Rebirth of a chartered wife

Back at the factory, Fu Yunlai found that everyone's thoughts seemed to be wandering.

If you listen casually, you can hear everyone discussing the New Year.

Some people are talking about the situation of selling New Year’s goods at home, lamenting that they can’t get anything even if they have money and tickets.

As for whether the sigh is true or not... Fu Yunlai pretends not to see the indescribable pride of some people.

In addition, I am still thinking about the New Year benefits that the factory will give everyone in the next two days, and discussing the relatives who are leaving during the New Year and the elders who are visiting.

Of course, there is no shortage of people discussing new clothes!

Especially in the dormitory these days, there seem to be people showing off every night wearing new clothes prepared for the New Year.

Some people rarely make new clothes and want to let everyone know about them, while others are encouraged by their dormitory or other people to try them on first.

In short, the lively energy really makes Fuyunlai feel like the New Year is coming.

It finally diluted the sadness that had gripped the country some time ago.

Soon, it was the day of the New Year holiday.

Today’s Spring Festival holiday is not as long as it would be in later generations.

Factories like theirs, which are not so busy this season, can still take three consecutive days off.

Some factories that are busy during this season, or even factories that cannot leave people all year round, can have a family reunion dinner, which is already good!

After getting off work in the afternoon, Fu Yunlai carried the benefits distributed by the factory and walked out along with the flow of people.

Outside the factory, there were many more people and bicycles coming to pick up family members today.

The shoe factory is also a relatively large factory in Nan City. The factory's welfare benefits are very good. However, this year's employee benefits during the Chinese New Year did not make everyone particularly satisfied.

Despite this, most of us are still happy about the upcoming Spring Festival.

There was nothing we could do. The union officials in the factory were already at the workshop trying to reassure people.

It is said that the reason for not being able to order meat in large quantities from the slaughterhouse this year is because there is a policy from above. It is said that the supply and marketing cooperative will increase the supply during the Chinese New Year this year. Each person can exchange for two taels of meat more, and each household can get one kilogram of meat. capped.

Not to mention how rare these two ounces of meat are, the number of people eating the food supply in the entire Nan City is enough to scare people to death.

No wonder major factories have canceled one of the essential benefits they could offer their employees every year.

But the factory didn’t treat everyone badly!

After Fu Yunlai saw her mother's figure in the crowd, she quickly rushed over with the oil in her hand.

When Liu Xiumei was waiting at the factory gate, she had already seen what other employees in the factory were carrying.

Seeing my daughter's careless movements, I couldn't help but take two steps forward, took the initiative to take the things, and then put them away carefully.

"As for that?" Fu Yunlai looked at her mother's movements speechlessly.

It seems that she is not so cautious about her daughter!

Liu Xiumei gave her daughter a rude look, and then motioned for her to get on the bike quickly.

There were really too many people at the entrance of their factory today. If we stay here any longer, we might have to squeeze in when we go out later.

When I got home, I looked at the benefits each family brought home.

Sure enough, this year no one in the factory could spare one or two taels of pork as welfare for employees.

However, there are only a few factories that can produce oil without meat like Qianjin Shoe Factory.

Fu Yunlai thought about the discussion after the comrades from the labor union in the factory left, and felt that it made sense. Seeing Fu Yunlai burying his head in thought, he smiled. Fu Manman couldn't help but push her: "Why are you so unhappy alone? Hurry up and share it with us."

Fu Yunlai glanced subconsciously in the yard. Her father had not gone out to the verandah to chat with anyone yet. Even if everyone had finished eating earlier, they were still far away from her home.

She felt relieved and said softly: "I heard from my colleagues in the factory that our factory was able to obtain oil because we prioritized the completion of tasks related to a certain farm."

Hearing his sister mention the farm, Fumanman suddenly realized that no wonder other factories had no meat or oil. It turned out that the shoe factory solved the problem with raw materials.

I don’t know if other factories haven’t thought of this, or if the products they produce are not suitable for use in such a place.

Fumanman sighed with some regret.

This year, the textile factory was also very angry because of this incident.

However, they did not bother with other New Year benefits. Instead, they directly replaced the funds originally used to buy meat for employee benefits into production materials.

After working overtime, the textiles were finished, and benefits were distributed to employees.

Speaking of which, I don’t know how many people would envy such benefits.

After all, like some big families nearby, almost the whole family works in a textile factory. This wave of welfare is probably enough to make two sets of clothes.

But on days like the Chinese New Year, when I was originally looking forward to using the benefits from the factory to put some meat on the table for my family, I became more entangled.

But it doesn’t matter. I heard it’s because they have increased the supply for the New Year. Even if I get up in line tomorrow morning, I can always buy this meal of meat.

This arrangement is also indispensable on the Fu family's dining table. Fu Manhai's eyes widened when he heard Fu Manhai patting his chest and saying that he would line up after eating.

Although this day is indispensable at this time of year, even every month in order to buy more refined grains, or the non-staple food station supplies items that are not often available, you still have to get up early and line up.

But is it too early to start tonight?

Although Fu Yunlai didn't say these words, her overly surprised look clearly showed what she was thinking.

Fu Manhai explained to his sister with some pride: "The sudden increase in supply is definitely not a small matter. If you are at the back of the queue, although you won't be unable to buy it, you don't know how long it took to get it... ...We’re having a family reunion dinner tomorrow! Doesn’t that delay things?”

Most of the other people in the family nodded. Even if Fu Yunlai felt it was not necessary, he would not dare to speak again.

But when Fu Manhai went out, Fu Yunlai couldn't help but follow him as an excuse to help him get something.

When she saw that a dozen or so people had lined up, she had nothing to say.

She saw that those people were just like her brother, not only wearing layers after layers, but also putting on the thickest cotton-padded jackets at home. In addition, some also brought a roll of reed mats, obviously ready to sleep. Stand in line.

Fu Manhai, who only brought a big cotton-padded jacket, a stool and a bag, looked at his sister very hesitantly when he saw this situation.

He wanted to go back with the stool and find his own reed mat.

He also brought a large fertilizer bag specially, whether it was padded or covered, it would keep out the wind.

But at this time, leaving his sister alone... but leaving no one behind. According to the current situation, when he comes back, he will have to wait in line behind at least ten or twenty people.

While Fu Manhai was still struggling, Fu Yunlai had already taken the initiative to snatch the stool from her brother's hand: "I'll take it back and change it!"

Don't think she couldn't see clearly because the light wasn't bright enough. Her brother could hardly move his eyes away from those people's mats.

Moreover, there are obviously many people in the team who are as excited as Fu Manhai.

But most of them came alone, and no matter how tempted they were, they didn't want to go out of their way to come early and walk around a few steps back.
