Three hundred and thirtieth chapters orphans and widows mourn everything
The eldest sister of the Xia family suddenly made bold remarks. Not only the eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family was shocked, but also Xue Xiang. {Please search strong reading/strong on Baidu, the first full text without pop-up window to read}
Of course, Xue Laosan didn't think the five hundred yuan was much, but he thought it was too abrupt for the eldest sister of the Xia family to say this so coldly.
"ah!"
The eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family suddenly shouted, pointed at the eldest sister of the Xia family, jumped up and cursed: "You damn girl, you, you, you are crazy, I'm not dead yet, it's not your turn to be in charge, how dare you borrow, borrow,
Qian, you are going to piss me off to death..."
It seemed that the eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family was really angry at what the eldest sister of the Xia family said. She began to breathe heavily. Suddenly, as if she had remembered something, she turned around and got into the corner of the door on the left, reaching out her hand.
He pulled out a broom, raised it, turned around and rushed towards the eldest sister of the Xia family, "I have to beat you to death today, so as not to make you angry to death later..."
The Xia family's sister-in-law came with a fierce force, but Xue Laosan happened to be stuck in the middle. If he stood in the middle, the Xia family's sister-in-law would become Nezha with three heads and six arms, and she might not be able to hit the Xia family's sister.
Sure enough, Xue Laosan stretched out his hand and picked off the broom that Sister-in-law Xia was coming at. "Sister-in-law Xia, what's the matter that you can't tell me? Why are you so angry? If I break it, you'll feel bad and suffer!"
"
But Xue Xiang's status in the Xia family has always been very strange. The eldest sister of the Xia family has never treated him well because she simply couldn't stand his young master's behavior. Even though the eldest sister of the Xia family participated in the dragon riding team last time, Xue Laosan
I have the kindness to criticize him, but Xiaonizi
After returning home, she turned around and forgot how to look at Xue Laosan's displeasure. As for the Xia family's younger sister, she was very close to Xue Xiang because of the little guy. In addition, Xue Xiang always gave her delicious food, so the little girl
Getting along with Xue Xiang was not so good.
The sister-in-law of the Xia family could not be said to be close to Xue Xiang, but she was always extremely polite to her. This politeness reached its peak after Xue Laosan, a top student at Peking University, became a county office cadre, and it developed into a kind of awe.
No, as soon as Xue Laosan said a few words, Nuonuo, the sister-in-law of the Xia family, was immediately speechless. She smiled awkwardly, saying that she was neither advancing nor retreating.
Seeing the appearance of the two mother and daughter, Xue Xiang knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he asked about the little girl from the Xia family who was sitting on a chair with her back.
Xue Xiang was here, and the little sister of the Xia family was not very afraid of the Xia family's sister-in-law. She stood up to the Xia family's sister-in-law's glare and explained the cause and effect clearly.
It turned out that at noon today, the Xia family's sister-in-law came home from work and did not cook. She was waiting for the Xia family's two sisters to finish school.
As soon as she was waiting for the eldest sister of the Xia family, the eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family told the eldest sister of the Xia family to stop studying and get married quickly.
This news is like a bolt from the blue to the eldest sister of the Xia family. She is now in her third year of high school and will take the college entrance examination in a few months. She is very confident in her grades. In addition, although she and Xiaowan are only
We met once during the summer vacation last year, but they became good friends and kept in touch. After hearing the description of college life in Xiaowan's letter, she was leisurely and fascinated.
At this moment, the eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family asked her to stop reading, wouldn't it cost her life?
The eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family suddenly became confused, and the eldest sister of the Xia family naturally refused to comply and asked why. The eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family had been criticized by Xue Xiang, so she naturally would not say that the girl's studies were useless. She only said that the family was financially poor and had no money to send her to college.
.
Who would have thought that the eldest sister of the Xia family is a well-educated girl. She bluntly said that there is no tuition fee for college, and there are monthly food and bonus subsidies. She does not have to spend money at home, and she can also earn money by doing odd jobs in school. After talking, she shows off
Xiaowan told her about work-study!
How did the Xia family's sister-in-law know that the university treatment at the moment was so good? She was left speechless by her own girl. When she became angry and embarrassed, she acted rudely and said she was not allowed to study. There were so many reasons.
The eldest sister of the Xia family has a fierce temper. If she is not willing to give in, she will immediately run away from home, which makes the younger sister of the Xia family feel helpless and burst into tears.
When the family was having a quarrel, Aunt Feng from the front street was holding a big bowl outside the fence, putting rice into her mouth and shouting at the same time.
When outsiders came, the family had to consider their face no matter how noisy they were, so they hurriedly calmed down their emotions.
As soon as Aunt Feng walked in the door, she asked the Xia family's sister-in-law if she had prepared all the money, and said that they would leave together when they went to work later. She had never brought so much money and was a little scared.
Aunt Feng is gone.
The eldest sister of the Xia family and the younger sister of the Xia family were full of doubts and asked questions.
Originally, the Xia family's sister-in-law wanted to use her mother's authority to convince the two girls, but now the two girls had suppressed their grievances and shared the same hatred. They were not afraid at all and pestered the Xia family's sister-in-law to ask the reason.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family also knew that she couldn't resist. If she didn't explain clearly, the eldest girl would definitely be stubborn, and the family would simply not be able to survive.
So, while wiping away her tears, the Xia family's sister-in-law told her the whole story, like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
It turns out that the cotton spinning factory where Sister Xia's sister-in-law works has recently been engaged in an activity of "strengthening production and promoting efficiency". It is said that it is a good thing to engage in such activities in the factory. However, the workshop director issued a notice saying that in response to the call of the factory leaders, the workshop should also educate the workers.
