Chapter 839 Irreversible
Shen Qing'e stared at the screen in a daze.
It was the end of the year and my uncle's restaurant business was booming. My aunt was bored at home, so she went to the restaurant to help collect money, leaving Shen Qing'e alone at home.
She rarely had the opportunity to relax like this.
Unfortunately, Jiang Ning's visitor records made her nervous.
Suddenly, a pop-up window popped up on the screen and the sound of WeChat video rang out. It turned out to be a WeChat video call from her mother, so she quickly answered it.
On the screen was a middle-aged woman in her forties. She was different from the pampered aunt. Although she was younger than her aunt, she looked much older than her.
Most rural people in Anhui Province go to coastal cities to work. At least 80% of the young and middle-aged people in a village leave their hometown, and Shen Qing'e's parents are no exception.
Her father is a welder, mainly welding motorcycle frames. It is piecework work, and if he works hard, he can earn more than 7 yuan a month.
Her mother works in a small factory processing small parts, earning less than 4 yuan a month.
Shen Qing'e went to coastal cities during the winter and summer vacations, especially to her mother's workplace, which was a private workshop owned by a local.
As a town, most residents of Huizhou Town make a living by farming or running small shops, and there are very few township industries.
But in the towns of Jiang Province, there is a sense of prosperity where "every family opens a factory and becomes a boss".
People from Jiangxi Province opened factories and became bosses, so where did the workers come from? Naturally, they came from Anhui Province, Henan Province, Hunan Province, etc.
"Ezi, are you still at your uncle's house?" asked the middle-aged woman.
Shen Qing'e forced a smile: "Mom, I will take the bus home tomorrow."
Then she asked, "Why are you video chatting today? Didn't you have no data before?"
Shen's mother on the screen was quite happy. She looked very similar to Shen Qing'e, especially her sharp chin, which made her seem a bit mean and difficult to get along with.
But facing her daughter, she patiently picked up the phone and shook it, revealing the surrounding benches and the Huayun Supermarket sign at the back.
"I'm taking a break today. I'll bring your dad to the supermarket to buy some food. There's wireless internet."
Shen Qing'e: "Your car for tomorrow night?"
Mother Shen: "Yes, go to Luqiao first, and then get on the bus there."
The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and then Shen's father showed up and said a few words. He spoke much less than Shen's mother.
Off camera, Mr. Shen, wearing a pair of clean leather shoes, touched Ms. Shen with his arm, meaning for her to bring up what needed to be brought up.
Shen's mother said, "Oh, Gezi, didn't you go home with Xiao Jiang?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Qing'e's expression changed obviously, but she concealed it very well.
Shen Qing'e smiled and said, "No, he will probably be home late. I want to see you guys earlier, so I will be back tomorrow."
Mother Shen looked regretful: "Hey, I was thinking about you being with him. You two were so close before."
When Jiang Ning was getting along with Shen Qing'e in the past, they were quite close. He even rode his bike to Shen Qing'e's house and brought her snacks. Shen's mother seemed to do a good job on the surface, but deep down she felt that Jiang Ning was not tall enough and his family conditions were average, except for his good grades, so she did not stop him.
As for Shen's father, he is a bit snobbish. He has two daughters. The eldest daughter married Jiang Qitian's son. Now she has a big house to live in, a car to drive, and enjoys life all day long.
As for the younger daughter, she was even prettier, and he had long since decided that she must marry a city dweller with better conditions.
So when Jiang Ning went to his house, after Shen's father learned about his family's conditions, his attitude was lukewarm and he even gave him a few words of lecture.
Who would have thought that after a few years, the situation would change, and Jiang Ning's parents joined Changqing Liquid and became a "legend" among the migrant workers in Wencheng!
There are founders of 'Alibaba's Eighteen Arhats' on the Internet. It is no exaggeration to say that Father Jiang and Mother Jiang have become similar figures in the villagers' mouths. The couple is now the general agent of Changqing Liquid in Lincheng and makes a lot of money a year.
As for how much money she makes exactly, Shen Qing'e's parents don't know, as it is too far away from them.
But, some time ago, Jiang Ning's parents actually arranged a thirty-year-old boy named Xiao Guizi from the village to be a security guard at the Yuchang Changqingye headquarters!
The basic monthly salary is 8 yuan, 15 salaries a year, the highest amount of social security and provident fund, two days off a week, days of annual leave, food and accommodation included, and numerous benefits...
When Mr. Shen thought of this, he felt extremely indignant.
He knew Xiao Guizi, who didn't even graduate from elementary school and was a very honest person.
He does odd jobs in the town all day, carrying cement and wheat, and has only a handful of strength. How could he enter the Evergreen Liquid?
