Chapter 354: Fun Fact
"Yueyue, what's that?"
Qin Ling went out, jumping with joy like a little bird out of the cage, pulling Zhong Yuemin's arm and jumping and jumping.
"Rock sugar gourd. Zhong Yuemin glanced at it, "Do you want to eat?"
"Uh-huh!" Qin Ling nodded vigorously.
"How did you sell it?"
"A dime. ”
"Why is it so expensive, I remember it wasn't seven points before?"
"Seven minutes was when it was cold, and now it's summer, it's different!"
"Isn't it just hawthorn fruit dipped in syrup?"
"You don't understand this, it's hot now, this rock sugar gourd has to be stored in the freezer, otherwise it has to melt, and it won't cost electricity when it's put in the freezer?"
"It's a bit of a truth, buy two for eight points!" Zhong Yuemin nodded, "If you want to sell it, there is still a sugar gourd seller on the other side of the street, I'll ask." ”
"Hey! There are still people stealing business for such a small book!" the peddler scolded, "Yes, I will sell you for eight cents!
Zhong Yuemin paid the money and said to Qin Ling: "You pick." ”
"Good!"
······
"Is it delicious?" Zhong Yuemin also asked with a sugar gourd in his hand.
"It's delicious, it's so sweet, it's so fragrant!"
Zhong Yuemin said strangely: "It's very fragrant, is it bad for you?"
"No, it's a natural sucrose fragrance!" Qin Ling reveled, "It's really delicious!"
"I don't know, I thought I was abusing you!" Zhong Yuemin said: "There will be delicious food later, you can take it a little!"
"Where is it, hurry up and love me!" Qin Ling said happily, "By the way, why did you talk to the person who sold sugar gourds for so long just now?"
"A bargain. ”
"You're so rich, why are you bargaining for a few cents?"
"It's not a matter of more money and less money, it's that the price he called is unreasonable!" Zhong Yuemin said, "It's obvious that you treat me as the wronged boss, I won't do this!"
"Haha, who would have thought that a person like you could fight with someone on the street for a few cents for a long time!" Qin Ling laughed, "It's so interesting!"
"What do you call a person like me?" Zhong Yuemin asked, "What kind of person am I?"
"You are ······" Qin Ling was stuck, "You are a great person, a creative person, and the founder of Wall-E Computer Company······"
"Why do you sound so twisted to me, these are all words spoken when the coffins of historical figures are closed, and I haven't reached the time to go to the history books, right?"
"No, no, I'm all talking nonsense. Qin Ling said in a panic, pointing his hand forward, "Is that popcorn?"
Zhong Yuemin looked at Qin Ling's figure running away, frowning and contemplating.
······
"Chen Deyou, you are a murderer! Where did you get the TV, refrigerator, and my passbook at home!"
The accountant of the factory explained to the workers for a long time, and only then did everyone understand that the wages could not be paid in full because of the arrears of the second radio factory.
Everyone was angry and scolded the bastards who defaulted on the payment of the second factory, but there was no other way but to accept the fact that life still had to go on.
Just as everyone was queuing up to receive the money, the factory director's wife, Gan Hongmei, rushed into the factory compound, carrying a rolling pin in her hand, and she was violent.
"Hongmei, what are you doing here?" Director Chen hurriedly ran out of the office and stopped his wife.
"The surname is Chen, if you don't make it clear to me today, I... I... I won't live today!" Gan Hongmei was so angry that she didn't know what to do, and suddenly threw herself at the feet of Director Chen, pulled his trouser leg, and cried.
"Mom, don't be like this, hurry up, my dad can't run away, it's too ugly for you to drag like this!" Director Chen's son is fourteen or fifteen years old, just in junior high school, pulling his fucking arm and trying to pull him up.
"Chen Hang, don't pull me, our family can't live this life!" Gan Hongmei cried with a handful of snot and tears.
The workers in the factory didn't know what was going on in the yard, so they ran out to see the excitement.
"Alas, is it that Director Chen has a style problem outside and was caught by his wife?" someone looked at the picture and spoke, speculating.
"Don't talk nonsense!" There is a maintenance of Director Chen, "Director Chen is not that kind of person! Director Chen is in the factory every day, and he doesn't even have the time to know how to make a family, how can he have the kung fu to make a life style problem!?"
