Xiao Hongyan's milk was decreasing day by day, all because

of the hot weather. It was too hot to drink hot soup and even the appetite had decreased.

Fortunately, there was barely enough milk for her daughter.

Before, she had too much milk and her daughter couldn't finish it. She had to

pump milk once a day.

She didn't dare to touch it when she had breastfeeding pain

for the first time, but Wang Licheng helped her solve it. Wang Licheng said he

likes to drink milk.

This was originally just a word to tease Xiao Hongyan. But

Xiao Hongyan took it seriously and would give him a cup of milk every day.

The first time he saw the human milk in the cup, he was

disappointed. In fact, he didn’t want to drink it himself. Later, when Xiao

Hongyan gave him milk again, he got used to it; just drinking it as pure milk

and the taste was also similar.

If the decrease in milk is bad news, the good news is that

her figure has recovered. Xiao Hongyan didn't deliberately lose weight for her

daughter but she lost weight because she couldn't eat because of the heat.

In order to solve the problem of insufficient milk, Liu

Fengzhen asked many old people and tried to make several kinds of soups that

were not too greasy. After Xiao Hongyan drank for a few days, the milk did not

continue to decrease.

At the end of August, Liu Hongmei and Zeng Lihua brought

good news to Xiao Hongyan.

"Hongyan, this time Lihua and her Municipal Party

Committee Propaganda Department are recruiting people. It's a rare opportunity.

Do you want to go in?" The old man nods Xiao Hongyan into the propaganda

department. It just so happened that Zeng Lihua is also in the propaganda

department, so he could also take care of her.

The Propaganda Department is short of people this time and

many leaders want to put people in. At first, when Zeng Lihua told her that

their publicity department was recruiting, she immediately thought of Xiao

Hongyan. She told Zeng Lihua about it and she agreed. It's just that they

haven't had time to tell Xiao Hongyan that they have heard that the position

has been assigned to Vice Mayor Li.

What they are lacking this time is the literature and

education department, which is just right for Xiao Hongyan who has been a

teacher. The only shortcoming of Xiao Hongyan is that she is not a party member,

but it is the same after entering the party.

They are not qualified to compete with the deputy mayor;

they can only ask the old man. The last time the two children had an accident,

the old man went and met Wang Licheng and he had a good impression of him.

Before they even informed Xiao Hongyan, they had already

helped her settle the job. The purpose of their visit this time was to convince

Xiao Hongyan to work in the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party

Committee.

"The Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party

Committee?" Is that what she can enter whenever she wants? Zeng Lihua also

works in the propaganda department and her husband Xue Zhiyong is the mayor's

secretary; so it is not surprising that she, a plain-headed ordinary person,

can work in a government department casually.

"Yes, Lihua works there. This time there is a shortage

of people in the Department of Culture and Education. The Department of Culture

and Education is mainly responsible for the contact and coordination of

cultural and educational work. You are just right. This opportunity is a rare

opportunity." Liu Hongmei was a little impatient. She told the old man

that Xiao Hongyan wanted to work in the propaganda department; if Xiao Hongyan

refuses to go, she couldn't bear the old man's anger.

If it's an ordinary person, she doesn't need to say much

about this kind of thing; thousands of people are willing to go. She is not so

sure about Wang Licheng and his wife.

She still clearly remembered the expression on Wang

Licheng's face when he rejected Xue Zhiyong's 90 Yuan.

Her daughter is almost five months old. She has long been

bored at home and really wants to go out to find a job.

"Can I really go in?" She felt a little weird and

needed to make sure.

"If you can come in, go back and discuss with Wang

Licheng. Does he agree to your coming to work?" This is the key to their

coming this time. Xiao Hongyan must have Wang Licheng's support when she wants

to work. If Wang Licheng does not agree, this matter will be not good.

I didn't have to settle down in such a hurry at first, how

could I know that this job suddenly became a sweet pastry?

