Xiao Xue's face fell instantly, and he pointed at Qin Hanshu and said to the people around him: "Our cafeteria is crowded and small, and there are still people like this sneaking in, and no one is in charge!"

This remark touched everyone's heart, and someone immediately echoed Qin Hanshu and said, "Comrade, which unit are you from? This cafeteria is not open to the public."

"Yeah, forget it today, but don't come over next time."

Xiao Xue was not satisfied with the gentle attitude of the people around her towards Qin Hanshu. She hoped that everyone would unite against the enemy and it would be best if Qin Hanshu could be driven out on the spot.

She was about to open her mouth to provoke a few more words when she heard Qin Hanshu say, "I know the cafeteria is not open to the public, and I am not an outsider."

A man asked with interest: "I'm from the Machinery Import and Export Company. Which unit are you from?"

Qin Hanshu said: "I'm from the department store."

"Impossible!" Xiao Xue screamed in disbelief, "I've been in the department store for several years and have never seen you! You liar! Are you willing to lie to others just to get a free meal? You have a moral problem!"

Xiao Xue's colleague pulled her sleeve, but Xiao Xue ignored it.

There are more than 2,000 employees in the department store, and not everyone knows each other. But it just so happens that the pastry counter where Xiao Xue stands is opposite the elevator, and she stares at the elevator every day when she has nothing to do, and she has become familiar with the faces.

She was sure that she had never seen Qin Hanshu.

Qin Hanshu glanced at her and said, "Your last name is Xue, right? Let me introduce myself. My last name is Qin. I just joined the Labor and Personnel Department today. I hope you can give me your guidance in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yingxia's voice was heard from the other side.

"Xiao Qin, we have found a seat, come over as soon as you get the food."

Qin Hanshu responded, then took the lunch box handed to him by the chef and squeezed out of the crowd.

Xiao Xue was still standing there in a daze until Qin Hanshu had left for a while.

The colleague next to her turned his head back and said, "The person she had dinner with was Aunt Wu from the Labor and Personnel Department. She didn't lie. Duoyan, why did you bother with a stranger for no reason? Now you've offended her."

Xue Duoyan came back to her senses, her face pale, but she still said, "What are you afraid of? Are the people in the Labor and Personnel Department so great?"

The colleague laughed dryly and wanted to say yes, but felt that there was no need to argue with Xue Duoyan about this.

Xue Duoyan: "And it's not me who wants to go against her, she was the one who provoked me first!"

The colleague asked curiously: "How did she provoke you?"

Xue Duoyan: "I was criticized by my manager last week because of her!"

The colleague nodded in understanding. Xue Duoyan had an argument with a customer last week, and her manager criticized her as an example at a meeting, and also deducted her bonus for this month.

It turns out that the customer became the staff of the Labor and Personnel Department.

A colleague suggested: "Why don't you apologize to her and mend the relationship?"

Xue Duoyan sneered: "You wish! I'm not afraid of her making things difficult for me."

The colleague said nothing more. Anyone who could enter the First Department Store had some background, and maybe Xue Duoyan had a strong background and was not afraid of anything.

***

As soon as Qin Hanshu sat down, Wu Yingxia asked, "Did you have an argument with someone over there just now?"

Qin Hanshu recounted the entire story, including what happened when he bought calcium milk biscuits last week.

Sister Zheng said, "Xue Duoyan from the pastry counter? She is a well-known hot-tempered girl, and anyone dares to say something to her."

Qin Hanshu smiled, "So amazing?"

Sister Zheng nodded. "Otherwise, how could she stand out among hundreds of salespeople? Everyone in the company must have heard of her name."

Sister Zheng curled her lips and shook her head, obviously not liking Xue Duoyan's reputation.

There is a break after lunch, so many people in the office take a nap on their desks.

Qin Hanshu was not sleepy. She looked at the information Wu Yingxia gave her, wanting to familiarize herself with the work as quickly as possible.

After looking for an unknown amount of time, she finally raised her sore neck and rubbed her eyes.

On the windowsill next to her was a pot of bottle orchid, which was grown by Wu Yingxia.

Qin Hanshu asked: "Sister Wu, where did you get this wine bottle orchid? I also want to grow a potted plant."

Wu Yingxia glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so she leaned close to Qin Hanshu's ear and said, "Do you know Jinma Town? It's close to the river on the east. There's a market in the woods by the river on the first and fifteenth of every month, selling flowers, birds, fish and insects."

Now that it cannot be bought and sold privately, this set is obviously on the black market.

Qin Hanshu said: "I live in Jinma Town, but I didn't know there was such a market."

Wu Yingxia remembered, "Oh, you are a military dependent, there are indeed troops stationed there."

Qin Hanshu: "I'll go check it out later. If you need anything, just tell me and I'll buy it for you on the way."

Wu Yingxia smiled, "You're right, there really is one. My little granddaughter wants a little goldfish, and I'm waiting for it to go on sale. If it's convenient for you, buy it for me. I'm just too lazy to go."

Qin Han agreed quickly, "No problem."

Wu Yingxia suddenly mentioned Xue Duoyan, "You, don't take her too seriously, just do your job well, there's no need to worry about these things."

Qin Hanshu's heart moved. Wu Yingxia mentioned this specifically, and it was obvious that there was some meaning behind it.

The First Department Store is a unit that many people dream of working in, and everyone who can come in has complicated relationships.

Xue Duoyan is a high-profile person, which shows that she has a certain confidence behind her.

Qin Hanshu thanked Wu Yingxia and said, "Thank you, Sister Wu, for reminding me. I know. I won't get angry with her for such a small matter."

Wu Yingxia nodded with satisfaction. "That's right. As long as it doesn't involve issues of principle, it's better to do less than more, which is beneficial to our work."

Wu Yingxia seemed to be in a good mood and passed on her life experience to Qin Hanshu. She did not stop until it was time to go to work, feeling unsatisfied.

He got off work at five in the afternoon, which was very early, but the journey took a long time, so Qin Hanshu got home at six forty.

There was no time to cook, and she was just about to go to the cafeteria to buy some food when the door of Qin Feiyang's house opened and asked her and Zhou Weiguang to go in and eat.

Maybe Zhou Weiguang has more things to do, so he gets off work later than Qin Feiyang every day and hasn't returned home yet.

Qin Hanshu didn't hesitate and agreed, saying that he would come over after washing his hands.

As soon as she washed her hands and walked out of the house, a disheveled woman ran down the stairs, crying and shouting, "Someone is hitting someone—"
