Chapter 4: Trading Work for Money



Su Ruoli lay on the bed thinking.

If Su Xiaoling is Su Shiqiang's biological daughter, then Su Shiqiang is cheating on his wife. Su Shiqiang and Jian Mei were married for more than a year before they had her, but Su Xiaoling is only two months older than her.

If Su Shiqiang really cheated on his wife, that would be so disgusting.

No, I have to find a way to sever ties with Su Shiqiang. I don’t want such a disgusting scumbag father.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Su Xiaoling coming back.

"Mom, why are you cooking? Where is that loser?" Su Xiaoling asked while taking off her shoes.

"Don't mention it. I don't know if that little bitch took the wrong medicine or not. She won't cook. I have to do it. Go wash your hands and eat."

"Mom, Brother Jianzhu said he and Aunt Lin will come to our house tomorrow to discuss our marriage." Su Xiaoling deliberately said loudly. Anyway, the little bitch already knew, so there was no need to be sneaky. From now on, Brother Jianzhu would be hers alone.

"Really? Then come with me to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things tomorrow morning, and we will treat you well." Wang Aifang said in surprise.

"Okay, it happens that we get paid today. You two should go buy some more meat tomorrow so that people won't look down on us." Su Shiqiang also agreed. "Is Director Lin coming?"

"I should be here. Brother Jianzhu didn't tell me. Mom, tomorrow I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy that floral dress I liked last time. It will definitely look good on me."

"Okay, buy, buy, buy."

Su Ruoli listened to the sounds outside the door. It really was a happy family. Ha!

Su Ruoli fell asleep in a daze after listening to the sounds outside the door. She didn't know what was said afterwards.

When I woke up, it was quiet outside. I guess the whole family went out shopping.

I quickly washed up in the bathroom, then went back to my room to find a piece of clothing that wasn't too flimsy and put it on before going out.

She was going to the textile mill to see if she could get the job today.

When I went out, I realized that I really had no money. I had no choice but to walk there. Fortunately, it was not very far and it only took 20 minutes to walk there.

When we arrived at the textile factory, the security guard was sitting on a stool, squinting his eyes in the sun.

She walked over and asked, "Uncle, I have something to ask the factory director. Is he here?"

The old man looked her up and down, then stood up from the stool and said, "Girl, what do you want to do with the factory director? He's in his office. Come on, I'll take you there." After saying that, he walked ahead with his hands behind his back.

She quickly trotted to catch up and asked the old man about the factory director. "Uncle, can you tell me what kind of person the factory director is?"

"The factory director is a nice person, fair and just, and treats employees kindly. We're here now, and the director's office is just in front. Go there yourself." The thin old man pointed to the office in front.

"Okay, sir, thank you!" Then he walked towards the office.

"Beep, beep, beep..." Su Ruoli knocked on the door.

"Hello, are you Director Wu?"

A middle-aged man, about fifty years old, sat at the desk and looked up. "I'm Director Wu. Miss, are you looking for me?"

"Hello, Director Wu, I'm Jian Mei's daughter, my name is Su Ruoli."

"It's you, little girl. What brings you here today?"

"Director Wu, the thing is, my mother told me before that you promised to give her a job and asked me to come to you when I turned eighteen."

"I promised your mother that I would give her a certificate. Did you get it?" asked Director Wu.

Su Ruoli took out a piece of paper from her pocket and handed it to Director Wu. "Can you take a look at this?"

Director Wu took it and took a look. "Yes, this is it. Miss, have you ever been to school?"

"I graduated from high school."

"Okay, the finance office is still short of one person, so why don't you go there, okay, little girl?"

"Okay, can I go and handle the formalities now?"

"Wait, I'll ask someone to take you to the onboarding process."

"Director Wu, if I want to exchange my salary for cash, is that possible? My family has already signed me up to go to the countryside, and I will be leaving in five days. It's useless for me to work." Su Ruoli asked.

"Little girl, do you really want to sell your job? Can you make the decision? If you can, can you sell it to me? My daughter has just graduated and is worried about not being able to find a job so she has to go to the countryside. If you want to sell it, just sell it to me. Don't worry, the price is based on the current market price. How about I give you 50 kilograms of national food coupons, 20 industrial coupons, and 20 meters of cloth coupons? If it's okay, I'll go back and bring my daughter and the money with me." Director Wu said excitedly.

"Sure, Director Wu. I'll wait for you outside."

"Okay, my name is Wu Guoqiang. You don't have to call me Factory Director anymore. Just call me Uncle Wu or Uncle Guoqiang. I'll call you Miss Ruoli. Miss Ruoli, wait a minute. My uncle's house is just a few steps away. Please sit here for a while. I'll go home to get you the money and bring my daughter with me. Let's get all the formalities done today, okay?"

"Okay, Uncle Wu, go ahead. I'll sit on the bench at the door for a while."

Director Wu left in a hurry and returned a short while later with a round-faced, short-haired girl.

Su Ruoli didn't recognize the girl until she got closer, "Wu Yuanyuan, why is it you?"

"Su Ruoli, it's you who wants to sell your job. Why do you want to sell your job? If you don't have a job, you will have to go to the countryside." Wu Yuanyuan said.

"My family has already signed me up to go to the countryside, so there's no point in keeping my job. I might as well sell it for money so I can live a better life in the countryside," said Su Ruoli.

"That's right. I heard that life in the countryside is hard. I don't know if you can bear it if you go there. But I'm in Beijing. If you need anything, you can write to me and I will definitely help you." Wu Yuanyuan knew about Su Ruoli's family situation. Su Xiaoling was showing off at school every day, saying this and that about Su Ruoli.

So everyone knew about it.

Director Wu took the two girls to the finance department to complete the formalities.

After leaving the finance office, Director Wu handed the banknotes to Su Ruoli. "Ruoli, you've really helped your uncle a lot. The market price for this job is 1,000 yuan. Since it's office work, it's a bit more expensive. I'll give you 1,100 yuan. Also, take these banknotes. Don't let yourself get hurt when you get to the countryside. Just tell your uncle if you need anything."

Su Ruoli knew that the other person was just being polite and she couldn't take advantage of him.

After completing the formalities, Su Ruoli turned around and prepared to go home.

"Ruoli girl, let's go to the state-owned restaurant to have a meal before going back. Uncle is treating us today. Thank you for helping me." "Yes, Su Ruoli, let's go have a meal together," Wu Yuanyuan also echoed.

"No, Yuanyuan, you know that if I go back late, I will be waiting for stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots." Although I won't let them beat me again in the future, I still have to pretend to be pitiful and let others know what kind of people those scum are.

"Okay, then we'll see each other next time. You should go back soon. Bye!" Wu Yuanyuan waved her hand.

"Bye-Bye!"