Jiang Ning's parents enjoyed such high treatment that others could only look up to them, but Xiao Guizi was a truly ordinary person around them. This matter caused a huge sensation in the town, and countless people who used to work in the village came to Jiang Ning's parents to give gifts and build relationships.
Unfortunately, they had no idea where Jiang Ning's parents lived.
Shen Qing'e's parents didn't think much of it before, but after being stimulated by Xiao Guizi, their minds became active.
If my daughter gets close to Jiang Ning, not to mention becoming in-laws, if she is arranged to be a security guard, her life will be just as wonderful!
Who would like to work hard in a factory?
As for the sense of dignity, after working in a factory for two months, it was gradually worn away. Faced with the hard life, most people are willing to compromise.
Shen Qing'e looked at her parents' expectant expressions, which were even more enthusiastic than when her parents asked her about her grades.
She felt inexplicably cold in her heart. Her parents had no idea about her and Jiang Ning's current situation.
Shen Qing'e gave them a shot of prevention. She carefully considered her tone and said, "He didn't live with his uncle at the beginning, and everyone went to a new school. In fact, the communication was not as much as before."
When Mr. Shen heard this, he frowned and criticized: "Don't eat other people's food all day long. Girls should be generous. Later, you can also treat him to a meal and watch a movie."
Shen Qing'e almost thought she heard it wrong: "?"
Shen's mother chimed in: "Your father is right. Girls shouldn't act recklessly just because they are pretty. I, your mother, was from the countryside..."
"When we return to the village, you can ask Jiang Ning to come to our house for a meal." Father Shen thought about it, and then he decided: "No, we have to go to his house in person to thank him for tutoring you in junior high school!"
"Dad, what are you talking about!" Shen Qing'e was dissatisfied. How could this be possible?
Amid her parents' grumbling, Shen Qing'e hung up the video impatiently.
She sat on the sofa, gasping for breath several times, her eyes red.
"You were the ones who said Jiang Ning's family was not good before, that his parents were migrant workers with no future, and now you are rushing to his house. Are you really this kind of people?"
When Shen Qing'e thought of this, she couldn't help feeling sad.
She was in a daze for a long time, and suddenly remembered: 'I seem to be the same person. When I was in junior high school, he was just an ordinary person, but wasn't I nice to him? "
For some reason, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable and extremely pessimistic.
She thought back to when she was in junior high school, during physical education class, she and her classmates were chatting beside the fence of the playground, and two unruly boys from the next class deliberately kicked the ball at her.
Jiang Ning stepped forward indignantly and fought two people at once, but ended up getting beaten up. Fortunately, he was pulled away by other students.
At that time, Shen Qing'e clearly saw that Jiang Ning's clothes were stained with footprints, and she wanted to comfort him.
Coincidentally, a handsome boy from the next class approached.
Shen Qing'e didn't want the handsome boy to misunderstand that she and Jiang Ning were close, so she acted unusually cold towards Jiang Ning who stood up for her.
She was high and mighty, criticizing rationally: "Hey, Jiang Ning, are you sick? Why are you fighting with them? Is violence the only way to solve problems?"
She still remembers that Jiang Ning's clothes were covered in dust because of the fight.
When a handsome classmate from the neighboring class came over and asked about the situation, Shen Qing'e was still secretly glad that she and Jiang Ning did not act too close and were not misunderstood as a couple.
Thinking back on it now, she felt a piercing pain in her heart.
Jiang Ning fought with others just to help her, and this fight made it so that no one would bother her again.
And she didn't say anything.
What Jiang Ning wanted was to help her without hesitation and protect her safety. What she wanted was not to let the handsome boy from the next class misunderstand her.
Shen Qing'e felt nauseous and suddenly felt very disgusting.
Countless past events seemed to jump out of the box:
During every self-study class, Jiang Ning would waste his own study time and patiently help her teach.
Every afternoon after school, she didn't want to go out to buy food, so Jiang Ning brought it to her. He was always very considerate. In addition to bringing food, he would often bring some small surprises, such as candy, chocolate, and yogurt...
Every time after evening self-study, Jiang Ning would deliberately walk a little further with her, using a flashlight to light her way home, fearing that she would have to go home in the dark…
Each past event was like a thorn growing into her flesh, stinging her bitterly and telling her all the time how much she deserved to die.
But when she saw the handsome boy from the next class, she seemed to have forgotten all of this.
Shen Qing'e suddenly thought, would Jiang Ning know her reasons at that time?
He probably knew about it, right? How lonely must he be?
'If that was the case, why did he treat me so well later? '
Confusion, pain, and regret filled Shen Qing'e's heart. Her emotions were extremely intense, and before she knew it, she was in tears.
