Jiang Jun was a little unhappy because she had just had a difficult communication with Chen Yuanwu on the phone. She didn't realize that she had begun to care about Chen Yuanwu's past.
Hearing Chen Jing's scolding, Jiang Jun walked out the door. He was originally thinking of Li Caixia, but when he raised his eyes suddenly, he saw a flash of contempt on Xiao Xingxing's face.
Jiang Jun suddenly became a little angry, frowned, took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth, and started coughing hard half-seriously and half-pretendingly.
Chen Jing was about to go forward but stopped, extremely nervous: "Sister Yun, you are coughing so badly, go to the hospital immediately, don't delay."
She still vividly remembers the time when she saw her elder brother being issued a critical illness notice due to pneumonia.
Jiang Jun coughed and waved his hands: "It's okay, I'm fine now. Please sit down and I'll go cook for you."
Xiao Xingxing quickly took a step back: "I should go back now. Martial law will be imposed soon."
Chen Jing steeled herself and didn't retreat, glaring at Li Caixia. "Hurry up and take my sister Yun to the hospital for treatment. And keep your voice down! Don't make so much noise that everyone in the street will know you're coming from a distance!"
Li Caixia was so flustered by the scolding that she clutched the hem of her clothes with both hands and laughed awkwardly: "Uh, I, I won't yell. I'll go pack my things and go to the hospital with Teacher Jiang."
"Sister Yun, I just came to tell you about the martial law outside. Wait for my call at home!" Chen Jing said hello to Jiang Yun with impatience, glared at Li Caixia again, and forcibly suppressed the words of wiping the floor and table with disinfectant. She turned around and pulled Xiao Xingxing's arm: "Sister Xingxing, let's go quickly."
Li Caixia closed the gate and walked up to Jiang Jun. Her voice was much more serious: "Teacher Jiang, if martial law is in effect outside, can we still go out?"
Jiang Yun said with a sullen face: "Why are you going out for nothing?"
Li Caixia said anxiously: "Teacher Chen asked me to take you to the hospital immediately."
Jiang Jun gritted his teeth and waved his finger in front of Li Caixia's forehead. Unable to bring himself to do it, he tapped Li Caixia's shoulder instead: "You don't remember what I said to you. You take everything I said as an order. Who are you really close to?"
Li Caixia pouted: "Of course I kissed you, I just think Teacher Chen is quite fierce..."
Jiang Jun nodded twice more, "You're just a bully! I don't get angry with you, but you talk back to me. You think you have more reason than me, don't you? You don't listen to me, do you?"
Damn it, if this continues, Li Caixia will still be taller than her!
Subconsciously, she still regards Li Caixia as her mother and has no way of educating her!
Could it be that she is destined to have no loving mother in this life?
"Hehe, Teacher Jiang, you are different from Teacher Chen. I will listen to you. If you don't want to go, then don't go!" Li Caixia didn't know what was going on in Jiang Jun's mind. After being prompted by Jiang Jun a few times, she not only did not restrain herself, but also felt that she was closer to Teacher Jiang.
Jiang Jun was discouraged and didn't bother to say anything more: "I'll read a book for a while!"
Her emotions had not yet come out of the phone call, and she wanted to continue to quietly sort out the conversation between her and Chen Yuanwu.
Li Caixia hurried into the living room to check the exhaust pipe, stoked the coal stove to make it burn brighter, brought over the quilt to cover her legs, and placed the thermos and water cups beside her. "Teacher Jiang, you read while I knit."
Jiang Jun waved his hand: "Go to the kitchen and help me stew the soup."
Having someone swaying in front of you will interfere with your thinking.
Facts proved that Jiang Jun was overthinking it—Li Caixia didn't give her any quiet time alone—one moment she came over to ask how many dates to put in, the next moment she came over to ask if the white fungus should be cut into shreds before adding it...
In the end, Jiang Yun simply gave up thinking about the things he couldn't figure out, took out the textbooks, marked the key points, and assigned homework to Li Caixia.
As for Xiao Xingxing’s matter, humph, we’ll settle the score next time Chen Yuanwu calls!
Jiang Jun was very busy at work, and when he felt that he was basically recovered, he hurried back to work.
Unexpectedly, all the seats in the office were empty, and the blackboard hanging on the wall read: One week of political study!
Jiang Jun was puzzled. She didn't know what had happened, nor did she know where her colleagues had gone to study. There was not even a person on duty left, and no one notified her.
She carried the thermos to the water room to boil water and ran into her former colleague Qin Feiyan: "Secretary Qin, are you busy?"
In the 1970s, the national greetings were "Have you eaten?" and "What are you busy with?" Jiang Jun was not used to it at all, but could not think of a more suitable greeting, so he simplified it to just two words: "Busy", and decided whether to use a question mark or an exclamation mark after it depending on the person.
Qin Feiyan said calmly, "I heard you're sick?"
Jiang Jun thought, they were no longer in the same department, and their offices were not next to each other. They only had the chance to meet when they turned on the water or went to the toilet. How did her cold get to the personnel department?
Not knowing where her colleagues had gone for the meeting, nor how Secretary Qin knew about her illness, Jiang Jun wasn't sure if she was just ill or seriously ill. She said vaguely, "I can still hold on. I was afraid of delaying work, so I hurried back."
Secretary Qin's expression was a little surprised: "Don't force yourself. Rest when you need to. Come back to work when you're fully recovered."
Jiang Jun smiled. At this moment, she was a little unsure whether Qin Feiyan was being polite to her or reminding her not to rush to work. She said vaguely, "Thank you. I'll get some water and go back."
When they were working in the Personnel Department, they were low-level peripheral secretaries and all followed Qin Feiyan's instructions on their specific work.
Fortunately, Ye Qingyin had taught her how to answer such ambiguous questions. The answer "I'll go back after getting some hot water" was a double entendre, which could mean going back to the office or going back home.
Qin Feiyan remained calm: "Be careful on the road, cover yourself tightly with your hat and scarf, and don't breathe in the cold air."
Jiang Jun sighed softly, realizing Secretary Qin's true intention. She was asking her to go home. "Thank you, Secretary Qin. Goodbye."
What exactly happened?
Jiang Jun didn't dare to ask more questions and could only think about it in his mind. He returned to the office and looked around. Finally, he saw a newspaper from three days ago in the corner. He silently counted the time on the calendar on the wall, gave up the idea of taking the work home, left the desk as it was, and went home with his backpack.
The courtyard gate was locked. Li Caixia had gone out and hadn't returned yet. Jiang Jun didn't have a key, so he couldn't just sit there in the cold wind and wait. So he knocked on the door next door: "Sister Hagi?"
Wang Yuzhen's nanny opened the door and let her in. After taking two steps, she heard the voices of Hong Hao and Huang Chunbo coming from the inner room. A smile appeared on Jiang Jun's face - she could listen to Huang Chunbo's long talk again.
