Chapter 43 My Thoughts on Jiang Haitang
Jiang Haitang stayed in the hospital for two days longer than Lu Liangchen. When she was discharged, her external injuries had almost healed, but she still coughed from time to time. The doctor prescribed some medicine for her.
Although she was discharged from the hospital, the factory decided to let Jiang Haitang rest for a few more days without having to go to work.
Jiang Haitang felt bored staying in the dormitory, so she came to find Liu Hongmei.
Liu Hongmei has already helped Jiang Haitang glue the shoe uppers together.
"These two pairs for you are made of black worsted, this pair is made of black velvet, and Little Peach's two pairs are also made of red velvet. Do you think they are beautiful?"
"Director Liu, thank you so much. You've been helping me look after the children these days and gluing the uppers of my shoes. I'll give this can of food to the children to try."
When Jiang Haitang said this, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
But to Liu Hongmei, it had a different meaning.
Xiao Taozi is from Director Lu's family and has nothing to do with Jiang Haitang, but Jiang Haitang always seems to think that Xiao Taozi is also her child.
"You're a hero now, so if I don't help the hero, who will I help? Besides, Xiao Taozi is a very well-behaved child. Ever since she found out you were injured fighting the fire and were in the hospital, she hasn't cried or made a fuss and has been very well behaved. I don't have to worry about it."
Liu Hongmei didn't dare to say that when it got dark, the child would sit at the door with a small stool and wait until it was time to go to bed before returning to his room. It was so pitiful.
"I've packed up the other materials for you. Xiaoxia's brother is getting married and was anxious to make clothes, so he didn't wait for you."
"Yes, Xiao Xia told me."
She actually thought that the cloths might have been lost long ago. After all, in that situation, who would care about a few pieces of cloth?
Liu Hongmei took out a package and gave it to Jiang Haitang.
"Are you planning to use these fabrics to make clothes for Director Lu?"
She looked at the color of the material, a large piece of iron-gray material, suitable for making men's clothing.
Jiang Haitang touched it and found the material was very thick, so it must be good stuff.
"Let me choose first. I have enough clothes to wear now." Jiang Haitang was actually very conflicted.
Liu Hongmei smiled faintly and said, "The fabrics reserved for you for autumn clothes are gray and pink with flowers. Xiaoxia and I have chosen two pieces of blue with flowers."
She was actually a little embarrassed, but she had both boys and girls in her family, and any blue flowery outfit could wear it.
Xiaoxia had a blue piece of clothing with flowers at home, which could be used to make two sets of autumn clothes.
"I can do it. The pink one is just right for Xiao Taozi." Jiang Haitang smiled.
She is not big, and Xiao Taozi is also small. A piece of cloth should be enough for the two of them to make autumn clothes.
"Did Director Lu give you the ticket?"
Jiang Haitang had just started working and had only one ticket in her hand, but she bought three pieces of cloth.
"It's Director Lu. He said he doesn't need it."
Liu Hongmei showed an astonished expression and knew that the extra ticket in the girl's hand belonged to Director Lu.
Director Lu's feelings for Haitang are almost obvious on his face.
Knowing that Haitang had rushed into the fire, Director Lu ignored everything and rushed in directly.
A few months ago, Director Lu was parachuted into the factory as deputy director, and many people were interested in him.
Later, a girl from the factory office pretended to sprain her ankle and stuck to him. She fell down and did not even get a sidelong glance from Director Lu. She was even transferred out of the factory office. No one had such an idea anymore.
Everyone was wondering what kind of girl would win over the unromantic Director Lu. Who knew it would be the girl in front of them?
"By the way, Director Liu, you subsidized the shoe tops. I'll give it to you in cash."
Jiang Haitang had no idea what Liu Hongmei was thinking, and she took out the money anyway.
"Just give me two feet of cloth coupons for one dollar. I'll take advantage of you. I bought this cloth with an internal coupon, and you have a general cloth coupon."
"You're asking me for an internal ticket, but I don't have one."
…
Jiang Haitang rested for another two days before going to work.
During the break, I still sat in front of the window and read.
There are only about ten days left before the recruitment exam, so she has to concentrate on studying.
Kang Xiaoxia saw Jiang Haitang concentrating on reading, and couldn't help but sigh that these days, even in the hospital, Jiang Haitang was reading.
"Uncle Zhang, Haitang is studying so hard, will she be able to pass the exam?" Kang Xiaoxia asked.
"Of course he can. He's such a good kid, capable and obedient. Now he's an advanced person in our factory. I'm afraid the canteen won't be able to keep him."
There was regret in Zhang Shangwen's tone, but a smile on his face.
When Jiang Haitang heard the sound, she knew it was time for lunch and immediately put down her book and came over.
While washing rice, she said, "Xiao Xia, why don't you also study for the exam?"
Although the recruitment information has been released, registration has not yet started, so there is still time to prepare now.
Jiang Haitang felt that the teenage girl had to find a better way out and could not spend her whole life in the cafeteria.
"I'm afraid I won't pass the exam. It will be so embarrassing." Kang Xiaoxia said hesitantly.
"There are too many people and too little food, so it's normal to fail the exam. If you fail, the worst that can happen is that you have to go back to the cafeteria to work, which won't affect anything."
Zhang Shangwen nodded: "Yes, Xiaoxia, although working in the cafeteria is not bad, it is not as respectable as working in the factory office."
After being persuaded by the two people, Kang Xiaoxia was moved.
"Shall we go together when we sign up?"
"Humph, you think you can become a cadre in the factory office just by knowing two words? I advise you, don't dream on!"
Zhao Xiufang was probably used to being sarcastic, so she spoke without thinking.
"What's the matter? Did you eat shit when you went out? Your mouth stinks." Zhang Shangwen cursed.
Zhao Xiufang didn't dare to get angry with Zhang Shangwen and could only glare at Jiang Haitang with resentment.
"It's all your fault, you little bitch! I got scolded again."
"Why are you glaring at Haitang? She's a fire hero, but who are you? There was a fire that day, and instead of putting it out, you tried to steal the fabric. It was so embarrassing."
"If it weren't for the brave and resourceful Jiang Haitang in our cafeteria, I would be too embarrassed to face anyone."
It turned out that while everyone was out putting out the fire that day, Zhao Xiufang had evil intentions and planned to steal fabric, but she was caught in the act by someone watching.
After the notice came down, Zhang Shangwen became more and more displeased with Zhao Xiufang these days, and scolded her three, four, five or six times every day.
"You just favor her."
"I'm giving you face, right? Zhao Xiufang, believe it or not, I will beat you up?" Zhang Shangwen was about to greet her with a rolling pin in his hand.
Zhao Xiufang immediately became timid and became as silent as a quail.
"Zhao Xiufang, Xiao Jiang suffered a work-related injury while trying to save collective property. If you make her angry, you can't stay in this cafeteria." Zhang Shangwen warned again.
Because her injury had not yet fully healed, Zhang Shangwen assigned Jiang Haitang light work and asked her to go home early at night.
Jiang Haitang didn't want to go back to the dormitory, so she went to the staff quarters.
Lu Liangchen has already taken Xiao Taozi home.
The father and daughter were busy working in the fields.
The little guy was very well-behaved. He pinched the seeds with his soft little hands and placed them one by one in the small holes poked by Lu Liangchen.
Seeing Jiang Haitang, Xiao Taozi immediately ran out from the field and threw herself into Jiang Haitang's arms.
"Mom, mom, Xiao Taozi misses you so much!"
