The time came to May 16th, which was two days longer than the original end time.

Although two days couldn't change anything, since someone had brought it up before, she would comply with everyone's request.

"Aihua, did Teacher Song say when to announce which of us can stay?"

Today is the last day. Since this morning, no one has been in the mood to continue practicing. They just want to quickly find out whether they have passed and whether they can stay.

"Please be patient, Fu Yu will come over to announce the list later."

"What if we're not selected? We even spent fifty cents each to buy an embroidery frame."

"Fifty cents is nothing. If I don't get selected, I won't be able to paste any matchboxes this month, and the loss will be several dollars, even ten dollars."

"That's true. Although it hasn't been announced yet, I already know the result. I am the one that Teacher Song said has no talent for embroidery."

"Don't be so discouraged, what if you are selected?"

“The chances are almost zero.”

"It's better to know now that we don't have the talent than not giving us the chance to try."

"Indeed, I tried and failed, so I accepted my fate."

Amid everyone's discussions, Song Fuyu entered the room with the list.

Seeing her come in, the room instantly became silent. Everyone sitting below looked up at her, waiting for her to announce the result.

"It looks like everyone is ready."

"But before announcing the list, I have a few words to say to you all."

"You should know that it is impossible for everyone to be selected. The people on this list are those who I think can make money by embroidering here, at least those who can make more than ten yuan a month. As for those who can't make ten yuan, you don't have to be sad. Go back and help the match factory paste matchboxes. The income will be better than here."

"And the point you are most concerned about is who owns your embroidery frames for those who didn't stay."

"I know everyone spent fifty cents to order it, and this money will not be wasted. Later, whether your name is on the list or not, as long as your embroidery frame is not obviously damaged, you can go to Mrs. Liu to get the embroidery frame in exchange for fifty cents. Those who don't want to exchange can choose to take the embroidery frame home, and I won't force you to do that."

When they heard that the embroidery frames would be recycled, the expressions of some people who thought they had no hope of being selected instantly improved a lot.

"Okay, now I'll start announcing the names of the people who will stay."

"Wang Lu, Zheng Ruyi, Bai Xiaocui... Huang Ying, the people who can stay and continue to work are the above twenty-two people."

"As for those who think they are eligible but were not selected, you can come to me privately later."

"Thank you all for your support of our extraordinary studio this month. Now I can pack up and go home."

After the announcement, most of the eliminated people did not come to her, but went directly to Liu Aihua to sell embroidery frames. Two sisters-in-law came to her, and after she explained the reason, they agreed and did not entangle.

"Teacher Song, I want to ask why I was eliminated."

When most people had left, Wang Mengzhen walked over to Song Fuyu and asked.

She knew that her ability was not as good as the top few, but it should not be so bad that she would be eliminated directly. She just compared the embroidery works of several selected people, and she felt that their level was about the same as hers.

"Come out with me for a moment."

Wang Mengzhen was indeed the person who had troubled her the longest.

Based on her skills, she could stay. Based on her personality...it wasn't just that Wu Danniu didn't like getting along with her, she also didn't like this kind of people very much.

Working every day is tiring enough, and having to digest other people's negative energy will only add to the inner pain of an already tired body.

In the past, she would choose to stay away from such people.

"Let me be honest with you. I didn't choose to eliminate you because of your abilities."

"Why is that?"

"I haven't had any disagreements with anyone in the past month. I haven't even had a quarrel or two with anyone."

She really couldn't figure out what she had done wrong.

"You really haven't had any conflicts with other people, but you keep complaining about your husband, mother-in-law, and children to others every day... Although you didn't say anything bad about your neighbors, I have more or less heard some of your words."

"You are such a person who speaks without restraint and cannot see any good in others. You are not suitable to work in a team. I am worried that it won't be long before you offend everyone in the studio."

"If this happens, not only will other people be uncomfortable, but you may also be the most unhappy person."

She did not choose to beat around the bush with Wang Mengzhen.

During this month, a big part of the reason why no one directly stood up to criticize her was that everyone didn't want to miss this opportunity because of an argument.

"I..."

Wang Mengzhen opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

She is aware of this shortcoming, and her husband Liu Jun has told her before that if she does not change, she may end up without any friends around her.

She also wanted to change, but every time she had a great time chatting with everyone, some words came out of her mouth without thinking.

"Teacher Song, can you give me another chance? Should I change my career? I will really change this time."

"Although I don't have a great talent for embroidery, I will work hard and try to catch up with those ahead of me. I really like it..."

Wang Mengzhen begged softly with tears in her eyes.

"Can you read?"

“Learning to read, I studied till the fourth grade.”

"I'll give you two days to write down five good qualities of each of your family members and two of your neighbors on a piece of paper and hand it in to me next Monday."

"If I find out what happened before, I won't keep you here any longer."

"Okay! I promise I'll change!"
