He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Anything else?"
Chen Xingling hooked his finger at him and lowered his voice: "You borrow cars from the logistics department from time to time. Are they dissatisfied or unhappy?"
There are not many cars in the shipyard. The logistics department has a jeep for employees to borrow for entering and exiting. Anyone who has a work permit and can drive can borrow it.
Gu Qi has been borrowing cars very frequently in the past two days. Last night, he even knocked on the door late at night to ask for the keys to borrow the car.
Jeeps are for public use, not personal property. Some people use them more, some use them less, so naturally some people will secretly be dissatisfied.
In personal life, the most taboo thing is "not the lack of wealth but the inequality of wealth". Now that the whole family is in the big group of the shipyard, it is natural to follow the rules of the group when doing things.
Gu Qi shook his head. "Yes, you are just being polite. I can show my work ID and get the key. There are only a few people in the factory who can drive, and very few people usually borrow cars. I heard from the people in the logistics department that Guo Shijing borrowed a lot recently, but no one has borrowed for the past half month."
Chen Xingling untied the small military-colored bag tied to the front of the car and whispered, "We have borrowed a lot these two days, so it will definitely cause some inconvenience to others. Gifts are always welcome. Take these two packs of cigarettes with you and share them with the staff in the logistics department later."
Although borrowing a car is an employee's right, there are only a handful of people in the factory who can drive, and they don't usually borrow a car when they don't need it, so most of the jeeps belong to the logistics department.
Borrowing too frequently may cause inconvenience to others, and the staff in the logistics department may be more or less dissatisfied.
What if the other party refuses to lend you the money when you need it urgently next time? It would be bad if you delay your important work.
Gu Qi looked at the two packs of foreign cigarettes and couldn't help asking, "Xing'er, how many did Fourth Brother bring for you? These are rare things, and it's not good to give them away casually. Otherwise, I'll go out and buy a few packs of Peony."
"Here." Chen Xingling handed it to him and said, "My fourth brother gave me a lot. Don't just take it. Otherwise, my sister-in-law will be jealous that my fourth brother dotes on me too much."
These were taken from the supermarket, and she didn't have to spend a penny. She was afraid of being exposed so she only took imported old cigarettes.
Gu Qi had no choice but to take it and promised: "Don't worry, I won't say anything nonsense."
Chen Xingling explained: "Since we are going to give gifts, we should give rare things, so that people will be happier. If we give enough favors to people at ordinary times, they will help us at critical moments."
"Yeah." Gu Qi agreed and left in a hurry.
Since his wife came to the shipyard, many people around him said that he had become more humane and not as "cold and heartless" as before.
Even Director Guo said that his wife was very thoughtful and tactful in her work and life, and she understood the ways of the world and human nature, which just made up for his shortcomings.
Other couples have similar goals and ideas, but they are typical complementary couples.
There should be nothing unusual about having the same values and interests as if living with another self. In his opinion, couples who complement each other can last longer.
The mother and son arrived downstairs of the first floor of the riverside hotel, and little Huzi climbed down from the back seat of the car nimbly and skillfully.
Chen Xingling carried the car up the stairs, pulled it into the stairwell and locked it.
Little Tiger followed behind and asked: "Mom, can I go to primary school?"
"It should be possible." Chen Xingling replied: "We will ask in advance. Your situation is quite special. I hope the Personnel Department can help you get into Shuiyue Primary School."
Little Tiger rolled his eyes and asked again, "Mom, can I stop studying after I finish college?"
"Who said that?" Chen Xingling buried his head in the padlock and answered anxiously, "Learning is boundless. Learning in life is endless. Learning should be long-term and lifelong. There are also graduate schools above college. You should try to learn at a higher level in the future."
"Is that the truth?" Little Tiger asked doubtfully, "Isn't it true that learning is a journey of hardship? Why is it different from what is said in the book?"
Forehead?
Chen Xingling couldn't believe that he could even understand such a proverb, and his old mother's heart instantly became proud of him.
