Chapter 065
Xu Cuicui mumbled with an unhappy look. She had never seen such an attitude when she was so old. Even if the sisters and sisters in their village were quarreling, their voices were not as big as Li Dongmei. It was really scary.
She was about to complain to Lu Yuan, but turned around and found that Lu Yuan was standing there without saying a word, with a rather embarrassed expression.
In fact, Lu Yuan wanted to distinguish a few sentences at the beginning, but unfortunately, he was defeated directly under Li Dongmei's high voice. Before he could speak, he was spitting out his face.
It was not until this time that he could tell from Li Dongmei's words that the problem was.
Old ideas kill people!
He was determined to solve the actual difficulties of Li Dongmei and his family, but he did not expect that Li Dongmei was born in the countryside and finally got involved in a state-owned factory, so he naturally became proud.
Now he wants to ask someone to do housekeeping, but he doesn't think about it. In the eyes of rural people, isn't it just a work done by servants? It's really hard to accept that you can make her become a servant from a glorious working class who finally turned over and make decisions.
But this idea is not the case with Lu Yuan's generation, so he had never thought about this aspect before.
"Okay, OK, Dongmei, please say less. Lu Yuan has no bad intentions. This is also a job, it's all about the factory. Why do you get angry at him, a young man?"
This is the case in the state-owned factory. If something happens, a bunch of people will come up immediately. Some of them are watching the fun and some are sincerely trying to persuade them to fight. In short, Li Dongmei was quickly pulled away by the onlookers.
"I'm not angry at anyone, I'm angry! This is too bullying!" Li Dongmei was still accusing him angrily, crying.
"Auntie Dongmei, that's not the case." Lu Yuan wanted to tell the difference, and was immediately pulled away.
"You are stupid. Didn't you see this aunt being upright? Let's go first!" Xu Cuicui pulled Lu Yuan's sleeve.
In the end, Lu Yuan had no choice but to admit his failure and followed Xu Cuicui away from the unit building where Li Dongmei's house was. The two of them did not go back to the office immediately. Xu Cuicui took Lu Yuan to Anan Bing Room. She invited a cup of pearl milk tea for Lu Yuan, and then ordered another cup of coconut milk green.
Lu Yuan was feeling aggrieved at this moment. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He poked the milk tea straw with his hand.
"Then isn't this for their family? Why did it all end up being my fault?" Lu Yuan was depressed.
"How do I know? The aunt's family is so poor that she is still struggling to be a servant. This is not the old society! I don't understand!" Xu Cuicui tried hard to suck the coconut fruit at the bottom of the cup while speaking in a daze.
The rich second generation born in a honeypot like Xu Cuicui naturally doesn't understand. He doesn't understand the persistence of the older generation, and doesn't understand many things that have long been embedded in their concepts and cannot be changed. Just like Lu Yuan has always not understood his father's Hangzhou San Cotton Factory complex.
After drinking milk tea, Lu Yuan's mood gradually calmed down. Although the disadvantage of this start affected his mood, it did not defeat his fighting spirit. After the two returned to the three groups of offices, he began to think about how to convince these aunts to follow him.
Finally, after recalling the various situations that happened at Li Dongmei's house today, he thought of a key point. The reason why Li Dongmei was so excited was because she felt that Lu Yuan was a young man and could not understand her mood, just as his mother Wu Xiuqin often said - young people don't understand.
If young people don’t understand and find a peer, will it be easier to communicate with?
When he got home from get off work, Lu Yuan pulled his parents to discuss countermeasures.
Lu Qingshan took a sip of cigarette and said, "We thought this too simply. We didn't consider the actual situation of other people and did bad things with kindness. You are right. Let's go back and wait for her to calm down. I'll go with your mother again. Don't forget that your mother is the first batch of laid-offs in the factory. Isn't this a good job? If Li Dongmei's idea is to open this breakfast shop, will your mother be an exploiting class and a capitalist?"
"You are the capitalist! I'm called self-reliance!" Wu Xiuqin said, "Okay, I'll cook now. After dinner, we buy some fruit and go to visit Ma Guangming. We said that Xiaoyuan is ignorant today. By the way, we explore Dongmei's words and persuade her to see if this matter can be made."
