Chapter 068 Medical Glass Work
Gao Yi acted decisively and swiftly, and Wen Jiajia was surprised by her plan that afternoon.
After lunch, before Wen Jiajia had time to rest, Gao Yi called her to the office.
Not long after she entered the office, Liang Mu, the leader of Group 2, also strode in.
Gao Yi wiped his sweat and said, "I have something to inform you. The day after tomorrow I need you to go on a business trip to Hai City with me. You should finish what you need to do tomorrow. We will meet at the ticket office of the train station at 8 o'clock the day after tomorrow morning."
"Ah, the day after tomorrow?" Liang Mu opened his mouth slightly.
Gao Yi raised his eyes and looked at him: "Is there any problem?"
Throwing the handkerchief on the table, he said, "If you have any questions, bring them up. There will be no problem with the work. After all, we are currently a bald department. Apart from sorting out the data, there is nothing else you need to do. The reason why the workshop can operate normally is because of the support of other brother factories, but we also need new products and need to develop new products as soon as possible. Is it a problem at home?"
Gao Yi looked him up and down, as if considering whether to replace him.
Liang Mu said hurriedly, "No, there is no problem at home. I will definitely be at the train station on time the day after tomorrow morning."
Only then did Gao Yi retract his gaze and look at Wen Jiajia again.
Wen Jiajia: "Director, should we go today? I can pack my luggage and arrange my schedule."
Gao Yi's tone was a little more relaxed: "If nothing goes wrong, we will be gone for three days, or maybe stay for two more days. You must be prepared to come back after five days."
"Okay, Director." Wen Jiajia didn't ask any more questions, feeling a little excited.
How can I not be excited? I am getting to see the Magic City in the 1970s. It must have been much more prosperous than here.
After returning to the office, Wen Jiajia had no intention of resting. She quickly wiped the tables and chairs, cleaned the windows, and then immersed herself in making work plans.
The current work in their office is not difficult because the R&D personnel are not in place yet. They just need to go to the workshop to help test products and make observation records, as well as assist the people from the sister factories who come to support them.
Running between the office and the workshop, Wen Jiajia only had a rough experience of her daily work in the evening.
At the pharmaceutical factory she could leave work at 5 p.m., but in the hospital she couldn't do that.
Fortunately, there are many people from the military family hospitals in the hospital, so it won’t be dangerous to travel with them after get off work.
It's a rare experience to be in the city at six o'clock.
The streets were bustling with people. Almost all units got off work at this time, so the streets were particularly lively.
Some were returning home in groups, while others were struggling to make their way through the crowd on their bicycles.
The state-owned hotel welcomed the peak dining period. Steam was coming out of the steamer at the door. When a breeze blew, Wen Jiajia could smell the fragrance of steamed buns in the wind.
Wen Jiajia stopped at the state-owned restaurant at the entrance of the pharmaceutical factory and bought ten large steamed buns. Steamed buns only required food coupons, and she had plenty of them in her pocket.
“How’s the new factory?” Lanlan asked while packing steamed buns.
Wen Jiajia smiled and said, "It's not bad. The office is in a newly built building. Dong Qi and I are in the same office."
"Wow, it's a new building! The walls of the new building must be whiter than this steamed bun of mine." Lan Lan said with a smile, "I'll go to the Medical Glass Factory to visit you tomorrow when I'm free. I heard that your buildings are very beautiful. I'll go and take a look!"
As he said this, he handed her two oil paper bags.
Wen Jiajia took the bag and said, "Okay! Next week, I have to go on a business trip the day after tomorrow."
"Where are you going on business?"
"Hai Shi!" Wen Jiajia winked at her and whispered, "If you need me to bring anything, tell me tomorrow and I'll bring it for you."
Lan Lan was overjoyed: "Really!"
She grabbed Wen Jiajia's hand and said, "Okay, okay, you must help me bring it. I heard that Haishi has a lot of beautiful fabrics."
"No hurry, no hurry. Just write a list for me tonight." Wen Jiajia looked at her watch, waved her hand and said, "I have to go now. If I don't leave now, I won't be able to catch up with the people who want to go home with me."
Lan Lan waved happily: "See you tomorrow."
Looking at Wen Jiajia's leaving back, she couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart, and her mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear.
"Sister Lan, why are you smiling at the steamed buns?" asked a customer who came to buy steamed buns.
"Flowers are growing on the smiling bun!" Lanlan was in a particularly good mood at the moment and it was rare for her to joke back at the guests.
