Factory Director Liu was completely at a loss. He had initially thought Ma Hua was easy to deal with, but he was wrong. Ma Hua had a much worse temper than Nan Yi.
"Director Liu, why go to such lengths? Nan Yi's cooking skills are far superior to mine," Ma Hua thought for a moment and decided to offer Director Liu a better option.
After all, his father and older brother still worked at the machine repair shop.
Factory Director Liu nodded, said nothing, and left.
The machine repair shop was bustling, but the steel rolling mill was even busier.
Although the steel rolling mill was large, it held no secrets. Soon, news of Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai's affair in the courtyard the previous night spread throughout the entire factory area.
Now things are really messed up. Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai are now completely infamous in the steel rolling mill; wherever they go, they get pointed at and whispered about.
Yi Zhonghai could only maintain a stern face, putting on an unapproachable expression. Everyone respected his status as an eighth-grade worker and dared not approach him.
But Qin Huairu is different. Qin Huairu is like a piece of meat exposed to everyone's mouths. Who wouldn't want to try her?
Several people were spying on Qin Huairu in the workshop, and when the workshop director, Guo Da Piezi, found out about it...
Guo Da Piezi could no longer hold back. "You, Qin Huairu! You've been following me around for a while, but I never knew you were up to such a trick!"
Guo Da Piezi was getting angrier and angrier. He saw Yi Zhonghai going to the toilet.
He immediately pretended to inspect the workshop, then walked to Qin Huairu's workstation.
Guo Da Piezi picked up the workpiece that Qin Huairu had made. This thing didn't even need to be measured by machine; it was already substandard to the naked eye.
Guo Da Piezi quickly came up with a plan and immediately scolded Qin Huairu: "Qin Huairu, look at the work you've done!"
"Oh, Director Guo, who made you so angry?" Qin Huairu calmly stopped the machine before replying.
"Qin Huairu, stop joking around with me. Look at the workpieces you've processed, not a single one is up to standard!" Although Guo Da Piezi was infatuated with Qin Huairu...
But he also really hated Qin Huairu. Ever since Qin Huairu entered the workshop, the workshop he managed had been at the bottom of the rankings.
"Director Guo, look at what you're saying. It's inevitable that there will be some mistakes in the processing. That's unavoidable. Everyone has some defective products."
Qin Huairu snorted coldly. She naturally understood why Guo Da Piezi had come here to cause trouble.
Although Qin Huairu was stubborn, she was actually anxious. Why hadn't Yi Zhonghai returned yet? Where on earth had that damned Yi Zhonghai gone?
"Qin Huairu, you still have the nerve to call it a mistake? Other people's mistakes are mistakes, then tell me, didn't your workpiece have a mistake?"
Qin Huairu, you're amazing! Your error rate is 100%! Do you even deserve the salary the factory pays you?!
Guo Da Piezi sneered. "With Yi Zhonghai gone, I can still control you."
"Director Guo, I don't want to either, but I'm just a woman, I just can't learn it. What am I supposed to do?" Qin Huairu quickly pleaded.
Qin Huairu outwardly appeared weak, but inwardly she had already cursed Guo Da Piezi a hundred times over, and that Yi Zhonghai, where the hell were you? Didn't you see I got cursed again?
"If you don't know how, hurry up and learn. Here's what we've got: I just got a batch of simple workpieces in my office, how about..." Guo Da Piezi said meaningfully to Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu understood what Guo Da Piezi meant, but she wasn't one to act so casually. Besides, if Sha Zhu and Yi Zhonghai found out about this, her fishpond would be completely ruined.
"Thank you for your concern, Director Guo. However, I still think I should learn this first before learning the simpler workpieces you mentioned. Please rest assured, I will continue to work hard and strive to contribute to our workshop."
Qin Huairu replied with a smile, but a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
"Fine, fine, very well indeed, Qin Huairu. I hope you keep it up." Guo Da Piezi saw Yi Zhonghai's figure at the workshop door and, too lazy to argue with Qin Huairu any further, simply threatened her and left.
In fact, Yi Zhonghai had already seen this scene, but he also had his own ulterior motives. He also wanted to see if Qin Huairu could stick to her principles and resist.
He's happy now. Qin Huairu is still the same Qin Huairu, doing a good job. Yi Zhonghai would never have guessed that Qin Huairu had been having an affair with someone else for a long time.
When Qin Huairu saw Yi Zhonghai return, a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, but it was fleeting. She quickly changed her expression and said, "Uncle Yi, what am I going to do?"
"It's alright, they have no evidence anyway. It's broad daylight, they wouldn't dare do anything. Don't worry, I've got everything covered," Yi Zhonghai quickly reassured him.
"Yes, yes, you're not afraid, but what about me?" Qin Huairu thought to herself.
Actually, what Guo Da Piezi said wasn't impossible, but Sha Zhu had a grudge against Guo Da Piezi, and it was done so openly. He wasn't from the Eight Great Hutongs, so how could he possibly agree to it in front of so many people?
Inside the courtyard, a group of middle-aged women were washing clothes around the pool in the central courtyard, discussing what happened the night before, even though they hadn't gone out that night.
But their husbands all went home and told them how exciting it was! They lamented that they hadn't gone to see it yesterday; it was such a pity.
"Hey, Little Red's mom, did you hear about what happened last night?"
"You're talking about Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai, right?" Little Red's mother also became interested. These days...
Besides doing housework, the older women don't have much else to do, so they like to gossip, especially about sensational things.
"Yes, that's it,"
"Hey, I know, my man told me last night,"
