Chapter 113 How can my eyes keep her
The appearance of this lady seemed to make the atmosphere a little colder.
The workers, who had originally had relaxed expressions, suddenly changed their expressions and shouted seriously, "Hello, Director Wang."
"Well, thank you all for your hard work." Director Wang nodded without any fluctuation in his tone.
As if they were following a set routine, everyone responded in unison: "Not hard, not hard. The factory manager works day and night for everyone, and that's the hard part."
After saying that, they picked up the machine, moving much faster than before.
"Deputy Director Yu, what is this?" Director Wang looked at Yu Zhile and the other two with sharp eyes.
"These are my sister-in-law and my niece and nephew." Yu Peilan smiled. "They saw Old Man Fang being bullied, so they bought all the popsicles and came to see me. When I brought Lele to work, the older brothers and sisters in the workshop helped me a lot, so I wanted to take this opportunity to express my gratitude."
Then, she turned around and introduced Yu Zhile and the other two, "This is Director Wang Sumei."
The two sides simply exchanged greetings.
"Deputy Director Yu, you have always been aware of the rules. I think you should know what information cannot be disclosed to outsiders." Wang Sumei reminded.
After saying that, she left.
Yu Peilan and Yu Zhile looked at each other, and the former shrugged.
She asked the three to move on and told them about Director Wang's experience.
"Director Wang is the cousin of Deputy Director Wang. She was transferred here from Beijing."
"She is very courageous. She used to be the director of the Jingshi Canning Factory. She gave up everything and started a new life here."
"She only looks serious, but in fact she is a person who only supports the right and not her relatives. She is also a good leader. After more than half a year, the factory nursery was built and everyone's welfare has improved a lot."
"Cold on the outside, warm on the inside." Yu Zhile commented.
Yu Peilan smiled and nodded. Director Wang was her new role model in her career.
As you approach the seafood canning workshop, the unique fishy smell of seafood becomes stronger.
"Everyone has worked hard. Let's stop and have a popsicle to cool off." Yu Peilan knocked on the door.
She has been working in this workshop since she entered the cannery, rising from an ordinary worker to workshop director and then to deputy director. She has a deep affection for this workshop.
"Oh, last time it was mung bean soup, this time it's popsicles, you wasted money again." The person closest to her felt helpless.
Yu Peilan stuffed a popsicle into her mouth and said, "Don't worry about eating it. This time, Lele gave me the money."
"It's really Lele. I thought I was seeing things. She's still so pretty." the man said in surprise.
An older sister came over after hearing the noise: "Le Le is back? Let me see you. Why have you lost so much weight? Come to my house for dinner tonight and I'll stew some meat for you."
Yu Zhile was often taken to the workshop before going to school. It can be said that he grew up under the care of this group of uncles and aunts.
More and more people gathered around Yu Zhile, asking her about her well-being.
Yu Zhile could hardly bear their enthusiasm, so Yu Peilan came to her rescue and distributed popsicles to everyone.
A group of people were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere in the workshop was cheerful and harmonious.
Afterwards, Yu Zhile optimistically looked at the production process and discussed and adjusted the flavor with the chef in the seasoning room.
The seasoning chefs are an elderly couple who sighed repeatedly: "Le Le has really grown up. The little kid who was not even as tall as a chair is now such a good cook. Time flies."
"That's right. In the blink of an eye, he grew taller than me." Yu Peilan smiled, feeling both emotional and proud.
"Le Le is almost 20, right? Have you talked about marriage yet?" The old man began to ramble, "I know a lot of boys, all of them are excellent. Do you want me to introduce a few to you?"
Yu Zhile quickly waved his hand to refuse: "Grandpa, no need."
"The child has grown up and has her own ideas." Yu Peilan saw her resistance and couldn't help laughing. "Besides, free love is advocated now, so you don't have to worry about her."
"Free love is good, free love is good." The old couple murmured in a low voice, and then smiled at each other.
After chatting for a while, the four of them came out of the workshop.
Yu Zhile and Yu Yue were going to the Fang family courtyard to return the wooden box, while Yu Peilan was going to find Director Wang with the freshly seasoned fish pieces, and Yu Wanqin was going to pick up Xiaobao and take him home.
The door of Wang Sumei's office was open. She was talking to the leader of the logistics and welfare group. Deputy Director Wang stood aside like a drowned dog.
"Director, the new flavor for Workshop 2 is ready." Yu Peilan knocked on the door. "Would you like to try it now?"
"Just do as I say." Wang Sumei said to the team leader.
The team leader agreed, turned around and walked out, nodding and greeting Yu Peilan when their eyes met.
"Cousin, I--" Deputy Director Wang's voice was interrupted.
"Deputy Director Wang, this is not the place to make friends. Besides, the management rights of the new product line cannot be decided by me alone. It must be held by those with ability." Wang Sumei said sternly, "Also, I don't want to hear words that undermine unity from you in the future."
Being scolded in front of competitors, Deputy Director Wang looked as ugly as if he had eaten a fly.
Yu Peilan kept her eyes fixed on the fish, as if she heard nothing.
"Did you hear it clearly?" Wang Sumei asked.
Deputy Director Wang responded in a low voice: "Yes, I understand."
