All day long, Zhao Meimei muddled through, her eyes on the teacher, but her mind kept replaying the scene she overheard in the bathroom with Wang Jiayue, like a little movie.
At dinner, Zhao Meimei was a bit absent-minded, but her parents didn't notice.
Liu Dazhuang was recently troubled by the factory's buyout issues, sighing all day long.
Liu Xiue picked some food for Zhao Dazhuang: "Don't think about it, hasn't the matter not been decided yet?"
Zhao Dazhuang took a bite of food and mumbled a response: "It's already settled, just hasn't been officially announced yet."
Liu Xiue paused in her action of picking food: "Then what are we waiting for?"
Zhao Dazhuang sighed: "Waiting for money! They want the buyout, won't they have to pay? The benefits we were owed for a year and a half have dragged from the beginning of the year to the end, and now it's the New Year, if they don't pay up, how can people work!"
