In the end, Sun Qianchao couldn't leave. At the warm invitation of Wu Guoqiang and his wife, he had another drink. Of course, Lao Wu came to the position relatively late, only two or three years ago, so he hadn't developed his drinking capacity yet.
The two of them together could only drink about 2 kilograms, and they succeeded in making Comrade Wu Guoqiang drink too much.
The words were completely ignored, and he was seen holding Sun Qunchao's shoulders.
He said drunkenly: "Brother, you can do it. Your eldest nephew Wu Pingfan will rely on you from now on. We are so good at it, but I can't treat you badly..."
Wu Pingfan, who was sitting on the sofa, was helpless after hearing his father's thoughts. This old man usually seemed quite serious, but when he drank, he transformed into an uncle.
Sitting on the sofa together, Wu's mother couldn't help it when she saw this scene. She got up and walked over, reached out and patted her husband's arm, and said in a calm tone:
"Old Wu, just drink enough. Look how drunk you are. What time is it? My grandson has to go to work tomorrow~"
Wu Guoqiang has little status at home, because he has only risen to prominence in the past few years. When he was still a clerk three years ago, his wife was already the second-in-command of the Jichun (Women's) Federation and a dignified deputy (department) level cadre.
The official is not as old as his wife, so he naturally cannot be strong at home. When Wu Guoqiang was at work, he was known as the "soft rice king".
So even though he is now about the same level as his wife, he has developed habits over the years. Although he has drunk too much, he still subconsciously stood up after hearing his wife's words, and obediently walked to the living room and sat on the sofa.
Sun Qianchao was stunned for a moment. He had heard that Old Wu was afraid of his wife before, but he didn't expect that he was so scared to the core.
After her husband left, Mother Wu said politely: "Xiao Sun, I'm really sorry for making you laugh. Our old Wu regards you as a family member, otherwise he would rarely drink like this outside~"
"Aunt Wu, thank you so much, Uncle Wu and you. Without you, I wouldn't be able to be a driver."
"Don't worry, I'm not that kind of ungrateful person. If you need anything in the future, just ask, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Sun Qianchao also used alcohol to show his loyalty, and he was indeed a little drunk.
No matter how good I am, I can't bear to drink like this. I drank two or three kilograms at the master's house in the afternoon, and drank more than one kilogram here.
"You kid, what you said is a heretic. You and Xiaofan are classmates, so you will be in good hands from now on~"
"By the way, how are you doing now, sister?" Mother Wu asked with a smile.
Zhizi Mo Ruomu, she felt strange during this period. Her son always went to Sun Chaochao to play when he had nothing to do.
She didn't think much about it at first, but two days ago she was inspecting the work of local women in Huaide Commune, and she didn't expect to see her son there. He was shopping with a little girl at the supply and marketing cooperative.
After asking around, Mother Wu knew who the girl was, and now she completely understood why her son always ran to Sun's house when he had nothing to do. It turned out that he was attracted to his daughter.
She is usually very busy with work and has never taken time. Today she happened to meet Sun Chaochao and wanted to take this opportunity to talk about this matter.
On the side, Sun Ganchao was a little confused when he heard this. Why did he suddenly ask about his sister? Could it be that the old Wu family was opposed to this?
I was thinking too much for a while, and coupled with the effect of alcohol, my mind was a little confused and I didn't know how to answer.
I could only say casually: "My sister is very good. I even went to see her when I came back today~"
Wu Pingfan, who was sitting on the sofa, also had a look of horror on his face. He didn't mention it to his parents. Why did his mother mention this? How did she know?
I really couldn't hold it back, so I got up and walked over and said, "Mom, you..."
Mother Wu waved her hand and interrupted her son's words directly, and said seriously: "Mom is usually busy with work, so you and your father are the only sons~"
"Old Wu must have told you that we hope you can find an ordinary girl to marry. Only in this way can you live a happy life. Don't be like me and your dad~"
Wu Pingfan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and couldn't help but interject: "Mom, are you and my dad?"
