"Since you think this way, then I think it's normal for Tang Xiaoxiao to leave you and not see you. No family would treat their daughter as a thing. Only you think that way. I want to see if she will come back."
Shen Jiaojiao got up with the lunch box and was about to go in when Shen Wenwu walked past her first. She looked in the direction of Shen Wenwu. Wasn't he very agitated just now?
Why did you leave on your own without Shen Jiaojiao's consent?
He wouldn't give up so easily, right?
Shen Jiaojiao didn't care about that much. She wished he wouldn't come again. She hoped that no one from the Shen family would appear in front of her again. She would feel sick if she looked at them for even a second.
She packed up her things after work because she had to go to the retirement home to see the old man today.
I gave him so many stocks last night, and now he should get the results. I don’t know how he will react. I’m afraid his heart can’t take it.
As soon as Shen Jiaojiao came out, she ran into Jiang Guofu. He was completely different from the previous time she met him. He smiled more often, and was in high spirits and very happy.
"Congratulations, Director Jiang."
Jiang Guofu smiled and said, "Jiaojiao, don't congratulate me. If it weren't for what you said in front of the dean, I'm afraid I would still be in the archives. This is all thanks to you."
"No, no, the dean knows it all in his heart. Otherwise, no matter how much I say, it will be useless. You are the one who is capable."
Both of them were very humble. Jiang Guofu was in a good mood today and took the initiative to invite Shen Jiaojiao to his home for dinner.
"Don't refuse me."
Shen Jiaojiao was worried about the old man. "Director Jiang, I don't want to refuse, but I really can't today. I have to go back to see grandpa. You know Di Jingzhuo is not here now, so I am the only one by grandpa's side."
Jiang Guofu knew very well that in a family like the Chen family, there must be someone to take care of the old man.
"Jiaojiao, I won't take up much of your time. You have to come with me no matter what I say today."
Seeing how sincere he was, Shen Jiaojiao couldn't refuse.
She followed Jiang Guofu to his home. Jiang Guofu's home was relatively remote. He said it was cheaper there and there were people he knew around. It was a very familiar environment. It was just inconvenient during work hours, but those were minor problems. He could just treat it as a walk.
When I arrived at the place where he lived, it was very crowded. At first glance, it was full of houses, and each space was very small. Even if you said something from a distance, it might be heard in his house.
Jiang Guofu's house was decorated very simply. Shen Jiaojiao had already noticed it when she came in just now. Many women were cooking or chatting together.
"Wait for me first," Jiang Guofu asked Shen Jiaojiao to sit down, and then he walked outside. Not long after, he brought back a woman with fluffy hair and an apron. It was Jiang Guofu's wife Yang Yue.
When Yang Yue saw Shen Jiaojiao, she immediately went forward and held her hand, her eyes red.
"Doctor Shen, thank you so much for this. If it weren't for you, I, Old Jiang, would have been stuck in the archives for the rest of my life."
She was laid off many years ago and later became a housewife. Now they have two children, one is in his teens and the younger one is seven or eight years old.
The whole family depended on Jiang Guofu's salary to live. When he went to the archives room, not only his status was lower, but his salary was also lower. He had no way to support such a large family.
Fortunately, with the help of Shen Jiaojiao, they have now returned to normal life.
Jiang Guofu also urged her, "Don't say these things anymore, hurry up and prepare the food, don't let Doctor Shen wait anxiously, I finally got her here."
"I'll go right away." Yang Yue worked very efficiently. While Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Guofu were chatting, she prepared several dishes. Shen Jiaojiao felt a little uncomfortable seeing the rich food.
"You are too polite. Why did you get so much?"
"Doctor Shen, it's rare for you to come to our house for a meal." Jiang Guofu gave the child money to buy a bottle of wine. Just as Shen Jiaojiao was about to stop him, he started talking about work. "Doctor Shen, although you haven't been here as long as me, you are so smart, I believe you should have noticed that our director is just good at talking, but he is fussy and slow in doing other things."
Shen Jiaojiao wanted to laugh a little bit because of what he said, but it was indeed the case.
Just take the construction of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine as an example. From the time Shen Jiaojiao came until now, if she really wanted to, it would have been completed long ago. There would not be problems like this, with problems here and there.
Jiang Guofu sighed, "Don't blame me for being sarcastic. They're not targeting you. They just don't want to waste time on this. Think about it, our hospital is most famous for Western medicine. If Traditional Chinese Medicine is established, wouldn't you steal the limelight?"
Not only that, there will be many Western doctors who will also cause trouble for Shen Jiaojiao. If the situation is not serious, they may just say a few words, but if they really can't stand it, they may even make trouble for her behind her back.
He was also doing this for Shen Jiaojiao's own good and didn't want her to take any risks.
Chen Jiaojiao, however, thought Jiang Guofu was being ungrateful. "Director Jiang, do you mean to abandon this matter halfway and not care about it anymore?" She paused and looked at him. "Or do you mean you don't want to care either?"
Jiang Guofu hesitated for a moment, unwilling to deceive her. He still valued Shen Jiaojiao very much, "Jiaojiao, look at our family situation. I am already very satisfied with having a stable job. I really don't dare to expect anything else. I'm just afraid that if I stand up, they will point the spearhead at me, just like this time. What should I do?"
The children finished eating. It had probably been a long time since they had eaten such delicious food, so they ate it all up. Shen Jiaojiao also saw the sadness in Yang Yue's eyes.
"This time, I was made a data clerk in the archives. I'm lucky. At least I can stay in the hospital. If I really anger those people, I'm afraid they will find a way to kick me out. I can't always count on you to help me, right?"
"Director Jiang, this isn't just my opinion. Didn't the dean agree?"
"He agreed, but there are other leaders. The dean may not be watching here every day. We are the ones who know best whether those people are doing anything. The time you and I have with the dean can't compare to them, right?"
Shen Jiaojiao knew what he was worried about, but she didn't have the ability to ask the dean to cancel it.
