Chapter 207: I dislike your poverty, but I am afraid that you will be rich
When Shen Meng got off work, he took out a large bag of Tanghulu from his workspace, and gave two to Yu Xueli when he saw her.
"I bought them when I passed by the supply and marketing cooperative. How was your day at work today? Are you getting along well with the people you work with?"
Yu Xueli was not polite and took the Tanghulu directly and put it in her bag. Shen Meng was the most annoying person. If she refused to accept the Tanghulu after a while, she might be scolded.
"I'm having a great time. With Director Cheng's support, the people in our cafeteria are very polite to me. I don't know where the lady who cuts vegetables heard that my family was having a hard time, so she secretly slipped me a small piece of bacon before leaving. Look."
Shen Meng took a look and found that it was indeed very small, the size of a baby's fist, but he could also tell that it was someone's kindness.
"Oh, they're all good meat. It seems that you get along well with this lady. But don't tell anyone about this. The hospital supplies the employees, and sometimes we buy some extra. It's normal for people to take some back secretly. But it's okay if there aren't many. Just hide them and take them back. Oh, by the way, for safety reasons, next time that lady returns the things to you, you should show them to Doctor Cheng at noon and tell her. Doctor Cheng won't take them back, but it's better for her to know."
Yu Shirley understood and nodded, then put the meat away. Not only did she get a piece of meat on her first day at work, she also brought back candied haws for her two children. Her heart was full of hope for the future.
Uncle Guai was waiting for them at the main road. There were already many people in the car, most of them were from Lujia Village. When they saw Shen Meng and Yu Shirley coming, they all greeted them warmly.
Now everyone knew that Shen Meng was the God of Wealth in Lujia Village. The daughters-in-law of two aunts worked in workshops and made only 50 or 60 cents a day. Everyone was looking forward to when Shen Meng would work harder and get bigger orders in the future, so that their daughters-in-law could make more money.
"Put it on. Your husband Zhenping asked me to bring it to you. He was afraid you would get cold."
Uncle Guai handed Shen Meng a military coat. Shen Meng opened it and put it on her shoulders with Yu Shirley. Yu Shirley glanced at her and sighed in her heart. The victim is a woman!
If it was a man, she would not be able to bear it and would definitely fall in love with him.
The women in the car looked at Shen Meng with envy on their faces. Some of the smart ladies saw that Yu Shirley, a divorced woman with a bad reputation, was now receiving a salary. They felt very uncomfortable and wanted to say something as soon as they opened their mouths.
"Mother Daya, how is your job going? How much does it pay a month?"
"That's right, Mother Daya, we also helped when you got divorced. When you were discharged from the hospital, we went to see you and brought you some dried vegetables. Remember? If your workplace needs help, you must remember your sister-in-law!"
"It's okay if you don't have a job. If you make money, don't just think about yourself. You have to be grateful!"
"Pooh, pooh, pooh, what are you old women talking about? When Daya Niang got divorced, what did you do? You just sent her some dried vegetables? She just started working and has two children to take care of. She can't even live a good life, and you're thinking about her. Are you that kind?"
The one who spoke was Lu Changhong's aunt, Grandma Zhang. She happened to live very close to Yu Shirley's home. When she heard people talking about her, she naturally didn't agree. Just because she lived close, she knew a little about her family's affairs. The food in her family was still the same as what one person worked for last year. How could it be enough for the three of them?
Now she's just waiting for the salary at the end of the month to buy something good to cook for the children. This is good. I don't know where this dog-headed thing came from, but he came here with the intention of getting something good.
"What you said is true. Don't think that just because you live nearby, you can bring all the benefits to your own home, huh!"
"That's right. Renda Ya's mother didn't say anything, but you got anxious first. Aren't you afraid that we will rob you?"
Yu Shirley pulled Grandma Zhang and said, "Don't be angry, Auntie. It's windy, don't choke." After she said that, she looked at the other aunties.
"Auntie, I'm just a temporary worker. If anything goes wrong, I might be fired. What's the benefit of this job? Cutting vegetables and cooking in the kitchen are all hard work. I'm content to get off work early. A country person working in the county town, how can people look down on you? It's good enough if they don't point at you and scold you."
After she said this, she sniffed her nose. Now, the aunties who were arguing just now immediately began to comfort Yu Shirley. She blinked at Shen Meng and nodded pretentiously.
Shen Meng watched this scene coldly. She didn't want to say anything. When Yu Shirley was in such a miserable state, everyone felt sorry for her and were willing to lend a hand. But now it was different. A poor person who had no food to eat and no place to live suddenly got a stable job. This was unacceptable.
It was typical that they disliked your poverty and feared your wealth, hated your wealth and laughed at your lack of wealth.
When she was almost comforted, Shen Meng slowly raised her head and looked at the arrogant aunts.
"The commune leader found a job for Dayaniang because he saw how hard her life was. Her case is a typical example. There are so many women who are beaten in the countryside. Who dares to divorce with their children? The leader's intention is very clear. He wants to protect the will of women comrades. This time, he was able to get a connection with the commune and the textile factory. It was mainly because our village cared more about Comrade Yu Shirley that they placed the hair flower workshop in our Lujia Village. If this gets out later, If something bad happens to Comrade Yu Shirley, it is uncertain whether there will still be so many people from Lujia Village in the workshop. They are all members of the same commune, and the same applies to women from other villages who come to work. "
When they heard this, their faces turned pale, and they looked at Shen Meng's appearance, and the blatant knocking. They were so nervous just now. After all, they were also making money. If something really happened, wouldn't it ruin their family's financial prospects and give others the opportunity to make money?
"Hey, I'm a bad talker. Let me just say this. Don't be angry with Auntie, Sister-in-law Zhang. Don't be the same as us, Sister-in-law Zhang. You and Daiyaniang live close to each other, so you can help me!"
"No, eldest girl, you are soft-tempered. If people in your work unit bully you, you have to tell your aunt. She will go over and help you scold them. No matter what, the people in the city are awesome. The people in the city are superior to us. They are all talking nonsense. They are all the same people. We are not afraid of them."
"I told you that our village workshop owes a lot to Xiao Meng, but you still don't believe me. Look, I'm right!"
Yu Xueli smiled at Shen Meng, then turned her head away. Really, this woman always exudes charm all the time, making people's hearts itch.
