Chapter 503 Waiting for the rumors to subside automatically
Xu Erlong and Qiao Lifu listened silently.
Since then, this house has always been a barrier that city dwellers cannot get around.
The middle-aged woman who was knocked down sat on the ground. She did not cry or make any fuss, but her eyes were cold: "I have explained countless times that I gave you away with my mother's consent, because I didn't want you to get pregnant.
Township……"
But the man still refused to give in, continued to curse, and even rushed forward to hit someone.
"Okay, you fight, and I'll call the street director right away." The woman raised her head with a decisive look on her face: "Since you don't care about the brother-sister relationship at all, I won't be lenient."
People in the alley next to me tried to persuade them to stop the quarrel, stop the quarrel, and talk to each other if they have anything to say.
"Hmph, if you don't give me the money, I will come to make trouble with you tomorrow." The man said these harsh words and walked away.
Other neighbors in the alley helped the woman up from the ground.
The woman stubbornly remained silent, pursed her lips, and tied up her disheveled hair.
From this movement, you can clearly see that there are scars on her face and hands.
Xu Erlong suddenly understood why, when he saw this woman's injuries yesterday, he was afraid that she would blackmail him.
Now it seems that she was actually beaten by the so-called younger brother just now.
The woman thanked everyone, lowered her head and entered the house.
The neighbors in the alley who were watching dispersed in twos and threes, and Xu Erlong also discovered Master Tao who was watching just now.
"Master Tao." Xu Erlong smiled and greeted him: "Hello."
Master Tao smiled and replied: "It's better for you."
"Master Tao, how do you think about what I discussed with you yesterday? Are you willing to go to the county with me to develop? I am really sincere. Not only will I pay you three times your salary, but I will also reimburse you for your return trip home every Spring Festival.
We will also provide benefits during the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, so don't worry." Xu Erlong advised him.
Of course, Master Tao was reluctant to leave Shanghai, but his son persuaded him to go to other places for development. Why should an old man be so ambitious that he could make more money and make the family's life better in the future?
It was such a rationale, but Master Tao thought that his son was forcing him, and he couldn't accept it emotionally.
If he stays in Shanghai, he can still use his spare energy and earn some money to support his family.
To put it bluntly, the family's housing situation is still tight, so if he can go to other places to make room, it is natural for him to be driven to other places.
"Okay, I'll go to another place with you, but we agreed that the three times the salary must be paid on time." Master Tao said.
"Of course, I won't rely on you." Xu Erlong said.
The door next to it opened, and the woman just opened it, looked at Xu Erlong and Master Tao outside, and asked: "Do you still want someone? Really three times the salary? Can I go?"
Xu Erlong was a little surprised.
I had spent so much time trying to find a few masters to teach apprentices, but none of them were willing to go, and now someone actually asked me.
"Are you also a shoemaker?" Xu Erlong asked.
"Yeah." The woman nodded firmly.
Xu Erlong breathed a sigh of relief.
Is this really the answer to the question of whether there is no way out, and there is a bright future in another village?
I used to set my goals on those retired masters, but in the end, I actually ignored these people in their thirties and forties.
These people are in their golden age, they have skills, and they are not too old. They are really suitable.
Xu Erlong was overjoyed and said to her: "That's great, eldest sister, I need professionals like you. I guarantee 100% that it will be three times the salary. Don't worry about this."
Unexpectedly, Master Tao next to him snorted coldly: "Don't believe her, she doesn't know how to make leather shoes at all."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Erlong couldn't help but frown.
Isn’t this woman a shoemaker?
Could it be that you are still unemployed, so you are tempted by the triple salary? And then you use big words to deceive yourself?
The woman was exposed, but she was not embarrassed. She fixed the hair that fell around her ears and said with a calm face: "Although I am not a leather shoe maker, I make leather suitcases, which are all leather-clad.
Are you related?"
Xu Erlong couldn't help but look at this woman a few more times. He didn't expect that, if nothing else, at least this woman had a strong psychological quality and was somewhat calm about big things.
Look at the other women who were beaten before, either crying or making trouble, but she behaved calmly and calmly.
"My name is Jin Xiu. I am 30 years old. I have worked in the city's leather goods factory for more than ten years and am a key technician. I still have a banner of commendation from the factory hanging at home. If you don't believe me, ask Master Tao." The woman said to herself.
introduce.
Master Tao nodded and admitted that what Jin Xiu said was true.
Xu Erlong chuckled: "I asked these retired masters here to give us so many conditions. These masters are not willing to go. You, a key technician in the city's leather goods factory, will you come with us?"
Obviously, he is skeptical about Jin Xiu's words.
"Did you see what happened just now?" Jin Xiudao said, "My brother has come here to trouble me every day or two. I don't want to stay here anymore."
There are three brothers and sisters in her family. Her parents were imprisoned due to some problems. As the eldest sister, she shoulders the heavy responsibility of taking care of the younger brothers and sisters.
From the age of twelve, she lived alone with her younger brother and sister making matchboxes. Later, when people saw that she was smart and capable, they introduced her to a leather goods factory as an apprentice.
Later, when the younger brother and sister grew up, they were involved in the matter of going to the countryside. In order to prevent the younger brother from going to the countryside and suffering, Jin Xiu took the initiative and adopted his sixteen-year-old younger brother as his son.
Jin Xiu, on the other hand, lived alone with his sister and delayed getting married.
The days seemed to pass so peacefully.
But later, as my younger brother grew older, he came back to complain, saying that he had no job, couldn't find a partner, and so on.
As the eldest sister in the family, Jin Xiu always had to consider her younger brother's life-long affairs. She gritted her teeth and finally gave up her job to her younger brother.
Originally, my brother should be grateful for this.
But the bad thing is that the youngest sister went abroad.
At first, Jin Xiu saw that there were a lot of people coming and going, so she asked her sister to learn foreign languages and try to be a translator. She usually went to the English corner to practice speaking with others.
As a result, my sister practiced her spoken English and practiced it, and actually married a foreigner and went abroad with him.
Afraid that her sister would suffer when she went abroad, Jin Xiu pooled together some money and found a way to exchange some foreign currency for her sister.
This incident stirred up a hornet's nest, and the younger brother concluded that his biological parents must have left a large amount of property, and that Jin Xiu had devoured the property left by his parents.
So, the younger brother not only came to make trouble with Jin Xiuxao, but even wanted to occupy the house, saying that he was the only boy in the family and of course he should have a house.
He also said that when Jin Xiu adopted herself as a son to someone else, she had the intention of monopolizing the family property.
Jin Xiu repeatedly explained that she had adopted him to someone else because she was afraid that he would go to the countryside and suffer hardship.
