Qi Mengmeng kneaded the dough and waited for Gu Guizhi to come back at noon to roll the noodles. His hands were strong, so the noodles he made were chewier.
At noon, Xu's family smelled the delicious fried bean paste. Xu Daming felt that he couldn't eat the steamed buns made of two kinds of flour anymore. He discussed with Aunt Xu, "Mom, why don't we make some fried bean paste tonight?"
Before Aunt Xu could say anything, Li Lai Di said, "How can it not smell good if you put so much oil in it?"
Aunt Xu's face immediately drooped: "You saw that they put oil in it, Lai Di, Meng Meng treats you well, knowing that you are pregnant, she gave you dates and brown sugar, and she gave you a lot, who are you treating like this?"
Xu Daming looked at Li Lai Di and said, "Laidi, you and Deputy Colonel Gu's wife are having a quarrel."
"No." Li Lai Di quickly shook her head. Since she came to the staff quarters, she had never had any quarrels with anyone.
Xu Daming looked at Aunt Xu and said, "Mom, is there something I don't know?"
Aunt Xu didn't want to tell Xu Daming at first, but Li Laidie insisted on making trouble, so she had to say some things, so she told him what happened this morning.
Xu Daming understood Li Laidi. He also felt jealous when he saw Gu Guizhi being promoted so quickly.
"Forget it, let's just get along well in the future." Xu Daming looked at Li Laidi's belly and did not pursue the matter any further.
"Daming, I was thinking that if I had a job in a food factory, I could also support my family." Li Laidie looked aggrieved and spoke out her real thoughts.
"You can't go. Deputy Colonel Gu's wife found her job herself, not given by the army," Xu Daming shook his head. "Even if there is a job, I'm afraid it won't be your turn for a while."
"I know Mengmeng found this job, but if Mengmeng told me and I took the exam together, I could also go to work if I passed." Li Laidie insisted on what she thought. She felt that Qi Mengmeng was not thinking about her.
Aunt Xu then realized what she was thinking. She frowned and put down her chopsticks: "Li Lai Di, you are still pregnant, how can you go to work?"
Everyone in the staff quarters who went to work in the city rode bicycles, but the Xu family didn't have any bicycles. Besides, Li Lai Di had not been in good shape since she became pregnant, and she had been lying on the kang most of the time, so how could she have the energy to go to work?
"If I pass the exam, I can let Pan Di go to work for me, and then I'll give her some money." Li Lai Di said what was in her heart.
Aunt Xu was speechless. She didn't expect that Li Laidie was so generous. She looked at her son.
"Da Ming, you don't think so too, do you?"
Xu Daming shook his head: "Even if Lai Di took the exam, she might not pass. She hasn't read a book in many years."
Li Lai Di insisted: "But she didn't tell me."
Aunt Xu rolled her eyes. "You've always been in a bad state. What's the point of telling you this news? Who would have known that you didn't even take the exam and you were thinking of giving this job to your sister?"
Xu Daming was willing to bring Li Pandyi and Lin Jianjun together because he wanted Lin Jianjun to help him, not because he wanted Li Laidie to help Li Pandyi with work.
"Okay, let's forget about it. We should just get along well with our neighbors from now on. Let's eat." Xu Daming made the final decision. Aunt Xu and Li Laidie didn't say anything, but no one knew what they were thinking.
Number 1 came quickly, and Qi Mengmeng rode her bicycle to the food factory early in the morning.
She came very early. When she arrived at the food factory, the people from the personnel department had not arrived yet. She waited for ten minutes before Xie Hongdou came.
"Why are you here so early?" Xie Hongdou asked as he opened the door.
"Today is my first day at work. I want to ask if there are any dormitories in the factory. My home is quite far away. If I get off work too late at night, I think it would be safer to live in the dormitory."
Seeing that they were the only two people in the room, Qi Mengmeng directly stated her request.
"There should be another dormitory over there for the female workers. When you go down to get your work clothes, tell the head of the logistics department."
Xie Hongdou treats Qi Mengmeng very well.
Qi Mengmeng quickly asked, "Chief Xie, where was I assigned?"
"You were assigned to the bread group. You have eaten bread before, right?" Xie Hongdou asked.
"Yes." Qi Mengmeng nodded confidently. She even opened a cake shop, so how could she not have eaten bread?
"That's good. The bread group is a new production line. Although the chefs there have bad tempers, it's the best place." Xie Hongdou explained to Qi Mengmeng.
The chefs in the bread group were really difficult to deal with, and many of the people assigned to that group were sent back.
Among the ten people recruited into the factory this time, five were sent there, including the top three.
Originally, according to Qi Mengmeng's ranking, she should not have been assigned to the bread group, but Xie Hongdou really thought the bread group was good, so she assigned her there.
Qi Mengmeng guessed from Xie Hongdou's expression that being assigned to the bread group this time was not an easy thing, but she was very satisfied with the result.
Xie Hongdou handed the list of other people to the other newly arrived staff members, and she followed Qi Mengmeng to the logistics department.
Section Chief Yu from the Logistics Department saw Xie Hongdou and Qi Mengmeng coming together and thought they were Xie Hongdou's relatives, so he was very polite to them.
Section Chief Yu handed Qi Mengmeng her work clothes. When he learned that she wanted to live in the dormitory, he took out a notebook, searched for it, and took out a key from the drawer.
"Here is the key to Room 202. There is an empty bed inside. You can use that bed to rest when it is inconvenient for you to go back. It is almost time to go to work now, so you can go there at noon."
Qi Mengmeng expressed her gratitude to the section chief, then turned around to thank Xie Hongdou, and the two returned to the personnel department together.
Several other people who were hired have arrived one after another.
After everyone received their work clothes, Xie Hongdou asked the other two to take the five people to other groups, and she personally took the five people to the bread group.
As soon as you enter the bread group's factory, you can hear a loud voice shouting, "Did you wash your hands this morning?" "How do you crack eggs?"
Qin Nian's eyes lit up, and he asked Xie Hongdou, "Chief Xie, are we all following Master Li?"
"No." Xie Hongdou shook her head. Qin Nian frowned. Xie Hongdou continued, "It's not easy to be an apprentice to Master Li."
After these words were spoken, the people behind Xie Hongdou felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, and suddenly felt that this bread group might not be an easy job.
Xie Hongdou led the five people in and said to a middle-aged man, "Master Li, these are the five people assigned to the bread group. Do you think there is anyone suitable to be your apprentice?"
Everyone lined up and stood in a row. Qi Mengmeng's eyes fell on the man who was beating eggs by hand. She saw that the man knocked the eggshells into the basin and was trying to scoop them out with his hands. She frowned subconsciously.
Master Li noticed her immediately and followed her gaze.