When it was time to get off work, she carried her cloth bag home without staying even a minute longer.
This shocked her colleagues at the state-owned hotel, because they knew that Lanlan always waited until the apprentices started to clean up the kitchen before leaving, just for the leftovers at the bottom of the pot.
Leftover rice doesn't keep well in the summer, so if there is any leftover rice, it is usually shared among the staff. Although most of the time each person only gets a quarter of a fist-sized rice ball, it is still white rice.
Lanlan doesn’t care what her colleagues think. All she has in her mind at this moment are lists!
At seven o'clock, when Wen Jiajia got home, it was already completely dark.
The starry sky is shining, the moonlight is bright. Wen Jiajia used to complain every day that she was working "early out and back late" and it was so hard, but at this moment, "early out and back late" got its true meaning.
My previous job was so hard, now it’s really hard!
Wei Dai has been busier than her recently, so as expected, he hasn't come back yet.
The lights at home were on. Wen Jiajia parked the car and entered the house to see the two girls squatting next to the coffee table, concentrating on building new blocks.
Whenever Wei Dai had free time, he would make building blocks for the two girls. For his hobby of carpentry, he had no idea how many times he had gone to the village to buy wood.
This has led to the two girls having more and more building blocks. So far, each of them has five sets of small building blocks, and a total of three sets of large building blocks.
The small set of building blocks has a little over a hundred pieces, the large set of building blocks has more than three hundred pieces, and the set I made last week has a full five hundred pieces!
Five hundred blocks are enough to fill up the tea table!
This was the first time the two girls had faced such a big challenge and they had been playing with this set of building blocks for the past few days.
Build houses, build yards, build towering mountains and vast rivers, and also build trains and train stations.
He was so engrossed in playing that he didn't even react until Wen Jiajia came into the room.
"Are you hungry?" Wen Jiajia suddenly asked.
"Ah——Auntie, you are finally back!"
Wen Xuan, who was sitting outside, jumped up quickly, hugged Wen Jiajia's waist, and nodded uncontrollably: "I'm hungry, so hungry."
Wen Jiajia: "Didn't you eat any cookies?"
Before going to work, she left a few dry biscuits on the table, covering them with an upside-down rice bowl, just to fill their stomachs.
"I've finished eating, but I'm still hungry." Wen Xuan looked up at her pitifully, still sniffing.
"Okay, I'll let you guys have your meal in ten minutes!"
Wen Jiajia put the two bags of steamed buns on the table, went to the kitchen, opened the cupboard and took out the pickled vegetables that had been fried last night and the peeled and cooked bamboo shoots.
Fire-roasted bamboo shoots, also known as Double Ninth Festival bamboo shoots, are about to enter season.
The local fire bamboo shoots will appear around the 15th day of the eighth lunar month and appear in large quantities on the 10th day of the ninth lunar month.
Nowadays, after entering the eighth month of the lunar calendar, some people have already gone to the mountains to pick bamboo shoots, and even every morning you can see villagers carrying bamboo shoots to sell in the market.
Otherwise, why do they say that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads? Transportation is really important to the village.
In Fuyang, the September bamboo shoots can only be picked and eaten by oneself, so people are thinking about how to pickle them and eat them during the Chinese New Year.
However, here, the bamboo shoots picked by the villagers can be collected together, and the village party secretary and the team leader will take a few villagers to the purchasing station in the city.
There are agricultural product purchasing stations in the city, where you can bring wild delicacies such as bamboo shoots and mushrooms to exchange for money. Hardworking people can earn at least ten yuan a year from these wild delicacies.
She had heard from someone a few months ago that an old lady nearby actually earned five yuan by picking ferns.
It is said that she found a hillside where ferns grew lushly. The location of the hillside was hidden and she had not told anyone about it.
Later, someone thought she was sneaking around and followed her, only to find the place. Unfortunately, she had already picked most of the bracken, and the man was very sad.
Wen Jiajia was cutting the bamboo shoots into small dices at this moment. The clang of chopping was very rhythmic.
After cutting, turn on the fire. When the oil is hot, add the pickled vegetables and stir-fry until fragrant, then add the diced bamboo shoots.
If you want to make the pickled vegetables delicious, you must be willing to use oil, and you should use rapeseed oil or peanut oil that will not solidify. If there is not enough oil, the pickled vegetables will be dry and the salty flavor will not come out.
When it’s almost done, put it on a plate.
