third chapter
Chapter 3
Ye Shuhua has a common problem that almost always occurs whenever he is a rich second generation... He is ignorant all day long, eats and waits to die, and at the same time he feels that he is talented and omnipotent.
Just like today, Ye Shuhua "scam" leftovers in the cafeteria with her own abilities. Even if there is only a small ball, it is not enough to stuff her and Comrade Wang Cuifen's teeth. But in her heart, she is unprecedentedly tall today, and even feels so confident that she can support herself and Comrade Wang Cuifen as long as she is willing!
From a certain perspective, Ye Shuhua is indeed qualified to expand. Most young people have basically achieved independent survival since graduation. Some are more capable and can even support themselves during college. Ye Shuhua has never looked for a job from graduation to traveling through time. When she has no money, she looks for her father. After finding her father, she cheats her mother. The couple is still secretly competing until they divorced, and even writing a check for her must overwhelm the other party.
So money is really just a number for Ye Shuhua in his previous life.
Today is her first real "just rely on her ability to make a living". She has worked hard and sweat, which is much more fulfilling than cheating money from her parents.
Ye Shuhua believes that today is the most glorious moment in her life. On the way home with Comrade Wang Cuifen, she happily held the hand of her mother for the rest of her life, hoping to jump three times on the spot to express her excitement.
As an experienced mother, Comrade Wang Cuifen can see that Ye Shuhua is proud of her, but she did not pour cold water on her, because not only Ye Shuhua was excited, but today is also a rare happy time in Wang Cuifen's life.
The little girl may have been afraid of being hungry when she was sick a while ago. After she recovered from the illness, she was most afraid of being hungry. Wang Cuifen wanted to dig some wild vegetable roots and stuff her stomach. She didn't expect that the little girl was picking her mouth. She even vomited wild vegetables after eating for a few days, and her face turned pale. Wang Cuifen felt distressed. Although she regretted spoiling her little daughter like this, she couldn't bear it all day, so she cooked a bowl of egg custard every day to add food to her.
But Wang Cuifen also knew that the eggs would only taste them, not to make you feel the stomach.
If the little girl eats the leftover rice today, she will at least not have to toss and turns in bed hungry at night, but her little girl is so greedy that she still has to give her the rice, which touched her.
Wang Cuifen has been stingy for half her life. Except when the man knew to let her when he closed the door, the few children at home were afraid of her. Ye Shuhua's small rice ball was also sweet to Wang Cuifen's heart.
Not to mention that Ye Shuhua is now a child with ADHD, holding Wang Wang Cuifen and jumping all the way.
Comrade Wang Cuifen, who had never enjoyed the intimacy and dependence of his children, had a strong smile on his face and was reluctant to say anything to her.
So Ye Shuhua jumped all the way home.
The Ye family's conditions are among the best in the entire brigade, because Captain Ye's work points are high, and his two eldest sons are also strong and work quickly. They have ten job points like him. Many people do not have a single labor force that can earn ten job points. The Ye family only pays three, and the annual dividend is much higher than others.
Men are capable, and the women in the Ye family are not inferior. Wang Cuifen is a well-known and profitable person. Not only is she not a problem to work, but her captain's wife is also very good. She often helps the team to deal with conflicts between women and is considered half a woman director, so she has one more work point than the women's group, and the team is convinced.
Under the leadership of Wang Cuifen, the two daughters-in-law were also hardworking and willing to work hard. Those who raised their children and those who were pregnant still did not delay earning work points.
The saying of getting rich through hard work will not be wrong in that era, and the Chinese will build houses when they have money, which is also an unchanging rule.
Two years ago, the boss of the Ye family got married, but the Ye family turned down the mud house that they had lived in for decades, and set up such a unique brick and tile house in the team, and built a "luxury" yard.
This farm house, which was so shabby in Ye Shuhua's eyes that it was impossible to live in, was already an absolute luxury house in the hearts of the locals. So they had only been moving to a new house for a month, and the dowry that the second mother-in-law of the Ye family had immediately been relieved. At the same time, she also prepared a generous dowry and happily married her daughter.
After every day after dinner, the Ye family likes to do the most is to sit in the "unique" yard and chat. When Ye Shuhua and Wang Cuifen finished work and went home, they were already sitting neatly in the yard to rest.
