The 30th day of being eavesdropped
It is said that people feel refreshed when they encounter good things. Gu Jinshui was very energetic when he woke up in the morning.
He put on his shoes, picked up the snuff bottle he got yesterday, and said to Liang Ying: "Wife, I'll leave Daya's job to you."
"Okay, don't worry about it."
Liang Ying was very confident.
Job opportunities in the city are hard to come by, but it also depends on whether there is a source of information. For example, Liang Ying worked in the factory and occasionally heard news that someone was going to sell their job.
This time, she just happened to catch such an opportunity. A relative of the eldest sister in the factory wanted to sell her job. Liang Ying secretly kept it in mind, and it happened to come in handy.
As soon as Liang Ying got to work, she went to find Sister Deng in the third workshop while there were not many people.
"Sister, you said before that your cousin's family wanted to sell the job in the clothing factory. Has the job been sold?"
Sister Deng was wondering why Liang Ying came to her, and when she heard about this, she hurriedly said, "No, you want to buy it. Doesn't your family have enough jobs?"
Liang Ying took out a few candies from her pocket and stuffed them into Sister Deng's pockets. "My family has enough, but isn't this a coincidence? My relative and granddaughter are looking for a job, so I come to trouble you. If you can help to make the connection, you will definitely benefit from it later."
Sister Deng held the candy in her hand, and the smile on her face became much more genuine.
She immediately said, "This is easy to do. Since he is your relative, he is one of us. You don't have to be polite. You wait for me after work today and we can go there together. However, we have to make an agreement in advance. This job is not cheap. It will cost at least 500 or 600 yuan."
"We all know this. If it is not enough, the relatives can chip in a little."
Liang Ying did not show off her wealth, but pretended to be poor.
Sister Deng thought about it and estimated that it would be difficult for her family to get the money, but this matter was not their own business after all, so she was too lazy to worry about it.
After work, Sister Deng took Liang Ying to find her cousin.
Her cousin has three sons. Sister Deng said, "In the past, everyone envied her because she had so many sons. They were capable of handling affairs and were not afraid of being bullied. But when it came time for these sons to get married and have children, they were at a loss. There were only two rooms for the whole family, so how could they sleep comfortably? It would be fine if they didn't have a wife, but if they did, which girl would be willing to squeeze into the room? Besides, these sons don't have proper jobs. They all do odd jobs to make money. My cousin is going to retire, so this job is vacant. No one of the other sons agreed to take the job, so they had to sell the job."
"Who said it wasn't? Otherwise, all these sons are debtors."
Liang Ying knew that there were only two daughters in the family of Deng Dajie, so she agreed, "Like your two daughters, they are really blessed. They all have jobs, find good partners, and give you a lot of filial piety during the holidays."
Deng Dajie smiled and felt much more comfortable.
Of course, in the past, when people saw that there were only two daughters in her family, they would say behind her back that she would have no one to take care of her when she got old. But now, her two daughters are married to people nearby, and they come to her house every now and then to give her gifts. The sons-in-law are also considerate. Deng Dajie and her husband live a very comfortable life.
"We're here."
Deng Dajie led Liang Ying to a large compound.
The house was in the second courtyard, in the east wing, and the area was not big. As soon as you entered the house, you could see the house was full of things, and people felt cramped when walking in it.
"Third sister, is Third sister home?"
Sister Deng also bought some fruit on the way. Although it was cheap, she did not lose her manners.
Her cousin came out, doing some work, making shoe soles, "Hey, Mei Zi, why are you here? Why are you bringing things?"
Sister Deng smiled and pointed at Liang Ying, "Third sister, didn't you want to sell your job before? A colleague's relative wants to buy it, so I brought it to you. You two can discuss it."
When her cousin heard about this, she became much more enthusiastic. She put down the shoe soles, took the kettle and poured two cups of water for Sister Deng and Liang Ying, "What price is this comrade going to offer?" "
My relative's family is not rich, they are from the countryside. I think they can only offer four hundred and eighty."
Liang Ying saw that the cup was dirty and covered with grease, so she picked up the cup, touched it with her lips and put it down.
My cousin was stunned for a moment, and the enthusiasm on her face faded a lot. "Please write it down if four hundred and eight is less. It's so hard to find a job in the city now, and the work in this clothing factory is easy, without wind and sun, and I can earn thirty or forty yuan a month. If I wasn't in urgent need of money, I wouldn't be willing to sell this job."
"Sister, I know you really want to sell your job, but we also have difficulties here. Rural people save very little money throughout the year, and this money has emptied our family's coffers."
Liang Ying sighed, "Besides, I've heard that your factory's performance is not good. Thirty or forty yuan is the salary for individual months. Normally, it's in the early twenties. The food allowance and bonuses are also small. If others want to buy a job, they will hesitate when they see this salary."
Liang Ying got to the point.
Deng Mei's cousin's factory is a small one, with only a few dozen people and low wages. Otherwise, this job would not have been sold for so long.
If she could get thirty or forty yuan a month, she would have sold the job long ago.
Seeing the embarrassed and hesitant look on her cousin Deng Zhu's face, Deng Mei hurriedly said, "Liang Ying, that's not what you mean. The money is a little too little after all. Why don't you increase it a little?"
"Mom, is there anyone who wants to buy the job?"
