Chapter 542: Able to take responsibility at critical moments
Yi Chi Chi was very sharp-eyed and quick-witted. Without even looking up, he said, "You wouldn't want to work for nothing either."
Ning Jiandong, "...I didn't say anything wrong."
There's really no need to rush and yell at him.
"Just do your work and I'll play with your son."
There was no reason for Yi Chi to refuse when someone was taking care of the baby.
Wen's mother and Qin Jiu would not refuse either.
It's simple, Wen Yi is just too energetic, and he took a nap during the day, so he won't sleep for a short time.
Their hunch proved to be completely correct.
Wen Yi was taken to the warehouse by Ning Jiandong and others to purchase some things. He came back and played until after ten o'clock, when he completely used up his energy and fell into a deep sleep.
Ning Jiandong and Gu Xinghua both have dormitories, so there is no place to rest in their offices, they are only suitable for working.
When Wen Yi was not asleep, Wen's mother and the others could still stay and look after the child.
Now that Wen Yi was asleep, his mother held Wen Yi in her arms and called Qin Jiu to go back to the guesthouse to rest.
It was almost eleven o'clock at this time. Gu Xinghua and Ning Jiandong were worried that they would go back alone, so they made a special trip to send them to the guesthouse.
So, in the huge office floor of Friendship Store, Yi Chichi was the only one working late into the night.
Half an hour later, the two old brothers, who had just sent Wen's mother and the others back, returned with the intention of helping Yi Chichi, but were decisively rejected by Yi Chichi.
"You two can't do the work I do. I appreciate your kindness, but there's no need for action. Uncle, you two should go back to the dormitory and rest."
The two people who really couldn't help at all were disappointed for a moment after hearing this, but they quickly cheered up.
As the saying goes, "A man's skill is his pretense." They are not good at drawing and embroidery, but they are good at other things.
"Are you hungry?"
"I'm hungry, can I have something to eat?"
Yi Chichi looked over and saw Ning Jiandong nodded and said yes. She immediately became excited and said, "I want to eat meat."
That's quite a bold idea. How can she get any fatter at this time?
"No, you eat whatever we make."
"...Okay."
Yi Chichi realized belatedly that there was no nightlife or late-night snacks now, and accepted their proposal disappointedly.
Then, she ate the malted milk, biscuits and candy prepared for her by the two grown men, and then stood up and moved around for more than ten minutes to relieve the discomfort caused by sitting for a long time before returning to the table to work again.
Then, after a sleepless night, she finished the work before Ning Jiandong and the others went to work.
She spread the embroidery pattern on the table to dry, made herself a cup of hot tea to calm herself down, and waited for another half an hour before Ning Jiandong finally came to work.
"Mission completed. Let's see if there are any problems. If not, I'll go brush my teeth and wash my face first."
Yi Chichi handed over the packed drawings. She was in good spirits after staying up all night, but her eyes were a little red.
There was also a hint of fatigue on his face.
"Okay, let's take a look first."
The two men took the drawings and checked them one by one. Yi Chichi observed their expressions and saw the smiles on their faces gradually widening. He knew that it was settled.
Her mission was successfully accomplished.
This was indeed the case. After the inspection, Ning Jiandong nodded with satisfaction, "As expected, you are still very capable in taking responsibility at critical moments."
"I have to satisfy my customers, otherwise I won't make enough money."
She jokingly replied, and Ning Jiandong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Alright, alright, don't remind me about the bill, either overtly or covertly. I don't intend to default on your bill."
If others are offended, then so be it. But if a master like Yi Chichi, who is good at painting and embroidery, is offended, there will be no way for him to come up with new embroidery patterns.
Only a fool would block the opportunity to earn foreign exchange for such a small amount of money.
Ning Jiandong felt that he was not a very smart person, but he was not a stupid person either.
So, he quickly called the finance department over and settled the bill for the embroidery pattern for Yi Chi Chi first. Then he reminded her, "You can have fun in the capital, but don't forget your work."
