When I woke up the next morning, Shen Man went out early in the morning.
But even if it was early in the morning, she still had to finish her meal. She was not in a hurry to go to work in the factory, and it didn't matter if she was late. No one would care about her anyway.
I went to the grocery store and looked around, and there were indeed a lot of people queuing up. There weren't many things on sale, and there was a large group of people behind me.
The supply is tight now, especially for food, and there is nothing we can do about it.
There are only so many things produced, not much can be retained, and some are left as welfare, so there are not many things sold.
When walking back, Shen Man put his hand in the basket covered with cloth, and there was an extra piece of meat about five kilograms in it.
She also wanted to take more, but the refrigerator at home was only so big, so she couldn't put more in it.
When she got home, she put down the basket and went to work, but she was already late.
Li Jinhua looked at the large piece of meat with a smile on her face, and immediately cut it up, setting aside a piece for today's meal, and freezing the rest first, otherwise it will spoil easily.
"Dachengzi?" she shouted.
Gu Dacheng came out of the room and said, "What are you doing?"
He has become accustomed to staying in the city these days. He doesn't have to go to the fields every day. He can go out and watch others play chess when he has nothing to do. He feels quite comfortable. No wonder they are all willing to go into the city.
Li Jinhua pointed at the meat and said, "Make dumplings in the evening and chop out the meat filling in the afternoon."
"You're still making dumplings on this hot day? It's really hard for you." Gu Dacheng looked at her in disbelief.
It's very hot in the middle of the afternoon, and I have to make dumplings. It's so hard to think about.
"What the hell do you know?" Li Jinhua rolled her eyes and said, "My daughter-in-law loves to eat dumplings. She doesn't know how to eat other dishes, so she eats a lot of dumplings?"
But she noticed it because Gu Chen also likes to eat pasta.
Hearing what she said, Gu Dacheng stopped being stubborn and said, "Okay, okay, can't I just chop it up?"
Can't afford to offend.
Li Jinhua nodded with satisfaction, "I wish I had said this earlier."
…
When Shen Man arrived at the unit, he began to sort out the translation work.
After making sure there were no errors, she put it into the document bag. Because this article was very important, she had to make sure it was absolutely perfect.
Otherwise, if something goes wrong, she will be considered incompetent.
"Director Shen, are you going out?" Ma Xiaoli asked when she saw she was carrying a bag and carrying a document bag.
Shen Man nodded and said, "You can go out if you want. We'll get busy tomorrow."
During this time, she was thinking about developing new products, but she needed to check some information.
After hearing this, Ma Xiaoli was not polite and followed her out.
It's just that the two of them didn't agree with each other, so they took the shuttle bus and left.
When they arrived at the place, Shen Man found Zhang Qi and handed over the documents he had translated.
"Wait for Comrade Shen Man." Seeing that she was about to leave, Zhang Qi quickly stopped her and said, "We have to settle the payment this time."
Last time, the settlement was not settled immediately because it needed to be reviewed. After all, it was Shen Man's first time translating, so he had to check his level.
If you're sure it's okay, I'll pay you directly this time and give it to the next mission.
Shen Man took the document and said helplessly: "Isn't this too tight?"
As soon as she finished the job, she was given another job as a translator for three people a month. To be honest, she was a little tired.
After all, you have to lower your head to write all the time. There are no computers now, so the translation is all done by hand.
Hearing this, Zhang Qi smiled and replied: "Comrade Shen Man, we have few talents here, so we have many tasks. However, we have no time limit. You can take your time, there is no need to rush."
There is no definite time limit, so you can submit it at any time.
Hearing this, Shen Man felt relieved and went back with the documents and the envelope containing the reward.
This time the reward is 700 yuan. Good boy, she has found a way to get rich.
In fact, they didn't expect Shen Man's foreign language skills to be so high at first.
To easily translate a few articles at this level would cost one to two thousand yuan.
The main reason is that there are not many talents now. Basically, they haven’t returned to the city yet and they are all working.
Back at work, Shen Man put the money in the space, and then looked at this article again. It was the same difficulty as last time, and it was okay.
Now she is not in a hurry, just take her time.
After returning home in the evening, Li Jinhua made dumplings stuffed with cabbage and celery. Because the cabbage alone had no flavor and the celery was not fresh enough, the two were particularly delicious together.
"Eat more." Li Jinhua was very happy to see Shen Man eating well.
It’s fine if you can eat it, but you’re afraid you won’t be able to eat it if you’re pregnant. Some people suffer even more from vomiting whatever they eat.
"Mom, my eldest brother and the others should arrive tomorrow. Let's live here with you first." After Gu Chen finished speaking, he continued to eat.
Li Jinyuan called him today to inform him. In fact, he came quite late. Logically speaking, he should have come here long ago.
Li Jinhua was very happy when she heard that her eldest son and his family were coming.
After going around and around, the whole family is together again.
In the evening, after washing her feet, Shen Man lay on the bed and remembered what she had said during the meal.
She looked at Gu Chen and said, "Brother, they are here to live with my parents. Can they squeeze in?"
The house over there is about the same size as theirs. If they lived like that, Gu Nan and the old couple would have to squeeze into the same bed.
Gu Chen closed his eyes and replied: "Let Gu Nan stay with us. When the eldest brother's work arrangements are made, we will let them go out to live."
Now that we are living alone, we can't live in their house, right?
Seeing what he said, Shen Man didn't ask any more questions.
The next morning, I got up and went to work as usual, and Gu Chen went to pick someone up in the afternoon.
Anyway, by the time Shen Man got home from get off work, everyone was already here.
Li Jinyuan and his wife also came with their children.
However, when Shen Man entered the door, he saw that the atmosphere was not quite right. Li Mei blushed and had a complicated look in her eyes.
The others looked unhappy.
What's going on here?
"Brother and sister-in-law." Shen Man should say hello or say hello.
No matter what happens, the situation on her end requires courtesy.
No one said anything. After a while, Li Jinyuan spoke.
"You can do it if you want to. If you don't want to, I won't hire you. Do you really think that the jobs in the city are like cabbage and are everywhere?" His tone was not very good.
Originally, this job took him a long time, and it was a favor.
I took out another two hundred yuan as compensation, and then I got a job.
Unexpectedly, Li Mei disliked Gu Yuan without saying anything.
This made him very angry.
When Gu Yuan heard this, he hurriedly said: "Uncle, what are you talking about? It's not easy for you to find a job for me. How can I dislike it? Don't listen to Mei Zi's nonsense. She doesn't understand."
He was taken away with just a few words of incomprehension.
Li Mei wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to say it. She was so excited just now that she regretted saying something about her bad work.
She knew that going to the city was not easy, so how could she be picky about jobs?
It's too late to regret now, all the words have been spoken.
