Remember in one second [67♂, thank you everyone for your support. Su Yu held her hand, tears streaming down her face, "My parents passed away early. Back then, the factory gave me a bowl of rice to eat, so I could support my younger siblings. I should have worked like a slave for the factory and repaid the organization properly. But these years... things at home have been so difficult. I wish I could split myself in two. All these years, I've felt guilty for not dedicating myself entirely to the factory and the organization. Officer Yan, I've decided that from now on, I will align myself with the organization, I will work wholeheartedly for our factory, weave more cloth, help the factory increase production, and let people all over the country wear good clothes."
Yan Fang looked at Su Yu with teary eyes.
Comrade Su Yu has had it so tough. All these years, she's supported her family and still had to contribute to the factory. Life is so difficult, yet she maintains such a positive outlook. Even lying in her hospital bed, she's thinking about her future work.
What a fine worker!
This is an active member of our workforce; he is someone who deserves our help.
"Comrade Su Yu, the union will help you. If you encounter any difficulties at work in the future, just come to our union, and we will definitely help you solve the problem."
"Really?" Su Yu asked, moved.
Yan Fang felt that Su Yu's eyes at this moment were like those of someone who had just broken free of a straw, and a strange sense of responsibility welled up in her heart.
As a union official, my job is to solve the difficulties faced by the factory workers.
“Of course it’s true!” she said firmly. “If you ever have any difficulties in the future, come to the union and find me.”
Su Yu was overjoyed. "The trade union is indeed the support of our working class. Officer Yan, I will strive to get closer to the trade union, study hard, and become a capable person so that I can repay the trade union for its help in the future."
"I will help you improve," Officer Yan said excitedly.
Hearing the workers' trust and reliance on the union filled Director Yan with immense pride and a sense of mission.
"Big sister."
Just as the two women were getting to know each other, Su Dazhi walked in from outside.
Upon seeing Su Dazhi, Su Yu's smile vanished instantly.
Yan Fang, as a union officer, was aware of the recent conflicts within the Su family. Seeing Su Dazhi arrive, she couldn't help but feel displeased. "Comrade Su Dazhi, you're very late."
Upon hearing this, Su Dazhi's face showed embarrassment. He had come from the factory. He was helpless; he didn't have a single penny on him, not even enough for bus fare…
He was too embarrassed to bring this up directly. This made Yan Fang feel even more that this man was really too much; he had no concept of family ties at all, and Ying, as a family member, had arrived later than her, a member of the union.
However, seeing that Su Yu was still lying in bed, he couldn't directly criticize his younger brother, so he simply got up and said, "Comrade Su Yu, I'm going to eat first, and I'll come see you later."
Su Yu smiled and nodded, "Officer Yan, I don't need anyone to take care of me. I can manage on my own. You should go back to work. Don't let me delay the organization's work."
"It's alright, the union's task for me is to take care of you."
Yan Fang smiled and left.
Before leaving, he gave Su Dazhi a reproachful look.
Su Yu watched Yan Fang's retreating figure. She hadn't expected that the person in question would be even more down-to-earth than the rumors suggested... making even a heartless person like herself feel a little embarrassed.
However, this is someone I can truly befriend.
"Big sister."
Seeing that Yan Fang had left, Su Dazhi finally dared to speak.
Su Yu glanced at him, then sat up and began to eat the boiled eggs in brown sugar water.
Su Dazhi had just arrived and hadn't eaten yet. Watching her eat, he couldn't help but swallow hard.
Su Yu ignored him, ate her food in big mouthfuls, and then put the empty bowl on the table next to her.
"Dazhi, the eggs are delicious."
Su Dazhi: "..." He could barely hold back his drool.
"How many years has it been since I've eaten an egg?"
Su Dazhi's saliva, which he hadn't yet swallowed, got stuck in his throat. How many years had it been since he'd eaten... five or six years, seven or eight years?
Su Yu sighed, "It all started from the moment our parents passed away."
Su Dazhi was speechless.
“Dazhi, our family had such a hard time back then. We had just started working, and we had to make steamed eggs for the whole family. Seeing you all eating so happily, I couldn’t bear to eat a single bite.”
"Sis, I'll buy you eggs from now on."
He sounded a little unsure of himself, as he didn't have a single penny to his name; he had given everything to Liu Mei.
Su Yu could tell what kind of person he was just by looking at him. She frowned and said, "What do you take me for? Do you think I'm someone who just wants to eat eggs? I'm a meat lover!"
Su Dazhi quickly shook his head. "No, that's not it."
Su Yu said seriously, "I'd rather not eat a single bite and leave it all for you. But I just didn't expect that you would think I would harm you and even want to separate from me?"
Su Dazhi was already feeling somewhat cheated, and when he heard Su Yu's question, he didn't know how to answer. "I, I..."
"I know, it's Liu Mei's, isn't it? You need to take care of your family, save money for your family, and want a house, right?"
Su Dazhi lowered his head in tacit agreement.
Su Yu immediately wiped her eyes. "Dazhi, put your hand on your heart. Have I mistreated you all these years? Have I ever asked you for a single penny? You eat the food from home and wear the clothes from home. I've been devoted to you. But think about it, what kind of life have you been living since you got married? You came all this way from the factory, didn't you?"