"Don't worry, I'm always serious about my work."
Yi Chichi put the money in his pocket, took the breakfast they brought and started eating.
"Who's going to take us to the station?"
"I'll take it."
Speaking of business, Gu Xinghua's expression became serious. "Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, we will go to the guesthouse to pick up your mother-in-law and others."
"good."
Ning Jiandong and his friends brought breakfast for five people, which was served in the cafeteria.
There are many varieties, including rice rolls, barbecued pork buns, boat porridge, etc.
After Yi Chichi finished his portion, he stood up, wiped his mouth, took the ticket handed to him by Ning Jiandong, took his breakfast with him, and urged Gu Xinghua to set off.
"Uncle, let's go. I'm done eating."
"OK!"
Gu Xinghua responded, took his briefcase, said hello to Ning Jiandong, and went to the guesthouse with Yi Chichi.
When the two arrived, Wen Yi was holding a bottle and eating dry rice, and Wen's mother was packing a bag. Qin Jiu looked at Wen Yi and lent a hand.
Hearing a knock on the door, he came to open it.
Yi Chichi's voice broke into his ears, "Xiaojiu, are you done packing?"
Before Qin Jiu could answer, Wen Yi became so excited when he heard his mother's voice that he didn't even bother to eat. He threw away his bottle and lay down on his stomach, yelling, "Come over here."
Mother Wen was so frightened that she rushed over and said, "My dear grandson, you are really not afraid of falling."
Before he finished speaking, Yi Chichi and Gu Xinghua entered the house.
"Mom, I'll do it. You and Xiaojiu should hurry up and have breakfast so you can leave."
Yi Chichi walked over, picked up the inexplicably excited Wen Yi, and put the bottle to his mouth, "Son, eat."
However, when Wen Yi saw his mother and others opening the rice rolls, he lost interest in the milk powder. The fat boy pointed at Qin Jiu's boat porridge and shouted for it.
Qin Jiu looked at Yi Chichi, "Sister, give it to me?"
"Give me some."
So, Wen Yi ate the boat porridge fed by Yi Chichi.
Gu Xinghua was drafted into the army and helped carry Wen's mother's packed luggage out of the guesthouse and put it in the car.
There are a lot of things. Wen's mother went to the warehouse to pick out defective items last night. She was like a mouse entering a rice warehouse. She wanted to buy everything she saw.
Therefore, she really bought a lot of things.
Among them were two bottles of Maozi.
This is bought for Mr. Song, who likes to drink two taels of wine every day.
Gu Xinghua made two trips before he put all the things in the car.
At this time, Wen's mother and the others had almost finished their breakfast. Yi Chichi washed Wen Yi's bottle and filled it with boiled water that had been cooled in advance.
At 9:30 a.m., Yi Chichi and her companions arrived at the station. Gu Xinghua busied himself getting everyone and their belongings onto the train. He then ran to find the conductor before returning to the soft sleeper compartment and instructing everyone, "Old and young, please close the doors once the train starts. I've already spoken to the conductor. If you need water or food, they can bring it to you."
"good."
Since the resumption of the college entrance examination, those educated youth who went to the countryside to work and passed the college entrance examination have returned to the city, and those who could not have returned have also slipped back.
When too many unemployed people gather together, problems are inevitable.
The current public security situation really cannot be underestimated.
This is true even if the train is a closed environment.
Therefore, Yi Chi was reluctant to listen to the advice.
"Okay uncle, we'll try our best to leave the box."
"Okay, the car is almost leaving. You guys walk on, I'll get off first. When you get to the capital, remember to send a telegram or call back to let me know you're safe."
"good."
Yi Chichi agreed without hesitation. Seeing this, Gu Xinghua got off the train. Instead of leaving in a hurry, he stood by the window and chatted with them until the train started with a sharp whistle. Then he left.
Yi Chichi and the others also officially set out on their journey to the capital.
