Chapter 41 figure what
It turns out that some people really can’t expect too much from her.
Lin Wei had just prayed that Gao Xiulian would be able to do her job for a long time, when she heard from Zhao Li that she was being complained about.
Here’s the thing.
Although the work at the state-run hotel was very tiring, after Gao Xiulian went to work, she also lost her private life as Lin Wei thought. But Gao Xiulian is very satisfied with this job, and the reason is very simple, this job is decent enough.
In her hometown, if you want to enter a state-owned restaurant, you must have at least a junior high school education. Although this is the army, and when recruiting workers around the base, they will lower the requirements for military wives, but no matter what, this job is much better than raising chickens and killing fish. .
And because of her personality, Gao Xiulian’s popularity after joining the army has not been very good. In the past few months, her reputation has been particularly bad, and many people who go out don’t like to pay attention to her.
But after entering the state-run hotel, the situation was different, Gao Xiulian could clearly feel that her popularity was getting better.
The reason is equally simple.
Although the large pot of rice is weighed by jins and two places, but the manual scales, more or less, are all in the mind of the person who cooks the rice at the window.
And those who come to eat in state-run restaurants, who doesn’t want to let the window order more meals? Even if there are people who don’t want to take advantage, they definitely don’t want to suffer.
In this case, even if they don’t want to have a good relationship with the window staff, at least they won’t take the initiative to offend each other.
Therefore, when Gao Xiulian went out during this time, everyone she saw greeted her with a smile, at least when she spoke politely. This is the kind of treatment she has never received in the army until now.
And every time Gao Xiulian went to work, she had to cross the path between her house and Zong’s house.
Every time at this time, Gao Xiulian will think of Lin Wei, the job she was spoiled by herself, she is still unemployed, what if she has a high education and culture? Haven’t you been overwhelmed by yourself in every aspect from life to work?
It can be said that after entering the state-run hotel, Gao Xiulian felt that she had come to join the army in vain.
It’s just that there are some people who are easy to float with a little power in their hands, and Gao Xiulian is a typical example.
Half a month before entering the supply and marketing agency, Gao Xiulian still wanted to do the job well, and try to be fair when it comes to cooking, no more and no less. But as time went by and saw more smiling faces, Gao Xiulian’s thoughts changed.
When she sees those people who have a good relationship with her, she will feel that they have such a good relationship, and she has to make it easier for them, so she will order more meals for them.
When she sees those people who have a bad relationship with her, she will think that you offended me so much last time, and you still have the face to let me eat? When the rice spoon is shaken, the meal will be short.
At the beginning, Gao Xiulian did not dare to be too obvious, only a little less. But after a few times, no one was looking for trouble with her, and her courage grew, and the amount of rice she was beating decreased little by little.
Gao Xiulian was complained this time because of the lack of food.
“At the beginning, Xiaojiang didn’t realize the weight of his meals. He saw the military wife at her table and asked her why she ate so little. She replied, ‘A lot, two dishes, two taels of rice’. As a result, the other party As soon as she heard it, she pushed the lunch box in front of her and said that she also has two dishes, two taels of rice.” Speaking of which, Zhao Li paused and asked, “Then guess what?”
Lin Wei joined in and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Zhao Li leaned forward and said, “I don’t know if I don’t compare, but after comparing Xiaojiang, I found out that the rice in her lunch box is one-third less than the other party’s! More importantly, the other party has already made the meal and ate it when she sat down. It’s been four or five minutes.”
Don’t think that four or five minutes are short. These days, you don’t pay attention to chewing and swallowing slowly. If you eat fast, you can eat half of the rice in four or five minutes.
No matter how slow the other person eats, it’s okay to eat one-tenth of the rice, right?
“And then she reported Gao Xiulian?” Lin Wei asked.
Zhao Li shook her head: “No, although Xiaojiang was angry, she didn’t think about reporting it at first, she just went to Gao Xiulian with the lunch box to make a theory. But Gao Xiulian refused to admit it and insisted that her meal was fine. Then Xiaojiang asked to be weighed again. In the end, Gao Xiulian said, ‘I eat so much food every day. If everyone takes it away and comes back to tell me that there is less food, should I still work?'”
Not to mention, Zhao Li’s ability to imitate is quite strong, Lin Wei doesn’t have to try hard to recall, just through her expression and tone, she can think of what Gao Xiulian looked like when she said this.
Lin Wei asked, “And then what?”
