That day, before leaving get off work, the office phone rang.
Guan Wenru picked up the phone, "Hello, this is Su Nan Feed Factory, the factory manager's office."
The person on the other end of the phone immediately smiled and said, "Hello, is this Director Guan Wenru? This is the personnel department of the Capital First Textile Factory."
Guan Wenru realized something and subconsciously sat up straight. "I am."
The person on the other end of the phone still had a smile on their face, "Director Guan, hello! I'd like to inform you that we have approved Comrade Bai Yun's job transfer application!"
Her length of service has been verified. According to factory regulations, she will be allocated a one-bedroom dormitory room. She can pick up the key when she arrives. When would be a convenient time for her to come and complete the onboarding process?
Upon hearing the news, Guan Wenru smiled and said, "That's wonderful! Thank you! I'll arrange for her to go as soon as possible. She'll definitely arrive by the end of next week!"
"Alright, then we'll wait for Comrade Baiyun here. Goodbye, Director Guan."
Guan Wenru stood up. "Goodbye, thank you for your help!"
After hanging up the phone, Guan Wenru couldn't contain her joy and quickly walked to the door of the finance office.
Guan Wenru: "Xiaoyun! Come out here for a second!"
The people in the finance office all looked over, and Guan Wenru smiled slightly at them.
Baiyun came out when she heard the noise, holding an account book in her hand. "Sister, what's wrong? It's almost time to go home and check the accounts."
Guan Wenru smiled and took her hand, lowering her voice slightly, "I just received a call from the Capital No. 1 Textile Factory! Your transfer has been approved! They've even assigned you a dormitory, a one-bedroom apartment! It's calculated based on your length of service here!"
Bai Yun froze, the ledger in her hand fell to the ground with a thud, her eyes instantly reddened, and her voice trembled, "Really...really? Sister! It's really approved?!"
She thought it would take a month or two, but it was approved so quickly.
Seeing her like this, Guan Wenru smiled, bent down to pick up the ledger, and stuffed it into her hand. "Of course it's true! Would I, as your older sister, lie to you? Hurry up and hand over your work to Xiao Zhang and the others. You must leave for the capital to report by next week at the latest!"
Bai Yun burst into tears and hugged Guan Wenru tightly. "Sister! Thank you! Thank you so much! If it weren't for you..."
She really didn't know what to do!
Guan Wenru chuckled and patted her back. "Silly girl! You're my sister, who else would I help if not you? Alright, alright, stop crying. Quickly compose yourself and get on with the handover of your work."
I'll start processing your paperwork now. Once you've completed the handover and the letters of introduction are ready, you can leave.
Bai Yun nodded vigorously, wiping away her tears, laughing and crying at the same time, "Yes! I'll go hand over the duties right away! Right away!"
She has feelings for this place, but... right now she wants to be with Xi Mufan and have their child together.
......
Wait for the get off work bell to ring.
Guan Wenru, Bai Yun, Hua Xiaoyu, and several other military dependents pushed their bicycles out of the factory gate, chatting and laughing, and rode together towards the family compound.
On the way, Guan Wenru shared with them the news that Baiyun was going to the Capital No. 1 Textile Factory.
When the military families found out, they were all happy for Baiyun.
Hua Xiaoyu rode up to Bai Yun and patted her arm. "Xiao Yun, I'm so happy for you! You're going to the capital now, you'll be a big city person! Don't forget your sisters-in-law from Sunan after you've seen the world!"
Other military dependents couldn't help but chime in, "Exactly! Write to us later and tell us what the capital is really like!"
Baiyun's face beamed with happiness and anticipation. "How could I forget! My sisters-in-law are so good to me, I'll definitely write back often! I'll also come back to visit everyone when I have the chance!"
Guan Wenru smiled and said, "When you go there, you'll be in a new place and won't know anyone. It will take you a while to adjust. Anyway, if you need any help or don't understand anything, just call back."
The group rode their bikes, chatting as they went, and soon arrived at the gate of the military compound.
Before they even got close, they heard a sharp female voice crying and cursing, and an old man angrily shouting, coming from the doorway.
Several family members were gathered around watching the commotion.
Aunt Wan's voice trembled with rage as she shouted, "Gu Siyu! You shameless slut! How dare you come back?! Get out of here! Get far away from us! The Wan family doesn't welcome you!"
Gu Siyu cried out, her voice shrill, "Mom! Mom, I was wrong! I was young and ignorant before! Please forgive me this time!"
I am, after all, Wan Tao's lawfully wedded wife! You can't just watch us starve to death out there!
Aunt Wan trembled with anger. "Pah! Who's your mother! Don't call me mother! It disgusts me! When you ran away with the money, why didn't you think about being Wan Tao's wife?"
When you were cursing my son and insulting my grandson, did you ever think about the fact that you're Wan Tao's wife? Now that you're down on your luck, you remember you're Wan Tao's wife? Get out of here!
Guan Wenru and the others stopped their bicycles, looked at each other, and frowned.
Hua Xiaoyu spat under her breath, "That Gu Siyu is like a persistent ghost! She even dares to come and bother Aunt Wan!"
Bai Yun frowned, "Look how angry Aunt Wan is! She can barely stand!"
Aunt Wan was so angry that her face turned ashen, and her body was indeed trembling slightly.
Gu Siyu shamelessly knelt on the ground, hugging Aunt Wan's legs and wailing. The two children were so frightened that they hid behind her and cried loudly.
Aunt Wan quickly kicked her away.
Several elderly military families nearby wanted to offer advice but didn't know where to begin. The sentry was also at a loss. Some of them had already gone to find Wan Tao.
Guan Wenru's face darkened, and he said to Bai Yun and Hua Xiaoyu, "Let's go and see. We can't let her bully Aunt Wan like this."
