Chapter 73 Treating Guests "Sister, I also have a job." ...
"How could you be so stupid!"
When Li Fengju heard that Wang Hui had promised her sister-in-law to give her one-third of her salary, she was so angry that she almost hit Wang Hui.
"I was afraid she wouldn't agree. She said she wanted to give it to her cousin." Wang Hui said aggrievedly.
"She did it on purpose. Can't you see that? Even if she wants to give it to you, will your mother-in-law agree? How could she give it to an outsider instead of her own family?" Li Fengju really felt very disappointed with Wang Hui.
"What should I do now? I already promised her..." Wang Hui felt a little regretful now. One third? That's a lot, and she still has to wash her clothes and cook her favorite dishes...
"What can I do? You're so clumsy and quick-witted! I'll just have to give it to her first," Li Fengju said. "You need to perform well once you get in. It would be best if you could stay. Then, I'll return her job and you can become a regular employee."
Wang Hui hadn't actually considered the idea of having to pay back a job. After all, her older sister had worked in a garment factory until the early 1990s. Hearing Li Fengju's words, Wang Hui remembered that jobs did have to be paid back, and she wondered why her older sister hadn't done so in her past life.
"I know I will perform well. Don't worry, I will definitely stay in the garment factory." Wang Hui said firmly. If her elder sister can do it, she can definitely do it too!
Li Fengju was unsure about Wang Hui, who was even better at sewing than Wang Ying. She wasn't sure if she'd be able to handle the factory's interpersonal relationships. Besides her concerns about Wang Hui, Li Fengju also harbored a grudge against the Du family. They'd gone to the Zhao family early in the morning, asking for help, but the Du family had gone so far as to plot against her daughter.
Li Fengju sighed. The Du family really couldn't compare to the Zhao family. Yet, this unimpressive little daughter insisted on marrying into the family. The Zhao family was so good. Yunsheng was good-looking, had a stable and easy job, and her two in-laws were good and kind. Their eldest sister-in-law, the head nurse, was also polite and willing to help...
"Mom, what are you looking at? And why are you sighing?" Wang Hui was most afraid of seeing this look from her mother. She also guessed what her mother was thinking. The more her mother acted like this, the more dissatisfied she became. She wanted to prove that she had made the right choice.
"It's a look of disappointment!" said Li Fengju.
"Okay, Mom, I'm doing fine!" Wang Hui hugged her mother's arm and acted coquettishly, "Look, I'm going to have a job soon, and Brother Jianguo has always been obedient to me."
Li Fengju wanted to say, "Your elder sister has established herself in the food factory and is now a team leader!" But she was afraid that Wang Hui would be sad to hear it, so she didn't say it. But she was also annoyed and didn't want to say anything more, nor did she want to see Du Wenxiu again. She just said, "I'm going back. You should go back to the ward too. Wenxiu can't do it alone."
"Mom, have a safe trip." Wang Hui didn't keep Li Fengju and returned to the ward carrying the thermos and lunch box.
"Why did you take so long!" Du Wenxiu complained as soon as Wang Hui arrived at the ward.
“There are many people getting food.”
Wang Hui walked over to Du Wenxiu, helped her sit up, put down the table, placed the lunch box in front of her and said, "Eat quickly."
Du Wenxiu took a look at the meal Wang Hui had prepared for her and muttered, "There's not even any meat."
"My mother didn't give me any meat tickets either," said Wang Hui.
As Du Wenxiu ate, she thought about the man who had saved her yesterday. He was her lifesaver, but it was a shame she hadn't even seen him clearly. She also thought about her boyfriend at the factory. If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have come home so late yesterday, wouldn't have fallen, and every time he mentioned marriage, he would be hesitant and wouldn't give a definite answer...
"You just stand there and don't even pour me a glass of water!" Du Wenxiu was annoyed and said to Wang Hui in a bad mood.
Zhao Yunfei passed by here and wanted to come over to take a look, when she happened to hear Du Wenxiu complaining to Wang Hui.
Wang Hui hadn't intended to argue with Du Wenxiu, but when she saw Zhao Yunfei approach the ward door, her face flushed. Even though no one knew she was reborn, she didn't want to embarrass herself in front of her sister-in-law from her previous life.
