Chapter 237 Buying a TV
It is
the coldest time of the year, and Jiang Yu doesn't even want to get out of bed.
But she has to go to work, and after lying in bed for a while, she has to get up again.
"It's too cold today." Jiang Yu shivered as she squatted outside to wash.
The hot water just drawn out soon became cold.
She quickly washed up and went into the house to apply face cream.
"Let's go to Dongkelai to eat mutton hotpot today."
Mutton hotpot is not cheap, two yuan a plate of meat, dipped in sesame sauce, it is so fragrant.
In cold weather, Jiang Yu wants to eat this.
He Tingyue said, "I'll buy it, and we'll go home to eat."
Jiang Yu had no objection and was about to give him money, but he pushed her back.
"I still have some here. If you don't have enough, ask for more."
The two were about to go out to work, and turned around to hear the noise coming from the Duan family.
Duan Yuzhen shouted angrily: "What do you mean? The whole compound knows that you and I are in a relationship. Now you say you don't want to get married, so what should I do? Tong Fang, you want to be a hooligan!"
Lin Donghua also hurried to work, but still stayed to persuade her: "Yes, Tong Fang, marriage is a big deal, you can't be so casual."
Tong Fang said: "I want to break up with you, of course I have my reasons. But for the sake of Grandpa Duan, I will give you some face and let's part ways in peace."
He also left Duan Yuzhen a hundred yuan as compensation for her reputation.
Duan Yuzhen swept the money on the table. What she cared about most was her face. Who would care about this little money?
Her eyes were red and she was shaking with anger.
"Tell me, what is your reason? What do you mean by saving face for me? I think you are guilty. Do you have someone else? Are you worthy of me?"
Even Tong Fang, who was married for the second time, didn't want her. Duan Yuzhen felt that her face was hurt.
Tong Fang was entangled by her and had no choice but to think that since she said so, there was no need to hide it.
"Do you know why Bai Lan, the spy lurking in our compound, was exposed in advance?"
The topic changed so quickly that Duan Yuzhen didn't react for a while.
"How should I know? What does she have to do with what we are talking about now?"
"Of course it has something to do with you! Because you repeatedly instigated those two children, first letting them steal things from Jiang Yu's house, and then teaching him to murder Tong Yuan. She has confessed everything, what else can you say?"
That person just hated Duan Yuzhen's difficulties, so he wanted to let everyone in the family compound die together.
When Tong Fang knew all this, his heart was cold.
Before entering the house, Duan Yuzhen was thinking of ways to get rid of Tong Yuan.
As a stepmother, would she be good to Tong Yuan?
He was just kind-hearted, but not stupid.
"Sister Lin, I can't gamble with my son's life! I really can't afford this marriage."
Lin Donghua looked at Duan Yuzhen in a daze. She didn't even know when Tong Fang left.
"Yuzhen, do less bad things, or you will be punished."
She really didn't have the energy to persuade Duan Yuzhen anymore, so she turned around and walked out quickly.
Jiang Yu smiled, "Sister Lin, are you going to work? I'll take you there."
Lin Donghua forced a smile, "Okay, thank you."
She was exhausted by Duan Yuzhen's affairs and couldn't laugh.
The two of them were silent all the way to the second factory. Jiang Yu comforted her, "Some things can be managed, and some things can't be managed. She is your sister-in-law, not your daughter."
Duan Yuzhen has her own parents, and at least she has a brother. It's not her turn as the eldest sister-in-law to educate her.
Lin Donghua sighed, "I understand."
Jiang Yu walked into the second factory and went straight to the publicity department.
Not long after she sat down, she was called into the office by Section Chief Jin.
Section Chief Jin was very happy. Jiang Yu had made a contribution, which was an honor for the Propaganda Department, so he was naturally happy.
"I think Tingyue has mentioned it to you. After a decision, the factory unanimously agreed to give you a salary increase."
What honorary certificates and banners, they are all fake.
What do the factory employees need most? Of course, it's money!
"According to regulations, salary increases must be made at least one year later. But special circumstances will be treated specially. From now on, your salary will be paid according to the sixth-level clerk, and you will be rewarded with a TV ticket!"
Jiang Yu was shocked. She thought she would get a raise of one level or a few yuan, but she didn't expect the factory to raise her salary by two levels!
From the original salary of 33 yuan, it jumped to 43 yuan!
"Thank you, Chief Jin, I will continue to work hard!"
Chief Jin smiled with relief, "All the employees of our second factory should thank you, if it weren't for you... Forget it, let's not talk about this, keep working hard, young people have a bright future!"
Jiang Yu came out holding the TV ticket, and his happiness was visible to the naked eye.
Wu Jinshun smiled, "Did you get a reward?"
Jiang Yu nodded vigorously, "Yes, it's a TV ticket!"
Zhou Xue's eyes almost popped out, it was a TV ticket!
"Tsk, can you afford a TV? This ticket is useless to you."
Jiang Yu glared at her, "Whether you can afford it or not, this is a reward from the factory. If you are jealous, you can do something good and let the factory reward you with one."
Zhou Xue sneered, "I don't want it."
How could she not want it? Nowadays, if a family has a TV, they will be very excited.
When it was time to get off work, Jiang Yu went home happily holding the TV ticket.
When Section Chief Jin gave it to her, it was in an envelope.
She took it home and didn't open it, leaving them a little surprise.
When He Feiyan saw the big words on it, she exclaimed in surprise: "TV ticket? Is it a reward from the factory to my sister-in-law?"
Jiang Yu nodded with a little pride.
"They also raised my salary. From now on, my sister-in-law's salary will be 43 yuan. If it's a festival, plus subsidies and bonuses, she can get 50 yuan!"
"Wow!"
The children were very happy. What made them happiest was the TV ticket.
"Sister-in-law, are we going to buy a TV?"
Jiang Yu thought about it for a while and decided: "Buy!"
Nowadays, a 12-inch TV only costs a little over 400 yuan, and the family can afford it.
He Zhengdong and He Lilan shouted happily: "Yeah! Buy a TV!"
The two children's voices were so loud that the people outside heard it and ran out.
"Whose family bought a TV?"
He Feiyan ran out and said, "Auntie Ruan, my family is going to buy a TV!"
Grandmother Sun was surprised, "Where did your family get the TV ticket?"
He Feiyan: "The factory rewarded my sister-in-law!"
Everyone knew that Jiang Yu had made a contribution in the "spy" incident, and the factory would definitely reward him.
But no one expected such a big deal, and he actually rewarded her with a TV ticket!
Grandmother Sun was jealous, the He family's life was really getting better and better.
In the past, their living standard in this affiliation was one of the best.
Now they have left them far behind and bought a TV.
"Buy it! If you buy it, you can also ask our neighbors to come over and visit."
He Feiyan said, "It's okay if they come to take a look occasionally, but if they come every day, I won't do it. We can't live like this anymore."
