Chapter 479： Bullying

Chapter 479 Bullying

Bai Jinbei pushed out the bamboo basket sent by Sun, "Brother and sister, this is not the case."

“I’m not saying that I don’t need your Bai Tushun to do the work. In fact, there is no shortage of manpower in the workshop right now. We have to wait until the next time we recruit workers before we can talk about going to the workshop to do the work.”

“But if we recruit workers next time, we will select the best from all those who applied. It doesn’t mean that whoever queues up first will get the position.”

There is some truth in what he said, but when Mrs. Sun heard it, she felt that Bai Jinbei was trying to shirk the situation and simply didn't want to use her Bai Tushun.

“Brother Jin Bei, this matter...”

"Brothers and sisters, there is indeed no shortage of people to work before the new year. You can wait until after the new year. When the workshop starts to work here after the new year, I will tell everyone. Then please pay attention to your family and come back to sign up then."

Bai Jinbei said, "It's done. I have to go to the workshop quickly now, so I won't talk to my siblings."

Mrs. Sun didn't let go when she saw Bai Jinbei here, knowing that it would be useless to talk more, so she had no choice but to carry a bamboo basket full of eggs and return home angrily.

After arriving home, Bai Tushun was cleaning up the bench at home.

The bench has been in use for a long time and a leg is missing. It is necessary to find a suitable wooden stick to tie it to.

"I saw you leaving the house so early in the morning. Where have you been?" Bai Tushun raised his head, "You don't look good at all. What's wrong?"

Mrs. Sun put the bamboo basket aside and sat on the futon made of stick leaves, with a look of boredom on her face, "I just went to Baijin Beijia's house."

"Go and ask about the work in the workshop?" Bai Tushun stopped what he was doing.

"Yeah." Mrs. Sun was a little depressed, her eye circles were red, and she sniffed, "I originally wanted to see if there was any work to do, but people said that there will be no shortage before the year, so we have to wait until after the new year." When I spoke, they ignored me and just said that they had something to do. I don’t think there is a shortage of people in the workshop, but they just don’t want people from my family to work in the workshop..."

“Even Bai Erniu has work to do in the workshop, but he won’t let you go. Isn’t this bullying our family?”

“Just because I picked up wheat ears from other people’s fields, are you going to beat them to death with sticks? We’ve already given the wheat to other people. Isn’t that enough? What do you want to do to our family...”

Mrs. Sun started to cry as she spoke.

Bai Tushun hurriedly put down what he was doing and went to coax Ms. Sun, "Okay, okay, don't cry. What should I do? It's just because of this, it's not worth it."

"Why isn't it worth it?" Ms. Sun curled her lips, "You can make a lot of money by working in a workshop. It's more than working outside. You can also protect your home and the land. It's great, but people are born with bad luck. You don’t want to let our family go, why don’t you get angry?”

"Okay, okay, this workshop is run by someone else. Who they want to use and who they don't use is their decision. If they are willing to use us, we can make a good living. If they don't want to use us, we can't." You owe it to us, so don’t get too involved in this matter.”

Bai Tu said along the way, "Our family has had a bit of a hard time this year, but it's okay. I'll go to the county town after the new year to see if I can find a long-term job, and the wages will be good."

It means that I will be far away from home and cannot come back often.

Seeing Bai Tushun say this, Mrs. Sun wiped her tears and nodded with sobs, "I understand."

“If you know it, go and wash your face quickly. It’s cold and tears on your face will cause frostbite.”
