Lin Yu said embarrassedly, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
A factory director, a man of stature, brought his daughter to report for duty, and she was only assigned to a minor clerical position.
Neither Hu Xianfeng nor Director Jiang felt it was bad.
"It's nothing, we're all on the same side."
Hu Xianfeng and he were comrades-in-arms who had shared life and death. Seeing how much he valued the two girls, you could tell that he truly regarded them as family.
Factory Director Jiang naturally had to lend a hand as well.
He had also read Lin Wen's manuscript; he was a talented person.
Judging from her personality, she is rather quiet and has a tendency to swallow her anger.
He personally led her there, and those people, out of respect for him, would surely treat her better.
Lin Yu and Da Niu followed the two elders.
Director Jiang said, "Let's take you to the personnel department to report for duty first."
When the head of the personnel department saw the factory manager arriving with his entourage, he quickly stood up and asked, "Factory manager, what brings you here?"
Director Jiang introduced her to him: "This is Comrade Lin Wen, who came in first place in this recruitment exam. I brought her here to register."
The head of the personnel department asked a subordinate, "Bring me the list of candidates who were accepted in this recruitment."
The subordinate brought it over, and the director glanced at it. His expression changed for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.
"First place, Comrade Lin Wen, that's right. Did you bring your household registration booklet?"
The young woman quickly pulled out her household registration booklet and handed it to him: "I brought it."
The director registered the information and stamped the employment form: "That's fine. Go directly to the publicity department to start your employment."
The young woman took it and said, "Thank you."
The group turned and left, unaware that the director had suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
The atmosphere in the personnel department office suddenly turned cold.
......
Director Jiang knew the area well and led them to the propaganda department.
The process went very smoothly this time. Not only was Da Niu able to start work immediately, but she was also assigned a double dormitory room.
This brings us to the configuration of the employee dormitories at the machinery factory.
Generally speaking, workers' dormitories are eight-person or four-person rooms, and only those who reach the position of clerk are given double-room dormitories.
Once they became cadres, they were allocated welfare housing, which consisted of two bedrooms and a living room.
However, in reality, double rooms are often fully occupied.
Many staff members still live in four-person rooms.
Da Niu was lucky to be assigned a double dormitory room; the factory showed great respect for these talented individuals during this recruitment process.
We made a great effort to make room for them in a double room.
Those who did not meet the regulations were all removed.
Of course, none of them knew these inside stories at the time.
Director Jiang does know some of it, but he won't say it.
It wasn't until a week after she started working that Da Niu heard about it from her colleagues.
The group got their dormitory keys, but only Lin Yu accompanied Da Niu there.
She lives in apartment 403 of building 2 in the staff dormitory. The space is small, with two beds.
There are no private bathrooms; each floor has a public toilet and a private shower room.
Lin Yu was a little disgusted, but Da Niu thought it was great.
"It's the same at school, I'm used to it."
She used the public restrooms at school and took showers in the girls' bathroom.
It's because Lin Yu has a private bathroom and shower room at home that she can't stand it.
She gave the girl a thumbs up: "You're so strong."
Since she herself felt there was no problem, Lin Yu didn't say anything.
Lin Yu helped her make a bed and cleaned the matching desk and cabinet.
After making the bed and drawing the curtains, it was all done.
This bed curtain was something Lin Yu suggested she make herself when her daughter went to high school and had to live at school.
Only those who have used it can appreciate its benefits.
Especially for someone like Da Niu who is a bit socially anxious, using bed curtains to block out other people's view makes her much more comfortable.
Therefore, when it came time to stay in the staff dormitory, Da Niu brought her along again.
This bed curtain accompanied her through two years of high school, and drawing it closed gave her a sense of security.
I seem to have more courage to adapt to my new life.
Seeing that everything was settled, Lin Yu began to give instructions:
"I won't say anything about not being bullied, but I'll just say one thing: if anyone asks about your relationship with the factory manager, just answer honestly."
"If someone asks you to do something for the factory manager, you absolutely must not agree."
"Don't be afraid to talk about your family background. They know you come from the countryside and have a relationship with the factory manager. They won't be too close to you, but they won't bully you either."
Lin Yu was always worried that she would be bullied because there are still many people who discriminate against children from the countryside.
Now that Da Niu has some connection with the factory manager, that's enough to make those who want to bully her back down.
However, if anyone tries to get close to the factory manager through the girl, it must be stopped in time.
Da Niu is very obedient; she remembers everything Lin Yu says.
At first, she thought her sister agreed to let the factory manager bring her to work so that things would be easier for her in the future.
Little did she know, she was afraid that she would be bullied because of her rural background.
This is something that Da Niu understands very well.
Even in a small town like the county seat, she was often ridiculed when she was in high school.
Not to mention that the provincial capital is a big city.
My sister's consideration is correct.
Da Niu feels very lucky to have such a thoughtful relative.
"Alright, you understand now. See us off. I'll let you know once I've found a store location. You can look for us there in the future."
Hearing this, Da Niu felt even more at ease.
In such a big city, all the educated youth she knew, her relatives from the brigade, had opened shops here.
She can find acquaintances as long as she goes there, so what is there to worry about?
Da Niu and Director Jiang saw Lin Yu and Hu Xianfeng off in their car, watched them leave, and then went their separate ways.
Director Jiang wanted to take Da Niu for a walk, but Da Niu refused.
She said, "I'm already very grateful that you accompanied me to my new job. I don't want to take up any more of your time. I can explore on my own."
Director Jiang nodded, thinking to himself that the child was very sensible.
"Okay, then take a look for yourself, and be careful."
After saying that, he went back to his office to work.
The young woman wandered around the factory area by herself and found that the food factory was really no match for this place.
The machine factory was practically like a small town.
There's a large canteen, a swimming pool, several apartment buildings for family members, and a supply and marketing cooperative that sells vegetables.
There were also schools, nurseries, and early childhood education classes for the factory's employees nearby.
In short, living here is very convenient; you can solve all your daily problems without even leaving the factory.
Da Niu originally thought that the food factory would catch up with the big factory soon, but now she realizes that it will be too difficult to catch up with them.
No wonder my sister always says that the current scale is not enough.
Even though the food factory was considered good by the standards of the entire commune, it was not good enough compared to the provincial capital.
The eldest daughter suddenly understood why her older sister always told her to see more of the world.
Only by seeing the world can one realize one's own insignificance.
All pride and arrogance will cease to exist.
