After get off work, Yi Zhonghai told his eldest mother the result of the punishment imposed on him by the steel rolling mill.
After hearing this, the aunt burst into tears...
After crying for a while, he sobbed and said, "Lao Yi, what should we two do next?"
When Yi Zhonghai could earn more than 80 yuan in one month's salary plus production bonus, the couple could save most of it as future pensions after deducting their monthly expenses.
Now Yi Zhonghai only has more than thirty yuan left a month. How will they survive in the future?
Counting the deaf old lady and those who helped Qin Huairu, the money they could have left in a month was really pitiful.
How can I save money for retirement in the future???
Yi Zhonghai took a sip of low-quality tea and said, "The steel rolling mill is just letting me do logistics work temporarily. I guess this kind of life won't last long."
"It won't be long, or how long, and the workshop director didn't tell us, what if the rolling mill keeps dragging you like this? How many more years can you still work at such an old age?" the eldest mother cried.
Yi Zhonghai became angry instantly and roared: "How do I know how long it will take!"
This was originally a glimmer of hope and psychological comfort that Yi Zhonghai gave him, but it was directly exposed by a few words from his aunt.
"What's the use of getting angry at me? If you can, go to the workshop director and ask for your job as a seventh-level fitter back."
Yi Zhonghai trembled with anger: "You're a womanizer, you just...just...have no brains!"
While the two were chatting, they started to quarrel in the room. The sound almost covered the entire compound, but when they heard that it was Yi Zhonghai's family in the middle courtyard, no one planned to break up the fight.
Now Yi Zhonghai's reputation has long been stinky in the compound.
Everyone knows that Yi Zhonghai wants to find someone to take care of him in his old age. Everyone knows that this old guy has a purpose for being kind to people!
Logically speaking, Qin Huairu, who was closest to Yi Zhonghai, would go and break up the fight, but now Qin Huairu has already been busy with the Jia family's affairs.
There are three children to take care of, and there is an even more difficult Qin Jingru!
"Tomorrow you go to the steel rolling mill with me, and I'll take you back to the countryside."
Qin Huairu found out that Lao Wang, the buyer of the steel rolling mill, was going to the countryside to purchase tomorrow and would happen to pass by the village next to them.
Qin Jingru seemed not to have heard it, humming a song and dancing along with it from time to time: "The sunny day of Jiujiu is coming, my eighteen-year-old brother wants to join the army, the windmill will turn with the east wind~
~”
"Did you hear that?" Qin Huairu picked up the towel next to her and threw it over.
It happened that Qin Jingru took the towel and continued to twist it, and said slowly: "I'm not leaving!"
"You're not leaving?"
"Are you able to make the decision on this matter? Let me tell you, if you don't go back to Jia's house, I won't care about your food anymore."
In order to let Qin Jingru get a ride in the factory, she had to talk a lot, and she had to say a lot of good things before the buyer, Lao Wang, agreed to take someone along with her.
"I just won't leave! It doesn't matter if you don't care about my food, Xu Damao will take care of it."
Qin Jingru felt so happy now. She originally thought that she would probably find a random cat or dog to marry in the countryside, and would never go to the city again.
Unexpectedly...she would eventually become a city dweller!
Jia Zhang couldn't help but said: "Xu Damao will take care of you, so don't dream here."
"You and Xu Damao have reconciled again?"
Qin Huairu thought more than Jia Zhang, and looking at Qin Jingru's expression, it seemed that things had taken a turn for the better.
If that's really the case, it's not a bad thing.
"Of course. Did you see the sesame seeds at the corner of my mouth? This is the sesame seed cake Xu Damao bought for me this afternoon."
"He has already said that he will go out to testify in the next two days!"
Qin Huairu was secretly happy when she heard this. Qin Jingru marrying Xu Damao was the outcome she and Jia Zhang expected to see.
After Yi Zhonghai's salary was reduced, she was still worried about what the Jia family would do in the future. If Qin Jingru and Xu Damao got married, she would be able to find another way out.
"Xu Damao really said that. You couldn't have said it deliberately because you wanted to stay here."
Mrs. Jia Zhang still didn't believe it, because Qin Jingru had a criminal record and deceived her miserably last time.
"If you don't believe me, go ask him, or I'll call him over and ask him face to face." Compared with the last time, Qin Jingru spoke with more confidence this time.
Qin Huairu smiled and said, "I believe you!"
"I'm going to ask."
Jia Zhang dragged her fat body out of bed.
Qin Huairu believed what Qin Jingru said, but she didn't.
The Jia family doesn't have much cornbread to begin with, but they can't let Qin Jingru deceive them anymore.
Not long after... Jia Zhang came back from the backyard, and you could tell from the look on her face that this time it was true.
Xu Damao is really going to get married to Qin Jingru!
…
…
The other side.
Yi Zhonghai and Auntia were exhausted after arguing for a long time.
One is sitting on the bed and the other is sitting on the chair.
In the end, it was the aunt who broke the peace in the room...
"Lao Yi, why don't we stop helping Qin Huairu in the future?"
Yi Zhonghai's salary suddenly dropped from more than 80 yuan to more than 30 yuan. The gap was too big.
With their current income, if they continue to support the Jia family, they may not have a penny left a month.
Helping the deaf old lady was able to get the two houses in the end, but can helping Qin Huairu really get rewards?
This question has appeared in my mind more than once!
Yi Zhonghai was silent for a long time: "Please give less in the future."
Qin Huairu is currently the only person who has expressed face to face that he will provide for the Jia family in their old age. If he does not support the Jia family now, there is a high probability that Qin Huairu will not care about the couple in the future.
The amount of help he had provided to the Jia family over the years was not a small sum. When he thought that the money had not been returned yet, Yi Zhonghai felt very reluctant to give up.
"Lao Yi, why don't you bring two bottles of good wine to the workshop director in a few days to see if you can return to your position as a fitter? Even if it doesn't work, maybe you can show us a way."
Auntie said.
"You womanizer is here again!"
"Whether the workshop director can make the decision on this matter? This is the result of discussions between Factory Director Yang and the leaders of the factory."
"Just take care of the deaf old lady now, don't worry about the rest."
Yi Zhonghai knew very well that the result of the steel rolling mill's treatment of him could not be changed by sending two bottles of good wine, at least not in the near future.
The reason why the steel rolling mill did not report to the whole factory this time was because the experts who made the locomotive came. Director Yang did not want this matter to become a big deal.
If he goes to the workshop director with good wine now, it will be like hitting the muzzle of a gun.
