It has been a full week since Tong Wenjie was promoted.
Fangyuan was on the plane back to Beijing in the morning. Although the journey was tiring, Fangyuan still decided to perform well on the eve of his upcoming promotion.
So he didn't ask Tong Wenjie to pick him up, and chose to go back to the company alone to finish the work.
Fangyuan was thinking that tomorrow happened to be Monday, so she could welcome her first day of promotion with a perfect attitude.
……
"Cousin, cousin, our account already has 3,114,369 fans." Lei'er shared the news with her cousin happily.
Fang Yifan put down the book in his hand helplessly: "Lei'er, you just told me 10 minutes ago, have you forgotten?"
Lei'er said a little aggrievedly: "It was 3.112200 just now, and now it is 3.114396. I want to tell you that 2196 fans have been added."
"Do you want me to compliment you on your mental arithmetic skills?"
Fang Yifan really regretted his decision to hand over the mobile phone of the account with Xiaoba's cute pet diary to Lei'er for safekeeping for one day.
Allow him to reply to fans' comments and interact with fans.
But this is like opening Pandora's box. Lei'er will come over after a while to tell you how much the number of fans has increased.
He is exactly the same as himself back then. Although Fang Yifan can understand it, he cannot accept it!
"If you come here and say these things to me again, I will take back your right to keep it." Fang Yifan had no choice but to be cruel.
"Lei'er, Fanfan, come here and help me wash the dishes. Get ready for us to eat hot pot."
Tong Wenjie, who came back early today, decided to give Fangyuan a surprise.
"Here! Mom, let me get it." Fang Yifan ran over and took a lot of bags from his mother.
"You bought so many delicious things?" I couldn't wait to open it and take a look.
Prawns, beef, mutton, crabs and various vegetables and soy products.
"Just be active while eating hot pot, Lei'er, leave your brother alone and let him wash himself!"
"It's okay, aunt. I'll go help my cousin."
"After washing it, put it on the table. Your dad will be back soon."
"Okay."
For the first time, Fangyuan felt the joy of working overtime and smelled the tangy aroma of hot pot as soon as she walked in.
"Do you want to eat hot pot today?" Fangyuan asked while taking off his shoes.
"Yeah, aren't you lucky enough to be on a business trip? Besides, I have some good news for you."
"My dear wife, do you have any good news for me?"
"Sit down and eat, and talk while you eat. Both children can't wait."
"Yes, Dad, I have been hungry for a long time."
"Okay, here we go."
Tong Wenjie gave Fangyuan several pieces of oysters: "I took Jenny's place last week."
Fangyuan happily enjoyed the advice from his wife: "Jenny is your annoying boss? So you have been promoted?"
Tong Wenjie recalled what happened that day with some emotion: "It's her. I'm the director now."
"This is a good thing! What about Jenny? She has also been promoted?"
"No, I'll tell you the specifics tonight." Tong Wenjie glanced at the two children.
"Fanfan, go get me my wine." Fangyuan felt that it would be a pity not to drink some wine on such a happy day.
"Here, I'll pour it for you."
"Thank you, son! After eating, go and look in dad's bag. There are gifts for you and Lei'er."
"Thank you, dad!" "Thank you, uncle!"
"Isn't it mine?" Tong Wenjie asked a little jealously.
"How could it not be possible? I'll look for it myself in a moment."
"I also have a gift for you." Tong Wenjie said a little shyly.
"There are children here, please pay attention." Fang Yifan was speechless looking at the two people showing affection in front of him.
"Eat yours quickly." Tong Wenjie, furious, put a big crab in Fang Yifan's bowl.
Then he placed all the remaining oysters in front of Fangyuan, who suddenly understood what his wife’s gift was.
Needless to say, let’s eat.
Every oyster is a strength! Wise words from middle-aged man Fangyuan.
"Close the door!"
"The big bad wolf is coming!"
"Be gentle, Fanfan and the others haven't slept yet."
(Three thousand words are omitted.)
……
The next day, Fangyuan, holding her waist, hummed a little tune and walked into the company door.
Colleagues who had already known the news in advance looked at Fang Yuan with some sympathy as he walked in: "Old Fang, you are getting stronger with time."
Fangyuan's face was a little red and she waved her hand and showed her colleague the transparent thermos cup in her hand.
The half-full bottle was filled with wolfberry. The colleague nodded clearly and gave Fangyuan a thumbs up.
Then Fangyuan received a bolt from the blue when he was called to his boss's office - he was laid off.
When I reach middle age, my family has a car loan, a house loan, and two high school seniors who are about to take the college entrance examination.
Their future tuition fees, living expenses, even buying a house and a car after graduating from college, and having two elderly people to support, etc., suddenly fell on Fangyuan like a big mountain.
As the backbone of his family, he suddenly lost all awareness of the outside world.
Like a walking zombie, he signed the contract, packed his luggage, and when other people talked to him, he didn't hear what was said at all.
He returned home in a state of confusion, not knowing how to treat his wife and children who were about to return home.
How to tell them that their most reliable husband and father suddenly lost his job.
They found out about the unemployed husband. Will the father be affected in the future?
That’s right!
We can't let them find out, whether it's to give ourselves an acceptable process or not to disappoint our wives and children.
You can't let them find out, you just need to find the next job quickly.
Fangyuan hid the things he brought back and rubbed his face vigorously with his hands.
I smiled hard in the mirror and tried my best to return to my usual state.
……
"Honey, I'm back." Tong Wenjie, who came back earlier than Fang Yifan and Lin Lei'er, gave Fang Yuan a big hug as soon as she came back.
Fangyuan froze as he was being hugged, fearing that Tong Wenjie would ask questions about his promotion.
He quickly changed the subject: "I'm not coming today, I'm not coming."
But whether this is true or just to change the subject, only Fangyuan himself knows.
"What are you talking about? You are a crooked old man." Tong Wenjie patted Fangyuan.
Fangyuan giggled: "Lei'er and Fanfan will be back soon, I'll go cook first."
Tong Wenjie rolled her eyes at Fangyuan: "Go quickly and make something they like to eat."
"I know." Fang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had escaped.
