Chapter 1016 Changing jobs
Seeing Qiao Chunyan looking at him expectantly, Lin Hao said with a smile:
"Don't report to the bathhouse yet. I'll talk to them tomorrow and see if they can recruit you to the tractor factory!"
"Really? You didn't lie to me, right?" Qiao Chunyan asked in disbelief.
"Really~!" Lin Hao confirmed again: "What is our relationship? How could I lie to you!"
"I'm not dreaming!" Qiao Chunyan murmured to herself. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her arm. Then she slapped Lin Hao's hand away and said:
"Hey, why are you pinching me?"
"Dreamers can't feel pain. Is that confirmed now?" Lin Hao said with a smile.
"Hehe~, it hurts!" Qiao Chunyan said with a silly smile.
"Don't be happy so early, and don't show off everywhere. You don't know what the result will be!" Lin Hao reminded finally.
"Bingkun, you are so nice!" Qiao Chunyan felt relieved and was very happy.
"Then how will you reward me?" Lin Hao asked proudly.
"Muma!" Qiao Chunyan kissed Lin Hao on the face, then wanted to run away shyly.
However, Lin Hao pulled her back and kissed her directly on the lips.
After a long while, they parted their lips. Qiao Chunyan looked around and confirmed that no one was around before she patted Lin Hao and said:
"You're crazy, what if someone sees you?"
"Don't worry, no one will see it!" Lin Hao said as he hugged Qiao Chunyan and patted her back gently.
"Brother Bingkun, I, I'll go back first!" Qiao Chunyan wanted to escape shyly.
"I'll take you there!" Lin Hao then escorted Qiao Chunyan home. It must be said that this girl was quite likable.
Qiao Chunyan has a very generous, passionate and chivalrous personality. She was very likable in the early days, but so annoying in the later days. It can only be said that she learned it from someone.
This is also the reason why Lin Hao chose Qiao Chunyan instead of Zheng Juan.
It’s not that Zheng Juan is a bad person, but her personality is too gentle, yet a little stubborn. She is willing to work hard, but doesn’t like to communicate with others.
When I leave in the future, it will be too easy to suffer losses when facing Zhou's father and mother, including Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Rong.
Her personality is actually quite suitable for Cai Xiaoguang. Although Cai Xiaoguang behaves too much like a bootlicker, he is not mean. Zheng Juan is too weak and is suitable to be protected by someone with a strong personality.
On the contrary, it was Qiao Chunyan, who has a strong personality, dares to speak and act, and is not someone who will easily suffer a loss, who was able to protect Zhou Bingkun.
······
The next day.
Cai Xiaoguang got up, his mind still thinking about the beautiful dream he had last night, and he felt surprisingly sweet in his heart.
But then he thought of Zhou Rong and muttered to himself, "It's over. I'm afraid I've fallen in love with someone else!"
It turned out that he dreamed of Zheng Juan, the girl selling candied haws, in his dream last night, and confessed his love to her in the dream. Later, they went traveling together, watched the sunrise and sunset together, it was so romantic!
They were truly in love, and finally got married and even thought of a name for their child.
But when I woke up, I found that I was dreaming. However, when I thought of the girl Zheng Juan I met yesterday, I felt itchy again.
"Well, why don't we ask someone about it~!"
In fact, he was not the only one who had a wet dream last night. Zheng Juan also dreamed of Cai Xiaoguang, a sunny and cheerful boy.
But her concerns were much more serious than Cai Xiaoguang's. After all, she was illiterate, didn't even have a household registration, and had a blind brother.
"Ah~!" Zheng Juan sighed helplessly in her heart: "If only he were an ordinary person!"
······
When Lin Hao arrived at the factory, he saw Cai Xiaoguang, who was distracted, so he smiled and joked:
"What's going on? It's not even spring yet, but you're already in heat?"
"Go away! Who's horny?" Cai Xiaoguang was like a cat whose foot had been stepped on, and he almost jumped up to refute.
"Then what are you doing here in a daze?" Lin Hao looked at Cai Xiaoguang carefully and said:
"Sweeping the floor won't bring you happiness!"
"Don't interrupt! I'm really annoyed!" Cai Xiaoguang said in a troubled tone.
Then Lin Hao asked knowingly: "Tell me, what happened? See if I can help!"
However, upon hearing this, Cai Xiaoguang said awkwardly: "This, that~!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Seeing Cai Xiaoguang's anxious look, Lin Hao deliberately urged him impatiently:
"We're about to start work, tell us what's going on!"
Cai Xiaoguang summoned up his courage and said, "I want you to help me find out what happened to the daughter who was selling candied haws yesterday?"
