Chapter 371 Waiting to Eat Watermelon
The middle-aged man with glasses and a gentle face was the staff member who had just taught the candidate with triangular eyes a lesson outside.
At this moment, he touched his face with a wry smile and asked unhappily: "Little girl, am I old?"
This character!
Chen Kexin immediately understood that it must be this president who had set a trap for the candidates.
Quickly adjusting her mindset, she immediately flattered him, "President, you are young and vigorous, and you have a strong sense of justice. How can you be old? When I say old, I mean respect, not age."
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Sharp-tongued! I saw your profile was recommended by the old lady Bai Tou Weng. What is your relationship with her?"
"President, do you know my uncle? May I ask your name?"
A hint of unnaturalness flashed across the president's face. If it weren't for Chen Kexin's sharp eyes, no one else would have noticed it.
She suddenly remembered the embarrassment when her uncle and master said her name. Could it be that this president and several elders were the same ancestor?
After a moment's hesitation, the president said straightforwardly: "My last name is Dong, you can just call me President Dong from now on. Who is your master?"
winter?
There seem to be very few of them in the Hundred Family Surnames, but there are quite a few Chinese medicine names, such as holly, winter melon peel, and winter melon fruit.
She strongly suspected that President Dong and her master were from the same lineage.
I want to ask, but considering the president's picky personality, forget it. I'll find out when my uncle comes back and ask.
He thought it over quickly and said frankly, "My master's surname is Zhou, and I also have an uncle named Jiang Dayun."
President Dong smiled with relief and continued, "We saw that you actually prepared two kinds of Chinese herbal medicines, and they were well matched. We gave you the highest score. It can be seen that you have a wide range of knowledge. What do you do now?"
Chen Kexin said calmly: "I work at my uncle's Tongrentang!"
"Pharmaceuticals?"
Chen Kexin didn't want her uncle to be criticized by President Dong, nor did she want to lie.
To be honest: "My uncle-in-law is out, the specific work will be decided when she comes back!"
President Dong said sincerely: "The pharmaceutical factory managed by the Chinese Medicine Association is in need of capable pharmacists. I hope you will stay. The salary will definitely satisfy you. You are now a junior pharmacist and you still need to take the intermediate and senior exams. Working here will be beneficial for your future exams. Please consider it."
Chen Kexin suddenly remembered that she was fired from the machinery factory a few days ago and faced the possibility of going to the countryside for re-education. She had no choice but to go find Senior Brother Nine. Thanks to her uncle's words, Senior Brother Nine kindly arranged a temporary job for her at Tongrentang.
Now that her grandfather's matter has been settled, she can go back to work in the machinery factory.
At this moment, after getting the pharmacist certificate, President Dong also extended an olive branch to me.
There are unemployed people everywhere these days, and I actually have three jobs. Why does it feel like I'm dreaming?
Something has to give!
She said tactfully, "President Dong, I haven't been to Tong Ren Tang since the New Year. I want to go there tomorrow to see if my uncle has returned. I want to discuss it with her and then decide."
Now, the status of his uncle-master in his heart has skyrocketed, even surpassing that of his master.
When you have something to do, you go to your uncle for help, but now you turn around and try to get a higher position. Isn't that ungrateful?
I must discuss this with my uncle before making a decision.
President Dong looked disappointed. He adjusted his glasses and quickly remembered something and said, "Why bother? I'll call your uncle tomorrow to discuss it."
Chen Kexin could tell that President Dong had a good relationship with her uncle.
"good!"
President Dong picked up the desktop phone on his desk and dialed a number.
There was a "beep" sound from the microphone soon, and then the sound disappeared and the call was connected.
"Excuse me, has Senior Sister Bai returned?"
Chen Kexin's eyes suddenly lit up. Her guess was correct. President Dong was indeed from the same sect as her.
It seems that he has a good relationship with his uncle!
A very soft voice came from the microphone, "Master, someone is looking for you!"
Logically speaking, ordinary people cannot hear the voice on the other side of the microphone.
Chen Kexin has keen senses, and the microphone is leaking air, so even though the voice on the other end was not loud, she could still hear it vaguely.
Soon, President Dong heard a familiar voice on the other side of the microphone and said loudly: "Senior sister, you are still so amazing. You have trained an excellent pharmacist."
"Are you saying that Ke Xin got good grades in the exam?"
"Not only did she pass the exam, she also ranked first. I think it's a waste to leave her to do odd jobs at your Tong Ren Tang. I want her to work as a technician at a pharmaceutical factory. What do you think?"
On the other side of the phone, Master Bai's overbearing and angry voice came, "Who said that girl was doing odd jobs at Tong Ren Tang? I want to stay and make medicine, okay? You have a lot of technicians in your pharmaceutical factory, don't you know why they don't produce any results? It's because there are too many bullshit things. Ke Xin is with you, right? Let her answer the phone."
President Dong was embarrassed and explained awkwardly: "Senior sister, your temper has not changed at all over the years. You belittled the pharmaceutical factory so badly. Isn't this a slap in my face?"
"You're not a fool. Don't you know what's going on? Is that girl Ke Xin here?"
President Dong said in a helpless tone: "She's here! I'll give her the microphone right now."
Chen Kexin smiled secretly in her heart, Master is awesome!
Taking the microphone, she said sweetly: "Master, you are back?"
On the other side of the microphone, the tone of the overbearing uncle softened significantly, becoming a little gentler, "I'm back! Come over tomorrow, your master is coming back with me!"
Chen Kexin found that she was very lucky these days and received good news continuously.
Having been away from the county town for several months, she was of course concerned about everything in her hometown and also missed her master who had been so kind to her.
At the same time, he muttered in his heart: Could it be that my uncle likes this old man, my master? Will it take so long for water to wear away the stone?
She grinned and said, "Okay, I'll come over after breakfast tomorrow!"
When she finished speaking, she handed over the microphone.
President Dong took the microphone and said sadly, "Senior sister, I will never get any advantage if I'm with you, so I won't compete with you for people anymore."
On the other side of the microphone, the white-headed old man said proudly: "That's good to know. You can't beat me!"
After ending the call, President Dong looked at Chen Kexin with a wry smile and said, "From now on, you can call me Uncle Dong. Your master and uncle are brothers from the same school!"
Sure enough, my guess was correct!
She nodded readily and said, "Hello, Uncle Dong!"
"good!"
Chen Kexin looked at Uncle Dong's deflated face, and the gossip fire in her heart suddenly burned fiercely.
Mustering up the courage to ask tentatively: "Uncle Dong, my master has also returned with my uncle. My uncle is so beautiful, why is she still alone?"
Uncle Dong's face suddenly changed, and he asked anxiously, "What? Your master is here too?"
Only then did Chen Kexin realize that she had super hearing, but this Master Dong was just an ordinary person.
Uncle Dong obviously didn't hear what his uncle said to him just now.
She deliberately added fuel to the fire and said, "Yes, that's what my uncle said just now!"
Uncle Dong said gloomily, "I'll go there tomorrow too..."
I quickly thought of something and said, "I'll drive over now, do you want to come?"
If there is a convenient ride available, of course you should seize the opportunity.
Chen Kexin opened her mouth to express her gratitude, "Thank you, Uncle Master!"
As for the old accounts between several people, let them deal with them themselves.
The gossip fire in my heart is burning again. It seems that Uncle Dong is also interested in Uncle?
Get the melon seeds ready and wait to eat them.
