Chapter 13: Contradictions

We were ready, and the workers came over for dinner.

Inside each basin is a large spoon. These workers came over with rice jars to serve their own food. The rice jar was like a mountain, and the people laughed loudly as they ate. There was a lot of work, I was tired and sweaty, and I felt a sense of accomplishment when I saw people outside eating.

I whispered, "That's a lot of people! ”

"There are still a lot of people in winter, huh? The workers outside are doing all the work indoors, and in the summer, it will be twice as much. It's very easy today, it's steaming rice, steaming steamed buns once every two days, that's tiring! Sister Liu said.

I didn't speak, and at that time there were no machines to make noodles, everything was manpower, and I was tired and panicked when I thought about it.

At this time, a stir-fry chef just now shouted: "You two have packed up the rest, let's go to dinner!" ”

They washed their hands, laughed and laughed, and at the same time also served the meal, and went to another small room to eat together, they ate the same as the workers, but in addition fried a hot and sour cabbage, which was considered a small stove.

Sister Liu and I are left here to clean up the mess, we need to clean up the remaining boards, and the remaining pieces of wood are also cleaned up, and we have to mop the floor to clean, which is really a lot of work.

At that time, I was a little unhappy, why did so many jobs be done by the two of us, and they swaggered to eat, and their attitudes were so bad, why was it so unfair?

But thinking that I was here to try the job, it was not easy to offend people, and Sister Liu didn't feel wrong at all, so I endured it. Fortunately, there is also a harvest, that is, those vegetable leaves thrown to the ground, I looked at the water and the spirit is not bad, so I said to Sister Liu: "This vegetable leaf is so unwanted?" ”

"It's okay, just throw it away."

"It's a shame for me to look at it. I'll take it home and chop it up to get some pickles. ”

"That's fine." Sister Liu smiled: "I didn't expect it, let's clean it up." If you have leftovers from the future dishes, you can also take them home and save some money on side dishes. ”

The two of us collected all the edible leaves on the ground, and each of us divided a handful, which was almost enough to make a small pot of pickles.

Sister Liu smiled at me while working: "What is the relationship between you and Director Chen?" He's been working here for years, but he's never asked anyone to help him find a job. Is it a relative? ”

I was stunned for a moment, and then said, "No, we met occasionally, and he looked at my leg injury before taking care of it." ”

"Are you dealing with someone?" Sister Liu looked at me with a smile.

I hurriedly waved my hand: "No, really not, I just met him!" He is the leader, I am a miscellaneous person, how can it be the same? ”

Sister Liu laughed; "I'm just kidding, I see how scared you like this. Director Chen's family is all officials! ”

Thinking of his style, he is indeed different from ordinary people. However, the meaning of Sister Liu's words is that I am not worthy of him, and I am still very sad, but I know that she is not malicious, so I will forget it.

When I finally finished it, my tired arms were weak, and it was harder than my previous life to watch the stall by myself, and the pay was not proportional to the gain.

The food was almost eaten by the worker and it was cold, Sister Liu and I put a little pot bottom, and the food was not enough, but the two of us didn't say anything, and sat down after dividing the meal, and now we can barely cushion our stomachs, let's go home and eat again.

Before he had eaten two bites, someone outside shouted, "Here comes the wood!" Let's move the wood! ”

At this time, the cooks had just finished eating, and they were laughing and walking out, and when they heard the shouting, one of them said to the two of us, "Don't eat yet, move the wood first." We've got to go on a lunch break, you guys come in. ”

Speaking very easily, I immediately frowned.

Sister Liu hurriedly swallowed the food in her mouth and stood up to leave.

I pressed her arm and looked at them, "We just finished cleaning the cafeteria, and we haven't eaten yet." ”

These people were stunned for a moment, and the person at the head smiled and said, "If you don't move, do you want us to move?" ”

"Aren't you canteen workers? Why do we women have to do all the work? I looked at him coldly.

Sister Liu pulled me: "Forget it, let's do it!" It'll be done in a moment. ”

"Why are we doing it?" I looked at her.

The people all laughed: "Why? Because we are regular workers, you are temporary workers! That's a good reason, right? ”

Regular workers have job titles, and even if they are lazy and slippery, they are unlikely to be laid off, but temporary workers, even if they contribute the most in the unit, have to do dirty work, but they will still be fired at any time.

I finally know why they dare to bully Sister Liu so blatantly. Because they are formal.

"If I don't do it, I'll either do it together, or I won't do it at all."

The young man threw away the apron on his body, and his eyes widened: "You are a newcomer, it is not certain whether you can stay or not, what are you arrogant?" Hurry up and get to work! ”

The way he looks reminds me of my uncle.

