Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1625: Chapter 1288:

There’s no need to offend anyone here.

Based on this, Kang Li couldn’t help but say a few nice words.

”Is that so? Not to brag, but in our village, your Auntie here is famous for being quick and tidy with work.” At this moment, Cui the Loudspeaker was a living example of ”calling you fat and you start breathing heavily.”

”Oh my! Cui the Loudspeaker, what are you bragging about?”

Li Daniu walked over from a distance, looking Cui the Loudspeaker up and down and said, ”Just look at your clothes; they haven’t been washed for ten, maybe eight days, right?

And look at your hands, pitch black, and your hair—though it’s not as messy as a bird’s nest, it’s still quite the sight. With this look, if you enter Li Bao’s factory, you’ll not only embarrass yourself but also the factory. I suggest you don’t join the fun!”

Cui the Loudspeaker looked upset: ”Who are you saying hasn’t washed their clothes for ten, maybe eight days? Li Daniu, you don’t need to put me down to elevate yourself. Just look at you; how are you any different from me?”

”Putting you down to elevate myself? Cui the Loudspeaker, do you really think I need to? Let’s stand together and ask Li Bao to say who’s messy and who’s slovenly.”

Hearing Wang Chunhua’s words, Kang Li didn’t expect to get caught in the crossfire. Just as she opened her mouth to try to talk them down, Cai Xiufen came out of the courtyard. She looked at Cui the Loudspeaker and then at Wang Chunhua: ”What are you doing? If you want to argue, don’t do it in front of my Li Bao. People who don’t know might think my daughter did something to you.”

”Sister Xiufen, I’m not arguing with the Loudspeaker. We’re just chatting.”

Wang Chunhua pulled a smile onto her face.

”Yes, yes, yes. Wang Chunhua and I are just chatting; it has nothing to do with your Li Bao.” She still wanted to work in the factory run by their daughter and didn’t dare to offend them.

Cui the Loudspeaker and Wang Chunhua exchanged a smile with Cai Xiufen.

”I could hear everything you said at my courtyard gate while I was inside. Let me tell you, you should consider your age. When the factory starts hiring, do you really think you can compare to your daughters-in-law or those eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls?”

Cai Xiufen’s words hit Cui the Loudspeaker and Wang Chunhua hard, and they looked at each other, unsure of how to respond.

”Alright, it’s windy outside, you better head back home. My daughter and I won’t see you off.”

With that, Cai Xiufen beckoned Kang Li into the courtyard.

In the main room, Kang Li looked helpless: ”Mom, your words were too blunt.”

”Those old ladies have thick skin. If you don’t explain things clearly, they might just think they can fly to the heavens!” Cai Xiufen didn’t feel her words were harsh. She snorted coldly and continued: ”Your Auntie Cui and Auntie Wang are only two or three years younger than me. Can you really hire such elderly people when your factory starts recruiting?”

”Mom’s right; your daughter has learned her lesson.”

Kang Li nodded with a smile, agreeing with Cai Xiufen.

”By the way, what did Chunmei come to see you about?” Cai Xiufen suddenly changed the topic, and before Kang Li could answer, she continued: ”Could it be that she, like your Auntie Cui, wants to use your connections to get into the factory?”

”That was her intent, but I didn’t agree directly. After all, there’s a recruitment process at the factory. If I start making exceptions, who can say that others in management won’t follow suit in the future?

Moreover, without rules, everything falls apart. As long as Chunmei meets the hiring requirements, she can join the factory without me saying a word.”

After listening to Kang Li, Cai Xiufen nodded: ”That’s how it should be. Otherwise, if you open this door today, once recruitment starts, there will undoubtedly be many people coming to our house seeking help.”

Who doesn’t have a few troublesome relatives?

Even if there are no close relatives, what about distant ones?

So, as her daughter said, without rules, there is no order. Some lines just can’t be crossed.

”Don’t worry, mom. After the factory is built, relevant regulations will be published, like factory rules and reward and punishment systems. With these constraints, even if someone comes to us hoping to use the backdoor, it’ll be in vain.”

Kang Li remained calm, but Cai Xiufen was reassured by her words.

Helping each other as relatives is what we should do, but that doesn’t mean you have to help with everything.

And her daughter invested in the factory to boost the economy and help fellow villagers get wealthy, not because she has too much money and nowhere to spend it, like some kind of Santa Claus.