"It's a different story, but learning is endless and we should keep learning, right? You haven't even started school yet, but you're already thinking about not studying. What can I do?"
Little Tiger answered crisply: "Grandma said so."
Chen Xingling held his little hand and walked up the stairs, asking, "What did grandma say? What did she say?"
Gu Yinmo answered seriously: "Grandma said that when I grow up, I should study hard, go to college, and then I can make a lot of money. Grandma also said that the purpose of studying is to make a lot of money, and asked me to make a lot of money in the future. She said as long as I have a lot of money, I can do whatever I want."
Chen Xingling secretly rolled his eyes and shook his head to explain: "Studying is to learn knowledge and to improve one's abilities, not just to make money."
"Really?" The little guy asked suspiciously, "But grandma said that the purpose of studying is to make money. I read in a book that there is a golden house in the book, and that should be what it means."
Chen Xingling shook his head repeatedly: "No, don't be misled by your grandma. Learning is not as simple as making money. Learning is the accumulation of knowledge and ability. When you put a little knowledge into your head, you will understand more and more things, and your ability will become stronger and stronger."
Xiao Huzi couldn't help but ask: "If you have good abilities, you can make a lot of money, right?"
"Not necessarily." Chen Xingling replied: "People with good abilities may not necessarily make a lot of money. If the knowledge you learn can help others and make a lot of contributions, that is much more meaningful than making a lot of money."
Little Tiger muttered: "But grandma said that as long as I have money, I can do it, and don't worry about other things. She said that I should study hard, go to college and make a lot of money, just like my dad."
Chen Xingling frowned slightly and lowered his voice: "Dad is working to make money now, but he has also made many contributions. For example, during the winter, Dad helped people repair the boat and saved many people on the boat. For example, the machinery designed by Dad can help the workers reduce their burden and improve their work efficiency. Making money is for living, and also for helping others."
"Oh oh." Little Tiger seemed to understand and muttered, "Then I still want to be like Dad."
Chen Xingling knew that the child had one idea after another, and if he thought about it at this moment, he would soon have other ideas.
But the mother-in-law has a distorted outlook on life, is greedy and selfish, and people like her can easily lead children astray, especially little Huzi, who is still a young boy who is ignorant and eager to learn, and is too easily misled and forms wrong ideas.
Gu Yinmo in the novel eventually grew up to be a villain, which was mainly caused by his mother-in-law and sister-in-law's incorrect values.
She finally managed to escape from the Gu family's old house with her children, but they caught up with her in less than half an hour.
No, she has to be more careful during this period to prevent her child from being instilled with wrong ideas and all her previous efforts being wasted.
After going upstairs, Chen Xingling started to cook porridge and boiled a few packets of instant noodles and put them in cold water for later use.
Then, she took out the meatballs from the space and shredded the cabbage.
Gu Xuan was reading quietly in the room, paying no attention to the suitcases and bags scattered all over the small room, let alone his little nephew who was playing with building blocks in the living room.
As night fell, Zhao Xiaoxing returned home from get off work.
Chen Xingling told her the two good news. She was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears. She held Chen Xingling's hand and kept thanking him.
"Sister-in-law, I will clean during my lunch break and every night. If Ayi comes to help, we should be able to move in the day after tomorrow."
Chen Xingling took out the key and handed it to her, whispering: "You guys make your own arrangements. I'm busy lately and I'm afraid I can't help you. I'll pay the deposit for you, and you'll have to pay the rent yourself from now on."
"Yeah." Zhao Xiaoxing thanked him gratefully, murmuring, "Sister-in-law, you have helped us so much. Ayi and I will work hard to earn money and pay the rent ourselves."
Chen Xingling thought for a moment and reminded: "If your mother-in-law asks, just say it's a few dollars a month, don't say too much. If she asks how much it is specifically, just say I helped you bargain and she had to ask me."
Zhao Xiaoxing nodded hurriedly.