The job in the cafeteria is easier than other places. The only disadvantage is that the team is working, and they go home to eat and rest. However, those who work in the cafeteria are busy packing things, at least half an hour later than others before they can finish work.
It is also because of this that Ye Shuhua and the others ate it in advance before the meal started. The hot food that had just been cooked was not necessary to come back to eat leftovers.
Unfortunately, no matter whether it is just out of the pot or leftovers, the taste is not very good.
Ye Shuhua was in a good mood and took the initiative to greet everyone after entering the yard, "Dad, eldest brother, second brother, eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law."
As he said that, he also teased the little fat man in her sister-in-law's arms.
In Ye Shuhua's heart, the sister-in-law in this world is not very good, but her fat nephew is still very promising. She knew that she was talented at a young age. People said that she was just a mother with milk. Every time this kid saw her, she didn't even want her breastfeeding mother.
At this moment, my favorite aunt was pinched. The fat girl really struggled in her mother's arms and fluttered towards her aunt, causing the adults present to laugh.
Ye Shuhua has never been patient with the child, but today he is in a good mood and can hold a hug. Just as he was about to reach out, Captain Ye, who was sitting under the eaves, suddenly waved to her: "Little sister, come and write something for me."
"Little Sister Ye" suddenly lost her face, not because she disliked the name too rural, but because Captain Ye's words reminded her of the stupidity she had committed.
In her previous life, Ye Shuhua was a standard post-90s generation. In books and classrooms, the teachers were secretive about that special era and were unwilling to talk about it. She herself was not interested in getting to know it in depth, so she always took it for granted that the literal "big pot rice" period was as long as those turbulent years.
So when the captain got out of bed and had to work with Comrade Wang Cuifen, Ye Shuhua was simply unlucky. She thought she would work in the canteen for three to five years... In her impression, it was the college entrance examination that was restored in 1977, which marked the end of a certain period. Ye Shuhua believed that the dissolution of the big pot rice should be that time.
At that time, Ye Shuhua was already tired after working in the canteen for only one day. What would happen if he worked four or five days after day?
I feel broken even after thinking about it, and it is better to die than to die.
Just when Ye Shuhua was doubting her life, Comrade Wang Cuifen, the "great mother", came to give advice, hinting that the person who was the real decision in her family was her father, and that the captain's father would be satisfied and like her, so that life would be better.
Later, Ye Shuhua realized that Comrade Wang Cuifen asked her to please the captain's father, which was actually not the same as her understanding, but at that time, she really felt that this was the only way out.
Captain Ye not only takes charge of his family at home, but also exaggerates him to be the "local emperor" of the entire brigade. As long as he is happy, it will not be a matter of minutes to change to a job that is easy and easy to get a job... Don't expect the rich second generation who is waiting to die to have a noble sentiment. Ye Shuhua doesn't think it's a big deal to open the back door at all. It depends on whether the captain's father is willing to make an exception for her.
So in the first few days, the more tired Ye Shuhua was in the cafeteria, the more she became, the more she became active she pretended to be a small cotton-padded jacket in front of the captain's father. She had never tried so hard to cheat her father for pocket money.
God pays off on his heart, and Ye Shuhua soon discovered the selfless Captain Ye's "weakness".
Captain Ye’s ancestors have been poor peasants for generations, but he has the heart to be an intellectual.
In this era, Captain Ye graduated from junior high school and became one of the most knowledgeable people in the team. It is said that he was elected as the captain because of his high level of education, and everyone in the team respected him.
With his own living example, Captain Ye also attaches great importance to his children's education. In an era when he was not full or warm in food, all five children were sent to school by him.
Except for Sister Ye who really doesn't like to study, Ye Xiaomei and her elder brother and second brother both graduated from junior high school. Brother Ye, the son who made Wang Cuifen proud the most, was even more promising. After finishing high school, Captain Ye was not energetic enough to help his son fight for the University of Workers, Peasants and Soldiers, but sent him to the county textile factory as an apprentice.
Although Ye San Ge is nowhere to go to the full-time company, as the first person to go to the city to earn a job, he still got the envy of the entire brigade. The most promising brother Ye San Ge once again proved Captain Ye's belief that reading more is not useless.
Until now, Captain Ye still maintains the good habit of reading books and newspapers. Occasionally, he would open the table at home to practice calligraphy. After practicing hard pens, he would write soft pens. The whole old cadre acted like a style.
