Capital, rolling mill.

Xu Jingli, who had been transferred to the factory office, had just returned from the workshop, out of breath, with tiny beads of sweat on the tip of her nose.

"Xiao Xu, the drink issued by the factory is in your file, take it out and drink it, don't suffer from heat stroke." Sister Cai from the same office said.

"Well, thank you." Xu Jingli nodded, first wiped her face with a towel, and then took out a bottle of orange soda from the filing cabinet, took out the bottle opener and opened it, 'ton ton ton' and downed most of the bottle in one go. Only then did I feel the hotness on my body gradually disappear.

"At this time of year, the workshop is as hot as a steamer, and it's really not easy to work in it," Xu Jingli said with emotion.

"That's right. When I didn't turn on the ceiling fan in the workshop two years ago, I was so hot that I passed out..."

Sister Cai is older than Xu Jingli, and has a longer working experience than her. She knows a lot of things, and after talking a few words, she asked curiously: "Xiao Xu, it seems that your partner hasn't come to pick you up for a while... Awkward?"

Women are always free from a heart of gossip. This is a woman's second heart. Whether Xu Jingli is working in the workshop or transferred to the factory office, someone will introduce her to someone. In the end, Liu Hao is sacrificed. , but Liu Hao's "little" object can be regarded as a label.

"He went out to visit relatives." Xu Jingli didn't say that he went to Xiangjiang, so as not to make a fuss.

"That's a long time to go."

Sister Cai actually knew that Liu Hao had gone to Xiangjiang. After all, Liu Hao was not considered a celebrity in the rolling mill, but Lou Xiaoe was definitely a celebrity. Naturally, many people paid attention to her whereabouts, and she was also the first employee who voluntarily resigned after the factory was established: "Shouldn't he be separated from you?"

"With a girlfriend as beautiful as me, is he willing to give birth?" Xu Jingli said this deliberately. She knew that Sister Cai had always been thinking about being a matchmaker for her nephew who worked in the first workshop, and she always used the age difference to talk about things.

"That's true." Sister Cai didn't deny this point. If Xu Jingli didn't have the face of a vixen, she wouldn't be able to make her nephew fall in love.

winter!winter!winter!

Someone knocked on the door outside, and the two of them immediately stopped talking and joking. Xu Jingli's face became much more serious, and she raised her voice, "Come in!"

A young man with a slicked back came in, his eyes quickly swept away, and then fixed on Xu Jingli's face, as if he was very surprised. Just when Sister Cai's anger was about to be overwhelmed, he looked excitedly. Shouted: "Xu Jingli! You are Xu Jingli, right?!"

Xu Jingli was puzzled, and she recognized it. This face was indeed somewhat familiar: "You are..."

"Cao Yufu, you have three eyes."

The young man lifted the long hair on his forehead, revealing a scar like a vertical eye on his forehead.

"Three-eyed Cao!"

Xu Jingli also remembered that this is her elementary school classmate, who got such a nickname because of the scar on his forehead.

"it's me."

Seeing that Xu Jingli recognized him, Cao Yufu was very excited, and hurriedly approached him, "I didn't expect to meet you here. I haven't seen you for so many years, but you are getting more and more beautiful..."

This person was a chatterbox when he was in school, and now it is almost a flood—opening his mouth is like opening the gates of the Yellow River, and he can't stop talking.

"Cao Yufu, you didn't come here specifically to chat with me, did you?" Xu Jingli suddenly became suspicious.

"Of course not. If I knew you were working here, I would have come here to make a familiar face."

Cao Yufu categorically denied it, "Today I'm looking for Section Chief Lin Qingchun of your sales department, let me introduce you."

Xu Jingli took a look at him: "Okay! I'll take you to the sales department, but let me declare that I have no right or name, just to introduce you."

"Ham! What's the point of relying on women? I just don't know Section Chief Lin. Thank you in advance." Cao Yufu said that he had no intention of relying on women to make connections, but his smile was very wretched.

An hour later, Cao Yufu knocked on the door of the factory office again, and after getting permission, he entered the room.

"Cao Yufu, the matter is over, thank you."

Cao Yufu still smiled obscenely, "I should have invited you to dinner, but I heard that the food in your cafeteria is good, so please wait until another day. I came to see you for a matter. At nine o'clock on Sunday morning, our elementary school classmates were liberating There is a party at Luhongqi Hotel, you must go there if you have time!"

"Party? Okay, I'll go." Xu Jing thought about it for a while, and nodded in agreement when she felt that the schedule was okay.

