Chapter 146: 146 work

In the last week of work, Jiang Xinyu gave clear instructions to the procurement department regarding welfare procurement. The tasks at hand have been clearly handed over.

After work on Sunday afternoon, she saw Lv Beiguang at the door.

"Secretary Lv? What brings you here?"

"Give me another hundred pounds of pork."

"No problem, it’s best if you bring a scale. Otherwise, we’ll have to estimate."

"Secretary Lv, can you help me get a job at the brewery?"

"The brewery is impossible, you might want to ask Hao Shichao, that place might be doable. Are you looking for a job for someone else?"

"Yes, a pitiful woman."

"I’ll call Hao Shichao tomorrow and ask. There should be a way."

"Thank you guys. By the way, I still have over a thousand pounds of wheat here."

"Give me a thousand pounds before the year-end."

"Okay, I’ll keep it for you." Originally planned to give five hundred pounds to the Security Department people. There’s still fifteen hundred pounds left. Keeping them in the space occupies area, the ones I’ve kept before have lasted over ten years.

Lying in bed at night, thinking of Wei Kaiyun who will arrive in four or five days. Taking these days to rest at home.

On Sunday night, Wei Kaiyun got on the train, feeling excited, finally about to meet his wife again, it’s been three months since they last met. Wondering how the little girl is doing.

Jiang Xinyu took advantage of these days to buy honeycomb coal, coal balls, and lumps of coal.

She went to the supply and marketing cooperative, chatted idly with them, and brought back some supplies.

Hao Shichao also came personally, informing Jiang Xinyu that a formal position is impossible, but a temporary position is possible, just cooking.

"Alright, I’ll ask tomorrow and let you know."

"Do I even need to ask? Looking down on this job?"

"How could I? It’s just that it’s a pitiful woman, raising three kids back home, while her husband is with another woman outside.

I want to help her, wondering if she can make it here?

Actually, I initially thought of having her work at the textile factory, but suffering disdain from her own husband daily is torturous, right?

That’s why I thought of letting her work at another factory."

"Alright, let me know if you get news. Before the year’s end, I’ll bring you two big roosters."

"From where?"

"From my home. Especially saved for you."

"You’re something else. Just missing carp, I’ve told Secretary She, if there’s fish, be sure to keep two.

Secretary Hao, are there nearby villages making tofu or tofu slices? If there are, I have soybeans, help me process a slab of tofu, save it for gradual consumption."

"Yes, what time are you planning to do it?"

"Is tomorrow okay?"

"Okay, you find the soybeans, I’ll take them home today and bring them to you tomorrow afternoon, there’ll also be tofu skin."

"Alright, is twenty pounds of soybeans enough?"

"Make a slab of tofu for you, the rest into slices."

"Thanks, how much is the processing fee?"

"Two dollars is enough."

After sending off Hao Shichao, Jiang Xinyu tidied up and went to the textile factory to find Huang Hongwei.

"Director Huang, last time your sister-in-law came by, I told her I could help her find a job.

Finally, we have some hope, working at a furniture factory cooking. Go back and ask, they’re waiting for news over there."

Huang Hongwei felt moved inside; they are already divorced by now, but Wenhua can actually have a job?

"Director Jiang, truth be told, we’re already divorced, she’s back home, and I haven’t been back for a long time."

"Divorced?"

"Yes, divorced."

"Then Director Huang, give me the address, I will personally inquire, having this opportunity, Sister Dong wouldn’t have to struggle too much."

Getting the address, Jiang Xinyu left the factory feeling contempt for Huang Hongwei, what kind of man is this?

This place is quite far, can’t make it today. Not possible tomorrow either. The day after tomorrow, leave early.

The next day at noon, Hao Shichao brought over tofu, and more than ten pounds of slices, along with a stack of tofu skin.

"Thanks a lot."

"Why so polite? Did you inquire?"

"The man abandoned his wife and kids, not planning to return, I’ve got the address, going over tomorrow. Can we arrange for accommodation? Her kids will have to come over, right?"

"Hmm, it’s something you’ve taken upon yourself, got to finish it holding your nose."

Jiang Xinyu cut the tofu into large chunks, placed them in two basins, stored them with the tofu skin and slices in the space. The half slab left, cut into smaller pieces, frozen outside, with pickled cabbage and frozen tofu, add some vermicelli, it’s unbeatable.

Next day wore a cotton coat, left at six. Asking along the way, it took three hours to reach Huang Hongwei’s hometown.

Dong Wenhua was at home, seeing Jiang Xinyu enter she was stunned. "Director Jiang?"

"Sister Dong, I came over to ask about your job."

"Director Jiang, come inside, have a seat."

The room was chilly, "Sister Dong, the weather is too cold, you must keep warm, catching a cold would be troublesome."

"Yes, I will take care, Director Jiang, I’ll go boil some water for you."

"Sister Dong, I’m not thirsty. Sit down, let me talk with you.

This job is a temporary position at a furniture factory, the salary is about twenty-two a month, accommodations can be arranged."

Dong Wenhua sighed, "Thank you, Director Jiang, I can’t go, I have to care for my kids, how would they live if they came to the county?"

"I know the two of you divorced. Does Director Huang not support the children?"

"He gives us mother and kids fifteen dollars a month."

"Like this, can you sustain living?"

Dong Wenhua shook her head, "My eldest son is almost fifteen, needs to find a wife in the future, can he go work, even as an apprentice?"

Looking at this woman weathered by life, Jiang Xinyu couldn’t bear to refuse.

"Alright then, have him come find me at my house the day after tomorrow."

Leaving the address, Jiang Xinyu declined the offer for a meal and left.

It was already past ten, although she rode the bike for three hours, she wasn’t hungry at all. Her mood was very heavy. Her heart held disdain for Kong Mengjie, why does a grown girl seek a man with a family?

She didn’t go home, instead went directly to the textile factory to find Hao Shichao.

"Jiang Xinyu, really know how to find me trouble, come on, I’ll take you to see our Director Liang. It should be no problem for you to come forward, I’m not suitable."

Liang Youfa didn’t hesitate at all regarding Jiang Xinyu’s request, directly nodded.

"Alright, come along, Director Jiang personally came, this face surely counts."

"Thank you, Director Liang."

"No need to be polite, by the way, let Secretary Hao take you to the warehouse and pick any furniture you like, it’s yours."

"Director Liang, my family isn’t short on furniture, thank you." This could put others in a difficult position, this furniture factory is state-owned, although the director has great power, if someone queries later, it could become a tricky matter.

"Director Jiang, you don’t need to be polite."

"Director Liang, I am not being courteous, my home really isn’t lacking."

"Alright. If you need anything in the future, come directly. In a few days, let Secretary Hao bring you some firewood, it’s needed to burn in winter."