"Haha, that's right!" After the accountant in the factory paid his salary, he also walked out and answered: "Director Chen and I spend more time together than with Hongmei's sister-in-law, I don't believe that anyone can see the stitches like this, even I don't know!"
"Hahaha......" everyone laughed.
Director Chen's family was still in a stalemate, Director Chen couldn't move when he was pulled on his trousers, his face was pale, "Hongmei, what's the matter, let's go back and talk about it!"
"Chen Deyou, don't want to mess around like before today!" Gan Hongmei's silver teeth clenched, "Anyway, I can't live this day, and I don't care if it affects or not!"
"Dad, you hurry up and explain to your mother, let's go back to dinner early!" Chen Hang persuaded his father.
Why Gan Hongmei came, Director Chen was clear, he had no choice, and he couldn't explain it, so he had to say nothing.
The factory accountant saw that Director Chen, who was usually able to speak well, and hurriedly stepped forward, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing here, making such a big move?"
"Accountant Xiaofang, you came just in time!" Gan Hongmei said to the accountant: "As soon as I got home today, I found that all the TVs and refrigerators at home were gone, and when I flipped through them again, I couldn't even save them!"
Accountant Xiaofang, you stay with Lao Chen every day, do you know where he took his things?"
Accountant Fang was puzzled: "Sister-in-law, I really don't know this! Besides, this can't be done by Director Chen, is it a thief at home?"
"If it's just that the refrigerator and TV are gone, I still wonder if it's a thief, but even the passbook is lost, then it must have been done by Chen Deyou!" Gan Hongmei glanced at Director Chen.
"Why is that?"
"Our family's passbook is worth a little money, and no one else knows except me and him!" Gan Hongmei said firmly: "Even if the thief shovels the skin of our house, it is impossible to find it!
Accountant Fang was suspicious and said to Director Chen: "Director, what is going on, you can tell your sister-in-law clearly, otherwise it won't matter if your sister-in-law has been sitting on the ground!"
"I took the stuff and the passbook. Director Chen squeezed out such a sentence, "If there is something to do, go home and talk about it!"
"Hey, hey, the surname Chen, you really took the things?!" Gan Hongmei cried, "You are a broken factory director, and you don't take money from home every year! I am frugal, and the little self-defense money I have saved is stolen by you! My God!"
The more Gan Hongmei spoke, the more sad she became, crying and grabbing the ground, which made everyone quite unbearable.
Everyone was talking about what Director Chen took the money from his family for, but Accountant Fang didn't say a word and looked at Director Chen in a daze.
"What do you mean by stealing?" said Director Chen angrily, "Can't I use the money at home?"
"The surname is Chen, you don't tell you to take it, and you don't explain the purpose clearly, is this called using it?" Gan Hongmei pulled her throat and said to the onlookers: "Big guy commenting on theory, is there such a thing!?"
"No!" is really not a big deal to watch the excitement.
"Listen, listen, the eyes of the masses are bright!" Gan Hongmei actually didn't read any books, those words were learned in the literacy class back then, she watched a few more model plays, and spoke one by one, "Chen Deyou, you say, did you hook up with a vixen outside?!"
As soon as Gan Hongmei's words came out, it caused an uproar in the crowd, even if some didn't believe it, but the words of the factory director's wife, they couldn't help but think about it.
"You!" Director Chen was so angry that he almost didn't take his back on it, gritted his teeth, and he only said one sentence, "Nonsense!"
"I'm messing around, then you can tell me where you got this money!
Director Chen gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.
Gan Hongmei simply got up from the ground, "You say!
"Sister-in-law!"
With a loud roar, Gan Hongmei was startled, and when she turned her head, she saw that Fang Accountant's tears were raining down.
"Accountant Xiaofang, what's wrong with you?" Gan Hongmei panicked, not knowing what the situation was.
Accountant Fang wiped away his tears, "Sister-in-law, the factory director has a hard time, let's go to the office and talk about it!"
"No!" Hearing that someone defended her husband, Gan Hongmei subconsciously refused, "Accountant Xiaofang, you don't have to help him speak! If you don't make this matter clear in front of the big guy today, I'll divorce you!"
Director Chen was furious, "Divorce, divorce, go! I've had enough of you, every day, money, money, money! I think you've fallen into the eyes of money!"
Director Chen's sudden outburst frightened Gan Hongmei, but she had a strong temperament, so she got up and pointed at Director Chen's nose and scolded: "Okay! You kill a thousand knives! Do you really want a divorce?" and then pulled her son and cried: "Hang, your father doesn't want you anymore! This is to leave us orphans and widows and run away with fox spirits!"
