Siheyuan: After I moved in, the compound became a mess

Chapter 367 Qin Huairu's miserable situation

Qin Huairu reported to the kitchen and was directly assigned to Liu Lan.

However, Liu Lan, who was promoted to a master, did not have the awareness of being a master, and soon taught Qin Huairu her first lesson at work.

Before Qin Huairu could adapt, she was assigned a job.

Carry more than 300 cabbages from the warehouse and stack them under the kitchen wall.

Qin Huairu was confused. She didn't even know Liu Lan before this, let alone any hatred between the two. She had no choice but to turn to Sha Zhu for help.

However, Sha Zhu's words were not effective either. Liu Lan's words, "This is how I got here," directly blocked Sha Zhu's words.

Although Liu Lan is also a kitchen helper, Sha Zhu is not the team leader after all and cannot supervise her.

In other words, Sha Zhu is responsible for serving the leaders and cooking the dishes for the canteen, which is why he has some status in the kitchen.

Sha Zhu smiled and tried his best to persuade Liu Lan, and finally she reduced her workload by one third, but she still had to bring over 200 cabbages.

If there weren't so many people in the kitchen, Qin Huairu would definitely grab Sha Zhu's arm and shake him to death.

If it doesn't work, you can also use tear attacks.

Two hundred cabbages may not be a lot, but the warehouse is a bit far from the kitchen. Qin Huairu could carry three cabbages at a time at the beginning, but later she felt her legs were shaking and had to reduce the number to two.

This is completely different from her housework and laundry work at home. Although she grew up in the countryside, there are few times when she has to do so much work alone.

Qin Huairu worked until noon and felt like she was about to fall apart, but she still hadn't been able to carry all 200 cabbages.

It was Shazhu who helped her for a while after shaking the spoon and eating.

Only then did she stack the two hundred cabbages. Looking at the neatly arranged piles of cabbages, Qin Huairu felt like crying. No one told her that working was so hard!

And then, even more suffering is yet to come.

Although the kitchen did not have a holiday, the necessary procedures must be followed and a thorough cleaning must be done on the first day of work.

The result was that Qin Huairu felt completely dazed when she got off work and felt that there was no hope in life.

No need for more. If she is asked to help in the kitchen for a month, she will definitely be exhausted to death.

After returning home, Qin Huairu fell asleep on the kang without eating or taking off her clothes.

Jia Zhang, who was standing by, was dumbfounded and didn't dare to say a word. She made some cornmeal porridge on the stove for the three children and steamed some steamed cornbread, and that was enough for dinner.

At night, Yi Zhonghai strolled around the yard with a bag of noodles, but he didn't see Qin Huairu coming out. He couldn't go to her house to deliver the noodles, so how could he spend time with Qin Huairu alone? !

Yi Zhonghai finished his cigarette and had to carry the bag back home.

The next day, Qin Huairu forced herself to go to work despite her tired body.

She secretly vowed in her heart that she must adapt to this job as soon as possible.

However, when she arrived at the kitchen, Liu Lan assigned her some work, but she didn't make things difficult for her. It was just washing and peeling potatoes.

Even so, by noon, Qin Huairu's hands were shaking as she served the food. If you didn't know, you would think this woman did it on purpose.

In the afternoon, Qin Huairu took the opportunity to go to the toilet and ran to find Yi Zhonghai.

Still at the corner outside the workshop, Qin Huairu was crying with tears and snot.

In short, she had only one purpose, which was to hope that Yi Zhonghai could transfer her to the workshop as soon as possible. She didn't want to stay in the kitchen for even a single day.

Seeing Qin Huairu crying sadly, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly reached out to wipe her face. When his hand touched Qin Huairu's face, Yi Zhonghai was deeply touched and became more determined in his thoughts.

"Huai Ru, isn't there Zhu Zi in the kitchen? How can I let you get tired?"

Yi Zhonghai had seen Qin Huairu cry before, but the feeling he had now was completely different. Now he actually felt a little distressed.

"The workload in the workshop is too heavy. It's definitely not possible to ask you to come here now. No group is willing to accept an apprentice. Even though I have some prestige, this is related to the salary, and I don't have that much ability."

"How about this, I'll go to Zhuzi's place tonight, and we'll discuss it and help you think of a solution."

Yi Zhonghai finally coaxed Qin Huairu to leave after much persuasion. As soon as he sat down in the workshop, someone came over.

"Hey, Lao Yi, I just saw you talking to a woman outside, and the woman was crying, what's going on?"

Sun Guofu, the seventh-level fitter master in the workshop, sat down next to Yi Zhonghai with a gossipy look on his face and spoke.

These words startled Yi Zhonghai for a moment. It seemed that he could not go there again if anything happened in the future.

"Hey, what woman? That's Dongxu's wife. Dongxu left, so his wife came to take over. She went to the kitchen, but she was bullied as a newcomer, so she came to me."

Yi Zhonghai said it very naturally, "Dongxu is my apprentice, he is like my half son, and he just left like that, do you think I can ignore his family?"

Sun Guofu took two big gulps while holding the big teapot: "That's right, it's not easy for you to be a master. You have to take care of your apprentice's wife even though your apprentice is gone."

"There's nothing we can do. We can't just watch her family go hungry."

Yi Zhonghai responded casually.

Qin Huairu spent days like years in the kitchen. She finally made it to the end of her shift, but Liu Lan informed her that she could only go home after cleaning the floor.

Sha Zhu couldn't stand it and said a few words on Qin Huairu's behalf.

But it caused Liu Lan's dissatisfaction.

"Master He, you are the chef, so you are responsible for cooking. I am the kitchen assistant, and I will make sure that the dishes are prepared properly for you and the kitchen is cleaned up neatly so that you don't have to cook. We each have our own responsibilities."

Since Qin Huairu is my apprentice, she has to be under my care. I was also like this when I was under the master's care. I do this because I want her to graduate quickly. If you have any objections, you can ask the director for help. "

Sha Zhu was immediately silenced by Liu Lan's retort.

Qin Huairu almost cried. Shazhu had boasted so much before, but how come he was so unreliable at the critical moment?

In the end, Qin Huairu could only grit her teeth and clean up herself.

Sha Zhu felt guilty and took the initiative to clean up.

After dinner, Yi Zhonghai came to Sha Zhu’s house.

While greeting him, Sha Zhu complained that Liu Lan was too unkind.

Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment and said, "Zhu Zi, we have to think of a comprehensive solution. Huairu is really hard-working in the kitchen. I'm thinking about whether we can give her a lighter job."

Sha Zhu scratched his head and said, "Hey, Uncle Yi, if you have any ideas, just tell me."

Yi Zhonghai lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the factory warehouse may be short of staff. How about we ask Wang Dabao for help to transfer Huairu there?"

Sha Zhu's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea, but I don't know what Dabao will say. How about I go to the backyard for a while."
