Chapter 649: Part 3: Chaste and Virtuous Woman
Chapter 649: The Third Thing: Chaste and Virtuous Woman
Just as Qin Huairu was about to return home disappointed, Yi Zhonghai called Qin Huairu to stop.
When everyone heard this, they thought it was some kind of instruction and no one took it seriously.
After all, Jia Dongxu had just died, and no one could have imagined that anything disgusting would happen.
Qin Huairu followed Yi Zhonghai into the Yi family.
"Xiao Qin, Dongxu is gone. How are you going to live in the future?"
Qin Huairu was stunned. Didn't I ask you this question myself? You haven't given me an answer until now.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Uncle, I don't know how to live my life now. I just want to get the baby out of my belly first."
"As for the future, let's take it one step at a time."
Listening to Qin Huairu's sad thoughts, the aunt didn't know how to comfort her.
"Xiao Qin, do you have any plans to go out?"
Hearing this, Qin Huairu immediately flew into a rage: "Uncle, who do you think I am, Qin Huairu? Dongxu is good to me, I can't let him down."
"No matter what, I have to raise Dongxu's child!"
Seeing Qin Huairu was extremely angry, Yi Zhonghai apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that. I feel relieved that you think so."
"Since you want to live with the Jia family, don't worry. Dongxu is my apprentice, you are my apprentice's wife, and Banggeng is your son."
"I won't ignore your family. Bury Dongxu tomorrow. I'll go to the factory to ask for you. Dongxu's case is similar to Lao Jia's. There will be no less compensation and work."
Yi Zhonghai immediately told the story of Lao Jia.
Qin Huairu was stunned. She didn't expect that after Lao Jia died, the factory would pay a one-time compensation of 400 yuan. She had never seen so much money in her life.
Jia Zhang was really stingy. She only spent 5 yuan to get Jia Dongxu to marry her.
No wonder Jia Zhang always has money in her hands. It turns out that all the money was swallowed up by Jia Zhang. The key is that she also receives Jia Dongxu's 3 yuan pension every month. A little bit adds up to a lot.
Listening to Yi Zhonghai's story, Qin Huairu was delighted. Life was still manageable. She nodded and bowed to thank him:
"Thank you, uncle. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would do."
"It's okay. Dongxu is my apprentice. This is what I should do. It's getting late. You should go back and have some rest. We still have a lot to do tomorrow."
Qin Huairu nodded and then walked back home.
When Jia Zhang saw Qin Huairu coming back with a happy face, she hurriedly asked how things went.
Qin Huairu said some nice words, which immediately made her smile.
the next day.
Seeing that there was no one available, Yi Zhonghai was too lazy to buy a coffin, so he just bought an urn and put Jia Dongxu's ashes in it.
Then, they took Bang Geng and Jia Zhangshi to bury Jia Dongxu's ashes next to Old Jia.
After everything was done, they returned to the yard together.
Then he went to the factory without stopping to find out about Jia Dongxu's follow-up situation.
A section chief in charge of production safety received him and said, "The factory is ready. Please ask Engineer Yi to call Jia Dongxu's family members so that we can sit down and discuss the results."
As for the compensation for Jia Dongxu, it will be directly copied from the compensation given to Lao Jia.
I wouldn't say they are exactly the same, but I can say they are almost exactly the same.
Immediately, Yi Zhonghai ran back to the yard and took Qin Huairu to the factory.
After all the hard work, I was exhausted and out of breath.
The section chief smiled and said, "Engineer Yi really works very hard."
As soon as the work started, Yi Zhonghai asked for leave repeatedly. If he had not been an eighth-level worker, he would have been criticized.
Yi Gong heard the meaning behind it: "After all, he is my apprentice, I have to care about his affairs. The same thing would be the same if it happened to other masters."
Without further ado, the section chief got straight to the point: "Okay, next, on behalf of the steel mill, I will make an investigation into the Jia Dongxu incident and a compensation plan."
"After investigation, it was found that Jia Dongxu's death was caused by the breaking of the wire rope used for driving."
"After research by the steel mill, the compensation plan for Jia Dongxu is as follows:"
"First, according to the disability compensation standard, compensate the family of the person concerned with a pension of RMB 500."
"Second, pay RMB 100 for the deceased's funeral expenses."
"Third, the deceased Jia Dongxu's work position will be inherited by his family, and they will start taking over next month."
After the section chief made the announcement, Qin Huairu did not move, and all that echoed in her mind was money, money, money.
"Uncle, what did he say? How much compensation?"
Looking at Qin Huairu's silly look, Yi Zhonghai repeated it again.
"The factory compensated me 600 yuan in total, and I got a job quota. I will take over the job next month."
"How much more? 6600? That much?"
Qin Huairu had never heard of so much money in her life, and the key point was that the money was given to her.
When the section chief saw Qin Huairu's performance, he smiled in his heart and thought that this matter should be able to be concluded smoothly.
Someone died after the New Year, so it’s best not to publicize this matter.
The section chief pressed the issue, “Family members of Jia Dongxu, if you agree to this compensation plan, please sign this agreement.”
