"elder sister."
Wang Xiaolan saw who it was and said in surprise: "Liu San, long time no see. Where have you been? Why didn't you come to see me?"
After saying this, she cast her eyes on Amei beside her and looked at her carefully. Amei was now radiant and in excellent spirits, very different from before.
Her cheeks, which were originally as pale as paper, now had a healthy blush on them, revealing a sense of youthful vigor; her eyes were bright and energetic, shining like the dazzling stars in the night sky; her whole body exuded a positive and energetic aura that made people's eyes brighten.
At this moment, Wang Xiaolan felt unprecedented relief.
Amei called out shyly, "Sister."
Wang Xiaolan took her hand and said, "Amei is becoming more and more beautiful."
"Thanks to my sister's treatment, I am fine now and have never been sick again."
Wang Xiaolan looked at her and said, "You have to thank Liu San. He took care of you without giving up. I can only use medicine to treat your illness, but it can't compare to Liu San's meticulous care for you. This is more useful than medicine."
Liu San said, "Sister, you helped Amei and me. You are our savior."
As he spoke, Liu San took the child from Amei's arms and said, "Nini, this is your aunt. Call her aunt."
Wang Xiaolan looked at the child in Liu San's arms and asked in surprise, "How many months old is the child?"
"Half a year old."
Wang Xiaolan said angrily, "Liu San, you don't take me, your sister, seriously. You didn't even tell me that you had a child."
"Sister, you're so busy, how can I bother you? Besides, after Amei's mom passed away, I had to go out of town for business. I was worried about her being alone at home, so I took her with me. I only came back yesterday."
Wang Xiaolan took out twenty yuan from her pocket and put it into the child's pocket.
"Sister, you are so polite. I feel embarrassed."
"What's there to be embarrassed about? This is my gift to the child. Take it! Buy some milk powder for the child to supplement nutrition. The child is growing day by day, and it's not enough to just drink Amei's milk."
When Liu San heard her say this, he remembered that his child often woke up crying because of hunger at night, and that Ah Delicious's milk was indeed not enough.
"Sister, I'll take it."
Wang Xiaolan said, "That's right. What are your plans for coming back this time?"
"I haven't decided yet. I'll settle the mother and son first, and then find something to do in town. Do you have any suggestions, sister?"
Wang Xiaolan said, "I have a job here that is very suitable for you. Would you like to do it?"
Liu San said, "As long as it's my sister who introduces me, I'm willing to do it."
"Then, I'll take you to the factory first. If you think it's okay, I'll arrange it for you."
Several of them came to the pickle factory.
Liu San toured the factory and said with admiration, "It's really not easy for a village-run factory to reach such a large scale. Sister, is this factory yours?"
"I can't run a factory by myself, so I set it up in partnership with the village."
Wang Xiaolin said, "Sister-in-law, without you, could our village afford this factory? Although it's collectively owned, and except for the land, every piece of equipment here was purchased with your own money, there are still people in the village who aren't satisfied. In the past, a work point in the village was only worth a few cents, but now it's worth fifty cents, all thanks to subsidies from the two factories in the village."
"Director Wang, please stop talking. Even if you stretch out a hand, the fingers aren't the same length, let alone people. There are people like that everywhere. I won't make a fuss about it."
When Liu San heard what Director Wang said, he asked in confusion, "Sister, these people who don't know how to be grateful will suffer for the rest of their lives."
"After all, those who say this are a minority. Most villagers are good people. I do this mainly to ensure that everyone in the village has food to eat and lives a better life."
"Sister, just based on your character, I'm willing to work with you."
Wang Xiaolan nodded: "Okay, but it will be a little difficult at the beginning."
"Sister, I'm not afraid. I've done everything. I even became a beggar, and it wasn't difficult. What's more, you're giving me a legitimate job."
"I'm relieved that you have this confidence. I'm planning to set up a sales point in the county, and you'll be in charge of external liaisons. Develop new customers, and if you encounter any difficulties, ask Director Wang to help you. She's in charge of all matters in the factory."
"Okay, sis, I'll be at work sometime."
"Go to the county town tomorrow and look for a house. Find one that's a little bigger, preferably with space to store goods."
"Okay, I'll go look for a house tomorrow."
"Your base salary is 30 yuan a month. You'll get a commission of 0.5% based on your sales volume, with no upper limit. The more you sell, the more commission you'll get. You can take Amei with you. If you're not at the store, you can have her stay home to look after it and help you with chores. The factory pays her 15 yuan a month."
Liu San couldn't help but feel a surge of joy upon hearing this. His eyes widened, a look of disbelief on his face. Not only did this job pay better than at a state-owned enterprise, but even more exciting was that his wife would also receive a salary.
He thought to himself that if both he and his wife had a stable income, their lives would change dramatically. They could improve their family's financial situation and provide their children with a better education.
Thinking of this, Liu San's mouth corners couldn't help but rise, and his eyes flashed with longing for a better life in the future.
Such opportunities are rare. Only through unremitting efforts can you truly realize your dreams and live a happy and fulfilling life.
