Xu Nannan felt that this man was ill-fated, and he could choke on her mouth. Before getting on the train, when she was about to lie down in the car comfortably, suddenly the man appeared in the carriage.
The man threw their luggage on the bunk and climbed up to the bunk numbly. The moment he turned around, his eyes met with Xu Nannan.
Xu Nannan was stunned for a second, and instantly turned over and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
“Oh, you’re the same person, lipstick lady before!” the man said excitedly, as if it was noisy to the people below, he explained, “I have met an acquaintance from before, and I am very excited. Comrade, don’t be surprised.”
Xu Nannan thought, who is an acquaintance to you?
The man turned to her, “You didn’t fall asleep, you opened your eyes when you saw me. If you don’t remember, I’m the one who bought lipstick in Shanghai before.”
Can she even forget about lipstick incident? She is allergic to this word now. Xu Nannan turned over with a sour look on her face. She laid on her stomach and said, “I’m going to rest, can you stop making noise?” She really couldn’t have a good impression of this kind of jumpy young man.
Seeing that Xu Nannan was upset, the other party shut up.
After Xu Nannan fell asleep, he soon chatted with the people in the other bunks. In that tone that makes people who haven’t met him think they are familiar with him.
It’s a pity that this guy doesn’t do sales.
Ah, that’s not right, he doesn’t do purchases these years. He begs to shop.
Xu Nannan didn’t want to get in touch with the man, so she always laid on the bunk pretending to sleep, and went to Taobao to pass the time.
After a few gaps and hearing a few people chatting, Xu Nannan heard that this young man was not unruly in chatting. The topic always centered about Annan City intentionally or unintentionally.
During the period, he asked everyone in the carriage to eat a meal of black-faced steamed buns without food stamps. This is what everyone is very grateful for. Xu Nannan also has a copy. People have done this, and it will be inhumane to refuse people thousands of miles away with a cold face.
Xu Nannan thanked him, and took a meal with a boiled water.
He seemed to feel that eating with people would make her mouth soft, so the man started chatting with Xu Nannan again.
“So you also went to Shanghai to play?”
Xu Nannan nodded perfunctorily.
Seeing that Xu Nannan really didn’t like him, he frowned, then he took out a small mirror from his bag for a long time. He took a close look at his face. It’s not that bad looking.
Presumably, he feels that they will meet again, for it is fate. The man always pays more attention to Xu Nannan than to others.
As soon as Xu Nannan woke up, he asked Xu Nannan to chat. At other times, he chatted with other people.
Until the car reached Annan City and it was about to get off, Xu Nannan found that this man, the most she knows about him from the time he’s getting in to the carriage and getting out of the carriage, but never mentioned his own name.
He is not a common person.
Xu Nannan secretly said to herself, this is more reason for her to keep distance from such people.
When they arrived in Annan City, it was still after 7 o’clock in the morning, and Xu Nannan didn’t delay, so she went straight to the station and took the bus to Nanjiang County.
The man kept following behind, “Are you living in Nanjiang City?”
Xu Nannan couldn’t understand what perseverance he used to persist until now, and turned to look at him, “Comrade, we are not familiar with each other, even if you asked me to buy something, I still don’t know you.” Even if they are acquaintances, how many acquaintances do the salespersons have? They are almost familiar with everyone.
“It turns out that you ignored me because you didn’t know me. My name is Lin Qingsong, let’s be friends now.” Lin Qingsong said with a smile. So he said, he’s not that annoying, right? It’s impossible for people to be annoying to this point. Knowing that it was for this reason, he hadn’t struggled along the way.
Since childhood, he had been popular with girls. He couldn’t be disgusting to look at when meeting new people. And now, he feels uncomfortable at last.
Xu Nannan was also speechless, feeling that the generation gap was too big. “Okay, then, Comrade Lin Qingsong, I will see you again, and there will be no deadline.” After speaking, she smiled, and took her bag and walked away.
“Hey, you haven’t introduced your name yet.” Lin Qingsong shouted from behind. He was about to go out of the station with her, when a big hand behind him, grabbed his shoulder, “Where are you going?” said the voice which was a bit harsh.