Wu's mother was stunned when she heard this, then she reacted and rolled her eyes at her son:
"Don't worry, your dad and I have no problem with our relationship, but we are both too busy. It was fine in the past few years, but now since your dad became the deputy director, we can hardly see each other for several days~"
"I won't mention anything else. In the past two years, our family of three has been able to have dinner together. That's why we hope you can find an ordinary little girl and live an ordinary life."
"Mom is an incompetent wife. In order to work when she was young, she only gave birth to a son like you. Besides, she doesn't take care of her family very much. I guess those relatives from your father's hometown poked my spine behind my back~"
"Alas~" Wu Pingfan's eyes turned red instantly, because he was a little moved by his mother's words.
It reminded him of his childhood. In his memory at that stage, there was no trace of his mother at all. She came back very late every day, and he slept at that time. When he got up in the morning, his mother had already gone to work.
Even for the entire six years of elementary school, my father Wu Guoqiang went to hold all parent-teacher conferences, and my mother probably didn’t even know where her own school was.
Mother Wu always felt that she owed her son. In her excitement, she stood up and hugged her son, regardless of the presence of outsiders.
Choking in her ear, she said, "Mom doesn't want your future wife to be like me. I've wronged you and your father all these years~"
Sun Qianchao listened blankly to the side, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment. He could only turn his head to the window and look at the night scene outside.
After all, Wu's mother held a high position and quickly regained her senses. She gently patted her son's broad back and then let go of him.
At the same time, I was sighing in my heart. Maybe I was really wrong. I didn't realize that my son was already so old, but I had almost no memories with him in my memory. They were almost all about work.
Also with a feeling of guilt, this time for the sake of her son, Mother Wu thought that she had rarely violated her principles, so she asked someone to investigate Sun Xiaoli, and found that this girl was indeed good.
My family has a simple population, my parents are reasonable people, my brothers and sisters are all good, and there are no messy things. These two things are rare and valuable.
Mother Wu thought for a moment and decided to help her son. She turned around and said:
"Catch up, you happen to be here too. My aunt is clear and she doesn't tell secrets. Xiaofan must like your sister. Your uncle and I don't object. And if the two of us get married, we will definitely treat her as our biological daughter." !”
"What does your sister think now? What does she think of Xiaofan?"
"Mom, why are you talking about this~" Wu Pingfan was a little embarrassed on the side.
When Sun Qianchao heard this, his mind raced rapidly, and finally it seemed that what Wu's mother said didn't sound like a lie.
So he said truthfully: "Auntie, this morning, when I went to my sister's place, I asked her specifically. She should be interested in Brother Fan, but she just has concerns~"
Mother Wu also guessed the little girl's concerns and smiled and said: "Xiaoli just thinks too much. When I have time, I will go to Hujiatun in person and talk to her in person~"
"Mom, no need. Didn't you do well in the past? I can handle this matter myself!" Wu Pingfan didn't want his mother to get involved.
Wu's mother did not save face for her son: "You have to deal with it. With your indecisive temperament, if I give you another year, you will be in vain~"
…
Summer has arrived in a blink of an eye. For more than a month, Sun Qianchao often drove with his master. He also traveled all kinds of routes in the factory and was exhausted at the same time.
Because this unscrupulous master, under the guise of training himself, rarely touches the steering wheel when he goes out to drive a car. He drives back and forth by himself. Normally, he will drive for 20 minutes only when he is really tired and can't stand it anymore.
When they gathered this morning, Sun Qianchao found that this time was a little different from before. Chief Qi of the Labor and Employment Department was actually standing next to Qian Sheng.
But after thinking about it, he immediately reacted, turned to Liu Ming and joked softly:
"Master, there is good news in your delivery room. Is it going to be promoted?"
"Ah, what are you talking about? Your sister-in-law is just three months pregnant. It will be at least six months before she gives birth. What good news~" Liu Ming still didn't react, because he was immersed in it at the moment. In joy.
