Second Aunt has been living a very comfortable life these past two days.
Ever since everyone knew the news yesterday that Liu Haizhong was going to be the director, when Second Auntie went to the outside of the hospital for a talk session during the day, everyone started praising her.
Especially the Wu family's daughter-in-law who had a fight with the second aunt yesterday, after seeing the second aunt coming out, she immediately walked away with a gloomy face. The main reason was that she had also heard the news that Liu Haizhong was going to be the director. Since she couldn't afford to offend her, she just stayed away and didn't want to bring trouble to the man in her family.
"When will your Director Liu take office?" Old Mrs. Qin asked with a smile.
After all the flattery from these people yesterday, Second Aunt was a little lost. When she heard Old Lady Qin ask this, Second Aunt said leisurely, "Oh, I don't know about this matter yet, but it will be decided when it is. If our Old Liu is not allowed to be the director, someone else will do it."
After enjoying the flattery outside for a while, the second aunt went back to the yard.
After the second aunt passed away, the style of these old ladies changed.
"You said that Liu Haizhong could become the workshop director, but I never expected it."
"Who said it wasn't true? If I had known earlier, I would have gotten along better with him. We can also borrow some of his influence. If anyone wants to work in a factory, there will be a way for them to do so."
"I think this matter may be true..." Jia Zhang listened to the sour words of everyone and came out to make trouble again.
"Maybe, right? There is no way this could be wrong. Sister-in-law Jia, you are just talking nonsense."
When Jia Zhang was rebuked by someone, she naturally couldn't just give in and rebuked back immediately.
"Anyway, he hasn't become the emperor yet. Let's wait until he becomes the emperor." Jia Zhang said unwillingly.
After Jia Zhang's stirring, everyone was a little hesitant. Could someone like Liu Haizhong really become a workshop director? But the Second Aunt was showing off her power and it didn't seem like she was just talking nonsense.
………
“Hehehe…”
After hearing Liu Haizhong say that the news of his becoming the director would be announced in the next two days, Second Aunt hummed a song, which was rare, while she was cooking at home in the evening.
If not everyone in the courtyard already knew about it, she would have wanted to go door to door to inform them, and then hold a banquet to treat everyone in the courtyard to a meal.
After cooking, Second Aunt waited at the door for Liu Haizhong to come back from get off work.
But it was already past the time to get off work, and Liu Haizhong was still nowhere to be seen.
The second aunt went to the front yard and the middle yard and looked around. Yan Jiecheng, Yi Zhonghai and the others had already returned.
I originally wanted to ask, but then I remembered that I am the director’s wife now and I am not on the same level as them.
Besides, there was no one in the hospital working in the same workshop as Liu Haizhong, so it felt like it was useless to ask.
After waiting for a long time, Liu Haizhong finally came back with heavy steps.
The second aunt came forward and asked, "Why did you come back so late?"
In particular, she found that her bangs were covered in sweat. You know, it was almost winter, and it was strange that she was sweating just after walking back.
"Don't mention it, just get me some water to wash my face."
As Liu Haizhong spoke, he handed the bag in his hand to the second aunt.
Second Aunt thought there was only a lunch box inside, but she didn't expect it to be so heavy when she took it.
When I opened it, I saw quite a few things inside. Upon closer inspection, it was obvious that I had bought them with the money in the morning.
"Old Liu, who are you planning to give as gifts?" Second Aunt knew that Liu Haizhong must be buying these things as gifts for someone else. No one in his family would eat these things, and they were quite expensive.
"Put it away, put it away, what else do you want to give me? I won't give it away!" Liu Haizhong said unhappily.
The main reason was that Liu Haizhong wanted to tell the truth, but he also felt it was really embarrassing.
I couldn't tell my second aunt that I wanted to give a gift and chased the person's bicycle all the way but failed to catch up, so I had to come back in shame.
"What should we do with these things?" The second aunt looked through them carefully and found that they were quite expensive. If she didn't give them away, it would be a waste to eat them herself.
“Just leave it there for now. If it doesn’t work, just eat it yourself.” Liu Haizhong said impatiently.
Liu Haizhong felt that things had been very unlucky for him in the past two days, especially regarding the director.
The first thing was that Liu Guangtian lost the chicken he was going to give to the workshop director.
The second thing was that Lin Tian had a falling out with Li Huaide and couldn’t help him.
The third thing is that I didn’t catch up with someone’s bicycle when I was delivering a gift tonight.
"Okay, you'll be the director by then anyway, so this little thing won't mean much to our family."
The Second King had always believed that it was a foregone conclusion that Liu Haizhong would become the workshop director, so he didn't take this trivial matter seriously.
Liu Haizhong waved his hand impatiently and ignored the second aunt who was chattering beside him.
Because of the successive failures, and the fact that a new director was to be appointed the next day, Liu Haizhong did not sleep and smoked all night.
In the morning, the second aunt looked at the thick dark circles under the bangs and asked worriedly: "You didn't sleep all night? Can you go to work today?"
At this time, the second aunt also guessed that Liu Haizhong must have not slept all night because of the director's matter. She thought he was so excited about becoming the director that he didn't sleep.
But what Second Aunt didn't expect was that things were not at all as Liu Haizhong said.
"Okay, eat your meal and then talk to me when I come back."
Because he had been smoking all night, Liu Haizhong's voice was very hoarse.
After looking at Liu Haizhong who looked a little impatient, Second Aunt said nothing and went straight down to cook.
After all, Liu Haizhong is about to become the workshop director, so she dare not talk back to Liu Haizhong.
When leaving home, Liu Haizhong also met Yi Zhonghai.
"Old Liu, the director of your workshop should be announced today, right? It should be you, right?" Yi Zhonghai said as if very happy.
Yi Zhonghai acted very happy for Liu Haizhong, but only he knew what he was thinking in his heart.
"Haha, that's about right. In our workshop, no one else has a chance except me!"
Although Liu Haizhong was somewhat discouraged by the repeated setbacks, he was still very confident when he thought about it carefully. After all, the few people in the workshop were far inferior to him.
"Then let me congratulate you in advance. I'll ask my wife to prepare two dishes in the evening, and we'll have a drink to celebrate. We can also invite Old Yan to come along then." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.
Yi Zhonghai knew that he could not stop Liu Haizhong from rising to the top, but he felt that he could still fool Liu Haizhong, so he prepared in advance to show goodwill to Liu Haizhong.
"Okay, okay, let's have a drink tonight." Although Liu Haizhong was very tired, he still responded to Yi Zhonghai with a forced smile.
"Oh, our hospital finally has a great leader!" Yi Zhonghai also pretended to flatter Liu Haizhong.
"It's just a small matter, it's nothing!"
Yi Zhonghai is so good at fooling people that just a few words from him made Liu Haizhong lose his mind and even start to feel proud.
