Chapter 1293: Hypocrisy of Adults
On Monday afternoon, before leaving get off work, Li Ye said to Huang Mengjia, "I'm going to attend a wedding tomorrow, so I won't be coming to work. Remember to record one day of personal leave for me on the attendance sheet!"
"Ah? Personal leave?"
Huang Mengjia looked at Li Ye in surprise, then asked in a low voice: "Director, are you sure you want to record it as personal leave?"
Li Ye asked in surprise: "What's so uncertain about this?"
But then Li Ye understood that Huang Mengjia was reminding him that if he took a leave of absence, he would lose his full attendance bonus for this month.
The attendance bonus of the first branch is very high, especially for office staff like Huang Mengjia, who care a lot about it because they are not like the front-line workers who can live a full life by relying on piece-rate wages.
So everyone should try not to take leave if possible, and try to squeeze in work on Sunday if they have something to do.
However, leaders like Li Ye who are in charge of operations and sales can go out to "coordinate business" anytime and anywhere, and no one will give him a real attendance check, so the full attendance bonus is basically paid every month.
But now Li Ye asked to record personal leave on the attendance sheet, which would definitely result in a loss of dozens of dollars, so Huang Mengjia confirmed it with a wry smile.
Li Ye smiled lightly, then said with a straight face: "Don't you know that this is an extraordinary period? If I ask you to take personal leave, then take personal leave and don't cause trouble for me."
Huang Mengjia chuckled and said, "I understand, Director. I'll make a note of it for you."
After Li Ye left, two other girls from the same office came over.
"Sister Huang, what does Director Li mean by extraordinary times? I heard that Director Lu and Director Li embarrassed Lao Niu at the meeting the day before yesterday. Is Lao Niu going to take revenge on us?"
"Yes, Sister Huang, I heard that Lao Niu's relative Niu Fenhua was crying and making a scene in Niu Hongzhang's office yesterday. Lao Niu will definitely not let it go. Maybe he is planning something strange!"
"Yes, yes, yes, I heard about it too. Niu Fenhua relied on being Lao Niu's niece to walk around the forging workshop like a tyrant. This time, she was removed from her easy job as a piece-rate clerk and asked to do forging. It's like asking her to die."
“.”
"Alright, alright, stop imagining. Even if Lao Niu wants to cause trouble, he won't blame you two small fish and shrimps. You don't deserve it. Besides, when have you ever seen our Director Li suffer a loss?"
Huang Mengjia laughed and scolded a few times, then said: "But then again, we can't hold Director Li back. Check your own mistakes in the next few days and make up for them as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, we never do anything messy, and we can withstand investigation."
"Yes, yes, yes. We can withstand the scrutiny, but Lao Niu may not. I've heard that there are hundreds of people at the headquarters who want to put pressure on Lao Niu, and he's too busy to handle it all."
“.”
Some things are likely to ferment. The rumor that Li Ye wanted to "keep an eye on Niu Hongzhang" became more and more intense, and many people began to wonder whether they should follow suit.
But just when I was leaving get off work, a notice suddenly appeared on the bulletin board of the Light Automobile Company.
The content of the notice is to establish a new disciplinary supervision model within the entire unit. Public supervision and reporting must be done in a special department, and it is strictly forbidden to make groundless accusations or create trouble without reason.
"Why? In the past, Lao Niu was in charge of discipline and he would make a big deal out of every little thing. Now that Director Li has given him some advice, why doesn't he just accept it with an open mind? He even issued a notice to prohibit everyone from making groundless accusations? Was Niu Fenhua's case also groundless accusations?"
"That's right, he should have done a self-examination at the factory-wide meeting and strictly admitted his mistakes."
"It's really like the governor is allowed to set fires but the people are not allowed to light lamps. If they can collect their own letters of complaint, then why should we report them?"
“.”
When this notice came out, many people were surprised and began to speak up for Li Ye.
But anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Niu Hongzhang had suffered a crushing defeat this time.
If he really had the humility to examine himself at the factory meeting, then he was truly strict with himself and upright.
Unfortunately, he has become accustomed to the privileges of a superior over the years and is no longer able to bring himself to admit his mistakes to his fellow workers.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Tuesday, August 24, 1991, the 18th day of the seventh lunar month.
Suitable for: getting married, offering sacrifices, praying for blessings, seeking offspring, tailoring, getting married, building, bringing in new people, meeting relatives and friends
Taboo: funerals, burials, travel, building beams, raising livestock, felling trees, and building bridges.
The reason why Li Ye took a day off today was to attend the wedding of his college classmate Chen Xiaoling.
Early in the morning, before dawn, Li Ye brought his two children to Chen Xiaoling's residence.
The sleepy Xiaodou'er was reluctant to come at first, but when Li Ye told her that she could stop at the door later and "ask for a red envelope", she immediately perked up.
As soon as the three of them arrived at the scene, they immediately attracted many people's friendly ridicule.
"Hey, look at this guy who ruined the idea of having children later in life. When he enrolled in D, why didn't we ask him to write a letter of guarantee that he would comply with national policies?"
"Hahahaha, you are envious! Other people's children are already doing soy sauce, but your child is still breastfeeding."
"Go away, go away, I'm better at breastfeeding than you, if you're capable, ask your workaholic wife to give birth to a child for you."
In terms of age, Li Ye was at the bottom of the class, but he got married right after graduation. Among his classmates, he was definitely a typical example of early marriage and early childbearing, which was indeed not in line with the national policy at the time.
But when everyone saw a pair of cute little babies running around, they were so envious.
In particular, some classmates who don’t have children yet are particularly fond of Xiaobaoer and Xiaodouer.
For example, Zhen Rongrong.
Like Chen Xiaoling, Zhen Rongrong is one year older than Li Ye and is about to turn thirty, but she doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
Over the years, Li Ye also tried to introduce Zhen Rongrong to someone else, but she always refused calmly. In the end, Li Ye almost had the wrong idea.
[I went to the lighthouse. Is there something wrong with my brain? 】
"Li Ye, hahahahahahaha, I miss you so much"
Li Ye was just thinking about it! Suddenly, a man walked in from outside and opened his arms to Li Ye, obviously wanting to give Li Ye a warm hug.
Li Ye looked at the other person in surprise and didn't recognize him for a moment.
Two seconds later, Li Ye's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
It turned out to be He Dazhuang.
He is He Dazhuang, who was knocked down by Li Ye and then practiced martial arts hard with the martial arts club, hoping to avenge Li Ye.
He Dazhuang was already quite sturdy at that time, but now he has gained three times more weight, especially his big belly, which is particularly conspicuous.
Seeing that Li Ye was a little dazed, He Dazhuang walked over with a laugh and hugged Li Ye. If you didn't know about the past between them, you would think they were brothers who had shared life and death together!
“.”
Li Ye sighed softly, and reached out and hugged him gently, as a polite response.
Li Ye had a similar experience at a class reunion in his previous life. Those classmates who used to not get along well with each other became very friendly when they met again.
Some people say that this is a sign of middle-aged people apologizing for their childish behavior in their youth, but Li Ye believes that this is the hypocrisy of adults, which overshadows the sincerity in everyone's heart.
