And just by looking at the figure of the driver, one could tell that he was a soldier, probably a security guard or something like that.
When He Yuzhu was cooking in the kitchen, Zhang Meng stood at the door of the kitchen and watched without saying a word. He really felt like a light on his back.
After arriving at the intersection, He Yuzhu told the cook not to make blind inquiries before carrying his lunch box and walking towards the courtyard.
After Li Chu and the others finished eating, they discussed tomorrow's affairs.
In fact, there is nothing to discuss. Zhang Meng can just send Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang over tomorrow morning, and then take Wang Jun to his mother-in-law's house to pick them up.
We'll sit down and have dinner together tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow Wang Jun and his wife will go get the certificate with the letter of introduction.
After sitting for a while, Uncle Wang and the others went back. Li Qin saw that her daughter was having fun with the two children who were not very good at talking, so she didn't leave in a hurry.
Li Chu and his brother-in-law were sitting on the stone bench chatting.
The weather has cooled down, so Ding Qiunan specially sewed cotton cushions on the stone benches in the courtyard so that you won't feel cold when sitting on them.
Wang Ziwen took out the issued coal ticket from his pocket and handed it to Li Chu.
His small boiler is good at everything, but it consumes too much coal. Most people can't buy so much coal, and even if they can buy it casually, they can't afford the money.
"My work may need to be adjusted." Wang Ziwen said while taking a puff of cigarette.
"Where will you be transferred?" Li Chu was a little curious. His brother-in-law had only been in charge for a few years.
"Go to the city bureau and become the deputy director."
"Hey, brother-in-law, you have been promoted!"
"Alas" Wang Ziwen sighed and continued: "It's hard to say whether Gao Sheng is the director. It is said that the director of the municipal bureau will retire in a few years, but there are so many deputy directors in the municipal bureau. How can it be my turn."
Li Chu thought it right. His brother-in-law's old leader in the city has resigned. Who can help him then?
"What should I do, brother-in-law, don't you want to go?"
Wang Ziwen nodded: "I would rather have a chicken head than a phoenix tail. I really don't want to go. To put it bluntly, if I go to the city bureau, I may not even be able to use a car in the future."
Li Chu thought for a moment and asked, "Brother-in-law, have you told Uncle Wang about this?"
Wang Ziwen looked at Li Chu intently and said nothing.
He was looked at by his brother-in-law's eyes a little strangely. Just when he was about to ask something, he realized what he was doing and scratched his head in embarrassment.
He finally realized why his brother-in-law told him this.
Don't you just want to tell Uncle Wang through his mouth?
Li Chu smiled helplessly: "Brother-in-law, we are all a family. If you have any questions, just say no directly to me. Isn't it interesting for you to beat around the bush with me?"
"What's wrong? What are you brother-in-law and brother-in-law talking about? What are you beating around the bush?"
Li Qin and Ding Qiunan walked out of the room, followed by Jiayuan.
Seeing that the two children were already asleep, Li Qin was about to go back. As soon as she came out, she heard what her brother said.
Li Chu turned to look at his sister and said, "Sister, you must know that my brother-in-law told me this. Was it your idea to talk to me like this?"
Before Li Qin could speak, Wang Ziwen said first: "It has nothing to do with your sister. I did something wrong this time. I apologize to you, Xiao Chu."
Ding Qiunan looked at her brother-in-law and then her husband curiously. She didn't know what happened and why she had to apologize. However, she didn't ask anything. Instead, she took Jiayuan's hand and walked to the swing to play.
.
Li Qin also sat on a stone bench, smiled and explained to her brother: "It's not that we want to tell you this, but your brother-in-law and I don't know how to say it."
"Sister, what matters between you and your brother-in-law is my business. It's hard to say what you're going to do. If you say anything, it's over. Why are you all so accustomed to being leaders? Do you have to let people guess when you talk to your own family?
"
He waved his hand and said, "Okay, even if this matter is in the past, we won't mention it anymore. Brother-in-law, I don't know anything about politics. If you go to the Municipal Bureau, won't your level be improved? Why don't you want to go?"
Li Qin took the words and said: "If your brother-in-law goes to the Municipal Bureau, it is true that his level will be improved, but do you know how many deputy directors there are in the Municipal Bureau?"
Without waiting for Li Chu to answer, she continued: "Seven, your brother-in-law must have been ranked last when he came over, which is equivalent to being promoted openly and secretly, without any rights."
After listening to his sister's words, Li Chu thought about it for a while and suddenly realized that this was just like their hospital had a vice president in charge of the labor union. The labor union had a director. If anything happened, he would often bypass him and report directly to the president.
, this vice-dean has nothing to do day by day, just hanging out with a cup of tea and a newspaper.
The vice-dean is old and can dawdle, but my brother-in-law is only in his early forties. If he just dawdles like this, it will be the end of his life, and he will definitely not be willing to accept it.
"Okay, I'll tell Uncle Wang later. This matter hasn't been settled yet, right brother-in-law?"
"No, there are just rumors now, but if I don't do anything, then the rumors will definitely come true."
"It's okay if it's not decided yet. I think if I have time tomorrow, I will talk to Uncle Wang tomorrow. Brother-in-law, do you not want to move, or do you have other ideas?"
Li Chu planned to ask everything that needed to be asked clearly. Since he wanted to tell Uncle Wang, he should make it clear once and for all. Don't ask for anything today and tomorrow.
Wang Ziwen smiled sheepishly: "Of course it would be best if the level could be improved, but if it is because of the level improvement, if you go to a certain unit and become a five-, six-, seven-, or eight-year-old, then forget it."
After hearing what his brother-in-law said, Li Chu finally understood and nodded: "Okay, I understand, brother-in-law."
The reason why Li Qin and Wang Ziwen didn't tell Uncle Wang themselves was because Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang really loved Li Chu and treated him as their own son.
If Wang Ziwen had told Uncle Wang himself, the effect would definitely not be as good as what Li Chu said.
Take the example of hosting Wang Jun's father-in-law's family tomorrow. If Wang Ziwen says that he will pay for the meal, do you think Uncle Wang can agree?
Wang Jun himself couldn't agree.
But when it comes to Li Chu, whether it's Wang Jun or Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang, they all think it's normal and they won't even be polite to him.
After sending his sister and the others away, Li Chu sat on the sofa, thinking about how to talk to Uncle Wang.
Ding Qiunan saw that he was thinking about something and didn't bother him. He prepared milk powder for the two children. There were many people at home during the day, and the two children were tired from playing so much that they didn't drink milk before going to bed.
Li Chu sat there and thought for a while, and suddenly felt something was wrong. What was there to think about?
Just tell Uncle Wang directly. After thinking about it, what's the difference between hiding it and tucking it in like my brother-in-law did just now?
Now that I figured it out, I suddenly understood. Just as Ding Qiunan came out after feeding the child and was about to rinse the bottle, Li Chu stood up and took the bottle.
Ding Qiunan hugged her husband from behind: "Have you figured things out?"
"I figured it out." While washing the bottle, he told his wife what had just happened.
