It took three days to pay the salary. During these three days, the entire Finance Department was very busy. Lin Siya also received her first month's salary. Although she had not been working for a full month, she was still paid according to a full month's salary, which made Lin Siya very happy.

In addition to one month's salary, there are some additional benefits. However, she was not a regular employee, so her benefits were half of what a regular employee would get. However, she did receive a pound of meat coupons, half a pound of sugar coupons, and a voucher for purchasing one foot of defective cloth. This defective cloth was an internal treatment for textile factory workers, and other factories did not have it. Of course, if she wanted to buy more, that would be impossible.

In those days, defective cloth was a good thing. Every family had relatives or friends who had defective cloth. Every family had many children, and with so few cloth coupons, a family could not make a full set of clothes.

Not to mention those relatives and friends living in the countryside. When they get married, if they can have a new set of clothes made of defective cloth, they will be considered wealthy families in the surrounding area.

Of course, defective fabrics are not available everywhere at any time, so why are vouchers issued? It is because you have to wait until there are defective fabrics before you can use the voucher to buy the fabric, and it is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Also, if you don't need the voucher temporarily, you can also exchange it with someone else. Lin Siya directly exchanged the voucher to Lou Nana in the same department. Lou Nana is getting married next month and she had already told everyone in the department that she wanted everyone to exchange the voucher to her first.

Lin Siya had no objection to this kind of thing. After all, it was a major event in life, and it was only one foot of cloth, so there was no use for her to buy it.

So as soon as the items were delivered, Lin Siya gave the voucher directly to Lou Nana.

"Thank you, Yaya. That's great! I've finally found my new clothes. I heard there are a few pieces of red cloth in this batch, and the dyeing is a little uneven. My mom knows how to dye it, so I'll go buy some now. I can make a skirt."

"Nana, your mother is so amazing? She can even dye cloth?"

"Hehe, these are all skills passed down from our ancestors. My mom only learned a little bit, but it's enough."

Lou Nana's parents are both workers in a textile factory. I heard that her grandfather used to be a dyeing worker in a cloth workshop. After the founding of New China, her grandfather was recruited by the textile factory. After he retired, he gave his job to his only daughter.

Lou Nana took the vouchers that everyone had collected for her and quickly bought the fabric.

Red cloth is very rare, and even defective cloth is very popular. Lou Nana went there early and was lucky enough to buy six feet of cloth. She showed it to them when she came back. It was a large piece of bright red cloth with some white spots on it. It was because the machine had malfunctioned and the color was not evenly applied.

"This color is so beautiful, and there are not too many white dots on it." Zheng Rong was full of envy, thinking that when she gets married, she will also buy a piece of red cloth like this and make a red skirt to wear.

Lou Nana was very happy after buying the red cloth she liked.

"Xiaoya, it's time to get your salary today. Do you want to go shopping together?" Li Meili invited.

Lin Siya thought about it and nodded in agreement. She had been working for almost a month and her salary was paid today, which was a good opportunity to buy some things for her bare house.

As everyone knows, the entire Lin family was swept away and nothing was left for her. The things in the house now were brought back by her bit by bit over the past month.

The furniture that she had previously stored in the space must not appear again. After all, there is no shortage of smart people in every era.

What's more, the neighbors around her had occasionally visited the Lin family before, and they must have seen those old furniture. To be on the safe side, these old furniture can only stay in the space and not be exposed to the light for the time being.

Now her room is very simple, with only a bed for sleeping, and later she bought a large wardrobe from a trust store, and nothing else.

There is only a dining table and two chairs in the kitchen. If you want to live more comfortably, you actually need to buy a lot of things.

However, she didn't dare to add too many things at once. After all, she was the only one at home and it would be easy for someone to notice her.

When they heard that the two of them had received their wages and were going shopping, the others immediately became interested.

Especially Lou Nana, who is getting married next month and has a lot of things to buy. Although her mother is already preparing a dowry for her, she also has a lot of things she wants to buy.

Finally, a few unmarried girls agreed to go shopping together after get off work.

As they chatted, everyone talked about the issue of yesterday's salary payment.

"Let me tell you, we live right next to the Li family. They had a huge fight yesterday. I heard their eldest daughter-in-law would have died if she hadn't been rushed to the hospital a little later."

"real?"

"Of course it's true. Yesterday, after Li Daren came back from the hospital, his mother kept pestering him, saying he was unfilial and so on. Then, in a rage, he smashed everything in the house and said he wanted to split up the family business."

"In the end, did they split up?"

"They split up. Li Daren and his wife left the house with their three children."

"Ah! That old woman is really inhumane. My eldest daughter-in-law is still in the hospital and just had a heavy hemorrhage after giving birth, and yet she was kicked out of the house like that."

"That's what I said! In the end, even calling the director of the subdistrict office didn't work."

"So, Comrade Li Daren also agreed?"

"I agree. Even if I have to leave the house empty-handed, it's better than having my brother and his family suck my blood from me."
