"Director Li, Happy New Year. I'm planning to visit Leader Qin on the afternoon of the seventh day of the first lunar month. Is that convenient for you?" Because it was Li Huaide who came to invite him before, and the time was not confirmed at that time. He was asked to visit after the New Year, so Lin Tian came to confirm the time with Li Huaide today.
However, it is not appropriate a few days after the New Year. Although people in this era talk about breaking superstitions, few people are willing to break many conventional rules.
Moreover, such a big boss would probably be very busy when he first started working, so Lin Tian postponed the time for a few days.
"Mr. Lin, Happy New Year! Let's tentatively arrange it for the afternoon of the seventh day. Let's have dinner together at my father-in-law's house. I'll ask my father-in-law to confirm the time, and I'll have someone send you a letter." Li Huaide said after thinking for a while.
"Then I'll have to trouble Director Li!" Lin Tian said.
"See you later!"
"See you later!"
After Lin Tian confirmed the time with Li Huaide, he also prepared a gift. After all, he had been a home patient before, but this time he was invited to be a home visit.
In the end, Lin Tian got a gold pen made by a master from his classmate Zhu Zhixin, which was a very good gift.
......
"Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year."
Lin Tian came to the office and greeted Li Wenhua and the others.
"This year has been tiring!" Wang Mingyu said with a sleepy look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Li Wenhua asked curiously.
"We have so many relatives, and visiting them is exhausting," said Wang Mingyu.
"Who doesn't visit relatives during the Chinese New Year?" Jiang Shufen said.
"Yes, I was exhausted before the holiday and then busy again during the Spring Festival. Now I can finally relax," said Li Wenhua.
"Where is your home?" Jiang Shufen asked Lin Tian.
"My family? I don't have many relatives. I spent the New Year with my uncle, so there is no need to visit relatives." Lin Tian shrugged and said with a thankful look on his face.
Lin Tian was a stay-at-home in his previous life, and the thing he hated most was visiting relatives. Now, the only relatives he had at home were probably a few from his mother's side, but since his grandparents passed away, they rarely visited each other.
"So what have you been doing these days?" Li Wenhua said.
"Just sleep at home!" He stretched out his body while saying this. He also muttered, "I'm tired after sleeping too much!"
The three people in the office looked at each other with disdain.
Lin Tian's New Year was indeed very leisurely, because he had taken care of all his relationships before the New Year. He went home for dinner on the 30th, and went to his master Wang Wujiu on the 1st to wish him a happy new year and pay homage to his ancestors.
"What are the plans for today?" Lin Tian asked Li Wenhua.
"It was discussed in the meeting just now that there will be a meeting at 10 o'clock and then everything will be fine. I guess the leaders are busy enough before the New Year and don't want to be busy anymore," said Li Wenhua.
Lin Tian and his companions nodded when they heard this. These leaders were quite considerate and didn't cause any trouble, otherwise the subordinates would have cursed them.
When it was ten o'clock, the leader's speech was still the same old routine. It was nothing more than wishing everyone a happy new year, saying that everyone had worked hard last year and that everyone should keep working hard this year, etc., but it had some more characteristics of the times.
………
On the fifth day of the New Year, Lin Tian received a notice from Li Huaide at work. Li Huaide sent someone from the factory to deliver it to him, saying that the date would be the seventh day.
"Leader Qin, Happy New Year. I haven't visited you for a while. You look much better." As soon as Lin Tian entered the room, he saw Leader Qin sitting in the living room drinking tea.
"Haha, I wouldn't believe it if others said so, but I believe it when you say it." Leader Qin was very happy to see Lin Tian coming and said that he looked much better.
"Don't talk nonsense. Leader Qin does look much better now," said Lin Tian.
"My father-in-law was reassigned after the New Year and is now the second-in-command." Li Huaide pretended to remind him in a low voice.
"Oh! Congratulations, Leader Qin. It seems like you're in a good mood because of good news." Lin Tian hurriedly bowed and said.
"Haha, Xiaolin, sit down and talk." Lin Tian sat down obediently and put the gold pen gift box he had prepared on the table. This gift box was specially made by a master craftsman, and he persuaded the master craftsman to make it during the Spring Festival.
"Xiao Lin, just come if you want to, but why bring any gifts? No more next time!" Lin Tian was thinking about how to give it away when Leader Qin took the initiative to speak.
"Hehe, the last time I came here, I saw the pen you were using in Leader Qin's study. It happened that I had a classmate who worked in the gold pen factory, so I asked him to ask Master Lu to make such a pen." Lin Tian explained.
"It seems that I brought it at the right time. I will use this to congratulate Leader Qin on his new position." Lin Tian handed the box to Leader Qin with both hands.
Leader Qin opened the box and took out the gold pen. At this time, Li Huaide had already brought paper and ink from the study.
Lin Tianxin said, if he were a leader, he wouldn't have such foresight as I do.
Leader Qin filled the pen with ink, then wrote a few words on the paper and said, "Very good. It is indeed the work of Master Lu."
"Haha, Xiaolin, the pen you saw me using before was also from Master Lu. That pen was given to me by a leader! Now I have a new one to use, not bad!" Leader Qin saw that Lin Tian was a little confused as to how he knew it after just one use, so he explained a few words.
"Xiao Lin, I invited you here today mainly to thank you for helping Huaide and his wife before. You also know that I only have one daughter, so these two children have always been a worry for me. Now the problem is finally solved." Leader Qin stated the purpose of inviting Lin Tian here today. In fact, Lin Tian had some guesses before coming.
"Leader Qin, you are too polite. This is what I should do. Besides, Director Li has also paid the medical fees." Lin Tian replied politely.
"That's different. Go ahead and hang out with your brother Li more often. Ask him to take care of you if anything happens." Leader Qin said as he gave instructions to Li Huaide.
"Then I'll trouble Brother Li to take care of me in the future." Lin Tian did not refuse. It was not a big deal. Lin Tian had originally planned to have a good relationship with Li Huaide.
"Brother, you are too polite. Have a couple more drinks later. I have been wanting to thank you for a long time." Li Huaide changed his words.
Then a few of them went to the living room and chatted idly. Not long after, the nanny from Leader Qin's family came over and informed them that it was time for dinner.
At the dinner table, Leader Qin said that his former office director had been transferred to the department above Lin Tian’s and was the head of the department. He had already informed him and asked him to take good care of Lin Tian.
Lin Tian thought about it and didn’t refuse. This faction was quite powerful.
Apart from anything else, it was very impressive that Li Huaide was able to get away with it after being involved in so many scandals for so many years. You know, many people were imprisoned for two years later.
In this way, he would have a backer in the grocery store and wouldn't have to worry about being implicated in the fight between Xie Tian and Zhu Siyuan.
Mainly, it is more convenient for me to slack off.
