Age: Passionate youth, starting from graduation assignment

Chapter 176 Step by step, break through Qiu Yuechan’s defense line
When he walked near the conference room, Xu Jichang saw Qiu Yuechan's back.

I saw that she was wearing a jacket, shivering in the cold morning wind, looking very pitiful.

Xu Jichang walked behind her and saw some dew on the tip of her hair, obviously she had been waiting for a long time.

"Morning."

Xu Jichang said to Qiu Yuechan, "I kept you waiting."

Qiu Yuechan hurriedly turned around, barely showing a smile on her frozen face: "Good morning, Section Chief Xu, I've only been here a while ago."

"There is news about your work."

Xu Jichang stared into her eyes and said.

"Ah? Really, what's the explanation?"

Qiu Yuechan was overjoyed and said.

"Let's go in and talk."

While talking with her, Xu Jichang took out the key, opened the door of the meeting room, and walked in with Qiu Yuechan one after the other.

After closing the door and sitting at the reception table, Xu Jichang poured himself a glass of water, and then gave it to Qiu Yuechan.

Qiu Yuechan quickly grabbed the kettle: "No, the leader doesn't need it. I'll pour it myself."

Xu Jichang didn't push her too much, and handed the kettle directly to her.

"Goooooooooooo..."

Qiu Yuechan poured herself a glass of water, put the thermos bottle on and covered it, while holding the glass to warm her hands, she looked at Xu Jichang with anxious and expectant eyes: "Leader, you just said about work..."

"Oh, that's right. Now it's almost time for the factory to recruit workers from the rural communes. You don't have a rural household registration. We are going to take this opportunity to recruit you."

"And you, you don't have to do anything, just go back to your hometown and wait. Then the cadres of the production team will find you, and you can go through the recruitment process as required."

"As for the specific position, I don't know yet. If you have special requirements, you can mention them to me, and I will help you to report them upwards."

After Xu Jichang finished speaking, he looked at Qiu Yuechan, and caught the expression of surprise from her beautiful face.

"Is it that simple? Thank you for your leadership, thank you so much..."

"me……"

Qiu Yuechan was so excited that she couldn't even speak, her beautiful eyes were so bright that she was about to cry.

"Don't worry, speak slowly if you have something to say."

"Hmm... this is the leader, I... I don't have any requirements for the position. Just give me a job."

When Qiu Yuechan said this, tears flowed down unconsciously, "As long as I... can stay in the city and eat commercial food, I can do any job..."

Qiu Yuechan wasn't being polite, she really didn't dare to make a request, because she was afraid that once the request was made, the factory would not be able to meet it, which would lead to a catastrophe in the end.

Xu Ji often saw her expressing her position like this, so he stood up: "Okay, since you didn't ask, then everything will be assigned to the factory."

"You stay at home during this time, don't come to the factory to make trouble like before."

"I promise I won't do anything like that."

Qiu Yuechan hastily promised.

Xu Jichang looked at her as a weak woman, and a thought-provoking expression flashed in her eyes.

He had dealt with Qiu Yuechan twice, and he always felt that the other party didn't seem like the kind of woman who caused trouble. Why did he come to the factory several times before to make trouble...

With this question in mind, he raised a question: "Yuechan, I'll settle the matter for you, and you have to answer me honestly."

"Who asked you to come to the factory to make trouble before?"

Qiu Yuechan was so asked that she lowered her head, not daring to make a sound.

Xu Jichang realized that he still needed to dispel her doubts,
"Don't worry, I'll just ask, I don't mean to pursue responsibility."

"Uh... my mother-in-law asked me to make trouble..."

"Actually, I don't want to come here, but as long as I don't listen to my mother-in-law, she will beat me. I was also forced to have no choice..."

Qiu Yuechan lowered her head while talking, with a sad and lingering fear expression on her face.

Sure enough, there is an evil mother-in-law at home.

After hearing this, Xu Jichang thought to himself, he didn't comment on the matter, but just comforted Qiu Yuechan,
"Things are in the past, try to move forward."

"At least when you have a job in the future, your mother-in-law won't beat you."

Qiu Yuechan didn't say anything, just shook her head with tears in her eyes.

Xu Jichang didn't know what to say when he saw her look.

Indeed, it is difficult to stop the mother-in-law's abuse of her daughter-in-law like this.Even if Qiu Yuechan finds a job, the situation in the future may not be much better.

