Qin Tiantian glared at him and said, "Just because you can't persuade him doesn't mean others can't."
Guo Jing turned his face away and said in a low voice: "If I mention it, my dad will definitely scold me."
His old father had always been very strict with him, not only at home but even more so at the factory.
From the first day he started working at the factory, his father told him that he was just an ordinary employee and that he and the factory director were superiors and subordinates, not father and son. Public is public, private is private, and they must not be mixed up.
Despite this, he still secretly benefited a lot from his old father.
It's okay to take advantage of someone's connections, but it's absolutely not okay when it comes to matters of principle.
"Don't be so direct. If you ask your dad directly for a promotion, he will definitely not agree." Qin Tiantian lowered her voice and said, "We must adopt a roundabout way to save the country, just like last time."
Guo Jing said "Ah?" and asked, "Which time? Last time?"
Qin Tiantian whispered, "Last time, didn't I say I wanted to go to the department store to ask for a stall or store? At first, your father refused and asked me to stay at home to take care of the children. I cried and said that I had read so many books and couldn't let them go to waste. I didn't want to let my father down for his hard work in cultivating me. Besides, you don't make much money now, so I have to help you so that our family can get better in the future. I can't let you be under too much pressure alone."
After she put forward this high-sounding excuse, her mother-in-law was immediately moved.
The mother-in-law loves her son like a treasure and has always been worried that her husband will retire when he is old, and her son will have no hope of promotion without anyone to promote and take care of him.
My son does not hold a high position, nor is he a professional technician. He does not have much room for advancement based on his own abilities. He has no hope of a high position or a promotion, so how can he earn a high salary to support his family?
Because of this, when her mother-in-law heard that she was going to sell clothes in the department store, she immediately agreed and expressed her support.
The reason is simple. A daughter-in-law can help her son to some extent and reduce the burden of family expenses. It is a blessing in disguise. Having one more person earning money in the family is completely different from having only one person earning money.
Next, there are old and young in the family, and we can’t put all the pressure on our son’s shoulders. It would be better to reduce some of it.
So, the mother-in-law quarreled with the father-in-law, asking him to talk to the store manager of the department store and ask him to find a chance to reserve a store space for him.
My father-in-law ignored me at first and went about his own business. But my mother-in-law didn't give up and kept nagging me about it for days.
Later, the father-in-law softened his heart. Perhaps he felt somewhat guilty for not arranging a job for her in the factory. In addition, he was annoyed by the mother-in-law's constant whispering, so he finally had to take action.
The other party quickly agreed and promised that it could be done by the end of the year or the beginning of next year, and asked Qin Tiantian to make preparations.
Guo Jing couldn't help asking, "You mean - let my mom whisper in my dad's ear again? It's unlikely... My dad is very strict about the affairs in the factory. It's easier to handle affairs outside, but most of the affairs in the factory are not possible."
Qin Tiantian looked at him helplessly and complained: "Why are you so stupid! You can't persuade your father, and your mother can't persuade him either, but Liu Chennian can! With his current position, it's not difficult for him to nominate you for promotion. Your father only needs to sign his name, which doesn't take much effort. As long as Liu Chennian insists, even if your father doesn't agree, you won't refuse his face."
"Uh..." Guo Jing asked suspiciously: "Is it possible? Liu Chennian looks like he is very cheerful and speaks very well, but he is actually an old fox!"
The senior colleagues in the factory all praised Liu Chennian as a smiling tiger, who looked gentle on the surface but was actually ferocious and domineering, and was not someone who could be easily dealt with.
Qin Tiantian sneered and reminded: "If you take the initiative to ask for it, he may not agree, and he may even use your father as a shield. But what if it is your mother who goes to ask?"
Guo Jing suddenly realized and laughed excitedly.
"Yes! My mother is his teacher! He can't just ignore my mother's face!"
