Scholars in the courtyard

In the back kitchen, Silly Zhu listened to the shouts outside. There was also a roar in the second canteen next to him, but the people in the first canteen were quiet.

"What do you mean? We are going to work in the workshop?"

Liu Lan asked Silly Zhu suspiciously.

The MCA next to me heard it clearly, "It seems so, and I work normally on Saturdays and have to work overtime in the morning and evening."

"Go away, why? Why do you work overtime? I don't have much salary, why do you let me work overtime..."

Silly Zhu was furious and shouted loudly, but before he could finish speaking, Liu Lan covered his mouth and winked desperately.

Only then did Silly Zhu see the canteen director standing at the door.

If it had been done before, Silly Zhu wouldn't have done anything to him.

But with the arrival of Zhang Qingjun, Si Zhu's status is no longer so important. He has been ignored recently, which makes him feel a little scared.

Maybe, I really dare to take him to the workshop.

The director stood at the door with a solemn expression.

Everyone outside is very enthusiastic, supporting the decision of the factory leaders and making selfless contributions to national construction.

But when we arrived at this cafeteria, there was no movement.

What does it mean? Don’t want to join the revolutionary ranks? Don’t want to donate anymore?

The director frowned, Sha Zhu opened Liu Lan's hand and turned around to get angry.

Liu Lan winked and immediately raised her hand, "Escort the comrades workers..."

The people around were reminded and quickly shouted.

"For the workers..."

Even Silly Zhu reluctantly howled a few words when Liu Lan pulled his sleeves.

The director snorted coldly, "Be prepared and obey the arrangements when the time comes."

After that, leave and stay here, upset.

After the director left, the cafeteria looked like a dead mother again.

Silly Zhu sat on the chair with mixed feelings.

When life is not going well and work is not taken seriously, there is always a sense of desolation that one's talents are not appreciated and that one is born at the wrong time.

"Damn it, I can't do this job anymore!"

…

In the tenth workshop, everyone finished shouting slogans and began to get involved in intense work.

Qin Huairu was also affected by this noise.

She never had this kind of passion.

"Qin Huairu, come here."

As Guo Dabozi said, he walked up to a middle-aged woman.

The woman had short hair and a hat, and she looked impatient.

Sure enough, as Qin Huairu approached, the woman began to complain.

"Director, I'm the new guy here, and if the work can't be completed, you can't keep our team's account."

"Also, I won't take care of this apprentice. I will only teach him for two months. I can't take care of the extra energy."

As the woman said, Qin Huairu walked up to her.

He looked Qin Huairu over, then rolled his eyes, "Why do you come to the workshop like this? Go to the logistics department, serve the masters, and be so energetic."

Qin Huairu was embarrassed. If she could, she would really want to go.

Looking at the busy people, these jobs are not easy to do.

"Okay, just take it if I ask you to, there's so much nonsense."

"Qin Huairu, this is Han Liyan, follow her. Just ask her anything."

With that said, Guo Dapizi turned around and left the workshop. He wanted to go back to hear the news.

Han Liyan glanced at Qin Huairu, and before she could speak, Qin Huairu stepped forward and said, "Master Han."

"Stop it, you are not my apprentice, just call me Team Leader Han."

Qin Huairu nodded and cautiously called the team leader.

Later, Qin Huairu became familiar with the work tasks under the leadership of Han Liyan, and also met the workers in the same group.

Soon, he arrived at the work station.

"You are an apprentice now and can't do any other work."

Han Liyan looked at Qin Huairu and her tone became much gentler.

There are no secrets in the steel rolling mill. During the time Qin Huairu entered the factory, interested people had already found out the situation clearly.

Especially Qin Huairu, who looks so handsome and doesn't look like a worker.

Han Liyan naturally heard about it and learned some information from Qin Huairu's mouth.

Knowing that there was a mother-in-law and three children at home, as well as a newborn who had not yet been weaned, the softness that belongs to women took over again.

“If you want to become a regular worker, you have to pass the assessment.”

"You have to take care of this artifact. As long as you achieve an 80% success rate with this simple gadget, I guarantee you will pass half of the test."

