"Uncle Lin, Uncle Wang, Aunt Gao, Aunt Feng, I'll help you take care of my sister-in-law." Shui Bingyue bowed sincerely to everyone.
Everyone marveled at her good memory. After all, at the beginning, everyone introduced themselves in a flurry of words, but she didn't expect that she could tell the difference clearly.
Shui Bokang watched in his fourth uncle's arms as his sister-in-law chatted with all the adults with ease, and was filled with admiration. He also wants to become like his aunt.
Soon, Bai Lu's entry procedures were completed, and she was still at the candy counter. Since she was Shui Jianshe's sister-in-law, Shui Bingyue and Bo Kang helped her with diplomacy, and everyone was very friendly to her.
The master of Shui Jianshe said to Bai Lu: "You are really lucky. My sister-in-law and son have been helping you."
"I think so too. I will definitely cherish everything I have now."
Because she used to often stay in department stores with her father, Bai Lu was no stranger to how to sell things, and she quickly got the hang of it.
When some regular customers came to buy things, they even asked her: "Sister, I have never seen you before. Where is the little comrade who sold candy here before?"
"He has gone to another unit, and I will be here from now on."
"So that's it." The little girl shopping was still quite disappointed. After all, Shui Jianshe looks so upright, like a movie star, that one look at him makes him feel like he's earned a profit.
When Shui Bingyue and Bo Kang started working in Bailu, they followed Shui Jianshe to the Cultural Palace. It was really lively inside. Everything is available.
"Fourth brother, is this where you learned to play an instrument?"
"Yes, there are many great people here. But in two days I have to report to the Provincial Art Troupe, so I won't have a chance to come here again."
While the two were talking, someone came up from behind and patted Shui Jianshe on the shoulder: "Why haven't you been here in the past two days?"
He turned back to look at the person who came and politely replied: "Teacher Zhang, I received the admission notice from the Provincial Art Troupe. I have been busy handing over work these two days, so I don't have time to come over."
"Then I sincerely congratulate you. You are the most talented student I have ever seen. You must continue to learn and improve yourself."
After he finished speaking, he noticed two little ones standing next to Shui Jianshe. He squatted down and chatted with them: "Do you like it here?"
"I like it. Are you my fourth brother's teacher? You look really elegant." Shui Bingyue praised.
Teacher Zhang touched the little girl's head and said with a smile: "You can talk more than your fourth brother. But he often praises you to us, and it seems that you are well-deserved. You are very popular."
Then he looked at Shui Bokang: "I see you are carrying a harmonica at such a young age. Can you play it?"
"Yes, but I don't play well."
"Then you play a tune and I'll listen."
Shui Jianshe is helpless, but Teacher Zhang is like this. He likes to discover good talents who love music.
Shui Bokang took out his harmonica from its case and played a song called Little Star.
Teacher Zhang applauded the little guy: "Very good. If you like music, you must keep studying."
He looked at his watch and said goodbye to the three of them: "I still have classes to attend, so I won't talk to you any more."
"Goodbye, Teacher Zhang." Shui Jianshe and the others said goodbye politely.
After Teacher Zhang left, the three of them continued a brief stroll around the Cultural Palace before coming out together.
"It's almost noon, shall we go have dinner together? What do you want to eat?" Shuijian pushed two children on a bicycle.
"What does the hotel have?" Shui Bingyue asked curiously.
"Beef with soy sauce, braised pork, meat buns, beef noodles, mutton noodles, Yangchun noodles, three delicacies dumplings, but it is true that they are not available every day. Let's go to the place first."
The three of them soon arrived at the state-owned hotel. On the small blackboard in front of the door, it was written that today's offerings were: soy sauce beef, beef noodles, fish-flavored shredded pork, stir-fried cabbage, dumplings, and white rice.
Shui Jianshe parked his bicycle and took the two little guys into the restaurant. According to their preferences, he ordered a plate of beef with soy sauce, a plate of fish-flavored shredded pork, and two portions of rice.
After everything was brought to the table, I asked for an extra empty bowl. The two children couldn't eat a bowl of rice, so they ate separately.
Shui Bokang was still young after all, so Shui Jianshe held him in his arms and fed him vegetables. The little guy ate it with gusto.
Shui Bingyue asked her nephew seriously: "Do you like beef very much?"
"Yes, I think beef is the most delicious meat. This is my first time eating it. It would be great if I could eat it more often."
"This is not easy. After all, bison are difficult to catch. People raise cattle mainly to help them with work, so beef is rare." Shui Jianshe told the truth.
When the three of them were enjoying their meal, another group of people walked into the state-owned hotel. They were wearing uniform work clothes and had happy smiles on their faces.
Listening to those people chatting, Shui Bingyue understood that these people were workers at the power plant. More importantly, it seems that the power plant has plans to recruit people recently.
The eldest son of Accountant Feng's family has also reached the age where he should work. These days, he has been trying to ask his father to find a job for his son. But this kind of thing is hard to come by, and it's not that easy.
Shui Bingyue finished her meal, walked to the table of workers, and greeted politely: "Brothers, which factory are you workers in? They look great."
A handsome young man with short hair looked at her with a gentle smile on his face: "My little sister is so sweet. We are workers at Dongfeng Power Plant. We have good treatment and high wages there. It's really great."
"What are the requirements to become one of you?"
"We are all professionally trained personnel with professional skills. Currently we are short of front-line staff.
All you need is a junior high school diploma, good health, and the ability to endure hardships and stand hard work. Little sister, you seem to have a good family situation, why do you care about this issue? "
After all, Shui Bingyue has several brothers who buy clothes for her, and they never wear anything that doesn't look good. People rely on clothes, and she is no different from a well-off city girl.
"I'm just curious. After all, I often hear people say that labor is the most glorious. I want to know, besides salesmen, drivers, steel factory workers, and garment factory workers, what other workers do we have here?"
"Children's ideas are different from those of adults. Our factory is recruiting people until the end of the month. Anyone who is interested in it, including your neighbors, can come and try." A thin man wearing glasses told the little girl.
"Thank you, brother. You are all good people. I wish you a happy meal and I won't disturb you." Shui Bingyue thanked her and returned to her table.
Shui Jianshe asked his sister: "Are you full? No more food will be ordered without us."
"I'm full. Is fourth brother full?"