"What kind of mess?!" Seeing that the more she talked, the more unspeakable Director Chen became, and he was completely out of tricks, standing in the courtyard with his waist in his breath.
······
On the other side, Zhong Yuemin and Qin Ling were eating in their mouths, carrying all kinds of snacks in their hands, and their stomachs were a little stretched.
"Hey, why are there so many people gathered in front?" Qin Ling said, pointing to the place where the crowd gathered.
"Look at the excitement, it's either a husband and wife quarreling, or the neighborhood is arguing, there's nothing to see. Zhong Yuemin said casually, he didn't want to walk over, on such a hot day, people would be covered in stinky sweat when they were crowded.
"Oh, let's go take a look!" Qin Ling became excited, "I've never seen so many people get together and quarrel!"
Zhong Yuemin was still thinking about the information revealed in Qin Ling's words, and was pulled away by her.
Looking at the door, this is a very common street factory, and the wooden plaque reads Hongxing Street Electronic Instrument Factory.
At this time, the gate of the instrument factory was open, and many people ran in to see the excitement, and the yard was crowded!
Zhong Yuemin pulled Qin Ling, found someone casually and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The factory director stole the family's money, sold the TV and refrigerator, and even stole the gold and silver jewelry of his daughter-in-law!"
"Stealing your own family's money?" Zhong Yuemin said inexplicably, "What's the matter?
"No, I raised someone outside! I found a young girl, a hundred times more beautiful than the old woman at home!" said as if he had seen it with his own eyes, and he wished that he was the factory director.
"If you want to say, this man can't be too promising, and as soon as he has a promising, he will attract bees and butterflies!" and those who summed up the lesson, said to the heads of the onlookers.
Zhong Yuemin didn't believe the news of these melon-eating masses in his heart, what kind of brain does this have to be to make a seller of refrigerators and TVs to raise a junior child?
Seeing Qin Ling with relish, he simply pulled her to squeeze through the crowd and go to the innermost to see.
"Hey, don't squeeze it, my shoes are off!"
"I'm sorry, there are too many people!"
······
Zhong Yuemin squeezed into the circle, and saw four people standing in the middle, a middle-aged couple, who should be the protagonists, a child next to him, who should be their son, and a young man who didn't know what he was doing.
I saw that the young man said helplessly: "Sister-in-law, don't make trouble, I'll tell you the truth!"
"Xiao Fang!" said Director Chen.
"What's the matter, you still want to stop Accountant Xiaofang?" Gan Hongmei waited and said, "Accountant Xiaofang, you say, I'll see what he can do to you!"
"Factory director, just let me say it!" Accountant Fang cried, and said, "The refrigerator, TV, and passbook were all used by the factory director to pay wages to the workers!"
The worker standing on the side was shocked, "Accountant Fang, didn't you say that the money was paid for from the No. 2 Radio Factory?"
"That's the factory director who lied to us!" Accountant Fang cried, "The factory director didn't settle the payment at all! He used his own money to pay us wages!"
"Huh? ······"
The crowd roared and expressed great shock.
Gan Hongmei and Chen Hang both looked at their husbands and fathers in amazement, they really didn't expect such a result.
"Xiao Fang, okay, don't say it. Director Chen said loudly to the workers present: "It's late, everyone go home, it's time to cook, it's time to coax the children to coax the children!"
"Factory Director ······" An old worker in the factory screamed, but he didn't know what to say.
"Don't say anything, I'm the factory director, so I should be responsible for letting you get your salary, it's all your hard work!" Chen said: "The factory is running like this, it's all because I, the factory director, are unqualified, I will review it with you!"
As he spoke, Director Chen bent down and bowed to the employees to apologize.
"Factory director!" everyone cried.
In fact, the purpose of running this factory in the street is to let everyone have a job and support their families, and they have been barely able to survive by relying on the list of the second radio factory.
Because the factory really didn't have much oil and water, no one was willing to be the factory director, and after being empty for half a year, Chen Deyou, the youngest deputy director of the sub-district office, voluntarily applied to be transferred to be the factory director, and took up the burden of this worker who was only forty or fifty workers.
"Let's go. Zhong Yuemin saw that the excitement was almost over, so he took Qin Ling's hand and walked back.