"Oh, you really like her!" Lin Hao said jokingly, "Have you forgotten my sister so quickly?"
Cai Xiaoguang felt embarrassed when he heard this. He thought about himself and felt that he had lost his mind.
How can I ask Zhou Bingkun about this matter? Even if I like Zheng Juan, I should ask other people.
If he went directly to Zhou Bingkun to inquire, wouldn't that be a slap in their face? Besides, he had also ruined their family's reunion.
Seeing that Cai Xiaoguang looked guilty, Lin Hao shook his head helplessly. His words just now probably touched his sore spot again.
In fact, Lin Hao didn’t really blame Cai Xiaoguang. He felt more sorry for him. It was really hard to be so stubborn as to act like a bootlicker.
"That's enough!" Lin Hao patted Cai Xiaoguang on the shoulder and then comforted him:
"Don't take my sister's affairs too seriously. I know her personality better than you do. Even if you don't help her go to Guizhou, she will still find a way to go!"
"We can tell from the fact that even though she knew she was assigned to the Northwest, she still managed to find a way to go to Guizhou to find Feng Huacheng. She can't be stopped!"
"Besides, she caused your father to be demoted, so I'm actually glad that you don't like my sister!"
"If you and my sister get together, with your personality of always putting my sister first, my sister will be able to ascend to heaven on the spot after being with you, believe it or not!"
"So you don't have to worry about me having any problem with you. Even if I do, it's towards my sister. So don't worry about Zheng Juan. I will definitely help you!"
"Thanks, brother!" Cai Xiaoguang patted Lin Hao's shoulder gratefully.
After saying goodbye to Cai Xiaoguang, Lin Hao prepared to leave and headed towards the office building.
"Are you going to the office building?" Cai Xiaoguang asked curiously.
"Yes, a childhood friend of mine from the alley was assigned to the bathhouse to give people pedicures..."
Lin Hao briefly explained Qiao Chunyan's situation and finally said, "I just want to help her find a new job!"
However, after listening to this, Cai Xiaoguang was impressed that Lin Hao could actually help people change jobs. But thinking about Lin Hao's performance yesterday, he was able to have a good chat with the senior management of the tractor factory, and it seemed that it was not surprising that he could help people change jobs. He was still a street activist, and he was supposed to be assigned a job. Now he was just changing his job, not arranging someone to work in the factory out of thin air.
Then his perspective shifted to the side, so he asked curiously, "You and your childhood friend, are you a couple?"
"Isn't this nonsense?" Lin Hao said unhappily.
I arrived at the office building and found the factory director's office. After a heart-to-heart talk with the director, I told him about Qiao Chunyan's job change.
The factory manager said that there was no problem at all, as long as Qiao Chunyan had not reported for work, he could solve other issues with just one phone call.
Things went smoothly as expected. Before leaving get off work in the afternoon, Lin Hao received Qiao Chunyan's registration notice.
When he got home, Qiao Chunyan was waiting for him at the entrance of the alley. Seeing Lin Hao coming back, Qiao Chunyan asked anxiously:
"Brother Bingkun, how is it?"
"This is not the place to talk!" Lin Hao nodded, and then said: "Let's go to your house first!"
"Okay!" Seeing this, Qiao Chunyan instantly felt relieved from Lin Hao's attitude, although Lin Hao didn't say anything.
After arriving at the Qiao family, although Uncle Qiao and Aunt Qiao didn't know why Lin Hao came to their house, they still greeted him warmly.
"Bingkun, come and have some water!" Aunt Qiao poured a glass of water for Lin Hao, then glanced at Qiao Chunyan, and then said with a smile:
"Bingkun, are you here to see Auntie for something?"
"Yes!" Lin Hao nodded, then smiled and said to Qiao Chunyan:
"Chunyan, you go ahead and say it!"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Chunyan immediately told her parents what happened yesterday:
"Mom, this is what happened. Wasn't she assigned to the bathing pool to do pedicures? I told Brother Bingkun about this yesterday..."
Finally, Qiao Chunyan said: "This is what happened!"
After hearing this, Aunt Qiao and Uncle Qiao also looked at Lin Hao expectantly, and then said with some trepidation:
"Bingkun, then, what was the result?"
However, she was too concerned to wait for Lin Hao to speak, and was afraid that Lin Hao would not be able to get things done, so Aunt Qiao quickly added:
"No matter whether this succeeds or not, our Qiao family thanks you and will remember your kindness!"
"Aunt Qiao, Uncle Qiao, don't worry!" He handed out the letter of introduction and placed it on the table, then continued:
"Although the process was a bit difficult, at least it lived up to everyone's expectations. Take a look!"