In the blurred vision, Shen Qing'e seemed to see the past scene again.
The sunlight was exceptionally bright that afternoon. The young man stood in the hazy time, his clothes dusty and looking a little disheveled.
Shen Qing'e once showed a disgusted expression and was about to say: "Hey, Jiang Ning, are you sick..."
At this moment, Shen Qing'e, who was outside of time, was extremely anxious. She seemed to be standing in front of a barrier of time and space.
She slapped herself hard, trying to stop herself.
The light and shadow suddenly changed, and she finally saw Jiang Ning's face clearly. He was smiling awkwardly and uncomfortably.
Shen Qing'e stared blankly at the ordinary, thin boy in front of her.
This time, Shen Qing'e did not blame him. She walked up to him, carefully helped him brush off the dust, and gently asked him if he was hurt.
……
Xue Yuantong said: "I want to take back everything that belongs to me!"
After saying that, she picked up a small potato.
Jiang Ning: "Reverse the situation!"
After saying that, he snatched Tongtong's potatoes with chopsticks.
Xue Chuchu thought to herself: 'Childish.'
After saying that, she also picked up a small potato. The potato looked very cute and tasted soft and delicious. After being dipped in the rabbit soup, the taste was doubled.
Tongtong no longer eats rabbit meat and instead competes with Jiang Ning for small potatoes.
While two people were fighting for the position of head of the family, Chuchu took advantage of the situation and stole several small potatoes.
"We can't go on like this!" Xue Yuantong said anxiously.
She glanced at the dishes on the table. There were rabbit stewed with potatoes, braised fish tail, cold-mixed beef tripe shreds, a bowl of lamb ribs, and a small bowl of cut watermelon.
Logically speaking, with so many delicious dishes, Chuchu would definitely roll her eyes, but, Chuchu just chose to eat the small potatoes!
Fortunately, Xue Yuantong had many plans and began to put on eye drops: "Chu Chu, why don't you eat rabbits? Can't you bear to kill them?"
Xue Chuchu and Jiang Ning are already familiar with each other and are not so shy anymore. Since she can be Tongtong's best friend, she is naturally not someone who will allow others to bully her!
Xue Chuchu said calmly: "I left the rabbit for you to eat."
Xue Yuantong sighed softly: "Chu Chu, I won't eat rabbit today."
"Because I don't think I have the right to eat the little rabbit. Why should I eat it? Is it because I am stronger than it? Is this world a place where the strong prey on the weak?"
She was the epitome of a sad philosopher.
Xue Chuchu thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if you have the right to eat rabbits, but I know that if a beast has the opportunity to eat you, it will never doubt its rights, just like a mosquito will bite you without hesitation."
She added: "By the way, if you think you have no right to eat rabbits and think it's the law of the jungle, then do you have the right to eat potatoes? Why should plants be eaten by animals?"
When Xue Yuantong saw Xue Chuchu's beautiful face covered with oil, he started to talk a lot.
Xue Yuantong didn't want to fight anymore. She said proudly, "Because I love eating potatoes!"
Xue Chuchu pursed her lips, lowered her reserve to the same level as Tongtong, and challenged: "I like to eat too."
Well, now they are competing fairly.
……
At this time, in Changqingye Company, employee restaurant No. 3.
Hua Fengmei and Aunt Gu found a seat in a corner and were having a meal. Their food was equally good, with several specialties from all over the country and carefully prepared soups.
Hua Fengmei tasted the soup. Even though she had been working there for almost a year, she couldn't help but sigh: "Our company's treatment is really good!"
She used to work in factories and restaurants. The food there was just edible but tasteless. Some black-hearted bosses would serve cabbage and salty pickles all day long, which were simply not eatable.
Aunt Gu smiled and said, "Mr. Shao pays special attention to food."
As they were talking, the video on the big screen in the distance suddenly switched to a live broadcast of a court case. The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became suffocated.
An employee whispered, "Mr. Zuo from the sales department?"
The next sentence was very clear and straightforward. The court pronounced that Mr. Zuo had used his position to seek benefits for external companies and received bribes from them. After the court’s trial, he was sentenced to three years in prison…”
Hua Fengmei whispered, "It's been a long time since this happened."
Aunt Gu: "Good news."
"It seems that some employees are not feeling well." Hua Fengmei glanced at the people around her. Killing a chicken to scare the monkeys during a meal would definitely make people feel uncomfortable.
Aunt Gu shook her head: "I don't understand. Anyway, we just want the company to get better and better."
I heard that all the shares of Changqing Liquid belong to Mr. Shao, who has absolute final say and no one dares to get involved. Even if Mr. Shao wants to be the emperor of the company, no one dares to stop him.
