Zhao Ming took Aunt Ju and Baimao's family to the small courtyard where Zheng Tonghe's family lived.
Zheng Tonghe's home is quite lively, and from time to time, cadres and employees from the factory come to visit with their things to pay New Year's greetings.
When Aunt Ju and the others arrived, they bumped into Du Changgeng's uncle, Du Dehai.
It's just that Bai Su hasn't arrived yet, and the Baimao family who have met Du Changgeng only think that Du Dehai looks familiar and doesn't recognize him.
Zheng Tonghe's daughter-in-law Yuan Huahua is a round-faced and slightly fat woman. She is the female director of a food factory and is a good hand at home and abroad.
Reciprocity!
When people come to pay New Year greetings and bring something with them, she will give them some gifts in return when they leave.
When the distinguished guests arrived, they asked Zheng Tonghe to greet Aunt Ju and the others. Yuan Huahua sent Du Dehai to the door: "Director Du, I will invite you to have a drink with Lao Zheng another day. We have distinguished guests at home today, so I won't keep you here."
"Okay, I'll come with that guy He Yan next time."
Du Dehai picked up the return gift from Yuan Huahua, and as soon as he weighed it, he knew it was heavy.
He waved goodbye and said, "My father Geng's son has found a marriage in the Peace Brigade. When the date is fixed, I'll invite you and Director Zheng to have a wedding drink."
Aren’t the people entertaining in the room from the Peace Brigade?
Yuan Huahua also wanted to ask Du Dehai what was going on, but thought it was more important to treat the guests first, so she sent Du Dehai directly to the entrance of the hospital.
"As soon as we, Lao Zheng, came to the food factory, you were the backbone to support the transportation team for him. Based on the friendship between our two families, if your nephew gets a wife, we will definitely come to join in the fun."
Yuan Huahua sent Du Dehai to the door and watched him go away before he wanted to go into the house.
At this time, a couple rushed out from the diagonal, carrying New Year gifts in their hands: "Director Yuan, we are here to wish you and Director Zheng New Year's greetings."
There were quite a lot of employees in the food factory. Yuan Huahua didn't recognize anyone at first glance.
But when she saw the man following the woman, she had an impression. Isn't this Yan Weicai, the workshop director?
"Director Yan, Comrade Lu, happy New Year!"
Yuan Huahua only remembered that Yan Weicai's wife's surname was Lu, but she forgot the specific name.
There are guests at home now, and it is really not convenient to receive people.
Yuan Huahua had no choice but to decline politely: "I'm sorry, there are guests at home. I can't receive you today. I'll ask Lao Zheng to invite you to have a drink with me another day."
Yan Weicai's expression changed!
Because he felt that Yuan Huahua was perfunctory when she said that Director Zheng would ask him to drink.
In the past, when he came to the door with his things, no matter what happened, Yuan Huahua would not give him face and let him and Lu Qiu Shuang leave directly.
It seems that he really offended his second sister-in-law. Secretary Qin told Zheng Tonghe something.
Fortunately, he and Lu Qiu Shuang had discussed it before going out.
The reason why Secretary Qin dislikes him is because he offended his second sister-in-law Bai Su.
If he and his second sister-in-law Bai Su reconciled, wouldn't Secretary Qin give him some shoes to wear in front of Factory Director Zheng?
Yan Weicai came up with an idea because of his cleverness. He would first use her second sister-in-law's name to stabilize Factory Director Zheng, and then apologize to Bai Su and slowly mend the relationship.
In this way, his position as workshop director can be guaranteed.
"Director Yuan, this is the bacon smoked by my second sister-in-law. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I went to the Peace Brigade to pay New Year greetings. She asked me to bring a piece of bacon to Factory Director Zheng."
Yan Weicai handed over the bacon, and Yuan Huahua was confused.
Aren’t the distinguished guests received in the room from the Peace Brigade?
Bai Su had helped her old Zheng a lot, and he was Secretary Qin's employee, so Yuan Huahua naturally knew about it.