"Great! If... the old classmates know, they will be very happy." Cao Yufu looked relieved.

When he left the factory office, Sister Cai frowned and said, "Xiao Xu, I'm not trying to sow discord. Why do I think your classmate is a ghost?"

Xu Jingli didn't think it was disobedient: "He used to be like this when he was in school, with a deceptive appearance."

She looked at her watch: "It's so soon, it's time for dinner again. Sister Cai, hurry up and get dinner."

With that said, she picked up the lunch box and walked out.

"Wait for me."

Sister Cai also hurriedly chased after her with her lunch box—following Xu Jingli, you can take advantage of the meal!

At this moment, Cao Yufu had just walked out of the office building, and he was still muttering: "I haven't seen you for a few years, and Xu Daxia has become stingy, and he doesn't even invite a meal in the cafeteria."

After rolling out his bicycle from the bicycle storage downstairs, Cao Yufu rode his bicycle towards the factory gate... When he was riding near a pile of cement pipes more than a hundred meters away from the factory gate, a man rushed out and knocked him out. Almost fell off the car.

"Hou Kui, can you be more stable, can you afford to pay me for breaking me?" Cao Yufu scolded angrily.

"Brother is a little anxious, have you seen her?"

The person who sprang out was Hou Kui. After he returned from going to the countryside in Shaanxi last year, he stayed at home for half a year before he found a job as a salesman in a silk shop... Yes, it was the silk shop that his mother inherited. State-run, Hou Kui can be considered a state-run employee.

"I saw it, but my buddy is hungry."

Cao Yufu also didn't get out of the car, the car was slightly tilted, with one foot on the ground for support, squinting at Hou Kui, with an expression of 'I'm sure you'.

"You are cruel!"

Hou Kui was not annoyed, pointed at the other party, turned around and pushed out the bicycle parked behind the cement pipe, "Let's go, lunch buddies are invited."

The two rode their bicycles and arrived at a state-run hotel not too far from the rolling mill in a short while.

"Just here."

Cao Yufu refused to go any further, "I suspect that you want to starve me to death on the way, so as to save money for this meal."

"Screw you."

Hou Kui almost laughed angrily: "Look at how promising you are."

The two parked outside the station, locked the car, and walked into the restaurant together... In this year's state-owned company, the staff are really good. When the two walked into the store, there were not many people eating, but those few A waiter leaned against the toll window to talk, and ignored the two of them at all, while Hou Kui and Cao Yufu didn't care either.

There is a small blackboard hanging next to the charging window, with the names and prices of some dishes written on it.

"A plate of burnt fat sausage, a plate of fried meat with scallions, a plate of soy sauce, a plate of fried spinach, and a plate of hot and sour soup. Four taels of rice, two bottles of beer...Cao Yufu, is that enough?" Hou Kuiyi After ordering four dishes and one soup in one breath, he ordered staple food and wine, then turned to look at Cao Yufu.

"Enough, definitely enough." Cao Yufu's eyes lit up. This was hard food. Although he was already a wage earner, he really couldn't afford it...he could eat half a month's salary in a short while.

While waiting for the food and drinks, Hou Kui couldn't wait to ask: "You have succeeded now, don't fool me."

"It was you who succeeded."

Cao Yufu rolled his eyes, then told the story of seeing Xu Jingli, and finally said: "I didn't expect Xu Jingli to be more beautiful, no wonder you are fascinated by her since you were in elementary school."

"That is."

Hou Kui was quite proud, but his expression darkened. If it wasn't for that matter, he could have been in the same class as Xu Jing. It wouldn't be like now, and he would have to play tricks when he met.

"Did she agree to go to the party?" Hou Kui was most concerned about this question.

"Then let's see who is in charge!"

Cao Yufu looked terrified, but then reminded: "However, with Xu Jingli's temperament, if you are the only one at that time, then she will definitely turn around and leave."

"Don't worry, I still don't know her character?"

Hou Kui said confidently: "Get in touch with all the students in our class who can be contacted, so that when there are more people, she will be even more embarrassed to refuse."

"More people may be a good thing, but more people means higher costs. Those who have already worked earn less, and some have just returned to the city. It is good to have temporary jobs. They can't afford it." Cao Yufu reminded road.

"You don't need to pay for it. I paid the money alone, but it's just a month's salary." Hou Kui said grandly.

"You cow!"

Cao Yufu gave him a thumbs up, but his eyes were already fixed on the first plate of hard food brought up.

