With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!
Chapter 125 What a broken rule!
The little girl was grabbed by the aunt's hand and turned her head away in surprise.
"Aunt..."
The aunt pulled her over with a smile and patted her shoulder gently.
"Auntie thinks you are suitable. Come to the factory to work tomorrow. It will also be 20 cents a day."
The little girl's face was full of disbelief and she thought there was something wrong with her ears.
"Aunt, are you really willing to take me in?"
The lady nodded firmly, "Of course! Come tomorrow morning, three meals a day will be provided."
The little girl seemed to be suddenly struck by happiness. She felt a little dizzy and her eyes were sparkling.
"Okay! Thank you, auntie!"
Seeing that this little girl who was less than ten years old was actually selected by the factory, the surrounding villagers were talking about it.
"What can a little girl of a few years old do? You're hiring such a young girl?"
"Wow! Three meals a day are provided. This treatment is too good!"
"Boss! Go home quickly! Call the eldest and second girls over!"
All the villagers were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. If they wanted such a young girl, then there would be no problem for them too.
The little girl walked in the back row, and behind her was an old lady in her forties.
"Hey, my name is Sun Fengxia. How long do I have to work every day?"
The old lady named Sun Fengxia was determined to get this job and she asked about the working time as soon as she opened her mouth.
The aunt who was in charge of recruiting responded to her question first.
"I only work in the factory for one morning every day, and the factory arranges activities in the afternoon."
"Only for one morning? Such a good thing!"
Sun Fengxia laughed happily, and her crow's feet wrinkled together.
"Then you should put my name on the list as well!"
Seeing that she was still hesitant, Sun Fengxia registered her name in a small booklet and urged her anxiously.
The aunt who was in charge of recruiting gave her an apologetic smile.
"I'm sorry, you don't meet our factory's recruitment requirements. You can't be a female worker in our factory."
When Sun Fengxia heard this, her eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief and astonishment.
He asked in a loud voice, "Why don't I meet the requirements? That little girl can do it, why can't I?"
The aunt who was in charge of recruiting people didn't get angry when she was yelled at by the lady.
Instead, he stared straight at her feet, with an ambiguous look in his eyes.
"I'm asking you a question! Why are you staring at my feet?"
Sun Fengxia retracted her little feet with some anger on her face.
The aunt who was recruiting people spoke slowly in a calm tone.
"The boss of our factory said that he would not hire women with bound feet."
After hearing her words, many people in the team began to complain in dissatisfaction.
In this long line, there are many people who have had their feet bound.
"Why is that? Why don't we have bound feet?"
"If that little girl can do it, why can't someone with bound feet do it?"
"What kind of stupid rule is this? What's wrong with foot binding?"
The recruiting aunt walked into the crowd and spoke in the loudest voice.
"Your feet are damaged by foot binding. You can't even walk steadily. How can you come to work in our factory?"
After these words were spoken, the women in the team became quieter, with complicated looks in their eyes.
The aunt who was recruiting workers continued, "Now no one in the city has bound feet anymore. Which factory in the city would hire women with bound feet? People in the city think that bound feet are deformed and ugly!"
These words were set by Zhou Yue and spoken by the NPC. Although these words sound a bit harsh, they are indeed necessary to say.
We need to let these ignorant people know that foot binding is no longer popular outside.
If foot binding is still practiced nowadays, it will do more harm than good.
Not only will you not be able to work and earn money in a factory, but this kind of aesthetic will no longer be popular in the future. There is no such thing as the smaller the feet, the better the marriage.
Many villagers heard this. They hung their heads, not knowing what they were thinking about, as if they were weighed down with something.
Soon a large group of people left the team. These were women who had bound feet.
Feeling lost, painful and confused, they went back home.
They really want this job with high salary and good benefits.
The deeper the expectations just now, the deeper the disappointment now.
The women who stayed in the team all had smiles that came from the bottom of their hearts on their faces.
As for foot binding, although they did not bind their feet, they were still severely persecuted.
In this place where small feet are considered beautiful, they are always humiliated and discriminated against because of their big feet.
Even getting married will be affected to a certain extent.
And today, just because I had never bound my feet, I got such a good job.
I also learned that foot binding has long been banned in developed cities, as people still consider small feet deformed and ugly.
The fact that women with bound feet cannot work in factories may seem to have little impact, but many things are changing subtly.
Guihua's father had already run back home by now and saw Guihua curled up in bed because of her foot pain.
For the first time ever, he didn't scold her and even had a smile on his face.
"Guihua! Daddy is taking you to a place where the factory is recruiting female workers!"
Guihua didn't dare to disobey her father and stood up timidly. Her steps were a little unsteady because of the pain in her feet.
Guihua's father was thankful at this moment that he had not bound his feet yesterday, otherwise such a good job would not have been his family's turn.
The old woman who had broken her leg yesterday and was curled up on the wooden bed next to her spoke out to stop them.
"What factory? What kind of female workers? Guihua's feet haven't been wrapped yet!"
Guihua's father frowned and glanced at her impatiently.
"Just take care of your legs! Guihua will not bind feet anymore!"
When the old woman heard this, she started nagging again.
"How can you not bind your feet? How can you marry into a good family if you don't bind your feet?"
Guihua's father ignored her, supported Guihua and went out.
Guihua has an older sister, but at the strong request of the old woman, she had her feet bound two years ago.
If it weren't for this old lady who insisted on foot binding, his family would have had two female workers, and they would earn 40 cents a day!
Guihua's eyes were moist at this moment, and she almost couldn't help crying out loud. She was extremely grateful at this moment that she finally didn't have to suffer this torture!
Osmanthus's father took his daughter to register happily.
Some are happy, some are sad, and the atmosphere in some homes is particularly tense and low-pressure.
