Chapter 159 Clearing suspicion

The sound came from the construction site behind the city walls.

Jiang Chaodong's face instantly became a little ugly.

After all, it was the area he was responsible for that had an accident.

He immediately sent his guards to inquire.

A moment later, the guards trotted back.

"What's going on?" Jiang Chaodong asked.

The guard replied, "General Hui, there is a female worker who thinks that she does more work than the male worker, but she takes less money than the male worker. ”

"Are there any injuries?"

"Not yet."

"Let's go down."

Jiang Chaodong waved away the guards and turned to report to Yang Chengying.

In order to have enough to eat, many women work on construction sites as if they were men.

If it is in another place, it will be considered offensive to customs.

But this is Liaodong, a place where people can starve to death at any time.

Can you ask a man who is dying of starvation to abide by a dogma that he has never heard of?

The answer is self-explanatory.

It's just that men and women don't pay for equal work, which was something that couldn't be done at the time.

After all, it is manual work, and it is clear who does more and who does less.

"Since she does as much as a man, pay her according to the money given to the man."

Yang Chengying felt that this matter was very simple.

Jiang Chaodong objected: "How can this work." It was all her own words, and there was no one to testify to her. ”

"Oh, let's take a look."

Yang Chengying knew what the social atmosphere was at this time, and did not choose to be tough, but to understand it first by seeking truth from facts.

When they arrived, the argument continued.

"Second Brother Wang, why are you like this?"

The woman grabbed the man's collar and said unconvinced: "You saw the work I did that day, how can you say that you don't know?" ”

The man who was grabbed by the collar looked innocent: "Fourth sister, I really don't know." ”

The male workers who came around pointed and discussed; The female worker stood still, choosing to be silent.

This made the fourth sister angry, her tanned face bloomed red, and her ears were hot.

But how could she let someone else's upper lip touch her lower lip and disappear out of thin air.

"You, you ......" The fourth sister was anxious.

At this time, a gentle gaze came over.

"I'll be a detective for you and try this matter."

"General......!"

And all the craftsmen shall kneel.

Yang Chengying waved his hand and said: "I said earlier, in front of me, no one needs to kneel, just get up quickly." ”

The craftsmen did not kneel, but clasped their fists and saluted.

Coming to the fourth sister, Yang Chengying smiled and said, "Let him go first, let me ask him." ”

"Yes, General."

The fourth sister lowered her head in response and let go of her hand.

This man, named Second Brother Wang, tidied up his clothes and saluted Yang Chengying.

"General......

"Your name is Second Brother Wang?"

"Yes, I am a Hun person who uses a Hun name, which makes the general laugh."

"It's just a name, and it's all taken by my parents whether it's good or not. When I was a child, my parents used to call me a puppy. ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone burst into laughter.

The atmosphere at the scene eased a lot.

Yang Chengying pointed to the fourth sister again and asked, "What is the relationship between her and you?" ”

"She, she and I are fellow villagers."

Second Brother Wang glanced at the fourth sister with a little weakness.

Noticing that Second Brother Wang was looking at her, the fourth sister snorted coldly.

"So it's the construction site you brought her to?" Yang Chengying asked.

"yes, yes." Second Brother Wang stammered and replied.

"Yes, or no?"

"This ...... Be. ”

"You weren't around while she was working?"

"Yes."

"That's good," Yang Chengying turned his head to look at the fourth sister, "How much work have you done?" ”

The fourth sister blurted out: "I push twenty cars to the city wall every day, and I also transfer the city wall bricks to the city tower, you can testify to me." ”

However, as soon as she said this, the scene immediately became cold.

It can be seen that they all seem to have unspeakable secrets.

"You, you ......"

Tears rolled in the eyes of the fourth sister.

"Don't cry, I'll take care of it."

Yang Chengying finished comforting and turned his head to look at Second Brother Wang: "What she said, is it the truth?" ”

"Yes...... No. ”

Second Brother Wang was speechless.

Yang Chengying said: "Yes or no, we'll see later." Then, he turned his head to look at the fourth sister: "What you want is last month's salary, and today's work is only partial, right?" ”

"Yes, General." The fourth sister nodded.

"Okay, you can give me the cart now. I'll put bricks on the car for you. ”

After Yang Chengying finished speaking, he took off his cloak and rolled up his sleeves.

Checkmate!

All the generals were taken aback and shouted to stop them.

"The fourth sister is a citizen of Jinzhou, and I want to defend her today, as the main general, I should do it myself."

With that, he lifted the bricks of the city wall and put them on the cart.

The fourth sister was not just nervous, but also moved, the car was crooked, the brick slipped and fell to the ground.

"I said, don't let me do it for nothing." Yang Chengying quipped.

"Yes."

The fourth sister wiped a handful of tears and stabilized the cart.

Seeing his own coach moving bricks, Gongsun Sheng and other guards took a look at it and came to help.

Then, there were Shang Kexi and other generals.

The people around silently watched this group of generals working.

Every time a car is full, the fourth sister pushes a cart.

It should be said that these four sisters have the same physique as many adult men, strong and burly.

If it weren't for her bulging chest, many people would have thought it was a man.

In the blink of an eye, it was afternoon.

Coupled with the work done before, the fourth sister really did more work than a man alone.

Everyone present was speechless.

"Give her the same wage, and pay her some more, which is compensation for wronging her."

Yang Chengying took the cloak and was about to leave.

He believed that no one would dare to disobey his orders.

As soon as she took a step, the fourth sister knelt down in front of Yang Chengying:

"General...... I don't want to compensate. ”

"What's wrong? Get up and speak. ”

Yang Chengying was inconvenient to help her, so he only made a gesture of lifting up.

The fourth sister said: "I asked for money on the spur of the moment, and I definitely didn't mean anything else." ”

Well?

Yang Chengying looked around, indifferent, indifferent, still indifferent.

Some people even regard her as a "troublesome" person.

I see!

"You don't have to do this job in the future, come with me to the tent. I'll ask my wife to arrange for you to go to a textile factory, or a mosquito coil factory. ”

Yang Chengying said.

"No, I don't go to those two places."

The fourth sister spoke very directly: "The money I earn is too little, I can't go." ”

"Huh? Are you having trouble at home? Yang Chengying asked.

"She also has a sick mother at home to support."

Second Brother Wang interjected and immediately shut up.

Yang Chengying looked left and right, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "You can't make much money as a craftsman, so it's better to be a soldier, you can get one or two or four dollars and a piece of rice every month." ”

Soldier!

Everyone, including the fourth sister herself, was shocked.

"Yes, be a soldier. Set up a women's battalion and go into battle to kill the enemy. ”

Yang Chengying said with certainty.

Everyone present was petrified.
