"Second sister, this is my pocket money that I saved. Ten dollars and thirty-five cents. I'm giving it all to you. Keep it for your future use."
Ning Shaolan returned to his little room, stepped on a stool, took down the old biscuit box on top of the wardrobe, and dug out a small wallet made of rags from it.
"No, no, you can keep it. I can't take your money."
Ning Shaolan is three years younger than her, how could she have the nerve to ask for him!
"It's hard work in the countryside, so bringing more will definitely be useful. But I'm lending it to you, so you can return it to me when you come back later."
"Okay, thank you Xiaolan." Ning Xi took the cloth bag filled with heartfelt words.
My cousin is better than my biological mother!
Liu Chunmei was busy packing a quilt and some useful things for Ning Xi. She also put in a bag of saved brown sugar and a small bag of dried ginger wrapped in newspaper.
"This old ginger is good stuff. If you have a headache or a fever, just pinch a small handful and soak it in brown sugar water. Got it?"
"Ding-ling-ling~"
Ning Zhisong rode his bicycle back home, parked it in the yard and went in.
He is very tall, has a pair of double eyebrows, a crew cut, and works in the high temperature environment of the kitchen all year round. His exposed skin is dark red and he has a slightly hunchbacked appearance.
He really looks a bit like the red-faced Guan Erye.
"Are you here?" He was stunned when he saw Ning Xi when he walked in, and nodded at her.
"Uncle..." Ning Xi quickly stood up and called for help.
"Dad! My second sister has to go to the countryside..." Ning Shaolan spoke concisely and focused on the key points to tell her father.
Ning Zhisong listened to Ning Shaolan's story silently. The expression on his face became more and more solemn. His brows were furrowed to form the Chinese character "川" (Chuan) between his eyebrows, making him look even more ferocious.
After listening to this, he made up his mind, stood up, went back to his room and got a package.
"Let's go!" After looking at Ning Xi, he walked out with his head down.
"Go ahead, your uncle is just that kind of person." Liu Chunmei saw Ning Xi still staring blankly, so she pushed her out the door.
Uncle Ning had already pushed his bicycle to the door. When he saw Ning Xi coming out, he took a step forward with his long legs and climbed onto his 28-inch bicycle.
This body has been malnourished for a long time, so naturally it is not tall. When Ning Xi entered the door, she measured with her hands and estimated that it was only a little over 1.5 meters tall.
Both Liu Chunmei and Ning Shaolan are much taller than her.
"Uncle, are we going to find the factory manager now?" Ning Xi sat on the left seat. Uncle Ning pushed the pedal hard and the car drove out quickly.
"I don't have to go to work tomorrow, so we should get things done as soon as possible." Ning Zhisong said briefly. He was a quiet person.
Most of the time I spend in the kitchen studying recipes and practicing my cooking skills.
"Oh, I didn't think of this. Uncle is very thoughtful." Ning Xi didn't forget to flatter him.
Now all departments have implemented a "small week", working six days a week and having weekends off. If she goes to the factory tomorrow, she may not be able to find the factory director.
Ning Zhisong: “Yeah.”
The car pedaled fast, a cool breeze blew, and the atmosphere was awkwardly stagnant.
After a long while, Ning Zhisong added: "You are still young, it is normal for you not to think things through."
Ning Xi:......
A twenty-year-old kid?
An hour later, Ning Zhisong stopped the car outside the gate of a house. This building was a rare two-story residential building. The outside of the door was kept clean and tidy. It was obvious that it was not an ordinary family's.
The lights were still on inside at this moment.
Ning Zhisong took down the cloth bag hanging on the handlebars, and Ning Xi saw that there were two packs of cigarettes and two cans of something that should be like sauce inside.
"Who is it?" A boy who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old and dressed very smartly ran to open the door.
"Hello, is Director Zhu at home?" Ning Xi specifically asked Liu Chunmei. Deputy Director Zhu Liangcai, who had given her the job, has been promoted to director.
"My dad is at home, come in." The boy opened the door for the two of them.
"Xiaofeng, who is that?" Zhu Liangcai was listening to the radio in the room. When he saw someone coming, he quickly turned down the volume.
"Dad, I'm looking for you." The boy led them in and diligently poured water for them.
"Oh? It's you? Ning Zhibai's elder brother Ning Zhisong? Right?" Uncle Ning's appearance was so distinctive that Zhu Liangcai recognized him at a glance.
"Hello Uncle Zhu, I am Ning Xi, the daughter of Ning Zhibai." Ning Xi waited for the elders to greet her before quickly introducing herself.
"Sit down, sit down! I guessed it. You came to see me about work, right? I already greeted your stepfather, Lin Yongjun, the week before last."
Zhu Liangcai and Ning Zhibai were classmates in high school and good friends. Naturally, they paid close attention to their good brother's only offspring.
Ning Xi suddenly realized!
No wonder Lin Yongjun acted so quickly. It turned out that he was under pressure from the factory director.
It's really laughable.
However, this matter itself is related to the factory director, so it is easier to handle.
Ning Xi twisted the little flesh on her thigh hard, and her eyes immediately turned red with pain.
Her voice trembled slightly. "Uncle Zhu, my stepfather secretly signed me up to go to the countryside in Province A. I'm not going to get this job..."
"What?"
Zhu Liangcai was so startled that he stood up. The little girl in front of him lowered her head, and her yellow hair looked like straw in the dim light.
The clothes on his body were covered with patches of various sizes, and the sleeves looked a little short, revealing a thin arm.
The arms of the eldest grandson next door are thicker than this!
"What a great Lin Yongjun! He's really, really good!" Zhu Liangcai gritted his teeth, his eyes looking as if he wanted to eat Lin Yongjun alive.
Lin Yongjun usually behaves very well. If you meet him at the factory, he often tries to get close to him under the pretext of being Ning Xi.
Zhu Liangcai went to see Ning Xi a few years after Ning Zhibai passed away. At that time, she was living in her uncle's house and seemed pretty well.
Later, the situation changed and he was too busy to handle everything. He only knew that Ning Xi was taken home.
Fortunately, he gave Ning Zhibai advice everywhere because of him. Many people in the factory knew that Lin Yongjun was his man. He did not show any favoritism to him on the surface, but he received a lot of benefits in secret.
"Greed is insatiable!" Zhu Liangcai slapped his head hard with a headache. It seemed that Lin Yongjun was reluctant to return the job to Ning Xi, so he took action.
"Niece, I'm sorry. If you have any request, I will definitely do it for you!" Zhu Liangcai promised.
Even if he couldn't get the person back by going to the countryside, he would try his best.
Ning Xi looked at Zhu Liangcai with a pair of big eyes filled with sincerity: "Uncle, I don't blame you. I blame some people for being so cruel and ruthless that they deceive their superiors and subordinates."
She had a skinny face and deep eye sockets, which made Zhu Liangcai feel even more regretful. He was thinking about how to deal with Lin Yongjun.
"It's just that this job was originally my dad's, and the factory leader was kind enough to leave it to me, but now..."
Zhu Liangcai was the factory director, so how could he not understand what she meant? He thought to himself that this girl was not stupid.
"Do you have any ideas? Uncle will definitely support you!"
"Uncle Liangcai, I'm planning to sell this job without knowing it. Can you help me? I'm going to the countryside in three days. I have no money, no food, and no quilt..."
