Chapter 12 Finding the Treasure



"How can you do this? If you take over someone else's job, you have to return your position to the factory, otherwise you will have two positions left." Party Secretary Gao Qiming looked displeased.

Wang Cuiping thought, why couldn't this be possible? One of these positions was bought with her real money, and the other was passed down from her husband, so why couldn't this be possible?

Hu Guangrong was watching from the side and had already noticed Zhu Liangcai's thoughts, so he quickly tried to smooth things over:

"Secretary, forget it. Their family situation is really bad. Her husband died in the previous accident..."

Although Zhu Liangcai is the factory director, the party secretary is higher than him. Both of them are the highest management of the factory, so it is difficult for him to directly refute Secretary Gao.

Now that someone had taken the lead, he seemed more normal when he spoke again:

"You really have a lot to do! Hurry up and get it done. Secretary Gao and his colleagues have to go on a business trip this afternoon. We've used our rest time this morning to help you."

Ning Xi also said: "Secretary Gao is considerate of the people. He is not only a good secretary to the factory workers, but also a good leader and cadre for us. Thank you, Uncle Secretary, for running around for our personal affairs so early in the morning!"

Wang Cuiping: "That's right, Secretary Gao is the most popular leader in the factory."

Gao Qiming was being flattered, and it was not easy for him to continue to harp on it in front of his colleagues, so he simply ignored it and looked at Zhu Liangcai: "This matter is yours to handle, so you can handle it as you wish."

"Hey, okay, why don't you thank the secretary quickly!" Zhu Liangcai took out the official seal and let this man named Wang Tiezhu take over Liu Jianjun's job first, and then Liu Jianjun would take over Ning Xi's job.

As for Ning Xi, this job originally belonged to her. When Lin Yongjun wanted to come to work in the factory, Zhu Liangcai specifically asked him to sign a note to prove that Ning Xi could get her job back immediately after she became an adult.

The other leaders all agreed at that time.

"Okay, it's done." Zhu Liangcai had already informed Lin Yongjun to let Ning Xi come to work, so the materials had already been found and now they just needed to be stamped.

Wang Cuiping watched her son and Ning Xi sign the document, took out a handkerchief from her pocket, and handed the neatly folded bills inside to Ning Xi.

"It's 600 yuan in total. The cloth and food coupons are all here. Please count them."

Ning Xi took it and counted it in front of everyone. There was no trust between her and Wang Cuiping, so there was no need for any polite words like "I believe you".

Wang Cuiping also thought so. It would be better to settle the payment in person to avoid confusion later.

"That's right, thank you all for your hard work." Ning Xi put the money away and thanked the factory leaders again.

Today is a holiday, and it is only natural for her to say thank you for helping others.

After the work was done, all the leaders went back to their homes. Zhu Liangcai was walking behind. When he saw that the others had walked away for a distance, he called Ning Xi and handed her an envelope.

Ning Xi didn't answer and looked at him puzzledly, "Uncle Liangcai, what is this?"

"Ning girl, you can call me uncle. To be honest, your father took care of me a lot in my studies before, otherwise I would not have been able to get into university.

But I haven't paid much attention to you over the years, and I feel guilty about that. Now that I'm going to the countryside, I can't help you much, so these two food coupons are just a small token of my appreciation."

At the beginning, she had a good relationship with Ning Xi's father, Ning Zhibai. Ning Zhibai studied hard, and she urged him to study hard. Later, he was admitted to university, but Ning Zhibai chose to join the army.

However, he became the factory director not only because of his academic qualifications, but also because of his grandfather's relationship. But this did not prevent him from thanking Ning Zhibai.

Especially in the past few years when the college entrance examination was cancelled, he has reaped the benefits of a high level of education.

"Uncle Liangcai, you've taken good care of me by helping me with my job. I can't ask for anything else from you."

People are forgotten when they are gone. Ning Xi's father has been dead for so many years, but the other party is still willing to help her. She is very grateful.

Zhu Liangcai stubbornly stuffed the envelope into her hand and whispered:

"Here! Going to the countryside isn't easy work. If possible, do as little work as possible, go to the brigade secretary and stretch your legs. Be more flexible, otherwise your body will break down."

Ning Xi didn't want to take it, but Zhu Liangcai stuffed the envelope into her hand, stepped onto his bicycle in two steps, and rode away quickly.

"Hold on tight!" Uncle Ning saw that the leaders had all left, and he also rode his bicycle towards the Lin family.

"Why are you back?" Ning Zhisong asked puzzledly.

Why not just go to his house? Why come back and suffer?

Ning Xi sat in the back, holding onto the seat, and told Uncle Ning in detail what happened last night.

"Hahaha, uncle, you don't know how ugly their faces are. They want to hit me but they don't dare to do it..."

"Are you not hurt?" Ning Zhisong didn't care about the couple.

Ning Xi felt warm in her heart. This uncle didn't talk much, but he still cared about his niece. "It's okay, uncle. I'm smart!"

"Yeah." Ning Zhisong nodded. "It's good like this now. If you have any difficulties, ask your uncle to help you."

When Ning Xi returned home, the house was still empty. The three people had gone out early in the morning and had not returned yet.

"Gurgle~"

She hadn't eaten since morning, so she simply broke the lock of the cupboard, scooped a few spoonfuls of flour, beat three eggs into it, added water and salt, and baked a pancake for herself.

After filling her stomach and locking the door from the inside, she rummaged through the storage room where her former owner lived and found a box from under the mess of sundries.

This box is an important prop in the original novel.

After the male protagonist retired and returned home, he found a partner and prepared to get married, so he planned to clean up the house. The utility room was originally separated from the west room, and he planned to merge them to form a new house.
