After Hong Xiumei applied for the job, Lin Mai interviewed more than a dozen disabled people who could walk in on their own, and it was the turn of a disabled person who could not walk on his own.
This disabled person is also a girl, her name is Yao Yan, she looks about sixteen or seventeen years old.
Due to being unable to move for a long time, both legs have shrunk like the legs of a seven or eight-year-old child, which makes people feel distressed just looking at them.
Although both mother and daughter were covered in patches, they were all neatly groomed.
Yao Yan was carried into the office by her mother to apply for the job.
Lin Mai asked gently: "Can't you walk by yourself with the help of crutches?"
Yao Yan lowered her head in embarrassment.
Yao's mother smiled bitterly and shook her head: "She has no feeling in her lower limbs and can't walk."
Lin Mai asked: "If I can't walk alone with the help of crutches, what should I do if I go to the toilet?"
Yao Yan's eyes were firm and she said softly: "I can avoid going to the toilet during working hours. I will wait until my mother picks me up from get off work before going to the toilet.
I promise it won’t affect my work or cause any trouble to anyone.”
Lin Mai smiled kindly: "Not drinking water at the end of the day is bad for your health. That's one thing.
On the other hand, people always have stomach upsets.
If you have a stomachache during work hours and your mother is not around, who will wait for you to go to the toilet?
The disabled people who come to work here must be able to take care of themselves."
She shook her head cruelly: "I can't hire you in your situation."
When Yao Yan heard this, she was so sad that she almost shed tears.
Yao's mother was also very sad, but she could only accept the reality.
With red eyes, he lowered his head and said to his daughter: "Let's go back." After that, he wanted to carry Yao Yan on his back.
Yao Yan grabbed the corner of Lin Mai's desk and said, "Didn't your recruitment notice say that you want disabled people with dexterity?
I am very clever and can use paper to make many flowers."
Lin Mai thought, if she could really make many flowers with paper, she might be able to make flowers with cloth.
If that's the case, consider admitting her as an exception.
Lin Mai smiled and asked, "Can you use cloth to make flowers?"
In this era, most families are still very poor, not to mention families with disabled people like Yao Yan, who are even poorer.
I don't want to throw away even a piece of cloth the size of a baby's hand at home.
Piece them together and sew a small school bag or a bib for eating for your child. Anyway, nothing will be wasted.
So Yao Yan has never used cloth to make flowers.
She hesitated: "I'm not sure, but I want to try."
Linmai's bag contains a lot of cloth tips, which are prepared for applicants who want to show off their skills.
She took out some pieces of cloth and gave them to Yao Yan.
Yao Yan picked up a piece of cloth and twisted it out into a blooming rose. Her craftsmanship was no worse than Lin Mai's.
She borrowed scissors, needle and thread from Lin Mai and made several styles of six-petal flowers.
After finishing, she looked at Lin Mai expectantly.
Lin Mai took the hair flowers she made and nodded with satisfaction: "Well done, but I still can't hire you to work in the factory."
Yao Yan cried when she heard this: "Is it because I can't take care of myself?"
Lin Mai nodded.
Yao Yan looked lonely and desperate.
"Although I can't hire you to work in the factory, you can take the job and do it at home.
In this way, you can not only make money, but also make it easier for your mother to take care of you."
The mother and daughter were extremely excited when they heard this.
Yao Yan's eyes were bright: "I will definitely do it well!"
Lin Mai smiled and said: "If you don't work hard and the quality of the flower head you make is not up to standard, I will not accept it, and I will terminate the cooperative relationship."
Although she really wants to give some help to people with disabilities, at work, she will not have no requirements for them just because they are disabled.
On the contrary, they will be treated as normal people.
While Lin Mai was recruiting, Fang Weiguo was sitting in the office with a livid face calling Fang Zhuoran.
Just now, when he came to work, Su's father called.
On the phone, Su's father ignored his image and roared to tell him that Fang Zhuoran came to warn his father and daughter.
He roared on the phone: "Zhuoran has someone he likes, but you still introduce him to Yingying. What are you worried about?"
Fang Weiguo was scolded so badly by him that he didn't dare to defend himself.
How can he defend himself?
This was indeed something he and his wife did improperly.
Because he was dissatisfied with Lin Mai and Fang Zhuoran being together, he wanted to use Su Yuying to destroy their relationship. This in itself was using Su Yuying as a gunman.
Although Fang Weiguo apologized to Su's father on the phone, the other party did not forgive him.
Fang Weiguo was so angry that he had to vent his anger to Fang Zhuoran.
This treacherous son made a good promise and went to apologize to Su Yuying, but he went to threaten and intimidate her!
