In 2001, I worked in a hardware factory. The factory is located in Yanggong chau Industrial Zone, Sha Tin Town, the hardware factory is originally small, coupled with the high intensity of work. In our workshop, we hardly saw a single female worker. In other departments, there are occasional interviews for female workers, as if they have won the jackpot.
After sticking in the factory for a year, I was promoted to the leader of the group, although the work was easier, but the hardware factory was not the future I wanted. Coupled with the imbalance between yin and yang in the workshop, I, like my co-workers, have the mentality of getting by when a monk hits a clock one day and get by.
However, as a team leader, I should always look like a little bit. In order to motivate the workers and to spend boring time, almost every week, our colleagues in the group will meet to go to the food stall for drinks. I take the lead every time, and the fee is AA system.
Sitting at the table, many troubles and old things are left behind. Push the cup to change the cup, but also happy. After drinking a lot of wine, some of the workers were not happy and met for the second half of the activity. What they call the "second half" is often chosen according to their preferences. Watching movies, rollerblading; some people want to fall in love, so they go to the opposite large electronics factory to "squat", if you encounter good luck, you may be able to chat with girls. A few more such encounters, you may be able to get out of the ranks of singles.
Of course, among them, there are also workers who want to find some kind of happiness, so they run to Happiness Lane (the workers' own name), I don't know what method they used, anyway, when they return to the dormitory, they always look satisfied.
Usually, at this time, there are no more than three or two people left. I've never been interested in anything like this. So, we" "boring" people rushed to the factory together. Back in the dormitory, listen to Hu Xiaomei's night sky is not lonely, play chess, or read a part-time magazine to kill time.
It is said that the outside world is very wonderful, the outside world is also helpless, and the hardware factory is the most helpless. When chatting, I don't know who sighed, if only there was a female worker in our group. Everyone knew what he was thinking, so they laughed at him, you dream.
Suddenly, one day, joy fell from heaven, and the dream of the workers came true. When we got a female worker in our group, and when the clerk in the workshop brought her to us, we couldn't believe it was true.
However, she is not a young woman, and at first glance, she is one round older than us. However, in the vast green ocean, a little bright red suddenly appeared, even if the red was not bright enough, it was enough to make people rejoice.
The arrival of this female worker has increased everyone's enthusiasm. Usually, people who are not in a formal shape and do not pay attention to clothing also pay attention to the image. Everyone hoped that she would be able to sit next to her. When you have the opportunity, you desperately express yourself.
As a team leader, I have never been so upset about my work. However, such an embarrassment is happy in the end. Even if it is distressed, the spring breeze is also stirring in my heart.
After a week, I learned more about her.
In fact, she was only twenty-seven years old. However, she has dark skin and appears to be older than she really is. In this regard, she was very frank, saying that she was a rural person, working every day to bask in the sun, and over time, she became a black person. She laughed at herself as a "black sister-in-law" and asked us to call her that too. At that time, most of us were in our early twenties, and it was natural that a sister-in-law was not taking advantage.
It is said that a white cover is ugly, and the black sister-in-law is covered by the disadvantage of the skin because of the black skin, many rays and bright spots. If you look closely and closely, the skeleton of the black sister-in-law is actually very good-looking, although the eyebrows are thick, but there is light in the eyes, the water is brilliant, like speaking to whom, there is vivid content in it. In particular, the black sister-in-law's lips are thick and rolled up, which is very charming and sexy.
Hardware factories are paid according to piece count, which is also one of the job responsibilities of the team leader. The group leader is not only responsible for distributing products, but also for counting the production data of the workers. Individual timekeeping alone is not only troublesome, but also easy to cause unfair phenomena, easy to breed corruption, and cause resentment.
In order to avoid these problems, I thought of a way. Adopt the method of unified piece counting and then individual timing. The method of calculating the wage scientifically and reasonably has been recognized by everyone. I dare not say that our salary is the highest in the whole factory, and the top three can always be on the list. If that's all there is to it, as the team leader, I think I've done a pretty good job.
