Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Guo Piezi seemed to have expected that Qin Huairu would not treat him well, but he was not angry.

Suddenly he leaned close to Qin Huairu's ear and said, "I heard that the chef Sha Zhu divorced you..."

"The incident with Yi Zhonghai has happened again. They will definitely not give you a penny in the future."

"You have a whole family to support, so there will definitely be times when you are short of money."

"If you need money in the future, just come to me."

"Although my salary is not as high as Yi Zhonghai's, as long as you listen to me and serve me well, I will definitely give you ten dollars a month."

"If I'm in a good mood someday, I might even give you fifteen dollars a month."

After hearing this, Qin Huairu was not as angry as before.

She is a very realistic white lotus. Whether she marries He Yuzhu or commits adultery with Yi Zhonghai, she can get tangible benefits.

Although the money Qin Huairu got from Guo Piezi was not as much as that from Yi Zhonghai, she no longer had any bargaining power.

After the steel mill has imposed punishment on me, my salary will definitely be reduced.

In order to prevent the issue between him and Yi Zhonghai from causing further adverse effects at the steel mill, he would definitely have to stay away from Yi Zhonghai in the future.

Just like what Guo Piezi just said, from now on Yi Zhonghai will be too busy hiding from him to care about him, and he will definitely not give him a penny anymore.

Now that a sucker has come to the door, in order to prevent the Jia family from starving, all Qin Huairu can do is seize this opportunity.

Seeing that Qin Huairu's reaction was not as extreme as before, no matter how stupid Guo Piezi was, he knew that the matter was done.

But he did not force Qin Huairu to make a decision immediately.

As long as Qin Huairu doesn't mind following him, there will be plenty of opportunities to pull her to his side.

…………

"Yi Zhonghai is here..." a cry of surprise suddenly sounded at the door of the workshop.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai no longer had the high spirits he had two days ago. He lowered his head and returned to his workstation under the gazes full of mocking eyes.

Although Qin Huairu was standing at the workstation next to them, in order to avoid gossip, the two of them didn't even say hello.

In fact, Yi Zhonghai still had a lot of hatred towards Qin Huairu at this moment.

If I hadn't reacted quickly yesterday morning and explained in time when I heard Qin Huairu trying to put the blame for adultery on me, the accusation put on my head by the street might not be adultery, but rape.

If you are not careful, you will be sent to labor camp or even shot.

In Yi Zhonghai's opinion, Qin Huairu at that moment could definitely be described as a vicious woman.

In order to reduce his own punishment, he would use any means necessary and completely disregard his own safety. It is so selfish.

If I continue to deal with a woman like this, I might be sold out by her again one day.

After learning from his mistakes, Yi Zhonghai made a decision at home: in the future, he must have less dealings with vicious women like Qin Huairu.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai decisively stood up from his workstation: "Director..."

"I want to change my workstation..."

The director also knew that Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai were not suitable to continue working together. Besides, no matter how severely Yi Zhonghai was punished, he was still capable of producing high-precision parts, so he agreed without thinking.

He immediately shouted to the more than 100 workers in the workshop: "Is there anyone who wants to switch positions with Master Yi?"

What made Qin Huairu embarrassed was that in a workshop of more than 100 people, no one wanted to work with him. If this happened before the accident the night before, there would definitely be many workers in the workshop who wanted to work with him.

But after the news of her adultery with Yi Zhonghai was exposed, everyone avoided her, fearing that they would be affected by her bad luck.

At this moment, Guo Piezi suddenly stood up and said, "Director, I am willing to exchange workstations with Master Yi."

The director was not a fool. When he thought of the lustful look that Guo Piezi usually gave Qin Huairu, he knew what Guo Piezi was planning and subconsciously refused.

He was afraid that just as Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai had just committed adultery in a workshop, Yi Zhonghai and Guo Piezi would commit adultery not long after, and he, as the workshop director, would be embarrassed.

But before he could open his mouth, Guo Piezi's voice reached the director's ears again: "Director..."

"Anyway, no one wants to exchange positions with Master Yi. I love helping others, even if it means taking a little loss. You wouldn't object to me helping others in the workshop, would you?"

The director was forced to hold back what he had just said. He glared at Guo Piezi and replied, "Since you are willing to help others, from today on, you will switch positions with Master Yi to carry out production."

Qin Huairu did not refuse Guo Piezi's arrival.

Just as Guo Piezi had analyzed before, without He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai, the two suckers, he would definitely not be able to maintain the Jia family's living standard with his salary alone.

If Guo Piezi could really give me more than ten yuan every month, it would greatly relieve my pressure.

…………

At ten o'clock in the morning, the steel mill broadcast suddenly sounded in the workshop.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu's hearts were in their throats.

As expected, the next broadcast everyone heard was likely related to themselves, and their heads were almost lowered to their crotches out of embarrassment.

But no matter how embarrassed they were, the sonorous broadcast of the steel mill still reached the ears of the two people.

“Notify…notify…”

"Comrade Qin Huairu and Comrade Yi Zhonghai from the first workshop of our factory committed adultery in violation of moral conscience, which caused a huge negative impact in the steel rolling mill."

“After discussion, the factory leaders decided to give them the following punishments.

"Comrade Qin Huairu was demoted from a first-class fitter to an ordinary worker, with a monthly salary of 22.5 yuan."

"Comrade Yi Zhonghai, as a senior fitter in the steel rolling mill, knowingly broke the law and should be severely punished, demoted from a level eight fitter to a level six fitter."

"At 3 o'clock this afternoon, please ask Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu to rush to the broadcasting room and apologize to all the workers in the steel mill for their bad behavior..."

“I hope you can recognize your mistakes, correct them in your future work, and become excellent workers and comrades in the steel mill again.

“Notify…notify…”

The broadcasting room announced the steel mill's punishment decision against two people three times in a row before stopping.

Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu had already prepared themselves mentally for a pay cut.

But when they actually heard that their work grade and salary were reduced, their faces immediately fell.

Especially Yi Zhonghai.

Before, he was an eighth-level fitter in a steel rolling mill. In addition to his salary, he received a subsidy of nearly ten yuan, so his monthly salary was just over one hundred yuan.

Now that I have been downgraded to a level 6 fitter, the subsidies that only level 8 fitters can receive are definitely gone.

Add to that the salary reduction from being demoted two levels, and the monthly salary dropped sharply from more than 100 yuan to less than 70 yuan, which is definitely a huge loss. (End of this chapter)