As he spoke, he took out another document.
The compensation claim is the same as stated, but with one thing.
Jia Dongxu's death was characterized as an accident.
Yi Zhonghai said: "This is not right, how could Dongxu die accidentally? He was clearly crushed to death."
In response, the section chief smiled and said, "The specific cause of Jia Dongxu's death was because he was lazy and slept in the warehouse instead of working, which indirectly led to his death."
"His death is not entirely due to the steel mill. Our factory also considered its reputation. His death in an accident is good for our reputation. There is no need to be fussy about it."
"If you really want to haggle, the compensation might not be that much, and you might not be able to keep this job. Master Yi doesn't want to have a lazy apprentice under his name, don't you think?"
"Uncle." Qin Huairu didn't expect there to be such a reason. She didn't want to resist in her heart and gestured to Yi Zhonghai slightly.
For the sake of his reputation, Yi Zhonghai didn't want to bother about it too much.
"It was indeed an accident."
"Okay then, let's just sign and put our fingerprints on it," the section chief said with a smile.
"Okay!" Qin Huairu couldn't wait to sign and put her fingerprints on it, in duplicate.
The section chief confirmed that there was no problem with the compensation plan and directly took out 600 yuan and gave it to Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu took the money and compensation plan and returned home happily.
"Mom, Dongxu's compensation has arrived."
"It's coming down! How much?"
"Twenty dollars."
Qin Huairu was so overwhelmed by the good news that she took out all the compensation money at once.
A small stack of big black tens appeared in front of her, instantly filling Jia Zhang's eyes, and her ten fingers shook violently.
The next moment I stuck to the money and took a deep breath in the pile of money. Fortunately, there is not so much chemical pollution now.
After the celebration, Qin Huairu started talking about business.
Come up with a compensation plan and show it to Jia Zhang. By the way, the top priority is work.
"Mom, I'm going to take over the job next month, will you go?"
"I'm going? No way, no way. How can I go at my age?"
"Oh, my back hurts so much, I can't take it anymore, I have to go back to bed and lie down for a while~"
Jia Zhang acted in an exaggerated and artificial manner, showing that her whole body ached, and screamed "ah, ah, ah!", so people who didn't know her would really think she was sick.
Seeing this, Qin Huairu blushed with anger: "Mom, if you don't go to take over, do you want me to do it? I'm still pregnant and will give birth in a month. Do you want me to go to work?"
"If something happens to me, will I still want the baby in my belly?"
"Do you want to? I'll go to the hospital and get it done right away."
"No!" When Jia Zhang heard Qin Huairu threatening her with the child, she naturally refused to agree.
This is Jia Dongxu's posthumous child, nothing must happen to him. If it's a boy, she will die without a word to face Old Jia and Jia Dongxu. She was unwilling to go to work, so she said in a friendly manner:
"Daughter-in-law, I'm already old. How can I do the heavy work in the workshop? Isn't this going to cost me my life?"
Jia Zhang was also panicked. When old Jia died, Jia Dongxu took over. Now the family has no pillar. What should she do?
She was reluctant to do housework, let alone the heavy work in the steel mill.
Qin Huairu was also panicking: "What should I do? The people in the factory said that I have to take over the job next month. What if I don't go and lose my job?"
Jia Zhang took advantage of the situation and said, "Then I don't care. I'm too old and I won't go."
"Mom!" Qin Huairu was almost angry to death. She pinched her philtrum and took a deep breath.
"Okay, if you don't go, I won't go either. Let's just sell our jobs for money. If we don't have jobs in the future, our Jia family will starve to death!"
Being tortured and threatened, Jia Zhang got angry and retorted: "Sell it if you want, I have plenty of money, I won't starve to death if I save money!"
After saying that, he quickly put the 600 yuan compensation into his arms.
"Then there's my share!" Qin Huairu joined in the money grabbing.
The two of them were fighting for the thing, neither of them giving in.
Yi Zhonghai heard the noise coming from the Jia family, and when he came over he saw two people fighting over money, and he was immediately speechless.
Two brainless women, two idiots who could have gone into a museum, without any foresight.
"Okay, stop arguing!"
"Uncle, you have to make the decision for me. My mother doesn't want to go to work."
Yi Zhonghai scolded, "Stop talking. I know everything. Are you two stupid? Do you know how much a replacement position can be sold for? 1,800!"
"It sounds like a lot of money, but the money will eventually run out! What will you do when it runs out? Do you plan to find a job then? Are you two a good match?"
"Besides, what's the use of just having money? You two don't have urban hukou. Do you know how much you need to spend on food every month? At least 100 yuan!"
"A few hundred dollars will only last you less than a year. One or two years is fine, but what will you do after three or five years?"
Listening to Yi Zhonghai's careful calculation, the two couldn't help but be shocked: "What, so much? Impossible! How can Dongxu make so much money in a month?"
Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly. Since Jia Dongxu was dead, he didn't mind exposing the dirty things Jia Dongxu had done.