Lin Qingsong’s shoulders stiffened, and a smile that was ugly was on his face as he turned back, “Big brother.”
Because of the task to be handed in, Xu Nannan didn’t go home and went straight to the mine.
This trip was really a mess. When she got to the office, Big Sister Liu greeted her. This trip to the far city, really took a toll on the child.
Xu Nannan didn’t feel hard at all. It’s good to eat and drink and have fun in Shanghai. Just a little toss on the way back. However, it is precisely because of the inconvenience of the bus that she feels a little embarrassed, and it seems that she has suffered a lot.
Section Chief Xiao thinks it is better to let other men go next time. Who knew that Xu Nannan could immediately give him a cannonball news
“I bought everything back.”
Section Chief Xiao was shocked at this moment, “You really bought it?”
Xu Nannan nodded and brought the bag over.
Not only Section Chief Xiao, but other comrades also came to see it. You must know that this task has caused them all to be frustrated. Unexpectedly, this little girl turned out to be capable of everything.
“How did you get it? Which unit did it?” Sister Liu couldn’t wait to say.
Others stared at her curiously.
Xu Nannan had a countermeasure long ago. “These things are not easy to handle. The hardware shops in the shopping malls are all sold out. I found a few machinery factories and found the masters there preparing them. They are all quantitative, so they are not easy to give up. But it doesn’t cost much. It just took a few connections.”
When it comes to this, everyone is not confused, and naturally guessed what is going on. This is not easy to encounter, and the relationship is also strong, so it must be a good thing.
Don’t look at the society clamoring for the sake of the public all day long, and dedicate yourself to the society and the motherland, but who is not selfish? Even when they travel on business in ordinary times, those connections are all built on these. Otherwise, why do people want to make it convenient for you? So for outsiders, the people in the Purchasing Department are very capable, they can always buy things you can’t.
The people in the Purchasing Department didn’t ask anymore. Although they’re very curious how Xu Nannan found these connections, they can’t ask more about this. It can be regarded as Xu Nannan’s own connections. They can’t just ask her that no matter how much they want it or not.
All these things have mutual benefits.
Elder Xiao Ke was pleased, “Yes, not bad, I didn’t read the wrong person at the beginning. Comrade Yu Nannan is a positive and progressive young woman. Nannan is the youngest in our Purchasing Department, right? You older generations will be able to do so in the future. I need to mention her a little bit more. Let us have someone in the Purchasing Department.”
For the old section chief who is about to retire, there is nothing better than the Purchasing Department he brings, which makes him more gratified.
Sister Liu and Xiao Zhang naturally responded again and again.
Li Weiming also happily agreed, looking at Xu Nannan’s eyes. As if she saw her grandmother again, Xu Nannan felt goose bumps all over.
After handing in the task, Xu Nannan got in touch with the Mining Committee again, calling out Zhu Fang and the other two women, before giving them the things she brought back.
Seeing the beautifully colored Bragi, the three of them excitedly tried it on them, and they wanted to put them on immediately. It’s a pity that it’s not convenient now, at least they have to wait for it to be hot before they can wear it, and they will have to put on a work jacket outside.
The two women thanked her and went to the office to show off their new clothes. Zhu Fang twitched and said, “Well, did you see Li Weiming in your office?”
“Huh?” She was still wondering, what did Li Weiming’s eyes mean?
Zhu Fang blushed and smiled, “Ahem, aren’t you dealing with my partner? If you have something in the future, let him do it for you. If he doesn’t help, you will find me. I will take care of him.”
Look at this confidence, how domineering.
Xu Nannan was dumbfounded, “I’ve only been out for a few days now, you guys… Look who said she didn’t want it before.”
When mentioning the previous incident, Zhu Fang was a little embarrassed and stomped her feet. “It’s not that he is too pitiful. I met him in the cafeteria several times. Every time we meet, it seems that I owe him eighteenth generations of ancestors.” Speaking of complaints, the tone was unspeakable.
