By the time Ye Zhenghua finished eating, Meng Zihan had also finished packing her clothes.
Those down jackets weren't taken with her after all; Meng Xueyun will bring them to her later, or she can pick them up when she gets home.
Meng Zihan was just making a show of it; since Meng Xueyun insisted, she didn't force her.
She slung her backpack over her shoulder, pulled her suitcase, and walked up to Ye Zhenghua.
"Uncle, I'm all packed."
Ye Zhenghua nodded, stood up, walked to the door, and said to Meng Zihan, "Let's go, I'll take you to the factory."
Meng Zihan quickly jogged after him.
Meng Xueyun also wanted to see her off, but before she could speak, Ye Zhenghua glared at her, and she silently retreated.
Meng Zihan moved out of the Ye family home, and Ye Linnan and Ye Linbei were in a better mood, waving to her.
"Goodbye, Sister Xiaohan."
Ye Linbei even raised his fist: "Go for it! You can do it!"
Meng Zihan was so angry she felt like she was going to grind her teeth to powder.
Are you all so happy that I'm leaving?
She forced a smile and followed Ye Zhenghua out of the house.
The steel mill and the textile factory are located at opposite ends of Jiangcheng City, quite far apart, but fortunately there is a direct bus route, so it's still quite convenient.
There weren't many people on the bus at that time, and there were still empty seats. After the two boarded, they each found a seat far away and sat down in silence until they arrived at the textile factory.
When they arrived at the factory gate, Ye Zhenghua offered the gatekeeper a cigarette and said a few kind words before the gatekeeper allowed Ye Zhenghua to go in and make a phone call.
Ye Zhenghua picked up the phone and spoke a few words to the other party. Then he came out and said to Meng Zihan, "Wait here, someone will come to pick you up soon. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, he turned and left without saying another word.
Meng Zihan really wanted to ask him if he was really going to abandon her from now on, and if she could still go back to the Ye family...
Seeing his resolute back, I ultimately didn't ask those questions.
She knew that, given Ye Zhenghua's opportunistic nature, as long as she became successful, he would come to her without her having to ask.
It's no use saying anything now.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman wearing a blue shirt walked out of the factory. Her hair was casually tied in a bun at the back of her head. Her face was expressionless. She looked Meng Zihan up and down with a calm expression, but her voice was loud and clear.
"Your name is Meng Zihan?"
Meng Zihan was also sizing her up.
He was burly, had a loud voice, and dressed simply.
Did they send a cleaner to pick me up?
They even said they were introduced through connections, and this is the treatment they get?
Meng Zihan felt uncomfortable and her attitude wasn't very good.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"I am Li Xiumei, the director of the spinning workshop. Come with me and report to the workshop first."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Workshop foreman?
What does the workshop foreman look like and how is he dressed?
That's so unprofessional.
If I continue working here, will I end up like this in the future?
Meng Zihan felt a chill run down her spine and didn't want to go with her.
Li Xiumei took a few steps and realized that she hadn't followed, so she turned around and called out to her loudly.
"What are you dawdling for? Hurry up and go!"
Startled by her call, Meng Zihan didn't have time to think and quickly pushed her suitcase, replying softly, "Yes, I'm here."
Li Xiumei snorted and walked straight ahead without offering to help Meng Zihan carry anything.
Meng Zihan could only carry the heavy canvas bag and pull the suitcase, struggling to follow behind her.
Li Xiumei led her to a dormitory building and pointed to a room on the third floor, saying, "304, you'll be living here from now on. There are three people in there, all new this year. Get along well with them."
After saying that, he handed her a key and left.
Meng Zihan took the key, climbed to the third floor, found room 304, opened the door and went inside.
There were four iron bunk beds in the dormitory, covered with simple bedding.
There were four tables and several chairs placed in the middle, and four long, narrow wardrobes, a basin stand, and a clothes rack against the wall.
There was no other furniture besides that.
There is no kitchen and no bathroom.
You have to go to the washroom at the end of the corridor to use the toilet and wash up.
A girl wearing a bright red short-sleeved shirt was sitting on the bed combing her hair. When she saw Meng Zihan come in, she looked at her curiously.
"Are you new here? What's your name?"
That's incredibly rude.
He was ugly, dressed plainly, spoke with an accent, and had an unpleasant odor.
He looks like a country bumpkin who just came to the city.
Just like Ye Linchen!
Meng Zihan didn't want to talk to her.
Can't these people just stay in the countryside? They're all rushing to the city and competing with city dwellers for resources!
However, she is cunning and has no good feelings towards people, but on the surface she is gentle and kind.
He immediately smiled and said, "My name is Meng Zihan, what's yours?"
"My name is Zhou Xiaohong. I work in the roving workshop. You're so pretty, why are you here to work in the factory?"
Zhou Xiaohong scrutinized her closely, clicking her tongue in amazement. "You really don't look like a college student."
Meng Zihan's nose immediately stung with tears.
That country bumpkin, he really knows how to stab you in the back!
Stab where it hurts!
She stopped talking and just looked at the four beds.
Zhou Xiaohong was quite enthusiastic, saying to her, "This bed by the door is yours."
Don't I know?
This is the only bed without a sheet!
Meng Zihan inwardly complained, but aloud she said thank you.
She took out the duvet cover and put it on, on the verge of tears.
From now on, I'll have to work and live with idiots like this, and then I'll become an idiot like this myself!
Zhou Xiaohong, unaware of her inner thoughts, took the initiative to help her pack her things and introduced her to her other two roommates.
