Lin Shuyue applied for the job in the morning and started working in the afternoon.
The intellectual beauty who took her into the office when she dress up yesterday was also the person who took her to the dormitory today. According to her own introduction, her surname was Tian and her full name was Tian Li.
"This is your dormitory." Tian Li took Lin Shuyue to a small dormitory at the corner of the first floor of the dormitory building, next to the staircase. Next to the staircase was an iron fence that had been pushed aside.
There is only one staircase in the entire dormitory building.
"I have a few words to tell you when you work here. Watch less, talk less and do more. Take care of things that are your responsibility and ignore things that are not your responsibility. We will pay you your salary on time every month. If you do things that you shouldn't do or take care of things that you shouldn't be in charge of, your salary will be deducted."
Lin Shuyue nodded repeatedly and said in the local dialect: "I know, I know, I don't care about anything and I won't say anything. I have 80-year-old parents-in-law to support, two sons who are about to get married, and my husband is paralyzed at home. Boss, please don't deduct my salary."
Tian Li ignored Lin Shuyue's pleas for mercy. After she put down her things, she took her to the cafeteria and said, "Your team leader works in the cafeteria. His name is Mei Daliang. You can just call him Team Leader Mei from now on. He will be in charge of your work from now on. You should do whatever he tells you to do."
Mei Daliang is in his early forties, bald, with a beer belly and everything else. Unfortunately, he is short, no more than 1.6 meters tall. When he walks, his belly and butt are big, and he walks with his feet turned outward, so he sways unsteadily, just like a duck.
Tian Li didn't smile: "Director Mei, I sent someone to you. Her family is short of money, so she will go to work this afternoon. It's up to you how to arrange the work. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Ms. Tian, take care." Manager Mei bent his waist slightly as he spoke.
After Tian Li walked away with her high heels clacking on her heels, he turned his head and said, "She's just a mistress, but she still acts like a wife every day. How shameless."
After saying that, he looked at the rustic middle-aged woman in front of him and said, "Today's sanitation is not done yet, go and clean the floor of the teaching building."
This was exactly what Lin Shuyue wanted, so under Mei Daliang's instructions, she picked up a bottle of water with a little detergent in it and started mopping the floor from the teaching building.
The school is not dirty and it is easy to clean. Basically, the floor will be clean after just mopping it.
After mopping the floor, Lin Shuyue used a rag to wipe the windowsills and other places where dust easily accumulates, then returned to the cafeteria's workshop carrying a bucket and mop.
After Lin Shuyue left, the two instructors checked all the places where Lin Shuyue had worked, and after making sure that there were no high-tech things, they returned to Xiao Changxin's office.
"Principal, I checked and there is nothing unusual."
Xiao Changxin nodded when he heard that. He thought of the silent and introverted rural woman who couldn't speak Mandarin and couldn't even write her own name during the interview that morning. He put down the newspaper in his hand and said, "Okay, stop watching her. I don't think she can do anything. You should keep an eye on those students, especially the rebel who just came the day before yesterday. You must keep an eye on him."
"The school is on the rise, and nothing can go wrong."
"I understand, Principal."
Xiao Changxin waved to the instructor, and the instructor retreated very obediently.
Lin Shuyue was not idle after cleaning. Before she even finished washing the mop, Mei Daliang came to call her: "Go clean the cafeteria first. The students will be coming to eat soon."
The cafeteria of the Internet Addiction School is neither big nor small, with more than 20 tables with stools arranged in three rows, all in Klein blue.
The floor was cement. Mei Daliang pointed to the mop made of rags in the corner and said to Lin Shuyue, "That mop is specially used to clean the kitchen. Mop the floor first."
During the interview in the morning, Xiao Changxin told her to talk less and do more, and Tian Li gave her some instructions again in the afternoon.
Lin Shuyue was afraid of exposing herself by talking too much, so this request was just what she wanted. She went to the kitchen silently with the broom to dip it in water.