Sun Qianchao was a little helpless about this, but he still explained: "Master, I'm talking about your business. Why are you talking about my sister-in-law? Do I still know that my sister-in-law is six months old?"
Then he raised an eyebrow: "Lao Qi is here today, are you going to be promoted?"
"Oh my God, I just realized what you said about this. What the hell, you are making too much fuss~" Liu Ming pretended to be very calm on the surface.
But actually when he was at work today, when his master Qian Sheng came to him and said that the appointment had been made, Liu Ming burst into tears of excitement.
The time was almost up, and the master and apprentice stopped chatting and quickly stood at attention.
At the same time, Section Chief Qian Sheng, who was standing in front, also officially started today's meeting. However, after finishing the work arrangements, he did not let everyone disperse as usual.
Instead, he said with a smile: "I'll spare everyone a few minutes. Seeing Section Chief Qi of the Labor and Employment Department next to me, I think everyone knows it~"
When the people below heard this, they immediately started talking:
"Of course I know, Deputy Section Chief Liu must have been officially appointed!"
"Chief Liu, you are in for a treat~"
Sun Qianchao also joked: "Master, from now on, you will be a veritable deputy section-level cadre!"
"Go away, you kid. It's okay if others are making fun of you. You're still trying to mess with me. Let's see how I deal with you later~" Liu Ming smiled and cursed at his apprentice.
A driver next to him also made a joke when he heard this: "If you catch up, Section Chief Liu won't let you wear small shoes~"
Qian Sheng, who was standing in front, nodded with satisfaction. He liked this kind of working atmosphere very much. After about a minute, he coughed lightly:
"Ahem, please be quiet for a moment. I'd like to ask Section Chief Qi to read out the personnel appointments~"
Upon hearing this voice, the originally noisy voices below suddenly became silent.
Section Chief Qi has been working in the factory for so many years, and he is well aware of Qian Sheng's control over the transportation department. He has long been used to it.
Without saying any nonsense, he took out a piece of paper from his briefcase and read loudly:
"Liu Ming, the squad leader of the first class, worked diligently and actively during his work. Especially when he was on a business trip, he protected the country's property regardless of personal danger, and he..."
"The factory party committee has now decided to appoint Liu Ming as deputy section chief of the transportation department!"
After all the procedures were over and the meeting was over, Liu Ming, who had been excited before but now seemed quite calm, stopped his apprentice specifically: "Catch up, come to the office with me!"
"Okay~" Sun Qianchao said and followed the master to the office.
After arriving at the office, Liu Ming sat on a chair and said: "Catch up, you have made very rapid progress this month, I have been watching it!"
"After communicating with the section chief, he also thinks that your professional level is about the same. Next, there is a delivery task to Annong County. The section chief said that you should run, which can be regarded as an assessment of you~"
"At the same time, a team driver will be sent to supervise the car. If you don't have any problems on this trip, you can become a regular employee after you come back~"
When Sun Qianchao heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly expressed his attitude: "I know master, I will behave well and I will not embarrass you~"
"Yeah~" Liu Ming nodded. He was not worried about whether he would pass the assessment.
Because after this month of training, his apprentice's driving skills are not much worse than those of the veteran drivers in the team. What he lacks is just some experience.
Then he took out the cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and threw it over. He also took one out and put it to his mouth.
After Sun Qianchao took the cigarette, he quickly took out the matches and helped the master light the fire.
"Baba~" Liu Ming took two puffs of cigarette.
He was also afraid that his apprentice would be nervous, so he comforted him by saying, "Don't worry too much. I know your level. As long as you perform normally, there will definitely be no problem!"
"Master has been here for so many years after all. The person supervising the car is from the third team. I'll go say hello later and take care of you!"
"Thank you, master, for causing you trouble~" Sun Ganchao said with a bright smile on his face.