The black sister-in-law was assigned to the workshop, many processes are not familiar, and the speed is naturally slower. But I didn't lower her hourly unit price. The workers did not urge her. Not only did he not urge, but he also advised her to slow down and not to worry. When a colleague is idle, he comes to help her.
The black sister-in-law was very touched and did not know how to express her gratitude. The co-workers then said, "When you come to our group, you take care of us." Our activities have all burst out and the efficiency has improved a lot. To say thanks, we have to thank your sister-in-law.
When the co-worker said this, the black sister-in-law was relieved and said to the co-worker, You are so good. The worker listened, as if eating honey, sweet to the heart, but his face showed a hint of red, like a shy guy.
The black sister-in-law has the natural advantage of self-familiarity, and soon more than a dozen employees in our group are familiar with it. It was the day of our weekly reunion, and someone tentatively asked the black sister-in-law if she would participate. The black sister-in-law immediately nodded, of course.
At that party, we discussed, the black sister-in-law first came, the salary has not yet been received, can not let her pay, everyone squeezed a little more, so they put together her share of the money. After that, this became a conventional "rule". The first time, the black sister-in-law did not know, and the second time when she participated, she took out the money in person, but it could not defeat the mouths of our little brothers, so she had to take the money back.
Originally, we were afraid that the black sister-in-law was not good at drinking, so we gave her a bottle of drinks, but she saw that we were all drinking beer, and she was not happy, so she directly picked up the bottle of wine on my table and drank a large sip on her neck. The black sister-in-law is as bold as she is, and we are especially happy. A few of us men also lost the wine glass and directly took the bottle to blow.
That party was the most joyful and the longest time we had so many gatherings in a year. Thirteen people drank five cases of beer. After drinking, the workers who usually have the second half of the activity, this time they all obediently returned to the factory with the black sister-in-law.
When we were about to arrive at the factory gate, the black sister-in-law suddenly said to us, today's sister-in-law is happy, overwhelmed, drunk high, you must not be strange. However, although I was drunk, I always remembered that everyone was good to me. You take such care of your sister-in-law, and your sister-in-law has no recompense and does not know how to reciprocate. According to the etiquette of our hometown, let me express my heart with a hug.
Before I could understand it, my sister-in-law came up to me and gave me a hug first. Next, she gave hugs to other workers. The black sister-in-law was generous, without the slightest hint of awkwardness, and perhaps, as she said, it was one of the ways their hometown expressed gratitude, but we had never met it, and naturally there was some panic. However, there is a hint of happiness in the panic, and when I return to the dormitory, I will long for this hug to last longer.
After that, a co-worker secretly asked me, will the black sister-in-law give us a hug in the future? I can't answer, and I can't answer well. In my heart, I have a vague desire, looking forward to the early arrival of the second hug.
Before the second hug came, my sister-in-law borrowed money from me. She had something going on at home, but she didn't say anything about it, and wanted to borrow five hundred dollars from me. Five hundred yuan is not much, but it is equivalent to my half-month salary. As the leader of the black sister-in-law, she knew that she had encountered difficulties, and naturally could not avoid seeing her.
The hardware factory pays the salary on the last day of each month, and now there are three days before the salary, I let the black sister-in-law wait, pay the salary, I will give her the money. The black sister-in-law nodded gratefully, and I saw that there was light in those eyes.
The next day, the black sister-in-law took a leave of absence and wanted to go back to her hometown. The workers all came to send her, and each of them bought her some fruit drinks and instant noodles, which were full of several large bags.
The black sister-in-law waved goodbye to us. As I turned around, I saw tears in her eyes.
A few days later, it was the day of our gathering. Without the black sister-in-law, everyone was a little silent. Drinking drunkenly, he quickly returned to the factory.
On Monday, according to the black sister-in-law's holiday, she should come to work in the factory, but she has not returned to the factory. We were all worried but there was no phone number and couldn't get in touch. After waiting for a few more days, she still did not come, nor did she call to renew her vacation, could it be that something big happened in her home?
Everyone gathered to discuss, and I don't know who mentioned it, and the black sister-in-law borrowed five hundred yuan from him. This was like triggering a domino effect, and the workers said that the black sister-in-law also borrowed money from them, not much, the same five hundred yuan. At this point, it was like blowing up thunder. Five hundred for a person is not much, and a dozen together is a large amount.
