Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 10 Getting to work

In the middle of the night, Cheng Tianyuan tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Maybe he didn't sleep well on the sofa, or he couldn't sleep soundly because of his thoughts.

The private room was very small, he moved his body and turned sideways, through the faint light projected from the window, he saw Xue Ling who was sleeping soundly.

The Keren'er in front of her looked like she had been exhausted all day, she didn't have the nobility and elegance of a fairy tale heroine, nor did she have the usual beauty and savagery, she was as docile as a soft and cute lamb, sleeping sweetly.

Cheng Tianyuan's eyes were deep, and his eyes fell on Sleeping Beauty, his heart seemed excited and uneasy.

Soon she would settle down and start a new life, and maybe tomorrow or the day after that she wouldn't need his vigil.

At that time, she will have her own life, and he will have his own busy life, the point of intersection... seems to be gone.

On the day of the wedding, she complained loudly as soon as she entered the bridal chamber, and kept implying that the two of them were not suitable and that they could not organize a family at all.

The Civil Affairs Bureau is just to the north of the county seat, and when she stabilizes, she will probably propose to herself...

Thinking wildly, sleepiness struck him, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

Early in the morning, Cheng Tianyuan washed up and went out to buy breakfast. Xue Ling didn't get enough sleep last night and was still lying in bed.

"The soy milk fritters here are delicious. The fritters taste bad when they are cold, so get up and eat." He put his things down and turned to wash his hands on the small balcony.

Xue Ling smelled the aroma of deep-fried dough sticks, gluttons popped out all at once, threw off the quilt, hurriedly threw off his coat, and ran to wash up.

Cheng Tianyuan wiped his hands, said in a deep voice, "I'm off to work, I'll come here to pick you up in the evening."

"Brother Yuan, let's eat together!" Xue Ling held the hot fried dough sticks, feeling warm in his hands.

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head, and replied: "I only bought one for you, and I will go back to the supply and marketing cooperative to eat."

He has always lived frugally. One bag of soybean milk and two fried dough sticks can buy five steamed buns, which is a bit expensive for him, and he is not full enough.

His breakfast is usually porridge with two steamed buns, which is affordable and more hungry.

"Wait!" Xue Ling held the soya-bean milk bag, stuffed it into his hand, and said with a smile, "It's a bit cold in the morning, so drink something warm first. One bag is enough for me."

Cheng Tianyuan looked at her smile as bright as the sun outside the window, his eyes flickered slightly and he nodded, leaned down and took a few sips.

She smiled and asked, "It's pretty sweet, isn't it?"

The corner of Cheng Tianyuan's mouth raised, and he said in a low voice, "It's quite sweet."

When he went downstairs, his stomach was slightly warm, and the sweet taste of soy milk was still in his throat. Such a morning feeling - he couldn't help but recall his childhood at the mouth of the big alley.

At that time, the family was not well-off, but it was not as tight as it was later.

Mother always grinds some soy milk for breakfast and makes a basket of steamed stuffed buns. The whole family sits around a small table, eating and drinking happily.

He unconsciously twitched the corner of his mouth, smiled lightly, and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative with big strides, his steps brisk.

After Xue Ling happily enjoyed breakfast, she simply changed her clothes and went out to the Rongcheng newspaper office.

Chunfeng was proud of his horseshoe disease, and he arrived at the door of the newspaper office without knowing it.

At this time, the newspaper office has just started to work, and there are people coming and going.

A man was typing on an old typewriter. When he looked up and saw her looking for someone, he grinned, "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"

Xue Ling generously reported his name, explained the purpose of his visit, and politely asked where Director Liu's office was.

"Oh! It's you!" The young man smiled enthusiastically: "The director mentioned you to us during the lunch break yesterday, saying that you graduated from the foreign language institute in the imperial capital!"

His voice was a little loud, causing others to look over.Xue Ling nodded to them generously and was very polite.

The man patted his chest and said heartily: "My name is Liu Xing, the star of Xing Xing. I am in charge of typesetting. New colleague, please give me advice in the future."

Xue Ling is an authentic northerner, with a very straightforward temper, he laughed.

"I'm not your official colleague yet. I'm here to talk to Director Liu about my appointment today. It's not confirmed yet!"

Liu Xing saw that she was not only pretty, but also generous and decent, and said courteously: "The director is looking forward to you, a talented woman! The first room over there is Director Liu's office."

Xue Ling thanked him, turned around and walked over, and knocked lightly on the door.

"Come in!" Director Liu was working with his head down.

"Director Liu, hello!"

"Oh, Xiao Xue! Come on, please sit down!" Director Liu smoothed his glasses, put down the pen in his hand, and waved warmly and politely for Xue Ling to sit down.

Xue Ling was secretly delighted, and Director Liu did not hide at all how much he valued and expected her.

When doing things here, the leader can think highly of himself, that is the best thing.

"Director Liu, after thinking about it, I think the position of English editor is quite suitable for my major."

After listening to Director Liu, he laughed.

"Okay! Xiaoxue! The newspaper office is in need of talents like you! We will be colleagues from now on, and we will work hard in the future. Just wait a moment, I will ask someone to go through the entry procedures for you immediately!"

College students like Xue Ling, who are rare foreign language majors, are popular everywhere in the 80s.Coupled with Xue Ling's cheerful and generous temperament, Director Liu was even more overjoyed.

The entry process went very smoothly. Director Liu introduced her to other colleagues, and Wang Qing, who was in charge of the English department before, quickly handed over.

Wang Qing is about 23 or [-] years old, with a handsome appearance and a gentle temperament. He wears two braids and a nylon dress.
When she heard that Xue Ling was coming to take over the English column, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She only knew a few simple English words, so she couldn't do the job at all, but the newspaper didn't respond to someone who could take over, so Director Liu asked her to take the lead.

She lost a lot of weight almost every session, and it was really unbearable.

"Sister Xue, I can finally throw this hot potato to you, a professional."

Xue Ling chuckled and said, "I still need to ask you to teach me a lot!"

Liu Xing on the side interjected, "Wang Qing is the most famous writer in Ronghua County. Don't look at her young, she has already published a collection of essays and two novels!"

"Wow!" Xue Ling clasped his fists and said, "So it's Writer Wang! Disrespect and disrespect!"

Wang Qing covered his mouth and laughed straight, shyly said: "Writing blindly...not a serious writer. From now on, we will all be colleagues, and I dare not be a teacher. It is time to learn from each other. When you are free, I will ask you to be mine. English teacher."

"Hey! I have to learn too!" Liu Xing echoed with a smile.

A few middle-aged colleagues on the other side shook their heads and smiled wryly, saying: "When I see English, I get a headache. We are old and can't learn anymore."

The new colleagues are all literati, and the working atmosphere is relaxed and harmonious. Ben Xue Ling, who grew up in the imperial capital, is generous and cheerful, and quickly integrated into the new working environment.

Her new desk is at the corner, with Liu Xing opposite and Wang Qing next door.

Director Liu said that the three of them were the youngest, and arranged for them to sit together.

"Our newspaper currently has twelve staff members, two guards, the chief and deputy directors, and you know all the other colleagues—by the way, the deputy director has gone on a business trip and will come back in a few days. I will introduce you then. "
