Lin Yuyao smiled faintly, "I don't think so. She's quite good at offending people."
Song Qin understood and smiled, "That's true. Someone must have complained about her."
"Oh, by the way, do you know where Fang Qing and her son live now?"
"where?"
"Liao Village, west of the city."
Lin Yuyao thought for a while before coming up with a rough idea of the location.
"It's still a bit far over there, isn't it?"

"It's not that bad. If you take the short path or ride your bike faster, it'll take about half an hour."
"I heard that was a slum from the old society."
"Yes, the location is not advantageous. Even if the city is redeveloped, it will take a while to demolish the houses there. The housing conditions there are also poor, but fortunately they are cheap. Look at Fang Qing, it's only been a few years, and she's really getting worse and worse."
Lin Yuyao nodded, then suddenly sighed, "What she once obtained was never hers in the first place."
Song Qin nodded in agreement. "That's true. They've been taking advantage of her for so many years. Saying she had it hard before was just whining. Now it's truly difficult for her."
Lin Yuyao tilted her head and said, "What's so difficult about her? In fact, even now, her life is much easier than Tang Xiaofen's."
"Tang Xiaofen?" Song Qin suddenly remembered, "Oh, that... Wang Jianguo's ex-wife?"
"Yes, Tang Xiaofen is now supporting four people by herself. In addition to her normal work, she also has to find ways to make money every day."
"Where did four people come from? Isn't she just raising her daughter?"
"Her mother and her son came to seek refuge with her."
"ah?"
Lin Yuyao said, "I ran into her a few days ago. She said her son was called by Jiang Mei back home to wash clothes by the river and nearly drowned. Jiang Mei didn't comfort him, she even beat him. Later, her son went to find his grandmother and came to Nancheng to live with her."
Song Qin sighed after hearing this.
She always felt sorry for herself because her parents favored boys over girls and always wanted her to be a tool to make money for the family.
Compared to Tang Xiaofen, she is really much luckier.
"I remember her two children were twins, still in kindergarten, which means they weren't even six years old yet. It's amazing they had the guts to think of washing clothes in the river at such a young age."
"Yes, she was afraid that the child would suffer if he followed Jiang Mei, and she was also afraid that the child would be spoiled by them, so she simply kept him by her side."
"Wow, that's a lot of pressure. Her salary might be enough to keep the kids from starving, but it won't be enough to support them when they need money for schooling."
"Yes." Lin Yuyao sighed.
"I'd occasionally see her collecting scrap to sell. When I lived in the old house, I'd pile up all the scrap and give it to her. But in our neighborhood...it's hard for her to get in now."
"Now that you've said that, I want to help her. Why don't we just let her come work here and give her a room in a dormitory? That way we can save on rent."
Lin Yuyao: "How can ordinary employees get a single dormitory? And if they can bring their families, they need to be a manager at least. If we give her the green light, there will be a lot of people who will have difficulty making a living later."
Song Qin: “…” That’s true. There are so many people in need these days. I can’t help them all. I simply can’t help them all.
"Alas! It's mainly because she didn't have much education. Her education level is about the same as Fang Qing's." Lin Yuyao paused, then continued, "Fang Qing must have learned to read and write during her time in prison, so she probably wasn't as good as Fang Qing is now. We also don't have high educational requirements for the cleaners and cafeteria ladies. They sweep the streets in a formal job at the Municipal Health Department, so they have more prospects than us."
Song Qin was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
That seems to be the case.
"How about this," Song Qin thought again, "Look, we have so many cardboard boxes, plastic bottles, cans, etc. here that need to be recycled. Why not just give her the job?"
Lin Yuyao didn't know how to do it.
“Who among us is recycling now?”
"No one cared. The garbage truck took it away. Let's sort the garbage from now on. Have the company's cleaners sort the sellable items and sell them directly to the recycling station. If they can sell for three cents, we'll sell them to them for two cents. She'll earn one cent if she takes them to the recycling station."
"As a large company like ours, we handle a lot of waste. As long as we're diligent, we can make a lot of money each month. We can even use the proceeds for employee benefits, like giving them some extra afternoon snacks. How about that?"
Lin Yuyao gave a thumbs-up. "That's great. Trash sorting is linked to everyone's afternoon tea."
Their kindness depends on the person, and they won't help anyone they find pitiful.
Tang Xiaofen is considered to be one of the most inspiring people they know, and they are willing to help.
The next day, Lin Yuyao arranged for someone to discuss waste recycling with Tang Xiaofen.
Tang Xiaofen looked at the contract and fell into deep thought, wondering how such a good thing could come about.
"You mean I should go to your company to recycle waste?"
"Yes."
"Could you...could you please read the contract to me again?"
"Of course." The other party read the contract again.
Then Tang Xiaofen took it and looked at it.
Although she didn't know many words, after the other person read it twice, she could understand it by guessing.
She was indeed asked to do waste recycling, and she only had to collect it once a day. The entire company's waste recycling was contracted to her, and she could get about one-third of the difference.
If the size is large, it is very cost-effective, much cheaper than looking for it in trash cans all over the street.
"Why did such a good thing happen to me?" Tang Xiaofen muttered in confusion.
The other party smiled and said, "This is what our boss ordered."
"Your boss? Your boss is...?"
"Ms. Lin Yuyao."
Tang Xiaofen then understood that it was her.
I met her a few days ago and chatted with her.
She must have wanted to help herself after realizing her predicament.
"Thank you, thank you, Boss Lin."
"Then Ms. Tang, are you willing?"
"I do."
"Okay, let's sign a contract. Starting tomorrow, you'll start collecting items at our company. Here's my business card. When you get there, take it to the security office and have them call me."
"OK."
Tang Xiaofen's dilemma was solved in one go, and she was very grateful to Lin Yuyao.
After get off work the next day, she quickly rode her second-hand tricycle to Lin Yuyao's company to recycle waste.
On the first day of recycling, she couldn't find the place, so the assistant from yesterday took her to familiarize herself with the environment.
The company has several waste recycling points, and employees sort the garbage.
Of course, there are also many employees who litter, but it doesn’t matter. They have already arranged for the company’s cleaners to assist with the issue of garbage sorting, which is also one of the items for their assessment.
Tang Xiaofen comes here every day and only needs to go to a few fixed places to pack the recyclable waste, then take it to a fixed place for lining, record the accounts, and then take it away together.
