Chapter 135: Chapter 135 Don’t Bully Others

The car had barely stopped when Tang Chuxia jumped off and ran off, dragging Yu Meiyu with her.

You couldn’t blame her for being so hasty; the shouting of her little brother behind her gave her no reason to stop.

Fortunately, they made it to the workshop, where her master was waiting for her. He called her over excitedly as soon as he saw her.

"Young lady, hurry on over!"

Tang Jianbing caught up, looking absolutely stifled, but couldn’t say anything, only standing to the side and watching.

Despite Tang Chuxia not being very reliable when it came to tricking her brothers, she was extraordinarily serious when it came to dealing with matters at hand.

After she examined the situation thoroughly, circling the machine for some time and having the old masters make some components again, she determined what the problem was and then directed Tang Jianbing to work.

She was anything but polite in her commands, and even the old masters couldn’t help but marvel at her prowess.

A young girl fiddling around such a large machine—tinkering here, tapping there, then having them make machine parts, and it really worked.

Now, everyone was speechless.

The admiration in their eyes for Tang Chuxia only grew warmer.

Considering that much of the equipment nowadays is brought in from abroad, often outdated or missing critical components, what does a person who understands machinery and can repair it represent?

It was clear without even thinking about it.

You could tell just by looking at how excited the factory bosses were.

"Young lady, would you like to work at our factory? I can get you a position as a senior technician!"

The factory director tried hard to invite Tang Chuxia.

While others were scheming to get a factory job, Tang Chuxia here was getting a direct offer, but she still wasn’t taking it.

She shook her head straightforwardly.

"No, I won’t!"

She didn’t want to be stuck with machinery.

"How about working in the office?"

The factory director kept persuading, and although Tang Chuxia could see he was genuinely inviting her, she didn’t like dealing with machinery every day. She could only suggest, "I can be a technical consultant. Whenever you have a problem, you pay me to handle it, but I won’t be working at the factory regularly."

Though the term "consultant" was new to the factory, they understood what Tang Chuxia meant.

Amid the eager nodding of the old masters, the factory director still asked one more question, "Why don’t you want to work here?"

Tang Chuxia chuckled, "I still have aspirations to go to college!"

It wasn’t that she really wanted to go to college; it was purely because she didn’t want to work. Going to college was the best way to continue slacking off for a few more years.

The factory director got it, immediately saying, "That’s a good ambition. If you, Xiao Tang, get into college, we’ll still keep a position open for you at our factory and welcome you to join us formally anytime!"

Tang Chuxia: ...

Some workers, already envious, looked at her with complex expressions in their eyes.

They had to rely on taking over someone else’s position to get an opportunity, whereas Tang Chuxia was handed the offer directly.

It’s maddening to compare oneself with others!

Never mind the envious workers, let’s talk about Tang Jianbing’s master, who dragged Tang Chuxia to the cafeteria for a meal.

"Young lady, why are you so silly? The factory director offered you a position; you should take it—even if it’s just for the salary until you go to college. Are you just going to idle at home before the college entrance exams?"

The master was almost in distress. No matter how he tried to hint to Tang Chuxia earlier, she pretended not to notice.

Tang Chuxia looped her arm through the old master’s and explained to Tang Jianbing, "Of course, I know it’s nice to collect money, but it’s also confining. Look, I charged one hundred yuan for one repair guidance. But if I worked here, how much would your old salary be? Is it one hundred?"

The master was silenced.

His salary was still less than one hundred yuan.

"Besides, I know quite a lot. If other factories invite me to check out their machinery in the future, wouldn’t I need to go through the leaders’ approval? Wouldn’t there be a chance that those costs get overlooked by our ’brother factories’, and the goodwill actually belongs to our great factory director?"

She was calculating, tallying on her fingers.

Her master laughed; he couldn’t help it, as it turned out the young lady was quite astute.

"Aren’t you worried about the issue of going to the countryside?"

Tang Chuxia waved her hand dismissively, "That’s been taken care of. My Third Brother is in the military, and I was born physically weak. I made some contributions before, it was even reported in the newspapers. I don’t believe they would have the heart to disregard my wellbeing and force me to go to the countryside!"

But she laughed again, "Of course, even if I had to go to the countryside, would you worry about me working myself to death? With just a little tinkering with some farming tools, do you think I would lie down and take it?"

This was something Tang Chuxia hadn’t thought of before, and it was only after Tang Jianbing worked in the machinery factory that she gained some knowledge about the current development of large agricultural machinery and realized how behind the times it was.

She had the ability to dismantle their internal structures in her mind after just one glance, and she could indeed draw some of the farming machinery she had seen before from memory, which was more than enough for her to lie down on the job.

So, she summed up that her only use in this era was to take good care of her parents for the original owner, to find good wives for her brothers, and to carve out a different future for the original owner’s life. As for herself, that was just a minor goal, such as hooking up with handsome men!

That was how she positioned herself.

Eating and drinking, laying it all out, she was a life winner.

Dreams were full, but reality was harsh.

When she got home, her little brother mentioned this to Madam Tang. Madam Tang twisted Tang Chuxia’s ear and shouted, "Tang Chuxia, you actually turned down a formal job for money!!!"

Tang Chuxia followed Madam Tang’s force, careful for her ear.

"Mom, I’m doing this to try for a college degree!"

What Tang Chuxia said wasn’t wrong, but compared to a formal job, it was pitiful.

College graduates weren’t in demand.

"Don’t give me that. Let me tell you, there’s no negotiating this. You can work while you prepare for the exam!"

Madam Tang was about to nag more when Tang Chuxia directly took out ten banknotes and handed them to her.

That was what held actual value.

Madam Tang had seen that much money before; in fact, she wasn’t really in need of it. But this was the first time her daughter had handed her money.

"Mom, believe me, I can earn a decent amount without a job, and the key thing is, I can spend time at home with you!"

She massaged Madam Tang’s shoulders, her face full of flattery.

Madam Tang put the money back in Tang Chuxia’s pocket, "Mom doesn’t need your money. Keep it for your expenses. But listen to me, you can’t give up this job. So many people are eyeing it!"

Tang Chuxia was afraid of Madam Tang’s words. Just then, she saw Tang Jianjun return and immediately shouted, "Second Brother, how did Qin Zhan’s mother’s surgery go?"

Madam Tang couldn’t keep nagging and looked towards her second son.

Tang Jianjun sat down and drank water voraciously, "Not too good! The surgery was completed, but whether she can pull through depends on the next couple of days."

Madam Tang sighed along with him.

She muttered, "It’s all fate."

In that era, having surgery really carried a high risk.

Tang Chuxia thought of Qin Zhan and couldn’t help but feel compassionate, "Is Qin Zhan only left with his mother?"

Tang Jianjun nodded, "If his mom doesn’t make it this time, Qin Zhan will probably be devastated."

"I’ll go to the kitchen and prepare some food. You can take it to him later. Being sick wears people out, and those taking care of the sick suffer even more."

Madam Tang went to the kitchen, and Tang Chuxia asked in a low voice, "Second Brother, you’re back. Where’s Gu Beihuai?"

Tang Jianjun gave her a strange look, "Don’t you bully him!"