"I'm not used to you being so polite all of a sudden. I just liked how you were unruly and unruly~" Liu Ming joked while smoking a cigarette.
Sun Qunchao said in a pretentious manner: "Master, you have been promoted!"
"In the past, you were the captain and I could be either big or small. Now you are the deputy section chief. What if you have to wear small shoes for me?"
Liu Ming laughed and scolded: "Go away, you're useless. Also, let me tell you, I'm still your captain, and I'll take this position first~"
"Master, according to the tradition of our sect, can I look forward to the position of captain? I really want to make progress~" Sun Qianchao asked half seriously and half jokingly.
"Catch up, I'm very happy that you have this idea, but it takes some effort. After all, you haven't become a full-time official yet, and your joining time is too short. If you come two or three years earlier, the position of captain will definitely be yours~" Liu Ming looked serious. replied.
Sun Qianchao actually knew that it was unrealistic. He was not a son of destiny, and his background was not strong. How could he become the captain just over two months after he came here.
"Master, I was just joking~"
"Okay, don't be ridiculous. When you go to Annong County this time, you can drive my car. You are more familiar with this car!" After Liu Ming finished speaking, he threw the car keys on the table.
Then he warned: "In the future, you must take good care of the car. If you say inappropriate words, it will be better than your wife. These are your master's exact words when you gave me the car~"
After chatting for a while, it was time to set off. Liu Ming personally watched his apprentice drive out of the transportation department gate, with a look of worry on his face.
"Don't worry, this guy is better than you at catching up~" Qian Sheng came over at some point.
Liu Ming sighed first, and then asked: "Master, did you look at me like this back then~"
"I have no time to care about you~" Qian Sheng told a lie.
Everything is going smoothly here for Sun to catch up. After all, he is the "Prince" in the Transportation Department, the most important household, the master is the section chief, and the master is the deputy section chief, so he may not be a big deal in the factory.
But in the three-acre area of the Transportation Department, he can walk sideways. As long as there are no major problems, the drivers who supervise the vehicle will naturally give him good reviews, and it will be a matter of course for him to be regularized.
Annong County is relatively close. We left the factory at around 9 a.m. and came back at around 2 p.m., waiting for Sun Qunchao to complete the procedures at the Labor and Employment Department and come out.
I looked up at the sky and felt very happy, because from now on, we are also a level 1 driver with a salary of 38.5 yuan.
Returning to the Transportation Department with joy, he first went to the section chief's office. After being encouraged for a few words, Sun rushed to the next door.
As soon as he entered the door, he found a familiar person and couldn't help but ask him: "Yuanchao, why are you here? Have you finished studying car repair?"
"Yeah~" Zhao Yuanchao smiled shyly, feeling that he had finally caught up.
Sun Qianchao nodded at him, then turned to Liu Ming and said, "Master, I have completed the procedures at the Labor and Employment Department, and I have also gone to the section chief~"
"Well, since you have become a full-time employee, you should work hard. I will not arrange long distances for you during this period. I will run short distances to practice and accumulate more experience~" Liu Ming was not surprised that his apprentice could become a full-time employee.
Again, if the section chief's apprentice or the deputy section chief's apprentice can't change his position, then the shady story here is too big.
Zhao Yuanchao on the side was stunned. He had just finished learning how to repair cars, and Sun Qianchao, who came a few days later than him, had already become a full-time employee?
This is so shocking. I thought I could catch up and everyone was on the same starting line, but I didn’t expect that they had already sprinted ahead of schedule.
Sun Qianchao also noticed Zhao Yuanchao's expression, walked over and said deliberately: "Yuanchao, it just so happens that I have become a full-time employee, why don't you become my apprentice, and I will teach you well~"
"Go away~" Zhao Yuanchao was a little angry. This was equivalent to the fact that the two were classmates at first.
The result was good. I was not good at studying and repeated a grade. And because of my excellent academic performance, my former classmate has now returned to school to be a teacher, and she even wants to be my class teacher...