Wu Xiuqin was quick-witted and only twenty minutes later, three dishes and one soup were served. After dinner, it was less than half past six o'clock, the old couple went to buy fruits and left Lu Yuan to wash dishes at home.
After buying the fruit, Lu Qingshan and his wife went straight to Li Dongmei's house.
Sure enough, as Lu Yuan expected, his parents' face was more effective than that of him, the youngest. Seeing the two, although Li Dongmei's face was not very good-looking, she still invited them in out of politeness.
"Dongmei, let's take a look at Lao Ma, and by the way, I apologize to our Xiaoyuan's morning affairs! You are young, have no experience and can't do anything, so don't take it to your heart!" Wu Xiuqin held Li Dongmei's hand and said with a smile.
Hearing her politely speaking, Li Dongmei's face looked a little better, but she still complained: "Xiuqin, it's not that I said that your Xiaoyuan is not good at this personality! I have to change it! Is there anyone who speaks like this? I know that he is also doing things for the work in the factory, but he can't be used as a gun for others! My speech was a little ugly, but this is also for his own good. For your family, you are all old colleagues, so you can't offend others for nothing!"
"You're right. When I got home, I told his dad about him."
Wu Xiuqin comforted Li Dongmei, then deliberately opened the topic, exchanged greetings, and then gradually talked about family matters, "Is it difficult for home during this period? Is there anything I need to help with and Lao Lu? Just talk! I have opened a breakfast shop now, I am a little busy, but my income is not bad."
"Xiuqin, you are capable and you can make those pasta dishes." Li Dongmei said.
"I'm not capable of it. I can't force it out! Don't forget that I'm the first batch of laid-offs in the factory. I'm relying on everyone's help, so I've survived. We have known each other since we were young. You should help me, I'll help you." Wu Xiuqin said, "Look at Lao Ma's appearance now, you're laid-off again, and there are two children in the family to study, so we're worried about you too!"
"Who said no?"
After hearing Wu Xiuqin's words, a hint of worry surged between Li Dongmei's eyebrows, "Our Lao Ma's work-related injury compensation is not much, and he has spent almost all the time to treat him over the years. This family is all supported by my salary inside and outside. Now! Why do you think the factory doesn't understand us at all?"
Lu Qingshan coughed lightly: "Dongmei, the overall environment in the textile industry is not good now, and there are difficulties in the factory, so we must understand it too! Didn't Chairman Mao always say that he is self-reliant and has enough food and clothing. As long as he is willing to work, he can't find a bowl of rice to eat?"
"Hey, I think about it too! But I don't know much skills and am so old, where can I find a job?" Li Dongmei said depressedly.
When Lu Qingshan heard this, he knew that the opportunity had come. He quickly rang the railway while it was hot: "Isn't the factory doing housekeeping training now? Why don't you try it? This is a good opportunity! I heard that people who do housekeeping can make money now!"
"If you don't go, you won't go no matter how much money you give me. Our Lao Ma family can't afford to lose that person."
Li Dongmei's attitude was unexpectedly determined. When she heard this, she immediately shook her head like a rattle, and even blamed the Lu Qingshan couple, and said angrily, "Old Lu, Xiuqin, I can tell. You should come to help your son be a lobbyist! Yes, he just started working and completing the tasks assigned by the leader is important, but you can't climb up by the old friend's face!"
In a state-owned factory where you look up and see, this is already quite heavy, almost no different from pointing at the nose and scolding a "villain".
However, Lu Qingshan was not giving up and wanted to fight for it: "Dongmei, that's not what he said. Do you think our Xiuqin is laid off? It's earlier than you. Now I open a breakfast shop, and I'm also doing cooking and washing dishes. The money is no worse than working in the factory! Your family is younger and older. When they get married in the future, don't you save some money for the children?"
"How is that the same?"
Li Dongmei said, "Xiuqin opened a shop by herself and became the boss! Where is me? Your baby son wants to send me to someone as a servant! I have to agree to this. Do we still want the face of Lao Ma in our family? Will my two children still want to be human in the future?"
"But your family is in trouble now. You can work for two years first. After you give out the two small ones, you can enjoy a happy life!"
"No need!"
