Chapter 352: It’s Possible That You Can’t Even Be a Temporary Worker
Song Ying was also given green military cloth in lieu of salary.
She wants to make pants and a jacket for Dong-chul.
Dongzhe almost cried and quickly called Huang Ling:
"Auntie! Help! My mom wants to make me pants with the cloth the factory gave her! I don't want it! I don't want it!"
Before Huang Ling could say anything, she heard Song Ying's scolding from the microphone:
"Tell me, are you heartless? I made pants for you and you picked them out, right?"
"I don't want it! I want to wear the pants my aunt made for me! I don't want to wear the same pants as everyone else! Forget about the sheets! I don't want pants! I don't want a coat either! I want to wear the jacket my aunt made for me! A cool jacket!"
"Look, I've beaten you until you look like a handsome guy..." Song Ying raised her slippers.
Huang Ling could imagine the situation on the other end of the phone, so she said, "Dongzhe, let your mother answer the phone."
"Okay!" Dongzhe handed the phone over with both hands. "My aunt, let you take it!"
Song Ying threw her slippers on the ground, put them on, and picked up the microphone:
"I'm so angry, why can't I wear these pants?"
Huang Ling laughed on the other end:
"Forget it! Now all the men, women, young and old in the factory are wearing clothes made of that cloth. Dongzhe won't be able to find him even if he searches for him in the crowd. There are also many children of the cotton mill in No. 1 Middle School. When they stand on the playground, everyone can identify them by their pants."
Song Ying also laughed after hearing what Huang Ling said.
"What should I do with this cloth? A four-piece suit won't take that much!" Song Ying was very worried.
She was not short of money. She received a salary from each of the two forestry factories, which was more than enough to support her family.
"Just take it from the factory and make it into four-piece suits for the girls and boys in the single dormitory. They are not employees of the cotton mill, so they will not be given this cloth." Huang Ling gave a solution.
"Thank goodness, you're smart. I never thought of that! This cloth doesn't have any other advantages, but it's durable and stain-resistant. It's perfect for those boys."
"You ask Dongzhe to drag it here, and I'll buy it from you at the market price."
"What are you talking about? Can I take your money? I'm just worried that I have nowhere to spend it. Seeing them making clothes and pants, I also thought of making two sets for Dongzhe and Wufeng." Song Ying hurriedly refused the request for money.
"Okay then, I'll send it next month. Why don't you bring it here?"
After they hung up the phone, Dongzhe came over and said:
"Comrade Song Ying, if you have any questions in the future, can you please ask Aunt Huang first and then make a decision? Don't worry about me, okay?"
Song Ying started to take off her slippers and Dongzhe ran away.
"Don't run!"
"Put on your shoes, they'll hurt your feet!"
"If you don't run, I'll wear it!"
"I won't run away if you put it on!"
Grandpa Li and Aunt Li sat in the store and watched the mother and son playing in the alley.
Aunt Li laughed: "Grandpa, this is better than TV, right?"
Grandpa Li nodded: "Haha, right, right."
When Zhang Min came home from get off work, she saw a mother and her son playing in the alley, so she walked along the wall.
Seeing her come back, Song Ying and Dong Zhe stopped.
"Aunt Song." Zhang Min greeted her with a tired look on her face.
"Xiao Min is back." Song Ying responded symbolically.
Zhang Min didn't even have the strength to speak, so she went home.
Most of the employees in the branch factory are new and they are not good at their job and make mistakes frequently, which causes the workshop director and factory leaders to scold them every day.
Everyone was already tired and now they had to get scolded, so they complained a lot.
Zhang Min was so tired every day that she fell asleep as soon as she got home.
Then, Wu Jianguo returned home.
When he entered the house, he saw that Zhang Min had returned but Zhang A'mei was not there, so he left the house and squatted in the corner smoking, his eyes staring at the gate.
Not long after, Zhang A'mei came back.
Wu Jianguo stood up immediately, his eyes full of anticipation.
"How is it?" he asked.
Zhang A-mei took a long time to dig out thirty yuan from her pocket.
Wu Jianguo's eyes were full of anger.
"I told him that I wanted 300 yuan, but because I went there suddenly, he didn't have it prepared. He said he would notify me when it was ready to pick it up," Zhang A'mei explained.
"Go again tomorrow. If you don't give me money, you can keep going." Wu Jianguo snatched the thirty yuan and said coldly.
"Go if you want to! Don't give me the cold shoulder here!" Seeing his attitude, Zhang A'mei became even more angry.
"Then why should I praise you for a good job? I spent two hundred on gifts and things, and three hundred on smashing the store. Finally, you forced Zhang Min to work in the branch factory. You did a good job! Right!" Wu Jianguo said gritting his teeth.
"You!" Zhang A'mei knew she was in the wrong. She was so angry that she sat down on the ground and started crying.
Zhang Min came out of the room with a look of annoyance on her face:
"Blame me, it's all my fault! It's my fault that I don't have good grades like Wu Shanshan, that I can't go to college and make a lot of money, it's my fault that I don't have the ability to work in a factory, it's my fault that I have to work in a barber shop, it's all my fault, okay! Can you please go cook dinner now? I'm starving!"
Just as Zhang A-mei was about to speak, Wang Yong's wife from next door poured a basin of water in front of the Wu family's yard:
"You cry every day, every day, I'm so fed up! You've been making trouble day and night, and your daughter and son have run away, and all your money has been lost. It's all your fault! It's such bad luck to be neighbors with you! All my luck has been ruined by your crying!"
Zhang A-mei stood up and was about to retort, but Wu Jianguo grabbed her and dragged her into the house:
"Their family has connections in the factory, so don't offend them! How many people in this alley do you want to offend? You have to make them unite and kick us out, right?"
Zhang Min also rushed out and said:
"Mom! Mom! Please! Stop it! Stop it! Can you be a little more normal and stop acting like a psychopath? I'm going to get married in the future! Who would dare to marry me if they saw the state of our family?"
You drove Wu Shanshan and Wu Jun away. Do you know how others curse you behind your back? I tell you, everyone in the branch knows about it. They point fingers at me every day, and you still make a fuss! Do you want me to die at home?
When people choose a wife, they don't just look at her looks; they also consider her family background! Poverty isn't a problem, but who would dare marry someone with a mental illness?
Zhang A-mei stared at the two of them in shock. "Why is it all my fault? Why blame me, Zhang Min? Do you have any conscience when you say that? I did everything for you!"
Zhang Min shook her head. "Mom, you're doing this for yourself, not for me! I'm going to work as a temporary worker at the branch factory as you asked. Please be normal and let our family live a normal life."
"I'm not normal Zhang Min, anyone can blame me, but you can't!"
"I don't blame you, who else should I blame? I could have been an accountant! An accountant! I'm telling you, a lot of people have said that I'm not sure if I'll ever get a shift in the future. I'm going to be a temporary worker for the rest of my life!"
"Oh, that's possible. There are no more temporary workers. Today, the branch manager said that this batch of people is not good enough, so we should just give up and hire some temporary workers who were laid off from the main factory. They are all experienced and can be paid higher wages."
As she spoke, Zhang Min began to cry.
I'm exhausted and might not even be able to stay. I'm not even qualified to be a temporary worker.
Hearing this, Zhang A-mei was shocked.
It's all over.
Zhang A'mei had already been offended by her brother, and was scolded by the two of them when she came back. Now she received such news. She felt a lump in her chest, felt dizzy, and fell to the ground.
When she woke up, she found herself lying in bed, not in the hospital.
Wu Jianguo and Zhang Min did not send her to the hospital.
And there was a burning pain in his philtrum.
