Since everyone was so excited, Qiu Yuling didn't delay any longer. She quickly finished lunch for everyone and took the two of them to the factory.
Of course, exams are always necessary.
Li Yingchao was delivering the goods to the furniture factory. Lu Si came over to greet him from afar. "Director Qiu, you've arrived just in time. I was just looking for you. The wooden blinds you mentioned are now finished. Come and inspect them."
After she finished speaking, she saw the young man following behind her, "Who is this?"
Qiu Yuling leaned over and asked Li Yingchao to show himself to the public. She didn't dwell on their relationship, only saying that he had been educated and had learned some carpentry skills. "...Do you think we're short of help here?"
Lu Si slapped his thigh and said, "Of course we need it. You said we need to compile the drawings into a book, and we are in need of someone who knows the business and can write and draw. It's like giving someone a pillow when they are sleepy. The factory director always gives us whatever we need..."
After calling the workers and taking Li Yingchao away, Lu Si asked Qiu Yuling, "Tell me the truth, who is he to you?"
Qiu Yuling knew this person, "You are really something, nothing can be hidden from your sharp eyes. He is my second uncle's son, he is honest and hardworking. If he is not good enough, I will not bring him to you.
He had good grades when he was in school, but it was just a matter of time. And given the financial situation at home, it was the only way. But don't think that I should treat him differently just because he's mine.
How to use it and where to use it is up to you to decide. He will behave like others. I won't make up for anyone's mistakes. He only represents himself..."
To be frank, Qiu Yuling just didn't want the other party to think that she was giving them a Buddha statue, as that would only cause trouble.
What's more, after observing for the past six months, he found that his other two cousins had become workers, but he was still able to stay at home and work without looking for help from Li Qingmei or himself, which meant he had some integrity.
It is also appropriate to give some help.
"Okay, now I understand what you mean. You are such a person..." Later, the two of them took a few sips of wine from time to time. Now their relationship is more about sincerity than interests, and they are not as cautious as before.
Lu Si also thought that Qiu Yuling was a very interesting person, both simple and complex.
After settling Li Yingchao and Li Yingfen, Qiu Yuling took her cousin to Zaohua Primary School.
The school has hired a special principal, whom she poached from the cadre school. Sang Minli, who was just forty years old, left her family and career to come to this wild place to accompany her elderly father.
She invited Professor Sang to work as a translator at Zaohua Factory, and also tricked her into coming to the school so that the father and daughter could take care of each other.
At this moment, he brought the person forward and said, "Principal Sang, you said you were short of teachers. I found a candidate for you. Please evaluate him. It is up to you to decide whether to use him or not."
Sang Minli adjusted her glasses and said, "I don't know where it is, but it looks a bit like Teacher Li."
Qiu Yuling didn't hide it. "They are cousins, both graduated from junior high school, so they should be qualified to teach in elementary school. But it's up to you. I'm only responsible for the introduction. I won't interfere with whether you use them or not."
Li Yingfen straightened her chest. She was not really afraid of the exam.
Sang Minli pulled out a paper and said, "Okay, after you finish this, translate another ancient Chinese text."
Qiu Yuling stood aside, picked up a book by Sang Minli, and read it quietly without saying a word.
Sang Minli came over and said, "Director Qiu can read Russian!"
Qiu Yuling closed the book and said, "I have read the translated version of Quiet Flows the Don, but today is the first time I read it in Russian.
When I was in school, I was quite interested in both Russian and English. Besides listening to my teachers, I also studied a lot on my own, so I had no problem reading books.
"The February Revolution, the October Revolution, what similar experiences." Sang Minli picked up the book that Qiu Yuling had placed on the desk aside and stroked the cover for a while.
"If Director Qiu doesn't mind, I'll give you this book. A sword worthy of a hero!"
Although she was down and out, the nobleness of a scholar made her rarely look up to someone. Qiu Yuling was an exception. She could also feel the sober loneliness and integrity in her!
Qiu Yuling smiled with her eyes curved, as if she had picked up a great bargain. Without saying anything, she stuffed it into her cloth bag, wrapped it up, and tucked it under her armpit. "I won't give you a chance to regret it."
Sang Minli smiled and nodded at her, "You."
Qiu Yuling took the opportunity to say goodbye, "Principal Sang, you are at the helm here, I won't delay any longer, there are still a lot of things to do in the factory, if there is anything you need later, please feel free to tell me.
By the way, no matter who they are, we must treat them equally at work. You don’t have to worry about who they are or what their relationship is…”
Sang Minli smiled and nodded, "Okay, I know what I'm doing. Go ahead and do your work. I won't be polite with you."
Li Yingfen didn't look up during the whole process and answered the questions attentively. She understood that although the master led her to the door, the practice still depended on the individual.
It was finally time to get off work. My uncle and his wife were waiting anxiously at the entrance of Willow Alley. When they saw their three cousins talking and laughing coming over from afar, they knew what was going on.
The eldest sister-in-law came forward eagerly, "Yuling, I washed the jelly in the house and put it in the well water. It's already formed. Let's go back and eat it."
After saying that, he shouted to Li Yingchao and his daughter behind him, "You two should follow me. We can talk inside if we have anything to say."
As soon as they entered the yard, several people couldn't help chattering, and Zhou Hongfang's mouth was grinning from ear to ear.
"Why don't you two thank your cousin right away? If it weren't for her, there would be so many talented people out there. How could everyone achieve what they want?"
Qiu Yuling smiled and replied, "Thank you, auntie. They've been flattering me all along. They're just short of building me a lotus seat."
Li Qingfeng took the time to ask his nephew and his daughter about their performance today and their upcoming plans.
"Uncle, go back and tell my parents that I'll be back on vacation, and ask my dad to send me a bed and bedding tomorrow. There's a dormitory in the factory, and they've already allocated a bed for me..."
Li Qingfeng turned to his daughter, "What about you? Didn't you make any arrangements here?"
Li Yingtao replied as she set the table, "I'll go back with you and bring Xiaoxiu with me. I officially start classes next Monday, so I'll have time to move."
Only then did my uncle and aunt realize that their daughter had been assigned a single dormitory, so she had food, drink, toilet, and sleep all taken care of, and they felt relieved.
However, both of them tacitly agreed not to mention what to do with the son-in-law. Too much is as bad as too little, and it would not be good for the entire family to rely on their niece.
It was Qiu Yuling who took over the conversation. "Sister Fen, isn't your brother-in-law quite knowledgeable about mechanics?"
Li Yingfen's eyes lit up instantly. "He's just good at that. He built our bicycle by piecing together parts from here and there. It's a bit old, but it didn't cost him much..."
