Chapter 141 Purchase of Fine Ingredients
After breakfast, Lin Chen did not go to the steel mill with Bai Ling. Today was the monthly treatment time for Commander Wu of the Military Control Office...
Lin Chen just took the opportunity to ask him to help transfer Wen Li to Hongxing Primary School... It's convenient to be close to the water, and she can stay away from the heavy machinery factory. Especially the director who introduced her to a date...
As soon as Bai Ling arrived at the gate, she was waited for by Yan Bugui.
"Hello, Director Bai. I'm Yan Bugui, a teacher at Red Star Primary School who lives in our front yard. I was out yesterday, so I missed the chance to say hello to you."
Bai Ling had heard Qin Huairu mention the name of this Third Master...
"Hello, Teacher Yan. We will live in the same courtyard from now on. There will be many opportunities to meet each other... I heard that you are the third uncle who is in charge of our courtyard, right?"
Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly: "What do you mean by manager? I just help mediate minor conflicts between neighbors. We all live in the same courtyard, so it's inevitable that there will be some minor frictions."
The two chatted briefly and then left the alley. Bai Ling rode her bike towards the steel mill.
Yan Bugui looked at Bai Ling's back and shook his head, but he finally managed to start a conversation.
"I really don't know what's going on! It's already a big deal that Lin Chen is the deputy section chief. I didn't expect that a girl would be the director... Is this courtyard a Feng Shui treasure land that will produce high-ranking officials? I don't know if the three boys from my Yan family can become directors."
……
On the way to work, Liu Haizhong discussed this matter with Yi Zhonghai, and Yi Zhonghai didn't know what to do for a while.
Now that Bai Ling is a girl, several families have been thinking about how to treat her to a meal.
"Old Liu, it's not easy to win over a female comrade! She's a girl, and right now, only Qin Huairu from the Lin family has an advantage. Others really can't..."
Liu Haizhong asked his wife to invite them last night, but they didn't come to Liu's house for dinner at all.
"Yes, we don't have the right people to connect with them...and they are all from cadre families."
After Liu Haizhong was rejected yesterday, his desire to become a cadre became even stronger. He thought that if he were a workshop director or something, the other party would definitely give him face...
And the old man who is in charge of a slum doesn't have a penny to use. The deputy section chief doesn't even pay attention to him, let alone the director.
……
Lin Chen left the Military Control Office at ten o'clock in the morning... Wen Li's job transfer was no big deal to Commander Wu.
According to Wen Li's petty-bourgeois sentiments, it is easiest for Lin Chen to win her heart.
On the other hand, Wen Li has been full of love for Lin Chen since Lin Chen deliberately made the mistake. In addition, Xu Huizhen promised to help her deal with Qin Huairu, so now she is thinking about how to go to Chaoyang again...
Steel rolling mill canteen
When Jia Dongxu was getting his meal, he deliberately avoided Sha Zhu, the idiot. However, in order to avenge the punch he received yesterday morning, Sha Zhu also specifically stared at Jia Dongxu and Yi Zhonghai...
"Damn it, you guys line up over there and I'll go switch to that window. I'll make sure you guys can't get anything to eat."
Sha Zhu is now an apprentice, and with He Daqing's protection, the ordinary workers in the cafeteria don't bother with him. If he wants to change the window, he can change it for him...
This really pissed Jia Dongxu off. He had boasted to Ma Lan about his victory last night. He was going to be retaliated against at dinner today... It was almost his turn, and now it was time for another team to line up again. Not to mention that Sha Zhu would follow.
When it was Jia Dongxu's turn to get food, the two of them looked at each other angrily.
"Silly Zhu, don't go too far, or I'll beat you up after get off work."
Sha Zhu is not afraid of him. He has his father to deal with Yi Zhonghai... and his stepmother to deal with Jia Zhang. So he is not afraid of the Jia family.
"If you have the guts, just come at me. Don't use useless weapons."
As Sha Zhu spoke, he stirred the wok frantically. As you can imagine, Jia Dongxu got the smallest steamed bread that Sha Zhu had carefully prepared and a lunch box of cabbage soup...
Jia Dongxu wanted to argue further, but the people in the queue behind him refused to listen.
"Just go ahead and quarrel somewhere else and don't disturb everyone's meal. Do you believe we will beat you up?"
Jia Dongxu looked at the smug Sha Zhu and really wanted to hit him with his lunch box.
"Just wait for me. I'll deal with you after get off work."
"Tsk, I, He Yuzhu, am afraid of you! Three axes and one..."
……
Lin Chen, who was eating in the same cafeteria, saw their quarrel clearly and could even hear their conversations...
Bai Ling, who was sitting opposite, was smiling as she watched Lin Chen eat, so she rolled her eyes at him.
"Why are you laughing while eating? No one is talking..."
Lin Chen pointed to the window where she could get food.
"Did you see that? Stupid Zhu Jia Dongxu is quarreling again. They had just had a fight before you came yesterday..."
Bai Ling thought about how funny that silly guy looked yesterday with swollen eye circles...
"Is it okay for me to go play with your cousin later?"
Lin Chen looked at Liang Ladi who was chatting and laughing with her co-workers not far away.
"No problem, you are all lesbians, who will care about you. She can be friends with you, the director of the security department, and no one will dare to bully her in the future."
……
Wenli also received a notice from the principal.
In the principal's office, fearing that Wenli would be unhappy and unwilling to be transferred to a place so far away from home, the principal and several other people took turns to persuade the little girl...to let her go to work at Red Star Primary School obediently.
When Wen Li heard that she was transferred to work at Red Star Primary School, she immediately became excited.
These past two days I've been thinking about how I can get closer to Lin Chen so that I can see him more easily, and now I'm here!
"Principal, Director, I understand what you said. I will obey the organization's arrangements. I will pack up this afternoon and report in. I can't delay going to work tomorrow..."
They looked at each other and nodded in satisfaction.
"Okay, okay, Comrade Wenli is very conscious! I knew you would agree... Go ahead and your file will be transferred as well."
Wenli left the school happily. She finally had an excuse to explain to her family. She couldn't come back every day after going to Red Star Primary School...
……
Lunch break
After Lin Chen glanced at the wives everywhere, he left the office...
Now the medicinal fields in the space are enough, so he wants to find some fine food and fruits. Jingyang rice, Wannian tribute rice, Tibetan fragrant pig, butter crab, yellow croaker... sea cucumber, anyway, there is no surveillance now, who knows where he will appear.
Lin Chen thought that since he couldn't eat in the courtyard, he would eat in the small yard outside. Let's see who can take care of it... Just get some seeds and cubs, and the ones that reproduce in a few days will be enough to eat for a few years...
……
Wenli started packing her things as soon as she got home. Her parents didn't think much about it when they heard that it was a job transfer.
"Wen Li, you have to take good care of yourself when you go there, okay? You have to learn to cook for yourself in the future..."
"Mom, I'm not going to work in another city to make you nervous. It's just that it's a little far from home and it's inconvenient for me to come back. Don't worry, I can take care of myself."
"I really don't understand why you suddenly got transferred to another job."
In fact, Wen Li didn’t know either, but she was suspecting that it was related to Lin Chen all the way back.
She wanted to ask if Xu Huizhen had said anything to Lin Chen.
