"Xiao Tang, thanks to you this time, you are a great contributor to our factory!"
At noon, Minister Niu hosted a banquet in the canteen of the factory. He was full of compliments. The smile on Director Qian's face never faded. He seemed to have seen the bright and brilliant future of Qianjin Factory.
Tang Niannian and Shen Xiao were very calm, and——
"Minister Niu, when will the bonus be distributed?"
Tang Niannian didn't want to hear compliments, she just wanted the bonus.
Minister Niu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Look at my memory, the money is in the bag!"
He hurriedly took out two piles of money from his bag, both of which were brand new and sealed. They had obviously just been taken out of the bank.
"Xiao Tang, you really don't want to work in our factory? You don't have to come every day, just come here when you have something to do. The salary and benefits are no problem."
Minister Niu still wanted to persuade Tang Niannian to join the factory.
Tang Niannian took the money and refused without mercy: "If you have anything in the factory, you can contact me through Director Qian. As long as I can spare time, I will be on call and the bonus will be good!"
She said it very straightforwardly, as long as the money was in place, everything would be easy.
If she really goes to work in a steam turbine factory, she will probably have troubles in the future. Big factories have good benefits and there are many monsters and ghosts. Tang Niannian is not afraid of trouble, but she is too lazy to bother.
Tang Niannian handed over the important task of contacting the intermediary to Director Qian. Director Qian was very happy and said hurriedly: "Minister Niu, be assured, I will definitely not delay the production of the steam turbine factory."
Minister Niu was a little disappointed, but not too disappointed. He had already sent people to Tangcun to find Mr. Zhang. Xiao Tang is such an amazing student, so the teacher should be even more amazing, right?
The trouble at the steam turbine factory was solved. Director Qian returned to Zhucheng after dinner. Tang Niannian did not return. She had to meet Shen Xiao's uncle Fu Qinghan.
Fu Qinghan is fifteen years older than Shen Xiao. He once studied in Europe and is now an engineer at a shipyard. He is an unmarried young man.
"Uncle has always wanted to see you. He is very nice."
On the way to see Fu Qinghan, Shen Xiao briefly introduced his uncle's situation.
In short, Fu Qinghan was a handsome and powerful young man from a wealthy family. Tang Niannian remembered that Fu Qinghan was too weak in his previous life and died of illness before Shen Xiao.
The reason why Fu Qinghan was so sick and weak was that grandpa Shen Xiao's stepwife was also Fu Qinghan's evil stepmother and the biological mother of Shen Xiao's evil stepmother.
This stepmother had abused Fu Qinghan since he was a child and even made him kneel in the ice and snow all night.
Fu Qinghan almost froze to death that time. Although he was rescued, the root cause of the disease was left. He would get sick every year at the turn of spring and autumn. It can be said that none of Fu Qinghan's internal organs were in good condition.
Fu Qinghan lived in the shipyard dormitory. Shen Xiao drove to the shipyard gate and showed his military officer ID card.
"I am Fu Gong's nephew!"
The guard recognized him and was very polite. He let them go after registering and called the design department.
When Tang Niannian and the others walked to the office building, Fu Qinghan came down.
Wearing glasses, wearing a white shirt that is not old, with the collar buttoned tightly, a light gray woolen vest with a sweetheart collar, and blue trousers underneath, a very simple outfit that can be worn on Fu Qinghan , but he exudes the temperament of a noble man from the Republic of China.
It's just that Fu Qinghan is too thin, his waist is thinner than many girls, his skin is pale, his lips are very light, and he is obviously weak.
"Xiao Xiao, cough cough..."
Fu Qinghan saw his nephew from a distance and was very happy. He walked over quickly, but he started coughing because of shortness of breath.
He clenched his hands into fists, covered his mouth, and coughed several times. His pale cheeks showed a bit of blush, which made him even more pitiful.
The corner of Tang Niannian's mouth twitched. She actually looked at an old man, and I felt pity for her when I saw her.
