Chapter 50: I Walked into the Gun
Shang Ruoting pretended to wipe her tears with her sleeves.
"Mom, I didn't help you clean up the chicken manure on the ground just now. It's my fault."
"If you're angry, take it out on me."
When Vice Captain Wang heard Shang Ruoting mention the chicken manure on the ground, he subconsciously glanced at his shoes.
No wonder he always felt that there was a strange smell all over his body. It turned out that his shoes were full of chicken manure.
The same went for Liu Xiaocui; the edges of her shoes were covered in muddy chicken droppings.
Just now, she and Deputy Captain Wang rushed over to stop Zou Meihua and didn't even pay attention to their feet.
Deputy Captain Wang looked back at the road they had walked. Wasn’t the puddle in the middle just a pile of chicken manure?
"Zou Meihua, how do you do your job? You made chicken droppings all over the floor and you don't even know how to clean them up?"
Zou Meihua...
She had just been cleaning up the chicken manure on the ground. The more she cleaned, the angrier she became, so she put down her work and ran over to throw Shang Ruoting's eggs.
"Deputy Captain Wang, I didn't mean to spill the chicken manure. You came here before I had finished cleaning it up."
Deputy Captain Wang didn't believe her.
"Humph! You haven't even done your job properly, and you still have time to come here and throw eggs at Shang Ruoting. I think people like you have bad intentions."
Zou Meihua's face turned blue and red after being told by Deputy Captain Wang, but she had no choice but to accept the responsibility as it was right in front of her.
Deputy Captain Wang didn't look at her, but turned to look at the pitiful Shang Ruoting.
"Shang Ruoting, how is the egg production today?" This is the issue he cares about most.
Shang Ruoting stared at the broken eggs on the ground, a look of guilt on her face.
"Deputy Captain Wang, if these eggs hadn't been broken, the output would have been the same as yesterday's."
"Really?" Deputy Captain Wang was obviously a little bit unbelievable.
Every chicken laid eggs for two consecutive days, which had never happened before.
Even during the peak egg-laying season, no one can guarantee this.
Deputy Captain Wang admires Shang Ruoting's chicken-raising skills from the bottom of his heart.
"Liu Xiaocui and I came here today to personally witness the egg production, but we didn't expect Zou Meihua to bully you."
"If you can manage three chicken sheds by yourself, all the chicken farming work in the team will be handed over to you."
Shang Ruoting originally didn't want to work with Zou Meihua. They met every day in the chicken coop. Even if today's incident hadn't happened, she didn't want to see that selfish person who didn't even care about her own son.
She was originally thinking of doing something to take over all the work here, but she didn't expect that today, Zou Meihua would hit the mark by accident and get what she wanted without any effort.
Although taking care of three chicken coops was not a problem for Shang Ruoting, she did not want to exclude Old Lady Shang.
She didn't care much about earning work points. It was just right for her to take Old Lady Shang along so that she could take better care of the elderly.
However, she couldn't be too obvious in front of Vice Captain Wang.
"Deputy Captain Wang, no matter how wrong she is, she is still my mother-in-law. I can't take her job, right?"
"And my grandma, she's been working here for years, I can't..."
Deputy Captain Wang interrupted her, "From now on, you'll be responsible for the breeding of the three chicken coops, assisted by Li Rulan. Her work points will remain the same, but yours will be tripled. That's it."
Zou Meihua was stunned when she heard Deputy Captain Wang hand over all the chicken-raising tasks to Shang Ruoting in just a few words.
"Deputy Captain Wang, what should I do?"
Vice Captain Wang looked at her with displeasure: "What should we do?"
"Go find other work in the team. Also, all the eggs you broke today will be recorded in your account and deducted from your work points at the end of the year."
Zou Meihua was no longer so concerned about the deduction of work points, after all, she was caught red-handed.
But she really didn't want to lose this job. You know, every year when the chickens laid a lot of eggs, she would secretly take a lot of eggs home, which were much more valuable than those work points.
"Deputy Captain Wang, I'm also good at raising chickens. You can't stop me from doing this job..."
Deputy Captain Wang remained unmoved by her pleas and simply waved his hand: "Hurry up and clean up the chicken droppings on the ground, and hand over the work to Shang Ruoting in front of me."
Zou Meihua now understood that it was a foregone conclusion that Deputy Captain Wang would hand over the chicken-raising job to Shang Ruoting. Even if she tried her best to persuade him, there was no room for maneuver.
She didn't dare to make a scene with Deputy Captain Wang, so she could only blame all the misfortunes on Shang Ruoting. If it weren't for Shang Ruoting, how could she have lost her job raising chickens?
Zou Meihua cursed silently in her heart: Shang Ruoting, just wait for me, I will teach you a lesson sooner or later.
Shang Ruoting felt extremely happy when she saw Zou Meihua cleaning up the chicken manure in a dejected manner.
However, she couldn't show it in front of Vice Captain Wang and Liu Xiaocui.
"Deputy Captain Wang, you're all soaked. Hurry and take shelter at the door. I'll load all the eggs into the car and take them to the warehouse."
Deputy Captain Wang walked into the chicken coop with his hands behind his back: "I came here this time just to see if the sick chickens have recovered."
As he said that, he walked inside.
