Yu Simei sighed and guessed: "Maybe before you promised Li Muxiao, his sister had already set off in advance, and now that the family has arrived, do you want to meet her?"

Niu Xiaoqiang looked at his watch first, and then nodded: "It's only early ten o'clock, and there is still some time, you can talk back to the guard room and ask them to bring people over." ”

Yu Simei agreed, picked up the walkie-talkie, and conveyed Niu Xiaoqiang's meaning to the guard room.

In less than three minutes, there was a knock on the office door: "Secretary Niu, someone has brought it over." ”

Yu Simei opened the door without waiting for Niu Xiaoqiang to speak, and invited Li Muxiao's sister in.

At the first glance of this woman, Niu Xiaoqiang showed a look of surprise. The woman in front of her had messy hair like a chicken nest, her clothes were in tatters, patches in many places, her hands and face were covered with chilblains, and she entered the office with her head down and did not dare to speak, looking like she was waiting for her fate to pronounce her sentence.

Niu Xiaoqiang was stunned for a moment before smiling: "You are Li Muxiao's sister Li Fuyu, right? Please sit down, Sister Yu, please pour Miss Li a cup of tea, and give her some food by the way." ”

Yu Simei glanced at Niu Xiaoqiang with a puzzled expression, and said in her heart: How do you know that this woman has not eaten?

While thinking so, Yu Simei poured tea according to Niu Xiaoqiang's instructions, and handed her biscuits to Li Fuyu.

Li Fuyu didn't say a word after entering the house, and he didn't pick up the steaming tea and scallion oil biscuits after seeing them, just stared at the tea and biscuits blankly.

Yu Simei and Niu Xiaoqiang didn't speak, because they found that Li Fuyu's eyes were slightly red, and he looked very sad.

After a while, Niu Xiaoqiang spoke: "Miss Li, you fill your stomach first, and then we will talk when you are full of food and drink." ”

Li Fuyu nodded slightly, dripping tears while eating biscuits and drinking tea. She was visibly hungry, ate and drank very quickly, and swept away the tea and biscuits without much effort.

Yu Simei looked at her gobbling up, seemed to be quite touched, couldn't help but have red eyes, and asked with concern, "Miss Li, do you want to eat something more?"

Niu Xiaoqiang knew why Yu Simei was so touched, because she had experienced such a thing before. When she ran away from her uncle's house, Yu Simei suffered a lot, and she was no different from a beggar at the worst time. Li Fuyu's appearance reminded her of those things in the past, and she was touched.

Li Fuyu shook his head a little embarrassed, wiped his mouth clean with his dirty sleeves, and then spoke: "Thank you, no need, I'm not so hungry anymore." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang roughly guessed Li Fuyu's experience in the past few days, and he couldn't help asking, "Miss Li, did you come all the way from your hometown to Aoshan alone?"

Li Fuyu nodded: "En." ”

Yu Simei was surprised: "If I'm not mistaken, Li Muxiao is from Linxing, right? It seems that there are hundreds of kilometers from your house to Aoshan, how did you get here such a long way?"

"I took a villager's tractor to the city, and then sneaked on a cargo ship bound for Qingjiang in the city, and after following the boat to Qingjiang, I inquired all the way and walked from Qingjiang to Aoshan. ”

Qingjiang is a little far away from Aoshan, due to the twists and turns of the road, it takes at least three days to walk, now it is just spring, the weather is very cold, Yu Simei heard this and subconsciously asked: "Such a cold day, how did you spend the night?"

Li Fuyu whispered: "At night, I will drill the straw pile, warm myself in the straw pile, and wait until dawn to hurry." ”

Yu Simei glanced at Niu Xiaoqiang, and her eyes showed pity.

Niu Xiaoqiang knew what Yu Simei meant, she wanted to arrange a job for Li Fuyu as soon as possible, otherwise Li Fuyu would be equivalent to running for nothing, and even survival would be a problem in the future.

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly: "Miss Li, does your family know about your visit to Aoshan?"

Li Fuyu whispered: "My mother doesn't know, my brother knows, it was he who encouraged me to come to Aoshan, he said that if I continue to stay in my hometown, I can only live a hard life in this life, if I want to change the status quo, I have to fight." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang sighed and said with a smile: "Just yesterday, your brother personally found me and begged me to arrange a job for you, so I notified the doorman in advance and asked them to pay attention to your physical characteristics, otherwise even if you find the Asian Machinery Factory, the doorman will not let you in, it seems that you have a good relationship with your brother." ”

Li Fuyu snorted: "I grew up with him since I was a child, and he took good care of me and treated me very well. ”

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't want to inquire about other people's housework, in fact, he had already guessed that Li Fuyu must have been bullied by Li Muxiao's mother often, and asking too much would only increase his sadness.

He got back to the point: "Miss Li, do you have any specialties, or what kind of work do you like to do?"

Li Fuyu knew that this was an excellent opportunity to change her fate, and she didn't want to miss it, so she mustered up the courage and said: "I know some mechanical design knowledge, as long as it is not too difficult mechanical equipment, I can design it." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang knew that her father used to be the chief engineer specializing in aircraft design, and it is estimated that Li Fuyu, like Li Muxiao, learned all the knowledge from her father.

Niu Xiaoqiang has always attached great importance to talents, and Li Fuyu is so pitiful, he naturally will not deliberately embarrass him.

After thinking about it for a while, Niu Xiaoqiang took out a pen and paper and handed it over: "In order to better arrange work for you, so that you can give full play to the knowledge you have mastered, I want to make a simple assessment of you, you now draw the most advanced mechanical drawings you know, you don't need to be so detailed, just draw a simple figure." ”

Li Fuyu nodded, took the pen and paper with his hand covered with frostbite, and drew it very seriously.

Taking advantage of her drawing, Yu Simei walked out. When Li Fu's drawing was finished, Yu Simei just returned. She had an extra set of clothes in her hand, as well as a bottle of ointment to treat chilblains.

Niu Xiaoqiang picked up the drawings and watched them, Yu Simei took the opportunity to hand the clothes and ointment to Li Fuyu, and whispered: "You go and change the clothes with me, and by the way, freshen up and apply the chilblain medicine." ”

Li Fuyu's personality is a bit similar to Yu Simei, and she is very shy. She shook her head embarrassedly: "I ...... I don't have the money to pay you......"

Yu Simei slowed down and said: "I gave you this set of clothes, I don't need you to give money, and the ointment doesn't cost money either." ”

Li Fuyu nodded with emotion, and her eyes were red: "Thank you, sister, since my father passed away, no one has been so good to me......"
