Chapter 571 Ticket Purchase Controversy
"Oh, nothing, I'm just looking around!"
"Mom, Auntie, are you guys tired of queuing? Why don't you let me queue up instead?"
When Jiang Duoduo saw Chen Shuyue calling her, she hurried to the queue. Seeing that her mother and aunt each had a bag in their hands and looked very tired, she wanted to queue up herself.
"No, no, there aren't many people ahead of us. We'll be there soon."
Chen Shuyue quickly waved to Jiang Duoduo, indicating that she would be able to buy the ticket soon.
"Duoduo, since you're here, please help Auntie calculate how many tickets we need to buy in total?"
Chen Shufang, who was standing in front of Chen Shuyue, walked forward a few steps with her teammates. When they were about to reach them, she asked Jiang Duoduo to count the number of people.
There were so many people in their group, many adults and many children. Chen Shufang counted on her fingers for a long time and found that she was getting more and more dizzy.
"Okay, Auntie! Let me do the math. There are only you and Susu in your family, so there are two adults. There are no children."
"But my family has more! There are five of us sisters, plus my mom and my eldest brother-in-law, so there are seven adults in total. As for the children, my eldest sister brought Dongdong and Lele, my second and third sisters also have two children each, and my fourth sister's Hubao is less than two years old and doesn't need a ticket. That means there are six children who need to buy tickets, and nine adults in total from both families."
As soon as Jiang Duoduo finished speaking, it was Chen Shufang's turn to queue up to buy tickets.
Chen Shufang quickly stepped forward and felt excited when she saw that the person selling the ticket was someone she knew.
"Sister Ma, you're selling tickets here today! There are nine adults and six children. Can you calculate how much it will cost in total?"
Chen Shufang knew that Ma Hongjuan was the wife of Zhang Shuisheng, the orchard manager, who was five years older than her.
She was one year older than me and lived at the east end of the village, so I smiled and called her Sister Ma.
Although the two were not very familiar with each other, they lived in the same village and knew each other.
"Where are the six children? Are they over 1.2 meters tall?"
Ma Hongjuan, who was sitting behind the big table, glanced at Chen Shufang and knew that she lived nearby. However, the husband in Chen Shufang's family did not earn money and the son had no job, so the villagers generally looked down on their family.
Ma Hongjuan thought that her husband could earn 8,000 yuan a month and was one of the high-earning people in Niujia Village, so she looked down on Chen Shufang from the bottom of her heart.
She simply ignored Chen Shufang's polite words and started by asking in a formal manner where the child was.
"The children are all playing over there by the billboard! Look, among the six children, only one is over 1.2 meters tall; the others are still very young."
After Chen Shuyue married into Daxi Village, she would only go back to her sister's home in Niujia Village during the Chinese New Year and other holidays. She really had no impression of Ma Hongjuan.
Seeing that the man spoke in a tough tone, she felt that he was not easy to get along with, so she stepped forward and quickly explained the height of the children.
Among the grandchildren, excluding Hu Bao, only Dong Dong is a little older, and the others are only 4 to 7 years old.
"How can I see from such a distance? You have to bring the children here so I can see them in person. Otherwise, how will I know if you lied about your height?"
"Just yesterday, a child grew up to be 1.6 meters tall, but his parents told me he was no taller than 1.2 meters. Some people really don't care about their children's life or death just to save that half of the money!"
Ma Hongjuan raised her hand and asked Chen Shuyue to bring the children over quickly, otherwise she would not buy them tickets.
"No... Sister Ma, we live in the same village. You may not believe what others say, but my second sister always speaks the truth. How could she lie about her height?"
"Who doesn't want their child to grow taller and faster? But the child is still young, only five or six years old. Do you expect him to grow to 1.6 meters?"
Chen Shufang felt uncomfortable when she heard Ma Hongjuan's sarcastic words. She could now discipline her husband and son at home, so she definitely couldn't let others bully her outside.
When I was young, I was a bit timid. I let Xu Ruijin control me at home and was suppressed by the villagers when I went out.
Now in her fifties, Chen Shufang has figured it out. As the family's breadwinner, why should she be manipulated by her useless husband?
She would scold her disappointing son, and even her most beloved youngest daughter, she now felt a little disgusted with her.
"Don't try to get close to me here. If everyone is like you, how can I work? If you don't want to buy a ticket, please move aside. Next..."
Ma Hongjuan ignored Chen Shufang and raised her hand to let the person behind her come up.
"No, we didn't say we wouldn't buy it! Why is it the next one?"
Chen Shufang was so angry that she stomped her feet on the spot.
"Duoduo, you line up for us first, we'll go over there and bring the children over."
Chen Shuyue understood that it was pointless for them to keep wasting time with Ma Hongjuan.
In fact, you can see the billboard from here, and you can tell at a glance whether the children are big or small. It’s just that they just don’t want to pay attention to you and keep saying it’s just business, and there’s nothing they can do.
"Okay, then I'll wait in line first! Mom, you and auntie, it's okay to go slowly."
Jiang Duoduo remembered that there was no employee named Ma in her orchard, but it was normal for Zhang Shuisheng to hire a few more temporary workers when the orchard held activities. This had happened before.
But today, these orchard employees left a bad impression on Jiang Duoduo.
how to say……
It's that feeling of being particularly unforgiving when you are right.
Take the ticket seller for example. She wants to see the child before giving the half-price ticket. Jiang Duoduo thinks it is right. In reality, there are indeed many people who want to save some money by lying about their height.
When Jiang Duoduo was working part-time at university, she once saw a mother on the bus making her child stand hunched over the entire bus ride to save her two yuan fare.
So Jiang Duoduo agreed with her approach of selling tickets based on the customer, but as for her attitude... Jiang Duoduo really couldn't praise her. If this person worked in her hotel, Jiang Duoduo would have to lay her off and give her a few days of training on her service attitude.
"There are two of us, buy two adult tickets!"
"Okay, two for 196 yuan!"
"Next person……"
When Ma Hongjuan called the next person, Jiang Duoduo's child had not come yet, so she had to move one person back.
That's not right! Jiang Duoduo felt like the person she just let in seemed to have bought the ticket without paying?
The thin lady wanted to buy two adult tickets, and the staff member said 196. Then the thin lady didn't pay in cash, nor did she take out her mobile phone to scan the code, and the staff member tacitly gave her two tickets.
Oh my god! So he's using his power for personal gain!
I just thought that this person was conscientious at work but had a bad service attitude. I didn't expect that she would treat him differently based on his personality!
She always follows the principles when dealing with people she is not familiar with, does not know, or dislikes.
She can openly give tickets to acquaintances, relatives and friends, so they can enter the orchard directly without paying.
