There are so many people in the military camp’s family compound, but there are very few jobs available in the camp.
No matter how hard you try and how much you worry, you may still not be able to get a job.
Now that there is a job right here, Ye Zhi will definitely seize the opportunity.
Ye Xiaoding had already fallen asleep. Ye Zhi leaned on the pillow, turned to look at Lu Wei, and asked, "By the way, do you have fixed working hours? I'm afraid no one will take care of Xiaoding at night."
Lu Wei is not always on the island. Sometimes he goes out to sea for patrols, usually for about three days. He also goes to other military camps on Qiongzhou Island to exchange work, which takes one or two days each time. Sometimes, when there is a special mission, he may be away for ten or eight days.
So Ye Zhi has to arrange household affairs according to her working hours.
Lu Wei rubbed Ye Zhi's fingers and said calmly, "In order to save electricity, most of the state-owned factories in the camp only work during the day, except in emergencies. As far as I know, the textile factory should be the same."
Ye Zhi nodded: "That's good."
It’s enough to take care of Ye Xiaoding at night.
Chen Zhian did not go back to Guangzhou, so he could keep Ye Xiaoding company during the day. Even at night, it would be good if he did not have to work the night shift.
Lu Wei thought for a moment and then said, "That textile factory is very close to our Sixth Regiment. If you have any questions, you can find me. If I'm on a mission, you can go there to find Li Guoliang, he's my subordinate."
Ye Zhi remembered Comrade Li Guoliang, who had come to their house last time when he was planting trees.
They should be Lu Wei's right-hand men.
Ye Zhi took note and said, "Okay."
Lu Wei added: "If it is inconvenient to take care of Xiao Ding at that time, you can ask Li Weimin's wife for help. My sister-in-law should be back soon."
Ye Zhi's eyes lit up. "Oh, that's right. I haven't met Comrade Li's wife yet. What's she like?"
Lu Wei responded softly, "He's a nice person. He never minded me eating and drinking for free all these years."
Although I always bring something with me every time I go, it still causes a lot of trouble.
Ye Zhi thought that if she wanted to work, she would definitely have to trouble others.
Li Weimin and Lu Wei have such a good relationship, they will definitely not refuse to help when needed.
But in the long run, Ye Zhi still felt guilty. If she gave him money, she didn't know if it would affect their relationship.
We'll have to wait and see about this after we get to work.
The two chatted for a few words, and the lights began to flicker again.
Ye Zhi adjusted the pillow, lay back on the bed, pulled Lu Wei's arm, and said, "It's time to turn off the lights. Go to sleep. Remember to give my reply to Commander Zhang tomorrow."
Don't miss this great opportunity.
Even if there is no official position, it will give her something to do.
Lu Wei hummed, but when the lights were turned off, he turned over.
He said, "Wife, why do you smell so good every day?"
Lu Wei hangs out with a group of men all day long, and is either training or on missions all year round, so there is no way he would have any fragrance on him.
But every time Lu Wei got close to his wife, no matter if she had just taken a bath at night or finished doing housework during the day, he would always smell a sweet fragrance.
Is it his illusion?
Ye Zhi pushed him and groaned, "Really? I feel like I stink. I'm sweating all day long."
It is still a bit hot in Qiongzhou Island during the day in September. Although there is a sea breeze at night, there is not even a fan in the house, so we have to rely on a large sunflower fan.
If you don't open the window, it will still be very hot and stuffy.
I still remember when I first came to Qiongzhou Island, it was the hottest time of the year. Ye Zhi was often woken up by the heat, and after waking up, she would also wake up Lu Wei who was sleeping lightly.
Lu Weiyi woke up and subconsciously picked up the sunflower fan to fan her.
But my back still feels hot and sweaty.
I sweat when I sleep and I sweat during the day, so how can I smell good?
I don’t know how Lu Wei’s nose grows!
Lu Wei laughed softly, his voice seductive: "It smells good to me."
Ye Zhi smelled the sandalwood scent on Lu Wei's body, and she didn't know how she responded to the person who was pressing her down.
The weather is dry and everything will catch fire at any time.
