Wang Zhaodi wanted to change her name. It was not difficult to change one's name these days. It was even more convenient for someone to change her name when she moved her household registration, as she did.
However, Wang Zhaodi was really stumped as to what to change it to. If she was uneducated, she wouldn't even know how to come up with a name. She looked at everyone eagerly, and everyone was honest and gave suggestions one after another.
"I think it's good to cherish yourself. Cherish yourself."
"You can call her Ling Zhao. Ling means beautiful and Zhao means bright."
"You can also call me Sitian, let's live a sweet and happy life."
"You can also call it Xiangyang, what a good meaning it has."
"If not Guiying, Mu Guiying is very powerful, so let's call her Guiying too."
"If you think all this is too complicated, then you can call him Wang Xin, which means new life, to represent a new and different life. You can also call him Xin, which means happy life in the future."
With everyone talking at once, just a few people managed to create the effect of a vegetable market.
Wang Zhaodi was at a loss just now, but now she feels that there are still many choices! Everyone is so nice! She was so moved that she almost cried and said happily: "Thank you!"
After a pause, he said, "My children can also use these names in the future."
Well, I collected them all at once.
"Pfft, you're so greedy." Mingmei teased coquettishly.
Wang Zhaodi was serious: "You are uneducated. You have so many good names. My baby can use them when the time comes."
This is when the importance of surnames comes into play. Daqiang's surname is Ye. It's really easy to give a child a name. Whether it's a boy or a girl, it sounds good. It doesn't sound like Bai, which would be wasted if you're not careful. It doesn't sound like Zhuang, which would sound empty if you're not careful.
The name Daqiang is very common, but Yeqiang, does it sound okay? If she has a boy, she can name him Ye Xiangyang, if she has a girl, she can name him Ye Sitian, or if she has a boy, she can name him Ye Xin, and if she has a girl, she can name her Ye Xin.
Just thinking about it, Wang Zhaodi felt like she could wake up laughing.
Zhaodi became happier and happier as she thought about it. Mingmei said, "What about you? What do you want to be called?"
Wang Zhaodi thought for a moment and said, "I think Guiying, Zizhen and Xinxin are all very good."
Zhao Guihua's eyes flashed, she felt that every era has its own aesthetic. People of her generation, who were uneducated, would like to call things flowers and plants, but at this time they just liked to use the words Fang Ying Xiu Zhen Ling.
Wang Zhaodi continued, "I plan to call myself Zizhen. They don't cherish me, but I hope I can cherish myself."
Mingmei: "That's good, Wang Zizhen. It sounds really good."
Wang Zhaodi smiled and said, "Of course, thank you for helping me think of a good name."
Everyone laughed. Wang Zhaodi said, "When I change my name tomorrow, I will no longer be the Zhaodi I used to be."
She felt particularly happy when she thought about it, and everyone was happy for her.
Zhao Guihua asked: "So you have severed ties with your parents, has that been put on paper?"
Wang Zhaodi nodded: "Yes, they all put their fingerprints on it. I didn't give it to Brother Daqiang. I kept it for myself."
Although it was Daqiang who paid for it, Wang Zhaodi still kept it for herself. She felt that she was a little calculating, but she didn't want to put her fate in the hands of others. Even if this might not be important, it reminded her that his parents would give up her warning symbol for a hundred dollars.
This made her realize that she must not be soft-hearted towards that family.
However, she didn't think she would go back again. As long as she didn't go back, they would actually have no contact.
Aunt Zhou: "You should live a good life in the future, work together as a couple, and stop thinking about those things in your hometown."
Wang Zhaodi nodded: "I know."
She smiled and said, "I can't let you go through all this trouble for nothing."
Aunt Zhou: "Well, it's nothing. If I hadn't been unreasonable and wanted to take advantage of them, they wouldn't have been so anxious to get us out. Wouldn't this matter be handled quickly? You can't give them time to think about this kind of thing. If they think about it carefully, they might ask for too much. Besides, you and Daqiang might reveal some flaws. If they get a hold of it, it will be a mess. But I'm like an old shrew making trouble. In order to get rid of me quickly, they must get rid of you quickly."
She doesn't act for nothing.
At this time, even Zhao Guihua and Aunt Wang gave a thumbs up. Aunt Zhou chuckled and said, "You haven't experienced this kind of thing, so you don't know. This is how you deal with people who are weak. Don't think that you have to sympathize with them just because they look pitiful. Some people are just mean at heart."
Zhao Guihua: "Will his family come to the city in the future?"
As for this matter, Wang Zhaodi herself has a lot to say about it.
She said, "They won't come. They have lived in the mountains for a long time and are content with the status quo. How dare they come out? Our village is so poor because of these. Do you remember the story about selling eggs? They don't even have the courage to come out to sell eggs. In fact, they are unwilling to do so even if it takes only two hours to walk along the mountain road. How can they take a few buses and then come here to find me? That's impossible. Now they have taken 50 yuan from Aunt Zhou and 100 yuan from Brother Daqiang. They are eager to replenish their bodies and fight for a son. My mother is pregnant again. But even if they really come, I'm not afraid. They can find people to stick together in the village. They can't do whatever they want here."
