Chapter 104: Fell asleep in his arms
After work, Su Qingyue called several team leaders over, announced that Xiang Jianming was the factory director, and distributed wages to everyone.
Everyone knows that the official factory director is Xiang Jianming, but the one who is actually in charge is Su Qingyue.
Xiang Jianming said a few polite words, and then said: "When the processing plant is officially built, we will recruit more people. The salary will be lower than yours. Everyone just needs to work hard!"
Kong Shan didn't expect to get 20 yuan a month as salary. She and her husband Xiang Shi'an together made 40 yuan.
The weather is getting cold, so I can buy two warm cotton clothes for Xiang Xiaoqiang.
Everyone was very happy after receiving their salary, and they were talking about what to buy for their families in the county town.
Pei Huaiye and Xiang Shian came back with the building materials, and everyone worked with the villagers to unload the materials onto the threshing ground.
"There's no room to put it in, so we have to cover it with tarpaulin, and someone has to watch over it at night."
"Then let's take turns. Shishui, you take care of the building materials tonight." Xiang Jianming had just made the arrangements.
Then Lei Jie from Shuangqiao Commune came.
"Captain Xiang, the brigade will need this tractor for half a day tomorrow." Lei Jie saw Xiang Jianming's face change, and quickly added, "The Qingshan team wants to give Shuangqiao Commune a thousand kilograms of grain. This is the stamped document."
Xiang Jianming took the document and looked at it. "But we still have to deliver tofu and mountain products to the city tomorrow morning. We agreed on this when we rented the tractor. We need to use the tractor every day."
"It's my fault for not making it clear. When you're done using it tomorrow, give it to Team Qingshan. They'll use it for half a day and then give it back to you."
Xiang Jianming looked at the stamped document and didn't know what to say. "Okay, after you deliver the goods tomorrow, you can come to the team and drive away directly."
After Lei Jie left, Su Qingyue asked Xiang Jianming, "Why is Team Qingshan sending food at this time?"
"Their village owed grain to the brigade before, so they should have made up for it by buying grain with the money they earned this year."
Pei Huaiye interrupted and said, "Find someone to look after the tractor tonight." Xiang Jianming nodded and quickly made arrangements.
"Are you tired? What do you want to eat in the evening?" Pei Huaiye asked softly while holding Su Qingyue's hand.
Su Qingyue smiled sweetly, "The weather is cold, I want to eat some hot noodle soup."
The couple sat close together, talking affectionately.
Shen Xunbao came to the team to find Xiang Jianming. He saw this scene from afar and was reluctant to look away.
Widow Liu walked over and touched his elbow, "Don't think about the wrong people!"
She was talking about Su Qingyue, but when Shen Xunbao heard these words, it didn't mean the same thing.
He glanced at Widow Liu and said calmly, "Sister Liu, are you still short of someone to light the fire in the kitchen? Can you add Su Qianqian?"
Widow Liu helped to make fire in the brigade, thanks to Su Qingyue's help. Su Qianqian and Su Qingyue didn't get along, and she didn't want to get involved in this mess.
"We have already recruited enough people. If you don't believe me, go ask Captain Xiang. There shouldn't be any easy jobs now."
Shen Xunbao thanked him and went to find Xiang Jianming.
In the Pei family's small courtyard, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai started whining when they heard the door open.
As soon as their owner came in, the two puppies jumped around Su Qingyue and Pei Huaiye.
Xiaobai rubbed his chubby head against Su Qingyue's shoe surface. After rubbing, he tilted his head to look at her, then looked at the kitchen, and then barked twice.
"You're hungry and asked me to cook for you." Su Qingyue found it funny and bent down to hug the dog, but was stopped by Pei Huaiye.
He picked up the two puppies and let Su Qingyue pet them. "Don't bend down all the time. Your health is the most important thing right now."
Su Qingyue's eyes were as gentle as water, and she said coquettishly, "I know, go and cook, I'm hungry."
