Chapter 437 You are quite good at socializing
From the receiver: [Tan Chen, Dad congratulates you and Ruoting. You two are both amazing. You are the pride of our Tan family and the pride of our country...]
"Dad..." Tan Chen was so suddenly praised by his father that he didn't know how to continue.
[Tan Chen, it's great that you got into Peking University. You can live with your dad in the future.]
"Dad, I plan to go to Beijing when school starts." Tan Chen felt that it was necessary to make things clear in advance. Listening to what his father said, he wished they could move there right away.
[Dad knows that you have so many greenhouses and crops at home that you need to take care of them.]
"That's right, Dad. I plan to arrange all this with Ruoting before going to the capital."
Then, Tan Shaowen asked about the situation of Grandpa Tan and several of his grandchildren before reluctantly hanging up the phone.
After Tan Chen finished the two things he had to do in Fengxian County, he prepared to go to the bus station to wait for the bus back to town.
When passing by the textile factory, he heard someone calling him.
"Is that Comrade Tan Chen up ahead?"
Tan Chen turned around and saw that it was Director Li.
Director Li took a few quick steps and came to Tan Chen. "Comrade Tan Chen, I've read today's Zhuang City Daily. Congratulations to you and Comrade Shang Ruoting."
Tan Chen knew without thinking that the congratulations to him and his wife must be related to the college entrance examination.
"Thank you, Director Li."
Director Li pointed to the mailroom of the textile factory and said, "Comrade Tan Chen, can I spare you a moment?"
Tan Chen nodded and said, "Okay." After that, he followed Director Li into the mail room.
Director Li did not beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.
"Comrade Tan Chen, I wonder if your family has planted milk strawberries recently?
Tomorrow is New Year's Day. If possible, I would like to provide some benefits to the workers.
I originally wanted to go to Sihe Village to inquire about it yesterday, but a friend from the Education Bureau told me that our Beihe Province has a national college entrance examination champion named Shang Ruoting, and a 21st place winner named Tan Chen. The probability of you having the same name is very small, so I guessed that it is most likely you and your husband.
I thought you guys were busy with the college entrance exams and might not have time to plant strawberries, so I didn't go to Sihe Village. I didn't expect to run into you today."
In fact, Director Li didn’t know that even if Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen were very busy, it would not delay the planting. After all, in addition to the hired people, there was also Grandpa Tan at home.
The old man now likes to take care of the crops in the greenhouse. How could there not be delicious big strawberries?
However, in recent times, all the strawberries produced in the greenhouse have been wholesaled to Nanjie Food Store.
Tan Chen thought about it. After all, Director Li was the first big customer of his strawberries. Since she had asked for it, he had to meet her request no matter what.
"I have some strawberries that have recently ripened at home, about two thousand or so. If Director Li wants to buy some, you can go get them."
Director Li originally asked with the attitude of giving it a try, but he didn't expect that there were so many strawberries at Tan Chen's house.
"Great, our textile factory will buy all of your 2,000 strawberries.
I will immediately arrange a car to go to your house so that we can distribute the money to everyone before New Year's Day."
This way, Tan Chen didn't have to wait for the bus back to town and could directly take the car arranged by Director Li back to Sihe Village.
When Mr. Tan heard that the visitor was there to buy strawberries, he took the initiative to arrange for them to be picked in the greenhouse.
Seeing that his grandfather was very interested in this, Tan Chen did not interfere and let the old man indulge in picking.
The sale of strawberries this time earned Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen more than 1,000 yuan.
Old Mrs. Shang and Jiang Ping took great care of Shang Ruoting's confinement. They did everything according to the old rules. She was not allowed to eat raw food or watch TV.
I was afraid that her eyes would be damaged during the confinement period.
Shang Ruoting usually listens to her elders and knows that they are all for her own good.
But today is different. She and Tan Chen got excellent results in the college entrance examination, and Tan Chen also accepted interviews from TV stations and newspapers.
Their news has been published in newspapers during the day, and I believe that their content will also be included in the news on TV in the evening.
Therefore, under her strong request, Mrs. Shang and Jiang Ping reluctantly agreed to let her watch the news for only a while.
Sure enough, Tan Chen appeared in the news broadcast by the provincial TV station in the evening.
He appeared so calm and composed in front of the reporters, which is something most people cannot do.
There will be more knowledge waiting for us to learn in the future. I am looking forward to such a life...
This was followed by a burst of warm applause.
Shang Ruoting watched Tan Chen talking to reporters and felt proud that she had married such an outstanding man.
"I didn't expect you to be so good at socializing."