It has to be said that Wang Zhaodi has become much more confident since she severed ties with her family.
Zhao Guihua reminded her again: "That Su Zhaodi's mother-in-law is your legitimate aunt, right? Your mother's biological sister, will she come to cause trouble?"
Zhao Guihua, although not a well-educated person, has experienced hundreds of years of ups and downs. Although her IQ will not increase, she has a lot of experience. She has much more experience than anyone present, and she can consider all aspects when thinking about things.
Here it is, the point has been made.
Zhao Guihua: "If this person comes, you have to think about how to deal with him."
Wang Zhaodi: "I won't recognize her."
She sneered, "When my family was in trouble before, she never showed up. Although she is my aunt, I have only seen her twice since I was a child. She would never associate with mountain relatives like us. The first time I saw her was when my eldest sister got married, and the second time was when she went to the village to bring me out this time. So I don't care who she is. If she dares to come, I will scold her. Who does she think she is, running here to act like a big shot?"
Zhao Guihua gave a thumbs up and said, "You are right."
She felt that Wang Zhaodi was really different from before. Although she was becoming more and more confident, she was still a shy girl. But now she was really different. Perhaps it was because she had really left that terrible family of origin, completely left it, that made her different all of a sudden.
Zhao Guihua: "If she really comes, don't start cursing, just start crying! You will cry anyway, right?"
Wang Zhaodi: “Huh?”
Zhao Guihua: "You are crying loudly. You said that your parents sold you early in order to have a son! You said that you have only seen this so-called aunt twice since you were a child. You don't even know if this is your aunt. Even if she is, she has no contact with your family. Even if they do, what relationship do you, a daughter who was sold, have with them? Tell the truth! Although the people in Xinghua are not heroes who hate evil, they are kind-hearted and will never watch her bully others. You cursed at her, and others didn't know what was going on. You see, your matter is not complicated, you can explain it clearly in three sentences, and you cry and wail! Just like this, I don't believe she dares to come to you again."
Wang Zhaodi: “I understand.”
She thought about it and it seemed to be true.
Aunt Zhao still has the idea.
Zhao Guihua: "You have shown weakness twice. If she dares to come again, you can use the broom to chase her away. After all, she is just a distant relative. You don't have to worry about her. Look, is helping you. You can't stand up and let someone you don't even know bully you! You can also yell. Even if your parents come, it has nothing to do with them."
After a pause, she smiled, "Daqiang and his team are all big men. Go talk to your good cousin! Don't fight. You can always teach him a lesson. You can tell him that if those two old bastards of your parents cause you trouble, you can talk to his younger generation. I'm not really asking you to do anything. I'm just trying to scare people, right? People like this are all cowards. I don't believe this family dares to cause trouble again."
As soon as Zhao Guihua finished speaking, Aunt Zhou said: “…”
Aunt Wang: “…”
Zhao Guihua is incredible. No wonder they think Zhao Guihua is not easy to mess with. She even threatens her.
Zhao Guihua: "What are you looking at? I'm not asking them to do anything. We can always have a chat."
Wang Zhaodi: “…Okay!”
She felt that she had mustered up all her courage.
But soon, she was discouraged again. Oh no, not discouraged, but laughed happily. She said, "It's great that I left home."
She didn't understand before and thought that life was just like that. But after coming here, even though everyone was noisy and making a lot of noise, she realized that life shouldn't be lived like that in his family.
Wang Zhaodi's mother is called Wang Qin. Wang Qin was born in a family that favors boys over girls. It's not just a normal family that favors boys over girls, but a very strong family that favors boys over girls. Her mother is of the same lineage as her grandmother. After being married for so many years, she has given birth to daughters one after another and has been pregnant and having children all year round. Her mother is obviously much younger than Aunt Zhou, but she looks much older than Aunt Zhou. You know, Aunt Zhou was widowed at a young age and raised a child. Her life was hard and she looked older than her peers.
Her mother is just over 40, but she looks older than a lady in her early 50s.
Her mother was despised by the villagers because she couldn't give birth to a son. She was submissive outside. Not only her grandmother, her aunt, but even outsiders could bully her mother at will. Her mother had no complaints, but instead went home to vent her anger on her daughters.
Even though her mother is the one being bullied outside, she often takes her anger out on them by beating them when she gets home.
She hit her daughter more than anyone else.
He looks so weak and vulnerable, but he can be very cruel and vicious to his daughter.
As for her father, he is very cunning. He doesn't do anything because he has her mother! Her mother will do anything, and she will give all the good things to her father, so her father doesn't need to do anything. He can enjoy everything. Wang Zhaodi thought that she had left these two people, and she couldn't be motivated, because she would laugh out loud because of leaving.
“That’s great.”
"When you get married and live a good life with Daqiang, if he bullies you, come back and tell your aunt, and we will help you. Don't think that you can be bullied at will just because you don't have a mother's family. You have lived in our courtyard for such a long time, we can't watch you get bullied. We are all family." Zhao Guihua said.
Zhaodi nodded vigorously.
She knew that even if some girls in their village got married, their parents would not be so bold as to say that they would stand up for their daughters. But they were just neighbors, and Wang Zhaodi felt very warm.
