It was Qi Mengmeng's first day working here, and she did not bring a water cup. She planned to bring a water cup with her when she goes to work in the afternoon so that it would be more convenient for her to drink water.
"I understand. I'll bring a water bottle when I come this afternoon."
Xiao Zhao sat down opposite Qi Mengmeng and asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, are you about to give birth? Why are you still coming to work? When my sister-in-law's belly was this big, she was about to give birth."
Qi Mengmeng was a little embarrassed. Is it appropriate for a young man like you to say these things to me?
"Sister-in-law, what does my brother do?"
Qi Mengmeng didn't expect Xiao Zhao to be so outgoing. He asked so many questions after only a few minutes of meeting her.
However, Qi Mengmeng didn't say much and most of the time she just listened to Xiao Zhao.
In just one morning, Xiao Zhao had told Qi Mengmeng about his family situation, and he also asked Qi Mengmeng to help him find a partner.
Qi Mengmeng: ...
She used to think that only old people talk a lot. This was the first time she met such a talkative young man. She was not used to it.
When she went to the cafeteria to get lunch at noon, she felt a buzzing in her ears.
Yu Xiaoman looked at her and shook her head, and asked with concern: "What's wrong? I see you keep shaking your head."
"Nothing." Qi Mengmeng took the lunch box and said, "I've been transferred to the logistics department today. If you have anything in the future, please come to the logistics department to find me."
Yu Xiaoman knew that Qi Mengmeng wanted to go to the logistics department, but she didn't expect Qi Mengmeng to be transferred there so soon. She must have thought of a way.
"Okay, I'll come over and talk to you when I'm free." Yu Xiaoman glanced at Qi Mengmeng's belly. Although she was wearing a cotton coat, her belly was very obvious.
"Mengmeng, the weather has been a bit cold these days, so be careful when you go to work."
Yu Xiaoman didn't say that he didn't have to go to work.
Qi Mengmeng felt very tired when she got off work every day in the past two days, but she had been sitting this morning, and apart from some tinnitus in her ears, her body didn't feel very tired.
But she didn't plan to go home at noon today. After lunch, she planned to sit in the office for a while.
Although she could lie down more comfortably at home, it would take so long to walk back and forth, and she really didn't want to walk.
Since she bought the house, she gave back the dormitory. Now if she wants to rest in the factory at noon, she can only do so in the office.
Fortunately, Xiao Zhao goes home at noon every day, which makes room for her.
Yu Xiaoman said a few words to Qi Mengmeng and hurried home to feed the child. Qi Mengmeng ate in the cafeteria and took the lunch box to the logistics department.
Sure enough, the door of the logistics department was locked. Qi Mengmeng opened the door, went in, and locked it from the inside.
She looked around the entire office. Apart from the table where she and Xiao Zhao sat facing each other and their respective chairs, there were only two cabinets, and at the innermost part was a warehouse.
Qi Mengmeng didn't look around the warehouse carefully. She yawned and slipped into the space.
Her belly was too big for her to sit on a chair for a nap, so she could sleep in the space when no one was around.
After setting the alarm, Qi Mengmeng lay on the big bed and had a comfortable nap.
She hadn't taken a nap in the space for a long time, and when she woke up, she felt very comfortable.
Sure enough, sleeping in the space allows you to sleep much longer than at home. You can drink some warm water after waking up. Qi Mengmeng took a ceramic jar and left the space.
She opened the door, and a few minutes later, Xiao Zhao walked in.
"Sister-in-law, you're here so early? I'm going to get some water. There are only two of us in this office, so please don't be polite to me."
"Then I'll have to trouble Xiao Zhao to fetch water." Qi Mengmeng took out a few pieces of candy from her pocket and put them on the table.
Xiao Zhao was originally preparing to fetch some water, but he didn't expect Qi Mengmeng to give him candy. He put the candy in his pocket without any hesitation and went to fetch some hot water.
After coming back, he poured a glass for Qi Mengmeng.
"Sister-in-law, would you like some tea? I have some tea here." Xiao Zhao took out his precious tea leaves.
Qi Mengmeng looked at the broken tea leaves and shook her head quickly: "Pregnant women can't drink tea, thank you."
"Really?" Xiao Zhao touched his head, pinched out a small handful of tea leaves and put them in the cup, then poured hot water.
He took a deep breath and seemed to be drinking tribute tea.
Qi Mengmeng originally wanted to say that she also had tea at home, but looking at Xiao Zhao's expression, she thought it would be better not to say it, so as not to make people think too much.
The work of the logistics department is similar to what Qi Mengmeng imagined. Except for everyone collecting things, it is not busy at all.
And with Xiao Zhao around, Qi Mengmeng doesn't need to do anything. She just needs to keep count, and Xiao Zhao will do all the other chores.
Xiao Zhao knew that Qi Mengmeng took a nap in the office every day at noon, so he found an unused mattress for Qi Mengmeng and asked Qi Mengmeng to put it on a chair during her lunch break.
Qi Mengmeng looked at the mattress that seemed to have been used by someone else and shook her head. She rested in the space at noon every day and really didn't want to use this mattress as a cover.
"Xiao Zhao, I'll just sit on the chair for a while at noon, so I don't need this cushion. Besides, there's no room for this cushion between two chairs."
"I'll go find a stool for my sister-in-law to put underneath."
"No, I can just sit on the chair."
Qi Mengmeng had to persuade Xiao Zhao with all her might, and it was good for her to sit on the chair and rest.
When Xiao Zhao took the mat back, he was still very regretful: "This mat was used three years ago. Even if ordinary people were given a dormitory, we would not be willing to give it to them."
Qi Mengmeng: Fortunately, I didn’t use it.
She has a large bed with plenty of space to sleep on, and doesn't need any mattress.
Qi Mengmeng had been working in the logistics department for a month when the first heavy snow of winter arrived quietly.
When Gu Guizhi woke up and saw a vast expanse of white, he immediately turned around and told Qi Mengmeng to take a leave of absence today and not go to work.
It's snowing so heavily outside. When more people go to work later, the road will definitely be muddy. It would be very dangerous if Qi Mengmeng accidentally falls.
Qi Mengmeng was also worried that something might happen, so she asked Gu Guizhi to talk to Master Li and ask Master Li to help her ask for leave.
After Gu Guizhi cooked the porridge, he went to Li's house, said goodbye to Master Li, came back and quickly heated up the steamed buns, fried some shredded potatoes with vinegar, and then went to work with the steamed buns.
It's snowing so heavily outside, and the road to the military area must be difficult to walk on, so he has to go there early.
Since she didn't have to go to work, Qi Mengmeng lay at home for another hour before getting up. She ate her breakfast slowly, and then Zhao Xiaocao came.
Zhao Xiaocao came to chat with Qi Mengmeng, looked at the clothes she prepared for the child, and cooked lunch for her at Qi Mengmeng's home at noon.
It was not until the evening, when it was dark, that Zhao Xiaocao left.
But Gu Guizhi never came back.
It wasn't until nine o'clock in the evening that car horns were heard outside.
