Want to press down
We held the annual meeting this morning, and in the afternoon each department explained their arrangements for the Spring Festival holiday.
For example, in the production workshop, the only days that we have holidays are New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. The rest of the time, overtime work is voluntary.
Except for those who are not from Rong City, basically everyone has signed up for overtime. A small part of the reason is that the factory is currently facing heavy production tasks, and the rest of the reason is that the overtime pay is high.
After the meetings of various departments, they started cleaning up both companies. Then, while we were busy, someone in the office started talking about the fact that the company had two new cars that day.
"It's the same car as the boss's, but no one else has come to discuss cooperation. Did Director Geng and Director Gao buy the car?"
"I'm sure they haven't bought it yet."
A few days ago, when she went to Zong Shifu Restaurant for dinner, she happened to meet two factory managers having dinner together. She heard that the two factory managers said they would go to look at cars after the Chinese New Year.
You mean the future boss lady? That’s not right. The future boss’s wife always comes in her boss’s car, and he can’t drive two cars by himself!
Just when I was wondering, I saw Director Geng's assistant coming over to ask for information, and someone asked.
"Oh, those two new cars, the boss gave them to the two factory managers."
Everyone almost couldn't find their own voice.
A gift from the boss? New car? Santana?
"Is this what the boss said this morning? The gifts for the two factory managers were prepared separately? Those two cars?"
"hiss......"
"If that's the case, I'll have the motivation to strive to become the factory manager."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was pulled back from their shock. Everyone rolled their eyes, "If you say that, who doesn't have motivation? I think you are crazy during the day!"
"Hey... I noticed that the people in our department are always going crazy. Who started this?"
The "veterans" looked at each other. I found that this word is used more frequently in private within the department.
If we were to ask who brought it all together, it would have to be the boss.
But everyone tacitly protects the boss's image without saying anything.
After finishing the company's annual meeting, Chen Jin followed to attend Shen Baichuan's company's annual meeting the next day.
Their company's annual meeting was actually held in a hotel outside, which immediately raised the level of the event by several degrees.
It feels like a local boss treating his employees to a meal during the Chinese New Year.
"Why do I feel that Assistant Yu is being particularly attentive to me today? Am I overthinking?"
Shen Baichuan smiled and said, "You didn't think much about it. Assistant Yu was in contact with Director Geng. He probably went to Director Geng to ask about your company's annual meeting. Director Geng might have mentioned the new car he just received."
"Then you didn't prepare a new car for Assistant Yu. He must be disappointed."
Assistant Yu was not disappointed at all.
Not this year, but probably next year.
I hope my boss and future boss lady can learn more. Look at the future boss lady, she is really generous!
"Assistant Yu, what are you laughing at?"
"nothing."
I just hope that the boss will get married sooner. In the future, whenever the boss’s wife’s company offers some benefits, maybe she can include Baichuan Technology as well.
It’s not that he can’t buy himself a car with his high salary, but the one given by his boss is different. It sounds better than the one he bought himself.
When he was on the phone, he could hear a hint of bragging in Director Geng's tone!
Only after the two companies’ annual meetings were over could they finally take a break.
If you need to buy New Year’s goods or something later, just follow my third uncle and aunt.
In fact, they could just be lazy and let someone else do it, but they still think it’s better to do it themselves.
It's also fun to go to the market and squeeze in meat patties.
"We didn't go to Hong Kong during the winter break. What did grandpa say?"
"Let's not go there for the time being. After returning, they will come back. Ms. Shen came to take care of the ancestral property here last time. There was my grandfather's ancestral house in it. It is being renovated now. My grandparents will come back in the future."
Chen Jin nodded.
The older generation is more concerned about returning to one’s roots, which is understandable. But I think I will stay in Hong Kong for a few more years, after all, most of my relatives and friends are there.
Grandpa Shen Baichuan didn't think of inviting them to celebrate the New Year over there, but Old Man Cheng thought of inviting Shen Baichuan and Chen Jin to celebrate the New Year together.
When Shen Baichuan received the call, Chen Jin was right next to her, so she pulled her over to listen together.
"You and Xiao Chen spent the New Year at her home last year, so come over this year. You and Xiao Chen have been dating for a year or two, so bring her over to meet other relatives and friends of the family. After the New Year, you and Xiao Chen can discuss when the two families can meet to discuss your marriage..."
If it weren’t for the fact that Old Man Cheng coughed every time he said a sentence or two, Shen Baichuan would have interrupted him long ago.
After he finished speaking, he said, "You can live longer if you worry less."