Mingmei said at this time: "If anyone bullies you, you can tell me. Don't look at my skinny figure, I can beat three people by myself."
Zhaodi laughed and said, "Sister Mingmei, I know you are very capable."
There have long been legends about her in the world.
"Zhao Di, although you are married to Da Qiang, there are many new graduates and those from poor families who cannot find jobs in the street offices. It is difficult to find a job for someone like you." Jiang Lu was more straightforward. She said, "You two have to save some money. Why don't you come to my place to help?"
She said, "You know my family's situation. We are too busy to handle it. I will give you ten dollars a month. Is that okay with you?"
This is because everyone in the room is an acquaintance, otherwise Jiang Lu would definitely speak in private.
Wang Zhaodi waved her hands in surprise: "No, no, no, you have helped me so much, I can't take your money..."
Jiang Lu: "No, let's put it this way. I won't give you ten yuan all the time. When my child grows up, I will definitely stop giving him ten yuan. And you will definitely have children after you get married. When you take care of your own children, you may not be able to come to our side to take care of them. If I ask you to do odd jobs, I won't give you ten yuan."
Wang Zhaodi: “But…”
"Don't say but, do you think the money is too little?"
Wang Zhaodi shook her head vigorously: "No!"
How could she feel that the money was too little?
Everyone laughed and said, "That's settled then."
Wang Zhaodi thought that Aunt Zhao still had one month left, so she quickly said, "I'm very diligent and can do the work for both families."
Zhao Guihua: "Okay."
Wang Zhaodi: "I will deduct the fees for the days I'm away."
Zhao Guihua: "Okay."
She doesn't argue about this.
Wang Zhaodi laughed happily.
Wang Zhaodi's return was good news. Similarly, as a neighbor, Aunt Zhou really didn't expect Bai Fendou to get married in such a short time. She said in surprise: "Chen Yuan didn't make trouble?"
You see, everyone knows that Chen Yuan will cause trouble.
Zhao Guihua suppressed her laughter and said, "No! Chen Yuan hasn't been in the yard recently. He's hiding from Bai Fighten."
Ever since being "communicated" with by Bai Fendou in public, Chen Yuan's reputation has become even more bizarre, and Chen Yuan himself deeply feels that Bai Fendou is interested in him. Although Chen Yuan is usually arrogant, he has never dealt with such a situation before, and he was so scared that he hid back at his parents' place.
She has been away for the past two days, and Tao Yuye is the only one who comes back from get off work every day.
But it seemed like it was not bad that Chen Yuan was not around. They all smelled Tao Yuye cooking meat at home.
When Chen Yuan is not at home, Tao Yuye eats well at home.
This couple are really not simple people.
Aunt Zhou: "Oh, I'll go~"
"What kind of person would marry Bai Fendou?"
"A young wife who was cheated and abused by her husband's family." Aunt Wang summed it up in one sentence, but she did not mention that this person had a bad background.
Aunt Zhou: “What?”
She widened her eyes: "Can this still be bullied?"
Even though she wasn't a good person in the past, she was very brave in resisting.
No one from her natal family or her husband's family should take advantage of her. For example, when her husband left, her husband's eldest uncle wanted to take the job away from her. She didn't show any mercy at that time. She cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang herself. In the end, she didn't get what she wanted.
So Aunt Zhou really can't understand weak and indecent people who are bullied by others.
She said: "This won't make Bai Fendou bully you, right?"
"That can't be possible. Bai Fendou finally found a wife."
"That's true."
The women were all chatting at home, and the topic was about Comrade Bai Fendou, who was even very energetic when sweeping the floor. He was married now, and that was totally different from before. He cleaned quickly today and went into the house to rest soon.
As soon as I came in, I saw Wang Xiangxiu was there too. Wang Xiangxiu was sitting there quietly wiping her tears. When she saw Bai Fendou come in, she wiped her face and said, "I'm going out."
This room is where many people in the logistics department keep their various tools. Whether they are toilet cleaners or those in logistics, they will come here to rest. However, as they were a single man and a single woman, Wang Xiangxiu went out. Bai Fendou glanced at her back and looked away.
He has a wife and children now, and can't control others.
Wang Xiangxiu didn't go to Bai Fendou to complain. She was just upset. How could she not feel bad when she thought about Jin Lai going to jail again? As a mother, she did everything for her son. But why couldn't she manage Jin Lai? Three years! She didn't know how he was going to survive in there.
Although Wang Xiangxiu felt uncomfortable, she did not dare to miss a day's work. She had two other children at home. Although she had some money, she did not dare to spend it lavishly. After all, Yinlai's health needed long-term care.
Tonglai... Tonglai is the only one she can rely on now. She also hopes that Tonglai can go to high school and have more options.
Even though people now say that education is not important, in big cities, people still tend to be more educated. They have more experience and know that if they have the same background, those who are more educated will definitely have more opportunities.
Just like now, many factories no longer recruit workers unless they are high school graduates.
In fact, it is just screwing in the screws in the factory. High school students are needed for any job. Even those who have not received education can do it. But who can blame the shortage of workers nowadays? So naturally, they would look for better ones.
So even though it seems that studying is not important at this time, many people who have the conditions will continue to study in high school. This gives them more opportunities.
