Qiao Yulan deliberately provoked everyone's emotions and raised her eyebrows at Shao Jingque proudly.
I thought Shao Jingque would be furious, but unexpectedly I heard her speak calmly:
"I agree to change dorms."
Qiao Yulan didn't expect Shao Jingque to admit defeat so easily. She was surprised, but a look of joy appeared on her face - humph, what's the point of saying those harsh words just now, now he has no choice but to bow his head obediently!
Ke Shao Jingque continued:
"There's really no need for me to live in such a large single room by myself. This dormitory should be allocated to someone in our group who needs it more. Do you have any objections?"
When they heard that Shao Jingque agreed to give up the dormitory, everyone had no other opinions and nodded in agreement like fence-sitters.
Shao Jingque smiled slightly at this:
"Well, since no one has any objections, I propose that this dormitory be allocated to Comrade Wu Shuang and her family."
As soon as these words were spoken, the corridor, which had been bustling just a moment ago, suddenly became quiet.
Wu Shuang?
The field worker who lives in the stairwell?
Why should such a good dormitory be assigned to her?
Shao Jingque didn't wait for everyone to react and continued:
"Comrade Wu Shuang and her family of four have lived in a narrow stairwell for such a long time. They are the only staff members in our regiment who have not been assigned a dormitory. I believe there is no family that needs improved accommodation more than hers."
The art troupe's dormitories have always been tight, and Wu Shuang is a well-known honest person in the troupe. All the employees who joined the troupe later than her have been assigned dormitories, but she has not yet been allocated one.
Seeing that some people were still dissatisfied and wanted to speak, Shao Jingque spoke first:
"Sister Chen, if I remember correctly, the single room on the third floor of your house was given to you by Sister Wu two years ago, right?"
"Niu Lili, you were an outsider and didn't get a dormitory when you first joined the group. Luckily, Sister Wu took you in. You know the conditions in that stairwell very well. You only lived there for three days before you went to the group leader's office and cried and made a fuss, asking for a bed in a six-person room."
"You couldn't stand the environment after just three days, but Sister Wu's family has lived here for three years. Everyone, check your consciences. Shouldn't children who don't cry get no candy? Is there anyone whose accommodation conditions are worse than Sister Wu's?"
These words exploded in everyone's ears, and the few people who were eager to try just now also shut up in disappointment.
Seeing the situation change, Shao Jingque took the opportunity to show off in front of everyone. Qiao Yulan was feeling unhappy, but suddenly an idea flashed in her mind:
"You can switch with Wu Shuang, then you can live in that stairwell!"
Originally, Qiao Yulan had found an excuse that there were no empty beds and prepared a storage room with the worst conditions for Shao Jingque. But now Shao Jingque insisted on asking for trouble, so of course she had to help him.
Before Shao Jingque could answer, a timid voice suddenly emerged from the corner:
"No, no, Comrade Xiao Shao can't live in that place!"
The person who spoke was Wu Shuang, who had been standing in the corner. She was so moved by Shao Jingque's words that her eyes were filled with tears. She never dreamed that someone would stand up and speak for her in her life, and she never thought that this person would be Shao Jingque.
"That stairwell is dark and damp. A delicate girl wouldn't be able to stand it. But our family is used to it. It's fine. We live like this."
Qiao Yulan glared at Wu Shuang fiercely, saying that she was a hopeless case!
She felt extremely disgusted with Wu Shuang in her heart, but the words she said were pleasant:
"Sister Wu, your aunt has been ill for such a long time and hasn't gotten better. It must be because of the dark and damp environment in the stairwell. If she moved to a place with more sunlight, she might have recovered sooner."
"Xiao Shao is young and in good health. She should be able to hold on for a while without any problems. She's a single woman with no family to support. She'll be able to find a dorm bed in a few days. Wouldn't that be a perfect solution?"
Having said that, Qiao Yulan had already made up her mind. As long as Shao Jingque moved into the stairwell, she would have no chance of finding a bed to move out in a short time.
Shao Jingque found her smug expression ridiculous. It was okay for her to give up the dormitory to Sister Wu, but that didn't mean she had to suffer!
Shao Jingque spoke slowly:
"Then it's settled. This dormitory will be given to Sister Wu and her family. As for where I'll live, you don't have to worry about it. You should worry about yourself first. Are you comfortable wearing these wet clothes?"
After hearing what she said, Qiao Yulan realized that she was still dripping with water!
"You! You must move out within today! Don't even think about shirking your responsibility!"
Qiao Yulan didn't bother to argue with Shao Jingque anymore. She left a harsh remark and quickly ran to her dormitory, covering her chest with her hands.
After watching the excitement, those who did not benefit from it also dispersed.
Wu Shuang said to Shao Jingque feeling very sorry:
"Xiao Shao, I'm sorry to trouble you. Don't worry, I definitely won't let you move to the stairwell. You stay where you are. If they ask, just say it's me who doesn't want to move."
Shao Jingque took her hand and patted it gently to comfort her:
"Sister Wu, you can live in this dormitory with peace of mind. I'm happy to give it to you. Your family has many old and young people, and that stairwell is not a place to live. Living in that dark and damp environment for a long time will cause problems."
"Besides, the change of dorms was initiated by the deputy leader. Even if I didn't change it to you, I would definitely let someone else make it today. It turns out that I was ignorant and said a lot of unpleasant things to you. Consider this my apology to you."
Wu Shuang was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes and she kept shaking her head:
"What's the point of apologizing? Sister, I can't thank you enough. From now on, you are my biological sister, and your business is mine..."