…
Two days later, Ye Zhi reported to the textile factory in the camp.
The transfer order had already been issued by Commander Zhang, so Ye Zhi officially took up the post without much effort.
The textile worker who was in charge of taking care of Ye Zhi was named Chen Fang, a local from Qiongzhou.
Their job in this workshop is sewing. There are more than 20 sewing machines neatly placed in the workshop, and everyone is busy and hardly stops.
Chen Fang didn't expect that such a pretty girl would come to the workshop. Even though she was married, she couldn't help but smile shyly when she spoke to her: "We are responsible for sewing here, and the clothes we make are also provided to the military comrades who defend the country, so we must be careful and serious."
Ye Zhi nodded seriously and said, "I will definitely be more careful."
Seeing Ye Zhi's good attitude, Chen Fang smiled and said, "I heard that you used to work in a textile factory. You should be able to get the hang of it quickly. This job is actually not difficult."
Chen Fang could tell at a glance that Ye Zhi's clothes were made of Dacron. Currently, this cloth was only available in a few coastal trading cities and was only used by the army.
Chen Fang guessed that Ye Zhi either had a good family background or a good in-law family.
Otherwise, who would be willing to buy this imported product?
Chen Fang then introduced her to several people in the group, and after they got to know each other one by one, everyone started working.
Fortunately, Ye Zhi was familiar with the work in the textile factory and didn’t waste anyone’s time, so she got the hang of it quickly.
The work in a textile factory is actually not too tiring because it requires hands, eyes, and feet, and there are fixed times for rest.
There is also time for a lunch break at noon, which is similar to when Ye Zhi was in Xitang Town before, and she even has more time to rest.
The afternoon get off work time is neither too early nor too late, so there is still time to go home and cook.
After officially joining the company, Ye Zhi found out that Chen Fang was a single mother with a son.
Her husband died in a shipwreck, and now she is raising her son alone.
Ye Zhi also heard from the wives of soldiers in the family compound that many local people on the island need to go out to sea to fish for a living. The boats of that era are simple and crude, and if they encounter a few waves, the boats will capsize directly, so there are many single women raising children.
Ye Zhi and Chen Fang get along quite well. Chen Fang is a very patient person and doesn't lose her temper easily.
So Ye Zhi was quite happy working in the textile factory.
Soon, everyone in the family compound knew that Ye Zhi had joined the textile factory.
In this era, everyone knows a little sewing, but Ye Zhi happened to get this good opportunity. She couldn't help feeling jealous. Why did she always get good things?
So many people were talking behind her back, saying that Ye Zhi relied on Lu Wei and Lu Wei's father, Commander Lu.
Some people also said that she hooked up with her teacher's daughter-in-law. Anyway, there were many different opinions.
Ye Zhi went to work and came home every day and was completely unaware of other people's gossip.
After working for eight full days, Ye Zhi finally had her first holiday.
A pavilion has been built in her yard, with a stone table and stone chairs inside.
So Ye Zhi had to spend her days leisurely growing vegetables, raising flowers and drinking tea.
She also called Huang Qiuchan and He Jinfeng.
While making tea in the pavilion, Ye Zhi saw Li Shufen again.
Li Shufen happened to be the teacher of Ye Xiaoding and Huang Qiuchan’s youngest daughter, so Ye Zhi thought about it and invited her in.
Li Shufen saw that Ye Zhi's yard was getting better and better. Then she thought back to her own yard, which only had a few potted plants, and now there were only a few broken pots left.
I feel very uncomfortable.
He Jinfeng was really happy for her.
"Xiaoye, it's good to have a job. It's easy to get moldy if you stay at home all day."
He Jinfeng felt that she was destined to be a hard-working person and would not feel happy if she did not work for a day, so when she saw Ye Zhi had found a job, she was very happy for her.
Other military wives have to wait for several years but still cannot get a suitable opportunity.
Ye Zhi came across a good opportunity shortly after she arrived.
Recalling the first time she went to the beach with Ye Zhi, the girl took her to find a few big crabs weighing two or three pounds.
This kind of luck is really unique.
Lu Wei is lucky to have married such a beautiful and blessed wife.