However, it is not easy to pass the exam from junior high school to high school.
Wang Xiangxiu hoped that Tonglai would have more opportunities, so that he could live a better life and take care of his useless elder brother and his second brother who was in poor health. Wang Xiangxiu sighed and continued to work.
When Zhuang Zhixi came out to use the toilet, he saw Wang Xiangxiu working while crying. He hesitated for a moment and turned to go to another toilet. She was crying so much that people would think something had happened to her.
Jin Lai was arrested again, and Zhuang Zhixi only found out about it later.
It was because Jin Lai rarely came home after he came back from the juvenile detention center last time. They were at work, so they naturally didn't run into this kid much. But they didn't expect that he would be sent to prison for the second time so soon.
Zhuang Zhixi secretly thought that if he entered the palace once and twice, he might enter it three or four times in the future! This was not because he was a pessimist, but because Jin Lai had not changed much after so many experiences. It would be really difficult for him to change for the better. He walked to the other side and turned around inadvertently, and saw Director Chen, Chen Yuan's father. He didn't know when he walked to Wang Xiangxiu's side, and the two were talking.
Chen Yuan's father stood in the shadows and his expression could not be seen clearly.
But Wang Xiangxiu shed more tears. From a distance, you could see her wiping away tears.
Zhuang Zhixi: “…”
What are these two talking about?
Oh no, Director Chen, do you know that this place seems very hidden, but it is really bright from upstairs. No matter what Director Chen said, if someone saw it, it would spread gossip.
Zhuang Zhixi decisively went into the toilet on the other side and pretended not to see it.
Oh my god, he would not go to watch such a scene.
Old comrades also have to have some dignity.
Zhuang Zhixi strolled upstairs and as soon as he entered the office, he saw a row of heads at the window.
Zhuang Zhixi: “…”
He said! He leaned over and said, "Let me see."
At this time, he didn't care that the person he was picking on was Xiao Xu, with whom he had a bad relationship.
Xiao Xu is not important, what's important is watching the fun.
Xiao Xu didn't care that this was Zhuang Zhixi, whom he didn't like, and introduced him enthusiastically: "I don't know what they said. Wang Xiangxiu even raised her hand and swore. Oh my, it was really exciting."
Zhuang Zhixi: “???”
swear?
Is it so exciting?
"Leave me a place so I can take a look..."
Everyone was watching the excitement. At this time, Director Chen looked at Wang Xiangxiu and said, "Do you swear?"
Wang Xiangxiu: "I swear, even though Bai Fendou used to follow me around and try to please me, he never touched me. If I'm lying, I'll be struck by lightning!"
Since she dared to make such a vow, it meant... this must be true.
Director Chen pursed his lips and said, "Okay, I understand."
Wang Xiangxiu looked at Director Chen in confusion, not knowing what Director Chen meant by this. He came to criticize her for no reason and then asked her whether she had had an affair with Bai Fendou before. This matter...
She swore again and again. If it were someone else, she really wouldn't dare to do that.
But it was all in vain.
She really didn't.
Wang Xiangxiu rubbed her eyes and looked in the direction where Director Chen left in confusion.
Director Chen certainly didn't come to see Wang Xiangxiu because he was interested in her. Not all men are lustful, at least Director Chen is not. The reason he came to see Wang Xiangxiu was entirely for his son.
Chen Yuan went home and swore that Bai Fendou liked men and that she danced in front of him just to attract his attention. In fact, Bai Fendou liked him!
Director Chen was really upset after hearing about this matter. He also heard rumors outside that his son liked Bai Fighten.
If the same thing happens, the objects will be swapped.
Anyway, he couldn't believe this, but he had to investigate. The easiest way was to find Wang Xiangxiu. After all, Bai Fendou had been licking Wang Xiangxiu for so many years. Everyone knew that Bai Fendou had spent all his money on Wang Xiangxiu. If nothing really happened between the two of them.
Director Chen really wants to believe this... Who knows, Wang Xiangxiu might just be a smokescreen for Bai Fighting.
To be honest, Director Chen hoped that Wang Xiangxiu and Bai Fendou would get together, which would at least prove that Bai Fendou didn't like men. But!!! It turned out that they really didn't! What! Why didn't you ask Bai Fendou's wife?
He is not doing well now, what's the point in asking.
Then you must ask Wang Xiangxiu.
But the result now made Director Chen feel his head buzzing. He just felt that his mentality collapsed. Bai Fendou spent so much money on Wang Xiangxiu and licked her for so many years, but they were never together. Does that mean that Bai Fendou really doesn't like women...
His son is in danger!
Director Chen felt very uncomfortable. He returned to his office and started brainstorming.
This absolutely cannot allow his son to be involved with Bai Fendou, but Bai Fendou is already a toilet cleaner. There is no lowering his position, so what else can he do? His son works in the factory office, so he has to go to the toilet anyway.
That's always going to happen!
Transfer Bai Fendou away!
Yes, find a way to transfer Bai Fendou! If Bai Fendou went to the workshop and was assigned to a busier workshop, then Bai Fendou and Chen Yuan would have fewer chances to run into each other. Just like now, when Chen Yuan came out to the toilet, he had to be cautious, for fear that Bai Fendou would peek at him.
