Chapter 33: CH 33

Chapter 33 - I can definitely do it! I'm a man! (3)

Su Dazhi felt a bit guilty. Based on what Sis was saying, he wasn't a real man. He did the easiest work…

Since Su Yu had already communicated with Director Xu and it was only a temporary position, Director Xu spoke with the loading and unloading team to let Su Xiaozhi try out.

Seeing Su Xiaozhi's tall figure and Su Yu's petite figure, Director Xu told Su Xiaozhi while leading him to work, "It's been hard on your sister. She won't even rest even after falling ill. I gave her time off, but she wouldn't take it."

Su Xiaozhi felt bad. Sis was working so hard to earn money for him.

After arriving at the loading dock and explaining the situation to the loading and unloading team's manager, Director Xu encouraged Su Xiaozhi, "Work hard, learn from your sister."

"I'll definitely work hard. Don't worry, Director!" Su Xiaozhi's expression was full of self-confidence.

Over in the production department, Su Yu had also started working. Director Xu was quite caring and had assigned her to organize the cotton threads. Although this job was troublesome, she could sit down, and it wasn't as tiring as spinning and weaving.

The people doing this easy work were either old-timers of the factory, or they had connections to the higher-ups in the factory.

Su Yu had just come here, but she quickly integrated into the group.

Midway through her shift, she paid Yan Xiaofang a visit to borrow books. Borrowing books was just a secondary goal. The most important thing was to let the comrades in the trade union know that she was always working to improve herself and keeping herself fresh in their minds.

"Isn't there an evening school in the province? I want to go there to learn something. Comrade Chairman said that one must keep improving. I don't have enough knowledge now. There's a limit to how much cloth I can spin with my hands. I want to learn more skills and serve the people well."

Yan Xiaofang quickly said, "I have some books at home. I'll bring it over when I go back."

She checked that there was no one else around and whispered to Su Yu, "It's good for you to learn more. If the office recruits people, it'll definitely be easier for you to pass as an internal candidate."

Su Yu looked pleasantly surprised. "Really? The comrades in the office all do important things! There's so few of you, and you have to take care of so many other comrades. That requires ability."

"Really! I'm sure you can pass!" Yan Xiaofang encouraged her.

Yan Xiaofang was a young woman whose life had been going smoothly since childhood, including getting an easy job after graduation. It was inevitable that she would sympathize and have a sense of responsibility for Su Yu, a person who kept a positive outlook and was trying to improve herself despite her rough life experience and a hard life.

Su Yu gratefully held Yan Xiaofang's hand. "Officer Yan, I'm so thankful. You're a ray of light in my life, showing me the way forward. It's all thanks to your guidance that I have so many new ideas. I'll definitely work hard. I won't let you down!"

A surge of satisfaction welled up in Yan Xiaofang. So wonderful, she had helped someone by relying on her own abilities.

At noon, Su Yu brought the books with her when she went to look for Su Xiaozhi to go home.

Right after reaching the loading dock, she saw how messy he was, and her face twitched. He had been pretty clean when they left home. How did he get so messy in one morning?

"Sis." Su Xiaozhi saw Su Yu coming. His eyes reddened. So hard, this was so incredibly hard.

Su Yu looked back at him with distress in her eyes. There was no use in calling out "Sis". This was the path he chose. Even if he cried, he still had to continue down this path.
