Chapter 216: Let Zhou Jiaojiao take care of it
Lu Defa is not like these nagging women. He saw with his own eyes how polite Director Feng was to Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng. Especially Shen Meng, with just a few words, got a monthly subsidy of 15 yuan for himself, Hongfa, and Director Guo. That was 15 yuan. Seeing that the subsidy would be received at the end of the month, no one could cut off his job at this time.
Another textile factory didn't even give the commune's revolutionary committee director face, so it was given to Zhou Jiaojiao. This matter was not just about getting the textile factory, but also the supply and marketing cooperative. The county committee would not recognize Zhou Jiaojiao. Now the scattered orders have just made the workshop a little more stable, and they are still waiting for the provincial capital or other cities!
These things he Lu Debang couldn't do, even the revolutionary committee director couldn't do it. The messy relationships among them all needed a middleman. Zhou Jiaojiao was still pregnant. Would the village let her go out with a big belly?
Obviously it was impossible, not to mention that she couldn't take on this porcelain work.
"Alright, alright, what are you arguing about? Zhou Jiaojiao is so capable, why don't you let her get two orders first? She hasn't done anything yet, but she wants to take advantage of you. This Zhenping's wife ran around everywhere, helping to build up relationships with textile factories, supply and marketing cooperatives, and you guys paid for the favors in the middle. You keep talking about Zhou Jiaojiao. She's so powerful, why doesn't she think about providing some benefits to our village? You guys are making money now, but you're criticizing Zhenping's wife. Isn't that like eating with a bowl in your hand and cursing your mother when you put the bowl down?"
"Village chief, you can't say that. Jiaojiao is pregnant with a child. If it weren't for the child, she wouldn't have cared about the village. She used to be the most active member of our community."
"That's right. I heard that if Jiaojiao hadn't called Shen Meng to help, she wouldn't have had the chance to meet the director of the textile factory. In my opinion, this might have been Jiaojiao's idea. Shen Meng just saw Jiaojiao pregnant and took advantage of her."
"Ask around in the village. What was Shen Meng's reputation in the past? How come she has become a rarity in just a few months? I don't believe there is no conspiracy. Village chief, I heard that your nephew wants to join the army. He even invited Zhenping and his wife to dinner for this purpose. Is this true?"
Lu Debang was stunned. He didn't expect someone to bring up this matter. Just when he didn't know how to answer, Lu Debang's sister-in-law jumped out.
"Stop sneezing and spitting shit all over your mouth. Debang and Zhenping are a bunch of young men who grew up together. Is it our family's business to invite them to dinner? Ren Hongfa and Changhong have all gone. Besides, which young man doesn't want to join the army? Director Guo saw that your family was having a hard time, so he came to your house and asked you to come over to work. But you are so good, you just keep complaining all day long. You and Zhou Jiaojiao are so good, let her find you a job to earn money."
"My sister Meng ran around for this workshop, found so many connections, and spent so much effort, and you open your mouth and say this about her. You have no conscience at all. When you get the money, you praise her to the sky. It's only been a short time, and your tone has changed. Have you learned how to change your face?"
.......
Lu Xiangxiang and several people who were good friends with Shen Meng also started to fight back. For a while, no one paid attention to Wang Lianhua who was still crying on the ground. Xifeng held the poor Yaoyao and rocked her gently, hoping that she could come back to her senses.
The woman who shouted the most was speechless and didn't know what to curse for a while.
"You..."
"What do you mean by you? Since you look down on Xiao Meng, then don't work in the workshop. All of you should leave."
"Why should we leave? We are all saying fair words."
Yu Xueli was so angry that her hands were shaking. She was about to go up to call for help, but was grabbed by Shen Meng's arm. She turned her head and looked at Shen Meng, who shook his head at her.
"Village chief, since these sisters-in-law want Zhou Jiaojiao to be in charge, let her be in charge. I saw that when they were talking about me just now, the others were silent. I think they are also dissatisfied with me. It just so happens that I have other things to do and I can't handle it. From today on, I will not be in charge of the workshop. Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, Xiangxiang, if you want to work here, continue to work. If you don't want to work, go home. It just so happens that I have something else to trouble you with. Xifeng can come as well, she can help, but these are just small matters. Uncle Guai, can you help me send Xifeng and the others to the clinic? Yaoyao might be frightened, let the doctor take a good look at her."
Shen Meng said as he took out five yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Uncle Guai's hand. Yaoyao was such a pitiful child, she was stunned and didn't react.
"Oh, I get it. Xifeng, quickly take the child and get in the car. Daqing and Erqing, you follow Aunt Xiangxiang to our house. Uncle Guai will take your sister to the clinic and will be back soon."
Daqing and Erqing were also quite frightened. They just followed whatever Uncle Guai said. Lu Xiangxiang was also not vague. She walked over and held the two children, then snorted coldly at the smug old sisters-in-law.
"Sister-in-law Meng, you are no longer in charge of the workshop, why should I stay here? I don't know what kind of trouble I might have to endure, so I'm leaving."
"That's right, it sounds nice to say, but don't wait until you get nothing in the end and then beg Xiao Meng to come back. It won't be so easy to ask you then."
"You won't come even if you beg. Bah, you are a bunch of conscienceless people. Didn't Xiao Meng say to look for other villages? Our village is just right. In your mother's family, our village chief and party secretary are so anxious that they are smoking. Who would have thought that Lujia Village is so considerate? You should go there tomorrow. Our village chief and party secretary will listen to you."
...
Lu Debang was so anxious that he was jumping around. Why did he go to other village chiefs and party secretaries? Why did he go to other villages? He didn't agree to it. Zhang Hongfa and Director Guo don't know about this yet. If they knew, they would tear him apart!
"No, Mrs. Zhenping, Xiao Shen, Shen Meng, these nagging old women don't want to do anything if they have nothing to do with you. You can't leave. If you leave, the commune director will have trouble with us. Besides, you have always been the leader of this matter. If you, the leader, leave, what will happen to the follow-up matters? Hongfa, Director Guo and I don't understand anything."
Shen Meng shook her head and said nothing. She took Yu Shirley and the confused Wu Xianglan and left. Lu Qinlan and Su Xiaomei followed closely behind.
"Just go, and don't come back. With Jiaojiao supporting us, our workshop will surely get better and better in the future."
"That's right, making a hair ornament only earns a few cents, and the supply and marketing cooperative only makes three or five cents from each one. I don't know how much money she has taken from it!"
"What the hell, you want us to leave? Don't you see who I am afraid of?"
......
Lu Debang was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at the shouting women and said, "You are courting death, just go ahead and court death. Just wait, don't even talk about wages in the future, just wait to die of poverty and hunger!"