These two uncles and nephews, one black and one white, one strong and one weak, one civilized and one martial, really look very different!
"Uncle, she is Nian Nian."
Shen Xiao made a grand introduction, and his cold face became very warm.
"Xiao Tang, I am Uncle Xiao Xiao. Thank you for taking care of him before!"
Fu Qinghan suddenly bowed, which was what he had always wanted to do.
He was only in his twenties when his nephew disappeared, and he had been studying abroad for many years. His domestic foundation was unstable and he didn't have many connections. At that time, he was like a headless fly, unable to find out the whereabouts of Xiao Xiao.
He even thought that Xiao Xiao was... gone.
Fortunately, Xiao Xiao met the Wild Wolf couple and was rescued by Tang Niannian's grandparents. After Shen Xiao was brought back, he told Fu Qinghan about his experiences in those years. He wanted to go to Tang Niannian's family to express his gratitude.
But at that time, because of his experience studying abroad, he was censored by the superiors and could not leave the capital. He was also afraid of causing trouble to Tang Niannian's family. This wish has never been realized.
"You're welcome, my family."
Tang Niannian helped Fu Qinghan, she wouldn't have saved him if it had been anyone else!
Fu Qinghan bowed halfway but failed because he was too weak, so he had to straighten up. But he thought in his heart that he would never get married in this life, so he should give his half of the Fu family's property to Xiao Tang.
"Come and sit at my place."
Fu Qinghan invited them to sit at home. People were coming and going downstairs in the office building, making it inconvenient to talk.
The dormitory building in the shipyard is quite good, and Fu Qinghan is an important technical staff and is well treated. He is given a three-bedroom apartment with a separate toilet and bathroom.
But the room was very simply decorated, with only tables, chairs, beds, and two huge desks. They were filled with Chinese and foreign books. Tang Niannian only glanced at them and knew they were shipbuilding materials.
“Coffee or tea!”
Fu Qinghan asked with a smile.
"coffee!"
Tang Niannian did not hesitate. She preferred drinking coffee to tea.
It's just that in this era, even if you have money, you can't buy coffee unless you use overseas remittance coupons to buy it at overseas Chinese stores.
However, overseas remittance coupons are so precious that they will only be issued when family members of overseas Chinese receive foreign exchange, or foreign staff who come to work in China.
Some overseas Chinese family members will take out some overseas remittance coupons and sell them on the black market, but the amount is not large.
There was coffee in Tang Niannian's space, as well as a coffee machine and coffee beans, but she was too lazy to make it herself. She always made instant coffee, which was far inferior to hand-ground coffee.
Fu Qinghan took out the coffee machine. He studied in Europe and his eating habits were influenced by that country. He loved drinking coffee and eating bread.
Not long after, the strong aroma of coffee came from the room. Tang Niannian took a deep breath. It was this smell that she hadn't smelled in a long time.
"Come and try my handiwork!"
Fu Qinghan made two cups, one for himself and one for Tang Niannian. The one for Shen Xiao was malted milk.
He couldn't bear it.
Coffee beans were so hard to come by that he spent all his monthly overseas remittance coupons on it, and even if he drank it for Shen Xiao, it would be nothing but peonies. No matter what he drank, he would always get bored.
Shen Xiao didn't like to drink the bitter concoction, and he couldn't understand why his uncle liked to drink the bitter concoction. The sweet malted milk tasted so good.
“It smells so good!”
Tang Niannian took a sip and praised it sincerely. It tasted amazing.
"nice! You love it!"
Fu Qinghan smiled happily.
After drinking a cup of coffee, Shen Xiao said goodbye. Fu Qinghan was very busy at work and in poor health. If it took up too much of his working time, he would have to work overtime at night.
"Nian Nian, this is for you!"
Fu Qinghan entered the bedroom and came out after a while. He had a black cross in his hand, but it was only half of it. It looked like a pendant.
