The day of rebirth and elopement: caught by the military officer husband

Chapter 69: The Country Bumpkin Comes to the Big City

Lin Xiaoxue raised her eyelids slightly and sneered in her heart: "How dare this person come here?"

Chen Meiyun was also stunned when she saw Lin Xiaoxue, but she quickly adjusted her expression, "Xiaoxue! I heard that you were recruiting people, so I came to see you."

"You?" Lin Xiaoxue looked her up and down. "What kind of job does a pregnant woman do? Just go back."

The tone was calm but revealed that there was no room for doubt.

"You have accepted others, but why not your own sister-in-law?" Chen Meiyu retorted pretending to be aggrieved.

"Don't be shameless." Lin Xiaoxue snorted, "We need employees who can work hard and endure hardships. If you are a pregnant woman and fall or get hurt here, who will be responsible?"

The surrounding villagers began to whisper.

"You're pregnant before marriage and you still want to find a job!"

"The Lin family is so evil. How can they let a pregnant woman work?"

"I guess he just wants to use his connections to get by."

Chen Meiyu originally wanted to take this opportunity to gain a foothold here, but she didn't expect that she couldn't even maintain the most basic dignity.

With his face red, he had no choice but to say, "I have to stay! Otherwise I will be beaten if I go back."

"Being beaten?" Lin Xiaoxue raised her eyebrows slightly. "You asked for it. It has nothing to do with me. Please turn left and go right."

Chen Meiyun was so angry, "But I..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xiaoxue dismissed him: "Everyone in our factory makes a living by working hard with their hands. If you can't work, please leave."

Chen Meiyu bit her lower lip, obviously very angry, but she couldn't afford to embarrass herself in front of everyone.

He could only glare at Lin Xiaoxue fiercely, snorted, and turned away angrily.

When other villagers saw this scene, they all expressed that they would work hard.

"Boss Xiaoxue, don't worry! We definitely won't be lazy!"

"Yes, yes, it's not easy to have this job."

Lin Xiaoxue nodded with satisfaction, "As long as everyone works hard, there will be opportunities for salary increases in the future."

After that, she took out a notebook and recorded everyone's name and information: "Go to work in three days, please be on time."

After watching Lin Xiaoxue close her notebook, Lu Xiaoyun couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, why do you have to wait three days to open the store?"

Lin Xiaoxue packed her things and answered, "Because I need to go to Shanghai to purchase some new machinery and equipment."

Lu Xiaoyun seemed to suddenly remember something and said anxiously, "So you have to take Xiaoqin to the station today, right?"

Lin Xiaoxue waved her hand. "I've already said goodbye to Xiaoqin. She's still working at the convenience store and won't leave for two days. If you have anything to say to her, or want to say goodbye, you can go find her directly."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoyun breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay then, I'll go say goodbye tomorrow."

But I started thinking about what to give to my friend who was about to go on a long journey.

Since I started working in the workshop two months ago, I earned my first money through hard work, a full hundred yuan!

When I spent the money Lu Jingting gave me, I never felt how hard it was to earn it.

Now every minute and every corner is as precious as if it were watered with sweat.

When Mother Lu saw Lu Xiaoyun coming out of the factory happily, she couldn't help but sigh: This girl looks weak on weekdays, who would have thought that she could work in the workshop for two months, she has really grown up.

Looking at this daughter who is more sensible and no longer spoiled than before, a warm feeling wells up in my heart.

"Xiaoxue, you are going to Shanghai to purchase machines tomorrow, right? Are you going alone?" Mother Lu couldn't help but ask with concern.

Lin Xiaoxue was packing her things. She raised her head and smiled when she heard this. "I was also planning to bring my second sister-in-law and He Mu. They are quick to accept new things, so it's always good to have more eyes."

When Mother Lu heard that there were three people traveling together, she felt relieved. "Then I feel relieved. Big cities are very complicated. What if you get lost when you go alone? You must pay attention to your safety."

"Don't worry." Lin Xiaoxue answered confidently, "I'm not a child anymore."

After the factory was locked, Lin Xiaoxue walked towards the workshop and found Shi Zhenli and He Mu at the door.

"You two will come with me to Shanghai to purchase equipment tomorrow." Lin Xiaoxue announced the task simply and directly.

Shi Zhenli almost jumped up when she heard that. "Shanghai? That's a big city!"

Her face was beaming with joy, and her eyes were sparkling with anticipation and excitement.

Who would have thought that a few months ago, they were still at odds with each other, but now Lin Xiaoxue can trust her.

That's going to the big city.

Shi Zhenli was quite touched.

He Mu also showed an excitement that he could not hide. He had never been away from his hometown since he was a child, but now he was entrusted with an important task by his boss. This honor made him very excited.

"Rest early today." Lin Xiaoxue reminded: "We have to leave early tomorrow."

The two of them agreed.

The next day, when the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone through the mist and onto Lin Xiaoxue's windowsill, she had already gotten up, simply packed her luggage, and put on the canvas bag that was full of traces of time.

Today is the day to go to Shanghai to purchase machines, and she is full of anticipation.

Shi Zhenli also got up early and waited anxiously in the yard, but she saw He Mu appeared earlier.

Looking at the dark circles under his eyes, Shi Zhenli thought that he was just like her and had been so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

She looked at He Mu, who was wearing a brand new shirt and pants, which looked clean, tidy and solemn.

She, on the other hand, wore a brightly coloured dress and the gold earrings she had worn at her wedding.

When Lin Xiaoxue came out, they were both stunned for a moment, thinking that she was dressed so casually, just a simple short-sleeved shirt and bell-bottom pants.

In such a comparison, the two of them are obviously dressed too hard.

Suddenly it became a little awkward, but fortunately a tractor from the village happened to stop in front of them.

Uncle Liu waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and get in the car!"

The three of them stepped into the car as instructed and sat down on the seats made of straw.

The tractor bumped through the field path, leaving a roar in the quiet morning.

40 minutes later, they arrived at the town bus station.

Lin Xiaoxue bought a ticket for a long-distance bus and looked at the scenery passing by outside the window. The bus moved forward alternately on muddy roads and newly paved asphalt roads, and arrived at the train station after a shaky ride.

The train roared like a giant dragon, making a deafening sound on the rails.

Three hours seemed to pass in the blink of an eye, and after spending time in the comfortable and warm interior of the train, they finally arrived in Shanghai.

After walking out of the train station, the tall buildings in front of me reach up to the sky, huge billboards are shining, and pedestrians are hurrying...

These were enough to surprise Shi Zhenli and He Mu, who had never been to a big city.

"Oh my god..." Shi Zhenli held Lin Xiaoxue tightly, "Is this the legendary high-rise building? I feel like a bumpkin."

Lin Xiaoxue smiled and patted her hand to comfort her.

She looked at the buildings around her, and guided by her memories of her past life, she led the two of them towards the bus stop.
