A well-behaved girl was deceived while searching for her husband; she married a childless military o

When Liu Weihong saw Wei Zhengye approaching, she immediately greeted him warmly: "Director Wei, what brings you here?"

Wei Zhengye explained his daughter's situation and then asked Liu Weihong, "The work in the pickle workshop isn't suitable for my daughter. Are there many vacancies here?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Weihong fell silent for a moment. She understood perfectly well that Wei Zhengye wanted to find his daughter an easy job.

Do they all think their pastry workshop is a waste recycling center? Do they hire just anyone?

However, Wei Zhengye was, after all, the factory director, whose power was second only to the factory manager, so these supervisors dared not offend him.

Wei Zhengye added, "Winter is coming, and the end of the year is fast approaching. The pastry workshop must be quite busy, right?"

Liu Weihong nodded with a smile; "Yes, we've been busy frying twisted dough sticks lately. Our factory's twisted dough sticks sell very well every year. Last year we couldn't even keep up with demand, and this year we've increased our quota by another 5,000 jin of flour."

The workload is indeed much heavier than last year, which is why the pastry workshop needs to increase its manpower.

We must ensure production so that everyone can have a good New Year.

Wei Zhengye then said, "That's perfect. Today is Hongmei's first day on the job. She's very good at making noodles, whether it's bread or cookies. She makes them a lot at home. Shall I have her come and give it a try?"

Liu Weihong: "..."

Sending my daughter over is one thing, but sending her over is another.

They also specified that bread and cookies should be made.

Liu Weihong felt a tightness in her chest, but she immediately thought of Qiao Lanshu, the factory director's relative who had also gotten in through connections.

Let's just let those two who got in through connections switch places. They both got in through connections anyway, so no one should blame anyone else.

Anyway, Liu Weihong felt quite annoyed looking at Qiao Lanshu, so she immediately said, "Director Wei, you've come at just the right time. I have a new temporary worker here. She looks thin and delicate, like a young lady. She's obviously not cut out for manual labor. I don't want her anyway, so let her go to the pickle workshop."

Upon hearing her say this, Wei Zhengye's brows immediately relaxed. He smiled and said, "Manager Liu, you're so thoughtful. Consider this a favor I owe you. I'll go call Hongmei over so she can report to you."

With that, Wei Zhengye walked away happily.

Liu Weihong turned around and went back to the deep-frying class.

Qiao Lanshu was currently helping Hu Erge fry dough twists.

She couldn't make twisted dough sticks, so she was only responsible for frying them. Apart from being a little hot and having a sore arm, everything went fairly smoothly.

She was worried that the fried dough twists would overcook, so she kept a close eye on them.

Seeing how serious she was, Hu Erge, who was initially not very satisfied with her, began to approve of her.

New apprentices are required to undergo at least one week of training.

Hu Erge didn't mind if she learned slowly, but at least she had to be serious in her attitude and meticulous in her work.

Seeing the little girl struggling to scoop up the twisted dough sticks with a large strainer, Hu Erge walked over, took the strainer from her, and said to Qiao Lanshu, "Alright, take a break and go get some water."

Actually, Qiao Lanshu had been busy for less than an hour, but it was really hot here and she needed to replenish her water.

In addition, her arm was already very sore from constantly swinging the iron spoon.

This large colander is actually quite heavy, so this workshop is mostly staffed by men. Most young women work in the bread workshop.

Qiao Lanshu wore a mask and hat, revealing only her bright black eyes. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Hu. I'll go get some water."

As she was saying this, she was just about to get a drink of water when she saw Liu Weihong come in again.

As soon as Liu Weihong saw her, she frowned and said, "Are you here to be a pampered young lady or to work? How long have you been on the job? Has it been an hour? And you're already slacking off?"

Before Qiao Lanshu could even speak, she heard Brother Hu say impatiently, "I told her to take a break. The young lady hasn't had a drop of water since she started work. I told her to go rest for a bit and have some water, what's wrong with that?"

Liu Weihong: "..."

Liu Weihong was truly surprised. Hu Erge, who usually didn't pay much attention to anyone and didn't give face to anyone, actually spoke up for Qiao Lanshu.

She originally thought that, given how picky Hu Erge was, he would make Qiao Lanshu cry.

She said, "Brother Hu, you wouldn't be speaking up for her just because she's young and pretty, would you?"

Hu Erge got angry. He slammed the spoon in his hand down and stared at Liu Weihong, saying, "What nonsense are you spouting? Work is work. Comrade Xiao Qiao is serious about her work, so of course I'm willing to speak up for her."

Hu Erge hated Liu Weihong the most; she was such a troublemaker, always causing trouble and never doing much work.

Liu Weihong felt embarrassed by what Hu Erge said, so she stopped talking to him and turned to Qiao Lanshu, saying, "The director just came and said that the pickle workshop is short-handed and wants you to go there. Let's go."

Brother Hu frowned and said suspiciously, "The pickle workshop is only busy for ten days to half a month. After that, they'll be the least busy. How could we be short-handed? I'm the one who's short-handed, can't you see?"

Liu Weihong clicked her tongue and said to Brother Hu, "Brother Hu, don't worry, I'll find you a man in a bit."

As she spoke, Liu Weihong glared at Qiao Lanshu and said, "Come with me now."

Hu Erge was still annoyed. He said somewhat irritably, "Since there were men available, why didn't you bring them over this morning? You must be out of your mind."

Liu Weihong: "..."

Liu Weihong was furious after Hu Erge said those words to her.

But she couldn't argue with Brother Hu. Brother Hu was a veteran employee of the factory, having worked in several workshops, and his work ability was unquestionable.

He had been awarded the title of "Five-Good Employee" several times. He should have been promoted to supervisor in the first place, but Liu Weihong used her connections to snatch the spot and replace Hu Erge.

Brother Hu understood, but didn't say much.

That's how work is; no matter when or where, you have to rely on personal connections, networks, and relationships.

Qiao Lanshu followed Liu Weihong out of the deep-frying class.

She seemed to have no temper at all; she never argued with Liu Weihong and just obediently did as she was told.

She seemed quite aggrieved on the surface, but in reality, she was incredibly happy inside.

What an amazing thing!

Deep-fried meat sandwiches are so hot and stuffy. Staying inside for too long makes you feel dry and gives you a sore throat.

The problem is that after swinging the spoon for forty minutes, her arms were sore and swollen.

What's more, there's also Supervisor Liu who's targeting her.

She took a deep breath of the cool, fresh air and followed Liu Weihong toward the pickle workshop.

She was familiar with the pickle workshop; she had worked there in her previous life and had held several different positions, so she would be able to learn quickly.

more importantly!

Winter is coming soon!

Starting from December in the Gregorian calendar, there is almost no work in the pickle factory, and they can be idle until after the New Year!

Qiao Lanshu wondered to herself, "Why would Liu Weihong give me such a good job?"

Could it be a lie?
