Chapter 58 Aren't you two ashamed, doing this in front of others?
Although the factory hasn't been built yet, Liu Nian wants to secure the female workers first, train them for a period of time in advance, and then they can start working directly.
These past few days, Liu Nian's doorstep has been practically worn down by visitors, all trying to get in through connections.
Carrying bottles of wine and snacks, Aunt Wang entered with a broad smile, "Nian'er, I always said you were capable, and sure enough, you're going to make something of yourself!"
Liu Nian was busy counting the number of people. Exhausted from the day, she forced herself to sit in a chair and watched as this Aunt Wang tried to establish a connection with her.
“Let me tell you, I even held you when you were little! You’ve always been smart!” Wang Ma pulled Ya Dan over from behind her. “My daughter is the same age as you! Do you think you could find her a job at your factory, something simple and not too tiring.”
Liu Nian rubbed her temples wearily. Her back ached so much she could barely straighten up, and her complexion was naturally not good. She asked in return, "I need someone here who can read. Your daughter hasn't been to school, has she?"
"Oh, could you make an exception for this?" Wang Ma placed the snacks and wine on Liu Nian's table, then winked and said, "It's your factory, isn't it your decision-maker?"
"My back hurts so much," Liu Nian straightened up in discomfort and said impatiently to Wang Ma, "Take your things away—"
Just as she was about to say something, a pair of large hands suddenly pressed on her waist, kneading the sore spots forcefully.
Liu Nian looked up in surprise. Su Xu was kneeling beside her with his head down, his brows furrowed and his expression cold.
The soreness was massaged away, and I immediately felt less uncomfortable.
With a stern face, Su Xu started massaging her right there in front of outsiders, completely disregarding their presence.
This caused Wang Ma, who was present, to let out a strange cry of "Oh dear!" and exclaimed, "What are you doing? Aren't you ashamed? Why are you doing this in front of us outsiders?"
As she spoke, she quickly covered Ya Dan's eyes. Her child was still a virgin, and she didn't want to offend her eyes.
People are reserved these days; they don't even dare to hold hands in public. How come this young couple doesn't know what shame is?
Su Xu gently turned his head, his gaze like a cold knife, looking at Wang Ma with a chilling look, "You were in my house, watching me and my wife being intimate, shouldn't you be the one ashamed?"
These words made Wang Ma close her mouth again, staring blankly at Liu Nian.
"Also, please don't come to my house anymore. My wife is pregnant and going through a lot, so please don't bother her."
Su Xu stood up, picked up the things Wang Ma had placed on the table with annoyance, handed them over, and said, "There are conditions and screening standards for hiring. We'll handle everything officially!"
"I'm talking to Nian'er, why are you interrupting?" Wang Ma reluctantly tried to get in front of Liu Nian, but Su Xu grabbed her by the collar and dragged her out the door.
With powerful arms, veins bulged and muscles were taut. With a single lift, he threw Wang Ma directly onto the mound of dirt by the door.
"Ouch, ouch! Let me go! You good-for-nothing!" Wang Ma staggered, clutching the things in her hands, and turned her head to curse, "Do you have any right to speak in this house? Let me go, I'm Liu Nian's relative!"
Liu Nian's face immediately turned frosty. She couldn't hold back any longer and yelled at Wang Ma, "Su Xu is my man! The backbone of my family! No one can say a bad word about him! Who do you think you are? A distant relative you can't even be related to! Get the hell out of here!"
The young woman blushed with anger, put her hands on her hips, and roared at the onlookers again, "Su Xu is the head of my family! Open your dog eyes and take a look!"
Su Xu is a good-for-nothing? How could that be? Liu Nian's chest heaved, her eyes bloodshot, she felt wronged for her man.
The onlookers exchanged glances, genuinely mocking Su Xu for letting a woman run the household. Liu Nian was enjoying immense power and prestige; any other man would have been unable to bear it.
When they saw the proud, smug smile on Su Xu's face, they were all stunned.
Su Xu's gaze was as deep as the sea, filled with his boundless affection. A smile played on his lips, and his expression was one of utter—joy.
What's there to be happy about? The crowd didn't understand either.
But Su Xu was just happy. The way his woman protected him was so powerful! It was a sign of her love for him! He was happy!
Su Xu immediately felt delighted and chuckled foolishly.
"Alright, honey, don't be angry." Su Xu quickly took the little woman's hand and gently rubbed it. "I don't mind."
Liu Nian took a breath and said to everyone again, "No one is allowed to try to get in through connections! Anyone who wants to work in the factory should apply, and only those who pass the review will be hired. Anyone who doesn't meet the requirements will not be hired!"
That one sentence cut off the idea of those who wanted to use connections.