"Can't you just say it nicely if you have something to say? I've been with you until now, serving you tea, water and meals. What else do you want?" Wang Hui said to Du Wenxiu.
When Du Wenxiu saw Zhao Yunfei coming, she didn't say anything. After all, she was not married yet and still wanted to be famous. She was different from Wang Huike.
Zhao Yunfei pretended not to see the quarrel between the two sisters-in-law. She walked to the bedside and asked Du Wenxiu, "When did you take the temperature?"
"Half an hour ago, it was a little high, 37.2 degrees," said Du Wenxiu.
"We need to observe it further." Zhao Yunfei said, "How do you feel about your legs?"
"I don't feel anything now," Du Wenxiu said. "It's like I don't have this leg anymore..."
Zhao Yunfei smiled and said, "The anesthetic hasn't worn off yet, so you should have a good rest. If you need anything, come find me at the nurse's station."
"Thank you for your help." Du Wenxiu said.
"You're welcome." Zhao Yunfei turned and left.
After Zhao Yunfei left, Du Wenxiu stopped arguing with Wang Hui and lowered her head to eat. Now that Wang Hui was here, she had annoyed her and there was really no one to serve her.
Du Wenxiu stayed in the hospital for four days. Wang Hui ran back and forth between home and the hospital. She was exhausted and thin. Finally, she helped Du Wenxiu get discharged from the hospital.
While Wang Hui was busy serving her sister-in-law, Wang Ying was also busy in the workshop every day.
On Saturday, colleagues on the early shift did not rush to leave, and colleagues on the late shift arrived early, and finally completed the production target of peach cakes before the normal working hours.
After the last batch of peach cakes came out of the oven, the whole workshop breathed a sigh of relief.
“Finally done!”
"I'll have a good rest tomorrow."
Fang Hongjun smiled, a rare gesture, and said to the team members, "Comrades, you've worked hard. Have a good rest tomorrow, and come back to work as usual the day after tomorrow. Team Leader Wang will train you on new products. You'll be assigned positions based on your performance during the training."
"We still need training? Won't that waste time?"
"Don't you know that sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood? If everyone finds a suitable position, they can better achieve the target." Luo Wenshu said.
Some people echoed Luo Wenshu's words, while others were still grumbling, worried that they would be transferred from light jobs to heavy jobs.
Fang Hongjun didn't help Wang Ying explain, but just said, "Get ready to leave work."
During this week, the comrades in the fourth workshop had become somewhat familiar with Wang Ying, but as soon as they heard about the on-the-job training, they suddenly became distant from Wang Ying again. It could be seen from their words and actions without words.
Wang Ying didn't expect these people to understand her immediately, so she had to do whatever she wanted to do.
After get off work, I went to the locker room. The people in the fourth workshop didn't talk to Wang Ying like they did in the past few days. Only Xu Lili and Tian Yulan were still the same as before.
After leaving the locker room, Wang Ying and Xu Lili reunited. Xu Lili said in a dissatisfied tone, "These people are really terrible. As soon as they heard about the training, it was like they were going to die. They didn't care whether it was good or bad, they just thought it must be a bad thing. I don't know what they are thinking."
Wang Ying smiled and said, "Ordinary people are afraid of change and new things. They worry that they won't be able to learn, and they worry about having to do heavy work. It's not hard to understand."
"Tsk, new things..." Xu Lili sighed, "The team leader is right, people are conservative."
"But there will always be people who innovate, and there will always be people who keep up with the pace. Let's take it slow," said Wang Ying.
"The team leader is right. I will always follow his pace and walk on the road of innovation!" Xu Lili said with her head held high.
Wang Ying smiled. Actually, this is not completely innovative. To be serious, it can be said to be retro. They are still far from real innovation and have a long way to go!
After returning home and entering the yard, Wang Ying saw steam coming out of the kitchen door. She walked straight to the kitchen door with her bag on her back.
"What are you burning? It's steaming hot."
"I'm back. Hehe, I bought some beef today and stewed it." Zhao Yunsheng said.
"Oh, this is not easy." Wang Ying sniffed and indeed smelled the aroma of beef.
"Give our little Yingzi some nourishment." Zhao Yunsheng said with a smile, "We still have two months to go."
