After confirming Yang Niannian's situation, Zheng Haitian said.
"I do have a suitable candidate. My niece Qinglan was also a top student before. She has been taking care of the children at home for the past few years. Now that the children are in school, she plans to go out to work."
After a pause, he said tactfully, "As for her character, you can rest assured. She has a good family background. Her father is a veteran cadre who just retired a few years ago. Her brother is in the Yucheng Army and was promoted to battalion commander this year."
As soon as she heard the word "good family background", Yang Niannian understood and said happily.
"Then please ask her what she thinks. If she has any requests for salary or other aspects, she can also raise them."
"Don't worry about the salary issue. Let me ask first and I will give you a reply in two days." Zheng Haitian said with a smile.
As soon as Yang Niannian hung up the phone, Zheng Xinyue couldn't wait to ask, "How was it? Who did your second uncle recommend for you?"
Yang Niannian, "She is said to be your second aunt's niece."
Zheng Xinyue immediately guessed who it was and exclaimed, "Oh my God, Second Uncle wants to introduce Sister Miao Yu to you as a financial officer. Nian Nian, you are so lucky."
Yang Niannian raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"
Zheng Xinyue's expression was very exaggerated. "My second aunt's family is very impressive. Before her father retired, he was the second in command of Haicheng. Her eldest brother is now following in his father's footsteps. Her second brother is the mayor of Shuitun Town. Sister Miao Yu is the youngest daughter of my second aunt and second brother."
Talking about Miao Yu, I couldn't help but feel sorry for her and said with a long sigh.
"The college entrance examination had not been resumed at that time, so she got married after graduation. However, her husband died in the flood fighting before the child was born. She gave birth to the child and has been living in her parents' home for these years. I guess she thought about going out to work because the child was in school."
Yang Niannian was curious, "With her family background, she should know the importance of studying. Why didn't she continue to study at university?"
In this day and age, it takes a lot of courage for a woman to have children and raise them alone without remarrying.
Zheng Xinyue said regretfully, "I took the exam right after it was resumed, but I didn't pass. Anyway, if you can hire her, you can just hide in bed and be happy! Sister Miao Yu is tough and smart, she will definitely help you manage the accounts, and she will definitely not do anything like running away with the money."
Yang Niannian was not worried about this, but about another thing, "With her family so powerful, will she have a temper like a spoiled daughter?"
She didn't want to invite a proud young lady back.
Zheng Xinyue shook her head confidently, "Don't worry! No, my second aunt's family has strict discipline. Children who don't obey will be beaten. They were beaten into submission when they were young."
Yang Niannian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I don't know if Miao Yu will agree to work in the factory."
Zheng Xinyue: "I think so."
Yang Niannian, "Wait for your uncle's call first!"
The two went out for lunch and bought some kitchen supplies.
I originally thought that Zheng Haitian would need a day or two to reply, but he called me back in the evening.
"Miao Yu is willing to work in the factory. It doesn't matter if the salary is a little lower than that of other factories. She has children at home, so she can only work from 8 am to 4 pm, and she needs a three-hour break at noon. If you think it's okay, she can start work the day after tomorrow."
Yang Niannian was delighted. "That's great. The factory has just opened, so the accounts may be a bit messy. Miao Yu will have to work hard. The salary will be 50 yuan a month, and the meal allowance will be 5 yuan a month. Do you think it's okay?"
50 yuan a month, this salary is 10 yuan higher than the financial salary in Zheng Haitian’s factory.
Yang Niannian was very thoughtful in her work, and Zheng Haitian was very satisfied, so he tactfully gave Yang Niannian some reassurance.
"Miao Yu is also a child I watched grow up. This girl has a calm personality and doesn't have any evil intentions."
Yang Niannian understood what he meant, and the two of them understood each other tacitly, without saying it out loud, "I'll inform Jiang Yang to take her to work the day after tomorrow."
After they finished talking about business, she handed the phone to Zheng Xinyue, "You guys chat for a while, I'm going to the bathroom."
"You should go quickly!" Zheng Xinyue took the phone and told Zheng Haitian about her and Qin Aonan's recent situation, and she despised Qin Aonan for being a blockhead.
The two of them have confirmed their relationship, and Qin Aonan would not say a few sweet words in the letter.
Zheng Haitian thought this was a good idea. "You have a quick temper, and Aonan has a steady personality, which suits you very well. Don't bully him. He doesn't meet many girls in the army, and he has no experience in love. When I first met your second aunt, I was as dull as Aonan, but your second aunt didn't dislike me."
Zheng Xinyue felt that Zheng Haitian didn't understand her thoughts, so she hung up the phone after chatting for a few words and sat on the bed sulking.
Yang Niannian came back from the bathroom and saw her like this. She couldn't help but be curious, "Who offended you? Why is your face so puffy?"
Zheng Xinyue said angrily.
"Isn't it still Brother Qin?"
Yang Niannian was a little confused, "Aren't you guys fine?"
Zheng Xinyue sighed, "It's really fine, but sometimes I feel like Brother Qin doesn't like me."
"We've been together for so long, but the content of his reply is still pitiful. Every word is very serious. Reading his letter is like reading a textbook. I can't feel any affection. Does he not like me?"
Yang Niannian didn't think so. "He's just too introverted and not good at expressing himself. If he didn't like you, he wouldn't agree to be with you."
When Yang Huiying wanted to get close to him, Qin Aonan remained indifferent. Facts have proved that if he doesn't like her, it's useless for her to get close to him.
Zheng Xinyue was puzzled. "But he didn't want to have close contact with me. The day before departure, I went to see him in the army. I wanted to kiss him, but he directly blocked my mouth with his hand and stopped me, saying that it was not good. What era is this? He is either too old-fashioned or he doesn't like me."
Yang Niannian almost couldn't hold back her laughter and almost got internal injuries.
I really didn't expect that this girl would be so brave, and I didn't expect Qin Aonan to refuse.
Zheng Xinyue saw that Yang Niannian's eyes were narrowed into crescents and her face puffed up with anger.
"You are so disrespectful. I am so upset and you are still making fun of me."
She couldn't explain why. She had thought that as long as she could pursue Qin Aonan, everything would be fine. But after she really succeeded him, she was no longer satisfied and wanted Qin Aonan to respond to her feelings.
Yang Niannian coughed twice and patted her cheeks to make her expression look less happy.
His eyes flashed and he came up with a bad idea.
"I think Deputy Captain Qin is too old-fashioned. If you want to change him, you'd better give him some strong medicine to stimulate him. Generally speaking, for a man like him, a little stimulation can open up his Ren and Du meridians."
Zheng Xinyue's eyes lit up, "How is it exciting???"
Yang Niannian's eyes were full of cunning, "Mention the other man in the letter in a subtle way."
"I will write to him now, and you teach me how to write."
Zheng Xinyue pulled Yang Niannian to the desk, took out paper and pen and asked Yang Niannian to teach her how to write a letter word by word.
