uncle couldn't help but laugh.
However, although First Uncle didn't say it, he was actually happy.
As Wu Kui's master, he usually took good care of Wu Kui. He arranged technical work for him, but today, he had made an exception.
When Wu Kui worked until noon, he was about to go to the cafeteria to get food when he was caught by an old man.
"Wu Kui, finish your work in the afternoon and you can get off work early!”The first uncle looked at Wu Kui's sweaty face and instructed him.
"Thank you, Master. I promise to complete the mission!”Wu Kui nodded immediately.
He had worked hard for the whole morning. To be honest, he was very tired.
Thinking that he would be able to arrange his time freely soon, Wu Kui immediately arranged his afternoon schedule in his heart.
When he was done, he would definitely go to the market to buy some seeds and plant the two mu of land as soon as possible.
How should he put it? Once the vegetable growing gene was awakened, there would be an unstoppable drive!
Moreover, when Wu Kui entered the space in a secluded place at noon, he saw that the corn planted in the morning had already grown to half the height of a person, and there were whiskers on the corn cobs.
Based on this momentum, Wu Kui would definitely be able to harvest the first batch of food at night!
"The tender corn is delicious, and the old corn is easy to put in!”Wu Kui imagined the scene of a bumper harvest. He was so excited that he even gave up on his lunch break.
He wished he could fly to the market and buy all the seeds he could.
Therefore, before three in the afternoon, Wu Kui packed up his toolbox and prepared to leave.
"Hey, is there someone called Wu Kui in your workshop? Wu Kui, come out for a moment. I have something to tell you!”At this moment, someone called Wu Kui's name at the door of the workshop.
Judging from the voice, it was not a familiar person.
Even the first uncle stopped what he was doing and looked over.
