Chapter 766 Celebration for 3 Little Ones
After learning about San Xiao's workplace, Zhou Tian originally thought about giving a greeting to the managers of the two factories, but after giving it some thought, he gave up the idea.
Although he was not very famous in the entire city, he did not believe that the two factory managers did not know him.
After all, considering his contributions to the industrial circle of Beijing, there should be very few people who don’t know him.
Besides, if the job assigned by Sanxiao is really not satisfactory, it won’t be too late for him to say hello.
Sure enough, when he returned home, he saw the whole family gathered around the three children, asking them questions one after another, especially Zhou Zhiming and Zhou Zhiye, who looked at them wearing work uniforms that were one size too small, with envy in their eyes.
"Brother, sister, which department of the First Steel Rolling Mill have you been assigned to?"
They will graduate next year, so naturally they want to know about the treatment of technical secondary school students in factories. Although they have asked many people about it, it is still not as reliable as their own brothers and sisters' personal experience.
Just when Zhou Zhiqiu, Zhou Zhiyi and Zhou Zhinan were about to answer, they saw their father coming back from get off work and immediately came up to him happily. Zhou Zhiyi, in particular, was so diligent that he took off his father's coat and hung it up. Zhou Tian couldn't help but feel warmed when he saw this.
"How is it going? Have all the tasks been assigned?"
Seeing that the three kids all looked happy, he asked deliberately.
"Dad, everything has been arranged. I have been assigned to the Publicity Department's broadcasting room as an announcer! Administrative level 7 clerk, salary is 37.5 yuan!"
Zhou Zhiyi said happily.
"Dad, there's me too. I was assigned to the Technical Department and I'm also a Level 7 clerk. My salary is the same as my younger sister's!"
"Dad, I was assigned to the Logistics and Personnel Department, at the same level as my eldest brother and second sister, and the salary is the same!"
After hearing Zhou Zhiyi's words, Zhou Zhinan and Zhou Zhiqiu also spoke hurriedly.
"Okay, not bad, it seems that the positions you have been assigned are pretty good!"
Hearing about the positions of the three children, Zhou Tian could not help but nodded. As far as he knew, most technical secondary school students were assigned as intern level 8 clerks at the beginning, and would be promoted to level 7 clerks after working for a year. However, Sanxiao was directly assigned as level 7 clerk. If Zhou Tian's face was not involved, he naturally did not believe it.
Sanxiao and Shen Jie naturally knew this, so Sanxiao was so happy.
"Okay, since everyone is here today, I'll make a delicious meal right away to celebrate Xiao Zhiqiu, Zhiyi, and Zhinan joining the workforce!"
Zhou Tian also announced after seeing that the whole family was happy about San Xiao's work.
"Great, I can finally eat my dad's cooking again!"
After hearing their father's words, Zhou Zhiyi and Zhou Zhinan couldn't help but cheer loudly.
"Why? Is your mother's cooking so unpalatable to you?"
Zhou Zhiqiu, who was standing by, felt something was wrong when he heard the shouts from his second sister and third brother. He was about to warn them, but sure enough, he saw his mother's happy face darken and she spoke in an unfriendly tone.
"No, Mom, I didn't say that!"
Seeing that his mother was angry, Zhou Zhinan immediately shook his head and hid behind his grandmother in fear.
"Mom, don't be angry. How can your cooking not suit my taste? I love your cooking. Isn't dad's cooking more delicious?"
Zhou Zhiyi, however, was not afraid at all. He walked straight forward, grabbed his mother's hand, and began to speak in a coquettish tone, with a pair of eyes like apricot blossoms flashing with a flattering smile.
"You damn girl, you just have a big mouth!"
After being annoyed by Zhou Zhiyi, Shen Yulin's face immediately regained its smile. He tapped her forehead and said unhappily.
Seeing their mother smiling again, the children's frightened hearts finally relaxed and the atmosphere returned to its previous lively state.
"Okay, you all should spend some time with your great-grandmother and grandma. Daughter-in-law, let's go and cook!"
Watching this scene, Zhou Tian felt amused and helpless. After all, she was the only daughter in the family. To be honest, she was the most favored one in the family.
So in general, as long as the daughter speaks up, the frequency of the wife getting angry will basically decrease.
After greeting his grandparents, father-in-law and mother-in-law, Zhou Tian and his wife walked into the kitchen.
"Boss, the children all have good jobs now, why don't you let them join the army!"
In the kitchen, Shen Yulin began to wash the vegetables skillfully, but she couldn't help but say.
"It's up to them to decide. In fact, the reason why I let them work first is, on the one hand, I hope they can see if the job suits them, and on the other hand, it's for their future consideration!"
Zhou Tian said as he heated the water and the pot.
"The children have grown up, and it is not good for us to interfere too much in many things. Since they want to join the army, we should support them. These three jobs are also to provide them with a guarantee for their future retirement or transfer to civilian jobs!"
After all, people usually go to the army in October, and it's only mid-August now.
He didn't know whether his children could make it in the army, but as long as they had these three jobs, it would be a guarantee for them when they retire in the future. He knew how hard it would be to find a job in the future.
Even he doesn't dare to find a job for others as easily as before, especially in the next ten years, when everyone has to do one job.
"But whenever I think about not being able to see my two children for the next few years, I get anxious!"
Shen Yulin sighed reluctantly, and his tone became heavy.
"Well, serving as a soldier to defend our country is actually a good thing. Other people's children can serve as soldiers, so why are our children so special? Besides, the children all have Xingyiquan taught by me. Zhiyi and Zhiqiu's Xingyiquan have reached Mingjin. Under normal circumstances, the children will not be in danger!"
Listening to his wife's words, Zhou Tian could only say comfortingly.
In fact, he was worried in his heart, but as a man, especially the head of the family, he could not show it. Although he also knew that in the next ten years, there would only be a few battles to fight and basically no major battles.
But as long as people go to the battlefield, there will be casualties, and guns and cannons have no eyes.
But no matter what, since it is the children's decision, he still has to support it.
With Zhou Tian's comfort, Shen Yulin's emotions gradually stabilized, and with the cooperation of the two, ten fragrant dishes were ready to be served.
With a basket full of steamed white flour buns, the eight children who were chatting with their grandparents and parents-in-law outside all stopped what they were doing and looked straight towards the kitchen, breathing in the aroma that filled the room from time to time!
"Mom, it smells so good. I'm hungry. Is the food ready?"
Just when Zhou Tian had put all the dishes on the plates, his daughter Zhou Zhiyi ran in and asked impatiently.
