Eight Hundred Women Can Also Do Great Things
Everyone in the cafeteria was taken aback by the piles of money in San Yuzhu's bag. They had never seen so much money before. It must be at least a few thousand dollars, Standing Political Commissar. Where did so much money come from?
Sister-in-law Lei was also taken aback. She was a country woman who had never traveled far. It was the furthest time in her life that she came to the military camp to collect her husband's ashes. When she saw so much money suddenly, her first reaction was fear. Subconsciously refused.
"I can't use this money, and my dad won't let me use it. Standing political commissar, please collect this money."
Chang Yuzhu smiled reassuringly at her, walked to the front of the stage, and said aloud the origin of the money.
Everyone was even more shocked. They never imagined that such an inconspicuous small factory could make so much money.
When Shen Jiao was trying to set up a factory, the men in the army were all dismissive. In their opinion, women are women.
But they didn't object. It's good for the old ladies at home to have a place to spend their time, so as not to be annoying at home all the time.
Later, these old ladies took their salaries and went home, and the men gradually began to pay attention, but they didn't take it too seriously, thinking that such a small factory was the wife of the head of the company, Shen Jiao, who was joking with a bunch of old ladies!
But now the women they usually look down on have suddenly taken out the money that men like them have earned for decades, and they have also solved the problem that they all have a headache. How can men dare to despise them?
It was then that they realized that these women had done great things when they weren't paying attention.
No worse than these seven-footed men!
Chang Yuzhu added: "It's not just the Lei brothers, but other people's debts are repaid by our garment factory. The younger brother and sister are right, the debt must be repaid, and we can't let the dead brothers feel at ease underground!"
Having said this, Chang Yuzhu's eyes were red, and the other officers and soldiers were also in tears.
The boy doesn't cry easily, just because he hasn't reached the sad place!
Thinking of those brothers who sacrificed, everyone's heart hurts like a knife.
Chang Yuzhu came to the table of the martyr's family with the money, solemnly placed the money on the table, stacked them in stacks, and took out a list from his pocket.
He recited one name after another, and every time he recited a name, some family members would burst into tears.
These are the names of the martyrs who sacrificed this time. After San Yuzhu finished reciting the names, he burst into tears.
Han Qixiu came over with three glasses of wine in his hand, and said to Sister-in-law Lei, "The first glass of wine toast to heaven and earth!"
After speaking, he spilled the first glass of wine on the ground and drank the second glass of wine in one gulp.
"The brothers who sacrificed for the second cup of wine, I, Han Qixiu, promise in front of all the brothers present that as long as I live for a day, I will be responsible for your life to the end!"
"It can't be done, the head of the regiment can't do it!"
Some of the family members stood up in panic and waved their hands again and again. Han Qixiu didn't say anything, but raised the third glass of wine at them, and then sighed.
"The third cup of wine, I, Han Qixiu, respect you, thank you for being righteous and not blaming me!"
An old man said with red eyes: "The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of every man. My son died for the country. That is his glory, and it is also the glory of our family."
The old man's youngest son died in this battle. He was only 22 years old and had just got married. He went to the battlefield less than two months after the wedding.
All the family members looked sad, everyone knew the truth, but no one could understand the pain of losing a loved one!
This farewell banquet everyone ate very heavy, and the good dishes that were not usually eaten now tasted like chewing wax, and it was tasteless to eat.
Shen Jiao deliberately sat next to Sister Lei,
Chatting with her: "Why did my sister-in-law leave in such a hurry?"
Sister-in-law Lei was a little embarrassed, and said softly, "I can't live without people at home. The old man is getting older, and the baby is still young."
Shen Jiao knew that Captain Lei's parents were in very bad health and had to take medicine for many years, which was why he owed so many foreign debts.
Two frail old people and three little babies are all supported by Sister Lei, a weak woman. Even if there is a pension, it is not a long-term solution!
"What's your sister-in-law's plan in the future? Can you tell me?" Shen Jiao asked.
Sister-in-law Lei smiled: "Go back to Haosheng to bring up the baby, and he is helping the old man for his father. Although his father is gone, I have to support the family for him!"
This woman's haggard face was full of determination, Shen Jiao couldn't help but feel awe, and wanted to help this woman even more!
"Can my sister-in-law do needlework?"
Sister Lei gave her a strange look, nodded and said, "Of course, none of our women can't do needlework."
Shen Jiao looked at the clothes on Sister Lei's body. It was an ordinary rural smock. At first glance, she knew that it was hand-sewn. This smock was finely stitched, and the cut was very ironed. It could be seen that Sister Lei's needlework was not bad.
After the banquet was over, Shen Jiao went to the military area guest house, where Sister Lei lived. Sister Lei was packing her luggage in the house. She was a little surprised to see Shen Jiao, and politely asked her to sit down.
"Sister-in-law, I won't lie to you anymore. Would you like to come to work in our factory?" Shen Jiao got straight to the point.
Sister-in-law Lei was stunned for a while. She didn't understand what Shen Jiao meant, and asked instead, "Go to work? I'm going to work in a factory. Can this work?"
Shen Jiao smiled and nodded: "Of course, it's our garment factory. Sister-in-law, your needlework is so good, there must be no problem."
Sister-in-law Lei was hesitant. Of course, she was tempted. She would get paid when she went to work. She was worried about how to raise children and the elderly!
But--
"I have to go back. I can't live without people at home, so why come to work?" Sister Lei was a little disappointed.
Shen Jiao, I thought about it for her: "sister-in-law, you can take the old man and the child over, I will arrange the house for you, the child will go to school without any problem, and the conditions here are better than in the countryside, the children will be able to have it in the future. a better future."
"But my hukou and the children are both in the countryside, so how can we live in the city?"
Sister-in-law Lei was really tempted. She didn't think about anything else, so she rushed to the future of the child. What else does she care about most now?
Isn't it the future of the child?
Shen Jiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, since I asked you to come over, I will naturally help you do everything well, but don't tell others about this."
The reason why she helped sister-in-law Lei was because she felt that this woman was too pitiful. Among so many family members, her conditions were the worst.
Other people are more or less supported by brothers. Only company commander Lei has no brothers. There are old people and young people. How can a weak woman like Sister Lei survive?
