Chapter 245: I can go back to Beijing
Shen Meng was threatening people, but she was not afraid at all. From today on, the Xiangyang Flower Factory was firmly in her hands.
Xie Jing was so excited that she was really happy for Shen Meng. She could finally vent all the frustrations she had in the past.
The two sisters-in-law promoted the capable people who did their own work honestly to team leaders, and those who had poor craftsmanship and chatted all day long were all assigned to temporary workers.
Among them, there were a few people who had quarreled with Shen Meng, but they had good craftsmanship and were also regular workers. Although Xie Jing felt a little uncomfortable about this, her needlework was really good. Now that they were hiring people, some things could be put aside.
"In addition to the team leaders, let Sister Guihua and Aunt Tian be supervisors. They don't have to do anything. They just patrol back and forth every day to check the workers' enthusiasm and craftsmanship. Anyone who cheats or does things perfunctorily will be punished according to the rules and regulations. By the way, when recruiting people, we only look at their craftsmanship, regardless of age. Some elderly ladies have better craftsmanship than young people. Although such people work slowly, the quality is guaranteed. Jinghao, your work is very important, and you must work with full concentration."
"Okay, sister-in-law, I will do my best. No, but I think sister-in-law Xiaomei's craftsmanship is the best. It would be nice if she were here too."
Shen Meng also felt that her second sister-in-law didn't like to go out, and her needlework was very beautiful. But her belly was so big now, and it was obviously unrealistic for her to run back and forth. In addition, there was a food factory workshop in Shenjiaji, so she could work at home and go back at any time, so she wouldn't be too tired.
"She's going to give birth soon, so let's wait and see. It's really inconvenient for her to come to our village."
"That's right, sister-in-law, I'll go and get busy first, and I'll take Xiaoni home."
Shen Meng nodded. In the room, Xiaoni was still asleep, and her brothers and sisters gathered around her to watch her. It was just that Yongqiang's hands were a little naive. He would put his hands on Xiaoni every once in a while, and told his brothers and sisters that he was afraid that the little sister would not be able to breathe.
After Xie Jing took everyone away, Shen Meng was dozing off on the kang with Ming Kai
in her arms. Lu Zhenping came in at this time, saw the woman on the kang looking a little tired, and turned around and walked out. Shen Meng woke up in the afternoon. Ming Kai was no longer around her, and no one was looking for her outside. She washed up and sat in the main room waiting. After a while, Lu Zhenping came over with a bowl in his hand.
"Don't wait any longer. The village chief and his family have come several times, and I told them to leave. For some small matters, you only need to use your brain to think about them and you will know what to do. They used to think of everything comprehensively, but now they come to you for all the big and small matters. If you keep going on like this, your brain will get rusty."
"Hehehe, what is this?"
"Mutton soup, I made it for you. Drink it to replenish your body. There are some things I know about the hairpin factory, and I have told them about it. If you don't understand, you can handle it later. Work is work, but you also have to take care of your body."
Shen Meng took the bowl and took a sip. It warmed her stomach and made her feel very comfortable. However, she actually disagreed with Lu Zhenping's words.
"If you want me to get better, why don't you torture me less?"
"Ahem... Harmony between husband and wife is also an important factor in promoting your health, and it can't be missing."
"So many twisted ideas."
Shen Meng chuckled, holding the bowl and continued to drink mutton soup. After a long while, the courtyard door was suddenly knocked, and Ah Man's voice came through the courtyard door into the main hall.
"Uncle, aunt, it's Ah Man. I came to see you for something. Is uncle home?"
"Hurry up and let Ah Man in. He can come to our house in broad daylight. Is there any news about their return to the city?" Although Shen Meng said this, he probably had an idea in his heart. The book described that Ah Man was taken back to Shangjing not long after the New Year. According to the time, it was about this time.
Lu Zhenping led Ah-Man into the yard and told him to sit in the main hall. He went to the kitchen to find a pottery jar and filled it with mutton soup. He also scooped a lot of mutton and put it in the pottery jar. He also took a bowl and filled it with soup for Ah-Man.
"Why are you here at this time? Why are you wearing so little? It's cold in the evening. It looks like it's going to be windy."
"I have something to talk to Uncle Lu and Auntie. I came here in a hurry, but I don't feel cold at all."
Ah-Man smiled, thinking about what he was going to say and feeling a little nervous.
"Have some hot soup first. You came at the right time. I just made soup for your aunt and you came. Mutton soup is good for your health. I put some in this pottery jar and gave it to your grandpa to take with you when you leave."
Lu Zhenping reached out and rubbed Ah Man, whose eyes were red. This child was only seventeen years old, but he didn't go astray. His eyes were still clear. It was really rare.
"Thank you, Uncle Lu, thank you, aunt."
"Why are you being polite to us? Is your grandpa in good health? I haven't seen him for a long time. Although it's spring, it's still very cold in the morning and evening. You have to be more careful."
Ah Man gulped down two big mouthfuls of mutton soup and felt comfortable all over.
"Well, auntie, my grandpa is in good health. Uncle Lu asked Doctor Lu to visit my grandpa often. The food we were given was not stolen this year. I also hid the food you secretly sent to me. We have enough to eat. We are much better off than before."
"That's good. If you have any difficulties, come to see Auntie at any time. If I'm not at home, tell Mingyang. If you are in a hurry, go to your uncle and auntie. They will help you."
Ah Man nodded, and then said, "Uncle Lu, Auntie, I, I received a letter. There is news about my grandfather's rehabilitation in Shangjing. I will be able to return to Shangjing soon."
Shen Meng's face lit up. It was indeed this matter. Ah Man came home and said that there was news in Shangjing, which meant that there was accurate news. In a few days, someone would come to pick up the two of them.
Ah Man's grandfather was once a very prestigious researcher, but he was envied by others at that time, so he was demoted to Lujia Village. He really suffered a lot in these years.
"This is good news. Congratulations, Ah-Man. You can finally get out of this sea of suffering. When you and your uncle leave, I will make a new set of clothes for you two, make a pot of dumplings for you, and send you to the car, okay?"
Ah-Man's tears flowed down. He looked at Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng and sobbed.
"Uncle Lu, auntie, I can't bear to leave you. I don't want to leave."
"What are you talking about, you silly boy? You and your uncle have suffered so much in Lujia Village. It's so hard to go back to Beijing. You can't have such thoughts. You see Mingyang and the others are still in school. When they pass the exam to go to Beijing, I still hope that you will take care of them for me and your uncle Lu!"
Ah Man wiped away his tears and nodded heavily to Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng. He would work hard when he returned to Shangjing. When Mingyang's brothers went to Shangjing, he would have enough capital to take care of them.