Han Liyan began to teach Qin Huairu to work and was very patient.

But Qin Huairu didn't have the talent at all. After teaching all morning, he was still in a daze.

After lunch, Han Liyan took her to a cafeteria to get some food. Qin Huairu followed. When she saw the silly pillars at the window, she immediately said hello.

Han Liyan didn't say much when she saw this.

"Zhuzhu, have some plain food!"

Qin Huairu held the lunch box, looked at the window curiously, and then said hesitantly.

Silly Zhu was holding the rice spoon and pretended not to hear anything. He poured a spoonful of meat and vegetables into the lunch box and winked at Qin Huairu.

Qin Huairu was moved and walked to the side with two steamed buns and sat down.

After eating one and leaving most of the food behind, I got up and walked towards the courtyard.

After an hour's break at noon, she had to go back in time and feed the Sophora japonica before returning.

I still have to study in the afternoon.

After eating, everyone takes a rest.

People in the same group gathered together, Han Liyan frowned and felt depressed.

A young man came to the side laughing and said, "Team leader, we have another person in our group, you should be happy!"

"If you don't have time, can I teach you? It's an apprenticeship anyway, so I'll do the same."

Han Liyan snorted coldly, "I'll be happy if you're working hard."

"I'm afraid I'll just take a picture of a freeloader."

"Xiao Liuzi, I tell you, take care of your work and don't think about things you shouldn't think about. If you fail to complete the task and delay the work of our team, I will push you into the women's restroom."

Xiao Liuzi's body trembled, he was really scared.

In the afternoon, Qin Huairu returned to the steel rolling mill in a hurry, feeling that both of her legs were broken.

Come to the workshop and continue to study with Han Liyan.

I just studied for a long time and still made no progress.

If you try to do it yourself, either this is wrong or that doesn't work. It's just like a lump in the tree and you don't know how to do it.

Qin Huairu's mind was not focused on this. After studying for a long time, she couldn't learn anything, and she felt depressed and panicked.

She was used to being free in the courtyard. She usually did some housework, and then cooked and washed clothes.

You can rest while working, but in this factory, not only do you have no time to rest, you also have to do other things at any time, such as moving things, fetching things, and obeying others' arrangements. The restrictions are tight.

It was not at all what I imagined. I sat in the office, read a book, drank tea, and the day passed.

She can't stand a job like this.

In the evening, Qin Huairu dragged her legs and followed everyone outside.

My hands are burning, there are blisters on the base of my fingers, and it hurts when I hold them.

At the gate, Silly Zhu was waiting under the bulletin board. Looking at Qin Huairu, he quickly waved.

"Sister Qin, how was your first day at work?"

Seeing Qin Huairu's disgusted expression, Shazhu asked quickly.

"well enough."

Qin Huairu didn't want to leave a bad impression that she couldn't do it on the first day, so she forced a smile and replied.

"Hey, you must be tired in the workshop. It's not like I haven't been there before. That kind of work is really not done by women."

Silly Zhu said loudly, and Han Liyan, who was passing by, stopped suddenly.

When I saw Qin Huairu, I wanted to come over and say a few words of comfort. After all, it was my first time. It didn’t matter if I was slow to get started. The main thing was to have perseverance and perseverance.

But when he heard Silly Zhu's words, he suddenly frowned.

Most of the women who can be team leaders in the workshop are stubborn and strong-willed, especially as great men have said, women can hold up half the sky. It is the time for women to wake up. Who dares to say that women can't do it? They are guaranteed to be killed by the Women's Federation the next day. Come to the door.

"He Yuzhu, why can't women leave the workshop?"

Han Liyan stood at the door with her waist pinched, followed by several female workers.

Seeing this formation, Shazhu immediately understood that he had said the wrong thing.

These ladies are not easy to mess with. Even if you mess with them, you will be the one who suffers in the end.

Snapped

Silly Zhu slapped himself, "Look at my mouth, isn't this to comfort Sister Qin?"

"Everyone, I don't mean to look down on you. I really don't dare to mean that!"