Wang Sumei motioned him to leave, then looked at Yu Peilan and said, "Did your niece also participate in the seasoning process?"
"Given some advice." Yu Peilan chose her words carefully.
After receiving a positive answer, Wang Sumei did not intend to beat around the bush and asked directly: "What do you think we need to do in order to keep your niece?"
"Huh?" Yu Peilan made a puzzled sound.
Wang Sumei picked up a piece of spicy fish fillet and put it in her mouth to taste.
The slow-baked fish is very firm and tastes the same as in previous years, with the biggest and most important difference being the seasoning.
It is spicy but not dry, full of flavor but not too salty, and the proportion of seasoning is just right.
"I've heard of your niece's name in Haidong Town. Even the chef of the state-owned restaurant praised her highly." Wang Sumei smiled. "I hope she can stay in the factory and be the head of the seasoning group."
Not long ago, she went to Haidong Town to reminisce with a good friend. During the dinner, her good friend's daughter asked someone to bring her a few glasses of novel drinks.
At that time, she learned the name Yu Zhile from a good friend. Her friend's husband was amazed at her cooking skills, which aroused her interest.
Unfortunately, when she rushed to the market after dinner, the Haiyu Village sideline business group had already left.
After returning to the provincial capital, a large number of orders came in from all over the country, and she was planning to develop a new product line, so she put this matter behind her.
Just now, when she heard Yu Peilan's introduction, she felt familiar with him, but only remembered this person after she arrived at the office.
The arrival of Yu Peilan and new products rekindled her love for talent. She had a very strong premonition that keeping Yu Zhile would take the factory's business to a higher level.
"Director, I'm afraid I have to disappoint you." Yu Peilan said with an apologetic look, "She is the pillar of the sideline business group in Haiyu Village. She will not leave her friends even if they offer her very good conditions."
Wang Sumei was silent for a while, then said, "The factory can arrange jobs for her family and provide her with good accommodation and generous compensation."
Yu Peilan smiled without saying anything and shook her head.
"I hope you can tell her what I said and ask her to think about it seriously. The door of the provincial canning factory will always be open to her." Wang Sumei still did not give up, "We can discuss the terms again."
"Director, I will relay your words word for word," Yu Peilan replied.
At the same time, Yu Zhile and Yu Yue were getting closer and closer to the Fang family.
In the Fang family courtyard, Fang Zhuo woke up and Grandpa Fang was applying medicated wine to the places where he had bumped into the stones.
"Am I being too strong? Does it hurt? If it hurts, remember to speak up."
"I didn't tell your mother because I was afraid she would worry."
Grandpa Fang kept muttering as he wiped the floor, but Fang Zhuo said nothing. However, he had long been accustomed to Fang Zhuo's silence.
"Are there any scratches on your palm?" He carefully avoided the broken skin. "Let me take a look. If you don't disinfect it, pus will form."
As he spoke, Grandpa Fang pried open Fang Zhuo's fingers and found a sweaty candy lying in his palm.
"Where do they live?" Fang Zhuo's voice was hoarse, like the sound of sawing wood made by a beginner playing the violin.
The next second, Grandpa Fang's eyes were red, and he quickly replied: "The child's aunt and uncle are workers in the cannery, and his uncle will come to return the wooden box later."
Fang Zhuo stopped talking.
Grandpa Fang walked to the old tree with his cane, pointed at the flowers, and said excitedly: "The child said that the flowers you carved are very beautiful and he likes them very much."
Fang Zhuo stared at the flowers for a long time, and some fragmented images flashed through his mind.
Grandpa Fang felt that the child was a breakthrough. He tried desperately to recall his every move with Yu Chi, but to no avail. He pounded his head in frustration.
"Dad, I want wood and a carving knife." Fang Zhuo forced an ugly smile.
"Okay, okay, okay." Grandpa Fang agreed repeatedly, "I'll go find it for you later."
At this time, Yu Zhile knocked on the gate.
Grandpa Fang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes before opening the door.
"Comrade Yu, you are here." He quickly moved aside to make room for Yu Zhile and his sister to enter.
Fang Zhuo thought Yu Chi had also come, so he nervously brushed his long hair in front of his forehead, and deliberately hid his bruised arms behind his back before looking up at the courtyard gate.
His eyes met Yu Zhile's, and the two looked at each other for more than ten seconds.
In an instant, Fang Zhuo seemed to be struck by lightning, his palms went numb, and many images of these eyes flashed through his mind.
But, he knew that the eyes in his memory did not belong to the young girl in front of him.
"Comrade Yu, have some water." Grandpa Fang poured water for the brother and sister.
Then he rubbed his hands nervously, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
"Grandpa Fang, if you have any problem, just tell us. If we can help, we will do our best." Yu Zhile understood his expression.
"Thank you so much." Grandpa Fang thanked him again, "Excuse me, may I ask your address? Xiao Zhuo wants to carve some small things for that little brother."
Yu Zhile replied, "We won't be staying in the provincial capital for long. We'll be leaving in two days."
"Can you please leave me your address?" Grandpa Fang said nervously, "I'll send it to you later..."
His words were interrupted by a knock on the door.
