Seeing that it was almost time and he had to go to work in the afternoon, Wu Huaiqing said goodbye to the two and left.
Before leaving, Yu Yao invited him to her house for dinner this weekend, as they were preparing a housewarming party.
Wu Huaiqing nodded expectantly, "I will definitely come."
After washing the dishes, Lu Ze came out of the kitchen and announced some good news to her.
"Your job is settled. The food factory is expanding its recruitment this time, and the military can arrange for three family members. The division commander said you'll get one spot."
Yu Yao asked in surprise, "So you mean I don't have to take the exam?"
"You don't need to take the recruitment exam, but you still need to take the entry exam. They are all simple and basic exams. As long as your score isn't too bad, you'll be fine."
Did they specify the exact position? When do I start work?
"The specific job will be arranged by the factory. There's no need to rush to start work. We'll wait until the unified recruitment exam is over, which will probably be at the end of September."
It's only early September, which means she still has a month to finish decorating the yard.
Yu Yao was very satisfied and asked, "Is the new factory far from the military base?"
“It’s not far,” Lu Ze said. “It’s right next to the Haixing Food Factory, in the same direction as the supply and marketing cooperative. We start work at eight in the morning and finish at five in the afternoon. There are twenty-minute breaks in the morning and afternoon, an hour and a half for lunch, and one day off on the weekend.”
Yu Yao knew that the system of one day off per week was in effect back then.
Although it's a one-day-off-per-week job, after deducting rest time, the actual working hours are less than eight hours a day.
The key point is that state-owned factories almost never require overtime work except when they need to meet production targets, and they also receive various welfare subsidies every month.
The fact that you can leave work on time is absolutely a dream job for office workers.
After Yu Yao finished being happy, a question came to mind.
"Sister-in-law Sun Yu said before that arranging work was slow, how come I'm so fast? Is it because of the two spies we arrested today?"
Lu Ze agreed with this, "It was indeed because of spies. The spy we caught today was extraordinary. The investigation department must have gotten some information out of him. The division commander is very happy. Consider this a reward for your work."
Yu Yao hadn't expected any extra gains, but something made her a little worried.
“I heard that other military dependents have been waiting in line for a long time to apply for jobs. Is it inappropriate for me to cut in line like this?”
"It has always been a tradition of the island troops to give priority to the families of military personnel who have made special contributions, in order to encourage them to make the island better. This matter will be announced to the public later, so you don't need to feel pressured."
Hearing Lu Ze say that, Yu Yao felt relieved.
She actually turned misfortune into a blessing in disguise this time. Zhou Yinhua would probably be furious if she knew.
She doesn't think that just because she ran away quickly, she won't have to settle scores with her, does she?
Yu Yao asked, "Lu Ze, do you know which building in the old family compound Zhou Yinhua lives in?"
Lu Ze took off his apron and hung it on a nail on the wall. "I know."
"Fine, tell me. I need to settle the score with her for what happened today."
“I know where he lives, I’ll go with you.”
Yu Yao shook her head, "No need, don't let it interfere with your work. I know what I'm doing, she won't get the better of me."
“Alright,” Lu Ze told her where Zhou Yinhua was, “I’ll go to the division commander’s house in a bit and talk to Comrade Zhu for you. With her there, Zhou Yinhua won’t dare to deny it.”
Yu Yao nodded. "Okay."
After Lu Ze left, Yu Yao went back to her room first.
The ultraviolet rays were too strong at this time, so she was fully armed from head to toe to make sure she wouldn't get sunburned before taking the straw hat off the wall and putting it on.
Yu Yao locked the courtyard gate and set off.
Song Yufeng was hanging clothes out to dry in the yard when she saw her doing this and asked her a question out of curiosity.
Knowing that she was going to settle accounts with Zhou Yinhua, he was afraid that she would be alone and helpless, so he volunteered to go with her.
Seeing her insistence, Yu Yao agreed.
I'll ask her how to ride a bicycle on the way.
When Song Yufeng heard that Lu Ze had bought her a bicycle, her envious gaze almost materialized.
"Commander Lu is so good to you. Little Golden Deer is the most popular bicycle brand among the families of islanders. It's so convenient to ride one when you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things."
Yu Yao: "Sister-in-law Yu Feng, if I can learn to ride a bicycle in the next two days, I can ride with you to the supply and marketing cooperative the day after tomorrow."
Although both Sister-in-law Sun and Sister-in-law Yufeng said they could take her along, she felt embarrassed.
If you bring her along, your sisters-in-law can't buy too much stuff each time.
Song Yufeng knew her worries and comforted her.
"I think you'll be fine. You're so smart, you'll definitely learn it in no time."
Yu Yao nodded, "Then let's finish this quickly, and I'll learn it when I get back."
Song Yufeng said gently, "Okay."
The two walked towards Zhou Yinhua's house.
Twenty minutes later.
They arrived at another residential compound on the island and found Zhou Yinhua's home.
Zhou Yinhua had just been questioned by the investigators and released; she was now sitting in the courtyard eating.
Zhao Jiabao and Zhang Xiue were also there.
Zhang Xiue recognized Yu Yao immediately when she saw her.
"What are you doing in our house, you wicked woman? You're not welcome here!"
Zhou Yinhua asked in surprise, "Mom, you two know each other?"
Zhang Xiue angrily accused: "The woman who reported me and Jiabao on the train was her."
Zhou Yinhua never expected that the woman Zhang Xiue was cursing every day was Yu Yao.
Zhang Xiue asked Zhou Yinhua, "Who is this woman?"
If this scoundrel's position is lower than his son's, then this woman will be in for a beating.
It would be best to pay her the fine for fare evasion.
Zhang Xiue had a dream come true; she had even prepared her insults.
Zhou Yinhua said, "She is Yu Yao, the woman that Commander Lu married."