He always went to Wang Xiangxiu's place, but when the manure truck came, he basically went to both ends. Bai Fendou and Wang Xiangxiu had to follow, so they might meet. He tapped the table, thinking that he could use some connections.
But Chen Yuan and Bai Fendou still live in the same yard... Let the young couple come back and live here for the time being.
This house was allocated to their family anyway, so they could put it aside for now and rent it out later when no one was paying attention. But they could never move back in. When the house was allocated, he was only thinking about taking advantage and forgot that this compound was not a good place.
There are similar rumors about Zhou Qun as well.
His innocent eldest son must not be entangled by these people, let alone be led astray by them.
No! He had to take action.
Director Chen thought it over and felt in a good mood.
"Boom boom boom."
Director Chen: "Come in."
The factory office secretary came over and said, "Director, Deputy Director Zhang wants you to come over."
Director Chen: “Okay…”
He stood up and asked, "What's the matter?"
The secretary smiled awkwardly and whispered, "A relationship between a man and a woman."
Director Chen: “…???” He was so clean and never messed around, how could such a thing happen? He went to the office with a confused face. It was unknown how long it had been before Director Chen's face turned black, as if he had accidentally stepped on dog shit, accidentally fell into a stinky ditch, or accidentally… In short, his face was extremely black, and he even walked with a dark aura.
When he returned to the office, everyone heard crackling sounds in the office, as if something was being smashed.
Sister Cui and her female comrades ignored all that and went over to eavesdrop. After listening, they came back and whispered, "The office was smashed."
Zhuang Zhixi: "He has a very bad temper. Who does Chen Yuan resemble?"
As everyone was talking, they heard someone knocking on the door. Zhuang Zhixi looked up and was quite surprised. It was an acquaintance.
Hu Huihui.
Wang Xiangxiu's cousin.
Hu Huihui was also quite surprised to see Zhuang Zhixi, but then she thought, yes, Zhuang Zhixi works in the Propaganda Department. A comrade from the factory office led Hu Huihui over and said, "This is Comrade Hu from a certain committee. She is here to deliver some propaganda documents. You should accept them and do a good job of propaganda."
"OK."
Zhuang Zhixi: “Sure.”
Everyone immediately looked at the two of them curiously, with their eyes wandering.
Just when everyone was curious, the radio sounded.
In fact, Zhuang Zhixi is also one of the announcers, but he is a substitute. He will only take over when the main announcer is not there, and he mainly broadcasts various data files in the factory.
Announcers don't like to read this kind of document because it is too complicated and often difficult to pronounce.
Therefore, the basic and complex files were reported by Zhuang Zhixi, while the others were the job of this female announcer.
"I would like to interrupt with a notice. I would like to interrupt with a notice. According to reports from the public, Director Chen from the logistics department of our factory molested Comrade Wang Xiangxiu, a factory employee, in public. After investigation, it was found that this matter was completely false. This incident has a very bad impact on the parties involved. Please do not spread rumors. In addition, please pay attention to the way you work to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and hurt the workers' enthusiasm. Although it has been verified that Director Chen did not molest Comrade Wang Xiangxiu, his working methods are not good, and I would like to criticize him here. Director Chen withdraws from the election of this year's outstanding cadres. Comrades, the factory is my home, everyone loves him, the big brother of the workers..."
Balabala!
The broadcast was still going on, but everyone had already heard clearly what was being said.
Hu Huihui: “…”
She now feels more and more that what her man said seems to make some sense, and her cousin is really able to unlucky people.
Look, here's another one.
If you have anything to do with it, nothing good will come of it!
She pursed her lips, feeling lucky that they did not get involved in the Su family's incident last time, otherwise, who knows if it would bring bad luck to others.
"Comrade Hu, Comrade Hu?"
Hu Huihui: "I'm leaving first."
She also said hello to Zhuang Zhixi: "Brother Zhuang, I'm leaving first. See you later."
This "see you later" is just like "Have you eaten?", it is completely meaningless.
It's not an appointment to meet.
Zhuang Zhixi also understood, he smiled and said: "Slow down."
As soon as the man left, Sister Cui asked, "Explain yourself quickly, how come you know this girl? You can't do anything rash."
Zhuang Zhixi laughed: "What you said is not right."
"What's wrong?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "First of all, she is not a young lady, she is a married woman. Secondly, don't you see that we are just being polite? I am not familiar with her, she used to live in our compound."
"Your compound?"
Zhuang Zhixi's expression became a little more subtle, and he said, "Wang Xiangxiu's cousin."
“Fuck!”
"Oh my god."
“This, this…”
Everyone was shocked. Wang Xiangxiu and Hu Huihui didn't look alike at all.
Moreover, Hu Huihui seems to be in good condition, but Wang Xiangxiu is not.
"How is their relationship as cousins?"
"This Hu Huihui is..."
Everyone is talking at once.
Zhuang Zhixi: "That's enough. Stop talking about her. Comrade Hu Huihui is Director Zheng's wife."
“Fuck!”
Everyone exclaimed in shock again.
