"Mm, this is delicious, not bad."
"Your Aunt Liang studies all kinds of delicious food all day long. I chatted with her on Sundays and learned a lot. Haven't you noticed that my cooking skills have improved recently?"
After Ying's mother finished speaking with a smile, Ying Han and Ying's father quickly nodded in agreement.
They really didn't feel much improvement, mainly because they rarely ate at home recently.
Because Ying's mother doesn't cook much in the morning, she goes out to buy some breakfast.
They all eat at the company at noon. Ying Han often comes back, and Ying's father will also eat at the company when he is busy.
It’s not that the food my mother cooks is not delicious. If you miss the food cooked by Liang’s mother, Ying’s mother, who is a good cook, won’t be able to enjoy it.
After returning home from dinner, Ying Han directly called the person waiting for the bus, calling her small building.
I checked the time and it was just after eight o'clock, so I thought he was still there.
As a result, I called twice and found that he was not there.
The next day, when Ying Han arrived at the company, he found that the heads of construction teams from several districts had all come.
It seemed like the meeting lasted the entire morning, and there was quite a lot of discussion.
Ying Han didn't hear clearly what was said. It was only when he returned to the small building at night and saw Deng Chen that he knew what had happened.
They said they were going to cut staff, so that's the number.
"Actually, I've seen that the wages for casual migrant workers are cheap. As long as they're paid on time, the company can save half its money. That way, only management staff will be needed, and lower-level employees will definitely have to be laid off. Those grassroots employees will definitely disagree, and some will even make a fuss."
"Oh, so that's it." Times are changing, and things like this are inevitable. Although they are sad, they really can't say anything except sympathy.
Ying Han just realized these days that there aren't that many people getting laid off. They are just employees who are just trying to get by and fill in the numbers. The company is also very smart and will start with these people now.
Li Mingjie was rejected because he had been helping them visit those families and was busy discussing the sale of their houses with them.
I quit my job after taking a few leaves.
Li Mingjie didn't care. He said to Deng Chen with a smile, "Brother Chen, if you are laid off, then you are laid off. I will follow you from now on."
"Okay, come with me. Xiangdong's not in the sales office right now, so we're shorthanded. Come on over. I trust you to sell houses. I can keep an eye out for some nearby land and houses for me. If the deal goes through, you'll definitely get a share of the spoils. Also, if you can close the deal with the families over there, I'll give you a thousand yuan."
Li Mingjie was overjoyed. "Really, brother?"
"Of course, when did I ever panic?"
"Okay, for this thousand dollars, I will definitely work hard for Chen to get it done."
Deng Chen patted his shoulder, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable. He could only take care of one person, but not a group of people. Moreover, most of these laid-off people were indeed not working hard.
He would not be kind enough to invite these people to his construction site and give in to a group of people who eat for free.

"Hanhan, our shop is short of staff recently. We need people who can come to customers' homes to measure the dimensions and design the house. Before, Xiao Qin came here alone. Now sometimes I also come to customers' homes to measure the dimensions. If there are some that are not suitable, I have to design a plan for them on the spot. Measuring the house is not difficult, but we are in need of people who can both measure the dimensions and make plans."
"Sister Guihua, you can't be too tired. We still have Yangyang to take care of. If we are short of people, we can just hire someone."
Ying Han received a call from Li Guihua today and hurried to the store.
There are indeed quite a few people coming to the store to look at furniture.
"It's hard to recruit. I don't want to hire the young ones. I hired two before, but they took their measurements and stayed outside for a long time before coming back. I just let them go."
"Sister Guihua, you can charge 20 cents per trip, and if you close the deal, you can give them another 50 cents as commission. That way, you won't have to worry about them hanging around, unless they don't want to make money."
"That's true. But this will increase our costs."
Ying Han smiled and said, "It's a bit high, but it's also efficient."
Li Guihua smiled and said, "That's right, but this time, I plan to recruit two capable people. It doesn't matter if they are a little older. As long as they can get the job done, it's fine."
"Well, Sister Guihua, you arrange it."
After they finished talking about work, Li Guihua pulled Ying Han aside and said, "Hanhan, guess how many points Yangyang scored in the final exam this time?"
Seeing the expression on Ying Han Li Guihua's face, she must have done well in the exam. "Isn't she the first in the class?"
Li Guihua smiled and shook her head. "She's number one in the whole grade, Hanhan. You don't know how pleased I was when I saw the result. I usually go home late, so the aunt in the courtyard helps take care of her. She studies on her own at home, and I haven't really supervised her."
"Sister Guihua, that's great. This is great. Yangyang will make you proud. We must train him well."
"Yeah, that's what I thought. Seeing my daughter studying so hard makes me so happy. I'm thinking of waiting until the end of the year to see if there are any houses for sale nearby. I'm planning to sell one. A few days ago, I asked my landlord about this house, and she said she doesn't plan to sell it."
"Sister Guihua, why don't you choose an apartment in the newly built residential complex?"
"No, I just want to buy an apartment in the neighborhood where I live now. There's a good middle school there, and I'm waiting for Yangyang to graduate from elementary school so he can go there."
"Sister Guihua, just think for yourself. I know someone who knows a lot about real estate transactions in City A. I'll ask him to help you find out later."
"Okay, thank you. I'm in great shape thanks to your help. You may not know that Liu Changfeng came to see me a few days ago."
Ying Han was stunned. "He came to see you? Did he give you any trouble?"
"No, he gave me 200 yuan and said it was child support for Yangyang. He's going to another city and might not come back for a year or two. I saw that he looked much more haggard. He no longer has the high spirits he used to have."
"Sister Guihua, are you okay?"
"Hey, don't worry about me. I'm not soft-hearted, I just didn't expect us to end up like this. Every time I see him now, I think of what happened between him and that woman, and the disgust in my heart will never go away." Li Guihua finished speaking, and before Ying Han could comfort her, she felt relieved. She smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about her. Hanhan, do you think I can buy a house with the 5,000 yuan I have?"
"Sister Guihua, don't worry about buying it. You are the big boss of the store now. The dividends at the end of the year can buy two houses."
Li Guihua smiled and said, "I just don't know for sure."
She had never thought that one day she would be able to buy her own house through her own efforts.
I used to think that once I got married, my man was everything to me.
After going through all this, she discovered that she was also very capable and excellent.
She is no longer the silly rural girl Li Guihua.
In two years, I will be a city dweller with a diploma.
Through her own efforts, she gave her daughter a good life.
Although life has regrets, most of it is beautiful, and that is enough.
