Chapter 250 Family Workers

Hu Taihong's biggest source of inspiration recently collapsed, and he now has to go to multiple workshops to check on the progress of the workers and whether they are following the rules.

The workshop workers' curiosity was piqued: "Has Chen Qingzhen returned?"

Will she still come to inspect the workshop?

The busybodies at the machinery factory had a distorted view of Chen Qing. They dared to say anything behind her back, but dared not say anything to her face, and dared not even look at her for long. Yet they still hoped that she would come to the workshop more often.

Someone came up to Hu Taihong and asked him a question. Soon, he was surrounded by a group of people in a semi-circle.

Hu Taihong, breathing rapidly, said, "I don't know, I'm leaving now."

He quickly finished inspecting the workshop.

He harbored deep resentment towards Chen Qing.

Little did he know, the workshop staff had targeted his timid nature. They surrounded him as soon as he arrived and only let him leave after he wrote the word "qualified" on his paper.

Hu Taihong had been busy all morning, and when he went to the cafeteria, he could only find the cheapest dishes. He had no pocket money left, so he had to squeeze out a little from his food allowance.

He wouldn't even dare to order stir-fried cabbage with lard, let alone a meat dish in the cafeteria; he ordered plain stir-fried cabbage and rice.

He came directly from the workshop to the canteen, arriving just in time to be among the first to eat. There weren't many people there, but soon a large number of workers poured in, chattering away.

There was a moment of silence amidst the surrounding noise, as all eyes turned to Chen Qing.

She is really back!

A little girl with a round face mustered up her courage and spoke to Chen Qing: "Deputy Director Chen, I read your newspaper. My wedding dress was made according to your method. It looks beautiful. Thank you."

Chen Qing smiled: "Thank you for your support."

The little girl waved her hands frantically in front of her, her face turning red.

All eyes were on Chen Qing. Many people had already sat down and were twisting their bodies to look, making the long wooden benches creak.

Chen Qing: “???”

I haven't been back for a while.

Am I that popular?

Chen Qing waved to several female comrades in a daze.

Tian Mengya hurriedly pulled her to join the queue.

The old lady at the window saw Chen Qing and exclaimed with delight, "You're back!"

"Yes, it's been a long time since I've had cafeteria food."

Chen Qing stared at her expectantly.

The cafeteria lady's large iron ladle trembled slightly, a little less than usual, and as she scooped the food into Chen Qing's bowl, she said, "You've lost weight. Eat more when you come back."

"it is good."

Chen Qing smiled happily.

She made money today.

There was an extra piece of pork crackling in the lunchbox compared to usual.

Both she and Tian Mengya ate stir-fried cabbage with pork cracklings. After finding a seat, Chen Qing even took out the jar of chopped chili peppers that Lao Liu had given her: "Want some spicy food? Chili peppers really make rice go better."

Tian Mengya waved her hand: "I can't, I get a runny nose from eating spicy food, I was too embarrassed last time."

"alright."

Chen Qing understood.

Many locals cannot eat spicy food.

But her favorite place in her past life was the hometown of pandas, and she loves spicy, sour and spicy, and fragrant and spicy flavors.

I can't live without spicy food.

Chen Qing picked some chopped chili peppers from the can and put them in a bowl to eat with rice. He then talked about the recent family workers: "I saw in the personnel department's information that a hundred family workers have come to the new workshop."

"Yes, their salary is eighteen yuan."

Family members working is equivalent to one temporary worker position.

But what's better than temporary workers is that temporary workers can be dismissed, while family members of temporary workers can not. However, whether they can be promoted to permanent positions depends entirely on their abilities and connections.

However, there are drawbacks to having family members work as employees.

There are no welfare benefits for the elderly.

Temporary workers get this opportunity after they become permanent employees.

Chen Qing wasn't quite sure how the rules were made, but he knew that in a short period of time, seven or eight temporary workers had been promoted to permanent positions.

Tian Mengya covered her mouth with her hand and whispered, "There's a lot going on at the research institute; the workshop is going to expand again."

Speaking of the research institute, Chen Qing thought of He Yuan.

The two hadn't seen each other for almost twenty days. Even though his home was such a short distance from the machine factory, he hadn't gone home.

He packed his bedding, blankets, and daily necessities and moved directly into the research institute.

The canteen was too crowded, so Chen Qing didn't say much. It wasn't until he and Tian Mengya were walking towards the factory committee that Chen Qing asked, "What's the situation at the research institute?"

Tian Mengya shook her head: "I'm not sure, I only know that there are troops stationed here."

Chen Qing was shocked: "Really?"

“My dad forbids me from telling anyone, so you shouldn’t tell anyone either.”

Tian Mengya hurriedly reminded her.

The research institute is located in a separate building, which is currently under complete lockdown.

Chen Qing made a zipping motion with his mouth: "Don't worry."

After returning to the factory committee, the two carried stools from inside the room to the corridor.

The weather is very changeable. It was drizzling last night, but today the sun is shining brightly, so the two of them sat on the corridor to sunbathe.

The sun looked dazzling, yet it emitted a soft, orange light that warmed the body.

It wasn't until the broadcast of "Workers Have Power" woken up the drowsy people that Chen Qing picked up his stool, stopped abruptly, and asked Wang Jiefang in the corridor, "Where is Tian Mengya?"

"She went to the supply and marketing cooperative while you were sleeping, saying she wanted to buy you oranges."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tian Mengya handed a small bag of oranges to Chen Qing: "Mine are ten!"

Chen Qing was moved: "You're so kind."

Tian Mengya: "We're sisters!"

"Long live the sisters!"

Chen Qing returned to her office carrying the oranges.

I'm so happy.

She had learned about the work of the three departments in the morning, and since no one was looking for her, Chen Qing leaned back in her chair and peeled an orange.

Feeling utterly bored, she began plucking the white pith from the oranges, one after another, her expression serious and focused, as if she were conducting rigorous research.

Tian Mengya saw this and said, "We have to eat the white silk together."

"why?"

"Oranges cause internal heat, while white candy reduces it."

"real or fake?"

"real."

"Okay, I believe you."

Chen Qing obediently ate one segment of orange after another.

In the office, besides her being very idle, the only other person was Su Manman.

Su Manman was fussing over her face. In an attempt to provoke Chen Qing, she brought over all sorts of cosmetics, hoping to incite Chen Qing's jealousy.

Chen Qing: "..."

She could tell that Su Manman was trying to provoke her.

But she was in the fashion industry in her past life.

You can be hungry.

But wardrobes, makeup cabinets, and jewelry cabinets.

She filled these three cabinets to the brim.

She was so bored that she couldn't help but point out Su Manman's intense application of bright red lipstick in front of a small mirror.

"You can try a charming makeup look. If you're unsure, imagine a scene full of springtime; that kind of makeup should suit your style better."

Su Manman retorted angrily, "None of your business!"

What right do you have to discuss makeup with a woman who doesn't even have cosmetics?

Chen Qing popped a segment of orange into his mouth and muttered to himself: "Serves you right for meddling in other people's business."

She turned her head to look at the familiar big tree outside the window. It was bare and looked a little desolate, but it was clean and still very comfortable to look at.

Leisurely days are so wonderful.

After eating three oranges, Chen Qing locked them in the filing cabinet, intending to eat them slowly later.

It's time to leave work.

She's going back to being the first person to leave work!