Then fry the eggs with green peppers. First, fry the peppers until they are slightly spicy, then serve them for later use. Then, fry the eggs with a sizzling sound.
Scramble the eggs, add green peppers and seasonings.
You can eat it after the spicy taste is slowly covered by the aroma of the egg. At this time, the green pepper is still a little crisp, but it has been completely killed. It is very fresh and fragrant when combined with the egg.
"Eat!" Wen Jiajia brought two plates of food to the table, "Go wash your hands and eat, then we can fight after you finish eating."
Wen Chun got up from the ground: "Then don't take it, auntie. I just finished the train station with great difficulty."
"No, don't worry."
Wen Jiajia poured three more glasses of water and placed them on the table.
Each student at home now has an enamel cup. Wen Jiajia asked them to mark the cups themselves. Now that she has the conditions, she can no longer share a cup with others.
Stir-fried bamboo shoots with pickled vegetables and scrambled eggs with green peppers are both "steamed bun dishes". The oily pickled vegetables and bamboo shoots are sandwiched on the snow-white steamed buns, which are immediately soaked in oil. When you take a bite, the wheat aroma of the steamed bun and the salty aroma of the stir-fried bamboo shoots with pickled vegetables blend in your mouth, and you have finished a big, soft steamed bun before you know it.
Wen Jiajia felt that one was not enough, so she drank some water and broke off half of a steamed bun to eat.
Wen Chun and Wen Xuan each ate half a piece and were full. The two girls were actually not that hungry, after all, they had eaten some dried biscuits.
Wen Jiajia asked Lao Yu to buy four pounds of milk biscuits and two pounds of old-fashioned French biscuits for them to eat in the evening.
Now that we don’t use bowls for dinner, cleaning the kitchen is a breeze!
Wen Jiajia wiped her hands and came out of the kitchen. She said to the two sisters who were still racking their brains to find a train, "I'm going on a business trip the day after tomorrow. I may not be back until the weekend or next Monday."
The two sisters were shocked and said in unison: "Business trip?"
Wen Chun threw down the blocks in his hand and asked, "What do you mean by a business trip, aunt? Why can't I go home when I'm on a business trip?"
Wen Jiajia: "A business trip means going to work in another place, just like... just like your uncle-in-law. Doesn't your uncle-in-law leave home for a few days, ten days or even a month from time to time? I am the same, but I can come back in three or four days."
Wen Chun's cheeks were puffed up: "Does it take that long? Will it make more money?"
“…”
"No, but this is work, and the leader has spoken, so I have to go."
Wen Chun said: "Then I want to be a leader when I grow up! That way I won't be sent on business trips."
Wen Jiajia was speechless. She pinched her pufferfish-like cheeks and said, "There are always leaders above the leaders. For example, I was taken on a business trip by the leader this time. And even if you are the factory director, you still have to go on a business trip."
If you don't want to go on business trips, that's fine. I'll buy you a few houses in the future and you can just lie back and relax on the property certificates.
Wen Jiajia doesn't ask the two girls to achieve great things when they grow up. Life is just a few short decades, and it's good enough if they can be happy all the time.
Of course, you still have to get good grades. After all, wealth depends on intelligence.
If your brain cannot keep up, the wealth in your hands will surely return to society in various forms.
For example, being deceived.
Think about those stubborn people who will still transfer money to scammers in the police station decades later...Wen Jiajia doesn't hope that Wen Chun and Wen Xuan will be among them at all.
Wen Jiajia put her hands behind her back and asked Wen Chun, "Have you finished writing the two pages of numbers today?"
Wen Chun raised his chin and said proudly, "I wrote it. I wrote it as soon as I got back, and I didn't make any mistakes in the numbers this time."
She didn't even use an eraser today!
Wen Jiajia patted her shoulder gently and said with relief: "Not bad, I'll bring you some delicious food when I get back from my business trip."
Wen Xuan's eyes lit up: "What's delicious?"
Wen Jiajia: "Well, let me think about it. I'll bring you the most authentic butterfly cakes! The butterfly cakes from the big hotel."
Wen Chun exclaimed in surprise: "Aunt, are you going to Hai City?"
"Yeah, how did you know?"
"Because that's where the butterfly cakes come from." Wen Chun said with blushing cheeks, "The teacher said Haishi is so big and prosperous, with tall buildings and department stores that are many times bigger than those in the city! Feifei bought a hairpin there!"
