Regarding the handling of Jia Dongxu's death, Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill provided two options.

One option is that the factory directly compensates 500 yuan, and from then on the Jia family has nothing to do with the steel mill.

The other option is that the factory pays 300 yuan in compensation and lets Qin Huairu take over the job, but the salary is worse, only the salary of an ordinary worker, 21.5 yuan a month.

Qin Huairu chose the latter without thinking.

You have to know that there is no one in the Jia family who can make money now, and there is also a mother-in-law who is almost crazy. It is not known whether she needs to take medicine to treat her in the future. If she still needs to take medicine, it will be a considerable expense. If she keeps the 500 yuan, it will be spent in less than a year or two.

By then, with no money and no job, I’m afraid even going to the city wall to dig wild vegetables won’t be enough to keep up with the heat!

Although I chose to take the job, the salary of twenty-one dollars and fifty cents is actually not enough to feed a family of three. It just means that it is stable. Apart from this salary, if I go out and look for a job, I will definitely not let my family starve to death.

Therefore, Qin Huairu's choice was undoubtedly correct.

"Dongxu, Dongxu, why have you become so small? Come, mom will give you some candy."

Aunt Jia held a kettle of boiling water that had just been heated on the coal stove in one hand and was about to pour it on Banggeng's face.

Qin Huairu turned around when she heard the voice, her face turned pale with fright, and she immediately shouted:

"Mom, what are you doing?"

He immediately snatched the kettle from Jia Zhang's hand and went to the uncle's house with the stick in his arms.

After a while, crying sounds were heard from the old man's house.

Opposite Qin Huairu sat an old man and an old woman, who were crying so hard that tears would be streaming down their cheeks. Anyone who saw them would feel sorry for them.

An old lady lost her own child at birth, but when she saw Banggeng, she took it and held it to comfort him. An old man felt bad when he saw Qin Huairu crying, and said softly.

"Huai Ru, don't just cry, tell me what happened?"

Qin Huairu just kept crying and didn't say anything.

After a lot of coaxing, he finally told her what had just happened.

Bang——!

When the uncle Yi Zhonghai heard this, he punched the table.

"So, Aunt Jia is really crazy?"

Qin Huairu sniffed and nodded.

"Um."

The eldest uncle said: "That won't do. It's really not easy for you orphans and widows to live in the courtyard."

"Well, just wait. Your situation is already one that the hospital needs to pay special attention to. After a while, the elder uncle will organize the hospital to donate money to your family, so that you and your mother can have a better life."

"Well, in the whole yard, the first uncle is the best to me!" Qin Huairu's eyes moved, her eyes were charming, and her eyes were full of gratitude and admiration for the first uncle.

This charming gesture caused ripples in the old man's heart.

After a long period of quarreling and the issue of age, I have long disliked the aunt.

Now comparing with Qin Huairu's little appearance, the old man dislikes the old woman even more.

The old lady was lowering her head to coax Bang Geng and did not notice the expressions of the other two people in the room.

Qin Huairu told the story about taking over the job again, and then looked at the aunt pleadingly.

"It's not that we can't afford to support him, it's just that my mother-in-law's situation is special and I don't dare to leave Banggeng to her."

"Auntie, can you... help take care of Bang Geng? I'll have him recognize you as his godmother and take care of you until the end of your life."

Provide for the elderly and see them to the end of their lives?

This sentence touched the heart of the aunt.

She and Lao Yi had no children. In the past, Lao Yi had always tied Jia Dongxu down to take care of him in his old age and didn't care about himself at all.

Now, if I keep the dog in my hands, when it grows up, will it have to be close to me and take care of me in my old age?

Anyway, I'm not very busy at home, so I just weave straw sandals every day. I have plenty of time, so I can help with the lacing.

"Okay, I promise you, but let me make it clear in advance, if I leave Bang Geng to me, I won't take care of his three meals a day."

There is no simple person in this compound. Even if an aunt is a peaceful person, she will still calculate when it comes to interests.

Besides, it’s been 54 years.

Unlike 1953, in 1954, the city of 1949 officially implemented the "rationed food supply for residents."

People are divided into several levels according to their type of work, age, and household registration. Not only does the food grain certificate become their lifeline, but ordinary residents cannot even get enough to eat.

Moreover, people like Bang Geng will be at the age where "the little brats will eat the old man out of his house" in two years. If the rules are not established in advance, this mess will be difficult to get rid of in the future!

I have to say that the aunt's idea is quite sensible.

But when Qin Huairu heard this, her expression froze. She didn't expect that the usually kind aunt would say this.

Their family is already in such a difficult situation, what's wrong with an old lady helping herself?!

It seems that the aunt may not be the good person that others see her as.

at this time.

The old lady had no idea of ​​the seriousness of the matter. According to Bang Geng's character and the original novel, Sha Zhu died miserably in the snow.

From now on, don’t even think about letting Banggeng take care of Auntie in her old age. It’s a blessing if you don’t suck her blood dry!

at the same time.

At 8:30 in the morning, the steel rolling mill starts working.

Liu Xiaojun and other fitters were standing in rows according to the instructions of Liu Haizhong, the second uncle and director of the second workshop.

However, there is one more woman in the team today.

This woman is none other than Qin Huairu, who came to replace Jia Dongxu's position.

Her eyes were still swollen at this time, but it did not affect her beauty. This made the young boys in the second workshop stunned. They tilted their heads and wished they could eat Qin Huairu alive.