"Don't worry about what happens between me and Chen Jin. The next time Ms. Shen returns to China, she will naturally arrange for the two families to have dinner together."
Old Man Cheng snorted in dissatisfaction. From the sound of this, it seems that he is going to leave the Cheng family alone and not ask the Cheng family to get involved?
What an ungrateful little bastard! He was thinking about sharing some things with him, but now that he has grown stronger, he ignores him?
"You haven't even gotten married yet, so why are you going to other people's homes to eat New Year's Eve meals every day?"
Chen Jin frowned, snatched the phone and said, "Hello? Grandpa Cheng? Yes, I'm Chen Jin. Oh, New Year's dinner? No problem, our family doesn't lack him for a meal. Last year, he went to our ancestral hall to burn incense. Our ancestors recognized him. My family won't think too much of it."
"What's the big deal! It's just a New Year's greeting. You have many grandchildren. I heard from Shen Baichuan that there are still some who haven't been recognized outside. You are old, how can you worry so much? So I said that Shen Baichuan shouldn't go to cheer you up."
"Yes, yes, yes. His mouth is so annoying that it might make people faint. It's okay! We are not afraid. Everyone in our family is good at talking."
"Yes, yes, just stop worrying about it. Your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings."
"Okay, okay, I'll come visit you with Shen Baichuan next time when I'm free. Yeah, bye."
The smile on Chen Jin's face disappeared, and he poked his finger and hung up the phone.
"This old man talks too much!" Chen Jin threw his phone aside and continued to lean on Shen Baichuan to watch TV.
“Shen Baichuan, hand me the remote control…well… huh…you don’t have to kiss me so hard.”
Chen Jin touched his lips and glared at him, "We still have to visit Professor Song and Professor Kong later!"
"You said you would go in the afternoon."
"Isn't it already afternoon?!"
"It doesn't count if you haven't woken up from your nap yet. Stop reading and go to bed." Otherwise, when it's around five in the afternoon, he'll say that he's sleepy, doesn't want to go out at night, and wants to just eat something at home.
Chen Jin hesitated for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Do you want to go upstairs with me and sleep for a while?"
Shen Baichuan looked at her suddenly, and after staring at her for a long time, Shen Baichuan's Adam's apple rolled, and he looked away, saying, "How about another day."
Chen Jin was a little embarrassed at first, but Shen Baichuan’s ears were so red that she didn’t feel embarrassed anymore.
In everything, when others are short-tempered, she is long-tempered.
"You're not shy, are you? What are you thinking about? It's just sleeping, I didn't ask you to do anything else."
Shen Baichuan looked at her in shock…she really dared to say that! But he knew that she only knew how to talk for pleasure.
It was true that she told him to go upstairs and sleep, but if he really wanted to do anything, he might be warned by her loudspeaker.
“You sleep by yourself.” Shen Baichuan stared at her meaningfully and said, “I don’t need you to remind me when we get married.”
Chen Jin’s heart was already beating like a drum, dong dong dong. With a nonchalant look on his face, he said, "Okay, I'll go upstairs and sleep by myself."
I walked so fast upstairs that my slippers fell off, so I picked them up and put them on while going upstairs.
Shen Baichuan leaned back heavily and let out a long sigh. Then he met the eyes of the big orange on the carpet.
Why did he feel that Daju was glaring at him?
After returning to the room, Chen Jin fell directly on the bed, and the edges of his ears that were exposed from his thick long hair were also flushed.
He sighed softly and muttered, "So old-fashioned! I listened to Yang Qian and delayed getting married for a few years... Humph!"
But she actually wanted to push Shen Baichuan down on her bed…Oh my God, she really became a bad person after becoming a rich woman.
After feeling guilty for less than three seconds, Chen Jin comforted himself: It can’t be said that I have learned bad things. I didn’t even think of knocking down the person outside!
Chen Jin only thought for a few minutes, then rolled up in the quilt and fell asleep. Shen Baichuan downstairs didn't feel so good. He always felt like a ball of fire was jumping everywhere. He stared at the direction of the stairs with gritted teeth, forcing himself to calm down.
When Chen Jin woke up and went downstairs, he was full of energy and began to prepare to send New Year gifts to the homes of several professors with whom he had a good relationship. All he said was calling for Shen Baichuan to help.
"Didn't you sleep well at noon?" Chen Jin said without waiting for his answer: "I originally wanted to use the room on the first floor as a tea room, but later I thought it was unnecessary, so I kept it empty. I'll decorate the room inside another day, and you can sleep there in the future. I'll pick a bed another day... Don't worry, I won't sneak in."
