Volume 1 Chapter 70 A Letter from Gu Tingxiao

"Comrade Sheng Wanyan must be kept."

The deputy factory director expressed his gratitude and said that Comrade Sheng Wanyan had been a great help.

"Secretary Fang, ask the finance department to give Comrade Sheng Wanyan an extra 10 yuan in salary and 5 kilograms of food coupons."

"Yes, Director."

Secretary Fang nodded and went to the Finance Department immediately. When Sheng Wanyan received her salary, she was stunned when she saw the extra bonus.

"This is the bonus the factory gave you. Your publicity efforts this time were very good."

"Yes, yes! It would be great if this standard is followed in the future."

The people from the Finance Department started chatting with her. Once someone has achieved something, everyone wants to have a good relationship with you.

Back then, she was afraid of offending the people in the Finance Department, because they looked down on everyone except the leaders.

Now that I'm talking to her...

"We'll try our best!"

Sheng Wanyan will never be in charge of such a big business again, it makes her exhausted.

"Comrade Sheng Wanyan, after get off work, do you want to go out for dinner with us?"

"Yes, yes, let's make friends with each other and get to know each other."

The sisters in the Finance Department were all very enthusiastic, so enthusiastic that Sheng Wanyan was a little overwhelmed.

"No, I have to go home and cook."

"So how about tomorrow?"

"Yeah, tomorrow is fine!"

Sheng Wanyan counted her salary and found that she actually had plans for tomorrow.

"We're having a Propaganda Department dinner tomorrow. I'll definitely have a chance next time!"

Sheng Wanyan just wants to handle the relationship with her colleagues well, there is no need for them to be too close.

After all, these are married people with children, and they are about the same age as her mother. How can they get along with each other?

There is a generation gap!

When the people in the Finance Department heard that they were going to have a dinner with the Propaganda Department tomorrow, they gave up their thoughts and could only wait until next time to build a good relationship with Comrade Sheng Wanyan:

"Then next time!"

"Okay, okay."

Sheng Wanyan signed her name on the pay slip and quickly left the Finance Department.

When I went home, I specially bought 2 kilograms of meat. When I gave my salary to Sheng's mother, she saw the extra money and kept asking me what happened.

Sheng Wanyan explained the reason, and when Sheng's mother heard it, she looked at her in surprise.

"Did your factory director personally put you in charge of the publicity for your Propaganda Department this time?"

"yes."

"After the city leaders arrived today, the factory director specifically ordered you to receive a bonus?"

"yes!"

Mother Sheng couldn't believe it and pinched Sheng Wanyan's thigh hard!

“Ah! It hurts!”

Sheng Wanyan rubbed her thigh flesh. Why did he pinch her thigh for no reason?

“It hurts, it really does!!!”

"My girl! You have made it!"

Mother Sheng patted her thigh happily and immediately ran out to share the news with her family.

When her family heard this, they immediately became excited and kept asking her for details.

"Do the leaders of this city know you?"

Mother Sheng's mind is full of

"Mom, I'm just an ordinary worker."

Sheng Wanyan's words brought Mother Sheng back to reality, and Grandpa Sheng patted the table.

"This is a good thing, but Yan'er is just an ordinary worker."

"Don't spread it everywhere, don't make it public!"

"Don't bring unnecessary trouble."

Grandpa Sheng’s words calmed everyone in the family down, and Grandma Sheng patted Sheng Wanyan’s hand.

"Your grandfather is right. You are too dazzling in the factory now. You need to be calm and low-key for a while."

"Grandma, I understand."

"Girl, listen to your grandparents."

Father Sheng also understood the twists and turns involved. Although this was something that made people very proud, one should not forget that it was also something that made people very jealous.

"I will keep a low profile next time."

Sheng Wanyan really did what she said. The next day, she started knitting a sweater while at work.

When Wu Jiaxiu saw her start knitting a sweater, she also brought her own wool from home and started knitting the next day.

Once there is a first time, there will be a second time. The style of the Propaganda Department has suddenly returned to the days when it was not doing its job properly...

Ever since Sheng Wanyan became known to the city leaders, Director Wang could only suppress his thoughts. He knew that Sheng Wanyan could not be provoked now.

If anything happened to Sheng Wanyan, the factory would not let it go so easily.

So he can only shift his target for the time being and wait until Sheng Wanyan’s limelight has passed.

Sooner or later he will get the beauty!

Without the occasional encounters with Director Wang, Sheng Wanyan has been living a very comfortable life this month.

Not only did I finish knitting the remaining sweaters in a whole month, but I also received books and royalties for translation from a Kyoto newspaper.

Not only that, she also received a letter from Gu Tingxiao and a large package for her.

The letters that Gu Tingxiao sent to her contained money bills and letters to her.

He sent out 50 yuan, 40 of which was salary, 10 yuan was task bonus, and the rest were some bills.

The most important thing was the big package he sent to her. When she opened it, she found a pair of rabbit fur gloves, a rabbit fur scarf, and a large mink fur!

This mink fur is so rare that it is considered a luxury even in later generations. Its warmth retention level is simply incomparable to that of ordinary clothes.

Sheng Wanyan opened the letter he wrote. Gu Tingxiao's handwriting was very sharp, not as delicate as hers.

To Comrade Sheng Wanyan:

Now I have been back to the team for a long time, and I miss you very much.

I wonder how you have been doing lately?

I have received the food you sent, and have distributed it to my future brother-in-law as you instructed.

My eldest brother-in-law found out that we were dating and challenged me to a duel.

Although I lost in the end, I lost willingly!

I still have to give this little face to my brother-in-law.

Seeing that you wrote a lot about what happened to you during this period, I can imagine that your days are very fulfilling.

This way I could feel more at ease, so I sent you half of my salary and bills, and the rest I sent back home for household use as you instructed.

I have already told my family that I am dating. They are very happy and really hope that our two families can meet as soon as possible.

I know very well that we have not been together for a long time, but if I don’t aim to get married, I would be a hooligan!

I have already kept my family in check. When Comrade Sheng Wanyan thinks we can talk about marriage, please let me know at any time!

I have been preparing to marry you all the time!

…

…

I hope to take a vacation and see you soon. Please take good care of yourself and don’t worry!

Comrade Gu Tingxiao!

Sheng Wanyan was stunned for a long time after reading the contents of the letter. Gu Tingxiao only spent one day with her, and the rest of the time they were communicating through letters.

How did it come to the stage of discussing marriage? ? ? ?

I have to say that in this era, marriage is really quick, unlike in later generations where you can change the partner at any time if the relationship is not suitable.

Sheng Wanyan would not let down the innocent love others had for her. She made it clear in the letter that she was not being rude.
