Zhang Shuguang packed up the gifts and asked his mother and his younger brother and sister to get on the tricycle as they were going to visit relatives in Suzhai.
My eldest cousin from my eldest aunt's family will accompany his wife back to her parents' home today, and will come to Zhangzhuang with my eldest aunt and uncle to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow. This was also discussed before the New Year.
The time is staggered by one day, so we can get together.
When visiting his grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings, Zhang Shuguang naturally would not be stingy. The New Year's gifts included chicken, duck, fish, meat, and a box of Fenjiu.
The main reason was that it was a high-proof liquor brewed by his grandfather himself, and Zhang Shuguang really couldn’t drink it.
Su Hong brought her three children to her mother's home and received the warmest welcome.
In order to show their importance to their younger sister, the four brothers, including several married nephews, did not go to visit relatives today, but waited at home for the younger sister of the Su family to come.
Grandma, grandpa and four uncles all gave New Year's money to Zhang Shuguang and his younger brothers and sisters. Zhang Shuguang accepted it happily. No matter how much the money was, it was the thought from the elders.
The Su family is large, and with the efforts of Zhang Xiangnan and Zhang Shuguang, they hired four more workers. In addition, the production output was reported truthfully by the entire commune last year, so the family had a surplus of grain. This year, the family feast was very good.
Men, women, young and old sat at four or five tables. The old couple of the Su family were all smiling. Because of Zhang Xiangnan, their most beloved little daughter had become a source of worry for the old couple.
Now that my son-in-law has been promoted for his meritorious service, he wants to let my daughter go to join the army. Our lives will definitely get better and better in the future.
On the second day of the New Year, we had dinner at my grandmother’s house in Suzhai, and on the third day, we welcomed my eldest aunt’s family.
The family was harmonious, talking and laughing, but the eldest aunt Zhang Yue'e had her old problem again, hugging Zhang Funi and wiping away tears for a while.
After seeing off the eldest aunt's family, Zhao Youzhi came. On the fourth day of the New Year, Zhao Youzhi, Liu Qiming, and Chen Guirong went to visit the old couple together.
When the three of them arrived, they drove two jeeps and caused a sensation in Zhangzhuang.
Everyone was sighing that Zhang Shuguang's family had really risen to prominence, and all the people who came to their house were big leaders.
Zhang Chenguang and Zhang Shengguang also got the news and made another fuss at home, insisting on completely severing ties with Zhang Xiangdong. They were once again suppressed by their uncles.
After seeing off the three of them, Zhang Shuguang's family had completely visited all of his relatives.
Temporary suffering is sometimes not a bad thing. At least it can help you see some people more clearly.
It is a good thing for those relatives who are selfish and only think about how to take advantage of others to stop their losses in time.
After spending the fifteenth day of the first lunar month with his grandparents, it was time for Zhang Shuguang to leave for Yunnan Province.
Before going to Yunnan Province, Zhang Shuguang went to the county town and delivered a wild boar to the machinery factory for the last time, and mentioned his plan to resign.
"Comrade Xiao Zhang, if you are not satisfied with your treatment, I can report it to the higher authorities and have your salary level raised."
Director Wang spat out a mouthful of tea because the joy brought by the two big wild boars was instantly diluted.
"Director Wang, it has nothing to do with salary level. I've only been here for six months, and my salary has already increased by two levels. I'm truly grateful for the care and respect the factory has shown me.
My father had been stationed in Yunnan Province. He was allocated a house before the New Year, so he planned to let my mother go there to join the army.
I'm worried about her taking her sister with her, so I want to send her off. I can't tell when she'll be back, and I can't keep occupying the position of buyer."
Zhang Shuguang explained his situation.
"Wait a moment, I'll go find Director Sun."
Director Wang rushed out of the office and went directly to Director Sun's office.
"Send him over here."
Sun Zhigang put down the pen in his hand and took off his glasses and put them aside.
"Uncle Sun."
Since he was about to resign, there was no need to hide his closeness to Sun Zhigang anymore. In front of Director Wang, he directly called him Uncle Sun.
"You little brat, you still remember I'm your uncle? Director Wang said you're planning to quit. Is it because my little temple can't accommodate a great god like you?"
As soon as he saw Zhang Shuguang coming in with a grin on his face, Sun Zhigang frowned and started to question him.
"Uncle Sun, that's wrong. I really need to go to Yunnan Province. I can't just sit there and collect a salary without doing anything. We can't do anything that undermines socialism!"
Zhang Shuguang laughed.
"I don't agree with your resignation. No matter when you come back, the buyer's position will be reserved for you.
Since you started working as a purchasing agent, the amount of meat purchased through you is more than that from the city meat processing plant.
Your outstanding contribution to the factory has been witnessed by everyone in the factory.
If I approve your resignation, won't the workers scold me?
When are you leaving? Be sure to come to my place when you leave.
You know, your father and I were in the same unit. When the time comes, I'll bring some local specialties to our old leader. You mustn't forget to do that."
Sun Zhigang instructed very seriously.
"Okay, I'll go to Yunnan Province in about a week, and then I'll come to pick up your things.
By the way, Uncle Sun, with your level, it shouldn't be difficult to find me three berths, right?"
The factory requires business trips every year, and I have always maintained a good relationship with Boss Tie.
It may be easier to ask Sun Zhigang to solve the sleeper berth problem than to ask Zhao Youzhi.
"No problem. Ask the brigade to issue you a letter of introduction. I'll take care of the berth issue."
Elders generally like younger people like Zhang Shuguang.
He is very measured in what he says and does. He won't make requests that put you in an awkward position, and he won't be polite to you on small matters.
Being too sensible and unwilling to trouble you with anything also represents a sense of alienation.
"Okay! Thank you so much, Uncle Sun. It's such a long journey, and it would be much easier to take a sleeper."
The two wild boars weighed 526 kilograms and earned more than 1,000 yuan. He wanted to leave the tricycle in the factory, but was directly rejected by Director Wang.
He is the factory director's nephew, and Director Sun didn't allow him to resign. I won't be so tactless!
Is this a tricycle issue? This is the leader's reputation. If he can't see through this, what's the point of being a logistics manager?
After leaving the machinery factory, Zhang Shuguang went to the county public security bureau again.
I'm leaving soon, so I have to say hello to Zhao Youzhi.
"Xiaoguang, you can stay in Yunnan Province for a while without any worries.
Uncle Zhao goes to Zhangzhuang every week to visit my uncle and aunt, and he won't let them suffer any injustice.
During the three years that Zhang Xiangnan was undercover, Zhao Youzhi, as his brother, was completely unaware of the hardships his family had endured, and he often blamed himself for this.
"Uncle Zhao, I'm so grateful for your kindness. I won't be polite to you. We'll meet in the future."
He had to owe Zhao Youzhi this favor.
Although the family entrusted the case to Song Shouye, no matter how powerful a Taoist priest is, he cannot be more intimidating than the Public Security Bureau.
With Zhao Youzhi's care, Zhang Shuguang finally had no worries at all.