In the evening, Xiao Hongyan was sitting on the sofa in the

living room downstairs watching TV and waiting for Wang Licheng. Although Wang

Licheng had already agreed with her to go out to work, she should still tell

him about it first. And she found that Liu Hongmei and Zeng Lihua were very

attentive to her work, so dedicated, not like ordinary friends.

The factory has been rushing production these days, the goods

will be delivered tomorrow and they must be loaded and shipped tonight; so I

came back a little late.

When he arrived at the door of the house, he found that the

living room lights were on, and there were voices coming from the TV.

"Why are you still downstairs so late, Xixi?"

Xiao Hongyan got up and took the bag in his hand and asked

him to change into sandals and slippers.

"I just fed her my milk and she’s sleeping

upstairs." She also just came down from the upstairs.

"Mom is watching her?" After drinking a cup of

herbal tea poured by Xiao Hongyan, she leaned comfortably on the sofa, still at

home.

"Well." After dinner, she took her daughter to

play in the living room. At eight o'clock, she and her mother-in-law helped her

daughter take a bath and her mother-in-law took her daughter to her room to

play. An hour ago, the mother-in-law took her daughter down for milk and after

the milk; the mother-in-law carried her away again. She went up to see it just

now. In their room, her mother-in-law looked at her, and her daughter was

already asleep.

"Licheng, I want to go out to work."

"Are you going to go out to work now? Xixi is only four

months old." Didn't she say she would go out to work when her daughter was

older?

"Sister Hongmei and Sister Lihua came to see me today,

saying that there is a shortage of people in the propaganda department. Let me

discuss with you." She didn't go to work in another place. Besides, her

daughter is almost five months old, so she will bring her when she is

breastfeeding at home, my mother-in-law looked after her daughter more than

her.

She thought that sooner or later she would go out to work

and sooner or later her daughter would be brought up by her mother-in-law, so

she did not compete with her mother-in-law to bring her daughter.

When she had just given birth, her mother-in-law said that

she would take the baby to sleep at night and she would bring her to breastfeed

when she was hungry but Wang Licheng refused. His reason was to disturb the

mother-in-law to rest.

This may be just one aspect. On the other hand, she thinks

that Wang Licheng wants to sleep with his daughter more.

"When are you going to work?" He took a sip of

tea, suppressed his shock and asked Xiao Hongyan pretending to be calm.

No words can express Wang Licheng's mood at the moment, Xiao

Hongyan is finally going to enter politics. He has been looking forward to this

day for a long time. He has been looking forward to it since he knew that she

is the Xiao Hongyan. He is afraid that because of his appearance, Xiao

Hongyan's future will be delayed.

"Sister Hongmei and the others didn't say anything in

detail. We'll talk to them after we've discussed it." He just didn't agree

to her going out to work! When she suddenly jumped to work, she wondered if

there was something wrong with her ears.

"I have no opinion; you can go whenever you want."

As long as she can enter politics, he absolutely respects her ideas.

"Licheng, why did Sister Hongmei and Sister Lihua help

us like this?" I used to go to their store to buy things and now I help

her find a job.

"Didn't I tell you that I saved their children?"

Wang Licheng also saved two lives. At that time, only Wang

Licheng was nearby. After he saw the two children drowning, Wang Licheng jumped

for the first time. If it wasn't for Wang Licheng, those two children would be

much less fortunate.

"Didn't you say it was saved?" He said it too

casually before, she didn't think about how dangerous the situation was.

"It was easy. At that time, the situation was critical

and there was no one around. After saving people, I fainted on the spot. If you

can bear the kindness of their family, you should bear it and if you can't bear

it, tell me." Wang Li became their partner. In order to repay Wang

Licheng, they arranged for Xiao Hongyan to enter politics.

He felt that he was a little confused. If Wang Licheng died

because of saving people, who would marry Xiao Hongyan, and how did Xiao

Hongyan get on the career path?

Can't figure it out, can't figure it out! Anyway, Xiao

Hongyan is about to enter politics, everything is still on the right track;

nothing has changed because of his appearance.

