If it's not human, then it must be a person.
Shen Fenghua and his wife had no idea about their child's audacious conversation.
The next day was the same as usual, but it was time to give out benefits – it was Mid-Autumn Festival.
The procurement department was short-staffed, so they simply dragged Shen Fenghua along to help, claiming that Shen Fenghua didn't have much to do anyway since she just sat in the office all day.
Why not go out and get some exercise?
Shen Fenghua didn't want to wander around aimlessly. The county town had been quite restless lately. The seemingly harmonious and cheerful atmosphere was just an illusion, and it could be shattered if one wasn't careful.
Do less, and you'll avoid trouble.
However, Shen Fenghua was tempted by He Tiantian from the purchasing department, "Oh, why do you think I came to you?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Fenghua exclaimed, "Wow, what's going on? There's more to this than meets the eye."
He Tiantian blinked. "You'll find out if you come with me."
Shen Fenghua and He Tiantian went to help out. The two rode their bicycles along the road, preparing to go to various factories to purchase goods.
Their destination was the cannery.
Shen Fenghua raised an eyebrow. "Our factory is as generous as ever this year."
He Tiantian raised her eyebrows. "That's for sure. I've already checked out this year's benefits. For example, team leaders and directors will each get an extra can of oranges."
"So, we're here today to talk about canned oranges?"
He Tiantian chuckled, "You underestimate our factory too much. The team leader and director are just canned oranges, but we have people above us. Just canned oranges aren't enough to make us look good."
"Then what do we need to do?"
Canned goods are mostly canned yellow peaches, then the rarer canned oranges, and what else...?
Shen Fenghua was unaware of the situation. "Stop keeping me in suspense and tell me quickly."
He Tiantian blinked, looking mysterious, "It's canned strawberries."
strawberry!
Upon hearing this, Shen Fenghua's eyes lit up. Canned strawberries! No wonder they were so rare. Just hearing about them made Shen Fenghua feel like she couldn't control her drooling.
To be honest, she wasn't this out of control even when she got married.
Shen Fenghua quickened her pace, "Hurry up, what are we waiting for? If we're late, they might all be booked." He Tiantian only stumbled for a moment before she could only see Shen Fenghua's back in the distance.
He Tiantian: "..."
Disheveled in the wind.
Honestly, I never realized Shen Fenghua had such energy.
However, looking at this new identity, He Tiantian was still quite happy. The old Shen Fenghua seemed somewhat soulless, doing whatever she wanted without a care in the world.
It was like a puppet on strings, running along a track it had set for itself. But now it's different; it's obviously much more lively and vibrant.
"Feng Hua, wait for me!"
Shen Fenghua's voice carried from the noisy street, "Then you'd better keep up!"
As Shen Fenghua had guessed, the strawberry cans were only a small quantity, and if they had arrived even ten minutes later, they would have been ordered by the cotton mill.
Seeing the steel mill that had gotten there first, the cotton mill's purchasing department couldn't help but roll its eyes twice.
However, even though she was given the cold shoulder, He Tiantian was still delighted. She was overjoyed and snorted back without any politeness. After all, sometimes, luck is also a kind of strength!
By getting closer to the person, Shen Fenghua bought more than a dozen cans of food. Of course, she wasn't picky at all; all the canned food, regardless of flavor, was in high demand.
What's there to be picky about? It's good enough to have something to eat.
Why are you being so picky? You're not royalty.
She bought a bag of canned goods, more than a dozen in total, weighing over ten kilograms. If it weren't for the warm and thoughtful young man from the cannery, Shen Fenghua wouldn't know what to do.
Looking at the dozen or so cans of food that were securely tied up on the back seat of the car, she said sincerely, "Thank you."
Shen Fenghua's smiling face was quite charming, especially to young men just experiencing the first stirrings of love.
"No, you're welcome."
Shen Fenghua left, and He Tiantian couldn't wait to go home and eat her canned food. However, He Tiantian was a little slower because no one was helping her. Looking at Shen Fenghua's back, she looked up and saw the young man's bright red ears and sparkling eyes.
Well, I've charmed another one.
Since He Tiantian had already secured the order, she went straight to the point, "Don't look at me, little brother. This older sister is already taken."
"Even if the flower is taken, I'm not afraid. Let me come over and loosen the soil."
After saying this, the young man was stunned, and He Tiantian was also dumbfounded, "You..."
She wanted to call the young man morally corrupt, but before she could finish her sentence, he slipped away.
He Tiantian: "..."
have to.
She hopped on her bicycle and caught up with Shen Fenghua. Of course, she didn't relay what the person behind her had said; it was better to avoid trouble than to get involved.
She had already made up her mind that, if possible, she would not bring Shen Fenghua next time.
Why are you running so fast?
Shen Fenghua's eyes were particularly bright, like a deer's. "Going home! I couldn't get any canned food when Grandma came before. This time I finally got some, so I have to take it back for Grandma to have a good taste."
Seeing how much Shen Fenghua cared about her family, He Tiantian was taken aback for a moment, then said with some envy, "You're not bad either."
After finishing her conversation, He Tiantian remembered the important things she needed to do today.
"By the way, what do you think of the position in the procurement department?"
Shen Fenghua thought for a moment, "It's quite tiring. I saw some young men in your department coming back late at night, looking pitiful, their car tires had blown out."
He Tiantian: "..."
Well, that's the truth.
A steel mill is a large factory after all, and maintaining its operations is not something that can be done in a few words.
"That's a man, he'll definitely be going to the countryside to buy things. What I mean is, what do you think of my job?"
Only now did He Tiantian reveal her true intentions.
Shen Fenghua's eyes darted around, and she asked warily, "What do you mean?"
He Tiantian looked at Shen Fenghua and didn't want to beat around the bush with her anymore. She took her directly to a small stall next to her, ordered two bottles of Beibingyang soda, and then spoke frankly.
"I want to switch jobs with you."
Shen Fenghua: "..."
She looked a little bewildered. "Are you tired of your job?"
"No," He Tiantian gave a bitter smile, "it's just that I'm leaving soon."
"Gone?" What does that mean? Shen Fenghua looked surprised and uncertain. He Tiantian looked at Shen Fenghua and finally couldn't help but start to complain, "It means exactly what it says. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will leave here."
