The feeling of being with Sister Yan Zi is like we’ve known each other for a long time.
Yu Sui followed Sister Yan Zi to take a look around the factory and found that the equipment in the food factory was quite good for this era. If they needed to make some cakes and pastries, it would not be impossible for them to be made without Yu Sui making a special trip.
Yu Sui asked Sister Yan Zi directly in a place where no one was around: "Sister-in-law, your factory doesn't really need me to come, right? You could just get a formula from me. Are you arranging me here specifically for my Xia Lin's sake?"
Sister Yan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Hahaha, what a smart girl! You figured it out? Then, are you going to thank me for reuniting you with Xia Linsheng?"
"Of course I have to thank you, sister-in-law, you are such a kind person. If you like those gloves, I will make you a few more pairs someday!"
"Oh, you're so adorable!"
Yu Sui looked at her and said sincerely, "You are everyone's sister-in-law. Thank you for giving me this opportunity. I will remember it in my heart."
Sincere emotions can infect people, and Sister Yan Zi naturally became more sincere:
"That's because you're capable. As for me, I treat these comrades below me like my own brothers. Even though we are in charge of teaching, I still care about these comrades from time to time, especially the company commanders. I treat them like my own brothers.
They treated me like their own sister-in-law. When Xia Linsheng came home from his family leave and brought a bunch of pastries, saying they were ordered by his wife, I figured he must be a good wife. But a few days later, my husband, Fang, came home sighing and saying how bad Xia Linsheng was. Usually, my husband, Fang, doesn't talk about business when he's home, and I don't ask about it, but that time he kept talking about it, so I asked.
He told me someone had reported Xia Linsheng for forcing people to marry, and the higher-ups were suggesting he should just be demobilized. Listen, demobilized, not transferred to civilian jobs. That would be so bad for Xia Linsheng! I told my husband, "Absolutely impossible! Didn't you see the family members voluntarily make cakes and bring them to share with everyone? If he was forced, why would they come up with such things? It must be a false accusation."
Then Lao Fang went to investigate and verify, but some things were beyond his control. He went back and forth to Captain Jia many times, and Captain Jia finally submitted a review application to the higher-ups, who then agreed to conduct a detailed investigation. Sigh... Although the results of the investigation haven't been fed back yet, Lao Fang definitely believes Xia Linsheng!
As his sister-in-law, I've seen Xia Linsheng looking so downcast for a while now, which is quite difficult. So I said, since our supply and marketing cooperative needs to increase the variety of food, I can find a technician to work as a temporary assistant. I brought you here, so that Xia Linsheng can rest assured that the difficulties will pass, and those who made false accusations will be found out. You staying here for a while will also reassure him."
Listen carefully to the words and the tone. Although Sister Yan Zi was only narrating one thing, Yu Sui still grasped the key point of the matter.
The first point is, of course, that it was Sister Yan Zi who admitted it. As the elder sister-in-law with whom Xia Linsheng had a closer relationship, she brought Yu Sui in as a temporary concubine in order to appease Xia Linsheng.
The second key point was to subtly tell Yu Sui that this incident had an impact on Xia Linsheng. The person who truly kept Xia Linsheng was Deputy Battalion Commander Fang; Battalion Commander Jia was completely indifferent. The request for an investigation from the top down was only possible after Battalion Commander Fang had repeatedly contacted his superiors.
Yu Sui understood everything and nodded obediently, "Thank you, sister-in-law. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that my Xia Linsheng was in trouble. He didn't mention this in his letter to me."
"Men, as a rule, don't want women to worry. Our old man Fang has always praised him, saying he's first-rate both in his work and his character. Whenever something happened on the border, he'd rush to the front, regardless of his own safety. If our army doesn't protect a man like him, who will? Yu Sui, as military families, we should also be open-minded. Trust the organization when we have problems, and don't be afraid of this. We should just work diligently at our posts and make due contributions to our country."
If she had heard such words in her previous life, Yu Sui might have burst out laughing. Isn't this too fake?
But now, looking at Sister Yan Zi's sincere and pure eyes, Yu Sui only felt immense respect from the bottom of her heart:
"Oh, I understand, sister-in-law. I will definitely not have any emotions or thoughts. I will cooperate with Xia Linsheng and do what I should do."
"What a smart girl! Xia Linsheng is so lucky. I'll take you to the sample workshop and introduce you to the workshop director. For the next month, you'll just get off work with them and make the products. Although I invited you here mainly to comfort Xia Linsheng, your pastries are also really good. I asked the pastry chefs in the factory, but they couldn't explain the recipes of your pastries. You have to teach them."
"Tian, I will definitely teach them how to make our Jiangnan specialty cakes."
Next, Yu Sui devoted herself to the work very seriously.
There is a coal mine nearby, so the electricity and heating in the county are very stable. Yu Suixian likes to stay in the factory and listen to people talk about the local customs and culture. The factory is relatively warm, so she doesn't want to go back to the cold dormitory!
Sister Yan Zi is not here most of the time. She is the manager of the supply and marketing cooperative and is very busy.
In later generations, she would definitely be considered a strong woman.
This strong woman is also good at taking care of others. After Yu Sui worked for a week, Sister Yan Zi came to take her home for dinner, saying that she had promised Xia Linsheng to take care of her and she couldn't go back on her word.
Sister Yan Zi did not live in the family compound. She was a local and had her own large yard.
There is also a kang in the big yard, so it feels warm as soon as you go in.
Yu Sui followed her and sat cross-legged on the kang, preparing to make dumplings.
Sister Yan Zi first stuffed a piece of paper in front of her: "Oh, yesterday I went back to the family compound to bring some food to Lao Fang, and I met Captain Jia's family. They gave me a notice. Take a look at it."
Yu Sui took a look and saw that it said "Arrangements for the **tuan New Year's Family Reunion", and the time was set for the eve of the Chinese New Year.
According to the above requirements, every officer's family member must participate, and each family member must perform a program. The best performance must be performed at the New Year's party for the entire regiment on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
Yu Sui: "You guys do this every year? So what are you performing, sister-in-law?"
Sister Yan Zi: "I don't perform. I don't have time for these nonsense. Besides, I'm a rough guy and can't do these things. Of course, we don't do this every year. This one was organized by the guy from Captain Jia's family who just became the deputy director of some cultural troupe this year."
Yu Sui understood.
It was done by Ms. Guan Changqing.
