Hello everyone, I am Meng Guanglei! From today on, I will be your colleague, please take care of me! "Meng Guanglei greeted everyone fluently and bowed to everyone.
"Wow, you look really energetic, young man! How old are you this year? Do you have a boyfriend?" As the only female engineer in the department, Lin Zhenfang was very concerned about the personal issues of her new colleague.
Meng Guanglei grinned: "I'm 24 years old! Single!"
"You are a young and promising man. I will introduce you to a suitable partner in the future," Lin Zhenfang said to him half-jokingly.
"Okay! I'll trouble you then. Please keep an eye out for me if there is a suitable one."
"Sure, sure."
Director Wang laughed twice and reminded Lin Zhenfang: "Now is the working period, and the content of our discussion should focus on work! Xiao Meng is also new here, and he is not very familiar with the situation in our department. So, since you like this young man so much, let him be your apprentice! You can guide him so that he can get familiar with the working environment as soon as possible and integrate into the team!"
"Don't worry, Director. I will definitely take care of the person."
Director Wang was very satisfied with this answer.
...
...
Meng Guanglei was also very perceptive and immediately called out, "Master!"
After Director Wang left, Lin Zhenfang took Meng Guanglei to familiarize himself with the working environment and work content in the department, and finally took him to meet the colleagues in the department again.
When introducing Jiang Xun, Lin Zhenfang used many words of praise: "This is Jiang Xun. Before you came to our department, he was the youngest guy in our department! Although he is young, he is young and promising. He has solved many problems for our factory in less than half a year. The leaders of the factory attach great importance to him and let him take the lead in developing and researching the loom project. By the way, he is also a retired soldier, so you should have a lot of common topics together!"
Meng Guanglei glanced at Jiang Xun inconspicuously and took the initiative to extend his hand to show his friendliness: "Hello, Brother Jiang! Which unit did you serve in before?"
"Reconnaissance Company of the 70th Division of the 24th Army."
"Oh, Brother Jiang is a scout. Scouts are very powerful. I was a car driver in the motor vehicle company, and later I came into contact with mechanical engineering." Meng Guanglei introduced himself.
"You are also very capable. Let's work together in the future and take care of each other!" Jiang Xun held Meng Guanglei's hand tightly.
Lin Zhenfang was happy: "Look, there are two handsome and energetic young men in our department. If we go out, it will be so impressive!"
After saying hello, Lin Zhenfang took Meng Guanglei to familiarize himself with his work.
Master Qin pulled a stool and sat in front of Jiang Xun: "How are you doing recently? Have you made any progress in your research?"
"Some."
"If you have any questions, just ask me, and try to make the product as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Master. I understand."
Master Qin patted his arm again and said in a low voice, "I heard a rumor that the deputy section chief of our department is about to retire, and the factory wants to promote young people. If it weren't for Meng Guanglei, that position would have belonged to you, but with him...it's hard to say."
Jiang Xun was quite surprised when he heard this: "Master, promotions in this factory have always been based on seniority. I have only been in the factory for a short time, so it is not my turn! Even if Deputy Section Chief Jin retires to the second line, don't you and Engineer Lin still have the young people among them?"
"Engineer Lin and I are not young anymore." Master Qin waved his hand. "I am almost fifty years old. What's young? The country has been mobilizing every ten years. In the past ten years, there have been almost no new people in our department. Xiao Li came in three years ago, but he has no technical level. In fact, he is a worker-for-work! He can't handle design and innovation. After you came, you solved problems for the factory one after another. Therefore, the factory values you very much!"
Jiang Xun thought this was outrageous: "I have only been in the factory for less than half a year."
Master Qin smiled and said, "What are you thinking? Even if you are relegated to the second line as deputy section chief, you still have two years to go! I want you to perform well and strive to get promoted as soon as possible! Once you become an official, all good things will come to you!"
"Thank you, Master. I'll make note of it." Jiang Xun nodded in response.
He thought about it carefully, and this situation was not impossible. After all, Director Han was not very old, only in his thirties or nearly forty years old, and he could become the director, which showed that the factory really wanted to work hard to develop. Appointing people based on their talents was actually a good thing!
"That's good." Seeing that Jiang Xun was quite obedient, Master Qin nodded with satisfaction.
…
After about ten days, the swelling on Ye Li's feet had completely subsided and he was able to walk as normal as before.
Last time she applied for leave, Section Chief Liu first approved her for seven days. Later, he approved her for another five days. After all, because she was young, her injury healed quickly, and she still had two days of leave left.
As it happened, today was another weekend, and Jiang Xun had to work overtime at the factory because he led a research and development team. She thought of making some food and sending it to him at noon, and he would even heat up the leftovers from last night.
Besides, Nie Fan helped a lot in capturing Yuan Yueqin.
Jiang Xun had told her several times before that he wanted to invite Nie Fan to his home for dinner, but in the end, either Nie Fan or Jiang Xun didn't have time. So, Ye Li discussed with Jiang Xun and decided that it would be better to take advantage of the fact that everyone at home was here today and invite Nie Fan to have a meal in public.
Ye Li took some out of the cupboard, then opened the drawer to get some meat coupons to buy a pound of meat to make two big pots of buns.
There was only one meat ticket for half a pound left, so she went directly to her mother-in-law Zhao Xingmei to borrow one.
After going out, small snowflakes began to float in the gloomy sky and the air became moist. Ye Li watched with joy as the small snowflakes changed from small pieces the size of rice grains to large pieces like confetti.
She likes snow, and this is the first snow she has seen since her rebirth.
"Oh, it's snowing! We need to eat dumplings on a snowy day! Let's go buy some meat to make dumplings."
"On a snowy day, you have to eat hot pot. It's steaming hot. That's the best! A whole pound of mutton and a little wine, it's so delicious..."
Two people were walking towards each other in the alley, with their hands tucked into their sleeves, smiling, talking about the weather and food.
Ye Li smiled knowingly and quickened his pace.
Now that it's snowing, more people will be making dumplings at home, and more people will definitely be buying meat. So she has to hurry and line up. She must not go too late, otherwise she won't be able to buy meat.
As soon as she stepped into the supply and marketing cooperative, she saw a group of people queuing in front of the meat counter.
At the same time, there was a group of people queuing on the other side of the counter. She asked the person in front of her and found out that the counter had received live fish and those people were queuing to buy fish.
Ye Li hesitated, wondering whether he should buy a fish and stew it at home.
Suddenly, he saw a man in the crowd looking back at her. He smiled at her with a big mouth and waved happily: "Ye Li, hi, I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."