“Of course Xiaojiang refuses to do it! Gao Xiulian is obviously saying that she ate a portion of it and came back to find fault? She swore at that time, saying that if she took a bite after the meal, she would be struck by thunder. hack.”
“And then Gao Xiulian admitted it?” Lin Wei continued to ask.
“how is this possible!”
Zhao Li said with a face of “you are too naive”: “Gao Xiulian not only did not admit it, but also said that she was promoting feudal superstition. In the end, it was Xiao Li, the military sister-in-law who first discovered the problem of Xiao Jiang’s weight, and came forward to testify to Xiao Jiang. When other people at the table saw it, they also took the initiative to speak for Xiaojiang, but Gao Xiulian had nothing to say, admitting that because she was too busy, she might have misread the weight, so she could help her re-weigh and make up for the small amount of food.”
Zhao Li tutted: “Listen to her words, because she is too busy, you may have misunderstood the weight, who are you deceiving! Xiao Jiang was wronged by Gao Xiulian, if there were not so many people to testify for her, she would be really indefensible, how could she be willing to do so? Forget it, I asked to see Director Huang, the director of the state-owned restaurant.” Afraid that Lin Wei didn’t know anyone, she explained it specifically, “After Director Huang came out, in front of him, Xiao Jiang let people from other windows. Re-weighing, guess how much of her meal was missing?”
Lin Wei felt that since Zhao Li had asked this question, the amount of lack would definitely not be too small, but it shouldn’t be too much.
She thought about it and said, “Half a tael missing?”
“Hey, how did you know?” Zhao Li was surprised, “Have you already heard about this?”
Lin Wei shook her head and said, “No, I’ve been busy all afternoon today. Except for Zong Shao’s child and the eighth sister, I haven’t seen anyone other than you, and I haven’t heard anyone talk about it.”
Zhao Li sighed and asked, “What are you busy with today?”
“I’m not busy, I just took the time to turn over the floor at the door.”
When she ate durian for the first time, Lin Wei threw a lot of durian pips into the open space at the door, thinking that if one of the pips sprouted and grew into a durian tree, she would be able to lie down and eat durian in the future.
But after Zhao Li found out about this, she told her that it was useless to throw it directly into the soil, and the probability of germination was low. If she wanted to grow durian, it is best to wash the durian core and soak it in water for a day or two before planting, because the soaking is soft. The pits are easier to germinate.
Zhao Li also said that it will take four or five years for a durian tree to grow from planting to fruiting, and if the core is from a relatively large durian, it will take longer.
He also advised Lin Wei not to bother, saying that they were all from Yazhou Island with the army. It was not certain that they could stay here for a few years. Maybe they had been carefully raised for several years. Transfer away, not worth it.
But Lin Wei felt that no matter how many years she stayed on this island, it was always good to leave some memories of her own.
So she soaked a few durian pits and planted them in the open space at the door. She was lucky, and the durian cores she planted began to sprout one after another.
Since they are in good spirits, Lin Wei doesn’t plan to grow other vegetables on this land, except for the onions and garlic that were planted before.
But instead of growing vegetables, it’s good to grow some flowers and plants. It happened that Jun Sa, who had given her two mandarin duck jasmine plants before, saw that her flowers were growing well, and was willing to branch off and give her a few more flowers.
So after finishing the afternoon class, Lin Wei turned over the lot at the entrance to prepare for the branch.
Hearing this, Zhao Li looked up at the field in front: “Don’t say, your durian seedlings are growing quite well, but you have swollen so many durian seedlings, when the durian trees grow up, the space at your door will not be enough, right? ”
“Let’s plant it like this first, anyway, it may not be able to grow into fruit trees after budding. When they grow up, we can transplant them depending on the situation.” Lin Wei said with a smile, “If there are more, I will be there. Would you like to share a fruit tree for you?”
“It has grown into a fruit tree, you don’t have to worry about waiting for it to bear fruit, then I will definitely want it.” Zhao Li also laughed, remembering the topic just now, and asked, “Where did we just talk about the old shígG Dujia? ”
“Xiaojiang’s meal is less than half a tael after the meal.”
Zhao Li remembered: “Yes, you said that Gao Xiulian is really black-hearted, with a total of two or two rice, so she was beaten into one or two halves, but she was too embarrassed to say that she didn’t do it on purpose, she just read it wrong. ”
“Then how did you deal with this in the end?”
