Chapter Eighty-Eight: Go to Work
Although Shang Xiaohe has never tasted this tea, at the end of each year, Chen Yougui will buy this brand of tea to give to the leaders, and when he comes back, he always has to feel distressed for a long time, needless to say that this tea must be very precious.
"It's okay, it's okay, Mrs. Chen, you can take it, I haven't thanked you for finding me such a good job.
In fact, this tea was originally planned to be given to the foreman of the factory to let them open the net, who knew that they didn't even see each other, so they had to return it to the owner of the store, but this tea couldn't be returned, and there were no decent gifts at home, so I had to bring it to see you, you must not see outside. ”
Huang Ma said honestly.
Shang Xia didn't speak, took a sip of the tea in the cup, and put his mind at ease.
As she imagined, Huang Biao's mother was the most common woman in this era, honest, diligent, and respectable.
Shang Xiaohe has such a "colleague", and she saves herself from worrying.
"Then you're welcome."
After hearing this, Shang Xiaohe no longer shirked, and accepted it happily.
A few people chatted a little and began to talk about the meeting.
"Aunt Huang, do you think the salary of eight hundred a month, not including food and housing, is it appropriate?"
"Eight hundred?"
When the words fell, Huang Ma exclaimed.
That's more than double the wages in the factory!
"You don't think it's appropriate?"
Seeing her reaction so much, Shang Xia asked again.
"No, no, I'm already satisfied with the price."
Huang's mother responded urgently.
"Okay, what do you think, how about setting off the day after tomorrow?"
This has just been laid off, and it has only been a few days since she was able to find a job again, and Huang's mother felt that this news was a little untrue for a while.
"You can arrange it."
"Then let's go back and prepare first, and come back the day after tomorrow, right."
Shang Xia said, glancing at Shang Xiaohe beside him.
"Mrs. Huang, this is for you."
Looking at the red envelope that Shang Xiaohe suddenly handed over, Huang's mother had a trace of doubt on her face.
"This is not the Chinese New Year, what to do with red envelopes? Besides, even if it's the New Year, we are all the same generation, and it's not appropriate for you to give me red envelopes! ”
"This is your first month to go to work, and we discussed it in the first month, give half of the money first, and then give the other half to you at the end of the month, and you can accept it!"
Hearing the salary, Huang's mother accepted it with peace of mind, and a warmth surged in her heart.
Although these four hundred yuan may not seem like much, at this time, it solves her urgent need.
With these 400 yuan, she is more and more confident that she can make up for her daughter's tuition and textbook fees.
……
On the day of departure, Shang Xia and Huang Biao also followed.
When they arrived in Yiwu, they helped take care of the house, cleaned up the shops, and waited for them to almost settle down, and then the two left.
When they returned to the county, it was already afternoon, and the two walked to the street entrance to separate.
"Shang Xia, if you need help in the future, just say it."
Just after walking a few steps, Huang Biao suddenly ran back and said to Shang Xia seriously.
Although there was not a word of thanks in these words, Shang Xia understood his intentions in his heart.
She didn't speak, just nodded.
There are only three days left for the holiday, and what should be busy is now considered busy.
Shang Xia began to pick up his homework again, and after delaying so much time, he had to make up for it now.
Since she tied for first place with Lin Ran in this final exam, she has to work harder to compare him.
Shang Xiaohe was not there, Chen Yougui didn't show any discomfort, but his usual picky attitude towards Shang Xiaohe has now shifted to Shang Xia.
Shang Xiaohe, on the other hand, made several phone calls a day.
She had never been to such a prosperous area, and she was a little unaccustomed to it, so as soon as she called, she would call for two hours.
Tell me what I saw today, talk about what I encountered today, how much money I made, which customers didn't get along well for the first time but placed a big order, which customers smiled as soon as they came in, and after a big talk, there was no news behind the result.
Shang Xia was a little relieved when he heard her broken thoughts, at least it was much better than staying at home and living a constant life.
Early in the morning before going to school, Shang Xia received a call from Mo Rou, and the two made an appointment to go shopping together to buy things to use when they went to school.
"Shang Xia!"
As soon as she arrived at the street where she had agreed to meet, Shang Xia watched from afar as someone waved at her.
"Mo Rou, why are you here so early?"
Shang Xia trotted over and chatted with her as he walked.
"My mom went to work, so she stopped by."
Mo Rou said with a smile, obviously in a good mood, but it is also said that it would be strange if she could be born in such a warm family, and she would be in a bad mood.
Shang Xia was silent, and he was really envious in his heart.
Seeing that she was silent, Mo Rou seemed to suddenly remember something, suddenly covered her mouth, and said to Ai Ai, "I'm sorry, Shang Xia, I almost forgot ......"
Shang Xia was confused for a while, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay."
