Chapter 437 Appointment
The next day, it snowed heavily all night, and the wind and snow finally stopped after daybreak.
The snow fell on the walls, gray and black snow piled up on both sides of the road, and pedestrians walked on the shoveled road.
After finishing his breakfast at home, He Yuzhu took the gifts he had prepared, pushed the cart out of the house, and headed towards the staff quarters.
The bicycle shuttled through the streets and alleys and finally came to a building.
The white paint on the exterior walls looked very new, and it was obviously a newly built building complex.
Several five-story buildings are concentrated in this area, which is completely different from the surrounding bungalows.
There is a large open space not far away, with snow piled up. Below it is a construction site where new buildings are still being built.
Unlike the Yumi Xiaofu Building, these are all scaled-down versions due to differences in building materials and technology.
The shared facilities are far inferior to the original version, and the livability is directly reduced by several levels.
After checking the ID at the entrance of the compound, He Yuzhu asked for the specific house number, parked his bicycle and walked towards Building No. 3.
"It should be here~"
He Yuzhu looked up at the number plate on the door, then reached out and knocked on the wooden door.
After knocking twice, he heard the door opening and he quickly withdrew his hand and stopped.
"You are~"
A woman who looked to be about thirty years old opened the door and looked at He Yuzhu with confusion.
When she saw that he was holding something in his hand, a hint of understanding flashed across her face, and she immediately became enthusiastic.
"Are you Xiao He? Please come in. Oh, why did you bring anything with you? It's too expensive."
After she made room, He Yuzhu smiled back: "Sister-in-law, hello! This is my first visit, sorry to bother you!"
As he said this, he handed over the thing in his hand and motioned for her to take it.
The smile on her face became even more enthusiastic. She turned sideways to look at the bedroom and shouted, "Old Chen, come out quickly. Xiao He is here."
"Xiao He, please sit down for a while. I'll make you a cup of new tea."
Leading He Yuzhu to his seat in the small living room.
At this time, Secretary Chen appeared outside the bedroom door. He Yuzhu nodded at him and followed his wife to the seat.
Looking at his sister-in-law busy at the coffee table, He Yuzhu put the gift on the table.
"Sister-in-law, I just came back from Fengtian. I came to your house today and brought some local specialties. It's not much, but it's a token of my appreciation."
Nowadays, food is more precious than anything else, and specialties from other places are even rarer and harder to come by.
Although some families can be excluded, the Chen family is naturally not among them.
The sister-in-law brought the teacup to the table in front of He Yuzhu and smiled brightly.
"Look at what you said. The most precious thing is the thought. Let's visit each other more often in the future. There's no need to be so formal."
Secretary Chen had already walked over and sat down with a smile after hearing this.
"Zhu Zi, your sister-in-law is right. You don't have to be so polite. People coming here is a token of affection."
Of course, you can't just take polite words at face value, you have to do what you should do.
He Yuzhu pointed at the paper bag on the coffee table and said with a smile, "It's not easy to carry other things along the way.
Mainly some mushrooms and other dry goods. Fortunately, it is winter now, so I brought a flying dragon.
I will stew it later, and you two can have a taste of the dragon meat from heaven."
Secretary Chen knew that He Yuzhu had brought something back, but he didn't expect that it would be such a good thing as Feilong.
He had been to Northeast China with Minister Fang and tasted this delicacy.
After listening to He Yuzhu's words, my taste buds seemed to be activated, and the delicious taste in my memory lingered in my mouth.
"Really? That's great! Haha, you are thoughtful."
My sister-in-law was surprised when she saw Secretary Chen’s excitement. It was rare to see him being so excited over a dish.
As if sensing the strange gaze, Secretary Chen turned his head to look at his wife, then immediately came to his senses and coughed lightly.
"Qinghe, go put the meat in water to dissolve it, and let Zhuzi take charge of the cooking later."
My sister-in-law understood what he meant. She gave him a subtle look and then stood up and looked at He Yuzhu.
"Xiao He, you guys chat first. I'll go take care of it. I'll trouble you this afternoon."
She had a good idea of He Yuzhu's cooking skills through the meals that Secretary Chen occasionally brought back.
After Secretary Chen greeted her yesterday, she would not refuse a good thing now.
The big pot dishes in the cafeteria are so delicious, wouldn’t they taste even better if we cook them for ourselves today?
"Well, you're welcome! You can soak some of the hazel mushrooms here, and I'll take care of the rest."
After saying that, he took the paper bag, stood up and handed it to his sister-in-law, watching her walk towards the door.
"Zhu Zi, isn't it nice to stay in Fengtian this time?"
He Yuzhu put down the teacup in his hand and chuckled: "Brother Chen, there really aren't many things to do.
In addition to cooking for Engineer Hu every day, I had a lot of free time, so I took a ride to visit Fengtian City.
But it’s not easy in the factory. Everyone drinks a lot. If I didn’t have the skills, I would have drunk too much.”
These words evoked memories deep in Secretary Chen's mind. Knowing the difficulty of the alcohol test, his body shuddered unconsciously.
"Hiss~ Zhuzi, you're right, I've been drunk a lot before.
Haha, it has to be you! In the future, when there is a game, you have to come and help me, so that I can save face."
The implicit meaning of his words was to pull him into his circle. He Yuzhu had no reason to refuse and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, this is a piece of cake for me, just call me when the time comes."
This time, I invited He Yuzhu to my home not only to further our friendship, but also to borrow his cooking skills.
Seeing that he understood the meaning of the words, Secretary Chen looked satisfied.
Now they were the only two people left in the room, so he lowered his voice and spoke slowly.
"Zhu Zi, I have been officially appointed to be a leader in a new factory in another province.
I will be taking up my new post after the New Year, so I can take some time off after I finish the handover.”
This matter had been discussed before the business trip, and now the dust has settled.
Being transferred to work at the grassroots level is a good opportunity for Secretary Chen.
As long as you achieve results in your job, your future will be bright.
Having followed Minister Fang for so many years, he has been able to mobilize more resources than usual, making it easier for him to achieve success.
As long as the senior leaders above do not fall, there is no possibility of burying the achievements.
"Congratulations! Brother Chen has embarked on a broad road with a bright future!"
Although He Yuzhu did not pursue progress in this area, he had learned a lot from Chief Chen over the past few years and understood the ins and outs of it.
Judging from the unconcealable joy on Secretary Chen’s face, he must have been assigned to a good place.
"Wherever you are, you should contribute to the development of the motherland. Don't talk about these things. Haha~
Besides, it’s a new place, and it’s quite a challenge for me, after all, I have no experience in this area.”
He Yuzhu didn't care about his polite words and was very curious about his new unit.
"Brother Chen, you have been following the Minister for so many years, this won't be difficult for you.
The wise are in office, and the capable are in charge. Since you are the leader in charge, why are you worried so much!
Don’t know where to go next year?”