"Chen, Jin!" Shen Baichuan felt that he was completely controlled by her.
He took a deep breath and said, "You can go anywhere you want after we get married."
Chen Jin smiled and made a gesture of sewing his mouth shut, saying, "Don't dawdle, let's get out of here."
"Chen Jin."
"What?" Chen Jin turned his head and saw that Shen Baichuan had a very serious expression.
You blinked and turned to look at him, "You say."
Meeting her clear eyes, Shen Baichuan could no longer be serious. He took her hand, rubbed his thumb on the back of her hand, and suddenly said, "My dad and my stepmother had a child when they were dating before."
The atmosphere was originally quite ambiguous, but Shen Baichuan suddenly revealed some gossip. Chen Jin held his hand with his backhand and asked curiously, "Then what? I thought you only had Cheng Yanxi as your cheap brother."
"They only found out about the pregnancy after they separated. At that time, my father and Ms. Shen were married. The child was given to Cheng Yanxi's uncle to raise, and he still hasn't acknowledged her."
"They won't recognize you back?"
"I'm not sure, but I think she's a girl, so the old man doesn't care and won't allow her to be recognized. I guess she doesn't really want to come back. She's settled abroad. I saw her twice when I was studying abroad."
"You were right before. Your father is really good at pretending. Just like Liu Shisheng."
They say all nice things, but in reality they always put their own interests first.
That's going too far.
Shen Baichuan almost forgot the point, so he turned back and said softly:
"So, I think, out of responsibility for you, me, and our future family, some things can wait until after we get married."
Chen Jin really couldn't bear it this time and his face turned red all of a sudden.
"If you want...well, we can get married sooner."
As soon as these words came out, Chen Jin's rationality returned to his mind. But he was still a little embarrassed, so he scratched his face and told the truth: "I didn't think of anything else, I just wanted to try what it feels like to push you down on the bed."
Oh! She is over 24 years old, so it is normal for her to be curious and impulsive sometimes! She is not a Buddhist monk or nun, so it is normal for her to have such thoughts.
Oh, it may also be because I was chatting privately with Yang Qian and Lin Xinran a few days ago, and we talked about some topics that are not easy to talk about outside, so I was quite curious.
Sometimes when she hugged Chen Baichuan, she often pretended to touch his belly casually. I guess he had discovered it a long time ago, but he just didn't expose her.
She said it so bluntly, but Shen Baichuan didn't know how to respond.
The room was quiet for a long time, and Shen Baichuan said, “It would be great if there was still a crime of hooliganism now.”
Chen Jin was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what he meant. Hey! Do you think you can arrest her and marry her just because she is charged with hooliganism? dream!
Chen Jin changed the subject and said, "Zhuo Jiyu asked Yang Qian to tell me that it is unlucky to get married this year."
“Then next year will be auspicious?”
"That should be it." Chen Jin turned around to pick up the gift box and said, "Oh, I've been dawdling for another ten minutes. If I don't go over now, they'll be out soon."
Shen Baichuan followed behind and asked, “Which month is more auspicious next year?”
"It's still early. We'll figure it out next year."
"You have the will but not the courage."
“Yes, I am.” Chen Jin admitted generously, completely blocking Shen Baichuan’s words.
The two of them went to deliver New Year gifts to several professors' homes. They talked about their recent situations, especially Chen Jin's company. Afterwards, they were inevitably asked when they planned to get married.
"The work has just started, so I'm thinking about waiting and seeing."
Shen Baichuan echoed, “Yes, now we still have to focus on work.”
"Work doesn't have to interfere with starting a family." The professors had a lot of great advice, and the two of them nodded in agreement, but they didn't broach the subject of marriage.
However, after giving the New Year gifts and preparing to drive to his uncle's house for dinner, Chen Jin still seriously talked with Shen Baichuan about future plans. She has not yet put marriage into her plans. It may be next year, or the year after. She doesn’t know when will be the right time.
"It's okay, then wait until you feel you can put marriage on the agenda."
Sometimes it is better to get the certificate on a whim one day than to make careful plans.
Shen Baichuan thought to himself: Anyway, someone wants to pin him down, how far can marriage be? That must be impossible!
"If you laugh again, I'll throw you down." Chen Jin warned fiercely.
"I laughed openly, not secretly."
When they arrived at my uncle's house, my second cousin looked at the two of them and asked, "Why are you smiling so happily, Baichuan?"
"He's laughing foolishly." Chen Jin replied for him. Just as he put his bag away, he was called over by his uncle and others.
Shen Baichuan followed slowly.
"Have you finished recording that interview?"
"No, he said he would come to the company to record a segment after the New Year."
