In her previous life, Jiang Haitang was an absolute fool. After becoming a widow at barely 16, she never remarried, serving as a blood bag for her in-laws, raising her brother-in-law, taking care o...
Chapter 46 The old man has eaten more salt than you have walked
After coaxing Xiao Taozi, Jiang Haitang returned to the kitchen to continue working.
Super dad Director Lu is busy taking care of his little girl.
"The little girl is sweet-talking and knows how to handle things. Director Lu, learn from your daughter!"
Zhang Shangwen smiled cheerfully and said meaningfully.
"What do you mean?" Lu Liangchen's eyelids flickered and he asked as if he didn't understand.
"I, an old man, have walked across more bridges than you have eaten salt, and I still can't see through your little tricks? Man, if you like her, you have to grab her." Zhang Shangwen raised his eyebrows.
"What do you think, old man, can this be done?" Lu Liangchen asked in a low voice.
"Difficult!" Zhang Shangwen said a word in an enigmatic manner.
Lu Liangchen was anxious. After saying so much, why was it so difficult?
He felt that he had a good height, good looks, a good physique, and a decent position, so why was it so difficult?
"Just figure it out slowly by yourself. Good things take time!" Zhang Shangwen said, and without further ado, he went back to the kitchen.
Young people, what if the old man’s eyesight is not good when he gets old?
He used to be cold towards everyone, as if everyone owed him eight hundred yuan.
When I saw Xiao Jiang, he smiled in such a cheap way, with the corners of his mouth curved so tightly that even the big stone mill at the village entrance couldn't suppress it.
However, Xiao Jiang is a thoughtful girl, and the better the conditions, the less likely she is to agree.
Director Lu is too young to understand that it is because the two families are not a good match that this matter is difficult!
Lu Liangchen thought about it over and over again but couldn't figure it out, so he planned to treat Zhang Shangwen to a drink another day.
While he was wiping Xiao Taozi's mouth with a handkerchief, Zhang Shangwen came over with a plate of buns and a bowl of porridge.
"Director Lu, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? The first basket of buns just came out of the pot, so I brought you a few."
"Your buns are really delicious."
"Eat as much as you can if it tastes good, but don't disturb Haitang."
"I'm an old bachelor with a child, so I have no choice but to disturb her. Especially, I really don't know how to tie her braid. I hope you can be more flexible." Lu Liangchen showed weakness.
"Just find someone to help you, it's no big deal."
"You don't know, Xiao Taozi is stubborn and even I couldn't get Director Liu to help me."
"Xiao Taozi is not a wild child without a mother. Xiao Taozi has a mother. Her mother braids her hair."
Xiao Taozi swallowed the last bite of egg custard and said seriously.
Zhang Shangwen looked at Xiao Taozi, then at Lu Liangchen, and then at the kitchen.
Is this a reliance? He suspected that Xiao Taozi calling Jiang Haitang "Mom" was Lu Liangchen's plan.
snort!
He has evil intentions, is incompetent, and takes advantage of children.
Seeing Xiao Taozi finish her egg custard, Lu Liangchen finished his own breakfast in a few bites and left with Xiao Taozi in his arms.
Zhang Shangwen returned to the kitchen and stared at Jiang Haitang.
"Uncle Zhang, it's so scary when you stare at me like that."
Jiang Haitang felt her hair stand on end, and she had no choice but to speak up.
"Old man, you don't know anything. You work, you work! Zhao Xiufang, that shameless woman, didn't come this morning. I'll punish her when I see her later."
The old man went from the kitchen to the outer room, cursing.
Jiang Haitang couldn't help laughing. It seemed like this old man was at odds with Zhao Xiufang, waiting to find Zhao Xiufang's fault.
Three days later, it was the day for recruitment registration, and Jiang Haitang and Kang Xiaoxia went to the factory office together to register.
This recruitment exam is limited to children of factory employees or factory workers who want to change jobs, so not many people signed up.
There were nine positions and seventy-eight people applied. The acceptance rate was very high, at least much higher than the acceptance rate of external recruitment.
Because they are all children of internal employees, in order to be fair, the factory director has already said that they will be selected based on their grades. If they don’t perform well in the exam, no one can help them.
The job positions are diverse, including factory office, workshop, logistics and other positions.
According to the grades, those with higher grades will be selected first and those with lower grades will be selected later.
Kang Xiaoxia quietly asked Jiang Haitang if she was sure about going to the factory office.
The factory office is the best position. If you can go to the factory office, not only will you be included in the cadre establishment, but your promotion speed will also be much faster.
Jiang Haitang smiled and said, "I don't know how other people are reviewing, but I think it's okay as long as I do my best."
"I'm unsure and a little panicked."
"It's okay. Let's work harder today to strengthen our memory of the key points."
The exam will be held at 9:00 am on the second day after registration.
The examination venue is the factory auditorium.
Jiang Haitang and Kang Xiaoxia came here after finishing their morning shift.
When they arrived, everyone else was already seated.
The auditorium can accommodate seven or eight hundred people, and more than seventy people are taking the exam inside. There are empty seats around each person to ensure that there is no cheating.
"Two poor fellows who wash dishes and wipe tables are taking the exam. It really lowers our standards."
A pretty girl dressed in elegant clothes fanned her nose with her hand in disgust, clearly showing that she was disgusted by the smell of cooking fumes on the two people.
Kang Xiaoxia wanted to speak, but was stopped by Jiang Haitang.
"Xiao Xia, the exam is important, don't create trouble."
It's not worth it to quarrel with others and ruin your mood on a day like this.
In both past and present lives, this was the first time Jiang Haitang sat in an examination room. It would be a lie to say she wasn’t nervous.
She was so nervous that even her legs were shaking.
However, after reading the entire test paper, Jiang Haitang calmed down.
The entire paper is divided into three parts. The first part is about current affairs, which is worth a total of 30 points.
The second part is textile basics, also worth 30 points.
The third part consists of two free-play questions, each worth 20 points, for a total of 40 points.
Jiang Haitang understood that the last two questions were what really made the difference in scores.
One of these two questions requires you to explain the current development of textile technology and the outlook for future textile technology.
Another question simply requires students to write down their opinions and suggestions on textile technology reform and innovation.
If you can get points for the first question by reading the book, the second question is basically a fatal question.
Those who are truly capable of proposing innovations in textile technology will not come to participate in the recruitment examinations of textile factories.
Those who come to take the exam are basically outsiders.
But the surprise was that there was a Jiang Haitang in this exam, which surprised the examiners.
Among the three pages, Jiang Haitang’s weakness is the current affairs content in the first section.
Fortunately, she read the newspaper Lu Liangchen gave her carefully in the past few days and answered most of the questions correctly.
The second section was no pressure at all for Jiang Haitang, as she could answer the questions with her eyes closed.
Jiang Haitang also wrote the third part very smoothly.
As a person who has lived two lives, I know much more about the development of the textile industry than others.
What's more, she read several textile books that did not belong to this era in her dream, which gave her a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the future innovations in textile technology.
It was not enough for Jiang Haitang to fill up the paper with his eloquent writing. He wrote on two more appendix pages before stopping.
Jiang Haitang wrote more than others, and by the time he finished, everyone else had already handed in their papers.
As they walked out of the auditorium, the pretty girl who had previously looked down on Jiang Haitang glanced at them and said, "I thought she was capable of something, but she's the last one to hand in her paper. She's not going to hand it in blank, is she?"