This behavior of hers successfully gave her the impression of being efficient and taciturn in front of Mei Daliang.
Mei Daliang's position in the school was not high. He said he was the director of the logistics department, but that was just a title. He was in charge of the cafeteria, but in essence he was still a cook who cooked for the students.
After leaving the cafeteria, he had to report to Tian Li even if he wanted to get an extra pen.
The soldiers under his command were just odd jobs doing all kinds of work in the school.
However, this kind of odd jobs requires a lot of work and the wages are low, and wages are always deducted, so many people don't want to do it after working for ten days or half a month.
If this school wasn't opened by his cousin, Mei Daliang himself wouldn't want to work here.
So immoral!
But what can he do? His salary is high. He can make 1100 yuan a month just by cooking and frying. After working here for a year, he can build a big house at home by March next year. His son can marry a new wife in two years, and the conditions of the bride he finds will be much better.
So he just keep his mouth shut up since that the only thing he can do.
Mei Daliang opened the iron door next to the cafeteria and entered the kitchen, and Lin Shuyue followed him in.
The kitchen was not big, less than 20 square meters. There was an electric rice cooker against the wall, and two large pots next to the rice cooker. In the middle was an operating table, on which were cut two or three pots of radish, potatoes and cabbage, and there were two kinds of radish. Lin Shuyue took a look and was confused.
As a foodie, Lin Shuyue really couldn't imagine how these four dishes could be combined together.
At this time, Mei Daliang had already started cooking.
He poured a spoonful of oil into the big pot, lubricated the pot, then scooped out another half spoonful of oil, poured the two kinds of radishes into the pot, stirred them a few times, sprinkled a handful of salt, and put a large basin of water on it.
In another pot, he fried the potatoes in a similar way, but he added the cabbage after adding water.
Two pots of food were cooking in the pots. Mei Daliang was already sweating profusely. He walked to the electric fan to blow the air, wiped the sweat off his face with a towel, and said to Lin Shuyue who was washing the mop without any courtesy: "The new guy, wait a minute, I will teach you how to serve meals to the students. From now on, you will be responsible for this matter."
Lin Shuyue nodded and put the mop aside.
Mei Daliang rolled his eyes and ignored her. He always looked down on such odd jobs. When he was mostly done cooling in the fan and the food in the pot was cooked, he put the two pots of food into a large basin.
He then directed Lin Shuyue to bring two large pots of food to the window, and then asked her to bring the rice as well, before he slowly walked over.
This dish of fried carrots and white radish was the first time that Lin Shuyue had seen. It looked so dull and unappetizing that even a dog would shake its head at the sight.
Lin Shuyue had eaten the dish of cabbage stewed with potatoes in her previous life. She had a roommate who was from the north and she cooked this dish for them. To be honest, after adding pork and enough seasoning, the taste of this dish was quite good. Lin Shuyue felt that Mei Daliang's stewed cabbage with potatoes was really an insult to this dish.
While no one was in the cafeteria yet, Mei Daliang talked to Lin Shuyue about getting food.
"In our school, each student is required to have half a spoonful of rice and half a spoonful of vegetables. You are not allowed to give more than that. The instructors will be watching you. If you give too much, expect your salary to be deducted."
The spoon that Mei Daliang held was not small, but half a spoonful of rice weighed less than one or two ounces, not to mention the vegetables. The dishes were originally soupy, so half a spoonful was all soup. How much vegetable could there be?
The students in this school are all teenagers who are still growing up. What can this little bit of food mean? It's not enough to fill them up.
Just keeping them alive with a breath of air.
Lin Shuyue was filled with anger, but she looked submissive and didn't dare to refute at all: "It's just such a small amount of food, the child won't be full."
Apparently, many workers had asked this question before. Mei Daliang said, "They are all a bunch of rebels. They are prone to causing trouble when they are full. It is better not to be full."
