Chapter 23 There is a confused person in the dormitory
She asked the salesperson to pack a pound of sugar into two portions. Although the salesperson was not very happy, Jiang Haitang spoke politely, so the salesperson used an extra piece of hemp paper to wrap it.
The two returned to the factory with bags, and Liu Hongmei sent Jiang Haitang back to the dormitory.
When the girls in the dormitory saw Liu Hongmei and her friends coming in, they hurriedly stood up and greeted them.
"This is Comrade Jiang Haitang. He will be living with you guys from now on. You are all veteran employees of the factory, so you should help the new comrades."
"Director Liu, don't worry, we will help Comrade Jiang Haitang."
A tall girl with two pigtails said with a smile.
"We will also take the initiative to help Jiang Haitang."
Hearing the satisfactory answer, Liu Hongmei felt relieved. She looked up at the upper bunk near the door.
"Whose are these? Pack them up quickly."
"Director Liu, the dormitory is so small and there is no place to clean." A skinny girl said shyly.
"Wei Xiaohong, everyone else can let go, but you can't? If you don't want to live here, then work hard and move to a better dormitory."
Jiang Haitang could feel that Liu Hongmei didn't like this girl named Wei Xiaohong.
She didn't like Wei Xiaohong very much at first sight. This girl had wild eyes and was very calculating.
Moreover, she and Wei Xiaohong shared the upper and lower bunk beds!
It seems that collective life may not always be smooth sailing.
Unfortunately, ordinary employees in the factory can only live in collective dormitories, and only senior technicians and leaders are eligible to apply for single dormitories.
After being cleaned up by Liu Hongmei, although Wei Xiaohong was not satisfied, she still grumbled and packed up the sundries piled on the upper bunk and stuffed them under the bed.
"Haitang, make your own bed. I'm going back first. If anyone bullies you, come find me."
"Don't forget to come to my house tonight."
"I understand, Director Liu. I'll be there after dinner."
Liu Hongmei said this to the other people in the dormitory because she was afraid that someone in the dormitory would bully her in order to curry favor with the Liang family.
While Jiang Haitang was seeing Director Liu off, Liu Hongmei did not forget to give him some more instructions.
"Don't be too honest in the future. Protect yourself. If someone bullies you, just confront them..."
It feels so good to be cared for and looked after.
Listening to Liu Hongmei's earnest teachings, Jiang Haitang felt like she had become a child.
After seeing Liu Hongmei off, Jiang Haitang returned to the dormitory.
"Oh my, it's different when you have a backer. Director Liu sent me here personally. It's so glorious!" Wei Xiaohong said sarcastically with her arms crossed.
"It's really glorious. Even if you're jealous, it's useless because I will be even more glorious in the future!"
Jiang Haitang confronted him directly without any hesitation.
Seeing that Jiang Haitang was so bold and confrontational upon arrival, the other girls knew that she was someone who could not bear to be bullied, and they did not dare to look down on her.
"Haitang, my name is Jin Qiaoyun. I'm the oldest in our dormitory. If you have any questions in the future, just ask me."
The tall girl took the initiative to speak to ease the atmosphere.
"Let me introduce you to my roommates. You already know Wei Xiaohong. This is Gu Shaofeng, this is Tang Ke, and this is Fei Xinzhu. The five of us all work in the textile workshop."
"Haitang, you have a different job than us, and your working hours are different. We work in three shifts, so sometimes it will disturb your rest. Please don't mind."
Jin Qiaoyun held Jiang Haitang's hand, looking like a good sister, but Jiang Haitang understood the meaning behind her words. She was indeed a person with some speaking skills.
Jiang Haitang smiled back and said, "That's natural. We all live together so we have to tolerate each other. I work in the cafeteria and get up early in the morning. I'll try to be quiet so as not to disturb you."
"We also keep our voices down during the night shift."
"Hmph, you're just a country bumpkin, and you really think you're a rich lady?" Wei Xiaohong rolled her eyes.
"So, Comrade Wei Xiaohong is a rich young lady from the city. My apologies. I'll have to explain this to Director Liu when I get back to his house. After all, it's quite a condescension for a rich young lady to come work in our factory!"
Jiang Haitang spoke with a smile, but these words made Wei Xiaohong sweat on her forehead.
A rich lady?
If she was labeled as a rich girl, her life would be ruined.
She is lazy, but not stupid.
"You want to harm me? How can you be so vicious?" Wei Xiaohong looked at Jiang Haitang with eyes that seemed like she wanted to eat her.
"Oh, you're overthinking it. I'm from the countryside and have no experience, so I thought that's what you meant." Jiang Haitang said insincerely: "If you don't mean that, then what do you mean?"
"I won't talk to someone like you who steals other people's husbands. It's shameful!"
After Wei Xiaohong finished speaking, she was about to sit back on the bed, but before she turned around, she was slapped.
The crisp sound of the slap shocked the other people in the dormitory.
"Jiang Haitang, I'm a regular employee of the factory, and you're just a temporary worker. How dare you hit me?"
Wei Xiaohong rushed over and was about to fight with Jiang Haitang.
Jiang Haitang is used to doing farm work and is much stronger than her.
After dodging, he grabbed Wei Xiaohong by the collar and pulled her forward.
"You deserve a spanking if you keep talking! If you keep talking, I'll slap you."
Jiang Haitang raised his iron-like palm and stared at Wei Xiaohong, as if the slap was about to fall in the next moment.
Wei Xiaohong's heart skipped a beat, and she felt an inexplicable surge of fear.
How could this woman be so terrifying? Her eyes seemed to be able to spit fire.
But Wei Xiaohong was used to being arrogant, and this time he had someone backing him up, so he didn't want to lose in momentum and forced a sneer.
"Why, you can do it and others can't say anything?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Haitang let go of Wei Xiaohong, and with a crisp "pa" sound, a slap landed heavily on the other side of Wei Xiaohong's face.
After being slapped twice in a row and looking at Jiang Haitang's intimidating aura, Wei Xiaohong subconsciously stepped back.
"You...if you hit me again, I'll find the factory director!" Wei Xiaohong shouted harshly, her voice trembling slightly.
"Apologize!"
Jiang Haitang demanded forcefully.
"You hit me, why should I apologize?"
"My marriage to Li Shengli was investigated and handled by the factory. You lied with your eyes open and slandered me. Shouldn't you hit me? Let me guess, who instructed you to do that?"
Wei Xiaohong retreated again and again, and Jiang Haitang pressed forward step by step.
"No, no one instructed me to do that. Don't talk nonsense."
"Whether it's nonsense or not, you know it in your heart. Wei Xiaohong, since you won't tell me who ordered you to do so, from now on, whenever I hear someone say behind my back that I'm stealing someone else's man, I'll treat it as you spreading rumors."
Wei Xiaohong didn't want to take such a big blame, but she couldn't push the person behind the scenes out, so she was speechless for a moment.
The other people in the dormitory came out to persuade them after seeing enough.
"Haitang, Wei Xiaohong just said it casually. She's just like that. Don't take it to heart."
Jin Qiaoyun pulled Jiang Haitang's arm and tried to persuade her half-heartedly.
Is there anything else that Jiang Haitang doesn’t understand?
It's obvious that he has no intention of persuading me and is just putting on a show.
Either Wei Xiaohong offended many people in her daily life, or these people were not easy to deal with.
But no matter what the situation is, Jiang Haitang is not afraid.
As long as they don't target her, it's up to them.
Jiang Haitang left Wei Xiaohong, who was covering her face and wailing, and threw all her things on the bed and began to make the bed.