How did Chen Jin get this interview? My uncle went home and thought about it for two days. One day, he received a call from Boss Tang and found out where she donated the money.
Then I thought about it again, and I realized that there was a photo of her and her pilot friend in her house, so it didn't seem so strange.
Later he asked her tentatively and she told him. She said her friend asked her not to tell anyone. But she also said that this was her uncle's own guess, not hers.
He thought that his third sister's friend probably had good intentions and was afraid that the target would be too big and cause trouble, so he didn't mention it to other people in the family.
Everyone else in the family thought that it was because of the popularity of a certain TV series during this winter vacation that Baiyou also became popular, so people paid attention to Baiyou and thought of interviewing the third sister.
I only mentioned a few things about work, and when we were eating at home, we mostly talked about family matters.
For example, my second uncle is planning to buy an apartment in Rose Garden.
But there are really no vacant houses here now. There are people who want to sell their houses, but they either ask for exorbitant prices or have bad neighbors. My second uncle hasn't bought one yet.
Chen Jia is still temporarily living in his uncle's house.
This year, not only our family members but also Liu Chengzhi's family members came to Rong City to celebrate the New Year.
My uncle thought, why not just book a private room in a restaurant to have the New Year’s Eve dinner together, so that we don’t have to cook at home.
Chen Jin took the opportunity to ask for everyone's opinions.
"There is land for sale in the town not far from the ancient village. If we want it, we can buy the land next to it. Even though it's not in the ancient village, it's not far away. It only takes a few minutes to drive there. It's also better in the town, as there is a clinic there."
"It's absolutely impossible to buy land in someone's ancient village, unless we buy all the land and develop it as a tourist attraction ourselves... No, uncle, you don't really think so, do you? It's too expensive."
My uncle didn't say whether he really thought so, but said: "It's okay, as long as you have money."
Chen Jin sighed, stood up and looked through his pockets. "It couldn't be emptier."
My uncle laughed and said, "That's not what you said last time. Didn't you say that if I needed money I could just ask? Why are you changing your mind so quickly?"
Chen Jin said confidently: "It's not the first day you know that my bragging can break the sky!"
A group of people followed suit and laughed.
That's so true.
But, they really couldn't figure out whether the third sister was rich or not.
People outside have only heard of the company run by the third sister, and probably everyone thinks she is rich, but when they meet her in person, they may not think so.
After all the joking, everyone still carefully considered whether to buy land and build a building in the town near the ancient village.
My second uncle and aunt weren't very interested, but if everyone was going, they didn't want to be left behind.
My third uncle and aunt were the ones who had the most similar idea. Having lived in the village for half their lives, they still felt that it was better to live somewhere more down-to-earth.
My uncle just wants to find a piece of land to live out his retirement years, and thinks it would be even better if he could grow some fruits and vegetables.
They thought about it for a long time and said that they would go and take a look at the land after the New Year. If the land was good, they would buy it and live out their retirement years there.
The next day, Chen Wenshi saw Chen Jin and Shen Baichuan coming back from buying New Year's goods in the rose garden. He looked at Chen Jin's car with a puzzled expression and said, "Third sister, isn't it time to change your car?"
Chen Jin quickly went to the front of the car and took a closer look. "There's nothing wrong with it. Why would you change a good car like this?"
"You can buy a new car for your factory manager, why don't you buy one for yourself?"
Although they are both the same model, the subordinates drive newer cars. When they go out, who can guess who is the boss? !
Chen Jin chuckled and said, "Save when you should, spend when you should. How great it is that no one could have guessed that I'm the boss. If someone wanted to trap Chen Jin, they wouldn't be able to find me."
Chen Wenshi pursed his lips. There is some truth in this.
When she went back to the village to burn incense on New Year's Eve, people always asked her in a roundabout way about giving her the car as a gift.
After replying to two people, Chen Jin didn't need to wait for others to continue the rest. He just started, "Yes! That's right! I have money and nowhere to spend it, I'm giving away cars! What, how can I spend the money I earn? Do I have to come to the ancestral temple to burn incense and make a petition to the ancestors? My mother came to me in a dream and said that if I don't spend the money I earn, I will have nothing to spend in the afterlife."
"......"
"Don't ask me about my marriage. Stop worrying about my affairs. When you have time, work harder to earn money and save up for the wedding gifts. I'll send out wedding invitations when the time comes. Don't worry, I'll make sure no one is left out."
"......"
"Any other questions?"
You have already spoken, what else can you say?
"Okay, as long as there's no problem."
Inside the ancestral hall, the village chief was already calling people.
