Chapter 59: The Temple Gate

Xinlan was affected by Director Fan's words, and her mood changed. She felt that if she waited for the factory to take the initiative to solve her family's problems, it would be like waiting for a rabbit, or a fool's dream.

She sat on the steps outside, and had to change her mind and make up her mind to give a gift to clear the customs. However, it is easy to think, but it is difficult to do.

I think that at the beginning, Director Fan didn't even accept two cigarettes of gratitude, would he still receive gifts without a name.

If you rashly give a gift to the past, if you are really sent to the office by him, it will really be a free gift. And he's not rich.

Xinlan didn't accomplish anything, and she was stubborn and unwilling to go back like this. But sitting on the steps of the office building here is really eye-catching, and people who come and go look at her curiously with a speculative gaze.

Xinlan couldn't bear it, and she couldn't avoid people's eyes, so she had to stand up and pat the dirt on her ass and walk out of the door of the office area.

The road outside the gate is not wide, but the curb is wide. The paulownia trees on both sides of the road have dense and impermeable leaves, covering the roadside from the light.

In the shade diagonally opposite the gate, there are two stalls, one selling haberdashery and the other selling cool skin.

Since it was not off-hours, business was not good. Xinlan had nowhere to go, so she walked to the stall, sat on the stool selling cool skins, and listened to the two while resting.

The female boss who sold cool skins saw Xinlan sitting there and didn't say anything, so she asked Xinlan: This eldest sister, see if you are familiar, you are not from this factory, right?

Xinlan smiled and said: I used to be a worker in this factory, but now I am not. The female boss said: I said, the people who come and go back and forth in this factory don't know each other, and I think I haven't seen you here.

How do you get back? Xinlan Dao: Well, come back to Director Fan to do something. He was busy with meetings and didn't have time!

The female boss heard Xinlan say this, and continued: Director Fan's wife works in this store, you can't find Director Fan to find her!

As he spoke, he turned and pointed to the shop behind him. Xinlan turned her head to look, only to see a two-story red building not far behind her, with a sign hanging on the small façade, which said the labor service company store.

Maybe the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. The words of the female boss woke up Xinlan in her dream. That's it!

I can't find Director Fan, why don't I find her wife and see if I can get help from her!

But I don't know her, how can I go where she is? Xinlan had this idea in her heart, so she wanted to learn some information about the factory director's home from the female boss, so she said to the female boss: Isn't the factory director's wife a person who sits in the office, how can she work in the service company store?

When the female boss heard Xinlan say this, she seemed to be a little surprised by Xinlan's statement, and said with a surprised expression: Huh!

Don't underestimate this store, it's not for everyone! Director Fan's wife is here to cover the sky with one hand, and there are not many people under him, but the income is a lot.

Not to mention the daily necessities of this workers' village every day, the store collects a lot of labor protection supplies that go to the store every month in this factory.

Although the workers are regular workers, their wages are not as high as their collective wages! When Xinlan heard this, she asked again: You said that the wife of the factory director Fan is not a regular worker?

The landlady said: No. I heard from the workers who often eat cold skin here that Director Fan's family came from a large factory in the south, and his wife's surname was Wang.

Speaking with a southern accent, she is not tall, it turned out that she was just a family worker, and she was in charge of the store after Director Fan became the leader.

Hearing what the female boss said, Xinlan thought that instead of being idle here now, it would be better to go into the store and have a look, maybe she really knew each other, and she could help in the future.

So I said goodbye to the two owners and came to the store. There weren't many people in the store, only a few customers were wandering around, and three or four salespeople were busy at the counter.

Xinlan didn't know who was the wife of Director Fan, so she peeked at and listened to a few salesmen, thinking about finding a low woman who sold cool skin.

But seeing that among the four people, there was only one low woman who spoke with a southern accent and was called Aunt Wang by the other three young people, Xinlan knew that this was the person she was looking for.

Xinlan recognized the person, but she was very difficult in her heart, she didn't know how to contact this person, she thought about it for a while, and was afraid of attracting attention, so she was ready to come out and think about it.

At this time, after listening to the factory director's wife arranging the noon shift change, she was going home with the things she bought, so she had an idea, and also walked out of the store, followed the factory director's wife from a distance, and watched her walk to the two-story family building where her family lived, and when she entered the building and went upstairs, Xinlan hurriedly walked a few steps to catch up with her body.

It wasn't until he heard the sound of the key opening the door and looked at the door of the factory director's house that he turned around. Xinlan turned around and walked on the street, thinking back to her behavior just now, she was both excited and ridiculous, she didn't expect that she would act in this play.

She steadied herself and thought about it for a long time, but she didn't think of what to do next, considering that it was almost noon time for dinner, and she would have to take over in the afternoon, so she decided to go back to the station first, and wait until she had a good idea.

At home at noon, when it was time to eat, the old couple made the meal early, waiting for Xinlan to go home to eat, waiting left and right and waiting for Xinlan to come back, the old lady couldn't bear it, so she had to go downstairs to the intersection to wait, but after the meal was over, I didn't see Xinlan, so I went back upstairs and told the old man that the old man knew that Xinlan didn't tell them to come back for dinner at noon when he left in the morning, so he said to the old lady: Don't wait, the child didn't say to come back for dinner, what are you waiting for?

Eat it! No matter how late it is, it's all cold! The old lady kept thinking that Xinlan would turn back, and she couldn't let go of this knot in her heart, so she promised to eat, and then she thought about going to the station to see her daughter.

Xinlan has a lot of things on her mind, let's make less trouble for the children! The old lady saw that the old man was a little angry, and wanted to talk back, but she didn't say anything.

In the afternoon, Xinlan took over on time to replace Li Li. At two o'clock, it was the time when the weather was hot and the business was busy.

Chen Ping knew that Xinlan was not resting in the back dormitory in the morning, thinking that there was something wrong, so she wanted to inquire, so she came out in her spare time inside, and asked Xinlan with concern when she saw that no one was buying: Sister Li, I didn't see you resting in the back in the morning, do you need help with anything?

Xinlan knew Chen Ping's kindness, so she briefly told Chen Ping about the situation of her errand, and asked Chen Ping's opinion to see what gifts to give.

Chen Ping didn't give a gift, and she didn't know anything about it, so she promised to ask her husband Zhang Jie when he came to change shifts.