If it were someone else, they might not know Director Zheng, but they basically all knew him. Their publicity department sometimes had to do some publicity in the factory. A certain committee would provide some materials.
So, I may not necessarily know him, but I definitely know who he is.
"That man must be around 40 years old. Hu Huihui looks so young."
"Old man, young wife..."
"You can be a leader too!"
"Go! Go! Go!"
Everyone started discussing it, but they didn't know that Wang Xiangxiu was confused at this time. She looked at the factory notice in disbelief, scratched her head, and said in disbelief: "I, I, I, I was transferred back to the workshop again?"
"right."
Wang Xiangxiu: "Ah? Ah! Ah..."
She herself had never expected this. This was too, too sudden.
Today was a day of ups and downs for Wang Xiangxiu. She was crying because she felt bad for her son. But who would have thought that Director Chen would come over and scold her first, and then ask about Bai Fendou's affairs in detail.
This made Wang Xiangxiu very nervous, but since she had nothing to do with Bai Fendou, she was not that scared.
Then, the factory security department came over...
Finally, she knew why. Someone must have seen Director Chen talking to her and reported them.
Wang Xiangxiu just thought that this person was too evil. She didn't do anything.
It was okay for her to be angry, but she didn't expect...she was transferred.
"Because there are some bad rumors about you and Director Chen, although it is a misunderstanding, it is hard to guarantee that the impact will be expanded and cause a worse impact, so the factory decided to transfer you back to the workshop."
Of course, this was also because everyone could see that Wang Xiangxiu really worked hard and didn't do those empty things. She didn't have any casual relationships with men or women. That's why they decided to transfer her back.
After all, the job of sweeping toilets and removing feces is not very suitable for female comrades.
Wang Xiangxiu: “…”
She didn't expect that she would turn out to be blessed in disguise.
This is really unexpected!
Who should she thank?
Wang Xiangxiu didn't know who to thank.
"The factory will arrange for someone to take over your shift. You will be officially transferred back to the workshop next month. You were a first-class worker before, so you can still do it, right?"
“Yes, yes!”
"That's fine."
When she got off work, Wang Xiangxiu felt so weak in her steps that she just felt that she was so lucky.
Could it be that Wang Xiangxiu's luck has also turned?
Or does it mean that if she doesn't have any evil thoughts, she will actually live a good life?
She used to always think about taking shortcuts, how to work less and be lazy, how to cheat men, but no one paid attention to her. She lived a good life, but she knew best what kind of money it was.
But now she obviously doesn’t have these “extra income”, but her life is not very difficult.
She didn't even know what she was trying to achieve in her previous confusion.
Although it's only a little bit short now, she feels much more at ease.
Wang Xiangxiu happily went to the market after get off work. She had no meat coupons, so she bought some pork bones that didn't require coupons. She went home and made a tasty soup with them. Well, it was time to celebrate.
Wang Xiangxiu was extremely happy, and so was Bai Fendou, who was also transferred to the workshop. He himself had not expected such a good thing to happen. He was not new to the factory and did not have an internship period, so his salary did not drop too much.
But you have to know that if he works in a workshop and gets promoted in the future, his salary will increase.
Bai Fendou went home happily, saying, "Wife, I think you are my lucky star. You see, I used to be a toilet cleaner, but after marrying you, I got a job transfer."
"That's good." He Lan was also happy. Although she was still skinny and the wound on her face hadn't healed completely, it was no longer obvious and her smile was particularly bright. This was because someone told her that she was a lucky star.
His parents didn't say they treated her badly, but with an older brother, a younger brother, and a favored older sister, she was inevitably neglected. She was a nobody at home, and later she got married... I don't need to say more about what kind of people the Fan family is.
It was the first time that she was put at the top of someone's heart.
She said, "Well, then, why should we transfer you?"
Bai Fendou: "I don't know, maybe because I did a good job?"
He was happy: "We have better food at night."
He Lan: “Hey!”
They were all very happy. Zhuang Zhixi also talked about this when he got home. Because Zhuang Laonian and Liang Meifen both worked in the factory, everyone could discuss it. Liang Meifen: "I really didn't expect that the two of them are quite predestined. They were both transferred to the workshop. This is a good thing."
This refers to Bai Fendou and Wang Xiangxiu.
Zhuang Zhixi: "It should be Director Chen. It must be related to him."
If we talk about this, no one will understand.
"Shouldn't the Chen family hate Bai Fendou and Wang Xiangxiu? Director Chen was criticized today because of Wang Xiangxiu. But Director Chen is innocent enough."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Director Chen has a boss above him and a faction. Director Chen is Deputy Director Yu's man, so it's not surprising that Deputy Director Zhang wants to deliberately mess with him. I guess he transferred Wang Xiangxiu to another job just to disgust Director Chen."
"What about Bai Fighting?"
"Who knows? Maybe the Chen family is trying to do something? Anyway, it's not the first time that they have done good things with bad intentions."
"Well……"
No one understood it, but everyone was also shocked.
Anyway, it’s not that surprising.
Zhao Guihua: "The people in our compound are getting better and better."
"That's for sure."
"Oh, right. Let me tell you, from now on Zhaodi will no longer be called Wang Zhaodi. She will be called Wang Zizhen. Don't call her by her old name."