I said coldly: "Just like you said, it's not certain whether I can stay or not, why should I listen to you?" Even if the serfs work for the landlords, they have to let people eat, and when you have eaten and drunk enough, you are going to rest, and we have not eaten, why do you have to move wood? If you don't move so much wood, let us women do it, are you embarrassed to get a high salary? ”

Several people were all stunned, and the man shouted: "We are not driven by you with high wages, use you to meddle in your affairs?" I'm going to tell the director, I can't use you! ”

Sister Liu saw that the matter was getting bigger, and hurriedly said: "Don't be angry, I'll get it now, you must not hurt your anger because of this little thing." Isn't it just to get some wood? ”

I watched Sister Liu stand up and walk to the door, shaking her head helplessly, it is really helpless for people to live in this world.

Chef pointed at me and said; "Don't eat your food, we must not use you, you go home!"

I sneered: "Even if you don't use me, I can't work all morning in vain, I have to eat, what's the matter, are you going to smash my rice bowl?" ”

"Look at whether I dare to smash it!" He rushed over and was about to snatch my bowl.

I grabbed the bowl and hid behind me, his hand almost caught me in front of me, and he was so frightened that he quickly stopped. I was also shocked, if a young man in his twenties was really caught, it was estimated that something would happen.

A sudden coaxing voice came from behind him: "Oops! Brother Qiang, what are you doing? Attracted to this woman? ”

Brother Qiang's eyes were red, and he turned around and shouted, "Shut up!" What kind of eyes do you have! How could I be tempted by this village girl! ”

He was very angry, but everyone else was hippie and smiling: "Brother Qiang, we all saw that you stretched out your hand, and we still don't admit it!" ”

The young man turned around angrily and shouted, "Shut up, all of you!" Silly and earthy stupid girl, Lao Tzu is a city man with a formal job! Even if she is a bachelor for the rest of her life, I don't want her to be virtuous! ”

Several people continued to tease him on the side.

That strong brother was even more annoyed with me, and turned his head to glare at me: "Don't seduce me, I'm not interested in you!" ”

Sister Liu nervously grabbed me, for fear that we would make a big fuss.

I sneered: "Just put your heart in your stomach, I know that you are from the city, I am from the village, you naturally look down on me, but although I am not in good condition, I will not have any thoughts about a lazy man who pushes a little work to others." ”

The ridicule of those people became even more obvious: "Brother Qiang, you are not disliked. ”

The man gritted his teeth and said, "Don't talk nonsense, you two hurry up and get wood!" ”

I said coldly, "Did you open this canteen?" If not, why do we have to listen to you? I'm not going! ”

"I, Song Deqiang, have never seen you like this, I must teach you a good lesson!" As he spoke, he grabbed the chopsticks on the table and threw them at me. Not to be outdone, I picked up the broom next to me and was about to fight him.

In my previous life, I was beaten less, and when I saw a man beating a woman, I couldn't help but blow up my hair.

The rest of the people saw that they were really going to fight, so they hurriedly came over to stop him, and the more they stopped this guy, the more arrogant they became, shouting that they were going to hit me, and they kept raising their legs to kick me, and the other side muttered.

Not to be outdone, I scolded him.

Sister Liu was so anxious that she stopped me: "Nizi, don't fight, it's not a big deal, don't hurt your anger!" ”

"I can't let him bully casually, such a big person knows how to beat women, it's really contemptible!"

Song Deqiang pulled his neck and shouted: "Let it go, otherwise I'm welcome!" ”

"What is this for?" While there was a commotion, someone at the door walked in with a shout.

Song Deqiang hurriedly withdrew his hand, it turned out that Chen Jian came in hurriedly from outside, and behind him was Wang Dabao.

When Sister Liu saw him come in, she hurriedly said, "We are about to get wood." Director, it's really nothing. ”

Song Deqiang blushed, pointed at me and shouted: "Director, she doesn't work hard, she dares to make trouble on the first day she comes, she is lazy and arrogant, such a person can't be kept, let's let her go quickly!" ”

Chen Jian looked in my direction and looked at me with an inquiring look.

"I didn't make trouble." I calmed down for a while before saying: "Sister Liu and I contribute the most when cooking, a few of them are just lazy and slippery, let the two of us do all the work, go to eat by ourselves, we clean up the kitchen, just finished busy, we didn't eat, and let us get wood!" Ignoring Sister Liu's obstruction, I told the matter one by one: "Aren't temporary workers human?" This is a new society, everyone is equal, why do you bully us when you are a regular worker? ”

Several people argued anxiously: "Look at her attitude!" Director, she's just stirring up trouble, we're not lazy! ”

"That's right, our canteen has always been fine, and as soon as she came, she started fighting, and such a person can't ask for it." Song Deqiang stared at me, and it was estimated that if Director Chen hadn't done it, he would have beaten me.
