Aunt Wu looked at Yao Xiujuan and smiled, "It's okay. The leaders of the regiment are not blind. They won't listen to one person's one-sided words. You and Chu Tian are both good children. I'm sure you will be fine."

"Okay, it's getting late, I'm going home first. I have to go to work in the afternoon..."

Old Mrs. Chu hurriedly grabbed her arm and said, "Why are you leaving? You'll be alone when you go back, and your grandson Guoan isn't here, so just eat at my house..."

"Don't refuse..."

Here, the two staff members returned and delivered the results of the investigation to Deputy Secretary Lu's desk.

Deputy Secretary Lu picked up the survey results and looked at them, asking, "How is it?"

The female steward spoke up in advance, "It has a good reputation. We asked a lot of people, and basically no one said anything bad about it."

Deputy Secretary Lu frowned. "What do you mean by basically nothing?"

The female secretary replied, "Because only his ex-sister-in-law said it was not good. But we later asked a few more people, and they all confirmed that it was his ex-sister-in-law who lied just to make things difficult for him..."

Deputy Secretary Lu glanced at the male official again. "What about you? What do you think?"

The male officer pushed his glasses up and nodded, "I agree with what Xiao Zhang said. I privately asked the children in their team about the woman who said bad things about Chu Tian. Even the children said she was bad, which means..."

Deputy Secretary Lu nodded slightly and threw the information in his hand on the table. "Okay, I understand. Go and inform Director Li."

Chu Tian learned from Director Li that afternoon that he had become the captain of the second team. He was surprised at how quickly the appointment was made. It was finalized in just two days?

Director Li saw that Chu Tian didn't respond, so he raised his voice a little, "Chu Tian? Did you hear that? You will be the captain of the second team in the future!"

Chu Tian reacted and nodded quickly, "Ah, I heard it, Director, please continue."

Director Li nodded and continued, "In the future, you must lead the members of Team 2 to work hard and don't make the same mistakes as Liu Jian."

"By the way, Zuo Zhuang has also been transferred to the second team and will continue to be your apprentice."

“·····”

Chu Tian looked at Director Li speechlessly, "Why? He can already be the main driver, why does he still want to be the assistant driver?"

Director Li spread his hands helplessly, "Then what can I do?"

"His father holds that position, and I can't fire him or anything..."

"Anyway, his requirements are not high. He just wants to be your assistant driver."

Chu Tian rubbed his temple helplessly, "Okay, I get it."

"Dad, you're back..."

"father···"

Chu Tian had just arrived at his doorstep on his bicycle when Xinxin and Pingping, who had been squatting nearby playing with the younger members of the Chu family, ran up to him.

Chu Tian reached out and wiped their heads. "Well, you're back. What are you playing?"

"Uncle Si, we are playing hopscotch..."

"Uncle Xiaoshi, this is what you taught us last time..."

Chu Tian stretched his head to look at the pattern drawn on the ground, nodded and said, "Well, then you guys continue playing!"

After saying that, he pushed his bicycle back to his home...

"Brother-in-law, you're back."

Yao Xiuli was carrying a basin of washed clothes from the backyard to the front yard, and saw Chu Tian coming back pushing a bicycle, so she hurried to greet him.

Chu Tian smiled and nodded, "Well, where are your elder sister and the others?"

Yao Xiuli answered without turning her head while putting on her clothes, "My eldest sister and Grandma Chu went to the captain's house."

Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, "You went to the captain's house? Did something happen?"

Yao Xiuli paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and turned to look at Chu Tian. "It should be because of the investigation by the regiment officer during the day, right?"

Chu Tian hesitated for a moment and asked, "What happened?"

Yao Xiuli grabbed Xinxin's clothes with both hands and shook them vigorously, then put them on the hemp rope. Without turning her head, she replied, "It must be because of what my brother-in-law said during the day, no, it's because of the nonsense my ex-sister-in-law said."

Chu Tian frowned, "Is she making trouble again?"

"I'll go take a look..."

Chu Tian turned around and was about to walk out of the yard, but before he walked out of the gate, he saw Yao Xiujuan and Old Lady Chu walking in, talking and laughing.

"Grandma, Xiujuan..."

When Mrs. Chu heard this, she looked up and saw Chu Tian. She smiled and waved, "My dear grandson, are you off work?"

Chu Tian smiled and nodded at Yao Xiujuan, then walked over to her and took her arm. As they walked in, he asked softly, "Grandma, what did you and Xiujuan do to Captain Sun?"

Mrs. Chu patted Chu Tian's hand and said, "It's okay, just go to work."

"By the way, what are the results of the investigation?"

Chu Tian smiled and said, "It's just a formality. Before I left work today, the director talked to me and told me that I will be the captain of the second team starting tomorrow."

Yao Xiujuan, who was following behind, was surprised when she heard this, "Brother Tian, ​​is it true?"

Chu Tian looked back at Yao Xiujuan and nodded with a smile, "Really, it's truer than real gold."

Yao Xiujuan grinned happily, "Oh, this is really good news..."

"Brother Tian, ​​what do you want to eat tonight? Let's make something delicious to celebrate?"

Chu Tian thought for a moment, "Are there any chickens left at home?"

Upon hearing this, Yao Xiujuan turned to Yao Xiuli in the courtyard and asked, "Xiuli, do you have any chickens at home?"

Yao Xiuli quickly responded, "Yes, my brother-in-law brought back three last time, but I only ate one, so there are two left."

Yao Xiujuan looked at Chu Tian, ​​"Brother Tian, ​​how do you want to eat it?"

Chu Tian thought about it carefully and finally made a decision, "I'll make half of it into soup and add more of grandma's dried wild mushrooms. I'll make the other half into spicy roast chicken. I woke up this morning and saw that the green chilies in the vegetable garden are growing well. I'll add more. It will definitely taste good."

After a pause, he continued, "By the way, let's make some small flower rolls as the staple food? Then stew them with the chicken..."

Yao Xiujuan smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll ask Xiu Li to do it right away."

After saying this, he turned around and walked out.

Only then did Mrs. Chu pull Chu Tian aside and admonish him, "My dear grandson, you must be careful in everything. No external wealth is as important as your own safety."

Chu Tian looked at Old Lady Chu steadily. Seeing the worry in her eyes, Chu Tian grinned and said, "Grandma, your grandson knows."

Old Mrs. Chu smiled and nodded, reaching out to touch Chu Tian's face, and murmured, "My dear grandson, you and your father are becoming more and more alike..."

Chu Tian blinked, watching the flash of tears in Old Lady Chu's eyes...

Here, in the staff dormitory of the steel plant, Liu Jiali sat on Yao Youjun's bed, watching him clean, and thought for a while before asking.

"Friends, we're already dating, shouldn't we..."

Before Liu Jiali finished speaking, Yao Youjun immediately took over.

"Jia Li, I just took a day off today. I plan to go back tomorrow and tell my parents. Then, after discussing it with the elders at home, I'll find a formal day to go to your house and propose marriage."
