Comfortable life in Siheyuan

That day, Qin Huairu took half a day off in the morning and went to the street office to find Director Yang.

"Knock! Knock knock!" The door was not closed. Qin Huairu knocked a few times. Seeing the director looking at him, she walked in.

"Director Yang, I'm coming in." Qin Huairu said with a smile.

"What do you find me for?"

"Director, I am a worker at the steel mill and live in the compound at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang."

"Hello, what can I do for you?" Director Yang asked politely.

"I am the one who held the job where a man died of a work-related injury. I want to ask if my child and I can transfer our household registration to the city?"

Director Yang recalled some bad memories and his face looked a little strange.

"It's the compound owned by Yi Zhonghai, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes! The director is the most powerful man in our hospital."

“Is your family still registered as a rural hukou?”

"Yes, I married from the countryside and my household registration is still in the village."

"Are you a formal employee now?" Director Yang asked in a businesslike manner.

"I joined the factory last year and now I am enjoying the benefits of a formal employee but have not yet been formally hired."

"You were given this treatment because your husband died of a work-related injury. You were supposed to be a temporary worker." Director Yang recalled that the leaders of the steel mill had been troubled for several days because of this treatment. In the end, the old woman had no choice but to give you the treatment of a regular worker.

"You and your children want to change to urban hukou, which is not difficult. You just need to become a regular employee."

"Director Yang, our family is really in difficulty. We can't even buy food without the ration. Can you help us?" Qin Huairu burst into tears, looking so pitiful!

"Don't be like this. I can't help you. I remember you've been working here for more than a year. Go to the factory and ask if you can get a permanent job. You were originally entitled to the benefits of a regular employee. Ask Lao Yi for help. He has a say in your steel mill." Director Yang didn't want to get involved in this family's mess. He passed the buck to the steel mill.

Qin Huairu had no choice but to go back after hearing what the director said. She said goodbye to the director and left.

……

At noon, after Liu Qingshan finished his lunch, Qin Huairu came up to him before he even walked into the office.

"Brother Qingshan, please wait a moment. I have something to talk to you about." Qin Huairu was not polite at all.

"Master Qin, what do you want from me?" Liu Qingshan didn't want to get involved with this pretty widow, so he put on a businesslike face.

"Hey, Qingshan, aren't you being too formal? I want to..." Qin Huairu originally wanted to ask him about the permanent job, but then she thought that she could go back to the workshop and ask the old man about that later, so she decided to talk about the transfer first!

"I want to ask you if you can help me talk to the factory leaders. The work in the workshop is too heavy. I'm a woman and I can't do it. Can you transfer me to logistics?" Qin Huairu was not polite and even called her an elder sister when asking for help.

Liu Qingshan felt uncomfortable when he thought of her slacking off in the workshop.

"Master Qin, you want to be transferred to logistics, but you have found the wrong person. Logistics is under the charge of Deputy Director Li. I am not familiar with him, but you can try to contact him directly." Liu Qingshan reminded kindly.

I remember that in the TV series, Liu Lan was forced at the beginning. I wonder if the widow Qin can bear it.

"I'm just a small worker, how dare I go to the leader!" Qin Huairu said worriedly.

"Now is the era when workers are in charge. Doesn't Xu Damao often drink with factory leaders? Maybe he knows them!" Liu Qingshan was also a man with a lot of bad intentions.

"Then I'll try it!" Qin Huairu said worriedly.

"Well, Master Qin, I'm going to the office first."

After saying that, he turned around and left without any delay.

Qin Huairu was still thinking about this when Xu Damao appeared out of nowhere.

"Sister Qin, you are looking for Deputy Director Li. I will take you there. Liu Qingshan has only been here for a few months! Have you ever had dinner with Deputy Director Li? I am familiar with him!" Xu Damao said proudly.

"I heard everything about where you were hiding just now. Then please accompany me there, as it will be a favor to me." Qin Huairu was also prepared to try her best.

"No problem. After we're done, I'll take you to another place to finish what we did last time. I'll give you 5 extra dollars." Xu Damao took the opportunity to put forward conditions.

Qin Huairu looked around and hesitated for a while. Then she made up her mind. "Okay! I agree."

The two of them went to Deputy Director Li's office together.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Who!"

There was a rustling sound coming from inside.

"Director Li, I'm Xiao Xu, the projectionist of our factory. I have something to discuss with you." Xu Damao really looked like Eunuch Xu at this moment, with a fawning face.

"Come in!" It seems that the leader was resting just now, and the bed is still messy!

"Director, this is Master Qin from the first workshop of our factory. She has something to ask you. I brought him here." Xu Damao took the opportunity to step forward and pour a cup of tea into the leader's cup.

Deputy Director Li glanced at Qin Huairu and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Oh! Master Qin, why haven't I seen you before?" Deputy Director Li said to himself.

Qin Huairu thought that Deputy Director Li had never met her before and was not familiar with her, so she was afraid that the discussion would not go well. She hurriedly said, "Deputy Director Li, my husband was originally an apprentice of Yi Zhonghai in the first workshop. He died of a work-related injury last year, and I came to the factory to take over his position."

Feeling that he was not important enough, he brought up Yi Zhonghai.

The words just now were reduced to six words in Li Huaide's ears: "My husband passed away."

"What do you want to talk to me about? Are you having any difficulties?" Li Huaide put on an expression that showed concern for his subordinates.

"Deputy Director Li, I have taken over my husband's position as a fitter, but I find it really hard to adapt to this job. I haven't been promoted to a permanent position after working for more than a year. I'd like to see if I can be transferred to the logistics department of our factory." Qin Huairu said cautiously.

"Is that so?" Li Huaide thought for a while.

"I'll go check when we get to work to see if there's any shortage of people in the logistics department. Come back later!" Seeing that Xu Damao was there, he felt it would be inappropriate to do anything, so he sent them away first.

"Thank you, Deputy Director Li. I'll go back first."

After saying this, he and Xu Damao both left.

After going out, Xu Damao wanted to say something, but Qin Huairu didn't give him the chance and went straight to a workshop.

As soon as she got off work, Qin Huairu went to Deputy Director Li's office alone again. This time, Deputy Director Li was obviously more talkative.

"Xiao Qin, you want to go~~"

……

I don’t know what the two talked about specifically.

All I know is that two days later, Qin Huairu got her wish and went to work in Shazhu's canteen, and became the person in charge of the canteen. She was also promoted to a full-time employee.

From then on, Qin Huairu also brought a lunch box every day.

Oh! By the way, Xu Damao went to the countryside to show movies, and his mission is quite heavy. He probably won't be back for a while.