Thinking of this, Xu Jichang had infinite sympathy for her, and patted her on the shoulder before approaching: "You can apply to the factory for a dormitory."

"If you can't provoke it, at least you can hide it."

Qiu Yuechan felt the masculine aura in front of her, her whole body stiffened, and her expression froze.

Ever since she became a widow, her mother-in-law has strictly guarded against her, lest she have any relationship with other men.

Having such a close contact with Xu Jichang today made her feel her heart twitch suddenly, and she felt a strange feeling in her heart.

"Thank you, Chief Xu."

Qiu Yuechan instinctively stepped back, sipped her cherry and said, "If the recruitment is really successful, I will apply for a dormitory."

"Well, let's go, there's nothing else to do today."

Xu Jichang said lightly, and walked towards the closed door of the meeting room first.

This little widow is so interesting, she was coaxed like this after being patted on the shoulder, she looks like a chaste and strong woman.

Not bad, I like it.

Xu Jichang thought in his heart.

So... leaving?
Qiu Yuechan looked at his back with a slightly dazed expression.

She thought that after Xu Jichang patted her on the shoulder, she would make further moves.

Didn't expect him to leave right away.

Are you thinking too much?Maybe he patted himself on the shoulder just to comfort him?

Thinking of this moment, Qiu Yuechan felt a little guilty, wondering whether she had wrongly blamed Xu Jichang just now, and also overreacted.

"Wait... Chief Xu..."

With complicated emotions intertwined, Qiu Yuechan blurted out.

"What's the matter?"

Xu Jichang had already arrived at the door, stopped when he heard her voice, and turned around.

Qiu Yuechan's heart was pounding, and she looked at him with some embarrassment: "You have helped me so much, I want to thank you very much..."

"Where is your home, I want to pick a convenient time to visit you."

"Oh, this one. My home is at No. 200 Renmin West Road in the county seat. Let's say thank you after you get your salary."

Xu Jichang smiled slightly, turned around neatly, and walked out of the conference room, leaving Qiu Yuechan standing silently in the conference room.

This time, she really didn't know what was wrong.

Judging from Xu Jichang's behavior, he didn't seem to have any interest in him.

However, his smile just now seemed to have some meaning.

If that's the case... what should I do?

The more Qiu Yuechan thought about it, it was also nerve-wracking, and finally she sighed and walked out of the conference room.

……

Half a month later, except for the snow in the deep mountains and old forests, the snow in all parts of the county has basically melted.

At this time, Dongfang Chemical Fertilizer Factory's recruitment for rural communes and teams officially started.

Accompanied by the cadres of the corresponding communes, the cadres of each department went deep into the villages and began to go through the recruitment review procedures like the previous educated youth recruitment.

Checking resumes, talking in person, bringing people back to the factory...

It took less than a week in total, and the review procedures for all the recruiters were completed, and the final recruitment list was submitted to the factory.

When Xu Jichang went to work in the organization department of the factory, he saw Qiu Yuechan's name on the list. He was a warehouse assistant in the logistics department and a temporary worker.

This job is not too tiring, and it is located in the logistics department with better benefits. Even if Qiu Yuechan is a temporary worker, she will be able to get some credit at that time.

Huh... I have done a good deed.

From now on, this beautiful widow can be regarded as having hope in life.

Xu Jichang thought to himself when he returned to the office from the factory organization department.

……

A few days later, in the evening, Xu Jichang returned home by bicycle, just after turning a corner, he saw Qiu Yuechan standing at the door of his house with a bag of things in his hand, with a waiting attitude.

When the sound of Xu Jichang riding a bicycle came, Qiu Yuechan turned her face and showed a joyful expression: "Mr. Xu, you are home. Isn't it the salary of the employee today, I think..."

"Go, go into the house and talk."

Xu Jichang stopped the bicycle in front of her, took out the key from his trouser pocket and said.

"Squeak..."

The key was inserted into the keyhole, and after a few twists, the courtyard door was opened.

Qiu Yuechan followed Xu Jichang into the yard, her heart skipped a beat: his house is really big!
Inviting Qiu Yuechan into the room to sit down, Xu Jichang poured a glass of water for her and himself: "It's just the first day of work, are you used to it?"

"It's quite adaptable, and everyone is very kind."

Qiu Yuechan supported the teacup with both hands and said, "And the salary in our factory is really high. I heard they said it is two yuan higher than other factories in the county."

"No, it's a provincial enterprise."

