Volume 1 Chapter 11 Determining Work

"How is it? What do they say over there?"

Grandma Sheng was afraid that this plan would fail, so she was absent-minded at home the whole day.

Grandpa Sheng was also looking at her with a frown. After all, if this job had no hope, she would really have to get married.

"Mother, it's done."

Grandma Sheng breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It’s good as long as it’s done. It’s good as long as it’s done.

"I will take the food and wait for her at the entrance of the building at ten o'clock tomorrow, and then she will transfer the work to me."

"Let your mother go with you."

It is better to let the daughter-in-law go with her for such an important matter, even though she is impatient.

But he is very smart, a man who is wise but appears foolish.

In case of any special situation, her daughter-in-law can make the decision.

Sheng Wanyan thought about it and agreed. Since she was new to this era, it would be better for her mother to stay with her.

There are still many things she can't solve, but she feels relieved with Mother Sheng around.

"Okay, I'll tell my parents when they come back."

Sheng Wanyan had lunch at home and then went out to the black market.

After entering the space, I put on a different makeup and carried 10 kilograms of rice.

After entering, he found another corner and squatted down. Before Sheng's mother came, he secretly took out 50 kilograms of rice from the space and put it in the backpack.

Sheng Wanyan sold 5 kilograms of cigarettes on the way, and half an hour later, Sheng's mother appeared.

Sheng's mother had been here this morning, observing whether there was any rice, but she waited for a whole morning before she was able to buy 5 kilograms.

It’s still a long way from 50 kilograms.

When Sheng Wanyan saw her walking towards her, she immediately secretly put a few more kilograms of rice in.

There are about 60 kilograms in it, which is enough to meet the mother's needs.

I just bought it and brought it back to feed the two elderly people in my family as fine grains.

When Sheng's mother was about to walk up to her, Sheng Wanyan imitated the voice of a middle-aged woman: "Sister, the best rice."

When Mother Sheng heard this, she immediately stopped and walked towards her.

"Auntie, do you have any rice?"

Mother Sheng didn't recognize Sheng Wanyan at all, her makeup was so realistic.

"Yes, how much do you want?"

Sheng Wanyan opened a corner to show her, and Mother Sheng immediately became excited when she saw so much rice.

"Girl, how do you sell this?"

Sheng Wanyan really didn't want to earn money from Sheng's mother, but she was afraid of being suspected by her: "30 cents a pound, no ticket required."

When Sheng's mother heard her price, she thought it was a great bargain. Usually, the price for food without a ticket is 40 cents per pound.

This girl is so real, is this her first time here?

"Can you give me all of them?"

Sheng Wanyan was waiting for her to say this, she came here just for Sheng's mother.

"Okay, I'll go back to the village early after I finish selling."

When Sheng's mother heard her words, she looked as if it was just as she thought. Generally, only people from the countryside could afford so much rice.

This should be the harvest of this lady's family in the past year. She couldn't bear to eat it, so she sold it for money.

"Here are 60 kilograms. I'll carry them outside for you."

Mother Sheng really didn't expect that this lady was so kind-hearted. She was a little wary in her heart, and she could totally carry it on her back.

"No, I can carry it myself."

Sheng's mother rejected her kindness, took out 18 yuan and gave it to her, then quickly carried it away.

Sheng Wanyan felt a little helpless, and she knew in her heart that her mother was wary.

She could only wait until Sheng's mother left, then she quickly went into the space to remove her makeup, change clothes and rush home.

Her speed was definitely faster than Sheng's mother, and Sheng's mother was stopped by her halfway through her walk.

"Mom! Carry it for me."

Mother Sheng was shocked. She was so tired that her forehead was covered with sweat in the middle of winter.

When Sheng's mother saw that it was her, she breathed a sigh of relief and they hurriedly carried the things back home.

It's cooking time now and there are not many people outside. If we go back later, the people in the tube building will notice us.

When Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng saw the food, they finally felt relieved.

This can be said to be a sure thing, as long as nothing unexpected happens tomorrow.

Mr. Sheng came back very late today. It was already seven o'clock in the evening when he came back.

Sheng Wanyan quickly cooked him a bowl of hot noodles and added a few pieces of meat and eggs.

Mr. Sheng ate a little too fast and looked very hungry.

Father Sheng had been hungry all day and had already finished the dry food he brought with him.

"Wife, we only bought 20 kilograms. If it doesn't work, we can give you more money."

While eating, Mr. Sheng explained his situation.

But he didn't hear any response from his wife. When he raised his head, he saw his wife looking at him with some pride.

Father Sheng knew at a glance that his wife had made some progress today. It turned out that his wife was really amazing.

"Wife, you... bought it?"

Father Sheng's tone was full of uncertainty. Mother Sheng raised her chin proudly: "Don't you see who I am?"

Father Sheng smiled instantly, stopped eating, and hurried to the kitchen to check the food.

Seeing dozens of kilograms of white rice, he felt that he had never been so happy in his life except for getting married.

"Wife, you are so awesome!"

Mother Sheng felt very happy to hear his praise. How could it not be great after running all day?

She didn't expect that she was so lucky. She happened to meet the lady selling rice today.

"I'll go with Yan'er tomorrow. Have you made an appointment there?"

While packing her things, Sheng's mother asked about Sheng Wanyan's situation.

"We've made an appointment for tomorrow morning at ten o'clock. The contact person told her that I'm her niece."

After hearing this, Sheng's mother nodded. No matter who her relative was, as long as she could get the job, nothing would be a problem.

Mr. and Mrs. Sheng packed out 50 kilograms of rice and put it aside, so they could just take it away tomorrow morning.

The next day, Sheng Wanyan got up, had a few bites with Sheng's mother, and then went out.

When she arrived at the factory compound, she saw the pregnant Wu family daughter-in-law.

Sheng Wanyan walked over, and when the Wu family’s wife saw her, she had the answer in her mind.

"Hello, I'm Sheng Wanyan."

"This is my mother."

When the Wu family's wife heard her words, she nodded and watched her carry the food as she led them back home.

"After we count the grain, we'll go to the cotton mill."

"When they ask, just say you are my brother-in-law's niece."

After hearing this, Sheng Wanyan nodded and glanced at Sheng's mother.

Wu's wife opened the fine grain she had carried on her back, confirmed that it was 50 kilograms, and then took them to the cotton mill.

It takes about half an hour to walk to the cotton mill. As soon as they arrived, Wu's wife took her to the logistics department to go through the entry procedures.

“Is this you…?”

"This is my brother-in-law's niece."

The people from the logistics department nodded when they heard this and asked Sheng Wanyan some simple questions.

Knowing that she was a high school graduate, I knew in my heart that she could do the job.

Sheng Wanyan successfully joined the company. She will prepare tomorrow and can come to work the day after tomorrow.

"Your position is a clerk in the propaganda department. Your salary is 20 yuan a month, and you will receive 30 jin of food coupons, one jin of meat coupons, and half a jin of cotton coupons. They will be paid on the 1st of each month."