Mo Rou hurriedly waved her hand and said.
Seeing her like this, Shang Xia became even more curious, and was determined to ask why.
"Why, what the hell is going on? I can see it, you girl, you must be thinking something! ”
Shang Xia stretched out his finger and pushed her forehead, with an expression that I had already seen through you.
"Then I said, you can't be angry!" Seeing that she couldn't hide it, Mo Rou said tentatively.
"Okay." Shang Xia said seriously.
"I know that Shang Xia's mother no longer goes to work, and I also mentioned that my mother went to work......"
Unexpectedly, it was for this reason, Shang Xia only thought it was funny.
"It's okay, you didn't mean to mention it, besides, now my mother has also found a job, so Mo Rou, you have nothing to be sorry for."
When Mo Rou heard this, her eyes widened.
Being able to find a job at this time of "breaking the iron rice bowl" is a great thing in the eyes of everyone.
"Really? That's really great. But I'm still a little curious, how can I get a job at such a time? “
"My relatives who are doing business in my hometown just happened to lack a helper, so my mother went to fill the vacancy, just by coincidence."
"In this way, your mother's luck is really good, maybe you can be among the best this time, and you will be somewhat affected by your mother's luck!" Mo Rou quipped.
"Okay, let's not talk about me, let's talk about you, is there anything interesting happening this holiday?"
As soon as she talked about the holidays, Mo Rou became energetic and began to talk endlessly, talking about the fun things she had done with her family and the beautiful places she had visited.
In this way, the two arrived at the bookstore before they knew it, bought everything in the bookstore, and said goodbye to each other.
"See you tomorrow!"
"Okay, see you tomorrow!"
Thinking that tomorrow he would devote himself to his studies again, Shang Xia took a deep breath.
Just adjust your mentality, prepare for the last day of the holiday peacefully, and then cheer up to meet tomorrow.
But the cry at the door made her break all her plans.
"Dad, you must be the master for me! Do you really want to watch your own daughter being bullied like this? It's only been a long time since I got married, and she secretly disliked me for not adding a grandson to her, and she was still asking this Zhou Feng to marry another one behind her back, and she didn't want to think that since I married into their family, I made cattle and horses for him every day, and there was hard work without credit! “
As soon as I heard it, I knew that it was Chen Xi crying.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see what kind of virtue Zhou Feng's family is, she will have today, Shang Xia is not surprised at all.
"You chose it yourself, what's the use of talking about it now?" Chen Yougui didn't have a good airway.
"But ......"
"Dad, I'm back!" Without waiting for Chen Xi to finish speaking, Shang Xia interrupted.
"Hey, sister, don't you have to go to work today? How did you have time to come home? ”
Shang Xia glanced at Chen Xi lightly, only to see that her eyes were red from crying, and her face was covered with tears, she must have suffered a lot in that family!
"I want you to take care of it?" Chen Xi glanced at Shang Xia fiercely, wiped it on his face suddenly, and took out the condescending shelf.
"Oh." Shang Xia didn't bother to pay attention to her, and returned to his room with the things he had bought.
She remembers a saying that I was relieved to know that you were not doing well.
Well, that's right, that's it.
The clock on the wall struck eleven times, and it was soon time for dinner.
"It's almost noon dinner time, why haven't you seen anyone cooking yet?"
Seeing that Shang Xia was back, Chen Xi was embarrassed to continue crying, and asked angrily.
"Oh, your mom went out to work."
Chen Yougui responded disappreciatively.
"Out to work? Why don't I know this, where did I go to work? What for? ”
As soon as he talked about work, Chen Xi asked a series of questions.
She is tired of working in the factory every day, and she wants to change jobs as long as she has the opportunity.
"Show others the store in Jinhua, 1,000 a month!"
"A thousand!"
Hearing this number, Chen Xi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.
"Dad, where did you get this job? Such a good thing, why don't you tell your daughter first? ”
"It's not what I'm looking for, you have to ask Shang Xia to go, don't block me from watching TV here!"
Annoyed by her heart, Chen Yougui waved his hand away.
As soon as Chen Xi heard this, he got up and wanted to ask Shang Xia for an explanation.
"Hey, how did you get a job for Mom? What a good job opportunity, why don't you know to leave one for your sister? Whether you want to or not, you have to call me sister when you stay in this house, and you grew up under the same roof, why are you so selfish? ”
Sure enough, as the old saying goes, it's not that a family doesn't enter a door, this Chen Xide's cheekiness, compared with Chen Yougui's, can be said to be better than blue!
Shang Xia stopped the pen in his hand, and he was not annoyed, but just looked at her with a smile and said leisurely.
"What? Sister, don't you already have a job? I listened to my sister, what you mean, are you planning to change jobs...... "I want to talk about "Rebirth 1996" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