Silly Zhu accompanied him with a smile. When Han Liyan saw this, she didn't want to make trouble at the door and snorted coldly.

"Qin Huairu, come early tomorrow to study, don't delay our group's work!"

Qin Huairu hummed and then walked away.

When the group of female workers walked away, Silly Zhu sighed with disdain on his face.

"What a cow, why don't you just obediently give birth to a baby? Bah!"

"Zhuzi, say a few words."

Yi Zhonghai walked over with a tired look on his face.

Today, the workload has doubled.

"Master."

"Well, okay?"

Qin Huairu shook his head and said nothing.

"Let's go home!"

The three of them walked out of the gate.

At the entrance, the number of people in the security department doubled.

People who go out will not only be searched, but also their bags and pockets will be checked.

Silly Zhu was carrying the lunch box and suddenly frowned.

"Pillar!"

Yi Zhonghai shouted, and Si Zhu came over.

"Master, I saw that Sister Qin was very tired, so I brought some leftovers."

Yi Zhonghai's face darkened, what kind of leftovers? If it were really insignificant leftovers, would Shazhu be scared if he wasn't afraid of that day or the earth?

"Take it back quickly!"

Yi Zhonghai blocked Shazhu, and Qin Huairu also came over.

Upon hearing this, Shazhu looked around and quickly ran back to the cafeteria.

After a while, he came back again, holding two empty lunch boxes with his hands in his pockets.

Nodding to the two of them, the three of them walked to the door. The guard checked them and then let them go.

After leaving the steel rolling mill, Shazhu suddenly got up and took it out from his pants pocket. Qin Huairu took a closer look and saw a ball of meat inside.

"Zhuzi, it's really yours."

Silly Zhu smiled proudly, "Of course!"

The three of them walked back, and Yang Xiaotao passed by on a bicycle.

Qin Huairu looked at the distant background with envy on her face.

It's nice to have a bicycle.

Yang Xiaotao naturally saw Qin Huairu, and when he saw these three people walking together, he had to stay away.

Back in the courtyard, Qin Huairu had to feed the sophora flowers, cook, and wash clothes without waiting for a rest. She was so tired that she couldn't even straighten up.

It wasn't until everyone fell asleep that Qin Huairu sat on the bed, hugging the pillow and crying silently.

This is not the life she wants.

Thinking of having to get up early to go to work tomorrow, I felt a sense of resentment in my heart.

Why can't you arrange an easy job for her?

The next day, Qin Huairu forced herself to get up early, and after a busy schedule, she followed Yi Zhonghai to work.

Even so, it was still a little late.

Han Liyan had been here a long time ago, but she felt angry when she didn't see Qin Huairu for a long time.

After standing on the machine for a while, the two started teaching.

After teaching for a while, Han Liyan was busy with her own tasks, while Qin Huairu thought about it by himself.

Other workers around her were busy and no one paid any attention to her.

The work is not only boring but also tiring.

After a day passed, it was just a feeling of exhaustion.

Then he followed the elder brother Shazhu and the two of them back home.

In this way, day by day, Qin Huairu felt more and more in this repetitive work life that it was really difficult to be a worker.

Over the past week, Qin Huairu's hands had worn out skin. Her fingers, which were originally like pearls, had become rough, and the blisters on her hands had popped out again and again.

The most important thing is that there has been no progress in learning these days. When facing the machine, I still have a blank look.

The finished workpieces are either defective or not good, there are a lot of scraps, and none of them are up to standard.

Even the team leader Han Liyan gave up and said directly to wait for the door to be swept.

Qin Huairu gritted her teeth, feeling aggrieved.

How many days has she been to school?

How big was the part? How could she have any impression of it?

Mentally aggrieved, the whole person became haggard.

This kind of physical work is busier and more tiring than the chores at home.

Over the past few days, she really couldn't stand it.

But, she was afraid.

If I don’t have this job, how will my family eat in the future?

Is it possible that we have been relying on Silly Zhu and Yi Zhonghai?

Finally, it was Sunday before I rested at home.
