As the little goldfish’s birthday has passed, the Spring Festival is not far away.
On this day, it snowed heavily again in Beijing, which had been sunny for just a few days.
Many people looked at the heavy snow and couldn't help but look worried, thinking that it wouldn't be the same heavy snow as last time, right?
In fact, it is.
It started snowing heavily in the morning and didn't stop until the evening.
Zhou Jimin rode his bicycle to work at the steel rolling mill in the morning. He couldn't go home for lunch at noon, so he had to eat in the cafeteria.
He hasn't eaten in the cafeteria a few times. It's not that the food cooked by He Yuzhu is not delicious, but that there is no meat.
Therefore, after eating in the canteen once, Zhou Jimin would only go to the canteen with his lunch box to show off, take the food prepared in the space back to the office, and eat in hiding.
However, at noon today, as soon as he left the cafeteria, Xu Mei and a few girls from the finance department caught up with him.
"Zhou Jimin, why are you running so fast? Let's have dinner together."
Want to rub my flesh?
Zhou Jimin knew very well what Xu Mei and the others thought, and wanted to find an opportunity to change the lunch boxes later.
He couldn't refuse, so he could only ask Xu Mei and the others to follow them back to the office.
However, when Xu Mei and the others saw the vegetarian dishes in his lunch box, they were speechless.
This is not a vegetarian dish in the canteen. If you can bring your own food, why go to the canteen?
Zhou Jimin didn't bother to explain their incomprehension and wanted to take advantage of my meal?
There are no doors.
In the afternoon, when the snow was still falling, Lao Liang came over.
After solving Lao Liang's technical problem, Zhou Jimin suddenly asked: Is Xu Mei married?
Xu Mei has good looks and a good figure. At least in terms of all aspects, she is a little better than Ding Qiunan.
And the chief of the finance department is really not short of money.
"Why are you asking about her?" Lao Liang asked, "She was born in 1934. She married a soldier a few years ago, but, alas, she was a miserable child."
"..." Zhou Jimin was speechless, it turned out that he was a widow again.
By the way, why are there so many widows in the steel rolling mill?
However, this is not surprising.
In fact, this is a situation that only exists in this era.
Less than ten years after the founding of the country, a battle was fought, resulting in countless casualties.
Like the Zhou family, Xu Mei's family, etc., these are the families of most people in this era.
Of course, compared to widows, Xu Mei is not that miserable.
The main reason is that Xu Mei’s salary is high, she has enough food and clothing, and she has a good job.
Even if she is a widow, there are many matchmakers who are willing to introduce partners for her, but she has high vision, so she has never remarried.
After knowing Xu Mei's age, Zhou Jimin breathed a sigh of relief.
There is a nine-year age difference between the two, so the other party is not so crazy about wanting to marry him, right?
After reviewing myself and making sure that there was nothing out of the ordinary or outstanding, I felt relieved.
After get off work, the snow did not decrease, and even got heavier.
The road was not easy to walk on, so Zhou Jimin had no choice but to walk towards the courtyard of Anningzhuang one step at a time.
But before he walked out of the steel rolling mill, Xu Mei caught up with him again.
"...."
The idea of letting Ah Fu and the others drag him back to the courtyard in the city came to nothing.
Xu Mei was a little excited and shared a lot of boring things with Zhou Jimin.
It seemed interesting to her, but boring to him, because it was basically just trivial matters in the workplace.
"The Spring Festival will be here in half a month. I wonder if there will be any pork outbreaks in the factory this year?"
"I think so. The factory's performance this year is quite good."
Hearing Zhou Jimin's words, Xu Mei smiled.
"Yes, you participate in production meetings every day, so you must know better than me. By the way, do you know when the purchasing department will purchase materials?"
"How do I know?"
Zhou Jimin rolled his eyes and shook his head.
She insisted on chatting, so he just cooperated and played along.
Shouldn’t the Finance Department know better when the Purchasing Department purchases?
After all, purchasing things requires money, and the money must be obtained from the Finance Department.
After chatting for a while, the two of them went back to their homes at a fork in the city.
Zhou Jimin doesn't care about the meat in the factory. Xu Mei brought up this topic because she just wanted to share it.
Turning around, the sky was clear and it turned out to be a sunny day.
But the road is still not that easy.
Many people are shoveling the snow, and the snow on the road has finally been cleared.
In the morning, while he was fishing in the office, the doorman came over and told him that someone was looking for him.
When I came out, I saw, oh, it was Fu Weipeng from the Liu Family Brigade.
Outside the city, he was closer to Qinjiazhuang, or to be precise, closer to Qin Jianguo.
However, the Liu Family Brigade and several other brigades also have a good relationship with him.
Fu Weipeng is a better person and is the son-in-law of the brigade leader's family, so his relationship with Zhou Jimin is not bad.
"Hey, it's Brother Peng, let's go and sit in my office."
"No, Jimin, it's like this. My father-in-law said, please come to the Liu Family Brigade soon."
Seeing that the other party looked a little anxious, Zhou Jimin frowned and said:
"What happened?"
But I saw Fu Weipeng hesitating and not saying a word for a long time.
Zhou Jimin, whose heart skipped a beat, quickly asked sternly, and then the other party revealed the matter.
What happened is also very simple. The captain of the Liu family admired Zhou Jimin very much.
I am even more grateful to the latter for previously acquiring Dabaili and helping the Liu family tide over the difficulties.
However, before New Year's Day, the news that the Qinjiazhuang meeting to prune the reservoir went unfinished reached the ears of Fu Weipeng's father-in-law.
However, his father-in-law listened and found someone to start looking for a suitable place to dig a reservoir.
Not long after, the villagers who went to sell things at the pigeon market in the city came back. The team leader heard that someone was selling large white pears, and they were still two cents a pound.
And those big white pears were actually pears purchased from several brigades outside the city.
The captain was even more convinced that Zhou Jimin was a very capable person, and immediately summoned the villagers to start building the reservoir.
But wasn’t it snowy yesterday? Something happened at the reservoir.
Two villagers' fingers burst and froze. As a result, they accidentally failed to hold the cart firmly while carrying the stones. The cart slipped out, and the stone on the cart slipped, injuring two other villagers.
Originally, this was a private behavior of the Liu Family Brigade and had nothing to do with Zhou Jimin.
But the captain didn't know what he was thinking. He had to ask Fu Weipeng to come and ask Zhou Jimin what to do next?
Zhou Jimin was speechless, "How are the two villagers?"
To be honest, this really has something to do with him.
"The leg is broken!"
"As long as everything is fine, it's okay, okay, okay. In this case, just wait for me, and I'll take a leave right away and go to the Liu Family Brigade with you."
For both emotional and rational reasons, he should go take a look.
Qinjiazhuang is unreasonable, so he has to go and see for himself whether the Liujiazhuang can help it up.
After all, he has two younger brothers and two younger sisters, so he has to think about it in a few years.
Although he can arrange for the four children to work in advance, the problem is that a rebellious boy will emerge from among them. If they want to go to the countryside to experience life, he might as well arrange to go to a place like Liu's Brigade.
If he really wanted to go to far-flung areas such as the Northwest and the South, Zhou Jimin would really be beyond his reach.
As the saying goes, if you don’t have long-term worries, you will have immediate worries, so you might as well go there.
