On the second day after arriving in Suicheng, Ruan Zhengyang was about to go to work and suggested taking Pei Yuanzheng to have a look.
Pei Yuanzheng originally wanted to accompany Ruan Niannian for a walk around her hometown, but was dismissed by Ruan Niannian with just one sentence.
"This is my home. My mom and sister are with me. I don't need you to watch over it every day. Go, go and see the world with my dad. Don't just stay around your wife and children all day."
Since his wife had said so, what else could Pei Yuanzheng say? He could only follow his father-in-law to the factory to accompany him to work.
The Chinese New Year is just a few days away, but the factory does not have any holidays. Everyone is working as usual. There are even more people on duty during the Chinese New Year period than usual.
Pei Yuanzheng followed Ruan Zhengyang to the factory. Before he reached the office, he met a smart and a little too honest young man, who was very fond of him.
On the other side, Ruan Niannian was accompanied by her mother Ruan, Ruan Sisi and two children, Ping Ping'an, and she would not be left alone wherever she went.
Brother-in-law Qiu Aiguo never leaves his room except when he eats. Ruan Sisi said he doesn't want to cause trouble for the family.
After lunch, the sun was shining outside and Mother Ruan had to take a walk around the factory. Ruan Niannian saw that the weather was good, so she asked Ruan Sisi to accompany her to the park.
"Sister, don't you work in a textile factory? I remember you were hired a long time ago. Did you ask for leave these two days?"
After Ruan Niannian asked, she clearly felt that Ruan Sisi's arm around her stiffened for a moment, and then softened again.
She said helplessly: "I sold the job to someone else. At that time, your brother-in-law... Forget it, let's not talk about this. Yesterday, I only heard you talk about happy things. Did you suffer any injustice over there?"
"Sister, I've told you not to worry about me. Do you think my expedition will cause me any harm?"
The two sisters were talking in private when they suddenly heard two people talking under a big tree nearby.
It's a man and a woman.
"Sister, do you think they look like they're on a blind date? Let's find a place to take a look?"
Perhaps it was because she had been influenced a lot by Wu Lanhua in the village over the past year, so when she heard gossip now, she would unconsciously stop and listen.
Ruan Sisi naturally followed her lead and found a bench nearby to sit down with her. People passing by could tell at a glance that they were out for a walk, so how could they suspect that they were eavesdropping on other people's conversation?
After listening to a sentence or two, Ruan Niannian was certain that the two people were here for a blind date.
The man said, "My current monthly salary is 48.80 yuan. I heard that you just got a permanent job. How much do you make a month?"
The woman clenched her fist and said reluctantly, "Thirty-two dollars and thirty cents."
She has been on several blind dates, and every time the man heard her salary, he would break up no matter how satisfied he was with her.
In Suicheng, there is no shortage of high-paid workers. More than 40 yuan a month is not considered a high income, but it is much higher than that of ordinary workers.
Sure enough, when the man heard about her salary, he couldn't help but frowned and criticized: "It's a little less, but it's not bad, but the betrothal gift has to be less. Our family will give 200, see how much you can bring back."
Is this how blind dating works?
Ruan Niannian was a little confused. What she had experienced was an abnormal blind date arranged by Li Dani and Chen Panpan. She didn’t know the process of a blind date, but it shouldn’t be the same as the one in front of her, right?
This man's mouth is so realistic.
"I just got a permanent job, so it's a little less, but my mother said that as long as I work hard, my salary will increase." The woman blushed and explained anxiously, and then said: "My mother said that the betrothal gift cannot be less, it must be 500. My mother worked hard to raise me, so I can't take this money back, but my mother will buy me a dowry."
The woman kept saying "my mother said" and completely refuted the man's previous remarks. It seemed like a "fairly evenly matched" blind date.
The man didn't buy it. He suddenly got angry and pushed the woman. "Zhou Caiyun, do you have to follow your mother's advice? Do you have any ideas of your own? It's already this time, and your parents are still arranging your marriage? We were introduced by someone, so this is considered free love. You shouldn't even ask for a betrothal gift. You listen to your mother so much. After you get married, you won't want to move our things back to your brother, right?"
Faced with the man's sudden attack, the woman was obviously not expecting it and was a little at a loss.
She quickly calmed down and looked at the man expressionlessly, "The great leader has said that men and women are equal. I am marrying you and our home is shared. You can support your mother, so why can't I give you something? You are unreasonable."
Before the man could say anything else, Zhou Caiyun unilaterally announced the end of the blind date: "Comrade Qin Shouren, I don't think we are suitable. You can ask someone to introduce you to someone else."
"Why?" Qin Shouren was incredulous. Seeing Zhou Caiyun was about to leave, he quickly held her back. "Zhou Caiyun, you actually still look down on me? Is it because of your salary of more than 30 yuan a month? I can increase the betrothal gift a little. You have a big butt, so it's good for giving birth to a boy. I'll take a step back. What do you think?"
As he spoke, he reached out and touched Zhou Caiyun's butt and pinched it.
This simple action angered Zhou Caiyun. She raised her hand and slapped Qin Shouren in the face. "You bastard, you pinched a lesbian's butt in the park. I'm going to report you and make you eat a bullet!"
Zhou Caiyun had a very strong personality. After she slapped Qin Shouren, she saw that he wanted to fight back and immediately shouted, "Help! A gay man is trying to be rude to a lesbian! Help! Help!"
"You! Don't shout! I didn't act rude to you!" Qin Shouren wanted to cover Zhou Caiyun's mouth.
In the eyes of passers-by who were attracted by Zhou Caiyun's shouting, his action seemed like an attempt to be a hooligan.
"What's wrong with you, gay? You are being rude to lesbians in broad daylight. Stop it now!"
"That's right, if you don't stop we'll send you to the police station and put you in jail!"
"Oh my, this bastard is bullying female lesbians in the park. Everyone, hurry up and catch him! Catch him! Put him in jail!"
The elderly people passing by in the park all had a strong sense of justice, and they all urged Zhou Caiyun to call the police.
Qin Shouren realized the seriousness of the matter and quickly said, "I didn't, I didn't act like a hooligan, I just wanted her to shut up. We were here for a blind date, I make 48.80 yuan a month, and she only makes 32 yuan a month. I was not satisfied, so she accused me of being a hooligan and tried to force me to have sex with her."
Qin Shouren turned the tables on them and the looks of the old men and women around them changed again.
The salary difference is indeed quite big. The guy earns 48.8 yuan a month. Why would he ruin his future to take advantage of a female comrade who is not as good as himself?
Everyone looked at Zhou Caiyun with unfriendly eyes.
"He lied. I saw him touching this lesbian. The lesbian said she didn't like him, but he touched her... In short, he was a hooligan. He even said that the lesbian wanted to take advantage of him. He is worse than barbecued pork, bah!"