"You passed out, why didn't you tell me, was it

dangerous at the time, and are you feeling unwell now?" She asked eagerly.

After Wang Licheng explained this, she also understood why

Liu Hongmei and Zeng Lihua were so good to them. I just heard that he passed

out at the time and was a little scared.

"It's okay. After a sleep in the hospital, everything

was normal and I was discharged immediately. You can make up your own mind

about your work. I agree with you going to work in the propaganda department. You

don't have to worry about Xixi. Mom will take care of her."

One step has been taken, and I hope she will be more

successful in the future.

Liu Hongmei moved quickly. After Xiao Hongyan answered her,

the work was arranged immediately. The commissioner of the Cultural and

Education Section Office of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party

Committee will officially go to work on September 1.

In order to let Xiao Hongyan adapt as soon as possible, Zeng

Lihua greeted the section chief of their culture and education department and

Xiao Hongyan was brought to work on her first day at work. It was this move

that made everyone in the department know that there was someone on her head.

Every time Xiao Hongyan asks a colleague if she doesn't understand something,

her colleague will answer her enthusiastically.

Everything is fine at work, but I feel sleepy and tired. She

has to breastfeed her daughter every night and can't sleep well. Now she is at

work and can't make up her sleep at home during the day. Other colleagues can

sleep for a while at noon, and she has to breastfeed her daughter when she

comes home at noon.

On the second week off after work, Xiao Hongyan slept at

home all day. She didn't care about her daughter. When she was hungry, her

mother-in-law carried her to breastfeed and when she was full; she carried her

to her mother-in-law and continued to sleep. Didn't even eat breakfast and

lunch.

Liu Fengzhen called her son back in the afternoon. The daughter-in-law's

situation was not right. She asked her son to come back and take her to the

hospital.

"Hongyan, Hongyan, wake up, don't sleep." Mom

called and told him that Xiao Hongyan had slept for a day without eating and

Xiao Hongyan was still asleep when he left in the morning. They usually get up

together. This weekend, he thought that she was lucky to go to work; she

finally took a rest and it was normal to sleep in late so he didn't think much

about it.

"Licheng, what time is it, I'm so hungry." She was

woken up by Wang Licheng. When she woke up and saw that it was Wang Licheng, he

had already come back; no wonder she felt so hungry, it should be time for

dinner.

"It's four o'clock. Are you sick? Tell me if you're not

feeling well. Let's go to the hospital."

It's only four o'clock. Why did he come back so early and

think she was sick enough to go the hospital?

"I'm not sick, but I'm sleepy and want to sleep."

It was really hard to take her daughter to work again. She insisted on it for a

few more months. When her daughter was old and weaned and could eat the staple

food, she would be relieved.

"You've slept all day and haven't eaten, so you're

really not sick?" She did look exhausted. Since going to work, her spirit

has been a lot worse. Every time he asks, she says that she is tired and just

sleeps.

He was worried about her health and couldn't stop her from

working. Today, his mother called him; he hung up the phone and rushed home.

"I'm not sick, just sleepy."

"How can you be so sleepy, you have slept for a day?"

"You can't sleep well every night for two days."

Wang Licheng slept better than her. When Luo Zhongyong asked for leave, he

slept at home for a day and a half, with no meals. Before going downstairs to

eat, she brought it to him and went back to sleep immediately after eating.

"Why can't I sleep well at night, is it insomnia?"

He didn't know why.

"Insomnia, you big head, you have to feed your daughter

in the middle of the night and pat her back to sleep. It's strange if she can

sleep well." She was angry when she talked about this, why his sleep was

so good, and her daughter woke up crying every night, Wang Li Cheng was never

awakened once.

"Xixi wants to drink milk at night?"

“Do you think that you have to feed once or twice a night; you

sleep like a pig every time and you don't wake up from the noise."

After Wang Licheng knew that his daughter was going to drink

milk in the middle of the night, he knew the good days are over. He took the

initiative to take over the job of taking milk and sleeping for his daughter.
