Chapter 29 Sister 2 is at work

The next morning, Zhang Xingwang went to Beihai Park to buy goods after breakfast. His mother also took half a day off and happily took the anxious second sister to the street office to get a letter of introduction. The fourth sister went to school early, leaving the eldest sister at home to look after the youngest sister.

Zhang Xingwang arrived at Beihai Park, said hello to the old man, and then rented a boat to go fishing.

I just stopped the boat and waited for a while, and then Brother Tong's reward arrived, which was 0.1 cubic meters of space and 12 kilograms of corn. This time Brother Tong was much more generous. It was just right for making a nest.

It was almost noon when Zhang Xingwang rowed ashore.

Because the space reached 2.2 cubic meters and 10 kilograms of corn were used to make the nest, today's harvest was full, and the fish catch exceeded 130 kilograms. However, we did not encounter any big fish. The largest one was a black carp weighing eight or nine kilograms.

This time, my second sister didn't come with me, so I only put five grass carps and carps weighing two or three pounds in the backpack. Otherwise, I'm afraid that if I put so many every time, the old man's heart would not be able to bear it.

After saying goodbye to the old man, I headed to the hospital as it was almost time. I stopped by the supply and marketing cooperative and spent 2 cents to buy two snakeskin bags. I found a secluded place and put 2 kilograms of fish and a leg of lamb into each bag.

When it was time to get off work at noon, I took Director Li outside the hospital and handed the prepared bag to Director Li.

Director Li did not answer, but asked:

"How's your relationship with the logistics director going?"

"It was already done last night. They asked me to go to Director Wang today to handle the formalities. Brother Li, you take it. This is a little gift for you and Sister Jin. Please handle it as you see fit."

"Okay, you know I'm a straight-talker, I won't reach out if you say anything else.

But you also know that my brother has a family, and I can’t just watch the children cry out of hunger these days.”

Director Li didn't say anything else, but just sighed deeply.

But the meaning has been expressed very clearly, and it seems to be true. Zhang Xingwang is treated as a brother. But in this special period, it is estimated that few people can resist the temptation of meat.

After all, every family has elderly and children. Adults can bear with it, but can you just watch the pale and skinny old people and skinny children starve to death?

"But brother, you have to be careful. You know I'm from Eastern Province. When I was a child, I heard that many people were killed by blind bears."

"It's okay, I mainly cooperate with people and help them deal with it."

"That's good. When you have time, come home and ask your sister-in-law to cook some food for us so we can have a drink together."

After saying goodbye to Director Li, Zhang Xingwang turned around and went home. He went into a state-owned restaurant on the way and checked in.

There was just a problem with the way it was opened. I asked at the counter, and they said there was no braised pork, no rice, no white flour buns, and the most outrageous thing was that there was not even any meat buns. They said the meat buns were limited, so if I wanted to eat them I had to hurry up tomorrow.

Moreover, the attitude of the salesperson was hard to describe. She looked indifferent, as if the restaurant was owned by her family. She didn't want to say a word.

After looking around, I spent 3 cents on a pound of food coupons and bought ten 1g steamed buns amid the salesperson's mumbling, and went home dejected.

If it weren't for the slogan on the wall that customers must not be beaten without reason and the two burly chefs, I really wanted to have a fight with her.

After returning home, he put down the steamed buns, handed the remaining three pounds of corn to his eldest sister, and then the family started eating.

Zhang Xingwang took a bite and felt that today's food tasted much better than before. He then asked:

"Who cooked the cabbage today?"

Mother Wang Xiulan put down her chopsticks and replied:

"I fried it, why is it so unpalatable? Mom hasn't cooked for a long time either."

"No, today's food is really delicious, much better than what Fourth Sister cooks."

"It's also mom's fault. She was busy every day and had no time to teach your fourth sister how to cook. She had to figure it out on her own."

"I brought back steamed buns. We'll have steamed buns as our main meal tonight. Have you got the letter of introduction for my second sister?"

"It has been opened. Director Wang asked for a long time, and I told Director Wang that it was you who found the job. Director Wang also said that when he is free, he asked you to go and look for it, and he wants to talk to you."

"Okay, I get it"

Zhang Xingwang thought to himself that it seemed that Director Wang had guessed it as soon as his mother Wang Xiulan said it, and it was almost certain that the job was obtained in exchange for fishing.

I was asked to come over, probably to talk about the fish. But this is a good thing, it will not be a loss to have a good relationship with the street. At least in the future, if I am wronged in the yard, I will have a place to complain.

After taking a nap, Zhang Xingwang and his second sister set off for the department store. On the way, his second sister couldn't hide her joy, but she was also very nervous. She kept asking what to pay attention to at work and how to get along with colleagues.

Seeing the second sister's helpless look, Zhang Xingwang comforted her:

"I will introduce you to the sales team leader, Sister Jin, and you can ask Sister Jin if you have any questions in the future."

The second sister slowly calmed down after hearing this. The siblings took the letter of introduction and went to the office area of ​​the department store. They found Director Wang's office and knocked on the door.

The door opened just after he knocked. Zhang Xinwang saw that it was Sister Jin who opened the door.

After entering the room with my second sister, Director Wang smiled at Zhang Xingwang and said:

"Young man, you are really capable. My nephew-in-law came to my house late at night to find me because of your second sister's matter. Xiao Jin said he came to me to report on his work, but he was actually waiting for you here."

"Director, you're joking. But now that you say that, I have to remember how good Director Li and Sister Jin have been to me."

Director Wang exchanged a few pleasantries with Zhang Xingwang, and then Sister Jing said:

"Xiao Jin, you've waited for this person, so why don't you just take Xiao Zhang with you to the personnel department to handle the formalities. Chief Song, I've already communicated with them."

"Okay, Director. Then Xiao Zhang and I will go there first."

After Sister Jin finished speaking, she winked at Zhang Xingwang and then took her anxious second sister out.

Seeing this, Zhang Xingwang said goodbye to Director Wang.

When he went out, he saw Sister Jin and Second Sister waving at him not far away, so he walked over.

Sister Jin said to him with a smile:

"According to my brother-in-law, I will call you my little brother from now on. But you are too polite. I was just delivering a message. My brother-in-law brought so many things that day that I felt embarrassed."

"It's my duty, Sister Jin. You call me your little brother, so it's normal for a little brother to bring something for his sister. Besides, my second sister works here, so I need you to take care of her."

"Of course, sister, tell me if you have any problems in the future. If someone causes trouble for you, I will go and deal with him."

After hearing this, Sister Jin patted her chest and said to her second sister. Then she turned around and pretended to be impatient and said to Zhang Xinwang:

"Okay, I'll take my sister to handle the formalities. You have nothing to do here, so just go about your business. When I get off work, I will return your second sister to you intact."

Zhang Xingwang, feeling at a loss for words, said goodbye to the two and went home.
