Chapter 306 Job Opportunities

"What? What kind of connections?" The colleague next to him asked curiously.

"You don't know yet? The one just now is the wife of Captain Lu. I heard that she came to our department because Captain Lu arranged for her to come. I heard that she only has a junior high school education." Lu Lijuan continued. "

Ah, a junior high school education? Then what can she do in our department? You can't arrange her to run errands and do odd jobs." "

How could that be possible? I heard that she came here to take pictures."

"Why did I hear that Captain Lu's wife came from the countryside? She came from the countryside, and she can take pictures?"

"I also heard that she came from the countryside, but I don't know if she can take pictures." Lu Lijuan said, smiling meaningfully.

"Can't reporter Xia take photos too? Why did you arrange for her to come in?"

"Haha, maybe she's just here to take up a vacant position and collect a salary." Xia Qingxi and Lu Lijuan had no grudges against each other. Lu Lijuan said this on the one hand to please Xia Guyu, and on the other hand she was instructed by someone else:

"These relatives are really annoying. It's a pity for our reporter Xia, who has to do the work of two people."

Xia Guyu couldn't stand hearing Lu Lijuan framing his good friend like this, so he walked in immediately, changed his usual gentle attitude, looked at Lu Lijuan and said in a cold voice:

"Mr. Lu, let me remind you that you must be responsible for what you say. You are saying these false things and damaging other people's reputations. Aren't you afraid that it will get to the minister's ears?" Lu

Lijuan, who was chatting with someone enthusiastically, did not expect Xia Guyu to come in suddenly. She also did not expect that after she spoke for her, she would scold her in front of others.

In everyone's eyes, she and this reporter Xia from North City with a background are good friends. Not wanting to be slapped in the face, Lu Lijuan hurried over and whispered to Xia Guyu:

"Guyu, you misunderstood me. I don't want to ruin anyone's reputation..." At this point, she lowered her voice and said to Xia Guyu:

"I'm just standing up for you."

"I don't think there is anything unfair." Xia Guyu said coldly:

"Why is Secretary Lu spreading rumors and making trouble here?"

"Guyu, you don't know..." Seeing that Xia Guyu was really angry and didn't know why she was so angry, Lu Lijuan just wanted to calm her down. After thinking for a while, she leaned over to Xia Guyu's ear and said:

"Last time I said that the woman who wanted to impersonate you was Xia Qingxing."

Xia Guyu's face changed as she listened to her increasingly outrageous words. She knew that Xia Qingxing would generally not offend others. Now that Lu Lijuan was targeting her, she might want to show off her presence in front of her, or someone was instructing her behind the scenes. So she asked calmly,

"Oh? How did she impersonate me?"

Seeing that Xia Guyu didn't seem as angry as before, Lu Lijuan quickly said,

"Didn't you get injured last time and arrive at the army a few days late? That Xia Qingxing lied that she was you and occupied your dormitory. In the end, she was found out and moved out."

"Are you saying this true?" Xia Guyu asked calmly.

"Of course it's true." Lu Lijuan said righteously.

"Well, we'll ask Comrade Xia Qingxi about it now. If we find out that you are the one who spread rumors and slandered Xia Qingxi, I will report you and ask for your punishment!" Xia Guyu said seriously.

When Lu Lijuan heard that she wanted to confront him and Xia Guyu wanted to report him, she quickly changed her words:

"Guyu, you... don't take it so seriously. I, I also heard it from someone."

"Heard it from someone? Who told you?" Xia Guyu didn't want to be evaded by her like this, so he asked to get to the bottom of it.

"Listen..." Lu Lijuan was speechless for a moment, and after a long time she said:

"Guyu, this matter may also be a rumor. I also believed the untrue words of others. Please don't pursue it."

"How dare you spread untrue rumors everywhere? Such irresponsible words come from the mouth of a propaganda department official. Do you think it is appropriate?"

After being sternly rebuked by Xia Guyu, Lu Lijuan stood there awkwardly. Everyone in the toilet came out and looked at the two of them. In an instant, the atmosphere became very tense.

"Guyu, I was wrong. I promise I will never say these things again in the future." Lu Lijuan was about to lose face, and hurriedly begged for mercy.

Xia Guyu glanced at her and said in a warning tone:

"I hope that Lu will think more carefully about what he says next! Besides, Xia Qingxi is my savior. If I hear anyone slandering her like this again, I will definitely report it to my superiors and ask for a thorough investigation!" After

saying that, Xia Guyu didn't look at her again. He turned around and walked away, leaving Lu Lijuan standing there in a daze, not yet coming to her senses.

Last Saturday, the army held a commendation meeting for Xia Qingxi. Lu Lijuan happened to take a leave to go to the city. She didn't know about this at all. She

didn't notice the article Xia Guyu published in the People's Daily. If she had known earlier, she would never have done such a stupid thing. She flattered the horse and hit the horse's hoof.

Section Chief Zhang from the Propaganda Department has come here. He knows that Xia Qingxi has come to apply for a job and is worried about how to deal with it.

In the past, the Propaganda Department was indeed lacking a photographer, but last week, Xia Guyu from Beicheng came to report. She can write articles and take photos, and the department is very satisfied with her.

The work in the department is one-on-one, and now one photographer is enough, but Xia Qingying was recommended by Brigade Commander Su, and now Section Chief Zhang is also very annoyed and doesn't know how to arrange her.

He is worried, but he still has to meet her. Soon Xia Qingying was taken to Section Chief Zhang's office.

After listening to her self-introduction, Section Chief Zhang looked at the photos she handed over. The photos were indeed well taken, but her education level was indeed a bit low. After hesitating for a while, he still said to Xia Qingying:

"Comrade Xia, I have seen your photos. They are very well taken, but... Reporter Xia who came last week was also photographed. You also know that the troops have a budget and cannot use too much film, so one photographer is sufficient..."

Xia Qingying naturally heard the meaning of his words and knew that the reporter Xia she was talking about was her good friend Xia Guyu. Of course, she would not take someone else's position. Although she felt a little disappointed, she still said politely:

"Oh, Chief, I understand. I won't bother you anymore."

Xia Qingying had just finished speaking and was about to stand up and leave when she heard a deep male voice coming from outside the door:

"Zhang Tianzhu, what's up with that propaganda poster outside? It's been a week, why is it still blank?"
