Factory Director Guan quickly intervened to smooth things over for his old colleague, warning that if the two kids continued, they would drive Old Jiang crazy: "Alright, don't you see what time it is? You've already finished eating, why don't you take a rest? Otherwise, how will you have the energy to work this afternoon?"
Actually, he thought through all the sad things he had experienced since childhood before he stopped laughing. Damn it, these two brats are so infuriating and hilarious. As long as they weren't talking about him, it was fine.
After Director Guan finished speaking, he pulled Director Jiang, whose face was almost turning blue with anger, away. He didn't want the guy to get seriously injured from anger. He wasn't young anymore, and he couldn't let two promising talents be burdened with rumors of causing their colleagues' deaths right after starting work.
After Director Guan and Director Jiang left the canteen, Director Guan couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Hahaha, no wonder he's a college student, that mouth, that mouth..." Director Guan couldn't find the words to describe it for a moment.
Director Jiang said angrily, "That's some serious rudeness. What did I do to offend those two?"
"Old Jiang, you need to have a good talk with your niece. You have no idea how many complaints I've received in the past two years, all caused by your niece. Don't let your niece ruin all the face you've built up."
"What they said isn't wrong. If you want to find a partner, find someone and have a proper conversation. What's going on here? It's like they want all the eligible young men in the factory to come to them. What are they trying to do?"
"Are you really waiting for someone to lose their temper and sue your niece for something that will implicate your whole family? Don't forget, if you walk by the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet. Today you've just kicked a hornet's nest."
"Don't think no one noticed. It was because the newcomer, Comrade Qian, was getting close to Xiao Sun that your niece deliberately went to cause trouble. The reason Xiao Qian didn't say anything wasn't because no one noticed, but because he was protecting Xiao Sun's reputation."
"Don't be fooled. The Sun family is not simple. Don't ruin your job."
Others might not know, but he did. When Xiao Sun first came, his former boss had called him and given him some instructions.
Director Jiang took a deep breath: "Am I really that clueless? I used to think my niece was quite pitiful."
"Then tell me, what's so pitiful about her?" He didn't see anything pitiful about her, he just saw that she was incredibly mischievous.
Looking at Director Guan's serious face, Director Jiang carefully recalled that all he could remember about Siyu was her weak crying. It seemed that every time he saw her, she was being bullied and crying pitifully.
Then someone would stand up and criticize the person who was going against Siyu, but he really didn't know what the specific reason was. All he could hear were Siyu's words, "No, I really didn't, she didn't do it on purpose."
He opened his mouth, but he couldn't really say exactly how Siyu was bullied. In the end, it was always the people who were talked about who bullied her, and they were the ones who suffered more. It seemed that she was always able to get away unscathed, and everyone was criticizing others.
Exactly! Why is it that the person who gets bullied always ends up winning? Is she really being bullied, or is she always the one bullying others?
Factory Director Guan chuckled: "Can't remember, huh? Your niece is always like this. She starts crying before she's even said two words, making it seem like everyone is bullying her. But I've asked her, and she always starts it. If anyone tries to argue back, she acts like she's suffered a huge injustice."
“Old Jiang, you’re not young anymore. Can’t you see the current situation at all? Don’t let a niece ruin all the hard work you’ve put in for half your life. You still have your own children.”
"Look at you, you don't even care about your own children, but you take better care of a niece than your own son and daughter. If word gets out, everyone will say you're heartless and confused."
When this job opening came up, the children in the factory were definitely given a chance first. At that time, Lao Jiang's son was a good candidate. Who would have thought that the one who would come in the end would be a niece? Lao Jiang had never been seen to visit his older brother's family much before. How could they have such a good relationship?
Old Jiang's son has to go out and find a job on his own. I heard he just found one recently, but it's only a temporary job. What is Old Jiang thinking? Is it really true that other people's children are closer to him than his own?
Old Jiang's flushed face turned deathly pale. He was clearly thinking of his own children. Ever since he brought his niece to the factory, his three children had become distant from him and rarely spoke to him, only exchanging a few stiff words when absolutely necessary.
Even his wife has become much colder towards him. It's been a long time since they sat down together as a family to chat and joke around after he got off work, like before.
Oh right, I seem to remember my daughter complaining to him before, saying that Siyu was no good and always trying to frame her. What did he say back then? Oh, he said that his daughter was always making trouble. We're all family, why bother with so much?
It seems that from that time on, his daughter became less close to him. He was really wrong. His older brother's child wasn't without parents, so why was he being so eager?
He didn't have a good relationship with his older brother. When they were young, his parents favored his older brother. It wasn't until after he got married and moved out that his life became a little smoother. He's only had a few years of good life, so how could he have forgotten about the past?
It seems I can't go to my older brother's house anymore. The women in his family cry too much. They've made him dizzy with tears. He doesn't care about his own family but is still worrying about his niece. It's not like his niece doesn't have her own parents. Why does he need to be so proactive?
By the way, my daughter is graduating soon, right? Shouldn't I start looking for a job for her?
Thinking of this, I stopped talking to others and quickly left.
Factory Director Guan shook his head as he watched Old Jiang's retreating figure. He had said these words countless times before, and he didn't know if Old Jiang would listen to them.
Sigh! I'm destined to be a busybody; I have to manage everything. He's not just the factory manager; he's the head steward of the factory, overseeing everyone's eating, drinking, sleeping, and other daily needs.
With the excitement over, the crowd dispersed, but three people remained, curiously watching Qian Xiao and Sun Kaicheng. They knew that Sun Kaicheng was considered the best-looking man in the factory after arriving, and he was also the aloof type.
Such people are hard to approach. In any case, the three of them had never spoken to this person. If Jiang Siyu hadn't been talking about this person all the time, they probably would have had only a vague impression of him.
However, this new female colleague really opened their eyes. She could curse without using a single swear word, and with just a few words, she nailed Jiang Siyu to the pillar of shame. Let's see if the male colleagues in the factory will still be eager to get involved in this.