Hearing what she said, Xu Jichang said with a proud look on his face.

"Provincial enterprise, what do you mean by that?"

Qiu Yuechan asked curiously.

Xu Jichang then explained the definition of a provincial enterprise to her, and after hearing this, Qiu Yuechan suddenly realized: "So it's like this... Section Chief Xu, you really know a lot."

"What's the matter?"

Xu Jichang waved his hand and said, "Since I'm working, I'll watch and learn more later, and strive to become a regular as soon as possible."

"The wages will be higher then."

"Yeah, I will definitely work hard and live up to your kindness to me."

Qiu Yuechan promised seriously.

"Jichang, what do you want to eat tonight?"

At this moment, the door opened again from the yard, followed by Lan Qimei's voice.

Qiu Yuechan glanced into the yard, then returned to Xu Jichang: "Mr. Xu, is this your wife?"

"No, it's a female employee who lives in my house."

Xu Jichang said easily and naturally, and then answered Lan Qimei loudly, "Do as usual, and add mutton soup."

"We have guests at home today."

Qiu Yuechan didn't believe his answer.

She always felt that the tone of the inquiry just now was a bit too intimate, not like the tone that should be expected between ordinary tenants and landlords.

Of course, Qiu Yuechan was skeptical in her heart, but she still didn't reveal anything on the surface, she just rejected Xu Jichang's hospitality: "Mr. Xu, I'd better go home for dinner, I..."

"How can I do that? I'm here, how can I leave without having a meal?"

Xu Jichang stopped it.

Qiu Yuechan had no choice but to stop insisting, but she was extremely nervous.

If I don't go home for dinner at night, will my mother-in-law get suspicious...

Xu Jichang saw her uneasiness: "Didn't you say you were afraid of being beaten by your mother-in-law? Have you applied for a dormitory?"

"Applied, but not yet approved."

Qiu Yuechan said anxiously, "I'm worried that even if I live in the dormitory in the future, my mother-in-law will go and make trouble."

"It will be really embarrassing then."

Xu Jichang looked indifferent: "What are you afraid of, the dormitory is a public place, and it is guarded by guards."

"Whoever dares to make trouble, clean it up before throwing it out."

"Is it like this...that's pretty good."

After being comforted by Xu Jichang, Qiu Yuechan breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, she is also a real person, and she doesn't want to be bullied and tortured by her mother-in-law all day long.

And she has no children to worry about now, if she really has a chance to escape from that house, it would be great for her.

"Well, it's pretty good. And you don't have to be so afraid of your mother-in-law."

Xu Jichang continued, "You have a job now, and the entire family's income depends on you. What do you have to be afraid of?"

"If you really make you anxious, you don't care about her. She will have no source of income at that time, so she can only return to the team obediently."

what?
Qiu Yuechan was taken aback by Xu Jichang's words.

She has a gentle and kind nature, and has always been submissive to her mother-in-law.

What Xu Jichang said today was something she had never thought about, nor dared to think about.

"But she is my mother-in-law after all, I usually have to call her mother."

"If you do this, wouldn't it..."

Qiu Yuechan muttered, her beautiful eyes were filled with bewilderment.

On the one hand, under the shackles of traditional concepts, she felt that since she was married, she should listen to her mother-in-law.

No matter what my mother-in-law said or did, I should endure it and not violate it.

On the other hand, Xu Jichang has helped her a lot, subconsciously she has regarded Xu Jichang as her own, and she is a very capable one of her own.

She attached great importance to Xu Jichang's opinion.

With the two thoughts intertwined, she felt a little overwhelmed.

And Xu Jichang saw the loosening of her inner defense, so he seized the opportunity to strike while the iron was hot,
"Don't think that your patience will bring good results."

"Think about it carefully, has your mother-in-law's behavior become more and more excessive since I married you?"

"Do you think there will be results if you endure it?"

Xu Jichang was fascinated by Qiu Yuechan's beauty, and he knew that if he didn't pull Qiu Yuechan out of her mother-in-law's control, it would be impossible for him to get her.

So there is such a piece of persuasion.

This……

Xu Jichang's words hit Qiu Yuechan's heart at once.

As Xu Jichang said just now, his mother-in-law is indeed getting more and more excessive, and the number of times of beating and scolding is becoming more and more frequent.

Should I...

and many more!

Thinking of this, Qiu Yuechan hurriedly stopped her thoughts, because she still had the last line of defense in her heart.