As soon as he finished speaking, the bell for the end of afternoon get out of class rang, and ten minutes later, someone came to the cafeteria.
Instructors in camouflage uniforms stood in various corners of the cafeteria, each holding a two-finger-wide ruler in their hands.
The students lined up consciously with stainless steel rice bowls in their hands.
During the entire process, there was no other sound except the sound of footsteps and the sounds of Lin Shuyue, and Mei Daliang preparing meals.
The atmosphere was so depressing that Lin Shuyue felt uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart.
The students came forward one by one. Half a spoonful of rice, half a spoonful of fried carrots and white radish, and another half a spoonful of stewed cabbage and potatoes, this was the lunch for these students.
There was no oil or meat, just soup.
While getting lunch, Lin Shuyue had already observed these students. None of them were fat, and none of them had rosy complexions. They all had sallow complexions and were thin.
Many of the students were injured.
Ah Hao was at the end of the line. His non-mainstream hair had been cut and was uneven on his head.
Lin Shuyue had just reached out to scoop up the cooked rice when she was stopped by Mei Daliang. He shook the spoon and only let her serve half of the rice. The same went for the two dishes, which were already small in portion.
Ah Hao looked up at him, then lowered his eyes and said nothing.
After the students had finished their meals, Lin Shuyue asked Mei Daliang why he treated them differently. The work for lunch was done, and Mei Daliang planned to go out to the foot massage parlor to have some fun in the afternoon. He was in a good mood. He held a toothpick that he had put in his mouth at some point, and squinted at Lin Shuyue, saying, "Did you see the blue bracelet on his hand?"
Lin Shuyue nodded. She had noticed this detail a long time ago. Among the more than 80 students, only Ah Hao wore this blue bracelet.
"Students like this are troublemakers in school and should be punished. Just give them half of the meal. If you give more, you will be scolded."
Lin Shuyue looked towards Ah Hao. Ah Hao had already eaten up the pitiful amount of food. Under the instructor's watchful eyes, he went to the bathroom outside to wash the dishes.
Lin Shuyue maintained her persona, twisted her fingers, and thanked Mei Daliang with trepidation: "I understand, thank you team leader."
Mei Daliang was very touched by Lin Shuyue's thanks: "Okay, tidy up the furniture and wash it, and clean the kitchen. I have something to go out for."
Mei Daliang did not eat the food he cooked. Like the rest of the faculty and staff, he ate food ordered from outside by Xiao Changxin.
Lin Shuyue was not so lucky. She ate food with an inexplicable fishy smell, and it was already dark when she cleaned up the kitchen.
The inner courtyard was empty, and there was no one on the huge playground. The staff dormitory on the second floor of the office building was brightly lit.
Except for the "painting room" and "infirmary" on the second floor, the rest of the teaching building was pitch dark.
The light in the dormitory building was yellow, very dark and dim. Lin Shuyue estimated that the wattage was at most 30 watts.
Lin Shuyue returned to the dormitory, turned on the lights, and went upstairs to check the students' dormitories according to Tian Li's instructions.
The second floor is the girls' dormitory, and the third floor is the boys' dormitory.
It was not yet bedtime, and the students were afraid to sit on their beds and mess up the sheets and get punished by the instructors, so they didn't say much, but just stood against the wall with dull eyes.
They have none of the youthfulness of teenage boys or girls.
Lin Shuyue looked uncomfortable, and during the inspection, she adjusted the position of the miniature secret camera she had bought and installed it in the dormitory.
She has limited props, one each in the boys' and girls' dormitories.
After doing all this, she came down from upstairs. Four instructors came upstairs at this time. Lin Shuyue greeted them and stepped aside to let them leave.
When they passed each other, Lin Shuyue saw that each of them was holding a white medicine bottle in their hands.
The medicine bottle was so big that they couldn't hold it in one hand.
Lin Shuyue's eyebrows twitched.
