Chapter 351 Drawing Lots
As happy as Dani was during the day, she was as desperate now.
Uncle Zheng had clearly agreed to let her go to school, so why did her mother disagree?
Dani opened and closed her lips, wanting to ask herself if she was really her biological daughter.
How could she do this to her?
"Did you hear that?" Yang Dongya cursed a few more times, and when he saw that Dani didn't say anything, he grabbed her ear and twisted it hard!
Dani was in so much pain that tears came out of her eyes.
"I...I understand."
At this moment, the light in her eyes was completely extinguished, as if she had become a body without a soul.
But Yang Dongya didn't care.
Seeing that she was obedient, he let go of her hand with satisfaction.
"Remember, the only way out for girls is to work hard and study hard. Studying is not what you should think about."
There is no more reading, and he won't listen to my teachings in the future.
In the room, Qiangzi smiled happily when he heard what Yang Dongya said.
Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to teach Dani a lesson and tell her not to covet things that don't belong to her.
Now that Yang Dongya understood his interest, he decided to let the bitch go for the time being!
Zheng Lianfeng has been in a better mood than ever recently because his children at home are obedient.
Therefore, he handed the key of the cupboard back to Yang Dongya.
After all, he sometimes has to go on temporary missions and can't always carry the key with him.
However, he still reminded Yang Dongya again, asking her not to open the stove for Qiangzi and the others.
Everyone has to eat the same thing.
Yang Dongya finally regained control of the food. At first, she did not dare to give Qiangzi and the others any special treatment.
But she usually spent more time taking care of Qiangzi at home, so under Qiangzi's coercion and inducement, she still opened the stove for him from time to time.
Time flies and it is already the end of August.
Under the guidance of Su Ranran and the careful cooperation of others, all the saline-alkali rice in Yi County was grown.
At the same time, good news came from the pig feed processing plant.
"Sister Qi, are you saying that the factory has been built and we can draw lots this afternoon?"
Zhou Yujuan asked excitedly.
Qi Fang was also very excited. "I just came back from the factory. The factory building has been built. Now we just have to wait for the machines to enter the factory."
The leaders seemed to be optimistic about the development of this pig feed processing plant and directly hired a number of bricklayers, which enabled the factory to be built so quickly.
Hearing that the lottery would be held in the afternoon, the military wives were very excited.
"Director Qi, will the people who are selected be able to start working in the factory next month?"
Someone asked the most concerning question.
No one doesn't want to make money. If they can start work next month, they can get their wages earlier.
"Yes, if you are selected, you will be able to start working in the factory next month."
Hearing this, the military wives couldn't help but cheer.
It was as if they had all drawn the lottery.
Qi Fang raised her hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then continued, "The factory can start production so quickly, thanks to Comrade Fang Zhirou. If she hadn't worked hard to find raw materials for the factory, we wouldn't be able to start production so quickly."
If we were to say who made the greatest contribution to the completion of the factory, apart from Su Ranran and the leader, it would definitely be Fang Zhirou.
When most of the military wives first learned that Fang Zhirou was the one who was selected to work in the factory, they were not convinced.
Some people even said that they could go find the raw materials themselves.
But after being rejected once, no one raised any objections anymore. That job is really not something that ordinary people can do.
They can't even open the door, so where can they find the raw materials?
After hearing what Qi Fang said, everyone was convinced and gave Fang Zhirou the warmest applause.
At this moment, Fang Zhirou was standing next to Qi Fang.
Listening to the enthusiastic applause from below and seeing the military wives looking at her with gratitude one by one, Fang Zhirou suddenly felt an indescribable satisfaction in her heart.
She never thought that one day she would be appreciated by so many people like Su Ranran.
This is something Fang Zhirou has never experienced from her previous life to this life.
And this feeling is actually not bad.
In the afternoon, the military wives arrived at the gathering point early.
Because it is a work-related matter, the lottery must be fair, just and open so that everyone can be convinced.
Therefore, everything from signing in to putting the items in the box is done under everyone's supervision.
Everyone could only see Feng Dingguo writing, but could not see what he wrote.
Shen He next to him was responsible for stacking the signatures.
I don't know how he did it, but every piece of paper looked exactly the same after they were stacked.
The two of them signed their signatures together, and the military wives had no objection.
Because Feng Dingguo's daughter-in-law was not at home, Su Ranran did not participate in the drawing of lots.
This means that they have no conflict of interest with anyone.
After all the lots were stacked, Shen He showed them to everyone.
After making sure they were all identical and there was no difference, he dumped all the notes into the box.
Everyone looked at the wooden box in Shen He's hand, and suddenly they all held their breath.
Some superstitious people even secretly pray for the Bodhisattva’s protection in their hearts.
After pouring the note into the box, Shen He shook it before placing it on the table in the middle.
Feng Dingguo glanced at the restless crowd below, paused, and then spoke: "Now start lining up and come up in order. Each person can only draw one slip. If you draw more than one slip, it will be invalid and you will be disqualified from the draw."
It goes without saying what "in sequence" means.
Feng Dingguo was the head of the group, and no man present had a higher official position than him.
There were some restless people who wanted to rush in first, but after hearing his stern voice, they did not dare to act rashly and began to line up obediently one by one.
Today's lottery can be said to be something the entire family compound has been eagerly waiting for.
Not only are the military wives nervous, but their men are also very nervous.
However, no matter how nervous they were, the men just stood outside and watched quietly without saying a word.
Most of the people who drew the lots were military wives, but there were exceptions.
"Just sit there and let me smoke. You have such bad luck that you can't even get a good job if it's handed to you."
Jin Hongying glared at He Sanni who wanted to go up and draw the lot.
How could she feel at ease if she didn't do such an important thing herself?
He Sanni felt a little aggrieved. What was wrong with her luck? When she was at her mother's house, she had once won a chance to raise pigs.
But she didn't dare to say this, so she could only swallow her anger and step aside to let her mother-in-law go up.
On the other hand, Tian Sumei also wanted to draw the lot before Xie Fangshu.
Xie Fangshu looked a little unhappy.
She didn't want her mother-in-law to draw this lot.
If she wins the lottery, her mother-in-law will inevitably say that she earned the job for her. If she doesn’t win the lottery, she will feel unhappy.
Thinking of this, she stepped into the team first.
"Mom, you're tired today too. I think we'll have to wait a long time for this team. Let me do the drawing."