Could it be that she was a liar, premeditated?
There are a lot of fish and dragons outside, everyone has it, and we naturally understand these truths. But to say that the black sister-in-law is a liar, we always have some disbelief. If you want to be a liar, you have to be old and beautiful. The black sister-in-law is old, although she still has some charm, it seems to be incompatible with these.
However, because of this, the black sister-in-law can win everyone's trust, right? Other opinions were made by the co-workers.
Scramble and fight, no result. I finally summed it up, and I said, forget it, even if she is a liar, as long as her family is okay, I will be willing and not care. Everyone saw me take a stand, stopped arguing, and dispersed.
In fact, we don't believe that the black sister-in-law is a liar. I was even vaguely looking forward to it, when she suddenly appeared in front of me one day.
Of course, the black sister-in-law did not appear at the hardware factory again, but one of the workers in the group found her trace.
That was a month later.
A co-worker had a fellow who worked in Inu, who had just rented a house some time ago and invited him to drink at his house, at that time, unlike now, there were rental houses everywhere. At that time, I made food in the rental house, and it was more ritualistic.
When the co-workers went to dinner, they accidentally found that the black sister-in-law also lived there. He did not dare to speak up, and quietly wrote down the room number where she lived. Back at the factory, I told me about the situation. I asked him if he had talked to any other co-workers about it. He replied no, and I asked him to stop talking and wait for us to understand the real situation and then come back to talk to them in detail.
When I arrived at Inu, I found the rental house, and I was about to go upstairs when I heard the voice of the black sister-in-law coming from inside, and I gently told the other party to walk slowly.
We quickly avoided it and hid in the shadows. When the black sister-in-law came out, she saw her helping a man out of the door, and the man, with his hands on the pillar, seemed to be seriously injured in his left leg.
The black sister-in-law took him out of the house and seemed to be doing recovery exercises. This sudden scene stunned us. It seems that the black sister-in-law has indeed deceived us. But at this moment, it seems that there is something wrong with coming to her for trouble.
When the black sister-in-law went far, we went upstairs, found the co-worker's hometown, asked him for help, and asked the landlord and neighbors about the black sister-in-law.
A kind neighbor told us that the man had been working at the construction site, and his partner's co-workers did not know what kind of desertion, and the scaffolding was not stable, causing the man to fall from a high altitude and fall into serious injury. The partner workers were afraid of responsibility and absconded in fear of crime.
The neighbors said that in addition, my co-workers and I had a kind of sadness that we were also fallen people at the end of the world, sighing at the impermanence of fate.
However, the neighbor said that if you want to say pity, this woman is the most pitiful. Her husband had committed a crime and ran away, and she heard about it, but she took the initiative to come and face the crime.
We didn't react for a while, and asked again, only to find out that the injured man was not the black sister-in-law's husband, but his husband who ran away in fear of sin. She took care of the man's life, but only to atone for her husband's sins.
Neighbors told us that last month, she was going to work and had an aunt to take care of him. Now that she has resigned, she has dismissed her aunt. She took a job nearby that didn't work overtime to take care of him.
I see! Thanking the neighbors, we went to the door of the black sister-in-law's room. I took a hundred dollars out of my pocket and stuffed it under the crack in the door. When the co-workers saw me like this, they also took out a red ticket.
On the way back to the hardware factory, I asked the co-workers, have you really seen the black sister-in-law? The co-worker said, didn't we see her together just now, and she was with the man? I stared into his eyes and asked again. He seemed to understand and said, I read it wrong, I haven't seen it. I haven't seen her since she left the hardware factory.
Half a year later, I received a remittance slip from a strange woman with a name of $500. The p.s. message is only three words, thank you for your kindness. Not only me, but all the workers received it.
It wasn't our party day, but I wanted to drink. I didn't drink much, but I quickly got drunk. Mumble in your mouth, Black sister-in-law, come, cheers, I finish drinking, you feel free! (Dictation: Mr. Zhu, Dictation: Three Frightened Fat Grandpa)
