Chapter 4 She wants compensation!



Xie Yunshu was not in a hurry, but just took out the dismissal letter from the factory from his bag: "Comrade Xie Yunshu was fired from the packaging factory because he suffered from mental illness."

After she finished reading this, she looked at Director Li with a half-smile: "There is a misdiagnosis certificate, but Director Li still wants to use this reason to convict me. Isn't this slander? It doesn't matter if you don't give me an explanation. I will go to the trade union to report the situation truthfully. If no one cares, I will take the train to Beijing North to report the situation! I don't believe that no one in our country will give me an explanation!"

Director Li never thought that Xie Yunshu would say such a thing! This dismissal is reasonable and legal, but if the union really makes a fuss, the director will be the first to suffer! You know, he can't stand the investigation...

But how can I return this position?

"Comrade Xie, if you have any needs, we can discuss it properly! We have known each other for such a long time, why make things so awkward? I remember your father was a good comrade!"

Director Li rolled his eyes, knowing that hard tactics wouldn't work, so he tried soft tactics: "How about this? If there are any more extra positions in the factory, I'll give you priority!"

Xie Yunshu could tell that this was a stopgap measure. She didn't know how long it would take for the factory to have more jobs. The packaging factory's performance had never been very good, and many workers in their teens had to retire early to let their children take over.

If she really waits, she will have nothing to do but wait for the northwest wind!

"I don't want the position, but I want compensation." Xie Yunshu finally said her purpose today. Her request was simple, that is, money: "This is the position my father exchanged his life for. You fired me on such a trumped-up ground. Even if you make trouble at the union, I am right! The monthly salary is 33 yuan, which is 390 yuan a year. I am only 22 years old this year, and I can still work for at least 20 years!"

"In addition to the usual bonuses and so on, I don't ask for much, just give me a total of 100 yuan in compensation! Let the new comrade take over the job, and I promise not to visit again!"

Director Li was stunned by her lion-like mouth. He rejected it without thinking: "Impossible! Xie Yunshu, you are too imaginative. Do you know how much money is? Impossible, the most I can give you is one yuan!"

One hundred yuan is enough for a family to eat rice for a year, and she actually asked for more yuan! What a joke!

Xie Yunshu said calmly: "Since there is nothing to negotiate, then I will go to the union to negotiate. If the union says that I should be compensated one dollar, then I will accept one dollar."

The reason why she was so sure that Director Li didn't dare to go to the union was because she knew that the first person to be arrested in the national anti-corruption investigation a year later would be Director Li. A packaging factory actually embezzled and accepted bribes of a full 80,000 yuan! No wonder the packaging factory's performance was not good. How could it be good with such a termite?

With something to hide, Li Changzi would definitely not dare to confront her at the union. Even if she did, she would probably only get a little over a dollar in compensation.

Sure enough, Li Changzi took a deep breath and said, "That's too much money. Let me give you 10 yuan on behalf of the factory. This is also for Lao Xie's sake. Otherwise..."

Xie Yunshu looked at him with a smile and said, "Five yuan, if it's less, go to the union to negotiate."

This damn girl is really stubborn! Director Li was a little angry, but he was really afraid that Xie Yunshu would cause trouble in the union, so he sent someone to investigate. In the end, he had to compromise: "Okay, I'll approve the compensation for you! Xie Yunshu, let me make it clear first, after you take the money, this packaging factory will have nothing to do with you!"

"Of course." Xie Yunshu nodded. This job was left by her father. She was just angry about losing it in this way, but she didn't really want to work here.

The work in the packaging factory is actually very tiring, and the salary is not high. People in the garment factory and steel factory can earn 50 yuan a month! Moreover, the packaging factory can only operate because it is a state-owned unit. When the state-owned enterprise reform in the 1990s came, the wave of layoffs came.

The packaging factory was one of the first state-owned enterprises to declare bankruptcy, and these workers were laid off.

It would be more economical to exchange a low salary for a few dollars instead of being laid off in a few years.

After coming out of the packaging factory, Xie Yunshu was in a good mood. She thought about it and rode her bicycle to rush home. Her mother should have known that she was put in the hospital and lost her job.

In her previous life, when she knew that she was locked up in the hospital by Lu Zhixing, her mother, who had been weak and good-tempered all her life, almost went to fight with Lu Zhixing. And her younger brother had just graduated from high school and didn't even come to class to support her.

It was a pity that her heart was filled with Lu Zhixing at that time. She refused to divorce and insisted on living with him, which made her mother and brother very disappointed. They were afraid that things would get too awkward and affect her life, so they had to hold back their anger!

But now, she couldn't hold back her anger at all!

Xie Yunshu's parents lived in a tube-shaped building on Changning Street in Haicheng. A long corridor connected many independent rooms. Xie's family lived on the first floor, which was a large suite next to a public water pool. It was dark and damp...

There was a sign saying 106 on the door. Xie Yunshu felt a little sad. She sniffed hard and knocked on the door gently. "Mom, I'm Yunshu."

With a creak, the door was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged woman with white hair stood in the door. Her eyes were red and tears welled up when she saw Xie Yunshu: "Yunshu, Yunshu is back! Come in, come in quickly! Let mom see you..."

It was ten years since she saw her mother again. No matter how hard Xie Yunshu tried, she couldn't hold back the extreme sadness in her heart. She hugged her mother like a wounded beast and cried, "Mom, I miss you..."

"My Yunshu has been wronged! She has been wronged! Don't cry, don't cry..." Li Fenlan gently patted Xie Yunshu's shoulder and whispered like coaxing a child: "Be good, Nannan, mommy is here!"

Xie Yunshu bit her lower lip tightly, tasting the slightest bit of blood before she could hold back her desire to burst into tears. She straightened up and said with sadness and self-blame: "Mom, I'm sorry, I lost Dad's job."

That was the job that Dad risked his life for. Her mother would wash her work clothes at the packaging factory cleanly and told her more than once to work hard and not to embarrass Dad.

But now, she was fired.

Li Fenlan shook her head, took her hand and sat down on the stool outside, then turned and went into the inner room, and came out with three hundred yuan in her hand: "Yunshu, take this money, Lu Zhixing treats you badly, you should be nicer to yourself!"

After hearing this, Xie Yunshu wanted to cry again.
