Chapter 182: Preferring Sons to Daughters
After get off work, Chen Yi said hello and left.
Because all the work is done in cooperation with Director Feng, she basically does no work except for designing.
During this business trip, Director Feng did not say a word, because apart from the design work, he was the one doing everything else.
Therefore, where these people are has nothing to do with him, so he never asked. When he gets off work, he packs up and leaves, and doesn't care about anything else.
The three young clerks left last, and they had to clean up the office.
Basically, three of us do it together. If one person does it for a whole day, we will leave very late at night, so we all do it together.
"Zhao Di, we're leaving first." Wu Mei called out, and things in the house were almost packed up.
Li Qing carried her bag and followed him out.
Finally, Zhang Zhaodi responded and then silently put on her worn backpack.
This bag was used by her younger brother when he was in school, and it became unused after he bought a new one.
After locking the office door, she walked out and followed the crowd out.
Zhang Zhaodi’s home is about five miles away from the factory, and it takes more than twenty minutes to half an hour to walk there, and that’s still a fast walk.
If I walked slower, it would take about forty minutes to get home.
When I got home, I heard a lot of noise as soon as I walked in the door.
Zhang Zhaodi entered the room and found her younger brother standing there angrily with a red face and thick neck.
The parents on the kang were the same, with no happy expressions on their faces.
Seeing her coming in, Zhang's mother was so angry that she yelled, "You crawled back here? Hurry up and go cook! I owe you guys all the time!"
Faced with this unprovoked anger, Zhang Zhaodi was already accustomed to it. She put down her backpack and went out to cook.
Thinking of what Director Chen said today, she pursed her lips and lowered her head to light the fire.
While eating, Zhang Zhaodi heard her younger brother Zhang Long talking, and then she knew why they had quarreled.
"Mom! If I don't go this time, they won't take me next time! It's just three dollars, can't you give it to me?" Zhang Long looked angry.
Hearing this, Zhang's mother stopped eating and looked up and said, "Longlong, what's going on at home? You go out with people every few days, how much money do you have to pay for it?"
Zhang Long has just started working, and his monthly salary is 28 yuan, which is 3 to 5 yuan a day, and is not enough for him to live on in a month.
The old couple gave up their jobs. Zhang Zhaodi took over Zhang's mother's job, while Zhang Long took over Zhang's father's job.
Now we are relying on these two children to work. Apart from Zhang Long's salary, we basically live on Zhang Zhaodi's 26 yuan a month.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Long stopped eating, stood up and said, "What's wrong with me spending some money? Aren't you two counting on me for your retirement? If you don't give it to me, forget it!"
After saying that, he threw down his chopsticks, stood up and left.
"Oh..." Father Zhang had a worried look on his face, feeling very helpless.
Zhang Zhaodi looked up and then whispered, "Mom, the company will be on a business trip in two days..."
Before she could finish, Zhang's mother threw down her chopsticks and said, "What are you doing? Why are you on a business trip? Who will take care of the family and cook?"
"You're still on a business trip. I tell you, if you can't do it, just quit! Just sell your job."
After hearing this, Zhang Zhaodi didn't dare to say anything even if she felt aggrieved.
After all, she didn't want to lose her job. If she lost her job, her family would find a partner for her, and she would basically be sold off.
It seems that she really can't go on a business trip.
Thinking that everyone could go on business trips, she felt inexplicably envious.
Zhang Zhaodi also wanted to be as good at work as Chen Yi, but she knew that if she couldn't learn, she would only be able to do odd jobs and would never have a chance to get ahead.
The next morning, Chen Yi came to the unit and started to work.
Everyone else was busy with their own things, and no one asked her to do anything.
Sitting on the chair, Chen Yi was thinking about how to escape and feed the piglets when she saw a person standing in front of the desk.
She looked up, her eyes a little confused, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Zhaodi had already made up her mind, and said with a smile, "Director Chen, I won't go on this business trip. Thank you very much for doing this for us, but it's not convenient for me to go."
In fact, she also knew that this opportunity was specially fought for by Chen Yi, with the purpose of broadening their horizons.
Unfortunately, she couldn't go at all due to the situation at home, so she had better stay here honestly.
If she really went there secretly, she would lose her job when she came back, and Zhang's mother would definitely sell her job.
Chen Yi looked at her and thought of something. Looking at Zhang Zhaodi's name, she knew that her family must favor boys over girls.
Moreover, the disappointment in the girl's eyes was very obvious. She wanted to go, but could not, probably because of her family.
Thinking of this, she didn't say anything, but nodded, "Okay, I understand."
She couldn't take care of other people's family affairs. Liang Xiaoju was still easy to deal with before, after all, her aunt was willing to take over.
But she is a grown girl now, so I am afraid I can’t help her even if I want to.
This kind of thing depends on Zhang Zhaodi herself, there is limited help others can provide.
Wu Mei also heard Zhang Zhaodi say that she would not go, and when she saw her come back, she was hesitant and didn't know what to say.
The other two little girls didn't say anything to comfort them, and even if they did, they were too pale and powerless.
During the lunch break at noon, Chen Yi discussed with Director Feng the work that would take place after they left.
There is no need to worry about the design issues. When they come back, they will probably have started wearing summer clothes.
In the afternoon, Chen Yi left early and found a place to deal with the problems in the space.
I haven't taken care of the chickens, ducks and geese for some time, and it's time for them to have their chicks.
The piglets grow fast, look different every day, and are very good eaters. None of them have any problems.
Seeing this situation, Chen Yi felt much more relieved.
After all, raising too many poultry together can easily lead to illness and even plague.
Fortunately, such a situation did not occur in the space, and no poultry had ever been sick, which made her very happy.
There is plenty of food in the space, so there is no need to worry about not having enough food for the time being.
For piglets, apart from regularly adding water and food, you don't need to worry about anything else.
The eggs need to be processed, otherwise another wave of them will break out of their shells.
It was still early after dealing with these things, so Chen Yi went directly to the black market. Wang Zhongjie was there, so she asked him to help kill chickens, ducks and geese.
Five of each kind. Too many would arouse suspicion.
Wang Zhongjie was not surprised to hear her request, because he knew that Chen Yi had a place where she could get these poultry.
Although he was curious about where the person got it, he never asked.
People in this line of work are afraid of people who talk too much. Although he is young, he knows a lot.
If he talks too much, I'm afraid Chen Yi won't do business here anymore. The same goes for other places, because these things can make money everywhere.
Today's update is early, right?
