In the past, dumplings were eaten at the beginning of winter, also known as "An Er!"
Chen Jingnian didn't plan to make dumplings. He felt that eating steamed buns every day was already a luxury.
Thinking that during this period of time, I don’t have to worry about dealing with cabbage and radishes, I have ready-made meals to eat every day.
Chen Jinnian walked into the factory lazily with a smile on his face.
As soon as he entered the office building, he saw Director Sun waving to him.
"Director, please find me."
Chen Jinnian ran two steps, stood up straight, and asked in a low voice.
At this time, a middle-aged woman was sitting in the publicity office.
With slender shoulders and back, she has a very standard appearance of a middle-aged aunt, and judging from her expression, she has already begun to approach the aunt.
"Jingnian, this is Director Ni from our factory union who is in charge of the Women's Federation."
Director Sun held Chen Jingnian's shoulders and introduced.
"Hello, Director Ni, I am Chen Jingnian."
"Hello, Jingnian, you're welcome. Your parents and I are both old comrades. Just call me Aunt Ni."
Director Ni stood up when Director Sun introduced him and waited for Chen Jingnian to finish speaking before he said with a smile.
"Aunt Ni."
"That's right, Jingnian, what's going on is that you and I will leave early in the afternoon and take me to your hospital to see Jia Dongxu's family.
When Jia Dongxu's accident happened, I went out. I heard about it just after I came back. As the director of our factory union in charge of the women's federation, I must go and see the families of our workers who died on the job and hear if they have any difficulties.
.”
Director Ni wears glasses, and the wrinkles on his face accumulate when he speaks, making him look even more aged.
"Okay, Director Ni, I can take you there at any time."
Chen Jingnian always wanted to stay away from such aunt-type characters, so he said seriously.
"Nacheng, Jingnian, please remember to call me Aunt Ni from now on. I will go find you in the afternoon."
Director Ni took two steps forward, patted Chen Jingnian's shoulder affectionately, turned to Director Sun and said, "Old Sun, I still have some material to write, so I have to leave first."
"Director Ni, you are busy, you are busy."
Director Sun took Chen Jingnian and sent Director Ni away.
"In the afternoon, when you take Director Ni to your hospital, pay attention to the time and come back before off-duty time."
Director Sun waited for Director Ni to turn up the stairs, closed the door and gave instructions to Chen Jingnian.
"Thank you, Director, I know!"
Chen Jinnian looked at Director Sun and stretched his eyes, then smiled knowingly.
Returning to the screening team, Chen Jinnian told the master about the factory office's request to count Qiucai yesterday afternoon.
Liu Guanggeng opened his mouth and realized that none of the autumn vegetables weighed less than a thousand kilograms, and the cabbage even reached an exaggerated six thousand kilograms!
Chen Jingnian looked at the list he made and always felt that something was missing, and he felt a sense of guilt for the farmer brothers inexplicably.
Fill in the quantity of autumn vegetables that the master wants to buy, and hand the list to the publicity office.
Under the supervision of Liu Guanggeng, Chen Jingnian began to maintain the Yangtze River 200 projector.
This is a projector that has been used for almost ten years. Many parts of the fuselage have been worn to reveal the true metal color, and many screws have also slipped, so you must be very careful during maintenance.
Chen Jingnian disassembled the projector bit by bit, cleaning the dust inside and checking the wear and tear of each part.
Liu Guanggeng pointed out from time to time how to judge which parts should be replaced and which parts can still be used by observing the aging degree of these parts.
It took the two of them a whole day to finally restore the old projector to its original state.
When it was almost time to get off work, Director Ni came late, knocked on the door, and said with a smile: "Master Liu, I borrowed your apprentice!"
"It's okay if I don't borrow it, Director Ni, but there's one thing: my apprentice's hand is injured and he can't do heavy work!"
Liu Guanggeng laughed and nodded seemingly casually.
"Look what you said, just lead the way!"
Director Ni smiled slightly and did not enter the room, but waited in the corridor.
Liu Guanggeng, like Director Sun, whispered to Chen Jingnian.
Chen Jingnian and Director Ni then came out and rode to the courtyard.
Along the way, Director Ni first asked about Jia Dongxu's family situation, and then, as an old comrade, he imparted a lot of work experience and old chicken soup to Chen Jingnian.
Chen Jingnian had to stop thinking and slow down his pace to wait for Director Ni, who called himself Brick, to give a long speech.
When they arrived at the courtyard, they locked the car in front of the house and Chen Jinnian took Director Ni to the backyard.
He stepped forward and knocked on Qin Huairu's door: "Aunt Zhang, is Aunt Zhang at home?"
"Axe, is something wrong?"
Jia Zhang opened the door and came out. Her short figure stood in the sunken house, looking even more inconspicuous.
"Aunt Zhang, this is Director Ni from our factory union. He just came back from a business trip and came to see you."
Chen Jingnian turned sideways to let Director Ni over and introduced Mr. Jia Zhang.
"Director Ni?"
"Sister-in-law, I am Ni Xiuping, from the labor union of our steel rolling mill."
Director Ni stepped forward and held Mrs. Jia Zhang's hand. When Mrs. Jia Zhang was a little panicked and uncomfortable, she introduced herself.
"Ni, Director Ni, please, please come in."
Jia Zhang took out her hand, glanced at Chen Jinnian, and opened the door completely.
"Hey, Dongxu, it's a pity that he is so young."
Director Ni walked into the room, was stunned for a moment, looked at the portrait of Jia Dongxu hanging on the wall opposite the door, and sighed.
"Sister Qin."
Chen Jinnian followed him into the house and saw Qin Huairu with a flushed face and a haggard expression.
"Axe, you're here."
Qin Huairu held her hand on the door frame of the back room and responded feebly.
"Sister Qin, this is Director Ni from our factory union. He is here to visit you and Aunt Zhang today."
Chen Jinnian turned around and introduced him again.
After Director Ni started talking to Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu, Chen Jinnian started talking to Xiaodang who was sitting on the kang.
When I was little, I didn't go to school. After these few days of hard work, my face was chapped and there were many small cuts, and my lips were also old.
I asked three questions and got one reply, but it was as languid as that carrot boat.
Director Ni and Mrs. Jia Zhang chatted for a long time before they got to the point. She took out a sewing machine roll from her pocket, handed it to Mrs. Jia Zhang, and said: "Sister-in-law, this is the collective decision of the factory leaders.
I applied to the superior department specifically for your family. If you have any difficulties in life in the future, you can come to me at any time, and I will try my best to consult with the factory leaders and give you a satisfactory answer."
"I'm so grateful to you. This saved our family's lives!"
Mrs. Jia Zhang took the small piece of paper, bowed her head with gratitude, and then asked Xiao Dang to come over and kowtow to Director Ni.
Director Ni waved his hands repeatedly, said a few words in a hurry and left.
Mrs. Jia Zhang led Xiaodang to send Director Ni to the entrance of the hospital, and then went back under Director Ni's persuasion.
"Jingnian, you don't have to see me off. The factory has got off work. You should go back and cook."
Director Ni rolled up his sleeves, looked at the watch on his wrist, and said with a smile.
"I'll take you to the entrance of the alley. There are a lot of cars at the moment."
When Chen Jingnian came out of the yard, he saw a large group of people coming off work and knew that it was already time to get off work.
"No, I'll be home right after I pass the city gate tower. There are not many people going east here."
"Then walk slowly. There is a pit on the right side of the alley ahead. Please be careful."
Chen Jingnian walked with Director Ni for a while, watching Director Ni get on the car and drive away against the flow of traffic. This chapter has been completed!
