The Chen family was overjoyed upon receiving the news. After years of waiting and anticipation, they had finally received a good outcome.
Chen Shiliang accompanied his son to the bureau, where the bureau leaders praised Chen Weimin and encouraged him to focus on his work and creative endeavors.
At the same time, the bureau also called the forest farm and asked them to arrange a lighter job for Chen Weimin so that he wouldn't be too tired and could have more time to read and write.
And so, Chen Weimin was assigned to the field department as a clerk.
Chen Weimin was responsible for all the written materials that needed to be written, speeches for the forest farm's general meetings, and documents that needed to be submitted to the bureau through the forest farm.
If the union has any publicity work to do, they still come to Chen Weimin for help, just like before, to make bulletin boards, write slogans, print materials, etc. Anyway, there isn't too much work.
When I have free time, I can go to the library to read some books, and write something when I get home in the evening.
Chen Weimin was successfully placed in a job, which was a state-owned enterprise worker specially approved by the province, and the treatment was much better than that of workers in large collectives and agricultural and forestry enterprises.
The Chen family was overjoyed and even hosted a banquet, inviting Zheng Xianyong, Zhao Xiangyang, Sheng Xiping, and others to join in the festivities.
"The person you should thank the most for this is Xiping. If he hadn't accompanied Minzi to Shanghai to get a prosthetic leg, where would the temporary worker position have come from?"
Without this temporary worker position, Old Chen, wouldn't you be taking your child everywhere looking for one, only to be turned away at every turn?
The child is constantly being discouraged; how can he have the leisure to write anything?
"Without publishing and winning awards for these novels and poems, where would we get this national worker quota?" Zheng Xianyong said at the banquet.
"Yes, yes, we should thank Xiping properly. Without his constant guidance and encouragement, how could our Minzi be where he is today?" Chen Shiliang nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.
"Xiping, come, let me toast you. Thank you so much. It's all thanks to your advice and help."
"I really don't know how to thank you. I'll drink this one down, but please help yourself."
Chen Shiliang was an honest and simple man, not one for sweet talk. He tilted his head back and downed the wine in his glass in one gulp.
"Oh my uncle, why are you drinking so fast?" Sheng Xiping was shocked. He tilted his head back and drank the wine in his glass as well.
"Actually, there's no need to thank me. It's mainly because Weimin has real talent and ability. Gold will always shine, sooner or later."
Compared to his previous life, Chen Weimin became a worker four years earlier. Moreover, he is now a state-owned enterprise worker, unlike his previous life when he worked in a large collective. The difference is significant.
Sheng Xiping was naturally happy for his friend, but he felt it was inappropriate to attribute all the credit to him.
Even without his help, Chen Weimin's talent would not have been buried, it would just have come later.
"Brother, don't be so polite. I'm truly grateful to you. Um, I'm not a big drinker, so let's just have a casual drink."
Chen Weimin also expressed his gratitude to Sheng Xiping, and they clinked glasses.
Sheng Xiping saw this and thought, "Fine, let's drink." And so, he drank another cup with Chen Weimin and Chen Weiguo.
By the end of the drinking session, everyone in the room was drunk, and they all staggered home and fell asleep immediately.
On July 26th, Sheng Xikang, who was studying away from home, arrived home first.
The next day, Zhou Qinglan and Sheng Xi'an returned, along with Chen Feng and Chen Yue, who were unsurprisingly also present.
These two are on summer vacation and don't want to stay in the provincial capital at all.
They had been eagerly anticipating Zhou Qinglan's holiday, so the two packed their bags and happily headed to Qianchuan Forest Farm.
"Wow, Huahua is at home. Oh my, is this Huahua's baby? So cute! It's so fluffy and fun to play with."
Chen Feng and Chen Yue were overjoyed to see Hua Hua and the two tiger cubs, Jiao Jiao and Zhuang Zhuang.