Ye Zhi smiled and said, "Well, Xiao Ding is also in school now, it's really a bit boring."
Li Shufen at the side smiled and said, "Comrade Ye, you should have a child with Captain Lu as soon as possible."
Ye Xiaoding is only Ye Zhi's nephew. No matter how close they are, he can't be regarded as Ye Zhi's biological son.
Ye Zhi has been on the island for about two months, but there seems to be no movement in her stomach.
You can still drink coffee and strong tea.
Li Shufen then remembered what Tian Qiuyun said, that she didn't even know whether she could have a child.
Ye Zhi took a sip of coffee and smiled: "There's no rush for this."
It’s not that she doesn’t want it, but Lu Wei calculated the time and felt that if she did it now, it would be too hot to give birth and recuperate in the summer, so she wanted to wait another two months.
By the end of the year, the weather on Qiongzhou Island becomes very comfortable.
The key point is that Lu Wei’s contraceptive method is not scientific, and you may get pregnant at any time.
So Ye Zhi didn’t know when she would get pregnant, and there was no rush.
When Li Shufen heard this, she felt that Ye Zhi had something else in mind.
Li Shufen smiled and said, "You are so young, if you work harder, you will definitely get it soon."
Huang Qiuchan found out she was pregnant again at the beginning of the month. She felt uncomfortable when she heard the topic of pregnancy, so she snorted, "Come on, why rush? Xiaoye finally found a job now. If it were me, I would give it up for now."
Huang Qiuchan used to have a job, but after having several children and no one to take care of them, she had to resign and come to Qiongzhou Island to join the army.
As soon as I followed the army, I didn't expect that there would be another...
I don’t know when this road to having a baby will end.
If she had a job, she would definitely not have another child this time!
Only when you get pregnant do you realize how precious freedom is.
He Jinfeng glanced at Li Shufen and said, "Comrade Li, you are still young, right? You should hurry up and have more children. After all, your Captain Liu can afford to support you."
Li Shufen curled her lips when she heard that. She is already two now and really doesn't want to have any more children.
She faces dozens of elementary school students every day, and is either scolded or angry to tears. She really doesn't like children that much.
Moreover, the job of teacher is not easy to find, as many educated youth want to be teachers.
Who knows whether the school will still want her after she gives birth to several children.
Ye Zhi simply said: "Neither Lu Wei nor I are in a hurry."
Others also became anxious for her.
Li Shufen just shut up.
But deep down, I was convinced that there must be something wrong with the young couple.
Which man doesn’t rush to have a child of his own after getting married?
Do you really think you can marry her and worship her?
Working in a textile factory is very fulfilling.
In addition to going to work every day, Ye Zhi's colleagues sometimes ask her about clothing styles.
After all, it's hard not to be noticed when you wear clothes.
Ladies all love beauty, and when they see that Ye Zhi's clothes seem to be different from what they usually wear, they will ask a few questions out of curiosity.
Ye Zhi sometimes also teaches them how to trim their waists and change their necklines.
Everyone was engaged in sewing, so everyone knew the key points after a few words. Soon, Ye Zhi became a celebrity in the workshop.
Although working hours are fulfilling, it is also really busy when it gets busy, especially at the end of the year.
The closer it gets to the end of the year, the busier Ye Zhi becomes.
In the past, we could have three or four days of holiday in a month, but at the end of November, we only had one day off in half a month.
On the day off, Ye Zhi slept until ten o'clock.
This had never happened before. Lu Wei happened to be on a cruise again, and Ye Xiaoding was the only one at home.
Ye Xiaoding knew that she was a little busy with work recently, so even if she didn't get up, he didn't wake her up on purpose.
For breakfast, I followed others to the canteen to get steamed buns and sweet potato porridge.
After Ye Zhi woke up, her head was still groggy, and she had no appetite when she saw the steamed buns and sweet potato porridge on the table.
Later, I drank some porridge and then went back to lie down.
I don’t seem to be sick, I just feel very sleepy and want to sleep.
Ye Zhi felt that this was because she had been working too long and had never had a rest, which was why she was like this.