“That’s a good new name.”
“That was something we came up with collectively.”
Mingmei propped her chin up and said with emotion: "I think Zhaodi has really changed little by little. It feels so good to see someone become independent and strong."
Everybody laughed.
Wang Zhaodi quickly registered her marriage with Daqiang. She changed her name to Wang Zizhen and moved to the yard next door. Daqiang only had one room here, but there were also advantages as he was not oppressed by his parents-in-law.
Daqiang's mother was always paying attention to her eldest son, and somewhat neglected her younger son. He set up two tables in the yard for his wedding and only invited people who were relatively close to him. In fact, at the beginning, Daqiang's mother didn't want him to have a wedding banquet, after all, it was his second marriage.
But his wife was getting married for the first time, and the girl was quite capable, so it was not good to let her marry in without any formalities. In the end, they decided to set up two tables. Zhao Guihua, the banker, attended and gave a pair of pillowcases, which was a considerable gift.
The Zhou family had a different relationship with Wang Zizhen, so it was normal for both to attend, but Jiang Lu was in confinement, so it was definitely inconvenient, so Aunt Zhou was alone. Aunt Zhou really treated Wang Zizhen as her own and gave her a thermos. This thing is precious.
A thermos now costs ten or eight yuan.
The one that Auntie Zhou bought, with red peony flowers on it, cost about 12 yuan. This is not a small amount.
You have to know that Bai Fendou’s salary for cleaning toilets is only 25 yuan, which is equivalent to half a month’s salary for a person.
Of course, other people also gave gifts. Aunt Wang gave a washbasin, and Aunt Sui gave an oilcloth.
They had often gone up the mountain together last fall, so they were quite familiar with each other, but not that close. It was nice to give them a piece of oilcloth. Zhao Guihua didn't realize what oilcloth was at first, but then she realized it.
This is the characteristic of this era.
Grain and oil are in short supply these days, especially oil.
Many families use as little oil as possible and are reluctant to use it. They just put a piece of gauze in the little oil they have, and then gently wipe the bottom of the pot with the gauze every time they cook. This is considered to be stained with oil.
This piece of gauze soaked in oil is called oilcloth.
Many people also use this as a gift. A piece of oilcloth can be used for at least ten days or half a month. If you save it a little, it can be used for more than half a month. So it is a good gift. Wang Zizhen treasured it and kept it.
She couldn't read, but she had her own way of recording and kept accounts very carefully.
On the wedding night, Daqiang looked at her little notebook and saw the little man drawn on it. He burst out laughing and said, "Who is this?"
Wang Zizhen: "This is Aunt Wang. Can't you see? I drew her very big. Aunt Wang is tall, so she represents her. The circle next to her represents a basin. She gave me a basin."
She can't read, but she can draw simple pictures and recognize them. Daqiang looked at his wife and was very happy: "You are so smart."
Wang Zizhen blushed in embarrassment and said, "No way."
She quickly added, "There are only two of us at home, and you are also eating at work, so I usually go to the yard next door. If you come back and don't see me, go next door and call me."
Daqiang: "Okay."
He doesn't care about such trivial matters.
Wang Zizhen: "Sister Jiang Lu gave me 10 yuan a month to help with cooking, washing diapers and cleaning the house; Aunt Zhao also gave me 10 yuan to do these things, and I accepted them. This way I can earn 20 yuan a month."
Daqiang was stunned. He actually knew that it would be difficult for his wife to find a job, but he didn't expect that he would arrange this for her. "This..." After a long while, he said, "Can you handle it?"
Wang Zizhen: "Of course, otherwise how would I dare to take it all? Don't worry, I did more than this when I was at my parents' house. I'm very capable, and my job doesn't last long. I can't do it if I get pregnant. And even if I'm not in a hurry to have a baby, they won't need me when their baby is older. So now, while I can still do it, I'll do more. Don't worry, I won't be careless just because I'm doing work for two families. They treat me well, so I can't mess around."
Daqiang immediately said: "Then I will also share the work at our house."
Wang Zizhen looked at Daqiang and felt that this man was completely different from her father. They were both men, and her father looked very honest, but he did nothing at home. But he wanted to eat the best because he was a man.
But Daqiang, although he looks like a very burly and ferocious man, is actually a very good-tempered, kind and considerate person.
Wang Zizhen laughed and said, "Okay!" without refusing.
She said seriously: "Let's live a good life together."
Daqiang: “Okay!”
Wang Zizhen really did what she said. She watched her husband go out early in the morning, locked the door and went to the next yard. Mingmei had already gone to work, and she was no problem with the work of the two families. It seemed that she had endless energy.
Very motivated.
In just half a morning, she washed and hung up all the diapers that had been stored overnight. She was busy as a top, but she was very happy. Zhao Guihua put on her two little ones' cotton-padded jackets and put them in the stroller and pushed them out.
The stroller made by his family is different from other people's strollers. It can hold two children, so it is a double stroller.
Zhao Guihua put a small blanket on the baby, pushed the baby out, and said, "Zizhen, you are really capable."
Wang Zizhen smiled and said, "That's nothing. I did it easily."
She stepped forward, lowered her head, teased the baby, and said, "Baby, do you still recognize me? I am Aunt Zizhen."