Pei Huaiye smiled helplessly, opened the kitchen door, took out a few cakes from the cupboard, and poured a bowl of brown sugar water for Su Qingyue, "Have some food first."
Su Qingyue ate the cakes in small bites. Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai were so anxious that they were running around, drooling with greed. She had no choice but to take a steamed bun, break it in half and feed it to the puppies.
Pei Huaiye cooked faster and faster. He had already kneaded the dough and was washing the vegetables.
Su Qingyue fed a mouthful of snack into the man's mouth, "The processing plant let Captain Xiang be the director, and the profits were split 50-50, but Captain Xiang gave 10% to Big Brother."
Pei Huaiye choked because he ate too fast. Su Qingyue handed the brown sugar water to his mouth again, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"It would save a lot of trouble if we approach the captain. It would also be easier to apply for the advanced brigade at the end of the year. How much profit can the processing plant make in a month?"
Su Qingyue sat down in front of the stove and started a fire. She took out seven hundred yuan from her pocket and said, "This is the money to buy the machine. The captain gave it to me."
"After deducting the cost of wages, transportation, and other miscellaneous expenses, the net profit was ninety-four dollars."
Pei Huaiye put the onions and garlic into the oil pan to stir-fry, then put the cut tofu into the pan and fry.
"I made more money than I thought. After all, the cost was spread out more in the first month. Are you happy with your work?"
Su Qingyue put down the fire tongs, Xiao Hei jumped into her arms to keep warm, and Xiao Bai curled up at her feet. She touched the puppy's belly, her eyes sparkling.
"I'm happy. When our children are born, there will be factories in the village and soon there will be schools. The children won't have to go so far to study. The living conditions in the village will get better and better, and the children won't have to suffer so much when they are born."
Su Qingyue's clear voice sounded, and her cheeks were illuminated by a bright and hot light from the fire in the stove. Pei Huaiye felt a warm current flowing through his heart.
The wife who seems delicate in the eyes of outsiders is actually very ambitious and has aspirations. She is like a rose blooming in the wind on a cold night and is particularly full of vitality.
With a sizzling sound.
Pei Huaiye curled the corners of his lips, scooped three spoonfuls of tomatoes from the earthenware jar, poured them into the oil pan, stir-fried them, and then added water to boil.
Pei Huaiye rolled out the noodles, put them into the pot, and finally added the fried tofu and shredded cabbage, added salt and sauce to season, and a pot of tomato noodle soup was ready.
"It smells so good." Su Qingyue smiled and kissed the man's handsome face.
Pei Huaiye quickly steadied himself and raised the bowl in his hand, "Be good, go sit down at the table."
He shoveled all the charcoal from the stove into the brazier, and then placed the brazier under the table. "It's getting colder in the mornings and evenings. I bought some cotton and cloth. You can ask your sister-in-law to make some cotton clothes for the family."
"I can make it, too." Su Qingyue squinted her eyes with happiness as she ate the noodle soup.
"I know you will, but don't get too tired recently. I don't think there are any particularly good-looking ready-made clothes. Let's go take a look together when you have some time off."
"Okay." Su Qingyue held the bowl and drank the soup. After finishing the noodle soup, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Pei Huaiye turned around to serve the rice, and when he came back to his senses, the charming girl opposite him was dozing off with her head propped up.
He put down his bowl and chopsticks, picked up the person and carried him to the bedroom, then went back to the kitchen, filled a thermos with water and put it under Su Qingyue's feet.
Pei Huaiye cleaned up the kitchen and put the two puppies into the main room.
Then I washed up and rubbed my hands to warm them up before lying down.
The sleeping Su Qingyue seemed to sense something. She rolled over and put her thighs on Pei Huaiye, nestling in Pei Huaiye's arms and breathing evenly.
Pei Huaiye kissed her rosy cheek, then fell asleep with the delicate girl in his arms with a gentle smile.
