Because the flour mill was not very profitable, it often took holidays. After a day of searching, Qiao Shichu took his son to Yu Changfan's furniture factory. The furniture factory was located in the southern suburbs. Because the land rent was cheap and the area was large, it was suitable for his kind of business.
There are more than thirty employees in the furniture factory, about ten of whom are women. Five older middle-aged women do the same dirty work as men, and five young female employees do clerical work.
Qiao Shichu had just carried little boy Yu Chengxuan to the office door of the furniture factory when a young girl in her early twenties carrying a water glass walked out. When she saw Qiao Shichu, she couldn't help but frown. He raised his eyebrows and said with an ugly face: "Who are you? How can you run around here? You have a child with you. If something happens, can you afford it?"
As soon as he spoke so rudely, Qiao Shichu immediately felt bad. You must know that the furniture factory usually does not allow outsiders to come in. Except for necessary processes that require confidentiality, other places allow door-to-door customers to visit. Yes, after all, who can’t decide whether to place an order after seeing the goods?
So when the young girl saw an outsider coming in, her first reaction was not to ask about the visitor's identity, but to scold him unceremoniously for coming. If Qiao Shichu was a customer who came to see the goods at this time, and was treated like this, then What else follows?
"Is this how you treat customers who come to your door?" Qiao Shichu asked coldly, "With such a bad temper, even customers who are willing to place an order will leave without looking back after seeing you, right?"
"Just you? What kind of customer are you? Of course I won't treat customers like this to you." The young girl sneered and looked at Qiao Shichu's whole body with side eyes, "Which customer would bring their children to see the goods? ?Isn’t this a joke? I take it you want to find a job, right? What a pity, our factory doesn’t recruit women with children!”
When Qiao Shi first saw her haughty and arrogant look, he laughed angrily. He didn't bother to argue with such a blind person, so he walked around her and walked quickly into the office with the child in his arms.
"Hey! What's the matter with you, woman? You can also enter the office? Get out of here..." When the woman saw Qiao Shichu actually bypassing her and walking in, the woman suddenly became angry and tried to stop her angrily. she.
"Daughter-in-law, you're here!" Yu Changfan, who was behind the desk, saw Qiao Shichu and Yu Chengxuan, his eyes lit up, he stood up and walked towards them.
When the young woman who followed Yu Changfan heard what Yu Changfan said, her face turned pale and she stammered: "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law?"
Yu Changfan glanced at her inexplicably and said, "This is my wife, what are you shouting about? Didn't I just let you out? Why are you still here?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Qiao Shichu again, only to find that her face was a little ugly and she seemed to be angry.
"Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you? Who made you unhappy?" he asked cautiously.
Qiao Shichu glared at him. At this time, the child Yu Chengxuan suddenly pointed at the woman following behind and said in a sweet voice: "That aunt scolded my mother, how bad she is!"
Yu Changfan opened his eyes suddenly, looked at Qiao Shichu, then at the young woman, and asked, "What on earth is going on?"
"Mr. Yu, my wife and I just had a misunderstanding. I thought she was one of those people outside looking for a job. I didn't expect her to be low-key. It's because I'm too sensitive. I'm sorry, madam, I shouldn't have stopped you just now, because before People who don't know what they are saying often come to our factory and make mischief, and I got a little angry. My tone of voice was not very good. I hope you won't be angry. I apologize to you..." I didn't expect this woman to be very eloquent. He immediately explained his previous behavior as a misunderstanding, and he was very adaptable. He apologized to Qiao Shichu as soon as he said he wanted to, and his speed of changing his face was top-notch.
Qiao Shichu ignored her at all, but said to Yu Changfan:
"I think her attitude towards people who come to the door is very bad. When she saw me, she scolded me and told me to get out of here. She also said that this is not a place where people like me can come in. If I were a customer who came to see the goods, Her attitude is like chasing away customers. Even if I am not a client but just looking for a job, she should not treat me with this attitude, because it will leave a bad influence on job seekers. If a bad reputation spreads, it will easily It will make our furniture factory have a bad image and bad reputation, and no one knows whether the people who come to apply for jobs will become our customers one day."
"No! No, that's not what I meant..." The young girl panicked when she heard Qiao Shichu's words and hurriedly defended, "Mr. Yu, please listen to my explanation. This is not how I treat my customers. I..."
"Okay, Xiao Wang, you don't need to say anything. I listened to your explanation about your absence from work and leaving early and didn't care about it. But this time, I can no longer tolerate the mistakes you made, so you I'm fired. You don't have to come tomorrow." Yu Changfan said with a cold face. He is usually a good-tempered person. If the problem is not too serious, he will give people a second chance, but this time Xiao Wang's behavior really caused trouble. Angry him.
"No, Mr. Yu, I can't live without this job. I will never do it again. Please give me another chance!" Xiao Wang was so anxious that he grabbed Yu Changfan's arm to beg for mercy.
Yu Changfan stepped aside, dodged her hand, and said, "I've given you several chances."
At this time, everyone else in the office also pricked up their ears and quietly looked over.
"Madam! I was wrong! I shouldn't have treated you like that just now! Please forgive me. I have a sick mother at home and a younger brother who is studying. I can't live without this job..." Xiao Wang saw that Yu Changfan could not plead for mercy. , began to plead with Qiao Shichu again, thinking that since she was a woman, her heart would be softer.
But unfortunately, Qiao Shichu was a hard-hearted woman and indifferent. She asked: "Since you need this job so much, why don't you cherish it?"
Xiao Wang was immediately choked and speechless. Yes, if work was really important to her, how could she dare to treat it so lightly?
In the end, Xiao Wang failed to stay in the furniture factory.
When Qiao Shichu came, she asked Yu Changfan to fire an employee, so no one thought she was a good talker. Some people who thought too much thought that her move gave all the employees a power and established her as the boss's wife. Majesty, showing one's status.
If Qiao Shichu knew about it, he would definitely think that they were overthinking it.
"Daughter-in-law, shall I show you around?" Yu Changfan took the child Yu Chengxuan from Qiao Shichu's arms and said to Qiao Shichu in a flattering manner.
"Okay." Qiao Shichu nodded. She came here a few times when the furniture factory was first built, but stopped coming after it got back on track, so she didn't know much about what it was like here.
