Poor little thing is eating melons and watching the drama in the period literature

Zhao Yulin patted Yu Qingtang's shoulder with relief and said, "You can come to work at the machinery factory tomorrow. Be a temporary worker first, and I will make you a regular employee when there is a position available."

The goal was achieved. Yu Qingtang no longer had to work in the brigade, so she asked Zhao Yulin to help her get a certificate stating that she was a temporary worker in the machinery factory.

This is all normal procedure. Zhao Yulin didn't let her wait. He took her directly to the office and quickly issued the prescription for her.

"Temporary workers do not transfer their household registration. Your household registration is still with the brigade, but the factory will pay you wages and various receipts, and you can also buy commercial grain at the supply and marketing cooperative."

"Thank you, Director Zhao. I will work hard, shine in the machinery factory, and contribute my own strength to its brilliant development."

"Okay, young people should have this kind of awareness." After praising her, Zhao Yulin reminded her: "Temporary workers can do work if there is work. If there is no work, you can use your time freely. The salary is also piece-rate. When there is less work, you still have to work in the brigade. This is the only way to ensure that you have enough food and drink."

Old Man Wang waited until the two men finished their work before he said, "This is a good thing. I'll treat you to a meal at the state-owned restaurant to celebrate."

Zhao Yulin: "Let's go to my house. My wife knew that the teacher was coming today, so she prepared a table of delicious dishes and is waiting for us to go back for dinner in the evening."

It would be fine if it happened in a state-owned restaurant, but she wouldn't be so tactless to disturb the master and apprentice reunion at someone's home.

Yu Qingtang smiled and refused: "Next time, I will invite Grandpa Wang and Director Zhao to have dinner at the state-owned restaurant. It's too late today and I have to hurry back to the team, otherwise my brother will be worried."

"It's too late. It's not good for a little girl to walk alone at night. You should go back quickly."

After Yu Qingtang left, Old Man Wang said with some regret: "I can't stay here for long. I have to leave tomorrow."

Zhao Yulin: "Why are you leaving tomorrow?"

“I was just passing by.”

It was dark when they returned to the educated youth center. Yu Qingxu had already prepared dinner and was waiting at the door. When he saw her coming back, he stood by the door with his arms folded across his chest and said in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, isn't this the eldest daughter of the Yu family? You still remember to come back."

Yu Qingtang took out a certificate from his bag, shook it in his hand, and said proudly: "I'm going to do serious work, not to play."

The dim light made it impossible to see clearly what was written on the piece of paper she was shaking, but just based on her attitude, Yu Qingxu's heart skipped a beat. He was really worried that something might happen to his sister.

Yu Qingxu reached out to take it, but Yu Qingtang pulled his hand back abruptly, pretending to be very cautious.

"This is my baby, please don't break it."

Yu Qingxu snatched it and opened it to read. After reading it, his eyes suddenly widened.

"You want to work as a temporary worker in a machinery factory?"

Yu Qingtang tilted his head back, wanting to pretend to look down at him, but he was not tall enough so he retracted his head.

"Well, isn't it written clearly on it? What's the matter? Can't you read? How about I read it to you?"

Yu Qingxu asked in disbelief: "Nowadays, jobs are so individualized, and my family can't possibly find a connection to arrange a job for us here. Even if they do, they won't let me know. How did you become a temporary worker?"

"Of course it's my personal charm."

Yu Qingxu didn't want to listen to her nonsense and grabbed her to ask about the whole process.

Yu Qingtang held his stomach and said pitifully, "I'm so hungry."

Yu Qingxu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's eat first, and talk after we're done."

Finally, Yu Qingtang recounted everything that happened today, with 70% truth and 30% lies.

"I can go to work tomorrow. I have to hand this certificate to the captain today."

The two went to the captain's house together. When Yu Qingtang handed the certificate to the captain, the captain was also surprised.

"A temporary worker at a machinery factory?"

He looked at Yu Qingtang and Yu Qingxu with a complicated look.

When he first received the list of educated youth, someone had pointed out that the families of these two people were not simple.

After people arrived, judging from their behavior and the way they spent money, it seemed that their family was not short of money.

I didn't expect to get a job in the machinery factory so quickly, but why was only one person assigned?

The captain did not ask this question, but promptly arranged a letter of introduction for him to go to the town for a long term stay.

"Congratulations! You should work hard in the future and contribute to society."

Yu Qingtang: "Of course, of course."

So, Yu Qingtang went to report to the town's machinery factory early the next morning.

Before noon, the news that Yu Qingtang was working as a temporary worker in the machinery factory spread throughout the brigade, and by the afternoon the news had spread to the next brigade.

At the home of the captain of the neighboring brigade, Deng Xingwen's mother's eyes widened when she heard the news.

"How can Yu Zhiqing, a woman, work as a temporary worker in a machinery factory?"

The aunt who came to tell her the news said, "I heard from the Gaolitun Brigade that Yu Qingtang is a skilled worker. He will be able to become a regular worker if there is a chance. He is not just a temporary worker doing odd jobs."

Aunt Deng looked unconvinced: "How can she, a girl, be a skilled worker?"

The aunt answered honestly: "Because she has skills."

Aunt Deng still didn't believe that Yu Qingtang became a temporary worker based on her own skills, and she thought that she must have found some connections in secret. She heard that her family had a lot of connections.

She thought beautifully: Although my son Xingwen was arranged a job after he retired from the army, that job is not as easy and high-paying as being a technician in a machinery factory. It would be great if Xingwen could do this job.

She also knows that it is impossible for someone with no relatives or friends to give you the job, but... it would be fine if you have relatives or friends.

The thought that had been dismissed rose up again, and became more and more intense.

"Master Lin, good morning. Have you eaten?"

Seeing Yu Qingtang greeting him energetically, Master Lin couldn't help but smile on his stern face.

"Good morning."

"The factory has just received a batch of used goods from the toll station recently. You can modify whatever you think you can. If you can't modify it, just pick out the intact parts."

Yu Qingtang made a circle with his index finger and thumb, and raised the other three fingers to make an OK gesture.

Although Master Lin didn't understand what it meant, he could guess it roughly from her expression.

The good workstations had already been occupied by regular workers, and Yu Qingtang also consciously found a corner to put down his tools.

Time at work always goes...very slowly.

It had been a long time since Yu Qingtang had been so focused on doing one thing, and he was not used to it for a while. Every time he completed a stage, he would look around and try to catch some fish.

Everyone else was busy working and no one paid attention to her.

Influenced by this serious working atmosphere, Yu Qingtang finally persevered until lunch time.
