Rebirth at Seventy: Counterattack on Life

"Thank you, thank you." The young man thanked Zhou Jinxin.

Zhou Jinxin looked at his mouth that was red from the heat and shook his head while holding back laughter.

"Chang Duan, please try one too."

Secretary Xiao Wang presented a rice dumpling.

"No need, no need."

Duan Chang Song quickly shook his head.

He is scary. If he is tortured like that young man just now, will he still have the dignity of being a grown man?

"Old Song, don't be polite. This is all coming to your mouth. How about I feed you?"

Director Qiao saw the excitement and encouraged him to try.

"Hmm? Director Qiao, how about you give it a try?"

Duan Chang Song saw the fun expression on his face and directly dragged him into the water.

"Yes, yes, everyone has a try."

Secretary Wang worked like magic and took out several more rice dumplings and distributed them to the leaders one by one.

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of determination to maintain the dignity of their leadership, and kept shaking their heads, unable to eat.

Director Xiao Song was the only one who picked it up and ate it because he was hungry. I don’t know if it was because he was lucky or because Secretary Wang specially picked the snow-white glutinous rice dumplings, which were soft, glutinous and sweet.

After hearing the news, more and more workers came, and the two large pots of rice dumplings were all sold out in a short time.

"I already have the results here. In this rice dumpling making competition, one team won. This is a specially prepared prize for the winning team."

Zhou Jinxin smiled and admired the winning team, and took out the prize towels prepared in advance and awarded them to the worker representatives of the winning team.

"Master Wang, your pepper-filled rice dumplings are good, don't make them next time."

During the award presentation, someone was shouting at the grinning Comrade Lao Wang.

"Now let's move on to the last item, asking leaders to lead worker representatives to send holiday blessings to retired veteran cadres and employees in need."

As soon as Zhou Jinxin finished speaking, Secretary Wang came out with the office secretaries and twenty workers' representatives carrying several bags of rice dumplings.

"All leaders, let's take a group photo together first." Song Zhengyang motioned to the reporters to take a group photo with everyone.

Section Chief Song, several deputy section chiefs, and local leaders stood in the front. Secretary Wang and the worker representatives stood in the back carrying rice dumplings. Zhou Jinxin stood on the side of the crowd. She didn't want to take photos with them.

"Comrade, please go a little further and stand next to Director Song."

Who knew that the reporter comrade directly clicked on her location.

She didn't refuse and stood up directly.

Refusing at this point would be a waste of time.

"Click, a big group photo is finalized."

Secretary Xiao Wang and several other secretaries in the office took several Duanli leaders to send holiday greetings to retired cadres. Zhou Jinxin stayed in Duanli and gave the remaining rice dumplings to these with Director Xiao Song. To local leaders who come to participate in the event.

"Xiao Song, you are really doing a good job in this activity. You are really young people with smart minds."

A leader's secretary was taking the rice dumplings sent by Zhou Jinxin. The leader patted Song Zhengyang on the shoulder and said.

"You're welcome. I will need more support from you in the future."

Sometimes the work on the railway inevitably involves local affairs, Song Zhengyang said politely.

"Then I'll leave first. Remember we made an appointment. I'll call you when the time comes."

After seeing off all the leaders, Zhou Jinxin was about to say a few words to Secretary Xiao Qiao when the car to pick up Director Qiao arrived.

Secretary Xiao Qiao carried two large bags of rice dumplings, smiled and said a few words to Zhou Jinxin before quickly getting in the car. Her uncle glared at her again and left quickly.

"understood."

Zhou Jinxin looked at her aggrieved look and said with a smile.

"Thank you for your hard work, I'll wait for the report tomorrow.

By the way, if the photos come out, give me a call and I'll have someone pick them up. "

Song Zhengyang also stuffed rice dumplings into the two reporters and politely said a few words of thanks.

The two reporters nodded and smiled in agreement, then got on their bicycles and left.

They still have to go back and catch up on the manuscript. The hot news will appear in the newspaper tomorrow.

"It's finally over."

After seeing off the last leader, Zhou Jinxin breathed a long sigh of relief. This organizational activity was also quite tiring.

"Yeah, I see there are a lot of rice dumplings left. You can take some back too."

Director Xiao Song looked at the remaining rice dumplings and said to Zhou Jinxin.

Zhou Jinxin smiled and nodded.

“If it’s done long ago, there will definitely be leftovers.

I will send some to the leaders later, and I will save some for you.

The rest was divided among the secretaries who organized the event. They were all exhausted these days.

We must not forget the worker representatives who participated in the activities, otherwise no one will be willing to participate in activities in the future. "

Zhou Jinxin said naturally.

It was as if the two were not superiors and subordinates, but friends who had known each other for many years, and there was no need to avoid taboos.

"Well, then you can go back early after making arrangements. It's been a hard day today."

Song Zhengyang said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll go and arrange the rest of the things first." Zhou Jinxin said with a smile and returned to the cafeteria.

"This Comrade Xiao Zhou is really extraordinary. He is eloquent and has a strong pen. No wonder he is so rare."

An aunt working in the canteen looked at Zhou Jinxin and said.

"Today's female dolls are not ordinary. I heard that this Comrade Zhou even wielded a sledgehammer in the engineering team. It is not ordinary."

Another middle-aged woman who was helping to pack her things looked sideways at her and said secretly.

"Huh? Really, they can't catch up with the old Iron Girls team. They can do any dirty and tiring work, and they are not inferior to gay men at all."

"No, but he is capable and well-educated. If he gets a chance, he will become a cadre."

The two aunts were chewing their ears together. Zhou Jinxin had no idea that she was only thinking about the fragrant, soft and glutinous rice dumplings.

Together with Secretary Xiao Wang and Zhang Xiangdong, they distributed the rice dumplings into packages, and finally it was their turn.

Several people were very tired, and the last person carried a pocket of rice dumplings and went home happily.

Finally, the work was not in vain.

"Mom, Xiao Wu, I'm back."

Zhou Jinxin happily returned home carrying a bag full of rice dumplings. He saw Old Mrs. Yao struggling to support Old Zhou, trying to get him to sit in the yard and bask in the sun.

Xiao Wu also helped on the other side, but she was small and weak, so she couldn't hold her up at all.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Jinxin quickly stepped forward to help and took over Mr. Zhou.

She bent down and let Mr. Zhou lie on her back, then picked him up as soon as she got up.

"Huh~" Old Mrs. Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

On weekdays, it seems that the eldest daughter is quite relaxed supporting the old man, but today she herself was exhausted.

I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t worked much recently and my strength is not as strong as before.

"Why did you come back so early today?"

Old Mrs. Yao looked at the still bright sky and wondered why her daughter came back so early. She usually didn't come back until it got dark.