Ye Xiaoding came back once at noon, and Ye Zhi sent him to the cafeteria again.
Ye Xiaoding checked Ye Zhi's temperature and found nothing abnormal, so he asked, "Aunt, are you sick?"
Ye Zhi also touched her forehead and said, "It's okay. I guess I've been busy for too long and haven't had a holiday."
"Go eat by yourself. I'll take a break."
As soon as the holiday comes, I fall into sleep.
happiness.
This time, Ye Zhi didn't sleep for long before she was awakened by a slightly cool touch.
Lu Wei put his hand on her forehead, his face full of worry: "Wife, are you okay? I heard from Xiao Ding that you slept for a long time."
"Honey, you're back?" Ye Zhi held Lu Wei's hand, feeling the coolness and comfort. She said angrily, "I'm fine, just too sleepy. I'll be fine after a nap. Don't go." After saying that, she reached out and held Lu Wei's hand and rubbed it.
The sea breeze made the trees outside rustle. The weather now was perfect for sleeping in.
Lu Wei reached out and touched Ye Zhi's forehead, feeling a little heartbroken, and said, "Why do you feel a little hot?"
Ye Xiaoding came in at some point and said anxiously, "Aunt, grandma said that a fever can make people stupid. How about I go find a military doctor?"
If my sister-in-law wasn't sick, why would she lie in bed for so long?
"You're stupid!" Ye Zhi couldn't help but laugh: "I'm really fine. If I had a fever, wouldn't I know it?"
"Don't worry, I just feel a little tired. I'll be fine after a rest."
Ye Zhi knew that this was because she had been working for half a month straight, so she thought it wasn't a big problem.
Lu Wei looked at Ye Zhi's lazy appearance and couldn't tell whether she was feeling uncomfortable or really tired.
Moreover, Ye Zhi was still holding his arm tightly, as if she was acting like a spoiled child.
Lu Wei thought about it, and sat down on the bed. He reached out and supported Ye Zhi's back: "Then take a rest. I'm here."
"Well, don't leave."
Ye Zhi felt that Lu Wei was right next to her, so she subconsciously rubbed towards him and then closed her eyes again.
Maybe because the weather was cooler and Lu Wei was by her side, Ye Zhi fell asleep again while smelling his familiar scent.
Ye Zhi didn't wake up until around five in the afternoon.
After waking up, his face was rosy and he looked full of energy, as if he had come back to life.
However, I don’t know if it was because I slept too much, but after Ye Zhi woke up, she felt like not wanting to move, so she just lay in bed and didn’t want to move.
Lu Wei poured some hot water and washed Ye Zhi's face. After washing, Ye Zhi felt much more comfortable.
Lu Wei sat beside the bed and saw that her expression had eased a lot. He said to her, "You are not feeling well. Let me cook tonight. You lie down for a while."
Ye Zhi remembered that Lu Wei only knew how to steam buns, but now she didn't want to eat buns or seafood either.
Then he said, "But I don't want to eat steamed buns."
Lu Wei couldn't help laughing, he only knew how to steam buns.
So he asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Ye Zhi also bought a lot of melons and vegetables yesterday, and also kept some long-lasting shells.
After thinking for a while, Ye Zhi said, "There are vegetables, clams, and scallops in the kitchen. You can make whatever you want, as long as it's not steamed buns."
"Okay, then do you want to try some clam noodles?" Lu Wei remembered that Ye Zhi had cooked that noodle once and everyone enjoyed it very much.
Ye Zhi thought about it and said, "Forget it, I'll do it."
She really didn't trust Lu Wei's cooking skills.
Last time I happened to have something to do and went to Sister He's place, so I asked her to help stir-fry some vegetables, but half of them were burnt.
Lu Wei supported her and asked worriedly, "Are you really not feeling unwell? I see that you don't look right."
Ye Zhi looked at him doubtfully, "No! I'm really just sleepy."
Lu Wei followed behind worriedly, only to see Ye Zhi get out of bed and walk steadily towards the kitchen.
Just as she was about to pick up the pot of clams, Lu Wei saw Ye Zhi couldn't help covering her mouth -
"vomit--!"
