When Jiang Ci woke up the two children early in the morning, she finally realized that there was something she hadn't told Zhou Mingli yet.
She'll go back to work in a few days. Once Zhou Yang and Zhou Miao are on winter break, there will be no one at home to take care of the two children.
Jiang Ci frowned in worry and rubbed her face.
Zhou Yang and Zhou Miao are only three years old. What if something happens if you leave the two children alone at home?
Should we hire someone to take care of them?
After finishing her meal and sending her two children to kindergarten, Jiang Ci started thinking of a solution.
Hiring someone to take care of you should be based on the actual situation.
They are currently living in someone else's house, which is only about 40 square meters. It doesn't feel too crowded because the child hasn't grown up yet. Once a third adult moves in, their house will probably be so cramped that it will be difficult to even turn around.
Unlike decades from now, there are no security cameras in the house. If the person you hire treats your two children badly or steals something, it will be a real problem.
Thinking about it, he rode his bicycle to the Cheng family's house.
Jiang Ci presented two gifts as a token of gratitude, one for the Cheng family and one for the Huo family.
Hobbens also made an introduction to her. Regardless of whether it was because of Hobbens' introduction or not, the Ho family's connections were not to be lost.
So today, in addition to thanking Cheng Yehan at the Cheng family, we also need to thank Hawkes at the Huo family.
I was supposed to go yesterday, but Jiang Ci was startled by the news of Xia Lei's release, and it was too late when I got home, so I didn't go.
She arrived rather late, and to her surprise, both Cheng Wenyun and Cheng Huasheng were home.
I was wondering why there was someone home today, since it's not a workday?
"Xiao Ci, you're here! Come in quickly!" Cheng Huasheng hurriedly led Jiang Ci into the courtyard.
Jiang Ci smiled as she pushed the bicycle inside, then took the thank-you gift and handed it to Cheng Huasheng. "I came here today to tell you some good news."
What kind of good news could make Jiang Ci deliver gifts to your door?
Jiang Ci laughed and said, "Yesterday afternoon, the people from the Personnel Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs officially confirmed that I would be joining the Protocol Department."
Cheng Huasheng's eyes widened in surprise. "Really?! Why did you only come to tell me about something this big today?"
Cheng Wenyun also looked at Jiang Ci in surprise. He never expected that she would actually get into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"Dad!" Cheng Huasheng turned and called to Cheng Yehan, "Xiao Ci has joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"
Cheng Yehan was in the study when she came out with a pen in her hand, looking quite calm. "With her abilities, it's not surprising that she can go anywhere. Look at your unsteady attitude."
Cheng Yehan waved to Jiang Ci, who immediately walked over with a bright smile on her face, "Grandpa, thank you."
"Well done." A smile appeared on Cheng Yehan's thin face as he looked Jiang Ci up and down. "You earned this yourself; I didn't help much."
His main career has been in fighter jets, and he now holds a very important position. However, because Cheng Yehan was once sent to a cowshed, even though he has been slandered for decades and is completely innocent, he cannot recommend anyone.
Cheng Wenyun poured her some tea, and the four of them sat down. Jiang Ci then told him what had happened yesterday.
"Because I wasn't sure if it would pass, I didn't tell you in advance. I got back a little late last night, so this morning I dropped Yangyang and Miaomiao off at kindergarten and then came over."
“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is quite busy, but the benefits are very good.” Cheng Wenyun said to Jiang Ci with a smile. “The Minister of Foreign Affairs used to be my superior. We worked together abroad. After being transferred back to China, I was transferred to the government, but he stayed in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”
Jiang Ci was extremely surprised, "Really?"
"It's true, there are small to large reshuffles every few years, which is to make people more familiar with the work of each position. This year's reshuffle is particularly large, and some employees in some departments may be newcomers like you."
Cheng Wenyun added a timely remark, which was actually a reminder.
There are many new people in your Ministry of Foreign Affairs now, so you have more opportunities to stand out. Make the most of them!
When Zhou Gou came here last time, he mentioned that Jiang Ci had been targeted by some important figures because of Liu Yinyin's instigation.
None of the Cheng family members present were fools; they were certainly aware of the implications.
The Jiang family is Cheng's benefactor. If they can't even protect her on their own turf, it's a real slap in the face for Cheng.
Jiang Ci nodded seriously, her expression solemn. "I've got it."
Cheng Huasheng looked at Jiang Ci and said, "Wen Yun and I are here today because we have news about who that person Zhou Gou mentioned last week is."
Jiang Ci's spirits lifted. "Someone connected to Liu Yinyin?!"
Cheng Huasheng nodded, his expression somewhat solemn, and glanced at Cheng Wenyun.
Cheng Wenyun coughed and said, "I had people investigate the people Liu Yinyin has been in contact with most frequently since arriving in Beijing, as well as the person who contacted the secretary of Zhongmo Town."
"After Liu Yinyin arrived in Beijing, although the old man of the Xia family treated her well, she didn't seem to be doing well in the Xia family. She moved to a tenement. The person that Battalion Commander Zhou told us about who was in contact with Zhao Wen in Zhongmo Town had a good relationship with Guo Zhen. It must have been Guo Zhen who asked him to do this."
Cheng Huasheng, who was standing nearby, gave Jiang Ci a brief introduction to the Guo family.
The Guo family itself doesn't have any particularly powerful background; the most powerful person in the family is Guo Zhen.
He was an extraordinary person. He was a soldier who transferred to a government agency. Even when the red armband was in vogue, his career was thriving. At only thirty-eight years old, he climbed to a position that others might only reach in their forties or fifties.
Guo Zhen is a man of many talents and abilities, and most importantly, he is very good at choosing sides!
In October of this year, power was reshuffled across the country, and Guo Zhen took advantage of this opportunity to rise to a higher position. It is no exaggeration to say that he now holds a high position and great power.
The person Liu Yinyin was looking for was this Guo Zhen.
Jiang Ci's expression darkened upon hearing Guo Zhen's position.
What stands before Jiang Ci is no longer just a mountain, but an insurmountable barrier.
It's said that the common people can't fight against officials, but Jiang Ci has now changed his identity and is now trying to become an official as well.
But there's another saying: "A higher-ranking official can crush you."
That's what you call the protagonist's halo, isn't it?
Xia Lei, with overwhelming evidence of his crime, was released from prison in less than three months.
Liu Yinyin, despite being in a predicament, still managed to find a powerful and influential person like Guo Zhen to rely on.
Now, Liu Yinyin is holding Guo Zhen's gun and pointing it at her.
If she were sniped, Jiang Ci wouldn't even know how she died.
She listened quietly to Cheng Wenyun's words without saying a word.
“Liu Yinyin and Guo Zhen are on good terms now, so it must be her who asked Guo Zhen to deal with you.” Cheng Wenyun saw that she looked unwell and knew that she was under a lot of pressure. “You don’t need to worry so much. Guo Zhen and you are not in the same system. As far as I know, Guo Zhen does not have any connections in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Minister of Foreign Affairs is also a very protective person. He cherishes talent very much.”