I called several times and was always answered by Fang Zhuoran’s colleagues.
When the call was made for the seventh time, it was finally Fang Zhuoran who answered the phone.
As soon as Fang Weiguo heard Fang Zhuoran's voice, he said angrily: "It's true that those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to red are red!
You used to be such a decent person, but since you got together with that divorced woman named Maizi, you have become so sinister!
He actually went against his will and promised to admit his mistake to Yingying, but then went to cause trouble.
Do you insist that our Fang family and Su family become enemies and you will be happy?"
Fang Zhuoran asked coldly: "When did I promise you to apologize to Su Yuying?
What I said at the time was: I will go find them right away.
Why did it sound like I was going to apologize to Su Yuying in your ears?
If you want to curry favor with the Su family, that's your business.
I don’t have to curry favor with the Su family, so why should I have to apologize to Su Yuying?”
Fang Weiguo carefully recalled the scene at that time, and it seemed that Nizi never said he wanted to apologize to Su Yuying.
On the phone, Fang Zhuoran continued: "It's obviously you and Wang Wenfang who are extremely sinister.
In order to climb up the ladder, you and your wife worked together and forcibly tied me and Su Yuying together, trading my life for your career.
You still have the nerve to call me insidious, but you are calling me a slap in the face!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone neatly.
Fang Weiguo was so angry on the other end of the phone.
Unable to deal with the traitor, Fang Weiguo had no choice but to ask Grandpa Fang for help.
Grandpa Fang's house didn't have a phone, so Fang Weiguo called the mayor of Simei Town.
On the pretext that he had something urgent to call Mr. Fang, he asked the mayor to send someone to ask his father to answer the call.
Grandpa Fang was a high-ranking official who had retired from the capital. How could a small town mayor dare to neglect him? He immediately sent someone to invite Grandpa Fang.
Grandpa Fang thought something big had happened and ran over panting.
When he heard Fang Weiguo complain on the phone that Fang Zhuoran didn't want to introduce Grandpa Su's granddaughter to him and insisted on choosing the divorced Lin Mai, Grandpa Fang almost burst into tears.
He roared on the phone: "Zhuoran and Maizi really love each other, why do you want to break them up? Do you want to use Zhuoran as a ladder to climb up?"
Fang Weiguo was stunned on the other end of the phone.
He didn't expect that his own father would react like this.
He asked in confusion: "Dad and Uncle Su have a good relationship. Don't you want the two families to become friends of Qin and Jin?"
Grandpa Fang said coldly: "Although I hope that the two families will form a good relationship between Qin and Jin, I have a requirement, that is, no interests will be involved. Zhuoran and Yingying truly love each other.
Do they really love each other? Is there no interest involved in this marriage?
Boss, let me tell you, if you dare to use Zhuoran as a stepping stone for you to climb up, see how I deal with you!"
Fang Weiguo was silent for a moment, then settled for the next best thing: "Zhuoran ran to the door to warn and threaten Yingying. Please advise him to admit his mistake, otherwise I'm afraid that the relationship between the Fang family and the Su family will become tense."
Grandpa Fang said nonchalantly: "When there's a quarrel, it's a quarrel.
It was the granddaughter of that old guy named Su who came to trouble Maizi.
As Maizi's boyfriend, shouldn't Zhuo Ran stand up for her?
If Maizi is bullied and Zhuoran stands idly by, I will beat him to death!"
Fang Weiguo was so angry with his own father that he had no choice but to hang up the phone.
He thought this was the end of the matter.
Unexpectedly, Grandpa Fang went back and told Grandma Fang the purpose of Fang Weiguo's call.
Grandma Fang was furious when she heard this. She ran to the town government, borrowed the doorman's phone and scolded Fang Weiguo:
"Are you still a human being? Didn't it just offend the Su family and affect your climb up?
Just call and tell your dad that there is something urgent.
Your father is over seventy years old, and he almost died when he ran away, do you know that?"
Fang Weiguo said aggrievedly: "It's not that the boss didn't install the phone for dad, it was dad who didn't want it."
He couldn't stand his parents very much, and they didn't want any treatment given to them by their superiors.
Some retired officials are afraid that the treatment given to them by their superiors is not enough, and they will still have trouble with their superiors.
His parents are the most honorable!
Grandma Fang said angrily: "Why do your dad and I need a phone?
How about your brothers and sisters taking turns calling us and asking us to help you climb up?
Your dad and I want to live a few more years and don’t want to be disturbed to death by you!"
After scolding her eldest son, Grandma Fang was worried about Lin Mai.
He called Fang Zhuoran again and asked him to comfort Lin Mai and not let her be wronged. Then he returned home still angry.