Qiao Chunyan couldn't wait any longer. She took the letter of introduction and read it immediately. Then she said in surprise:
"Ah, it's the cook!"
"It's good to be a cook. At least we don't have to worry about food!" Uncle Qiao finally smiled when he heard this and said, "It's better than giving pedicures in the bathhouse!"
Aunt Qiao also nodded continuously, and finally couldn't help but said:
"Finally I've put down the heavy weight in my heart. She's been feeling uncomfortable these past two days. How could I end up like this, running around for the street, and having my own child do a pedicure for someone else?"
Lin Hao fell silent after hearing this. In fact, it was Aunt Qiao's fault that she was too enthusiastic. No one wanted their children to go to the countryside, but she insisted on doing her job conscientiously. She would run to other people's homes whenever she had time to persuade them to let their children go to the countryside.
Not to mention the distant past, the Zhou family was polite to Aunt Qiao on the surface, but no one in the family wanted to mention her. Even though she and Li Suhua were old sisters, Li Suhua had never said anything good about Aunt Qiao when it came to going to the countryside.
This rural job was purely unpleasant, but the problem was that it was her duty.
If she didn't go and persuade them, the street's mission would not be completed, and she would definitely be punished by her superiors. It might even be difficult for her to do this job in the street.
But if she goes to work in the countryside, she might offend someone. After all, who knows who is behind whom?
So there was a reason why Qiao Chunyan was assigned to the bathhouse to do pedicures. For some people, it was just a matter of words.
Just like how Lin Hao helped Qiao Chunyan change jobs, it was just a phone call from the factory director.
However, Lin Hao was not in a position to explain the matter in detail. After all, those who should be mobilized to go to the countryside had almost all left, and those with connections had already been dealt with, such as Cai Xiaoguang and Zhou Bingyi.
It doesn’t matter. They have offended everyone they should or shouldn’t have offended. It doesn’t matter if they have offended them. It just won’t be easy for them to deal with the Kacho family in the future.
Therefore, there was no need for Lin Hao to tell them about this and cause trouble for them.
"Bingkun, thank you so much this time!" Aunt Qiao was grateful and said happily:
"Well, Chunyan, you and Bingkun, go and invite his mother over. We'll treat you today to thank you for helping Chunyan change her job..."
Lin Hao couldn't refuse, so he went home with Qiao Chunyan and brought Li Suhua over to have dinner together.
During the dinner, the Qiao family expressed special thanks to Lin Hao. They were so enthusiastic that it seemed as if they treated Lin Hao as their son-in-law.
Qiao Chunyan would pick up food for Li Suhua from time to time. Li Suhua liked the cute Qiao Chunyan very much.
Then he smiled and said to Aunt Qiao: "You said Chunyan is a child who is very careful!"
Aunt Qiao praised Lin Hao again to Li Suhua.
"I think your Bingkun is the best. He is very enthusiastic, a man of integrity and responsible!"
"This time, thanks to Bingkun, Chunyan got a new job..."
After dinner, Qiao Chunyan went to wash the dishes, Lin Hao chatted with Uncle Qiao in the main room, and Li Suhua and Aunt Qiao went to the inner room to chat.
Then as they chatted, they talked about Zhou Rong and Zhou Bingyi.
"We can't help it. Bingkun went to the northernmost part of the Northeast and comes back once every two years. One of our husbands went to the deep mountains in the southwest and also comes back once every two years. Another one went to the Gobi Desert in the northwest and we don't know when he will come back!"
Aunt Qiao also said with emotion: "Other families are so scattered all over the world, but your family is different. Not only are there people from all over the world, but there is also a person from the northwest. It's not easy to reunite!"
"Who said it wasn't?" Li Suhua then said with a sad face:
"This year, it was just Bingkun and I for the New Year, and it was a lonely New Year!"
Looking at her busy daughter, Aunt Qiao's heart moved, and then she whispered:
"Hey, how about you come live with us on the second day of the New Year, and we two sisters can have a good chat, and let Chunyan live with you!"
What kind of talk is this!
Li Suhua looked at Aunt Qiao in confusion, her eyes full of disbelief. Although the two children had a good relationship, it was not to the point where Qiao Chunyan should live with her son!
"This is inappropriate!" Li Suhua swallowed with some excitement.
Aunt Qiao simply sat next to Li Suhua, and then whispered, "Let me tell you, our Chunyan really likes your Bingkun!"
At this point, Aunt Qiao was afraid that Li Suhua would misunderstand, so she took the initiative to explain:
"It's not just because of helping her change her job. Look at these two kids, they always go out together!"
