"What you’re saying makes sense, Mom. Your daughter has learned her lesson."
Kang Li nodded with a smile, showing she agreed with what Cai Xiufen said.
"By the way, what did Chunmei come looking for you about?" Cai Xiufen suddenly changed the topic, and before Kang Li could answer, she went on, "Don’t tell me she’s like your Aunt Cui, wanting to use your connections to get into the factory and work there?"
"That’s more or less what she meant, but I didn’t agree right away. After all, the factory has a certain hiring process. If I set a precedent here, it’s hard to guarantee that the managers in the factory won’t copy it later.
Besides, nothing works without rules. As long as Chunmei can meet the hiring requirements, I won’t have to say a word and she’ll be able to get into the factory and work just fine."
After listening to Kang Li, Cai Xiufen nodded. "That’s how it should be. Otherwise, if you open this door today, when the factory recruits later, there definitely won’t be any shortage of people from our family coming to us."
Who doesn’t have a few difficult relatives?
Even if you don’t among the close ones, what about the distant ones?
So her daughter was right: nothing works without rules, and some openings just can’t be made.
"Don’t worry, Mom. After the factory is built, we’ll announce the relevant regulations, like factory rules, and also reward-and-penalty systems and so on. With these constraints, even if someone comes to our house wanting to go through the back door, it’ll just be a waste of their time."
Kang Li’s expression was calm, and Cai Xiufen felt reassured by her words.
It’s right for relatives to help each other when something comes up, but that doesn’t mean you have to help with every single thing.
And her daughter is putting up the money to start the factory in order to boost the local economy and help the villagers get rich together, not because she’s got so much money she doesn’t know where to spend it and wants to play the generous fool.
"As long as you’ve got it clear in your heart." Cai Xiufen said, then paused and asked, "You’re really leaving early in the morning?"
"Yeah."
Kang Li nodded.
"Then I’ll go pack up." Saying that, Cai Xiufen was about to head back to her room, but just as she lifted her leg, something suddenly occurred to her and she asked Kang Li, "Chunmei didn’t ask about Chunxia?"
"She did." Kang Li said, "But I didn’t say anything."
Hearing that, Cai Xiufen was momentarily stunned, then said, "It’s fine if you didn’t. Chunxia isn’t a three-year-old child. Back when she showed up in North City, she herself never thought of contacting the family.