Wen Jiajia waved her hand and said, "If there is a chance, Auntie will buy it for you too."
"Wow--"
The two children jumped up with excitement and screamed "Ahhhhhhh", louder than the cicadas outside the house!
Seeing that the two of them were accepting it well, Wen Jiajia went into the house. She still had to pack her luggage.
Wen Jiajia took the suitcase from the top of the closet. She bought this suitcase at the beginning of the year.
At that time, a batch of suitcases arrived at the department store, and some of the suitcases were damaged during transportation. Old Yu asked her if she wanted them, and of course Wen Jiajia wanted them.
She even shamelessly asked for two, one large and one small. The small one was for traveling in the summer, and the large one was for winter. Wen Jiajia was using the small one at the moment.
The exterior of the suitcase is made of leather, the four corners are wrapped with iron sheets, and the handles are also made of iron sheets.
With two clicks, the suitcase opened.
Wen Jiajia opened the closet to take out clothes again, thought for a moment, and decided to take three sets of clothes with her.
Fortunately, her period was over, and it would be very inconvenient to travel without sanitary napkins.
Put your clothes in, and bring a towel. After you finish brushing your teeth the day after tomorrow, put your toothbrush and toothpaste in the suitcase.
The only place to stay at this time is a guesthouse, which doesn't provide free toothpaste or toothbrushes, let alone towels. It would be great to have hot water.
In order to prevent the two sisters from being too tired to eat during the business trip, Wen Jiajia took out a dozen White Rabbit candies from their candy jars.
Finally, I took a notebook and two pens and locked the suitcase with a "click".
It was already nine o'clock when I finished taking a shower.
The night outside was alluring, and the moonlight fell into the courtyard, making it so hazy that it seemed covered with a layer of silver gauze.
The room was silent, with only the occasional sound of clothes rubbing against bamboo mats. Wen Jiajia tossed and turned in her big bed, unable to sleep. She was too excited to sleep.
The last time I went to Haishi was a lifetime ago. Counting on my fingers, it has been two years and nine months.
——
Wen Jiajia fell asleep in excitement. What she thought about during the day came to her dreams at night, and she had beautiful dreams about the Magic City all night.
The next day.
Wei Dai was still sleeping when Wen Jiajia woke up, but she woke up as soon as she stood up.
She covered her mouth and yawned: "When did you come back last night?"
"It's almost four o'clock." Wei Dai rubbed his head and said.
Wen Jiajia put her hands on his eyes and said quickly, "Why don't you sleep a little longer? I'll go cook. Oh, I have something else to tell you. I'll tell you when you wake up."
Wei Dai was still groggy from sleep. He nodded and pulled the quilt over him: "I'll sleep a little longer."
Wen Jiajia moved slowly, opened the door gently, and then closed it gently.
The two bottles of milk have been delivered and are placed in the milk box at the door.
This milk crate was made by Wen Jiajia. Although it is a little crooked, it still looks like a green milk crate in the future.
What to pair with milk?
There is no bread, only vegetable cakes.
Wen Jiajia fried a few vegetable cakes with cabbage, scallions, carrots, eggs and flour. She cut the cabbage and carrots into shreds, cut the scallions into sections, and mixed them into the flour. She cracked two eggs, added water and salt, stirred well, and then fried them in a pan.
She fried the amount she would eat in the evening. Vegetable pancakes can be eaten cold anyway.
Then boil the milk. Although some nutrients will be cooked by it, it is better than drinking bacteria.
The two sisters got up.
Now they can dress themselves, brush their teeth, wash themselves, and empty their urine buckets.
You see, children should not be too accustomed to things.
Take Xiaopang for example. According to Xiaopang’s mother’s complaints, Xiaopang still wets the bed at his age, and his grandmother has to help him put on his clothes every day.
Later, after being scolded by the teacher, the grandmother let her fat grandson dress himself.
Wen Jiajia calculated that Wen Chun and Wen Xuan had not urinated in bed for more than half a year. This is really cause for celebration!
"I'll put the pancakes on the table. If you get hungry when you come back in the evening, you can take them and eat them, okay?"
"Yes!" said the two children.
Wen Jiajia added, "I've put boiled water in the teapot. If you're thirsty, don't bear it. Don't drink the raw water in the kitchen or the water in the thermos. Just drink the water in the teapot on the table."
"I know—"
The two children stuffed their mouths with vegetable cakes. My aunt had said this yesterday and the day before yesterday. They are not fish and will not forget things so quickly.
