"Sister-in-law, the captain asked you to attend a meeting. Could it be a reward for you?" Li Tao looked at Ning Jia with curiosity and anticipation.
"Who knows?" Ning Jia gave all the remaining melon seeds to Li Tao, "You eat them, I'll go take a look."
"Okay, sister-in-law, you go quickly. I'll be waiting for your good news." Li Tao said.
Old Mrs. Xu heard the noise in the yard from her room and felt very upset. She obviously sensed that Li Tao and the sixth son's wife had become much closer since Prince Laizi broke off the engagement.
"Xiao Tao!" Old Mrs. Xu shouted, "Don't you have any eyes for work? You just stand around in the yard! Go, go to the back of the house and pick up some wood to chop. We'll make fish stew tonight!"
Li Tao responded reluctantly and said to Ning Jia: "Sixth sister-in-law, I have to go to work. Don't forget to tell me when you come back!"
Ning Jia coughed twice and deliberately raised his voice: "Don't worry, I'll tell you the first time I get back! Oh, I'm so worried and panicked!"
"Why are you so worried? Maybe going to the meeting this time will be a good thing."
Ning Jia glanced at the north room and saw Old Lady Xu peeking out through the crack in the window. She laughed and said, "I'm worried about myself! You said being too good is also a problem! I passed the exam to become an accountant by accident, and I became the director of the women's department by accident again! Oh, I really have a miserable life!"
Li Tao understood the hidden meaning of Ning Jia's words and smiled secretly: "Sixth sister-in-law, I envy you so much!"
"No, no, no, please don't envy me! I envy those who didn't pass the exam and didn't get selected. It saves them a lot of trouble and effort! They feel comfortable."
After Ning Jia finished speaking, he turned around, twisted his waist and went out.
"Bah! You are shameless. You are almost praising yourself to the point of being a flower! Can you give me a grandson? You can't even fart, and you still call yourself beautiful!" Old Mrs. Xu cursed twice.
When she turned around, she saw Lin Xiaoxi with her head down, her face flushed, her hands tightly grasping the edge of her pants, and she looked in a very bad mood.
"Mom, I've embarrassed you. Even Sixth Sister-in-law... scolded me in a roundabout way."
"Don't pay attention to her. Mom knows that it's the issue of the bride price that has affected your performance, so don't take it to heart." Old Mrs. Xu comforted.
At the same time, she also felt very strange: "How could Ning Jia, who can barely recognize a few characters, get a perfect score?"
This is also the problem that Lin Xiaoxi has been unable to figure out.
"Maybe she's just pretending to be ignorant. Actually, she knows everything?" Lin Xiaoxi felt more and more that Ning Jia might be hiding something.
But why doesn't she let herself perform so well?
Okay.
If you want to hide it, hide it for your whole life, but don't show your cleverness halfway.
Old Mrs. Xu didn't want to mention Ning Jia: "Who cares? Let her do whatever she wants. Xiaoxi, don't worry about it. Wait until you get married and live a good life with Li Chuan. This is better than anything else."
"I remember Mom."
“Good boy!”
…
When Ning Jia arrived at the village brigade, he saw a man and a woman, two unfamiliar faces, sitting in the house.
"Let me introduce you. This is Director Wang Fang, the women's director of our community. She is mainly responsible for the women's work in each village brigade. This is Xiao Liu, who cooperates with the director in her work." The team leader gave Ning Jia a brief introduction.
Ning Jia went over and greeted them one by one.
"Xiao Ning, your mother-in-law went to the police station to complain that you abused her." Director Wang said with a smile, "Did you know about this?"
"I know. I'm not abusing her. I'm helping her improve her thinking. Director Wang, I think in order to improve women's ideological awareness, sometimes we need to hold some lectures and classes." Ning Jia didn't want Director Wang to think that she was fighting with her mother-in-law, so she deliberately used her power to do so.
She didn't deny it, she also had some selfish motives.
But, this old woman really needs to raise her awareness that girls are money-losing goods and that a sister-in-law is like a mother and all the work has to be done by one person!
No, ten thousand nos!
"Well said!" Director Wang immediately gave a thumbs up, "Your ideas are very good, and your methods are also very good! I am here to support you!"
"Thank you, Director Wang! With your support, I will go all out and do it in a big way!" Ning Jia said immediately.
If the old woman finds fault with you next time, teach her a lesson!
Don't hesitate to give her a lesson!
"Do a good job!" Director Wang was very satisfied with Ning Jia. "I heard that you and your sister-in-law always quarreled, and I was afraid that you were unreasonable. I originally wanted to test you, but I didn't expect that your mother-in-law's complaint made me see your shining point, so I decided to hire you!"
"Ah?" Ning Jia was really shocked.
If her mother-in-law knew about this, she would be furious!
Ha ha!
"Here, this notebook is funded by the company to recognize outstanding work! Although you have just started working, this idea is still good, so we decided to send this notebook to you to encourage you."
Ning Jia took the notebook and said, "Thank you, Director Wang. I will work hard!"
"Yeah, that's right, young people are full of energy! Next, I want to talk about another thing."
"What's up?"
"About family planning."
When Ning Jia heard this topic, his eyes turned dark and he was shocked.
She is so young, is it really appropriate to talk about this topic now?
Seeing her thoughts, Director Wang smiled and said, "You are already a married woman and are about to have children. What is there to be embarrassed about? The director of women's affairs in Daqingshan Village is still a yellow-haired girl!"
Ning Jia had heard about this matter.
That person was an old girl of about eighteen or nineteen years old.
"We advocate good birth and good upbringing, so a family should not have so many children. Having fewer children will allow you to focus more on your work."
Director Wang talked on and on for a long time, explaining the policy from above to her from beginning to end, and also told her the next work plan.
Ning Jia had only one thing to say after listening to this: We must do the work and raise everyone's awareness!
After hearing this, she also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she was just asked to promote it vigorously, and no compulsory measures were mentioned. It was still encouraged that everyone participate voluntarily.
That would be great.
"Okay, then I will work hard and live up to your trust." Ning Jia said.
"Okay, that's great. Now go back! We have more villages to visit next! We will gather together in a few days to report on our work."
After Director Wang left, it was getting late. Seeing the sun setting, Ning Jia thought about the sweet potatoes roasting on the fire and hurried home.
When she got home, the sweet potatoes had been roasted and were emitting a sweet aroma.
Li Yao handed her one, and seeing her so hot, he couldn't help but smile: "What did you talk about in the meeting just now?"
Ning Jia took a bite of the sweet potato and winked at him: "Guess?"
Li Yao: "When the women's directors hold a meeting, it's nothing more than work related to women."
"Yes, that's right. Can you guess which job it is?"
Li Yao shook his head: "I can't guess."
Ning Jia smiled and said, "Family planning! If I tell your mother about this, she will be furious!"
Li Yao nodded in approval: "You are right, she is obsessed with this. She wants a boy to carry on the Li family's bloodline!"
Ning Jia curled her lips: "What era is this?"
"This is not an easy job. Ning Jia, this is a thankless job..."
Ning Jia tilted her head and glanced at him: "You are worried about me."
Li Yao raised his lips slightly, leaned close to her ear, and whispered softly: "Yes, I am worried about you. Ning Jia, you have to do a job for someone tomorrow, but you have no experience at all, what should you do? Tonight... let's do an experiment and gain some experience?"
