533: You can return to the city
Lin Xiaorong scratched the place where she was hit and said unconvincedly:
"All the teachers and students in our school know about it. Why can't we say it?"
Chu Lan was also afraid that the child would go out and talk too much, so he glared at Lin Xiaorong:
"What others say is their business, you can't say it."
Deputy Director Lin said to Chu Lan unhappily:
"You just need to say less normally. If you don't say anything, how will they know?"
Chu Lan was also a little dissatisfied and muttered a few words under his breath.
The family finished their meal noisily.
After dinner, Chu Lan left the task of cleaning up the dishes to Old Lady Lin, and returned to his room to complain to Deputy Director Lin again:
"This guy surnamed Zhou is really ruthless. On the surface, he transferred people back from the logging company, but in reality, he was trying to torment them. He even refused to let them take their family leave. Xiaobai is really unlucky."
Deputy Director Lin said dissatisfiedly:
"How do you know that Director Zhou deliberately tormented Xiaobai? If you don't know, don't talk nonsense!"
"This is no nonsense. Otherwise, why would they suddenly stop allowing family leave? What important work could the Propaganda Department do that would require Xiaobai so much?"
Deputy Director Lin was speechless.
There really isn't any work that Xiaobai has to do recently.
Deputy Director Lin couldn't understand why Director Zhou suddenly didn't let Xiaobai go back.
But Deputy Director Lin felt that based on his understanding of Zhou Ziheng over the past three years, Zhou Ziheng was definitely not secretly targeting Xiaobai.
If Zhou Ziheng was unhappy with someone, he would kill them openly and honestly. He would not pinch someone secretly when they were not paying attention like children fighting.
The couple talked for a while in the room. Lin Darong came in worriedly and pleaded with a sad face:
"Dad, can you think of a way to stop Director Zhou from tormenting Xiaobai? Xiaobai is too pitiful!"
Chu Lan was afraid that her daughter would anger Deputy Director Lin, because Deputy Director Lin and the mother and daughter were not on the same page about this matter.
Although Deputy Director Lin did not object to Xiaobai becoming their son-in-law, he did not quite agree with the mother and daughter's persistent tactics.
So Chu Lan hurried to persuade:
“Da Rong, don’t worry, there are benefits to Xiao Bai not returning to the city to visit relatives.
At least through this incident, Xiaobai can completely see the true face of Director Zhou.
Let him know that if he continues to stay on the farm, he will definitely suffer.
Maybe he will suddenly come to his senses and be willing to marry you?
So, the more Zhou messes with Xiaobai, the better it is for us."
Lin Darong's eyes lit up and her mind opened up instantly: Yes, why didn't I think of this!
Mom is so right. Let Director Zhou torment Xiaobai a few times, and Xiaobai will know how good their family is!
Maybe he'll be willing to marry her soon!
In that case, let Director Zhou give Xiaobai a hard time.
The more trouble she makes, the sooner Xiaobai will marry her.
Thinking of this, Lin Darong no longer felt distressed. Now she was just waiting for Xiaobai to suddenly come to her house and ask to marry her one day.
For this purpose, Lin Darong had already taken out the household registration booklet of her family and placed it on the top of the drawer in advance so that she would not lose it when she needed it.
Lin Darong daydreams at home every day, waiting for the day when Bai Zongdan wakes up.
Bai Zongdan, however, waits for his fate in anxiety every day.
The other educated youth in the propaganda team have returned to the city to visit their families, leaving only a few people on the farm to be on duty.
One day, he was designing a promotional poster in the office when Yu Xiaoye suddenly came to him:
"Xiaobai, the manager wants to see you and asks you to come over."
When Bai Zongdan heard that the director was looking for him, the anxiety that had been accumulating for several days finally reached its peak.
He put down the pencil in his hand and stood up silently.
Yu Xiaoye said to him in a very cheerful tone:
"Don't worry, it's a good thing."
After hearing this, Bai Zongdan raised his eyes and looked at Yu Xiaoye.
Yu Xiaoye's eyes were shining, and there was a smile on her face. Her whole body was filled with the youth and vitality of a girl, which made people unconsciously infected and their mood improved.
Yu Xiaoye said:
"I'm not lying to you. This is really a good thing. Don't be afraid. Just go ahead."
Bai Zongdan's gloomy heart gradually brightened, as if a ray of sunlight suddenly shone through the dark clouds in the sky.
He believed what Yu Xiaoye said. If Yu Xiaoye said it was a good thing, then it must be a good thing.
Bai Zongdan was not expecting anything good to happen, but at least it made him feel less anxious.
He left the auditorium and went to the office building next door.
Along the way, my steps were lighter than before.
When we arrived at the director's office, we found that in addition to Director Zhou and Secretary Jiang, there was also a man and a woman.
The man looked to be in his thirties or forties and didn't look like he was from this place. Bai Zongdan didn't recognize him.
The other woman was about twenty years old and was an educated youth on the farm. Bai Zongdan had seen her before. When he first came to the farm, he was assigned to an agricultural company in a branch farm. This female educated youth seemed to be in the same company with him.
But the two never spoke to each other. After Bai Zongdan was transferred from the agricultural company, he never saw this female educated youth again, and he didn't know her name.
When Bai Zongdan suddenly saw this man and woman in the office, he was confused.
He glanced at the two men and walked straight to Zhou Ziheng's desk.
Without waiting for Bai Zongdan to speak, Zhou Ziheng stood up and introduced the middle-aged man:
"Comrade Zhang, this is another person, Bai Zongdan, a great talent on our farm."
The middle-aged man called Comrade Zhang also stood up, looked Bai Zongdan up and down, nodded slightly, and then said to Zhou Ziheng with a little embarrassment:
"Director Zhou, you must explain this matter clearly to Director Jia."
"Don't worry, I've already told Director Jia that it was his brother who rejected the job offer, and he also expressed his understanding.
Jie, he won't make things difficult for you when you go back."
"That'll do."
Bai Zongdan heard Director Zhou talking to that person in a strange way, and finally couldn't help asking:
"Captain, what's going on?"
Zhou Ziheng picked up a stack of documents on the table and handed them to Bai Zongdan:
"Here's your file, personnel information, and transfer letter. Keep them safe. The Beijing Construction Bureau is looking for two positions, and you're one of them."
Bai Zongdan seemed not to understand:
"Captain, what do you mean?"
Zhou Ziheng put it succinctly:
"You can return to the city now."
“!!!”
Bai Zongdan opened his mouth wide and stared at Zhou Ziheng in disbelief, feeling like he was dreaming.
Return to the city?
The return to the city that countless educated youths dreamed of actually happened to him quietly!
This is why the director asked him not to go back to the city to visit his relatives for the time being. It turns out that he wanted to process the recruitment procedures for him!
After realizing this, Bai Zongdan's eyes were filled with tears.
He took the documents handed to him by Zhou Ziheng with great gratitude, but his throat was choked and he couldn't say a word.
Zhou Ziheng looked at Bai Zongdan, who pursed her lips and tried hard not to cry, and said in a soft voice:
"This time, the Beijing Construction Bureau is recruiting, so you should report directly to Beijing and work there. If you want to return to your own city, you can transfer on your own. I can only help you up to this point—don't thank me, thank Xiaoye. She was the one who helped you get it."
