Chapter 92
Shen Yao sent Ye Fuyue to the gate of the factory. Only after he saw Ye Fuyue riding away on her bicycle did he return to the office.
Xiang Jialiang was still thinking about what Ye Fuyue had just said. Seeing Shen Yao coming back, he said, "Sister-in-law is gone?"
"Yeah." Shen Yao had no expression on his face.
"Chief Shen, the place where your family lives now, is it something you applied for from the factory later? Is it quite big?" Xiang Jialiang came over and asked.
"It's okay."
"How many rooms does your house have?" Xiang Jialiang asked.
"Four."
"So many!" Xiang Jialiang's eyes widened in shock.
Xiang Jialiang was recruited into the security department of a factory only in the last one or two years.
When he entered the Security Department, Shen Yao was already the Chief Shen and had already moved into the current courtyard.
He also heard from his colleagues that the courtyard where Shen Yao was currently living was a place that Shen Yao had applied for later and it was quite spacious. However, Xiang Jialiang did not care about how spacious it was at the time and did not ask in detail.
Now, after hearing Ye Fuyue mention the housing issue after marriage, Xiang Jialiang remembered to ask.
Unexpectedly, this question really scared him.
It turns out that Section Chief Shen's house is so spacious! He remembered that Section Chief Shen's family now only had four people. Four people living in such a spacious house, his family simply couldn't compare. No wonder Ye Fuyue asked such a question.
Xiang Jialiang fell into deep thought again...
…
In a blink of an eye, it was time for the furniture factory to pay wages, which was also the time for Ye Fuyue to receive dividends.
Ye Fuyue went to the furniture factory and took the design drawings of the dressing table she had drawn with her.
Ye Fuyue went directly to Director Li’s office to see Director Li.
She is now a frequent visitor to the furniture factory, and the security guards no longer stop her for questioning when entering or leaving the factory.
This is the third time Ye Fuyue has received dividends, and this month it is only more than 40 yuan.
Director Li handed Ye Fuyue the dividends and some coupons he had prepared in advance, saying, "The two sets of furniture you designed previously didn't sell very well. This month's dividends will mainly come from the storage cabinet you designed first. The factory plans to stop producing those two sets of furniture if they still don't sell well."
Ye Fuyue took the money and the ticket and said, "Well, everything will be arranged by the factory."
"Don't you regret it?" Director Li said, "If you had listened to me and given you a 100 yuan buyout for a set of furniture, you would have made 300 yuan by now. Unlike now, after three months, you haven't even made a 100 yuan."
Ye Fuyue smiled. She didn't want such a small profit.
However, she did not say much to Director Li, but gave Director Li the design draft she brought with her: "This is the dressing table I newly designed, take a look."
Director Li took it, looked at it, and nodded repeatedly: "I think it's good. We'll see how the market reacts then."
He smiled at Ye Fuyue and said, "Should we still sign a 5% sales dividend this time instead of a 100 yuan buyout?"
"Yes, let's sign a sales dividend agreement. Since I want to cooperate with your factory for a long time, of course I can't just consider my own interests. I want to share the risks." Ye Fuyue spoke sweet words.
Director Li knew she was just being nice, but he couldn't understand why Ye Fuyue was so stubborn. Was she so confident in her design?
Director Li didn't waste any more words and signed the sales contract for the dressing table with Ye Fuyue.
Ye Fuyue came out of Director Li's office and happened to run into the lame employee she had met last time.
The man limped towards her. Several employees passed by him and saw his appearance. They stared at him for a while and then laughed.
Two of them even imitated the lame worker and walked, laughing as they walked.
The lame employee did not react much when he saw this, as if he was already used to such teasing and ridicule.
Master Wan saw this and angrily shouted at the two men, "Can't you walk properly? You really want your legs to break, don't you?"
When the two men saw Master Wan, they stopped learning and trotted away.
"A bunch of bastards! Instead of learning from the good things, you pick on other people's weaknesses. Aren't you afraid that one day you will really break your legs and they won't heal." Master Wan cursed.
After cursing, he saw Ye Fuyue and raised his hand to Ye Fuyue and smiled: "It's my salary today, I came here specially to collect it."
"Yes." Ye Fuyue also smiled at Master Wan.
She exchanged pleasantries with Master Wan. While they were chatting, the lame man came back.
Master Wan said to the man, "Tian Hao, come here and finish what I haven't finished."
"Okay." Tian Hao nodded and came over.
Ye Fuyue whispered to Master Wan, "Did he injure his leg at the factory?"
Master Wan went to the side with her and replied, "No, I fell when I was a child. It could have been cured, but because my family had no money, it became like this."
Ye Fuyue nodded, said goodbye to Master Wan and left without asking any more questions.
…
A few days later, it was time for the factory to pay wages.
When Yao Hong received his salary, he only gave Aunt Xie ten yuan as usual, kept five yuan for himself, and gave the rest to Zhong Lan.
Aunt Xie looked at the ten yuan in her hand and felt very uncomfortable, but she didn't say anything.
The next day, after everyone went to work, Zhong Lan was about to do the laundry when Aunt Xie called her.
"Don't wash the clothes yet. Go buy some vegetables. We don't have much at home."
Aunt Xie handed Zhong Lan fifty cents and a meat ticket: "Buy some meat. It's been a while since you've had meat, so it's time to eat something oily. Also buy some vegetables."
Zhong Lan looked at the fifty cents Aunt Xie handed her and said, "Mom, if I want to buy meat, fifty cents may not be enough."
Aunt Xie glared at her and said, "You're not without money. Just pay for it yourself first. I'll give it to you later."
"You haven't paid me back the money I paid for the food last time, the time before that, and the time before that." Zhong Lan said.
"What do you mean?!" Aunt Xie's eyes widened with excitement. "How could I possibly owe you less money? Just remember it first, I'll give it to you in one lump sum when the time comes."
Zhong Lan said nothing and accepted the fifty cents and meat coupons. "Mom, please wash the clothes. I'm afraid there will be too many people at the supply and marketing cooperative. I came back too late, and it's my turn to cook today, so I don't have time to wash clothes."
"I asked you to buy some vegetables, but you are so busy! Why don't you have time to wash clothes?" Aunt Xie yelled dissatisfiedly.
"Then Mom, you go buy the groceries yourself, I'll stay at home to do the laundry." Zhong Lan said as she was about to stuff the fifty cents and meat coupons back into Aunt Xie's pocket.
Aunt Xie stepped back repeatedly, not wanting to take it at all.
"Okay, okay, I'll do the laundry, you go buy groceries."
"Okay." Zhong Lan put the fifty cents and the meat ticket into her pocket, went back to her room to pack up, and set off.
Aunt Xie pretended to be sitting at the door washing clothes. When she saw Zhong Lan turning out of the gate of the slum, she hurriedly got up and went into the house.
She walked straight to Zhong Lan and Yao Hong's room.