Unfortunately, Ye Sange, who is most like Captain Ye, can only come back to live for one day every month. His children are forced to study by Captain Ye. Everyone is not interested in studying. Most of the time, Captain Ye is the only one who practices calligraphy and reads newspapers.
This also gave Ye Shuhua the opportunity to vote for his own good.
Ye Shuhua was not ignorant when she was born. Her parents were both college students in the 1980s, so the genes left to her were quite good.
When she was a child, her parents didn't care. She lived with her grandfather. The old man was able to cultivate a college student in this era. It can be seen that he is similar to Captain Ye. They both love to study and are in style. Ye Shuhua played chess and practiced calligraphy with her grandfather since she was a child, and she also practiced good calligraphy.
My grandfather passed away when I was in high school. Ye Shuhua, who was in the second grade of junior high school, became a wild horse that broke free. From then on, her temperament changed drastically. She threw away all the things she learned when she was a child, but the only thing she didn't throw was calligraphy. Sometimes when she missed the old man, she spread out her paper and pen to practice calligraphy, so this became her only specialty.
If you want to please the captain's father, you have to meet his preferences. Ye Shuhua is sure that Captain Ye likes cultural people. He also loves the educated youth and the queen, so he decided to act. One day, he "inadvertently" showed his skills in front of the captain's father, allowing him to see her good handwriting... Ye Shuhua's ability to do this was also a test. Captain Ye is a traditional master. In addition to Brother Ye, he can also talk about family and country affairs with him. Other children are not very close to the captain's father, so Captain Ye has no way of knowing Ye Xiaomei's handwriting.
Logically, Comrade Wang Cuifen cares about her daughter so much that she should be able to see that her handwriting is different. Unfortunately, she doesn't know a single big word, so Ye Shuhua easily gets confused.
The plan went smoothly. Captain Ye was indeed "shocking" about Ye Shuhua's words. First, because Ye Shuhua pretended to be sick and cheated on her, he became much more friendly. After hearing her inspirational story of "I realized that studying is not easy after graduating from junior high school, and practicing calligraphy privately when I have time", she immediately changed her mind to her lazy little girl.
How can people who love to study be lazy to eat?
Captain Ye then accepted Comrade Wang Cuifen's reason. It must be that the child's appetite has increased. This is because of the physical reason, and she cannot be completely blamed for being greedy.
After discovering that Ye Shuhua's handwriting was well written, Captain Ye made full use of everything and often called her to come and write reports for her. In the past, only Brother Ye San was able to have such "greatness". Captain Ye's move also marked that Ye Shuhua became the most favored child besides Brother Ye San.
Ye Shuhua was quite happy at first, thinking that she could make plans and ask the captain’s father to change her job after a few more days. Until one day the string in her mind came back, she learned from Ye Xiaomei’s memory that the big pot of rice was opened and that the cafeteria would be dispersed until the end of this month.
This is different from what is written in the book, Ye Shuhua was completely confused.
Because according to the fact, she only needs to work in the canteen for a few days, and when the canteen is disbanded, she can go home for a meal. If she really changes jobs, she will be ready to work until she gets old!
So why did she jump up and down the sky for?
Ye Shuhua was stupid. Now that the captain's father called her to write a report, she became a little passive and lazy.
Just like in her previous life, she disappeared after asking her parents about her checks and she was short of money and only asked them for them, Ye Shuhua never concealed her utilitarianism.
However, Ye Shuhua was not happy, and her beloved little daughter was valued by her father. Comrade Wang Cuifen expressed his gratitude and patted Ye Shuhua on the shoulder with encouragement: "Go and help your father, after writing, my mother cooks egg custard for you."
After Ye Shuhua got out of bed and worked, it also marked the end of her recuperation. She could no longer eat an egg every day. Although Comrade Wang Cuifen would still secretly feed her, Ye Shuhua never did such a "sneak" thing, and she was still unhappy. Now that she heard her mother openly say that she wanted to cook eggs for her to eat, Ye Shuhua became happy and took a brisk step to Captain Ye.
“Sit here.”
Captain Ye did not express any comments on Comrade Wang Cuifen's words, but gave up the stool and stood behind Ye Shuhua with a smile to watch her write.
The whole family knew that Captain Ye had made a default.
Wang Cuifen won the game in a small victory, glanced at her two daughters-in-law without a trace, and then went to the kitchen to cook eggs with pride.
