They walked to the office door and knocked gently, "Knock knock knock~"
"Come in." A pleasant voice came from the office. The voice revealed a unique mature charm, just like a fine wine that has been aged for many years, which makes people intoxicated.
The two exchanged glances and walked into the room. Their eyes scanned the surroundings calmly. The spacious and bright office was decorated in a simple and generous manner, yet it was elegant.
The desk is neatly arranged with documents and stationery, showing the owner's rigor and seriousness.
Finally, their eyes fell on the middle-aged woman sitting behind the desk. She was dressed in a well-fitting suit, leaning back in her chair, her eyes revealing gentleness and wisdom.
Time didn't seem to have left many marks on her face; instead, it gave her more charm and confidence. She smiled and said in a friendly tone, "Now that you're here, please take a seat."
"Sister Huang." The two of them greeted with a smile.
Huang Jie heard the voice and looked up to see a man and a woman standing in front of her. She silently looked at the two people. They had clear eyes, were neatly dressed, and had decent looks. She thought, "The one who will take over her job should be a woman. Not bad, she looks like someone who is easy to deal with. That's good. She doesn't want to cause any trouble."
She looked at the two of them with a smile, "You are Jiaojiao, right? Come to take over the job today."
"Yes, I am Xu Qianjiao. He is my husband and he sends me to work." Xu Qianjiao greeted him while calmly explaining why the two of them were here together.
Sister Huang looked at the two of them teasingly, "Hahaha, young people, you are so loving. Okay, I'll take you to hand over the work."
"Okay, thank you Sister Huang." Xu Qianjiao looked at Sister Huang gratefully with a smile on her face.
The three of them walked out of the office together. Cheng Jiawen walked to the bicycle and touched Xu Qianjiao's head. "Then I'll go back first. You should hand over your work to Sister Huang."
"Okay, I got it. Be careful on the road." Xu Qianjiao said reluctantly.
Cheng Jiawen nodded with a smile, then looked at Sister Huang, nodded politely to her, and then turned around and left with his bicycle.
"Hahaha, okay, you two young couple are really clingy. Even after walking a distance, you are still watching." Sister Huang couldn't help teasing when she saw that Xu Qianjiao still looked reluctant to leave.
Xu Qianjiao was a little shy after being teased, her face flushed, and she immediately took Sister Huang's hand and said, "Sister Huang, please stop teasing me. I'm already shy."
"Hahaha, you don't look shy at all." Sister Huang looked at her responding to her joke openly, and her favorability towards her instantly soared.
As expected, girls who are generous and open-minded are more popular.
Sister Huang took Xu Qianjiao to hand over the work. The two of them were arm in arm, talking and laughing. The more they talked, the more Sister Huang liked Xu Qianjiao. She patted her hands and said regretfully: "Hey, if you hadn't been married a long time ago, I would have wanted you to be my daughter-in-law. What a good girl."
"Hahaha, Sister Huang, thank you for your love. You are such a good person. It would be a blessing to be your daughter-in-law. There must be many good girls competing for you."
"Hahaha, it comes true for you." Sister Huang said with a smile on her face.
Sister Huang took Xu Qianjiao to the ticket office and said, "Come, you will work here from now on. You will just buy and sell tickets and leave when the time comes. There is nothing else to do."
Xu Qianjiao looked around calmly. It was a bit like a bank in later generations, with rows of windows, ticket sellers sitting inside, and a large blackboard with train numbers and departure times written on it.
Sister Huang took Xu Qianjiao to a window. She smiled and greeted the ticket seller inside, "Xiao Jie."
The young girl sitting inside raised her head when she heard the voice and said, "Sister Huang."
Sister Huang smiled at her and then began to introduce them, "Xiao Jie, this is Xu Qianjiao. She'll be working with you from now on. It's her first day at work today, so please take care of her."
The young girl Liu Fangjie sitting inside silently looked at Xu Qianjiao secretly. After a while, she nodded to Xu Qianjiao in a friendly manner and said, "Hello, my name is Liu Fangjie. You can just call me Xiaojie."
"Hello, my name is Xu Qianjiao, you can just call me Jiaojiao." Xu Qianjiao smiled and greeted her warmly.
The two young women immediately fell in love with each other. They looked at each other and saw the kindness in each other's eyes. Seeing that the two could get along harmoniously, Sister Huang felt relieved. She looked at them with a smile and said, "Okay, I've brought the people here. Xiaojie, you take care of Jiaojiao. I'll be leaving first."
"Okay, don't worry, Sister Huang, I will talk to Jiaojiao." Liu Fangjie said with a smile as she took Xu Qianjiao's hand.
Sister Huang glanced at the two of them, nodded, and turned away.
After Sister Huang left, Liu Fangjie took Xu Qianjiao to the ticket window. There were not many people buying tickets at the moment, so she put a sign at the window indicating that ticket sales were suspended, and then picked up the things on the workstation and introduced them to Xu Qianjiao.
"Jiaojiao, this is the ticket book. The ticket price and train number can be seen here. If someone wants to buy a ticket, just collect the money and give him the ticket." Liu Fangjie carefully introduced their work to Xu Qianjiao.
Then he pointed to the workstation next to him and said, "This is Sister Huang's old workstation. You'll be sitting here from now on. Don't worry, it's your first day at work today. You can ask me anything. We're not too busy at work during normal times. We'll only be a little busy before and after the New Year."
While listening carefully to Liu Fangjie's words, Xu Qianjiao looked around at the people and environment calmly. When everyone saw Sister Huang bringing Xu Qianjiao, they all knew that she was here to take over Sister Huang's shift.
Xu Qianjiao didn't take everyone's casual glances to heart. She turned to look at Liu Fangjie and said gratefully, "Xiaojie, thank you. I really owe everything to you today."
Liu Fangjie waved her hand. "Well, don't be polite. It's just a small matter. It's almost time. Let's go to work. We can chat at noon."
"Okay." Xu Qianjiao sat in front of the window, carefully learning the ticket selling job. The ticket selling job was relatively simple, and she got the hang of it quickly, and she did it quite well.
Seeing this, Liu Fangjie felt relieved, stopped paying attention to her, and focused on her own work.
As noon approached, a faint atmosphere of sleepiness gradually filled the ticket hall. Now there were not many people coming to buy tickets, and everyone's attention began to wander. They glanced at the clock from time to time, looking forward to the arrival of lunch time.
The sound of ticket sales gradually subsided, replaced by occasional low conversations and gentle yawns. Sunlight streamed through the window onto the desk, creating patches of dappled light and shadow that reminded me of the beautiful world outside.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man walked into the ticket office. When everyone saw him, they immediately perked up and stopped talking. He walked over to Xu Qianjiao and asked seriously, "Are you Xu Qianjiao?"