The two children smiled at her without teeth, and the little ones shook their little butts, wanting to be hugged. Wang Zizhen was about to reach out, but Zhao Guihua stopped her: "Don't hug him. If you hug him all the time, he will know and won't be able to behave well in the future."
Wang Zizhen: “Is that so?”
Zhao Guihua: "Of course."
She said: "When raising children, you can't always do what they want."
He Lan came out of the house to go to the bathroom. She didn't dare leave the child alone in the room, so she carried the child on her back. When she saw that everyone was there, she walked along the wall nervously.
Zhao Guihua: “…”
She took the initiative to say: "He Lan, your name is He Lan, right?"
He Lan stopped and hummed softly. She knew Zhao Guihua was a good person, so she said softly, "Aunt Zhao, what's wrong?"
Zhao Guihua: "Don't always stay in the house with your child. Come sit in the yard when you have nothing to do. Now that the weather is a little warmer, everyone is outside. It's good to chat with them. Besides, babies like to go out."
He Lan hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
She carried the child to go to the toilet, and Wang Zizhen whispered, "She is even more nervous than when I first came."
Zhao Guihua hummed and said, "She met the wrong person and is afraid of being bullied, but I think she will get better slowly."
Wang Zizhen has also seen people with this kind of personality. She said: "There are also people like this in our village."
She gossiped and said, "There was an older sister in our village who was beaten by her in-laws because she didn't give birth to a son. The beating was very severe, and she had always been submissive, but one day she suddenly exploded. It seemed that her mother-in-law scalded her daughter, and she went crazy at the time. Her daughter was originally named Zhaodi... There are at least eight out of ten people named Zhaodi in our village. Her daughter was originally named Zhaodi, and she went crazy on the spot and changed her daughter's name to Juedi."
Zhao Guihua: “Puff!”
She sighed: "What's the point of just changing the name?"
"She even beat her mother-in-law and husband, and stabbed them with kitchen knives. From then on, her life at home became better. I admired her so much at that time. But my mother looked down on her the most, saying that people like her would have no one to carry the banner after their death. She also told us not to learn from her."
Based on Wang Zizhen's brief introduction, Zhao Guihua could already outline what kind of person his mother was.
At this time He Lan also came back from the bathroom. She went forward to look at the twins. Her child was only one day different from the twins, but people would believe it if you said they were two months different. His one was small and skinny, while the other two little ones had grown up to be plump and white.
The little one swung his soft little arms and played by himself. He was so well behaved.
She whispered, "Baby's mom went to work?"
Zhao Guihua: "Yes, Mingmei's vacation is over."
Maybe because all the babies in the yard were there, Li Fang also came out with her child. When all the children were compared, Li Fang's Zhenzhen came out on top. She was small to begin with, but she ate a lot, so she grew up to be very big.
Zhao Guihua: "My twins are already very white and plump, and yours is even bigger."
Li Fang: "She eats a lot."
She reached out and teased Xiao Qingqing, saying, "What's your baby's name?"
He Lan: "My nickname is Xiaobao, and my real name is Bai Qingqing."
"Xiao Qingqing."
The baby lay weakly in her mother's arms, not understanding anything at all, but seemed to sense the voices outside and pouted gently. Li Fang smiled, "What a soft little girl."
He Lan: "My baby was born prematurely and is weak."
"Then you have to take good care of it."
"I know."
Zhao Guihua looked at these children and suddenly laughed. She said, "These children are so little behind. I can rest assured when they go to school. They will go together as a group."
Everyone nodded: "That's right."
Zhao Guihua: "These kids are really happy. When my kid was little..."
Zhao Guihua quickly led the topic.
The scene also became lively.
Li Fang: "Zizhen, you are married now. When are you going to have a baby? Do you want to have it right away or wait?"
Wang Zizhen: "We can let nature take its course. Any time is fine. It's also good if it's early. If it's early, I'll be young and the child will be older. I won't have to worry about the child at my age. I won't have to worry about it then. But it's also OK if it's later. I didn't have a good life at my parents' home before, so I have some deficits. I can take care of the child a little bit, and the baby will be healthy when it's born."
"You can do whatever you want."
"You've got everything to say."
Wang Zizhen nodded: "Hey, yes, I want to have two or three children."
She had thought it through. She had always hoped to have a happy family, so she wanted to raise more children. But more was not an option. If she couldn't take care of them, she would definitely ignore them. She didn't want that.
"I planned it all out very well," she said.
Zhao Guihua laughed: "This kind of thing is not planned, plans can't change as fast as things."
Wang Zizhen scratched his head shyly and said, "That's right."
Although she was married, she was somewhat embarrassed about such a topic, so she simply changed the subject.
Zizhen: "Wild vegetables are very good and fresh this season. I have finished all my work this morning and plan to go dig wild vegetables in the afternoon. Who of you will go?"
Everyone is tied up by the children, where can they go?
Everyone looked at Wang Zizhen with melancholy and a little resentment.
You don't have children, so you don't know the pain of raising a child! She smiled and said, "Then I'll share it with you when I get back."
“No, no.”
“Yes…”
Their compound is so harmonious and lively...