Li Dongmei said angrily, "We are blessed. We can't make this money, and we don't want to make it! Whoever wants to make it, we will never go out to be servants for others! The third generation of workers in the Lao Ma family, no matter how poor the backbone is, we can't lose it!"
Ma Guangming was behind him, tilting his neck and whispering, expressing his agreement.
Lu Qingshan and his wife wanted to persuade him again, but Li Dongmei had already issued an order to expel him: "I want to wipe Lao Ma's body, you guys go back! If it's for this matter, don't come again in the future! You can take this fruit away, we can't bear it!"
Lu Yuan did not expect that even his parents came forward, they finally returned in disgrace. Even the fruits sent by the Ma family were confiscated and brought them back as they were.
"Xiaoyuan! Why don't you give me some advice to the factory to see if you can change some other solutions? In fact, what you, Aunt Dongmei, said is right. She has been a worker all her life and suddenly has to go out to serve people. No one can hold this face off!" Wu Xiuqin soft-heartedly, and now she was a little hesitant.
“Bad talk!”
Lu Qingshan patted the handrail of the sofa, "This plan was proposed by Xiaoyuan, but the factory leaders nodded in agreement. This is what the factory means. It means that it can be replaced? What's more, Xiaoyuan himself gave up the plan as soon as he encountered difficulties. What would the leaders and colleagues in the factory think of him?"
He turned his head and looked at Lu Yuan: "Don't listen to your mother's nonsense, she will pour cold water on it. The woman's opinion!"
"Then you are not a woman's opinion, you should come up with an idea!"
Wu Xiuqin looked at Lu Yuan with heartache, "You haven't seen Dongmei's attitude. Xiaoyuan might suffer so much grievance if he wants to continue working! If I want to tell me, it's all your fault, you are incompetent. If Xiaoyuan was taken to the logistics office from the beginning, would there be so many things?"
After hearing what she said, Lu Qingshan was also depressed and lowered his head and smoked. Lu Yuan was dissatisfied with it and hurriedly said, "Mom, don't blame dad, how can he blame him for this? This is my job, and the plan was also thought of by myself. Of course, I have to be responsible for it to the end!"
Lu Qingshan was silent for a moment, but in the end he still had the upper hand for his son's heartache. He put down his cigarette and sighed: "Why don't you change your family to do a job? Li Dongmei's family doesn't know the good ones, and they always know the good ones!"
"No, I think that Aunt Dongmei's work must be a generalist." Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan also acted extremely stubborn, as if he was having a dispute with Li Dongmei.
"Although you still do work? You still want to ask for scolding!"
"You have to go even if you get scolded!"
Lu Yuan touched his nose, "As Aunt Dongmei makes such a fuss, the whole factory's eyes are probably looking at this! If I can handle her, then the work will be easier in the future. Otherwise, I guess this situation will happen one after another in the future. If I shrank for the first time, it will be even harder to do my work in the future."
"Then control the people who are willing to attend the training with you first!"
Wu Xiuqin said dissatisfiedly, "Those who are ungrateful don't make money to give them money. They deserve no money to pay tuition for their children!"
Today she was defeated at Li Dongmei's house, and she felt that she couldn't bear to worry about her face. Of course, the most important thing is that she felt sorry for her son.
"Mom, that's not what I said."
Lu Yuan became serious, "Didn't you tell me? Neighbors can't let them suffer losses. I didn't feel anything at all, but today I went to Aunt Dongmei and took a look. I felt that I had to take care of this matter. Zhan Pengfei is not a child in the factory, and I don't think too much about his plan. But I am different. I was the one who grew up watching them! I don't care anymore, Aunt Dongmei and others are really forced to the dead end!"
"good!"
Lu Qingshan slapped his thigh, "Good boy! Be responsible!"
He laughed and showed off to Wu Xiuqin, "Look, our son has grown up! You can't look at him with the eyes of a child!"
"Um!"
When Wu Xiuqin heard this, she smiled and was obviously proud of her son's success. "Xiaoyuan, what else can I ask for help from your father? Even if we say something, we will just say something to you. Even if we give up this old face, we will cooperate with your work!"
“Not that exaggerated.”
Lu Yuan’s parents’ statement made him feel excited, but he just waved his hand and smiled, “But I do have a favor here and ask mom to help me.”
"What?"