Qin Tiantian smiled and whispered, "It doesn't matter if you can't persuade your father, Liu Chennian will definitely be able to do it. Besides, he also has the right to promote his subordinates. It's not like I'm forcing him to promote you."
"That's right!" Guo Jingpo raised his eyebrows proudly: "His power was given by my father. I don't need to go directly to my father, I can just go to him, Liu Chennian, indirectly!"
"Let your mother go find them." Qin Tiantian reminded: "Don't show up, just pretend you know nothing. Liu Chennian respects your parents very much. You just need to quietly give your mother a little reminder, and your mother will go to Liu Chennian on her own."
Guo Jing couldn't help but frown and said, "There's no need to 'beg'. My mother is the elder and Liu Chennian is the younger. My mother only needs to tell him what to do! How can a master ask his apprentice for help? It would be so embarrassing if it got out!"
"You are stupid!" Qin Tiantian scolded angrily: "Do you have any brains? How can this be spread out?! Ah? You are afraid that your dad will kill you!"
Guo Jing was used to being a boss, and he yelled angrily, "I really want to get promoted, but there's no need for me to bow down to Liu Chennian! My mom doesn't need to do that either! When he was with my dad, he wasn't even a small follower! If my dad hadn't given him a chance, he would be nothing more than a small salary in the factory!"
He really wanted to be promoted, but he, Guo Jing, had his dignity.
His position is not as high as Liu Chennian's, but his position in the factory is not lower than Liu Chennian's. Everyone knows that Guo Jing is the only son of Director Guo! Who in Yucheng dares not to give Guo Jing face!
Let him Guo Jing bow and scrape to Liu Chennian - absolutely impossible!
It's impossible for him, let alone his old relatives!
Qin Tiantian was almost irritated to tears by his intelligence and arrogance, and shouted: "Things are different now! People should be able to bend and stretch, and be humble occasionally. It won't cost you your life! When you have nothing, no power and no money, see what your dignity and face can bring you! It's worthless!"
If she wasn't pregnant, she would have wanted to slap him in the face to wake him up!
Guo Jing shrank his neck, looking like he was asking for death with an attitude of "I don't care! I won't bow my head no matter what!"
Qin Tiantian held her forehead helplessly and explained: "Liu Chennian is the type of person who is soft-hearted and not hard-hearted. Although your mother is his teacher and his elder, he is now a respected deputy factory director and is no longer the same as before. If your mother said something soft and begged a little, Liu Chennian would definitely give your mother face."
"But——" Guo Jing still insisted on saving face.
Qin Tiantian interrupted him and said firmly: "There is no but. For your future, for the future of this family, you must be able to bend and stretch. If you insist on saving face, you will only suffer in life, why bother! Besides, it is your mother who went to persuade, not you!"
Guo Jing stopped talking awkwardly.
Qin Tiantian urged: "Hurry up and do it. Don't delay and miss it. Try to get promoted one level next year, and another level the following year, and then transfer to the administrative building. Anyway, before your father retires, you must at least be a director."
"...Okay." Guo Jing was still a little nervous.
Qin Tiantian couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she took the initiative to say, "If you can't speak, I'll go talk to my mother-in-law."
She had been in this family for a while and had some understanding of the personalities of her mother-in-law and father-in-law.
In fact, my mother-in-law has no special ability. She is just an ordinary old woman in the family and relies on my father-in-law for everything.
However, she was doing it for her son and for the family. As long as anything related to her son, she would immediately become excited. As long as it was good for her son, she would be willing to do it even if it cost her a lot of money.
After Qin Tiantian figured it out, she tried her best to show love and kindness to Guo Jingtu in front of the old lady. The more she behaved and the more well-behaved she was, the less likely her mother-in-law would be to give her a cold shoulder.
This time the love is for Guo Jing, she must be a hundred percent willing!
"Okay, go ahead." Guo Jing said with a smile.
Qin Tiantian glared at him, then pulled over the thin quilt and lay down again.
Guo Jing laughed loudly and fell asleep in a daze.