After eating, the two girls ran to listen to the radio, but Wei Dai hadn't woken up yet. It was time to leave, so Wen Jiajia could only leave a note for him.
Wei Dai didn't wake up until almost noon.
When he woke up, no one was home. Wei Dai smiled when he saw the note on the table.
No wonder.
His wife must be very happy to be on a business trip. She was mumbling words like "shopping", "buying buns", and "eating fried buns" when she was sleeping.
medical glass factory.
Wen Jiajia hurried away, and at least she wasn't late for work the next day.
I had just arrived at the office and hadn't even sat down to drink a sip of water when Gao Yi asked me to subscribe to a newspaper.
"Subscribe seven newspapers for our department, three will be sent to the workshop, and the other four will be sent to our third floor. Do you know what newspapers you are ordering?" Gao Yi asked.
Wen Jiajia: "The provincial newspapers include the People's Daily and the Workers' Daily."
"Yes! These three are enough. But I need to order a few more magazines."
"You say." Wen Jiajia smiled again and said, "If there are more than three copies, please lend me another piece of paper and a pen."
Gao Yi also laughed and said, "I'll write it to you."
As he spoke, he opened the notebook and began to write - "Mechanical Workers", "Chlorine Alkali Industry", and "Medical Equipment".
Gao Yi seemed to want to write more, but he paused and said, "Forget it, just these three." Some of them have already been discontinued.
"Oh, order Medical Devices first. It will be delivered next year. Some are bimonthly and some are semi-annual. Don't worry if it doesn't arrive by then. Buy back all the copies of Mechanical Worker and Chlorine Alkali Industry that were published this year."
Wen Jiajia nodded, took the paper and said, "Okay." Then she left the office.
This matter cannot be handed over to the newbies in the office. The experienced people in the mailroom will fool them into a mess. Wen Jiajia sighed and resigned herself to going downstairs to the mailroom.
At the door of the mail room, Wen Jiajia ran into Fang Hongjun who was on patrol.
Fang Hongjun greeted her and asked her, "Are you planning to go home to visit your relatives before the New Year?"
Wen Jiajia was stunned and shook her head: "Probably not. Are you going back? The factory must be very busy this year, and it will be difficult to ask for leave."
Fang Hongjun scratched his head and said, "There's no other way. If I don't go back, my mother will come."
Wen Jiajia could understand. After all, her son changed his career because of an injury. She must be wondering how serious the injury must have been for him to change his career.
"Then tell me before you go back and bring some things back for me and Wei Dai." Wen Jiajia said, "Oh, if possible, go to my house again... It's my house, not Wei Dai's. I'm afraid there's a leak in the house or the vegetable garden behind the door has collapsed or something. The key is in the hands of Aunt Zhang next door."
Fang Hongjun nodded: "Okay! Small problem."
Wen Jiajia waved and left.
When I arrived at the mailroom, coincidentally, there was another acquaintance there.
However, she was not from the pharmaceutical factory, but the daughter of the old man who was the janitor during the construction of the medical glass factory.
Wen Jiajia was quite familiar with the eldest doctor because she came to the hospital from time to time.
Once, the eldest grandfather's granddaughter came to bring her food. Wen Jiajia happened to meet her and became acquainted with his young lady.
His granddaughter looks a lot like Lin Daiyu, in terms of her appearance. Although she is weak and frail, she is a healthy version of Lin Daiyu, not a physical version like Pingping.
In short, this girl is beautiful!
Wen Jiajia is actually a face lover. It is normal for her to look at good-looking people a few more times, and it is also normal for her to not be able to help but smile when she sees someone.
"Jia Jia, are you here to order a newspaper?"
"Yes! Bai Ying, you are here. I thought you were going to work under your mother."
"Well, my mother thinks I'm useless and won't let me work for her. I'm also afraid that she'll have to scold me all day, so I might as well come to my grandfather's place."
Wen Jiajia laughed, "You two mother and daughter are so funny."
Her mother is the women's director of the factory and she gave a speech on stage yesterday.
Lin Yunfei said that this women's director was very good at doing work related to women. When she was young, she had arranged jobs for prostitutes on the street. Nearly a hundred women in the sex industry in the city had been arranged by her. The letters of thanks she received were enough to cover the entire street office. She also received the March 8th Red Flag Bearer medal.
Wen Jiajia thought to herself that if there were any assignments that needed her to write in the factory in the future, she would use this women's director as material.
People like this need to be extremely famous.
