Life is more than just living

In the first two weeks of working, Chen Xu saw how busy the Political Department was, often with urgent tasks. The Political Department has three departments: Personnel and Education Department; Organization Department and Publicity Department. Because some of the staff in these departments were transferred to other departments to help, some were on maternity leave, and some were on long-term sick leave, Li Chang had no choice but to scratch his eyebrows and beard.

Chen Xu feels that this department is too training. The tasks that have just been assigned must be completed in the near future, and some even require submission on the same day. All kinds of study and promotion materials, writing reports and forms, personnel assessments, and even salary adjustments for staff are also the responsibility of the Political Department. Chen Xu is busy every day, because she works hard and does not cheat, so Li Chang prefers to leave many tasks to her.

Whenever Li Chang showed approval to Chen Xu, Gao Jiaqi would get angry. Not only would she avoid working overtime, she would sometimes make sarcastic comments and would always say next to her: "Well, I didn't make any money anyway." With so much money, I don’t have to worry so much. Of course I, a temporary worker with a cabbage price, don’t need to worry about selling white powder.” Chen Xu was not angry or annoyed, she remembered Li Chang’s words Words: Work is not for others to do.

Since the work of the Political Department is complex, Chen Xu will write down the tasks assigned by the leader in his notebook, the time required to complete the submission, and then decide what to do first and what to do based on the priority of the matter. Since he had to adjust his salary recently, write research materials, and prepare for inspections, Chen Xu has been very busy. Even Aunt Liu in the cafeteria couldn't stand it anymore. One day, Chen Xu was busy working and forgot the time, so he went to eat. relatively late. When Chen Xu finished eating, she was the only one left. Aunt Liu said to her quietly: "Silly girl, take your time with your work and don't tire yourself out. If you can whip a fast cow, why don't you do it?" Don’t you know? The more capable you are, the more jobs you can do, all the work will be yours.” After saying that, he gave Chen Xu a box of milk, and Chen Xu said sincerely: “Thank you, Aunt Liu!”

Because Liu Jingsheng knew that Chen Xu lived in the unit, he felt a little relieved. Chen Xu told him that he was busy with work recently, so the two of them did not contact each other every day. On this day, Chen Xu finally got off work normally. She returned to the dormitory after dinner, washed up quickly, and then sat on the bed to prepare to chat with Han Yidao and Liu Jingsheng. She sent a message to Han Yidao, but Han Yidao did not reply. She guessed that Han Yidao must still be in the new house. So she sent another message to Liu Jingsheng and said: Brother, I got off work early today, what are you doing? Liu Jingsheng immediately sent a video invitation. After Chen Xu connected, Liu Jingsheng saw her sitting on the bed and asked her, "You ran to bed so early. Didn't you go out for a walk?" Chen Xu said that he had been too tired these two days and finally got off work early today. , prepare to go to bed early in a while, and prepare to go to bed after chatting. Liu Jingsheng looked at the bright sky outside and said, "Go to bed so early?" Chen Xu nodded, "Brother, you don't even know that I worked overtime until two o'clock this morning. Fortunately, I went to Beicheng to visit Teacher Lin's grave a few weeks ago. Otherwise, we really wouldn’t have time now.”

Liu Jingsheng asked: "Are you going to visit your teacher's grave alone?" Chen Xu told Liu Jingsheng what happened that day in detail. Unexpectedly, after she said it, Liu Jingsheng was very angry and lost his temper, "You are such an old girl, why don't you make people worry? You are too courageous, why don't you have any awareness of safety precautions? A girl is alone If you go to a place like that alone, let’s not talk about whether it’s scary or scary. Let me ask you, why would you go to a sparsely populated place like that alone? What should you do if you encounter danger? "

Chen Xu didn't expect Liu Jingsheng's reaction to be like this, so he quickly said: "Brother, I didn't expect that the driver would regret it again. I made an agreement with her at that time and asked her to wait for me outside, but she arrived at the foot of the mountain. I didn’t go up. Who knew this would happen? The price I negotiated at that time was also the price for her to wait for me to take the round trip. Unexpectedly, she regretted it when she got to the bottom of the mountain. It was her dishonesty. So what can I do? We are already there. , I can’t come back with the sacrifice again, can I?”

Liu Jing said angrily: "Don't be so quibbling. Don't let this happen next time. Don't you know what you look like? You are very attractive. Don't say you are so beautiful. Even an ordinary girl in the wild will be in danger if she meets someone with bad intentions." Chen Xu originally treated this matter as a normal topic, but seeing Liu Jingsheng's worried and frightened look, she She was very touched, so she quickly reviewed herself and said: "Brother, I was wrong. I won't do it next time. Next time..." Chen Xu said half of the sentence and couldn't go on. Who can she find to go with her next time? , there is no one to accompany him at all.

Liu Jingsheng paused for a few seconds, calmed down his mood, and said, "Let's do it. If you really want to go next time, call me in advance and I can drive with you." Chen Xu scratched his head, and Liu Jingsheng drove there. It takes more than three hours to get here by highway. She lowered her head and thought for a while, "Brother, let's talk about this matter later, but I can assure you that I will definitely pay attention to safety in the future." Liu Jingshang breathed out and said, "You said it yourself, remember what you said If so, girls must learn to protect themselves and no longer be bullied."

Chen Xu nodded repeatedly and said: "Brother, I remember it. I will definitely not do it next time. Brother, don't be angry." Listening to Chen Xu calling brother repeatedly, Liu Jingsheng's expression softened slightly. He looked at Chen Xu's face carefully and asked, "Have you not eaten well recently?" Why do you look so thin? Chen Xu touched his face, and it seemed to be true, so he had to say: "It's probably because I often work overtime and stay up late recently!" Liu Jingsheng sighed softly, "Is this the life you want?" Chen Xu smiled, "That day I was After my salary was approved, I felt much better and didn’t feel tired anymore! From now on, my salary will be credited to my card on time every month. I feel so happy thinking about this.”

Liu Jingsheng looked at Chen Xu's smiling face and sighed secretly, silly girl, your salary is only a few thousand yuan, are you so happy? But he understood Chen Xu's mood and did not spoil the scenery. "Just be happy. It's easy for you to make money. You can buy whatever you want when the time comes." Chen Xu shook his head and said, "Brother, I have nothing to buy. I only have three meals a day." It's all settled at work, and I don't have to spend money on food or accommodation. I want to save all my money. Liu Jinsheng shook his head, "What do you, a girl, do to save so much money?" Isn’t the money earned meant spent? Chen Xu said a little embarrassedly: "Then I have to save for the dowry." Liu Jingsheng smiled helplessly: "You are my sister, I will prepare a dowry for you." Just use your salary as pocket money. "

Chen Xu looked at Liu Jingsheng seriously, "Brother, you don't know how to live. How can you call several thousand dollars pocket money? Anyway, I don't care, I want to save money, I want to become a little rich woman." Liu Jingsheng listened. Chen Xu couldn't help but laugh when he said that he wanted to be a little rich woman. Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Jingsheng said: "Finally you don't have to work overtime anymore, go to bed early!" After saying goodbye, Chen Xu lay on the bed and looked at Han Yidao who hadn't responded to the message yet. What was he doing? The replies to messages these past few days have been very slow. With this question, Chen Xu fell into sleep.
