Xue Ling tried to comfort Fajia and finally coaxed Xiao Tong.
Under the wave of labor pains, she slowly endured until the dilation of her cervix reached about ten centimeters. She was pushed into the delivery room feeling dizzy from pain.
Zhu Achun and Xue Ling sat in the passage outside and waited, chatting in low voices.
Zheng Duoduo was pacing back and forth, unable to sit down calmly at all.
Zhu Achun sighed helplessly: "Duoduo and I can't go to the old lady's funeral. Please forgive me for any lack of etiquette... I really can't leave here."
"Where is it?"
How can I walk away when there is no one to take care of me? When the person is gone, the funeral is held for outsiders, while my family contributes money and effort to do the work. This trip to Xinzhi has been a big help, and I am grateful enough."
Zhu Achun smiled: "This is what he should do as a grandson-in-law."
"Xinzhi has become more and more calm." Xue Ling praised: "This time it is all the work of the younger generation, especially Xinzhi and Ranran. Ayuan and I are really overwhelmed by our sadness and the two old people.
.”
Zhu Achun chuckled: "Jiang is still old and hot. The bridge you have walked is longer than the road he has walked. His progress is also due to your support and care, madam. I don't understand anything. I can only hope.
I hope Xiaoxin will graduate as soon as possible and marry her into the family as soon as possible."
Xue Ling laughed dumbly: "I'll graduate next year, so I don't have to wait too long!"
"Hahaha!"
Zheng Duoduo is still walking around, showing no signs of stopping.
"That's a lot!" Zhu Achun couldn't stand it anymore and frowned: "Sit down and wait. You are always going around like this, and we are almost fainted by you."
Zheng Duoduo smiled bitterly and came over.
"Mom, I'm so nervous...I'm so nervous!"
Zhu Achun looked at him funny and said warmly: "Women are like this when giving birth. You, you will be a little nervous when you become a father for the first time. The doctor also said just now that the fetal position is very positive and the cervix is almost dilated. Don't worry.
Both adults and children will go well. It's just that you can't bear the consequences of having a child. If you see how difficult it is for your wife to give birth to children for you, you should be more considerate and loving towards others in the future."
"Of course!" Zheng Duoduo said with a smile: "If I am not good to her, who will I be good to? If she is willing to give me a baby, I have to treat her as an ancestor!"
Xue Ling and Zhu Achun looked at each other and laughed one after another.
"Have you told your parents-in-law? Have you contacted them?"
Zheng Duoduo shook his head: "Xiao Tong won't let me talk. She said that it won't be too late to tell her parents after the child is born safely. My father-in-law has been feeling uncomfortable in his legs and feet recently, saying he is often sore. My mother-in-law has to accompany him to a traditional Chinese medicine hospital for treatment.
Acupuncture and massage, once a day. Xiao Tong didn’t want them to worry, so he told them that the due date is next month, and he planned to wait for his old father-in-law’s legs to recover before letting them come to the imperial capital. He didn’t want his old man to miss the critical treatment period.”
"The environment at the confinement center is good." Xue Ling said: "You can see with your own eyes that the environment is good. Adults and children have dedicated people to take care of them, so they can rest assured."
Zheng Duoduo said helplessly: "It is the two old people who are worrying now. My mother-in-law said that she must come to help take care of her during the confinement period, but my father-in-law's legs and feet are not feeling well at this critical time. I don't want them to come, don't worry."
No less. Let them come, and I’m worried that my father-in-law’s legs and feet won’t be able to bear it. In fact, it’s enough to have my mother and me here. Two people in the confinement center take care of one child and one child 24 hours a day. My mother is responsible for increasing nutrition. I
Take care of the head and tail, so there is no need to make such a trip."
"What do you know!" Zhu Achun glanced at him and explained: "Xiao Tong is their first child, and this is their family's first grandchild. This is a great event. How could the father not run away in person?
One trip! According to the old custom of preparing eggs and old hens, my parents will have to be busy for several days."
Zheng Duoduo shrugged: "Okay, okay."
Xue Ling coughed lightly and lowered his voice: "Have you offended anyone recently? In the company?"
Earlier, she said that her competitors deliberately targeted Zheng Duoduo, firstly to obscure the opponent, and secondly, to stimulate the strength and tenacity in Xiao Tong's nature, and directly used the provocation method.
In fact, the group's position in the northern market has been very stable in recent years. Years of good quality, good reputation, and continuous research and development of products have left a deep advertising effect in the hearts of customers, which cannot be attacked by ordinary opponents.
It's just that Zheng Duoduo is young and energetic after all, and works too hard, so it is inevitable that he will occasionally be too sharp in the mall.
In addition, his methods of managing the entire group sometimes lack some resilience and forbearance, and his methods are more forceful.
Therefore, Xue Ling guessed that this incident was by no means an accident. It was mostly a revenge for Zheng Duoduo, not Xiao Tong, a new mother who had already left her job to study in graduate school.
"...No." Zheng Duoduo was a little confused and said: "Working is the same as before! The group is as usual inside and outside, everything is the same as before, there is nothing abnormal!"
Xue Ling thought for a while and asked, "Have you fired anyone?"
"No." Zheng Duoduo replied: "I have demoted two or three people. The work pressure is high. As long as the work is completed in a disciplined manner, unless I make a big mistake or touch the bottom line of the group's interests, I will not easily
Dismiss people. Even if they are dismissed, it will be done according to formal procedures."
Xue Ling raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who are the ones who were demoted?"
"The two managers and deputy managers sent to open up the southwest market." Zheng Duoduo explained: "They spent more money and did less work. They only got a few small orders in half a year. They kept complaining all day long that the market there was difficult to conquer.
Others went there for a shorter period of time than they did, and last month there were several orders worth tens of millions! They were not doing things well, and they were enjoying themselves outside with the company's money to develop the market. I drove them all back, demoted them, and reduced their salaries.
Even the bonuses at the end of the year were fined. Then a veteran and two rising stars were replaced, and they were asked to take office immediately."
Xue Ling frowned and thought for a while, then whispered: "Let's start investigating the three of them."
"Sister Ling, are you sure you don't want to call the police?" Zheng Duoduo asked dissatisfiedly: "You are not going to handle it internally, are you? This is not a trivial matter! If there is anything wrong with my wife and children - I will kill them!"
Xue Ling patted his arm: "Calm down and listen to me first."
"Don't worry." Zhu Achun glared at him and reassured: "My wife naturally has her own arrangements. When you get anxious, you get angry. Where is the calmness you should have at ordinary times?"
Zheng Duoduo hesitated and shut up.
Xue Ling cast a grateful look at Zhu Achun and whispered: "It concerns my wife and children, and it is still at such an urgent moment. It is inevitable that I cannot think calmly. Don't worry, let's check carefully and see if it is them first.
