After a brief moment of surprise, Xu Jianian couldn't help but grab Madam Xu's arm in response to her words.
"Don't worry, Mom, I know what I should and shouldn't do."
It was already very generous of Madam Xu to say such things to her.
Xu Jianian knew that his most important goal at the moment was to study, so he couldn't help but snuggle up to Madam Xu and act coquettishly.
Seeing the smile on her daughter's face, Madam Xu couldn't help but smile as well, letting Xu Jianian snuggle in her arms and act coquettishly.
...
After Jiang Sheng returned to school, Zhao Defu also happened to return to school.
The two exchanged a glance and quickly returned to the lecture hall in perfect unison.
The moment I sat down in my seat, the bell rang for class.
"You two arrived just in time!"
Qian Duoduo, standing next to her, couldn't help but whisper, "If we had come any later, the teacher for this class would have been a real shrew, and she would have marked it as an absence and deducted your credits!"
"You guys just don't understand, do you?"
Sun Youzhuang teased mysteriously, "I saw Brother Sheng having dinner with a girl outside, chatting and laughing. They were on a date. So what if he was late and lost credits? Right?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sheng subconsciously asked, "Where did you see us eating?"
"I just went out to buy a simple steamed bun, and that's how I saw it!"
Sun Youzhuang teased, "I thought Sun Chunjuan was quite pretty, but I didn't expect that Brother Sheng knew someone even prettier. I really envy Brother Sheng's good connections!"
The four of them whispered amongst themselves until the teacher arrived, at which point they quickly shut up.
As the four of them were leaving the lecture hall after their afternoon classes, they happened to see Zhao Nianmeng waiting there.
Upon seeing his older sister, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, Jiang Sheng couldn't help but smile. After telling his roommates, he quickly rushed over.
"Big sister, why did you suddenly think of our school?"
With a delighted smile, Jiang Sheng said, "You didn't even tell me you were coming! I could have treated you to a nice meal outside!"
"What, every time I come here you have to treat me to a meal?" Zhao Nianmeng couldn't help but tease with a laugh, "Is it that besides meals you don't know where else to take me?"
Jiang Sheng quickly raised his hands in apology and chuckled, "I was just thinking that my older sister works so hard every day, so I had to treat her to a good meal to make up for her visiting me today!"
"You're so sweet-talking!"
Zhao Nianmeng smiled and said, "The main reason I came to see you today is because I haven't seen you for a while. I came to the school to see you and also to check out the school environment you live in."
"OK!"
Jiang Sheng readily agreed, "That's easy. We don't have classes tonight anyway, so I'll show you around the school, and you can have a meal at our school cafeteria!"
Zhao Nianmeng smiled and nodded. Looking at her younger brother, whom she hadn't seen for almost a month, her smile involuntarily softened.
The siblings walked and chatted, and the atmosphere was incredibly harmonious.
As they chatted, Jiang Sheng remembered the factory and the reform of state-owned enterprises, and couldn't help but ask about it out of curiosity.
"By the way, sister, it's been over a month since the state-owned enterprise reform began. How's the reform of our factory going?"
It's fine if this isn't mentioned, but as soon as it comes up, a smile involuntarily appears on Zhao Nianmeng's face.
"Everything is going smoothly. Since my plan for the reform of state-owned enterprises was approved, the factory workers have been very motivated. Each person can earn a lot of money every month, and the factory's output has increased several times as a result."
Thinking back to how every time I arrived at the factory, I was greeted by smiling faces from the workers.
And everyone received a sufficient amount of income, so Zhao Xuehui's smile never stopped.
"That's good!"
Listening to what Zhao Nianmeng said and seeing the smile on her face, Jiang Sheng knew that everything was going very smoothly.
Although everything at the factory was going smoothly, Jiang Sheng was still a little worried about Lin Jiafu.
He wanted to ask directly, which would seem a bit deliberate, but if he didn't ask, he was really worried that Lin Jiafu might cause some trouble.
Just as Jiang Sheng was considering how to steer the conversation toward Lin Jiafu.
Zhao Nianmeng took the initiative to speak.
"By the way, I've already arranged someone for the factory's finance department. She's a very capable young woman who is also very good at computers. She's already replaced Team Leader Lin and is in charge of the entire finance department."
Hearing Zhao Nianmeng's words, Jiang Sheng felt relieved, but still couldn't help asking a question.
"Since she has replaced Team Leader Lin, this young lady must have some skills. Was she personally recruited by you, Big Sister?"
Zhao Nianmeng didn't think much of it and didn't notice the probing in Jiang Sheng's words, so she nodded.
"That's right, I recruited directly from various universities. I sent people to recruit at the gates of each school. There happened to be some recent graduates this year. After a few came, I screened them out and selected this young lady."
Upon hearing the source of the candidates, Jiang Sheng finally felt completely relieved.
It's no wonder he's always been suspicious; it's entirely because Lin Jiafu was cunning and treacherous in his past life, and he was truly afraid of him.
If the finance staff that the eldest sister hires this time is still one of Lin Jiafu's people, then she probably still won't be able to avoid the fate of her previous life.
Only if the person in charge of managing the finances this time is without fault can everything that happened in the previous life be completely avoided.
"Now that there are people in the finance department, what is Team Leader Lin responsible for now? Is he still handling miscellaneous tasks in his workshop?"
After Jiang Sheng finished speaking, fearing that his eldest sister would think he was overthinking things, he added another sentence.
"I think Team Leader Lin is quite talented. It seems a bit of a waste to just make him a team leader in charge of managing miscellaneous tasks. It's like burying a talent."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Nianmeng initially thought that her younger brother still disliked Team Leader Lin.
But after hearing the last sentence and seeing the regret and pity on Jiang Sheng's face, she realized that she had misunderstood him.
"It's not exactly a case of being buried in obscurity."
Zhao Nianmeng breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Although I didn't let him handle the finance department anymore, I let him take charge of the personnel changes, but overall, Lao Zhang, whom I trust more, is still in charge. He's just helping out."
Jiang Sheng had already relaxed, but hearing Zhao Nianmeng's words made his heart jump again.
