Chapter 242 Voluntary Resignation
How could Sun Erni not understand what she meant when she heard this? She immediately interrupted her and said, "Just tell me, do you want to ask us for money?"
Su Qiuyan blushed and whispered, "Mom, I'm not asking you for it, I'm borrowing it. I'll pay it back. I can write you an IOU, okay?"
Sun Erni felt relieved when she heard that it was a loan, but she was still cautious and asked, "How much does the house cost? How much do you have?"
Su Qiuyan pursed her lips and said, "The landlord wants 5,000 yuan. We have saved 2,200 yuan here, and we are still short of 2,800 yuan. Mom, we really have no choice. We are the only one among the three brothers who don't have a house. We originally wanted to wait for Jinwei to share the house, but now it is impossible to share the house. We can only buy it ourselves. Finally, we found a suitable one, and we really want to buy it. Mom, please help us!"
"No, don't talk for now," Sun Erni raised her hand to stop Su Qiuyan from talking, frowned and asked, "You have only saved 2,200 yuan in all these years? I see that you usually eat and drink very lavishly, and you also earn a little to supplement your family expenses every month, so where did all the money go?"
When Su Qiuyan saw her mother-in-law asking this, she looked away with a guilty look, "Well, I don't know where the money went. Alas, money is hard to earn, but easy to spend! Mom, look at the two children eating, drinking, clothes and shoes, which one doesn't cost money? A little here and a little there, it's all spent!"
Sun Erni glanced at her and said, "Who are you trying to fool? I have raised five children, how could I not know this?"
"Mom, really, I didn't lie to you."
Sun Erni shook her head and said, "I don't believe it. Tell me when you've thought it over. I have something else to do today, so I won't talk to you anymore." Sun Erni said and walked out, too lazy to argue with her.
"Mom..." Su Qiuyan watched her mother-in-law walk away without looking back, and she couldn't help but slump down in the chair. What should she do?
…
As soon as Jiang Xinbai arrived at the hotel, he walked towards the manager's office, knocked on the door, and asked, "Manager, I'm Jiang Xinbai, I want to talk to you about something."
Chen Tianrong was stunned when he heard Jiang Xinbai's voice, but he still replied: "Come in!"
Jiang Xinbai closed the door after entering. She looked at Chen Tianrong with a smile, "Manager, last time you said that if you voluntarily ask to be laid off, you can subsidize one year's salary, right?"
Chen Tianrong raised his eyebrows when he heard this and asked, "Why? Do you want to resign voluntarily?"
Jiang Xinbai smiled and nodded, "Yes, I want to be laid off and leave my job to someone who needs it more." No matter what, one still has to do a good job on the surface.
"Hmm? Think about it carefully. This is not a joke. Have you discussed it with your family? Don't sign it and then your family will make trouble."
Chen Tianrong looked at Jiang Xinbai seriously. In fact, for him, it didn’t matter who took the initiative to be laid off, as long as the targets were met.
Jiang Xinbai also nodded seriously, "We've discussed it, and my family all agrees."
Seeing that Jiang Xinbai was serious, Chen Tianrong was also afraid that she would regret it later, so he took out a piece of paper from the drawer and said, "Come, sign here. After signing, you can go to the finance department to collect the money."
"Wait a minute," Jiang Xinbai raised his hand.
Chen Tianrong suddenly looked a little embarrassed, "Why? Are you regretting it again?"
"I don't regret it. I just want to see what's written on the paper. I can't just sign it randomly!"
Jiang Xinbai picked up the paper and started reading it. After roughly reading it, he thought of nothing wrong and was about to sign it when he thought of something else. His writing hand stopped. "Manager, can you only compensate me for one year's salary? I think it's a bit too little."
Chen Tianrong: "..." You are so straightforward, I thought you didn't care! I didn't expect you to be waiting here.
He thought for a moment and whispered, "Originally, the compensation given by the higher-ups was one year's compensation. In this way, you are considered an old employee and support my work. I will apply for another half a year's compensation for you. How about that?"
Jiang Xinbai raised her eyebrows. Hey, just one sentence can earn her an extra half year's salary. That's fine! So she wrote down her name without hesitation.
Chen Tianrong looked at the document with Jiang Xinbai's name on it and smiled with satisfaction. After putting it away, he led Jiang Xinbai to the finance office and instructed, "Xiao Zhang, go through the resignation procedures for Comrade Jiang and give her this month's salary directly, for the whole month. There is also compensation for twelve months. How much can you calculate?"
The finance officer, Xiao Zhang, was stunned for a moment, but soon realized what was happening and started to use his abacus. After a quick calculation, he gave a number, "Three hundred and twenty-five, manager. Together with the salary, it's exactly three hundred and twenty-five. Do you think I should pay you now?"
"Give it to me! We'll get the formalities done right away."
"Okay, the manager needs your signature so that I can get the money from Xiao Wu." The money was managed by Xiao Wu, so he didn't have to make this trip. Since the manager was there, he might as well behave himself.
When Chen Tianrong saw Xiao Zhang leave, he took out five big unity notes from his pocket and handed them to Jiang Xinbai, "Here, I'll give you fifty first, and I'll give you the rest after that part of the money is approved. I've agreed with you in advance that you shouldn't tell anyone about this. Others don't have this, and you're the first one to support my work, so you get this treatment."
Jiang Xinbai happily took the money and stuffed it into his bag without even looking at it. He smiled and replied, "Of course, Manager, don't worry. I'm keeping my mouth shut!"
"That's good."
When Jiang Xinbai got all the money out, Sun Chaoying saw him. After thinking for a while, she walked over and said with a smile, "Sister Ying, I forgot to tell you that I took the initiative to handle the layoff procedures. I just finished the procedures and will not come to work in the future."
Sun Chaoying clapped her hands when she heard this. "Xinbai, did Manager Chen force you to do this? Tell me and I'll seek justice for you. How can you force someone to be laid off?"
Jiang Xinbai was touched by Sun Chaoying's kindness to her, but she also didn't want her to act rashly and be hated by Manager Chen, so she quickly explained: "Sister Ying, it's not true. I did it voluntarily. Manager Chen is very nice and didn't force me."
"Really?" Sun Chaoying was a little unconvinced.
"Really, Sister Ying, why would I lie to you?"
Seeing Jiang Xinbai's serious expression, Sun Chaoying believed what she said and sighed helplessly, "That's fine. You're still young. It won't be hard for you to find a job in a private store. The compensation will be worth it. As for me, I'm old and have nowhere else to go. I'll just live here one day at a time!"
"It's okay, Sister Ying. You're going to retire soon, so I think it's better to be patient for a while."
Although I don’t know when this restaurant will close down, it will definitely last until Sister Ying retires. After all, Sister Ying will retire in two months.
"Yes, just bear with it a little longer, and you will get your retirement salary when the time comes."
Sun Chaoying thought that although the retirement salary was only a little more than half of her original salary, she would have it as long as she was alive. Even if the restaurant went bankrupt, the government would still give it to her. She could get money without working, so it was a good deal no matter how she looked at it.