A dark-faced man came in from outside. It was still cold in February. He wore a thin cotton jacket with his arms open, and beads of sweat dripped down his face.
"Danniu, why are you back?" Deng Zhu asked in surprise, "Have you eaten?"
"I ate, ate."
Daniu waved his hand and said.
His eyes fell on Liang Ying, "You want to buy a job?"
"It's my relative." Liang Ying said, she hesitated, "But this may not be possible."
"Why not?" Daniu immediately became anxious.
Deng Zhu's face darkened and he scolded, "This has nothing to do with you, I'm talking to someone!"
"Mom, this matter really can't be delayed. Hongyan's mother said that if you can't come up with the money, let our marriage be cancelled!"
Daniu was anxious and looked at his mother.
Deng Zhu was furious. He was negotiating here, and this stupid son was still holding him back.
Liang Ying was surprisingly reasonable at this time, "Big sister, I think we can only add another 100 at most, 580 at most. This 100 is a loan from my relatives, I really can't give more. If you agree, we will do it tomorrow, if you don't agree, forget it."
Liang Ying was about to stand up.
Deng Lan hurriedly held her back and winked at Deng Zhu, "Cousin, please say something about this."
"Add another twenty." Deng Zhu's lips moved, but he couldn't resist his son's gaze and gave in.
Liang Ying was silent for a moment, glanced at Deng Lan, and said, "Forget it. For the sake of Sister Deng, I'll pay the twenty out of my own pocket. After all, it's for both of us to get what we want."
Sister Deng was particularly pleased.
She liked Liang Ying more and more, and said to Deng Lan: "Third sister, six hundred is more than enough, this is the price on the market, what do you think?"
"Bring her here the day after tomorrow morning, I will take her to the factory to handle the handover, and I will pay you six hundred yuan, not a cent less." Deng Lan forced a smile, nodded, and said.
She was in a complicated mood, happy but also a little confused.
"Of course, will we meet at the factory or at your house?"
Liang Ying's smile became more and more brilliant.
Deng Lan said: "Come to our house, your relative can use a sewing machine, right?"
"Yes, but there is something wrong with his legs and feet." Liang Ying did not hide it from Deng Lan, and it was impossible to hide such a thing, so it was better to tell it directly.
Deng Lan really didn't worry about it. "It's okay to have a problem with your legs and feet. If you can't do it, you can still cut threads and make packages."
It really wasn't a big problem.
Liang Ying breathed a sigh of relief. This matter was almost certain.
After leaving the yard, Liang Ying insisted on taking Deng Mei to eat a bowl of dumplings. She paid for the meal and bought four dumplings for Deng Mei to take back to express her condolences.
Deng Mei was a little spoiled.
She said, "How can this be possible? I just said a few words, but you treated me to dumplings and bought me steamed buns. How can I accept this?"
"Just take it, sister. I'm telling you something from the bottom of my heart. You really don't know how much you've helped me. You also heard what I said at your sister's house just now." Liang Ying sighed and frowned, "The child is physically disabled, and it's really inappropriate for her to find a partner in the countryside. She's not even married yet, but you're treating her like a donkey. If this job doesn't work out, I don't know what will happen to the child in the future. Now it's good. With this job, she can stay in the city and it's easier to find a partner."
"This is how love works. I wonder who would be willing to spend so much money to buy a job for a girl."
Deng Mei couldn't help but sigh when she heard this: "Others say you are a bad person, but I think it's all nonsense. You care so much about your relatives' children, your heart is better than anyone else's."
"We are all women and we have children, so let's put ourselves in their shoes."
Liang Ying remained calm: "Who in the factory framed me?"
"It was Lin Lianhua and Bai Xiaoyan and the others. But don't worry, I'll talk to them for you later." Sister Deng said, patting her chest.
Liang Ying smiled and said, "Then I have to thank you first. You are fair, no wonder you were promoted to team leader. By the way, Sister Deng, your workshop leader has not been selected yet?"
Sister Deng said, "Well, this matter is very difficult. They are all thorns. No one is suitable. But if we talk about hard work, few are hardworking."
Sister Deng had a headache when she talked about this.
Their three workshops are not as good as Liang Ying's workshop. Liang Ying's workshop is mostly young women, who are good at face and hardworking. The production results every quarter are very gratifying, and they work hard.
Her workshop is full of aunts in their 40s and 50s. At this age, they don't have the heart to compete for honors. They come to work with work every day, and make clothes for their grandchildren when they have time. But don't say they are not good at work, but they are very good at grabbing credit. This time, two people fought over the succession of the team leader, and they even formed cliques.
Sister Deng really has ten pairs of hands, but she can't handle this group of troublemakers.
Liang Ying smiled and said, "Then you can consider sending someone from other groups. The factory didn't say no."
After she said this, she looked at her watch and said, "Oh, it's already this late. I have to go home so that my daughter won't miss me. See you tomorrow, sister."
Sister Deng agreed subconsciously and watched her leave in a hurry. Suddenly, an idea came to her mind.
That's right.
Find someone else. That way, no one will be offended!
Sister Deng thought of what Liang Ying had just said and smiled thoughtfully.
Liang Ying is still a bit thoughtful.
But being thoughtful is good, just in time to deal with those troublemakers!
