718: Feeling unworthy of myself
Chen Ci said coldly:
"Cry, it's your turn to cry—
By the way, there is something else I want to tell you. Captain Hu just came to me and asked me to take over your position as the chief steward of the forest farm. I didn’t want to agree at first because I’m about to give birth and I don’t have the energy to manage the canteen.
But there was no other way. Captain Hu said he would send you somewhere else. It would not be a good idea to leave this business without anyone to take over if you left, so I had to agree reluctantly.
So, is it worth it to have your hair pulled, your face scratched, and lose your job for a man who doesn't care about you at all?
Mrs. Xue covered her face and cried even harder.
"So, God is watching what people do. It's not that there will be no retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet. The retribution that is due will definitely come."
After saying that, Chen Ci stared at Mrs. Xue with both eyes, imprinting the image of Mrs. Xue crying bitterly in her mind, and then she stroked her belly and left with satisfaction.
Yu Zhengxian also hurried over, leaving Mrs. Xue alone kneeling on the kang and crying silently.
The next day, someone from the farm headquarters came to deliver the news that Director Wang had transferred Mrs. Xue to an agricultural company under the second division to feed horses, and asked Mrs. Xue to pack her luggage and report to the company.
When Mrs. Xue heard that she was assigned to feed the horses, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
She never dreamed that she would fall into such a big setback!
If she had known that this would be the outcome of hooking up with Yu Zhengxian, she would never have done it!
After the storm, that bastard was not affected at all. The couple continued to live their lives as usual, and Chen Ci even got a promotion.
Look at her again, what did she get?
She was beaten and humiliated in public, her reputation was ruined, and she was finally sent to an agricultural company to feed horses. She felt it was not worth it!
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret.
After crying for a while, she had to pack her luggage, wrapped her head and face with a scarf, got on the carriage, and set off to the agricultural company alone in a mess.
After Mrs. Xue left, Chen Ci, who was pregnant, officially became the chief steward of the forest farm.
Chen Ci had never thought that her fate would have such a turn. She also didn't know whether the promotion to the chief steward of the forest farm and the punishment that Mrs. Xue received could make up for the hurt caused to her by Yu Zhengxian's cheating.
But, it doesn’t matter anymore.
Let the past be the past, living in the present is the most important thing.
After this incident, Chen Ci seemed to have truly grown up and was no longer as weak as before. She felt that she should learn from the Yu family, and learn from Yu Xiaoye's spirit of not causing trouble but not being afraid of trouble, learn to be strong, and stop complaining about herself.
Therefore, after becoming the quartermaster, Chen Ci reorganized himself and began to devote himself to work. He no longer ran home as often as before and stayed in the cafeteria almost the whole day.
The affairs of the cafeteria are complicated, but also simple.
It's nothing more than arranging three meals a day for the forest farm employees. She has been working in the canteen for the past few months since she came to the forest farm. She is familiar with the daily meal arrangements and just needs to follow her previous habits.
Moreover, after this incident, Chen Ci was able to establish her authority by borrowing the power of others. After everyone knew that she was a friend of the director's wife, they all obeyed her and no one dared to talk back to her.
Yu Zhengxian followed Shen Ci like a little follower, working harder than before, fearing that he might not do anything well and bring trouble to his wife.
If his wife asked him to go out hunting, he would pick up his hunting rifle, call his dog and go into the mountains without saying a word. He would catch more and richer prey than before, as if the prey was not caught for the forest farm, but for his own family.
From then on, the food in the forest farm became better than before, and people could have meat almost every three to five days.
Originally, the living conditions in the forest farm were notoriously poor in the entire Mishan Farm. No one wanted to come here, and only those who made mistakes were forced to come here. However, after thirty years of ups and downs, it has suddenly transformed into the place with the best quality of life.
In the past, everyone looked down on the forest farm, but because they could eat much more meat than outside, they scrambled to come to the forest farm, which greatly boosted the morale of the entire forest farm staff.
For this, the bearded captain was very satisfied and felt that the replacement of the quartermaster was the right one.
It’s time to let Chen Ci be the chief steward!
However, Chen Ci was still not satisfied. She felt that the forest farm relied on the mountains for its food. Sometimes the food brought back from hunting in the mountains could not be eaten up, and sometimes there was nothing to eat. The amount was not uniform. So she simply fenced off an area around the canteen and put the pheasants, rabbits and other prey she caught alive in it. The rabbits could continue to give birth to rabbits and the pheasants could lay eggs. If she could not go into the mountains due to bad weather, she would catch the wild animals there to eat.
Later, I thought that I could go to the pig farm at the foot of the mountain and bring back some piglets to raise. I could use the leftover soup and water from the cafeteria to feed the pigs, and then I could slaughter the pigs when they grew up, which would be another source of income.
Although the wild game in the mountains is delicious, it cannot replace the rich taste of pork. It is also good to be able to eat pork.
As for the feed for raising pigs, it was not a problem either. The food allocated to each company canteen was fixed in quantity. The food for other companies was just enough, but their forest farm ate more meat and less food.
After a long time, a lot of surplus food was saved, which was just right to be used as feed.
So, they are fully capable of raising a piglet that was not part of the plan.
Chen Ci thought this was feasible, so he asked Yu Zhengxian to get the piglets.
Yu Zhengxian received an order from his leader and went down the mountain to the farm headquarters. He negotiated with the people at the pig farm for several days. The people at the pig farm became impatient and finally gave him a piglet that had just been weaned.
Yu Zhengxian successfully brought the piglet back, and he fully utilized his hands-on ability to build a sturdy, warm and wolf-proof pigpen for the canteen. The canteen officially started raising piglets.
In short, there was no progress in the relationship between Yu Zhengxian and Shen Ci, but the amazing thing was that they cooperated very well at work. They worked together to run the canteen very well.
----
The news of Chen Ci's promotion to chief steward of the forest farm soon reached the ears of Zhou Ziheng, the general manager.
Zhou Ziheng was surprised to learn that Chen Ci had become the chief steward.
How could a pregnant female educated youth who was about to give birth suddenly become the chief steward? Where did the original chief steward go?
Zhou Ziheng asked Director Wang of the second division about the situation.
Director Wang reported Mrs. Xue's misconduct in a rather obscure manner, without being too direct. After all, Director Wang did not fully understand the inside story. He only said that he had received reports from the masses that the former quartermaster had problems with his lifestyle and chaotic relationships between men and women in the forest farm, so he decided to remove him from his post and replace him with Chen Ci.
After hearing this explanation, Zhou Ziheng thought of the day when he took Yu Xiaoye to the forest farm. On the way back, Yu Xiaoye's eyes were rolling around, obviously planning something, but Yu Xiaoye didn't want to say it, so Zhou Ziheng didn't ask any further questions.
At this point, Zhou Ziheng vaguely guessed something. The former quartermaster had a chaotic relationship between men and women - probably between Yu Zhengxian and Shen Ci.
Given Yu Xiaoye's penchant for standing up for the weak, if he knew about this, he would not have stood idly by.
But what made Zhou Ziheng laugh was that the girl didn't even disturb him and handled the matter quietly on her own.
Doesn't this mean you don't treat him as one of your own?
Zhou Ziheng took this matter to heart and planned to ask about it in detail after returning home.
