"Well, Deputy Director Li, I'm Qin Huairu from the first workshop. I've been working in our factory for three years. You see, my salary is still 27.5 yuan. I have children and a mother-in-law to support at home. Do you think it's possible to raise my salary?" After seeing Li Qinghe finish talking to Director Yang, Qin Huairu carefully said to Deputy Director Li.
"Your case is not easy to handle. Everything must be done according to the factory's rules and regulations. Qin Huairu, there are more than 10,000 people in the factory, and many of them have suffered from family difficulties. I understand your situation, but we can't break the rules, right?"
He took a breath and continued, "If I set a precedent for you, then in the future, those who have difficulties at home will come to me, and it will be difficult for me to handle it. What do you think? Just work with peace of mind. As long as your skills improve, your salary will naturally increase."
He talked for a long time, and all his words were polite but without any loopholes. Qin Huairu, who was not well educated, didn't know what to say. In addition, she was nervous and fearful of her superiors because of her long-term attitude, so she couldn't say a word.
In the end, I could only reply, "I understand. Thank you, Deputy Director Li."
Ever since she became a widow, many people have wanted to take advantage of her. Although Deputy Director Li tried his best to hide it just now, the way he looked at her was the same as those people.
She already had a guess in her mind and knew it was useless to continue talking.
Deputy Director Li turned to look at Li Qinghe, "Master Li, after the movie, come with us to the cafeteria and have a drink together?"
"No, no, thank you, Deputy Director Li. I won't go. You guys are here to discuss the major issues of factory development. I'm just a worker who doesn't know anything. What's the point of going?"
Tonight is the night when He Yuzhu will attack Xu Damao. If I go there, I will only cause trouble for He Yuzhu. What if he gives up?
Deputy Director Li didn't know what Li Qinghe was thinking, but he thought Li Qinghe was sensible and looked at him with approval. He liked people who were so perceptive.
In fact, Li Qinghe just wanted to stay alive and live comfortably. There was no need for him to get involved in the whirlpool.
He didn't think that he was a time traveler and could jump around with the space. He hadn't lived enough.
He feels very comfortable in his position as an electrician. He has no conflict of interest with anyone and will not stand in the way of others. In addition, as the orphan of a martyr, no one can touch him unless he makes mistakes.
He doesn't want to be a leader, just to get a little more salary? He doesn't need it. Besides, the storm is coming, so what if he becomes a leader? He might be fired if he says something wrong.
When the storm is over, he will be only thirty years old, in the prime of his life. Coupled with the strengthening of his body by the space, his lifespan will inevitably reach the limit of the human body. Thirty years old may be just the beginning of adulthood for him, and he will have plenty of time to enjoy life.
That would be the time for him to take off. Plus, with his good relationship with the Lou family, he could extend his hand to Gangcheng and have the best of both worlds. Wouldn't it be much more comfortable than working hard for a position here and having to worry about being stabbed in the back?
…
The movie was coming to an end. Everyone in the movie was looking into the distance while singing. When the last line of the song ended, the workers around took their stools and left one after another.
The two factory managers had left long ago. They had seen this movie more than once and had no desire to watch it. They came here just to make a gesture.
"Sister Qin, Jingru, let's go together." Li Qinghe said to the two girls.
The two did not object and prepared to go back with their three children.
Lou Xiao'e also joined a few people. Xu Damao went to drink and curry favor with his leader. She was still a little scared to walk alone at night, so naturally she had to go with her neighbors.
Back in the yard, Lou Xiao'e said, "You haven't eaten yet? Do you want to go to my place for a bite?"
Li Qinghe naturally had no objection, he really didn't eat it.
"Then I'll trouble Sister Xiao'e."
Qin Huairu actually wanted to have a bite, but seeing that her cousin had three children and a mother-in-law at home, she didn't dare to ask.
Qin Jingru was also reluctant to leave and looked back every few steps.
After entering Xu's house, Lou Xiao'e pulled the cold rope, and the room instantly became brighter. "You sit down first, I'll go get the food."
Then he took out peanuts and a plate of scrambled eggs with chili peppers from the cupboard.
"Wow, your family has a pretty good life."
Who can eat like this these days? Eggs are a tonic, and green peppers, it's winter now, most people eat dried peppers, hanging them outside the house, and pluck a few when cooking.
"Okay, just eat it if you're given it to you."
Lou Xiao'e also sat down and asked, "Would you like some wine?"
"No, no, I can't drink well."
It's late at night, and you're a single man and a single woman. It's enough to just have some food. If you drink, people might start gossiping.
Bang!
"How can you be so cowardly as a grown man that you don't even dare to drink a glass of wine? Wait, I'll get it."
Lou Xiao'e slammed the table and stood up to get the wine.
She has never lacked food and clothing since she was a child, and she has drunk a lot of alcohol. If they really drink, even Xu Damao may not be able to drink more than her.
Li Qinghe couldn't say anything else at this time. Since others had said so, he could only accompany them.
Bang!
The table made a sound again, and Lou Xiao'e placed a bottle of wine on the table. Her mind had been in a mess from last night until now, especially when she received the medical examination report, her brain went blank for a moment.
The cause of her years of hardship was suddenly discovered, and she felt so aggrieved and delighted that she didn't know what to do.
The eldest daughter of a wealthy family was forced to marry an ordinary worker due to the situation. She was also criticized for not being able to lay eggs and was gossiped about behind her back. She even tried all kinds of folk remedies to have a child, but to no avail.
In order to maintain the relationship of the past few years, she couldn't tell the truth and had to keep it in her heart. She could only talk to Li Qinghe, who knew the inside story.
