Chapter 500: Changes Brought by Promotion
After learning that her younger brother and sister-in-law had given birth to a child, Lin Yuzhu and others also mailed gifts to them, such as milk powder.
But even these high-end milk powders are enough for Lin's mother and outsiders to show off.
Not to mention that after the news of Lin Yuzhu's promotion to director of the Construction Bureau was passed on, Lin's mother yelled out as soon as she confirmed it.
Now, everyone in the neighborhood knew that the daughter of the Lin family had become a high-ranking official in the capital.
As soon as the news spread, those families who had previously refused to marry into the Lin family regretted it.
Seeing how well Guan Shengnan is living in the Lin family now, they are even more envious, especially when they know that the girls in the Lin family are all filial and send things to her from time to time.
I heard that those milk powder and baby bottles can only be bought at the Friendship Store, and they have never seen them before.
This is really amazing!
But it's too late to regret now. These people can only try their best to curry favor with the Lin family and praise Lin's mother.
But when others asked her to do something, she thought about the fact that Guan Shengnan was the one who had the final say in the family, and she couldn't make a decision herself, so she could only awkwardly change the subject.
Gradually, everyone knew what her situation was. They guessed that Lin's mother's words did not count at home, so they stopped trying to curry favor with her, which reduced Lin's mother's sense of accomplishment after showing off.
However, Lin Yuzhu didn't know all this. Even if she knew, she would still be glad that she had married such a daughter-in-law to Lin Jiabao, who managed the Lin family so well and saved her a lot of worries.
Of course, her promotion not only made the Lin family far away in the northwest envied, but also the families of her sisters benefited from it.
After my second brother-in-law came to work these days, many leaders became more enthusiastic when talking to him.
He guessed that it might be Lin Yuzhu's fault.
After returning home, she said to her second sister, "Your third sister is really different. I never knew she was so amazing!"
The second sister was also moved when she heard this. Let alone you, I have lived with her for almost 20 years and I didn’t notice it…
After Lin Yuzhu got promoted, apart from some influence on the people around her, she herself did not have much influence.
At present, she has been able to adapt to this position. Although she is very happy about the promotion, the only thing that makes her feel a little regretful is that she is not as free in dressing herself.
At present, government officials at her level are all quite old, and they have meetings every few days. Lin Yuzhu observed carefully and found that she was the youngest among them.
In order to fit in, she usually doesn't dress too fancy or look young.
How should I put it? Nowadays, people have a lot more freedom in how they dress and are no longer dominated by simplicity as before. The simpler the better.
Nowadays, people wear clothes in brighter colors and patches are rarely seen.
However, the attire of these cadres is still very simple, all of them are cadre uniforms or Zhongshan suits.
Lin Yuzhu has been dressing like this since she got promoted, which makes her look a lot more mature.
When she went shopping some time ago, she saw some clothes imported from the south. They were so beautiful that she couldn't resist and bought a few tweed coats. Now they are not suitable to wear them.
Otherwise it would seem too unique.
Not only that, by the time summer comes, those dresses and the like will probably be difficult to wear to work.
Although it was a bit of a pity, she could accept it. After all, she was a state official now, and her every word and action represented the country. She could not act according to her own preferences.
It seems that the national conditions have always been like this, even in later generations. Although people have always advocated freedom of clothing after the country has developed, if any leading cadre wears a branded outfit or dresses coolly, he will still be talked about.
This is even more so at this time, so she still does not challenge the secular world.
Fortunately, there are still holidays, so she can dress up however she wants. But when she is at work, she should just follow the crowd.
