Luo Xingchen felt relieved after learning that Xingxing would be fine.
After staying in the bureau for a while, I thought that it had been a long time since I went to the factory. After all, with the salary from the factory, I couldn't stay out for a long time.
Go downstairs, get in the car and drive to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.
In Luo Xingchen's office at Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, Nian Nian and Guo Chongyang were sitting across from each other on the sofa.
"I haven't been here recently. Nothing happened in the factory."
"Report to the section chief, nothing happened, everything is normal." Na Nian replied.
"Well, as long as everything is normal, be careful not to let down your guard. The enemy is determined to do us harm. Security measures must be taken in important places like the steel rolling mill, and we must always be careful to prevent enemy agents from sneaking in."
"Yes, the section chief promises to complete the task." The two men saluted and replied after standing up.
"Relax, sit down, I'm here today just to see how you are doing here, and chat with you by the way, don't be nervous."
The two of them sat down.
"When I first came in, I saw that there were several places where new workshops were being built, right?"
"Yes, Section Chief, the factory is planning to build two more workshops."
"It seems that after the expansion of the factory is completed, new employees will come in. By then, there will only be more and more workers in the factory, and your work will increase accordingly. When the time comes, you will see how you feel about the lack of manpower. If it's enough, report it to me immediately." Luo Xingchen said.
"No problem, Section Chief, don't worry, there are two of us in the factory, nothing will happen."
"Haha, I'm quite relieved about this. Okay, nothing happens. You can go and do your work. If you can't handle anything, just call me or send someone to find me."
"Okay section chief, let's get to work first."
After the two left, Luo Xingchen walked around the factory and came to the factory director's office.
"Lao Yang, I'm busy."
"Isn't this Chief Luo? I haven't seen him for more than a month."
"Haha, there have been a lot of things going on in the bureau recently, so I didn't come over."
"Are you free at noon today? Let me have dinner with you. Let me tell you that the chefs in our factory are very good at cooking." Director Yang said.
"Haha, you are talking about He Daqing, right?"
"Yes, yes, how do you know?"
"We live in the same courtyard, and I hired his son to work as a chef in our bureau. Do I know their cooking skills?" Luo Xingchen explained.
"So this is ah."
"Then you should know that there is an old deaf lady in your courtyard." Director Yang asked.
"She lives next door to me, why do you know her?"
"We know her. I owed her a favor. I went to visit her a few days ago. I didn't see you. She must have gone to work."
"Well, I'm basically in the bureau during the day, and I'm only at home on weekends. It's normal that you don't see me. Why am I here to see you?"
"Isn't the courtyard we live in now part of the factory? I see there is an empty room in the backyard, the one next to the deaf old lady. I have younger brothers and sisters who are already grown up. It is not suitable to live together. Let's see. Can you give me that house?" Luo Xingchen said.
"That's it, you made a special trip. Let me tell you the truth. The house you mentioned actually belongs to the deaf old lady. Otherwise, why hasn't the factory arranged for anyone to live in it?"
"So that's it. I thought it was from the factory. It would be easier if it belonged to the deaf old lady."
The two had a meal in the cafeteria at noon, and Luo Xingchen drove back to the branch. On the way, Luo Xingchen exchanged some gifts at the system mall.
After get off work in the afternoon, Luo Xingchen went directly to the deaf old lady's house with gifts.
"What are you doing?"
"Old lady, I won't beat around the bush with you. I went to the factory today to ask about the vacant room next door to you. Director Yang told me that the room actually belongs to you. So I came to see you as soon as I got off work. . You have also seen that Lele is 16 years old this year, and she has been living in the same room with Doudou, so I want to buy your room."
"Hey, for this matter, you are specifically carrying a gift. Didn't Lele tell you? I told her last year. I gave her that room. I thought she told you." said the old lady.
"Lele should be afraid that I will tell her something. Since you are willing, that would be the best. Look at how much money I need to give you."
"What kind of money are you giving? I'm giving it to her, not you. When I die, my room will be reserved for Doudou." The deaf old lady waved her hand and said.
"Old lady, I don't understand what you are trying to do. If nothing else happens, they will join the army as soon as they reach 18 years old. It will be uncertain what will happen then. You are still willing to give your house to them." Luo Xingchen asked in confusion.
"Don't worry about it. I know what kind of people they are. Besides, I only left my house to them so that after I die, someone will burn some paper money for me every Qingming Festival. When I really can't move, You don’t need to take care of them, after all, they have their own things to be busy with.”
"I have already made an agreement with Mr. and Mrs. Zhonghai. When they serve me, all the belongings I have saved over the years will be returned to them. I have also made it clear to them about the house." The deaf old lady and Luo Xingchen explained .
"Since you have already made a plan, it's okay. Again, I won't get involved in what's going on between you. You won't miss anything when you come to my house. I know what you've done to them over the years, and they don't either. Not that kind of white-eyed wolf character."
"Haha, I still know this, old lady."
"That's okay. I'll go over and bring you some snacks. You can eat it yourself without leaving it for them. They have no shortage of food."
"I know, just wait a minute and I'll give you the key over there."
After Luo Xingchen took the key, he returned to the house.
"What did you do next door when you came back?" Fan Shasha asked.
"I asked about the house. Lele is already 16. We can't let them live together forever. I just didn't expect that the house next door to the old lady actually belonged to her. I thought it belonged to the factory, so I went to the factory to ask. You won’t know until you get it.”
"How about that, does the old lady agree?"
"This old lady told Lele last year that she would give her that house to live in. Lele was probably afraid that we would say anything about her, so she never spoke."
"Where are they?" Luo Xingchen asked.
"I don't know where Lele should be in the rain. Doudou probably reconciled and played with them again." Fan Shasha replied.
"Mom, I'd better be good, I won't run around." Kaixin said quickly.
"Yes, yes, you are the best. My aunt and uncle are disobedient. We are happy and don't want to imitate them. You have to listen to your parents, right?"
"I listen to my parents the most." Kaixin replied.
"Haha, you will go to school in two years, and then you won't be able to follow your mother." Fan Shasha said with a smile.
"Is it the same as my aunt and uncle?"
"Yes, I go to school in the morning and go home in the afternoon."
Luo Xingchen smiled and went out to look at the house over there.