"Impossible? You two don't think Dongxu relies on his salary to support his family? He has been reselling waste materials from the steel mill for more than a year."
"It's because of this job that he can support his family. If I hadn't helped to hide what he did, he would have been caught and shot by the police long ago!"
Yi Zhonghai took this opportunity to mix in his own private agenda and create something out of nothing.
"Ah!" The two people's good image of Jia Dongxu was instantly shattered, and they also gave up the idea of selling their jobs.
"What should we do, Old Yi? You have to help our family." Jia Zhang rolled and crawled and grabbed his thigh.
Qin Huairu also looked up at him pleadingly.
Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai felt slightly proud that the small Jia family was in control.
"Let me think about it?" He then pretended to be trying his best to think.
After a while, he clapped his hands and said, "I have a solution that is not a solution. Jia Zhang, you go to the factory and make a scene, and say that you didn't negotiate with your daughter-in-law."
"Take the job issue as an example. Since the steel mill can pay you so quickly, they must be ready to negotiate terms."
"As long as we make a fuss and tell them about our hardships, the steel mill will definitely agree."
Yi Zhonghai swore so confidently, but unexpectedly he actually guessed it.
"Really?" The two were in disbelief.
"Even if it's fake, there's nothing you can do about it now."
"Okay, I'll go make trouble now."
After saying that, Jia Zhang went to the steel mill in a rage.
Qin Huairu stood up and wanted to follow, but was stopped by Yi Zhonghai: "Don't go now, it will be difficult for the two of you to talk when the time comes."
"Okay." Qin Huairu nodded and watched the two leave.
Once they arrived at the steel mill, the two found the section chief again.
Jia Zhang slumped down on the ground and yelled, "The steel mill is trying to kill me. It's fine if it killed my son, but now it wants to kill me too!"
"It's so unfair. I can't live a good life at my age. I won't live if I'm here!"
"Hey, Auntie, what are you doing? Engineer Yi, please help stop her." The section chief was terrified when he saw Jia Zhang trying to commit suicide.
"Auntie, if you have something to say, let's talk it over. You don't have to commit suicide!"
After a while, with Yi Zhonghai's "kind" help, the three of them sat down again to discuss.
"Boss, I'm old and retired, why do you still want me to work?"
"I didn't ask you to work. Isn't that woman capable of working?"
"My daughter-in-law is still pregnant, and you let her work. What if something happens? You are going to cut off the roots of my Jia family."
The section chief was immediately horrified, feeling his life was threatened: "What do you want?"
After a "friendly" conversation, the section chief finally understood Jia Zhang's demands and requirements.
Regarding the Jia family's situation, the leaders reached a consensus to try to make a big deal out of a small matter.
If compensation is due, it should be paid; if reasonable demands can be met, they should be met.
The factory naturally found out about the Jia family's situation. Qin Huairu definitely couldn't come because she was pregnant, and Jia Zhang was injured and old, so she couldn't come either.
"So that's what happened. I just remembered to talk about it when Yi Gong and the girl left. And since you guys are here again, I told you the factory's decision."
"Cough cough~"
"In view of the situation of Jia Dongxu's family, the steel mill decided:"
"First, assign the job quota to Qin Huairu."
"Second, since Qin Huairu is pregnant, the steel mill will allow Qin Huairu to come back to work after she finishes her confinement, which is three months later."
"I wonder if you are satisfied with this decision?"
"Satisfied, satisfied." Jia Zhang nodded repeatedly, the purpose of her visit had been achieved.
The same was true for Yi Zhonghai, but he didn't expect that something else would happen after Qin Huairu came to take over the job.
"Or you should write this down, otherwise I will feel uneasy." Jia Zhang said worriedly.
"Okay, then I'll write a supplementary agreement, okay?"
"Chengchengcheng."
The section chief wrote another supplementary agreement, also in duplicate, and signed and stamped it.
"Okay, any other questions?"
"Nothing."
Jia Zhang happily took the agreement home and showed it to Qin Huairu.
"Great."
Jia Zhang looked at Qin Huairu's happy expression, especially her bulging belly, and suddenly felt uneasy. Her face changed and she warned him.
"Qin Huairu, let me make it clear to you first. Once you enter my Jia family, you will be the one kneeling to my Jia family even if you die. Don't think that you can remarry just because Dongxu is gone. You can't!"
"As long as I am still here, you will not be tolerated to mess around. Remember, this job was given to Banggeng by Dongxu. Now it's up to you to do it first. Don't even think about taking over my job. Do you hear me?"
"Mom, how can you say that to me?" Qin Huairu said aggrievedly.
"Hmph, don't act pitiful in front of me, it's useless! I've seen a lot! You're just like Dongxu, you have to give me 3 yuan a month for retirement after you go to work, do you hear me?"
"I heard it." Qin Huairu couldn't help but shed tears of grievance.
Yi Zhonghai watched and admired Jia Zhang for finally doing something right.
"Humph!"
Only after hearing Qin Huairu's agreement did Jia Zhang calm down.
From then on, the Jia family officially began a life of two widows.
