60s: I have a store

Chapter 214: Bringing People In
After Xin Fengxia removed her makeup and changed her clothes, she came to Zhou Yimin and said, "Hello, comrade!"

After getting to know Zhou Yimin a little, she felt that she would need his help in the future, so she had to build a good relationship with him, otherwise she would not be able to ask for supplies in the future.

Zhou Yimin's grandfather said nervously, "Hello, comrade!"

Xin Fengxia said: "I never thought that I would have an audience like you, old comrade. It is such an honor for me!"

The old man kept praising the other person for his good acting and singing, etc., and even told a story from a play.

Zhou Yimin rarely saw his grandfather like this. Most of the time, he was calm. He would only be shocked a few times, such as when he was promoted or when ten jobs were given to him in the factory.

Xin Fengxia continued: "That's right, old comrade, you have raised such an outstanding grandson, it's amazing."

"That's right, my eldest grandson has a promising future." said the old man proudly.

If he were to evaluate himself, he would certainly have to be humble, but when it comes to his grandsons, nothing can be exaggerated, and his eldest grandson is indeed outstanding.

Zhou Yimin's grandmother was so excited that she forgot to speak.

The old branch secretary was very envious when he saw this scene, but there was nothing he could do. Even if he went up, Xin Fengxia probably wouldn't pay any attention to him.

He knew very well that people were actually doing it for Yimin's sake.

After a brief chat of more than ten minutes, Xin Fengxia led the group members to pack up and leave.

The three old men could only watch Xin Fengxia and the others leave.

At this time, Zhou Yimin's grandmother finally reacted, slapped her thigh, and became annoyed.

"Grandma, don't be afraid. There will definitely be another chance next time." Zhou Yimin comforted her.

Although I can't be in the village next time, Xin Fengxia will definitely have performances in Sijiucheng. If my grandparents like it, it won't be difficult to take them to watch it.

Grandma Zhou Yimin said, "Grandson, is there a next time?"

This time I felt like I hadn’t seen enough and the show was already over.

Zhou Yimin affirmed: "Don't worry, grandma. I will take you to the city to see it next time."

"Okay, grandson, you must take us to see it next time." said Zhou Yimin's grandmother.

The three of them talked and chatted as it was already quite late.

When we got home, everyone was tired, so we washed up and went to bed early.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yimin got up, went out to wash up, and saw a group of people waiting for him.

Then he remembered that he had to take Zhou Xiaoying and the others to the instant noodle factory to start work today, so he quickly said, "Wait a moment, I'll wash up and take you to the factory to report."

"Uncle Sixteen, it's okay. We're not in a hurry." Zhou Xiaoying said respectfully.

She didn't sleep the whole night last night, because as long as she got a job at the instant noodle factory and joined the glorious working class, her household registration would be changed to an urban household registration, and she would be able to eat commercial grain from then on, and would not have to work hard every day like in the countryside to earn those insignificant work points.

Moreover, this morning, her family cooked breakfast for her and made sure she was full. This kind of thing would never have happened in the past.

Food is so precious nowadays that it is good enough to have two meals a day, not to mention being full. Before, I did not do much work every day, and I ate the least in the family.

Zhou Xiaoying's mother also said clearly: "You will get married in the future, so why don't you help with more housework before you get married? If your brother can't find a wife, it will be all your fault!" The idea of ​​favoring boys over girls has always existed, so women generally do not have a high status in the family.

If I marry into a better family, my life will be a little better; if I marry into a bad family, I will be beaten and scolded every day. I really have to get up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs. I do the most work and eat the least. Even if I want to eat more, I can't.

Zhou Yimin didn't let Zhou Xiaoying and the others wait too long. He quickly washed up and took the ten of them to the old branch secretary's house.

First, you have to go to the village to get a letter of introduction, and then you can report to the instant noodle factory.

I originally wanted to ride a bicycle, but then I thought about how there were so many people and I wouldn't be able to carry them. It wouldn't be convenient for me to ride the bicycle alone and let them follow me, so we decided to walk together to the Red Star Commune to take the bus.

The old branch secretary also got up early and had already issued the letters of introduction one by one without waiting for Zhou Xiaoying and others to come over.

Zhou Yimin said, "Old Party Secretary, you are up so early. We are here to get a letter of introduction."

"I'll help you open it and send them to work as soon as possible." The old branch secretary pointed to the introduction channel in front of him.

Zhou Yimin couldn't help but praise the old branch secretary for his speed, nodded and said, "Okay, old branch secretary, I will take them to work now."

After saying this, he took the letter of introduction from the table, and set off for Sijiu City with Zhou Xiaoying and ten others.

Zhou Xiaoying asked cautiously, "Uncle Sixteen, is Sijiu City very prosperous?"

The scope of his activities was limited to Zhoujiazhuang. It could be said that he had hardly ever been to other villages, let alone Sijiucheng.

"Well, if compared with the village, it is definitely much more prosperous, but you just have to get used to it," Zhou Yimin explained.

You have to know that the current Sijiu City and the future Sijiu City are basically two different cities. The difference is huge, but the current Sijiu City is full of unknowns.

Zhou Yimin also added: "Once you enter the factory, you must listen to the arrangements of the leaders. Although the leaders cannot fire employees at will, it is still easy for them to make things difficult for you.

Of course, if someone bullies you, don’t be afraid of them, just come back and tell me.”

Don’t cause trouble, but don’t be afraid of trouble!

He was afraid that the young man in front of him would get carried away and get into trouble. He would have to decide whether to help him or not. If he was right, it would be fine, but if he was not, he would also have a headache.

More importantly, we are afraid of some major accidents, so just in case, we should tell you in advance.

"Uncle Sixteen, don't worry, we will never embarrass you." Zhou Dafa, one of the older men, said.

The others nodded. If they really caused any trouble for Uncle Sixteen, Zhoujiazhuang and the family would not let them go, not to mention Uncle Sixteen.

Soon, they arrived at the Red Star Commune and passed by a breakfast shop. Zhou Yimin asked, "Have you all had breakfast?"

I was just focusing on eating and didn't ask these guys. Generally speaking, when someone from the family comes to work, they will most likely prepare a sumptuous meal for them, but Zhou Yimin couldn't guarantee that there would be no exceptions.

Zhou Xiaoying said, "We have all had breakfast, Uncle Sixteen, you can eat by yourself!"

Uncle Sixteen has done us a huge favor by giving us the job, so we can’t ask for more.

However, at this moment, Zhou Dafa's stomach made a rumbling sound.