Be effective!
How to achieve results? There are only a hundred and ten people in a workshop, and the production tasks are fixed. Since we can’t make a fuss about the products, we can only make a fuss about the people. It’s just that we can’t make more products, so we reduce the number of people. It’s just fun.
This is the so-called reduction of personnel and efficiency improvement.
But at this time, the restructuring of state-owned enterprises has not yet been introduced, and the Structural Reform Commission has not even been born, so the individual restructuring office has been reluctantly established. Therefore, ordinary workers have an iron rice bowl, and even the factory director, no matter how powerful he is, can only criticize
, punishment, but there is no way to fire workers.
Therefore, this reduction in staff and efficiency improvement has been aimed at certain people since its introduction. Who? It is just non-employed workers like the Xia family's sister-in-law, who have taken over the permanent temporary positions that her husband is lacking.
Of course, the factory did not leave no way for them to survive. They said that if each temporary worker paid 500 yuan in cash, he would not be laid off, and promised to establish a permanent staff within three years! Otherwise, in order to respond to the call of the factory leaders, they would have to give up their jobs.
Home, protect everyone.
This time, the sister-in-law of the Xia family was hit hard. Their family was almost entirely supported by her meager salary. How could the family survive after being laid off?
Moreover, the workers now really care about the factory. Leaving the factory is like becoming a lonely ghost. Therefore, the Xia family's sister-in-law would rather demolish the house and sell the land than be laid off.
If you don't want to be laid off, you have to pay the five hundred yuan, but the monthly salary of the Xia family's sister-in-law is only twenty-eight yuan, which means she has been working hard for more than ten years. In addition, with a generous tenant like Xue Xiang, the family's
The total amount of the passbook is only more than one hundred yuan.
This five hundred yuan is like a huge mountain, weighing on the head of the Xia family's sister-in-law. Even if the house is really demolished and the land is sold, and the family sleeps on the street, I'm afraid she won't be able to raise it.
When the Xia family's sister-in-law was at a loss what to do, she suddenly remembered what Director Han from her workshop had told her a few days ago, saying that his son had fallen in love with his eldest daughter and was willing to pay her a gift of 2,000 yuan to marry her.
This is a relative of the Xia family.
At that time, the eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family refused because her daughter was still young. After all, Director Xiao's son had a good reputation. Although she didn't want the eldest sister of the Xia family to go to school, she also didn't want her to marry such a guy.
But now, the Xia family has reached a dead end. The eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family naturally thought of Director Han's proposal and spoke frankly to the eldest sister of the Xia family.
The eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family changed her usual domineering attitude and kindly analyzed for the eldest sister of the Xia family the superior family background of the Xiao family and how she could enjoy happiness after marrying into the family.
Although the Xia family's sister-in-law also knew that her daughter might not be truly blessed, she herself couldn't help but think of the good things.
After the sister-in-law of the Xia family made such an analysis, the two sisters of the Xia family were completely dumbfounded. How could they have imagined that their family would suddenly suffer such a disaster.
The little girl from the Xia family was the first to speak, saying that she didn’t want to read anymore and asked her sister to read it!
Little sister of the Xia family doesn't know that she just doesn't study anymore, and the money she saves is just a drop in the bucket and can't help the family, but that's all the little girl can do.
As soon as the younger sister of the Xia family spoke, the eldest sister of the Xia family was completely speechless. At first, she thought it was her mother who had something wrong with her. She would repeat the old tune again, so naturally she would fight to the death.
But now that she knows that her family is indeed on the verge of extinction, she will naturally not blame the Xia family's eldest sister-in-law anymore. Her sister has said these things, can she really only care about herself as a sister?
She was extremely unwilling to marry that young man. She would rather not go to school than spend her whole life with that kind of person.
However, the current problem obviously cannot be solved by her not studying. What the Xia family is short of is money, and what they want is to increase revenue, not to reduce expenditure!
Therefore, the eldest sister of the Xia family also froze, unable to say anything except lying on the chair and crying, pitying herself for her own misery.
The sister-in-law of the Xia family also knew the eldest girl's suffering, but she did not continue to force her. She also sat on the chair, lowered her head and shed tears.
And this scene happened to be the scene that Xue Laosan encountered when he entered.
After hearing the whole story, Xue Laosan felt miserable in his heart. People say that poor and humble couples are miserable, but isn't this orphan and widowed mother in front of her also having a hard time?
"Sister-in-law Xia, why does your factory have no excuse for charging these 500 yuan? You can't just accept it because there is such a nonsense!"
He had to help the Xia family. The five hundred yuan was a small thing to him. If Xue Laosan was an ordinary rich man, he would definitely pay for it, but he was the county secretary and ruled under
How could he turn a blind eye when such injustice happened?
Without waiting for the eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family to respond, the eldest sister of the Xia family rushed over and said: "Hehe, hey, when did the officials do things, did they ever give excuses? As for making trouble, when did you stop making trouble? You listen to the people of Xiaoshan County every day.
"Xue Yulu and Secretary Xue are said to be so capable and considerate of the people, but I think he is just a cruel official who only cares about getting promoted and getting rich, and he is a fool!"
"Damn girl, keep talking nonsense and see if I don't mess up your mouth!"
While extending her hand to yell at the eldest sister of the Xia family, the eldest sister-in-law of the Xia family took a careful look at Xue Xiang. She didn't know Xue Xiang's true identity. After all, Comrade Xue was a government cadre. Take him seriously and scold that person.
Secretary Xue, it is inappropriate in any case! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to read it and recommend it as a registered member of Book Literature. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
