Su Wen first sent Wang Qianqian to work at the steel rolling mill, watched her walk into the office, and then left with peace of mind.
Back in Sujiacun, Su Wen first stored 2,000 kilograms of sweet potato noodles and 1,000 kilograms of corn flour in his home. These grains are carefully selected by him to ensure that they can meet the daily needs of farming in the mountains. He knew that part of the food would be eaten by the villagers, but in order to have a reasonable provenance for the materials he took out from the space, he always pretended not to know about it.
After handling the food matter, Su Wen returned home. He sat down and talked with his parents about the idea of taking his mother to the city to take care of Wang Qianqian.
"Dad, Mom, I want to take my mother to the city. I want my mother to take care of Qianqian. Qianqian is getting older and older, and I don't feel comfortable leaving her at home by herself." Su Wen said frankly.
His father, Su Weiguo, was silent for a moment and then said, "Awen, your mother is getting older and her health is not as good as before. Can she get used to the life in the city? If not, you can go to Dawangzhuang to pick up your mother-in-law. She is in good health. You Picking her up can save food for her family, and there will be no conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
Su Wen nodded, agreeing with his father's idea. "Okay, no problem. Then I'll go to the village chief to load the eggs and then go to Dawangzhuang to find my mother-in-law."
"Okay, please slow down on the road and pay attention to safety." The parents walked Su Wen to the gate together.
Su Wen rode his bicycle to the village chief's house. He saw Su Wen coming and warmly invited him to sit in the room.
"Village chief, I'm here to get the eggs for the past few days." Su Wen said straight to the point.
"Okay, I'll get it for you right now." The village chief said, turning and walking towards the east wing. After a while, the village chief brought out four baskets of eggs.
Su Wen looked at the four baskets of eggs in front of him and asked, "Why are there so many village chiefs this time?"
The village chief looked a little embarrassed: "Su Wen, you know that half of the grain you left was divided by the villagers and not all was used to raise chickens, right? The extra eggs were supplied to you by the village."
"Village Chief, this is too much, I can't accept it." Su Wen said with some embarrassment.
"Su Wen, the food you left saved everyone's lives, and these eggs are also a little bit of everyone's thoughts. Just accept them, you're welcome." The village chief said firmly.
"Okay, I'll accept it. Thank you everyone." Su Wen said gratefully.
The village chief smiled: "You're welcome, this is everyone's consideration. If you need help in the future, please let me know anytime."
Su Wen nodded, said goodbye to the village chief, and left the village chief's house on his bicycle. When he arrived at Dawangzhuang, Su Wen only had half a basket of eggs left in his car, and he put the rest into his own space.
Su Wen came to his father-in-law's house in Dawangzhuang. He explained his intention to his father-in-law and his mother-in-law, and expressed the hope that she could go to the city to take care of Wang Qianqian.
The mother-in-law happily agreed to Su Wen. Firstly, she felt sorry for her daughter, and secondly, she could save food for one person in the family.
After Su Wen left ten yuan and ten eggs for his father-in-law's family, he took his mother-in-law back to the city. Su Wen took his mother-in-law back to the city and settled her at home.
"Mother-in-law, you take a rest at home first. I'll go to work and hand over the eggs." Su Wen took home a dozen eggs, explained where the food was stored at home, and asked his mother-in-law to cook some food. "
After explaining the things at home, Su Wen pushed his bicycle and took half a basket of eggs to the recycling station. After coming out of the recycling station, Su Wen had 65.5 yuan more in his hand. Seven or eight people followed him to escort him outside the gate.
Su Wen got on his bicycle and waved goodbye to them. He found an uninhabited corner by the moat, took out four baskets of eggs from the space, tied them to the bicycle and took them back to the rolling mill.
Su Wen handed four baskets of eggs to Section Chief Li, and then said: "Chief Li, this is my task for this month."
Li Aiguo looked at the four bamboo baskets full of eggs with a satisfied smile on his face. He patted Su Wen on the shoulder and said: "Awen, you have completed your tasks well this month. Keep up the good work. However, as the deputy section chief of the Procurement Department, you can't just focus on your own task load, but you must also do more. Help Corey’s comrades who can’t complete the task.”
"Section Chief, aren't you here? Please worry about Corey's affairs. My wife is about to give birth and I don't have much energy to focus on Corey's affairs." Su Wen said sincerely.
After hearing this, Li Aiguo nodded to express his understanding. He patted Su Wen on the shoulder and said, "Awen, don't worry and take care of your wife. I will try my best to handle Corey's affairs."
"Thank you, section chief. If you need me anywhere, you can tell me at any time." Su Wen said gratefully.
"Okay, Awen, if necessary, I will come to you at any time. If nothing happens, just go back first." Section Chief Li suggested kindly.
Su Wen nodded, said goodbye to Section Chief Li, and went to the Finance Department to pick up Wang Qianqian.
As soon as Su Wen entered the door, Sister Li, who was sitting next to Wang Qianqian, saw him and said to Wang Qianqian, "Qianqian, your family is here to see you, have you been showing off your affection in front of me, a middle-aged aunt, all day long? ?”
"Sister Li, please be merciful. I'm here to ask Qianqian for pregnancy leave. I won't come tomorrow."
After hearing Su Wen's words, Sister Li suddenly realized. She smiled and said, "Oh, so that's it. Then go find the section chief, he just came in." Sister Li pointed to the door of the section chief's office with her chin.
Su Wen nodded gratefully to Sister Li. He walked to the door of the section chief's office and knocked on the door.
"Please come in." The voice of the finance section chief came from inside.
Su Wen opened the door and saw Chief Li of the Finance Department sitting at his desk processing documents. He walked over and said, "Chief Li, I'm here to ask for pregnancy leave for my wife."
Section Chief Li raised his head and looked at Su Wen. He put down the document in his hand with a smile on his face, "Awen, there is a leave application form on the table. Just take it and ask your wife to fill it out and send it over."
After hearing this, Su Wen walked to the table and picked up the leave application form. After reading it, he nodded, "Okay, Section Chief Li, I'll ask Qianqian to fill it out and send it over."
Section Chief Li smiled and nodded in agreement.
Su Wen walked out of the section chief's office with the leave application form in hand, came to Wang Qianqian, and handed the leave application form to her, "Qianqian, this is the leave application form. After you fill it out, I will take it to Section Chief Li to sign."
Wang Qianqian took the leave application form, filled in her information carefully, and then handed it to Su Wen. Su Wen took the leave application form and checked it carefully. After confirming that it was correct, he walked into the section chief's office again and handed the leave application form to Section Chief Li.
Section Chief Li took the leave application form, read it carefully, and nodded, "Okay, Awen, I have signed it. You can take your wife back."
"Thank you, Chief Li." Su Wen said gratefully.
Section Chief Li smiled and shook his head, "You're welcome, Awen. Take good care of your wife. Remember to send me wedding candies after the baby is born."
Su Wen nodded and smiled: "Definitely, definitely. Thank you, Chief Li."