When Xu Nannan listened to her, she knew that she was happy, and she didn’t laugh at her with the previous things, “I see, he is too pitiful, so you sympathized with him. But Secretary Li is still a good person. He’s a good old man in our office. He has a good reputation. He don’t bully others.”
“Look at what you said, are you helping me or him?” Zhu Fang blushed, pretending to be annoyed to hit her.
Xu Nannan stepped back and walked away with a smile, carrying her things, “Well, I won’t provoke you anymore. You go back to work, I’ll go to the cafeteria to deliver things.”
“Are you still here later at noon? Let’s eat together again.” Zhu Fang asked.
“No, I’ll go back to rest. Besides, I won’t work for today. I don’t want to be your third wheel.”
Zhu Fang frowned and wondered, “What does a third wheel mean? ” She really couldn’t understand the connection between this third wheel and eating together.
Xu Nannan said nothing,”…”
The generation gap, this is the generation gap!
Xu Nannan went to the cafeteria for business affairs with emotion, but this time she ran into Jiang Lili. She gritted her teeth on one side, looking at people like an enemy. It was a look of hostility.
The people in the canteen also thought they hadn’t seen them, they were just chatting around Xu Nannan.
This time, Sister Liao didn’t pull Xu Nannan to talk about gossip, she just winked, and everyone tacitly knew.
After handling the matter, Xu Nannan returned home.
On this business trip, she also brought gifts to the two elders, one pair of reading glasses for each person.
Although Grandpa Yu is in good health, he is getting older and his eyes are a bit blurred. But he is a little stronger than Grandma Yu. Not to mention Grandma Yu, when she was doing embroidery before, she was talking about getting older and making mistakes when she got her needles.
This time Xu Nannan brought reading glasses back, and the two elders put their glasses on one at a time, and alas, it’s clear!
Grandpa Yu smiled with his hands behind his back, and instead of chattering with his granddaughter, he ran out to show off.
But Grandma Yu feels distressed and feels that the money is not worth it, “The female students I see buy some hairpins, makes some new clothes or something, and I think you should also learn a little. Look at what a girl you are, you have to start paying attention to finding suitable partner.”
Xu Nannan felt a little dizzy when she heard the words of partner. She quickly took out the bone strengthening milk from the bag, “Grandma, you can drink it in hot water when you are fine. It is good for your body. When you are older, you are prone to osteoporosis. Be careful.”
This sounds like a good thing, and Grandma Yu feels even more distressed, “We’re all family, why are you buying this? If you have money, you can save some money. We are too old for you to spend this much money to.”
Talking about this, her eyes went a little red. She is also a filial granddaughter.
“Grandma, you have to pay more attention when you are getting older. I also hope you can live a hundred years later. I want you to watch Xiaoman grow up, you will judge Xiaoman’s future husband’s house in the future.”
“I would be so old.” Grandma Yu smiled.
“Oh, Nannan is back, I just heard Old Yu talk about it, so come and have a look.”
Both grandparents and grandchildren were saying that they were happy. Li Jinhua came in from outside, still holding his three-year-old grandson in her arms. She is now retired and specializes in bringing grandchildren at home.
Xu Nannan frowned secretly when she saw her coming. The house where Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu lived was allocated a few days ago was given to the workshop director’s family. The family has a large population, and several young people in the family are going to get married. And the level has reached that level, and no one can gossip about it.
Because of this, everyone seemed to give up. After all, the two elders of the Yu family didn’t let the house come out. They had also fought for it, but they didn’t get it in their hands in the end.
This thing can be considered as hers.
So when Li Jinhua came to the door, Xu Nannan still felt a little puzzled. This person doesn’t look like a good person, and suddenly comes to the door. What can be a good thing?
Although she didn’t like it, Grandma Yu couldn’t push people out, so she managed to let Xu Nannan go to rest.
Xu Nannan was carrying something to enter the house, when Li Jinhua walked over and looked at the things in her hand, “This time Nannan went on a business trip and bought a lot of things when she came back. I just saw Lao Yu’s glasses, did you buy it? How cheap.” As she spoke, she was ready to reach for it.
