Ye Shuning, a Doctor of Chemistry, was struck by a meteorite and transmigrated into a chronicle novel she had read, becoming the male lead's cannon fodder ex-wife.
She just wants to stay ...
Yang Jinping couldn't care about anything else now. Her second son's marriage was the most important thing, so after Li Shaozhong and others came back from get off work, she said she wanted to go home.
Li Shaozhong was of course very happy when he heard that his second brother was getting married. "Then I'll have someone book your plane ticket, or fly back. When the date for my second brother's wedding is set, please let us know. Our whole family and Jingyu will go to attend my second brother's wedding together."
Living with his mother these days, he'd fully felt the tension between her and his wife. He didn't want his mother to be unhappy, and he didn't want his wife to feel wronged. He was caught between the two, feeling incredibly awkward.
His daughter-in-law was afraid of embarrassing him, so she had been enduring his mother's criticism. He couldn't help but feel relieved when his mother was leaving.
He felt that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were really not suitable to live together.
Li Shaozhong actually knew that his mother had some opinion of Xiao Ning from the beginning. Although he didn't show it later, he still hadn't let it go. This time when he came to Haizhou, it showed.
Ye Shuning was relieved that her mother-in-law was leaving. Her mother-in-law was her elder, and she had to endure her dissatisfaction with her or her opinions, otherwise her husband would be caught in the middle and embarrassed.
She was patient because her mother-in-law was only staying with her for a short period of time, not permanently, and she didn't want to cause a rift and embarrass her husband. Maintaining superficial peace was best.
Ye Shuning had to buy more gifts for her mother-in-law to take back with her. Even if her mother-in-law disliked her, she still had to fulfill her filial duty. Moreover, she still had her father-in-law, who was really good to her.
Ye Shuning and Li Shaozhong bought a lot of Haizhou specialties and clothes together.
Li Shaozhong knew that his wife was always generous, and it was really hard to say what he could do. Although he didn't know what other people's daughters-in-law were like, the daughters-in-law of the neighbors in the compound were not any better than his.
Yang Jinping secretly gave Li Shaozhong some instructions and then went back with the bags.
Li Shaozhong and his wife personally sent the person to the airport.
Watching the plane take off, Ye Shuning breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling the bright sunshine and fresh air.
Li Shaozhong looked at his wife and said, "I've been having a hard time these past few days." She breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Shuning shrugged and smiled, "It's good that you know. But have you been affected by what Mom said? Do you think it's inappropriate for me to interact with the opposite sex?"
Li Shaozhong felt uneasy when he heard his wife say this. "How could that be? The people you interact with are all our friends. This is normal communication. Besides, they are all our partners. How can we not interact with them?"
"Xiao Ning, times have changed. It's no longer just talk that women hold up half the sky. Take you for example, how many men can compare to you? We still have to work together to create miracles, so how can we be bound by those old ideas? Just do what you want to do. I hope you live freely. We live our own lives. Don't take my mother's words to heart."
Ye Shuning hugged Li Shaozhong's arm and said, "Okay, I didn't take it to heart. I still have some magnanimity. Let's go back."
The laboratory has been basically built and will be put into use once the decoration is completed.
They now have to worry about recruiting scientific researchers. Although they have been in contact before, the laboratory has not been built yet, and the salary and benefits are just talk, without any ready-made examples, so some people are still waiting and watching.
Wei Chen had always performed well, and Li Shaozhong and Ye Shuning both wanted to transfer him to the laboratory. Although he had left the Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory, his future prospects would be even better.
However, this matter must be discussed with Wei Chen first. His consent must be obtained before Li Shaozhong can go to Director Zeng to ask for the person.
Ye Shuning handed the matter over to her husband and stopped worrying about it.
The glass factory was almost finished, and Ye Shuning and Ling Xuan discussed that he would be in charge of some factory affairs first, while Ling Xuan would be in charge of recruiting workers for the glass factory. They were going to start recruiting.
It is impossible for Ling Xuan to stay in Haizhou to manage the glass factory forever, so the glass factory has to find a professional manager to take charge of it.
Ye Shuning and Li Shaozhong discussed it and decided to look for someone with similar work experience. They could also open the job posting, just in case someone applied.
In addition to management personnel, technicians, workshop operators, etc. also need to be recruited.
Operators must undergo training before they can take up their posts, and technicians must also be familiar with the equipment and process.
Li Shaozhong found Wei Chen at work and said, "Wei Chen, the laboratory in Jiangdong will be completed soon. Would you like to work there? Once you go there, you will be a laboratory employee. You also know that we have built a large residential building there. Some of it is for sale, and most of it is intended to be distributed to our employees.
I'll give you a two-bedroom apartment in Jiangdong. Your salary will be double your current salary. Bonuses will be given based on your achievements. The benefits are definitely better than here.
Furthermore, in the future, the research and development of new products at the Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory will gradually be transferred to the laboratory in Jiangdong. Consider this."
Ye Shuning had revealed this idea to Wei Chen before, and Wei Chen was of course willing to follow someone more capable.
He said without hesitation: "Don't think about it, I'm willing to go to the laboratory in Jiangdong."
He'd be a fool not to go. Not only would he get a house there, his salary would double, and he'd get bonuses. Most importantly, there were more promising careers there. And working with his idol, Mr. Ye, was exactly what he'd always dreamed of.
A gentleman will die for his friend. Mr. Ye has trained him so well, and he wants to repay Mr. Ye.
Li Shaozhong knew that Wei Chen was a smart man who didn't cling to his so-called iron rice bowl. "Okay, since you agree, I will personally speak to Director Zeng about your matter. Just wait for my news."
After Wei Chen agreed, Li Shaozhong found Zeng Bosheng and told him about Wei Chen.
Zeng Bosheng pointed at Li Shaozhong and said with a smile, "You are trying to poach the best people in this laboratory."
Li Shaozhong smiled and said, "This is also for the Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory. Xiao Ning and I will be doing research in the laboratory in Jiangdong. It has the most advanced experimental equipment in the country, if not the most advanced. New products of the Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory will also be transferred there for research and development. So transferring Wei Chen there is also to facilitate research. It would be a waste of talent for him to stay here."
Zeng Bosheng also knew the scale of the laboratory in Jiangdong and that Li Shaozhong and his team had spent a lot of money to buy a lot of advanced experimental equipment. The conditions there were much better than the laboratory in their Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory.
He readily agreed to let Wei Chen transfer there. Even if he disagreed, it wouldn't necessarily stop Wei Chen from going to a better unit.
However, with the laboratory in Jiangdong, Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory would not have to worry about developing new products. As long as Ye Shuning was in charge, he believed that Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory would not have to worry about new products.
