Xie Lan sneered after hearing this. "Your mother is really weird. How could there be someone in this world who would help her daughter but not her son? But this isn't difficult to handle. From what I hear Deputy Director Yang's son wants your sister, so go talk to him..." Xie Lan whispered in Li Zicheng's ear and stood up again. "In this case, your mother will have to marry him off even if she doesn't want to."
When Li Zicheng heard this, he felt that it was a bit immoral, but when he thought about Wu Xiuying's attitude today, he was really angry.
"Okay, I'll go talk to Yang Jianxing right now." Li Zicheng quickly put on a smile again, "My wife still has a solution."
Xie Lan snorted and laughed, "If it weren't for me, you would have been eaten to death by your family. When I marry you, not to mention your mother, even your eldest brother's family will have to listen to me."
Li Zicheng nodded repeatedly, then put his arm around the person's waist and moved closer to her in a sticky manner.
Wu Xiuying got up early and accompanied Li Yuzhen to the school to go through the procedures for resuming school.
After completing the procedures for resuming school, he returned to the textile factory to work alone.
After changing into work clothes, I went to the workshop.
Today's textile factories are definitely not like those of thirty or forty years later. The production equipment is outdated, and there are piles of rags everywhere.
As soon as Wu Xiuying entered the second workshop, she heard two female colleagues chattering and saying something.
Wu Xiuying listened carefully and said, "I heard that several factories next door are laying off employees. I wonder if our factory will do the same..."
"Our factory is state-owned, so it shouldn't be that bad."
"Who knows? I heard that the South is developing some kind of special economic zone, and many factories are upgrading their equipment. Can our old equipment compare?"
“…”
Wu Xiuying paused, suddenly remembering that the past two years were the time when the wave of layoffs was at its worst.
Their factory almost collapsed that year, but fortunately it had government support, and she, as the head of the workshop, was not on the list of laid-off workers. However, many laid-off people at that time could not bear it, and many people were depressed.
She calculated that it would take another six months for her business to improve. She couldn't be idle for the next six months. Besides, household expenses were an expense, so she had to save more capital if she wanted to do business.
So she has enough time in the past six months to plan what business she will do.
"Xiuying." A voice called out.
Wu Xiuying turned around and saw Lin Miao coming over. Lin Miao stepped forward and said, "The factory director wants you to come over."
Wu Xiuying was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Okay. I'll be right there. Did the factory manager say anything?"
Lin Miao shook his head. "But I saw that he called a lot of female workers over. It seems that he has something to say. You should go quickly."
Wu Xiuying paused.
Suddenly I remembered that when there was a wave of layoffs, a large number of female workers were called over.
At that time, she saw a group of female workers running out crying, and some of them smashed the factory director's office in anger.
After all these years, she is still deeply impressed.
Could it be that...
Wu Xiuying clenched her hands, took a deep breath, said goodbye to Lin Miao, and walked towards the factory director's office. She knocked on the door, and someone called "Come in." Wu Xiuying pushed the door open and found several people standing inside.
Director Xu took a sip of water from his enamel cup and saw Wu Xiuying coming. "Well, Team Leader Wu, please close the door. Everyone is here."
Wu Xiuying looked a little strange, but nodded and closed the door behind her.
Director Xu put down the enamel cup in his hand. "I think everyone has heard about the things going on in the neighboring factories. To be honest, the situation in our factory... is not optimistic. You are all veteran employees. Some may have worked here for two or three years, while the oldest, like Team Leader Wu, has worked here for over ten years."
Wu Xiuying clenched her fists, and the feeling of uneasiness grew stronger.
The next second, Director Xu sighed heavily. "Actually, if it hadn't come to this, I would have kept all of you. But now the factory can't afford to hire that much money. You're all good employees..."
"Director, what the hell are you doing?" In an instant, the emotions of several female workers became nervous.
"What do you mean you can't afford to hire anyone?"
"Yeah."
Director Xu's scalp stiffened, and he could only glance at them guiltily. "It's like this, the factory has decided to lay off employees, and you are all on the list."
There was an uproar in an instant.
Wu Xiuying stood there in a daze, her breathing heavy.
In an instant, the whole office was filled with the sound of a group of people breaking through the defenses. It was a mess and soon the maintenance personnel rushed in.
Wu Xiuying never imagined that she would be on the list of laid-off workers. She was clearly not like this in her previous life, so how could she have changed...
A group of people here were crying bitterly. Losing their good jobs was more painful than losing their lives.
Wu Xiuying's expression quickly returned to normal, and she followed a group of people out of the office under the protection of security. The crying of the group shook the entire textile factory, but only Wu Xiuying remained calm.
After the crowd dispersed, Wu Xiuying followed the main group and received part of the subsidy.
When there was no one around, Wu Xiuying returned to Director Xu's office.
When Director Xu saw that it was Wu Xiuying, a look of evasion flashed across his face. "Team Leader Wu, is there anything else?"
Wu Xiuying saw his expression and realized something was wrong. "Director, don't worry, I'm not here to cry."
Director Xu's face froze slightly. "Oh, then what are you doing here?"
"I can understand other people being laid off, but as an outstanding and active member of the factory, I'm not the first to be laid off. I just want an answer. Did someone say something to the factory manager?"
Director Xu's eyes slightly avoided, "How can that be true..."
Wu Xiuying: "Director, just tell me, yes or no. I don't need you to tell me who it is. I just want an answer."
Director Xu saw her standing there stubbornly.
He has known Wu Xiuying for more than ten years.
She has worked diligently in the factory over the years, has the best technical skills, and has been an outstanding activist in the factory for several consecutive years.
Without a bit of stubbornness, you can't accomplish it.
He knew that if he didn't answer today he wouldn't be able to leave.
Director Xu sighed and nodded.
Wu Xiuying pursed her lips, made up her mind, and responded.
There was a knock on the door behind me.
Director Xu called out, "Come in."
A young military officer appeared outside and said, "Director Xu, our leader is waiting for you outside."
Director Xu instantly became respectful. "Okay, okay, I'll be right there. —Team Leader Wu, do you have anything else to say?"
Wu Xiuying pursed her lips: "No."
After saying that, Wu Xiuying walked out. As soon as she walked out, she found a military-grade green train parked outside. The blurry window reflected a figure, who looked very cold and upright. Wu Xiuying didn't dare to look at him any longer, so she quickened her pace and walked out of the factory gate.
