Volume 1 Chapter 61 Going to the City for a Meeting
He stood up with an angry look on his face and pointed at the four mother and daughters sitting opposite him.
"Another ten kilograms of coarse grains???"
"You four mother and daughters eat thirty kilograms of my coarse grains every month, and I think it's a waste of food!!!"
"You are all money-losing bastards. You can't give birth to a son and yet you want to use my things to subsidize my parents!"
"I don't mind you not being able to give birth to a son, and I don't mind your family being demoted. You should be grateful to me!"
"How can you have the nerve to ask this now?"
Director Wang's wife had red eyes and bit her lips tightly without saying a word. Director Wang felt unlucky when he saw her sad face.
He went out to eat at a restaurant without even eating, leaving behind the four people, mother and daughter, who were so thin that only bones were left at home.
It’s unlucky to see these four dying women at home!
“Wuwuwu…”
Director Wang's wife covered her face and cried non-stop. Seeing this, her three daughters could only go forward to comfort her on an empty stomach.
"mother……"
"Let's not have my dad anymore, okay?"
"Wuwuwu~ Mom, I don't want Dad!"
Director Wang’s wife looks after three daughters. The oldest is 15 years old, the second is 10 years old, and the youngest is only five years old.
If their man was gone, how could the four of them, mother and daughter, survive?
"Don't say such things! Don't let anyone hear them."
"He is your biological father."
Director Wang’s wife immediately covered their mouths, fearing that Wang Chaofan would suddenly come back and hear what they said.
Then they will be beaten again.
Director Wang's wife gave each of them half a steamed bun and put the rest back in the kitchen.
She was afraid that Wang Chaofan would come back and ask for food again, and if she couldn't get anything for him, he would take it out on her daughter.
The four of them, mother and daughter, could only eat steamed corn bread with cold dishes, which only made them half full.
But they didn't dare to complain. If they did, their father would definitely beat and kick their mother again.

Sheng Wanyan didn't know about Director Wang's family affairs, and even if she did, she didn't want to meddle in other people's affairs.
It is the most foolish thing for a woman to put her destiny in the hands of others.
Sheng Wanyan was always the first one to leave work during this period. As time went on, Director Wang hadn't seen her for more than half a month.
No matter how dumb he was, he knew that she was avoiding him. He didn't expect that this beauty was so vigilant that she discovered his purpose after just one encounter.
Director Wang was not in a hurry. After all, the monk could run away but the temple could not. He could take it slow and let Sheng Wanyan fall into his arms step by step.
Sheng Wanyan was too lazy to pay attention to him. How could a 35-year-old man have the nerve to think about these things?
She went to the post office to get her royalties and translated articles. The Kyoto newspaper had read her translation and asked in the letter if she was interested in translating books.
She has a rich vocabulary and is fully capable of taking on more difficult tasks.
Moreover, the translation of books is difficult as the translation cost is 1.5 points per word and there are many professional terms.
The letter stated that if she was interested, she could write back with the translated article next time, and they would send her the books later.
But the fee is charged per book, and you won't be able to finish it if you don't read half of it.
Sheng Wanyan feels that translated books are better and more stable.
She is not short of money now, so she can take on bigger translation jobs.
Sheng Wanyan took a look at the articles sent this time. They also thought that she would agree, and the number of articles sent was not many.
There are 40 articles in total, and she has just translated 40 of them and plans to send them over.
It's a good opportunity for me to mail them together tomorrow, and send my reply at the same time.
And when the next time the books arrive, she can also send out the 40 articles she just received today. The timing is perfect and her income will not be interrupted.
Sheng Wanyan took out the money from another envelope and counted it, there were a total of 320 yuan.
She translated a total of 32,000 words, which was exactly 320 yuan. Earning 320 yuan a month was really unimaginable in that era.
Sheng Wanyan sent out the translated article and letter the next day. After another month, she could collect money again.
Just thinking about this life is wonderful. Sheng Wanyan is very satisfied with her current life, 320 yuan a month, which is more than 3,800 yuan a year.
In addition, she occasionally went to the black market to sell some things and usually made some money from Wu Jiaxiu.
Becoming a millionaire with a monthly income of 10,000 yuan will not be a problem in four years. Won’t the funds for her to start a business and buy a courtyard house be here?
As soon as Sheng Wanyan stepped into the Propaganda Department, she was called over by Director Li.
"Comrade Sheng Wanyan, the city has sent a message requiring every factory to do a good job of publicity."
"The factory manager and I need to go to the city for a meeting. Come with me and take minutes."
Director Li thought about it and decided that it would be most appropriate to take Sheng Wanyan with him. She was young and her mind was quick, so she would definitely be able to remember things that he had not noticed.
"Okay, Director Li."
Sheng Wanyan did not refute. After all, this was something that would be extremely beneficial to her.
Moreover, riding in a car with the factory director will definitely leave a good impression, and will help you gain a firm foothold in the factory in the future.
"Go back and get ready. We'll leave at ten o'clock."
Director Li waved his hand and asked her to go back and prepare the things she would need for the meeting.
"OK."
Sheng Wanyan returned to the office and took out a brand new notebook and two pens and put them into the cloth bag.
"Wanyan, why does Director Li want to see you?"
Wu Jiaxiu was very gossipy and asked her in a low voice, but her colleagues in the department all pricked up their ears to eavesdrop.
"Let me go to the city with him and the factory manager for a meeting."
"real?"
Sheng Wanyan nodded, and Wu Jiaxiu looked at her with envy. She was going to a meeting with the factory director!
"You are so amazing that you can actually travel with the factory director!"
"Then can we get in the car?"
Niu Fangli's eyes darkened when she heard their conversation. Director Li had always taken her there before, as she had the longest working experience.
But before, she had always gone with Director Li, and even after going there so many times, she had never met the factory director going with her.
When we got there, there were no cars available, so we had to either take the bus, which was stinky and not ventilated, or ride Director Li's bicycle.
It’s so hot in hot weather, so cold in winter, and so troublesome in rainy days.
She has been here for so long, but has never ridden in a car, and that was a car that only leaders could apply for.
The only working car in the factory!
And the person traveling with me is the factory director!
How much benefit would it bring if the person with the most say in the factory could leave a good impression?
If Sheng Wanyan hadn't come this time, wouldn't the opportunity to work with the factory director belong to me?
Niu Fangli felt a little uncomfortable and looked at Sheng Wanyan with a hint of resentment in her eyes.
But she could only watch helplessly as the benefits that originally belonged to her were snatched away by Sheng Wanyan, who had only been there for more than three months.
I felt a little uncomfortable, but Sheng Wanyan was a popular person around Director Li.