……

Xu Jingli was standing in the line with her lunch box, and from time to time, young workers and peacocks would walk around in front of her. At the beginning, she still had a warm face, but now she has become as calm as an old dog. Most of these workers are simple and unpretentious. In Xu Jingli's view, their performance was very clumsy, and they didn't dare to take any further actions.

Not long after, Xu Jingli lined up at the window. Today, the window was Liu Lan. Director Li was investigated by the superiors last year. When he got to the end, Liu Lan and his affairs were picked up by someone. He Yuzhu firmly denied the relationship between Liu Lan and Director Li, and then left her in the cafeteria. For this reason, Liu Lan cried a lot, feeling that she didn't know how to repay He Yuzhu.And it's no secret that Xu Jingli and Liu Hao have a relationship in the back kitchen, so they are given preferential treatment when eating-the dishes are thick and the meat is thick.

"Aunt Lan, one serving of potatoes and beef, one serving of cold cauliflower, and one serving of steamed buns."

Liu Lan's spoon sank, and the amount of the dish was almost one and a half. The most rare thing was that a few large pieces of beef slipped into the spoon... This is everyone's ability and connections, and the people behind can do nothing when they see it.Of course, those who share the same office with Xu Jingli as Sister Cai can also receive some preferential treatment, but those who will not have that treatment in the future.

"Xiao Xu, Master He asked you to come over." Liu Lan handed over another sentence when collecting the meal ticket.

"Understood, thank you Aunt Lan."

Xu Jingli agreed, entered through the door next to it, and walked towards the back kitchen.

"Jingli, this way."

As soon as she entered the back kitchen, she heard He Yuzhu's voice.

"Uncle He, did Haozi send you a letter?" Xu Jingli ran over like a cheerful deer.

"Something is brought to you, and maybe the letter is in it."

He Yuzhu handed her a package...Most of these packages were sorted by Lou Xiaoe, and some things for Xu Jingli were also wrapped in it by the way, and the other package was quite strange.

"Thank you Uncle He."

Xu Jingli weighed the package... about seven or eight catties, which may be a bit heavy for others, but she really didn't take it seriously, "I'm leaving."

"Let's go, let's go. Don't worry, he's fine." He Yuzhu waved his hand and said, this package is very big, and it's for Dong Boyang and Qin Zhen.

Back at the office, Sister Cai, who was eating, saw that she came back with a package. After a little thought, she knew who sent it: "Is it from your partner? He should have graduated from high school, and you are planning to get married this year." ?"

"He's still young, so there's no rush." ​​Xu Jingli also opened the lunch box to eat, and had no intention of opening the package in a place like the office.

"He is not in a hurry, you are in a hurry!"

Sister Cai said with concern: "You are 25 years old this year. The later you get married, the more difficult and dangerous it is to have a child. Think of a way and register earlier."

"Let it be." Xu Jingli really didn't take it seriously.

When getting off work, Xu Jingli put the package on the back seat of the bicycle and tied it up before riding home with confidence.

"Sister, that teacher Guan from Baihua Publishing House is here to see you." As soon as he entered the gate, he saw the third sister Xu Jingtian running out to message.

"Oh, please ask him to wait a moment." Xu Jing thought for a while, and asked Xu Jingtian to help inform her that she would simply clean up her personal hygiene first.

It's hot now, with sweat all over the way and dust all the way, Xu Jingli is not feeling well anyway.

Xu Jingtian agreed and ran into the main room, but Xu Jingli went into the 'bathroom'. They were all girls, and Cai Quanwu reserved a separate room for the four of their mothers to take a bath. It can be seen that this is the real warm man.

There were guests waiting, and Xu Jingli didn't want to delay too long.She sent the package and satchel back to the house, then went to the bathroom and simply wiped off the sweat on her face and upper body with a wet towel, and then came to the main room.

"Editor Guan, you are a rare visitor." As soon as Xu Jingli entered the room, she greeted Guan Yunshan with a smile.

"It's the deputy editor-in-chief, the deputy editor-in-chief." Guan Yunshan said modestly.

He paused for a while, and said: "I came here today to tell you two good news. The first batch of 15 copies of "Northern Country Grass" has been sold out, and the second printing of 30 copies is in overtime. "Self-study for college entrance examination" "The 15 copies of the second printing are almost sold out, and the third printing is being prepared."

"It's a good thing."

Xu Jingli was also quite happy, "However, Deputy Editor-in-Chief Guan is here to report good news, right?"

There are a few places above, it is wrong to write Guan Yunshan as Guan Zili.
