The walls dried a bit in the evening, and Su Dazhi and Liu Mei couldn't wait to move their little nest into the partitioned room. It was a partitioned room, but it could only fit a bed about 1.3 meters wide against the wall. They simply lifted the curtain and slipped on their shoes to get into bed.
Because the space was too cramped, the wooden bed that the two of them had been sleeping in was no longer usable, so they moved to the bed that Su Zhi and Su Lin had been sleeping in.
Liu Mei and Su Dazhi had no complaints about this; as a couple, they were already quite satisfied to have such a secluded space.
It's better than squeezing in with everyone else like before.
Su Yu sat on her spacious bed, watching Su Dazhi and Liu Mei move in and draw the curtains. Looking at the empty space beside her bed, she felt much more relaxed and at ease.
They should have put that couple by the gate a long time ago.
Su Zhi and Su Lin also had satisfied smiles on their faces. They got to eat dumplings for free, and their sleeping place was spacious enough for the night.
Things are finally looking up.
The next morning, when Su Yu got up, she found that the whole family was up. Some were cooking, some were doing laundry, and even Su Dazhi and Su Zhi, who usually liked to sleep in, were up early and had tidied up the room neatly.
Su Yu yawned; yesterday's dumplings hadn't been a waste. The horse had indeed eaten grass and was running faster.
This morning, Su Yu ate corn porridge with everyone, but she had an extra egg compared to the others. Now, to help her get proper nutrition, each egg is basically a fixed amount.
Over time, everyone gradually formed a routine and didn't feel that anything was wrong with it.
Anyway, I only eat eggs because I'm not feeling well.
On the way to work, Su Yu patted Su Zhi on the shoulder again, "Zhi, I will definitely find you a job."
Su Zhi: "...Sis, I believe you." Sis, can you please stop bragging?
Su Yu said, "Let's not talk to them yet. Otherwise, they'll be envious and jealous."
Su Zhi nodded. If too many people find out and it fails, it'll be incredibly embarrassing.
Su Dazhi nodded in agreement.
It's rare for the two brothers to be on the same page. Don't make your sister too embarrassed. Anyway, this is the only time in all these years that I've ever made such a boastful statement. It was all out of good intentions.
Su Yu squinted at her two good-natured brothers. Seeing their open expressions, she knew that these two brats didn't believe her.
However, she didn't expect people to believe her so easily.
I told them in advance, just so they would have a general idea, and that if things went well later, they would know how powerful she was.
She never does favors for others without being a hero.
"Su Yu, the factory committee has notified you to come in for a talk."
Su Yu had just arrived at the office when she heard Director Xu's announcement.
Looking at the time, there are still twenty minutes before work starts. The factory committee members are quite proactive in their work.
She asked curiously, "Director Xu, do you know what this is about? I haven't done anything wrong recently."
"Who knows? No way," Director Xu shook her head, a hint of worry in her voice. After all, when Officer Tian came to see her before, his expression was unreadable.
Su Yu frowned inwardly. The factory committee hadn't informed Director Xu beforehand? That didn't make sense. Director Xu was her superior; any transfers or anything like that would definitely require prior notice.
Unable to figure it out, Su Yu stopped thinking about it and decided to deal with whatever came her way.
When Su Yu arrived at the factory committee office, several staff members were tidying up the tables inside. The senior staff member, Gao Ke, whom Su Yu had met before, was drinking tea. Seeing Su Yu arrive, he smiled and said, "Oh, isn't this Comrade Su Yu?"
Because of the things Su Yu had done to make him proud, he now found Su Yu quite agreeable. "How's your studies going? If you encounter any difficulties, come find us. My position is specifically for training talent for the factory. You are one of our reserve talents."
Su Yu smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, leader. Everything is fine."
Upon hearing the title "leader," Officer Gao felt a surge of excitement, almost bursting into laughter, but ended up choking on his tea.
Su Yu: "..."
Officer Tian rolled his eyes at Officer Gao, feeling somewhat displeased that he had embarrassed the factory committee. Then, looking at Su Yu, he said, "Comrade Su Yu, I've called you here today because I have something to discuss with you. The union is planning to promote you to be in charge of propaganda work, and we want to know your personal wishes."
Hearing this, Su Yu looked surprised, then said with delight, "I have no objection, I'll follow the factory's arrangements."
Officer Tian coughed, then stood up and pulled Su Yu outside the office. "It's like this, actually our leaders have also looked at your information. We're the factory committee, much better than the trade union, right? I think you can wait a bit longer, and come directly to our factory committee when we recruit workers in a while."
"..." Su Yu stared blankly at Officer Tian, then cursed inwardly. "Do they think we're idiots?"
You're really something, making me give up a job I worked so hard for with just one sentence.
Seeing Su Yu's dazed expression, Officer Tian felt that his words might have had no effect, and continued to persuade her, "I'm doing this for your own good. After all, you are talented and capable. You should work in a more important position. The factory committee is a good place, and I guarantee that as long as you take the exam, based on your previous performance, you will definitely be able to get in."
“Officer Tian, actually I’m not that capable. It took me a long time to write those articles. You and I are both so old, if we were really so capable, why didn’t we make our mark earlier? The factory committee is such an important department, how could I dare to hold you back? It’s rare that the trade union doesn’t look down on me. As the saying goes, a scholar will die for one who understands him. I feel that if I don’t go, I would be letting them down.”