Xu Nannan staggered subconsciously, regardless of Li Jinhua’s somewhat discolored face, she smiled, “It’s nothing, I won’t bother auntie now.”
She turned around and entered the house directly.
Seeing Xu Nannan entering the house, Li Jinhua’s expression changed.
Sitting next to her grandmother with her grandson in her arms, “The child is not good like this, and the temper is too bad to get along with. It will be hard to manage when she goes to her husband’s house in the future. No one likes such a daughter-in-law.”
Grandma Yu doesn’t like to listen to these words, “She’s still young, our family is not in a hurry.”
“How can you not be in a hurry, you are all at this age, and she will be a big girl if you drag it on. Besides, when you are older than this age, you always find a son-in-law to help you. Don’t look far away, just find someone close so that you can look after each other.”
Li Jinhua said, looked at Grandma Yu’s face, saw that the old lady didn’t respond, and continued, “If you want me to say, I don’t find the conditions too good, there are many rules like this. It’s just right for people like us… “
Grandma Yu is not stupid no matter how stupid she might think she is, she can hear her objectives, and her anger is causing smoke. what does this mean, let her granddaughter be their stepmother at their house?
Who didn’t know that the previous Dong’s wife was ill and she was not treated? This was known to everyone. And this woman was still staring at her granddaughter to marry her son, Dong!
She really kills with a thousand swords.
The old lady couldn’t help but curse in her heart. With a sullen face, she said, “Our family Nannan can find anyone she wants. Lao Yu and I are not dragged down, so we can’t think of ourselves too low. I am a registered worker in the city, a secondary school student, a formal worker, and my husband is also handsome. So, we have to choose a young talent with the same qualifications.”
As soon as Li Jinhua heard this, she knew that she was clearly not in favor of her own son. She said with an ugly face, “Don’t say be so nice to her. She’s a nobody, just a wild girl from the countryside who was randomly recognized by an ancestor, and thought she really became a phoenix. Humph!” She snorted heavily and hugged her grandson. The eldest grandson spit on the ground, and then they walked out the door angrily.
Grandma Yu’s heart hurts.
She hadn’t got mad with anyone in her half of her life. At this age, she could still suffer this kind of crime.
When Xu Nannan heard the movement and went out to look at it, she saw Grandma Yu trembling all over, so she anxiously ran over, “Grandma, what’s the matter with you, what happened?”
While talking, she touched Yu grandma’s back to give her comfort.
Grandma Yu took a few breaths before she came over, “It’s okay, it’s just that Li Jinhua is a mad woman.” She didn’t bother to talk to her granddaughter about that.
Seeing that she was okay, Xu Nannan hurried back to the room to pour hot water and fed her a few sips. “Grandma, don’t be angry, I saw her when I turned back, you can vent your anger to me.” Knowing that Li Jinhua was so arrogant, she should just stop her from entering the house. She was too nice to think of this person, and suddenly she had a convulsion.
Xu Nannan asked Grandma Yu, but Grandma Yu was not happy to talk about it. She didn’t worry about going to bed by herself, so she simply sat in the yard with Grandma Yu and chatted about the prosperity of Shanghai.
Grandma Yu was yearning, “When I was young, I wanted to go there and take a look. When I had time now, I couldn’t stand the dizziness when traveling.”
Xu Nannan also knew that there was no way. After a few days of train, the old lady wouldn’t be able to stand the dizziness. This will have to wait until there is a plane in the future… The two old men can’t wait at this age.
“Grandma, next time I will bring a few photos back, the same is true when I look at the photos. You can know the world without going out.”
“What are you doing with that money? I can’t just listen to you.” Grandma Yu smiled and lowered her head to embroider.
Xu Nannan remembered it in her heart.
When she was about to eat at noon, Xiaoman also came back, followed by Grandpa Yu who went out to show off. The old man’s face was flushed, and he was obviously complimented by others.
“It is said that my granddaughter is better than their grandchildren. They are all that old, and they haven’t bought anything for them. Look at my glasses, not everyone is willing to buy them.”
Grandma Yu scolded, “In the future, don’t go out to attract people. Li Jinhua was recruited by you today.”