Wang Ying chuckled twice: "Then I'll try your cooking skills later."
"Well, go and rest for a while. I'll call you when I'm ready," said Zhao Yunsheng.
The kitchen was warm and Wang Ying didn't want to leave. She put her bag back in the main room and went back to the kitchen.
Zhao Yunsheng was glad to see her back, but he refused Wang Ying's offer of help. He moved a small chair and placed it near the stove, saying, "Just sit with me."
Wang Ying sat down and said with a smile, "I'm so sorry, I just saw you busy."
Zhao Yunsheng also smiled: "With you by my side, I am happy to do anything."
Wang Ying sat in front of the charcoal stove, his whole body warm. The beef in the pot was bubbling, and the steam rising from the edge of the pot made the whole kitchen seem to be shrouded in clouds.
Wang Ying is not as emotional and imaginative as Zhao Yunsheng. She just thinks that this feeling is pretty good.
"The kitchen is quite warm today. Do you want to take a shower later?" Zhao Yunsheng asked, "Or tomorrow at noon?"
"Let's wash later." Wang Ying squinted his eyes and felt a little sleepy.
Zhao Yunsheng was talking to Wang Ying, and Wang Ying gradually began to doze off...
Wang Ying took a nap and felt a little weightless. He leaned back and leaned on Zhao Yunsheng's legs.
Zhao Yunsheng smiled and touched Wang Ying's face: "Look how trapped our Yingzi is."
"It's mainly because it's too warm," Wang Ying said. "Is dinner ready?"
"Okay." Zhao Yunsheng said.
The two of them brought the food to the main room, and the family closed the door and ate the beef happily.
After dinner, Zhao Yunsheng upgraded the "tent" where Wang Ying took a bath, allowing Wang Ying to take a warm bath.
Early on Sunday morning, Wang Ying and Zhao Yunsheng were washing clothes in the yard when Wang Yongren came and invited Wang Ying and his family to have dinner at Old Wang's house.
Since his father-in-law had come to invite him, Zhao Yunsheng had to accept. Director Zhao and Chen Xiuqin naturally agreed as well. Wang Yongren invited the guests, but he didn't stay long and rode away on his bicycle.
Zhao Yunsheng asked Wang Ying: "Why did my parents suddenly invite us to dinner? What's going on? Or is it someone's birthday or something?"
"I don't know. Maybe it's to thank my elder sister for helping the Du family in the hospital." Wang Ying said casually.
After Wang Ying and Zhao Yunsheng finished washing the clothes, they were reluctant to go back to Old Wang's house. It was only after Director Zhao and Chen Xiuqin urged them twice that they came down from upstairs.
A family of four rode two bikes to Lao Wang's house.
When they arrived at Old Wang's house, they found that not only Wang Ying and his family were there, but Wang Hui and his wife were also there.
The moment Du Jianguo saw Wang Ying, he felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if he missed her very much. But before he met Wang Ying, he didn't have this feeling...
"Sister, brother-in-law, Uncle Zhao, Aunt Zhao, you are here." Du Jianguo didn't dare to look at Wang Ying for too long and greeted them.
"Jianguo, Huihui, you are here too, but your mother is not here?" Chen Xiuqin said.
"The family needs someone to stay home," said Du Jianguo.
Wang Yongren came out of the kitchen and welcomed them into the main room for tea.
While drinking tea, Wang Hui said to Wang Ying with a bit of pride: "Sister, I have a job too. I will start working in the garment factory tomorrow."
"Well, then you should do your job well. The work in the garment factory is not easy." Wang Ying said lightly.
"Sister, why aren't you happy for me?" Wang Hui felt that Wang Ying must be jealous of her because she could get a job in a garment factory without taking an exam.
"Are you a formal employee? Aren't you just temporarily replacing your sister-in-law?" Wang Ying said.
Wang Hui's face changed and she blamed her father in her heart. It must have been her father who told her eldest sister when he went to her eldest sister's house.
"Once I get into the factory, I will definitely be able to stay. Just wait, sister," said Wang Hui.
"Well, I'll wait." Wang Ying was wondering why they were invited to dinner today. Maybe it was to celebrate Wang Hui's job at the garment factory. She felt that her parents were not capable of doing such a thing.