“Director Huang, oh yes, you may not know, he is good or not, he just likes and muddy, the evidence is conclusive, but he still wants to calm down, say to make up the weight, and ask Gao Xiulian to apologize to Xiaojiang, this matter Never mind.”
“But Xiao Jiang was so slandered by Gao Xiulian, how could he swallow his breath, he said that he went to a state-run restaurant to eat, and the idea was to be cheap and convenient. If you are like Gao Xiulian, you can come as you please, and you can take more if you are happy, and if you are unhappy, just eat more. If you order less, then you won’t dare to come to the state-run restaurant for dinner in the future, who knows whether she will be called more or less?”
“At that time, the people who ate in the restaurant didn’t want to do it after hearing what Xiao Jiang said. After all, no one could be sure whether they would encounter the same situation as Xiao Jiang. In order to appease everyone’s emotions, Director Huang called Gao Xiulian down. I went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.”
Talking about this, Zhao Li couldn’t help laughing: “Didn’t the state-run restaurant recruit two people before? One is to cook at the window, and the other is to wash the dishes in the back kitchen. Because the deputy head of Zhao is of high rank, the military resettlement office will take her away. It was arranged at the window. I heard that she was still chatting with people at the time, and asked them to work hard, trying to get promoted from the vegetable washer as soon as possible. As a result, she was transferred to the back kitchen after working at the window for less than a month. , the two of them have been transferred to work, do you think it’s ridiculous?”
Lin Wei imagined the scene and couldn’t help but ask, “She didn’t make trouble at the time?”
“She almost caused public outrage, and she still has a face?” Zhao Li’s eyebrows stood up, and the next second they stretched out, “If I want to tell you, if she has a brain, it’s better to be calm and let this matter go away. If it goes like this, otherwise things will get worse, and not only will she not be able to return to work, but she will have to walk around without food.”
The matter of lack of food and ounces of food, at light level, is sloppy work, and at serious level, it is a ideological problem.
Although Gao Xiulian was transferred back to the back kitchen, this matter is actually the former, otherwise Gao Xiulian would not be able to escape a written review, and maybe she would have to remember it on her resume.
To put it bluntly, Director Huang wanted to keep things calm, and the other military wives thought they were all neighbors, so they didn’t kill them all, so this is the situation.
But if Gao Xiulian insisted on making trouble, stabbed the troops, and sent someone to investigate, it is uncertain how to deal with it.
Lin Wei thought about it and said, “This matter shouldn’t be a big deal.”
Gao Xiulian floated back and forth, but her mind was still a little bit. Maybe she was not angry at the time, but after calming down, she should be able to think of this. And even if Gao Xiulian can’t think of it, Zhao Feng can definitely think that he will definitely not let her do such a stupid thing.
What Lin Wei thought, Zhao Li could also guess, and regretfully said, “I thought it would be fun to watch.”
Although there is no new excitement, but Gao Xiulian shows off her work with people on the front feet, makes people work hard for promotion, and changes jobs with people on the back feet, which is enough for Zhao Li to be happy.
In fact, when she went out from the back door of Lin Wei’s house, she laughed out loud when she remembered this.
Zong Shao and Zhou Jianhai, who were standing in the backyard chatting, saw Zhao Li suddenly laughing while walking. .
After Zhao Li left, Zhou Jianhai wondered and asked, “What’s wrong with her? Suddenly smiling so happily?”
Zong Shao is not the roundworm in Zhao Li’s stomach. I don’t know why she suddenly laughed and said casually, “Maybe she thought of something funny.”
But before going to bed at night, Zong Shao still asked Lin Wei, “What good things happened to Zhao Li recently?”
Lin Wei didn’t understand at first and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Zong Shao replied, “When she left our house in the evening, she suddenly laughed while walking, maybe thinking of something happy.”
“Oh, you’re talking about this!” Lin Wei suddenly realized, and recounted the story of Gao Xiulian to Zong Shao.
Zong Shao was speechless after hearing this: “…What is she planning?”
If it was said that Gao Xiulian opened the restaurant herself, he could understand a little bit when she said that, there are no traitors and no businessmen. But the state-run hotel is public, and Gao Xiulian is just a worker. She can’t bring back the rice she saves, let alone convert it to money. If someone finds out, she’ll get a nasty mess. What is she doing?
Lin Wei recalled Zhao Li’s words, and said in a deep voice, “It seems that Xiaojiang had an argument with her a few days ago, and it is estimated that he is not happy.”
Zong Shao: “…” Okay.