Grandpa Yu helped his glasses, “What is she doing here, we don’t have a house for her anymore. If she has the ability to find trouble in the factory, then she should just do it.”
“Hmph, anyway, it made me feel uneasy and she was not too kind.” In front of the child, she didn’t want to talk about Li Jinhua’s dirty thoughts.
When Xu Nannan saw her grandmother having a small temper, she winked at Xiaoman, and Xiaoman immediately showed her grandmother the flower crown on her head, “Grandma, look at my flower.”
The first flower has two red bows, which look very delicate.
“It looks good, Nannan has a good eye.”
With this interruption, Grandma Yu didn’t care about anything else, and asked the old man to get a comb to re-comb her granddaughter’s hair and tie her hair.
Grandpa Yu got up to get the comb, and muttered, “This old lady, they also come out one by one.”
Xu Nannan smiled secretly, with some curiosity in her heart. What did Li Jinhua and the old lady say to make the old lady who has always been good-tempered bear hatred until now?
In the staff building of the textile factory, Li Jinhua was cooking, watching the eldest daughter not helping, she was unhappy and said, “You eat my food and drink my water every day, and I don’t see you buy me something, I’m the one who raised you and you’re not as good as the granddaughter of a half-passer!”
The eldest daughter Dong Lan said, “If you give me a small room, I will treat you as an ancestor.” She was fed up with squeezing in this house all day. It’s a shame that her passed away sister-in-law didn’t stay in this room before, otherwise she wouldn’t be willing to come back. “This is a broken single room. Even if I’m already so old, I still have to squeeze a room with you and my brother. To be filial, I have to feel that way.”
Li Jinhua snorted, “Don’t underestimate people, you think I can’t give you a small room? This small single room is still possible.”
Hearing what she said, Dong Lan’s eyes lit up immediately. She put down the child, and leaned forward, “Mom, what are you talking about? Where is the house?”
“Just the small single room where we live.”
Dong Lan’s face suddenly collapsed, “Pull it down, this is the lifeblood of you and my brother, can you give it to me?”
“Why not? If your brother married the wild girl whom Yu Jia recognizes, your brother and I will move in with our children. While you live here, and you can live here in marriage in the future.”
Dong Lan immediately got excited, “Mom, can it work? I heard that the girl’s job is pretty good, and she is also good-looking. Can she like my brother who was already married before?”
Anyway, she doesn’t like her brother, he’s just a wooden stake.
Li Jinhua pursed her mouth and smiled, “It’s fine for our family to see her. Just watch, they will get married sooner or later.”
When his son Dong Wu came back for dinner, Li Jinhua talked about it again. Dong Wuchang is tall and thin, with a national character face, and he is just more than twenty, but he already looks like thirty year old man. Hearing this, he didn’t say no, “Mom, If you think it’s good. I’ll listen to you.”
Li Jinhua loves these words, “You usually take the initiative. A teenage girl doesn’t understand everything. It’s not a matter of a few words. The more you contact her, the more chance we get. This is not for a relationship, but just for the sake of having their house.”
Xu Nannan fully rested at home for a day, and the next day she went to work in the Mine with a full mental state.
When she arrived at the office, Section Chief Xiao told her happily that because of the completion of the task this time and solving the difficulties in the mine, the mine gave her an outstanding report. This is also to be recorded on the file.
Xu Nannan felt that if she had only such qualifications, she would not be able to get promoted for the time being. The qualifications were optional, but everyone was so happy, so she couldn’t be disappointed. She was excited to show her loyalty to the organization.
At noon, Xu Nannan went to the cafeteria to have a meal. She passed the bulletin board and looked at her letter of praise. The content was very positive and she was about to become the successor to the great cause of Nanjiang City Iron Mine.
Looking at it again, there was a notice of punishment next to it.
Comrade Jiang Lili in the cafeteria beat up Comrade Wu Qing, an apprentice mechanic, in a public place. The circumstances are serious and remain for review.
At the end, showed the seals of the office of Nanjiang City Iron Mine Committee and the Labor Union.
