872: Aunt Shi's Request (3 More)
Wei Juanhong was very tired.
The work in the workshop is not as easy as farming, one station is for hours, and one has to concentrate.
A little distracted, the rate of cigarettes being discarded is high, and there is a basket next to each worker, and unqualified cigarettes are thrown into the basket. When I got off work, I saw that Wei Juanhong had the most defective products in the basket.
Wei Juanhong is a newcomer and the widow of a martyr, but no one criticized her for this.
She was purely uncomfortable.
She didn't like the job in the cigarette factory. Zhou Cheng said at the beginning that he would arrange a good job for her, but Wei Juanhong thought it was the kind of easy job where she sits in the office and pours tea for leaders and delivers newspapers.
Unexpectedly, she was leaving the workshop. One stop was a day. Wei Juanhong's feet were swollen after get off work.
Is this a good job?
Wei Juanhong has a lump in her heart. Her mother-in-law chatted with the neighbors, and those people were envious.
If you want Wei Juanhong to say, there is nothing to envy. Zhou Cheng's family is a cadre. Guan Huimo, who often comes to her house, works in the Ministry of Health. Zhou Cheng's father is also a leader. Even Zhou Cheng's object, Xia Xiaolan, has passed It's amazing.
For the Zhou family, the job that the neighbors envied was just a casual take away.
Hearing that Aunt Shi was urging the house again, Wei Juanhong didn't care:
"Mother, I'm a newcomer in the factory, and I will be assigned a house! It's not far from the factory, and Shi Ping and I will arrive at work in half an hour. Wouldn't it be good to live here?"
is good.
Other people's homes are a family squeezed into two rooms, and a yard can live in several households.
Only the Shi family lived in a yard alone. Aunt Shi asked the neighbors for news, and the neighbors also inquired about the origin of the Shi family.
Aunt Shi said that relatives in the family helped rent it, and the neighbors were envious.
"One month's rent is too expensive, and there is still a way to go. The average person can't rent a complete yard. That relative of your family has spent a lot of effort!"
How can there be so many empty yards waiting to be rented out, most of them have been demolished. Who wants to be crowded in the same courtyard with seven or eight families, the noise is louder, and the neighbors next door can hear the movement here.
The benefits of a single-family home can be imagined without having to live there.
This is not a country, but a big city. There are not enough houses to live in, so everyone is forced to crowd together.
Wei Juanhong felt that the work of the cigarette factory was not good enough, but Aunt Shi was very satisfied.
Not only the daughter-in-law has a job, but also the younger son Shi Ping. This kind of job is an iron rice bowl, and Shi Ping will have a future! Don't be afraid to move things, Shi Ping's brain can't do anything else, and people can't starve to death if they have the strength.
Aunt Shi's only concern was the house issue, and she could see that Wei Juanhong didn't want to move out, so Aunt Shi simply wouldn't be offensive.
The next day Wei Juanhong and Shi Ping went to work. Aunt Shi put the two children to sleep and begged others to help her make phone calls. Guan Huimo said that she could be contacted by phone, and Aunt Shi still wanted to ask Guan Huimo for help.
When Guan Huimo received the call, Xia Xiaolan was also at Zhou's house. This time, Xia Xiaolan brought clothes to Guan Huimo.
Guan Huiye saw a shirt in the Xiushui Street store before, but she lost her size. After waiting for a few days, it was finally in stock. Xia Xiaolan simply drove to her home.
Liu Fen's driving skills are still far from good. Xia Xiaolan has no class hours, so most of the cars are used by her.
Of course, she doesn't go to school.
Guan Huimo received a rare call from Aunt Shi, and Xia Xiaolan was also surprised:
"Shall I take you to see?"
Today is Saturday again. Guan Huimo is going to have a holiday. The factory and workshop are all closed. Wei Juanhong and Shi Ping have to go to work. Only Aunt Shi is at home alone. Xia Xiaolan is also worried about whether Aunt Shi is in trouble.
Guan Huimo was also worried: "Aunt Shi doesn't like to bother people when she has something to do. This is the first time she has taken the initiative to call me."
I only asked her to come over, and I didn't say anything on the phone.
Guan Huimo just heard about Xia Xiaolan's purchase of a car, and she didn't say anything.
If you want to change other people, you may say that Xia Xiaolan is too high-profile, and Guan Huimo clearly distinguishes them. Xia Xiaolan didn't marry Zhou Cheng. She didn't buy a car with the Zhou family's money. She bought the car with the money she earned. Guan Huimo jumped out to accuse her, and she had no position at all.
Besides, this is the advantage of doing legitimate business. Anyone who has doubts about Xia Xiaolan is not afraid. The assets in her name are innocent and can withstand investigation.
"This car is nice and pretty, why did you suddenly remember to buy a car?"
Guan Huimo said this out of sheer curiosity.
Xia Xiaolan told her mother that she wanted to manage two stores, Xiushui Street and Xidan, and she had to go to the bank to save the turnover every day.
"I'm afraid that someone will do something wrong. If you have a car, the safety is better."
Guan Huimo agrees very much.
"Xia Changzheng and his wife were arrested, you and your mother can live a long life in the capital, but unfortunately your cousin Xia Ziyu ran away, and there is no news now."
Xia Xiaolan guessed that Xia Ziyu was probably hidden by Du Zhaohui.
But this is just her guess, and it can't be used as evidence, but saying it makes Guan Huimo upset.
"Even if she runs away, it's useless. She can clearly stand in front of college students. She doesn't like other people living a good life, but she refuses to work hard. She doesn't want to be better than me. Is that enough? As long as she can't be changed by other people's ideas, it will never be the climate."
It's not that you can't rely on others.
No one can fight alone and live in this world, Xia Xiaolan
Also need help from others.
But the help of others, whether it is charitable or icing on the cake, cannot replace one's own ability.
Even the kindness of parents to their children can be interrupted and withdrawn, let alone others?
If Xia Ziyu didn't understand this truth for a day, Xia Xiaolan would never regard the other party as an enemy who needs to be feared!
Guan Huiye watched Xia Xiaolan drive, and was stunned by Xia Xiaolan's casual words.
The confidence in her tone was not given by the Zhou family, but Xia Xiaolan's trust in her own abilities.
Of course Xia Xiaolan has such qualifications, beauty is just her disguise, whoever thinks that Xia Xiaolan is a vase and despise it will definitely regret it.
Xia Xiaolan drove to the place where the Shi family lived, and Aunt Shi had been waiting in the house.
I didn't expect Guan Huimo to arrive so soon, and I didn't expect Xia Xiaolan to accompany her.
Aunt Shi was very ashamed:
"I'm sorry, I didn't want you to run around. I want to go by myself, but I'm afraid I can't find a place."
She is a country woman who is really unfamiliar with the capital. After living for so long, she can walk two streets away to buy food and not lose it.
Guan Huimo shook her head, "Eldest sister, do you need any help? We are not outsiders. If you have something to say, just say it directly, and don't see outsiders."
Aunt Shi rubbed the corners of her clothes:
"It's ridiculous that our family lives here. I just wanted to ask Juanhong and their units if they could divide the house and move to the house in the factory. Only then did I feel at ease."
If it wasn't for knowing how simple Aunt Shi was, Xia Xiaolan would have thought that she wanted a house by retreating.
This is the second time Aunt Shi has asked about the division of the unit.
Xia Xiaolan didn't know the situation of the cigarette factory, so she could only look at Guan Huimo.