But even though they hadn't arrived yet, her brother and sister-in-law had already brought two pieces of bacon, a few sausages, and seafood from the island troops, and the rice krispie treats they made themselves came to the door.
Why would you ask someone to bring a piece of bacon as a gift?
Looking at the shabby piece of bacon, Yuan Huahua asked: "Who is your second sister-in-law?"
"My second sister-in-law is Bai Su, the one who runs the medicine shop in the Peace Brigade. She is very familiar with Secretary Qin."
Lu Qiu Shuang answered and explained: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there was a little misunderstanding when we came to pay New Year's greetings, and Secretary Qin bumped into me. How can a family have an overnight feud? My second sister-in-law has always had a good relationship with me. Isn't this right?
Just let me help carry the bacon to Factory Manager Zheng."
"He Yan's wife is pregnant, so he can't come to Factory Director Zheng to pay New Year's greetings."
Yuan Huahua didn't answer, she was suspicious.
But in Yan Weicai's opinion, it was she who was shocked by the relationship between Bai Su and Qin Yanyue.
Yan Weicai even felt superior to Yuan Huahua.
"Director Yuan, is Director Zheng here? Why don't you invite us in for a cup of tea?"
Lu Qiu Shuang and Yan Weicai were acting enthusiastically, but they didn't know that Qin Yanyue and Bai Su had already arrived at the entrance of Zheng Tonghe's courtyard.
After leaving Du Dehai, Lu Qiu Shuang and his wife chatted with Yuan Huahua, and Bai Su stood beside Qin Yanyue who was pushing his bicycle and heard them all.
At this moment, I heard someone borrowing her name to approach Zheng Tonghe.
Bai Su couldn't help but laugh!
"Lu Qiu Shuang, Yan Weicai, when did I ask you to give gifts to Director Zheng?"
Bai Su, who was standing under the wall, walked out with Qin Yanyue, who was pushing a bicycle, and stood in front of them.
Then, she smiled at Yuan Huahua.
Qin Yanyue also spoke: "Director Yuan, in the future, cats and dogs will come to you in the name of Comrade Bai Su. Do you know what to do?"
Combining what Lu Qiu Shuang said and seeing Qin Yan stand up for those around him, Yuan Huahua probably understood the whole story.
That is, this couple had offended Secretary Qin's sweetheart, and then they were afraid that Secretary Qin would complain to his family, Lao Zheng, so Yan Weicai and Lu Qiu Shuang used the name of their sweetheart to come to Lao Zheng first.
Unfortunately, just at this time, Secretary Qin came to the door with someone.
Yuan Huahua looked at Yan Weicai and his wife with disdain: "Director Yan, should I send you away? Or should you go by yourself?"
"Second sister-in-law..."
Being pushed by Yan Weicai, Lu Qiu Shuang shouted at Bai Su in grievance.
Unfortunately, Bai Su started talking to Yuan Huahua and ignored her at all.
The couple stood in the cold wind carrying a piece of bacon, and heard people talking in the yard.
Yuan Huahua asked Qin Yanyue: "Secretary Qin, what's going on with the two people outside?"
"It's okay, these two short-sighted guys didn't pay attention to them at first. They came to see Lao Zheng in the name of Comrade Bai Su. Then you have to remind Lao Zheng to keep his eyes open when employing people.
"
Yan Weicai almost spit out a mouthful of blood!
It turned out that Secretary Qin didn't take them seriously at all, let alone say anything in front of Zheng Tonghe. It was them who bumped into him and used the name of the second sister-in-law to find Factory Director Zheng and was discovered.
Yan Weicai and Lu Qiu Shuang both saw Secretary Qin pushing the bicycle.
So it was he who drove his second sister-in-law Bai Su to Zheng Tonghe's house just now?
Then they even used the name of the second sister-in-law to find Director Zheng.
It's over, his position as workshop director is really unkept...
