Siheyuan: Cooking journey

She knocked gently on the door and waited respectfully for a response.

She remembered this honorific title when she accidentally heard someone call her that.

I feel that this title is both appropriate and shows respect. If you call her Manager Yu directly, it seems informal enough. If you call her Deputy General Manager, it will make people realize that she is in a deputy position. This kind of subtlety must be treated with special care in the workplace.

"come in."

Yu Li's voice came from inside the house.

After taking a deep breath, You Fengxia pushed the door open and entered.

Yu Li was seen sitting in front of a spacious and elegant desk, carefully reviewing documents.

You Fengxia said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Yu, I'm here to bring you tea and today's newspaper!"

After looking up at her, Yu Li quickly got back to work.

"Thanks a lot."

After a brief pause, he continued, "You don't need to prepare newspapers anymore. You can ask the finance department to reimburse you for the money you spent at the newsstand during this period, and by the way, ask them to help order some newspapers for use by various departments in the factory."

"Understood, I'll do it!"

Although she learned that she would no longer need to buy newspapers, there was no disappointment in You Fengxia's eyes. Instead, she looked more positive and optimistic.

Go to the Finance Department to handle related matters. This is also one of the tasks directly assigned by the vice president!

As long as you are diligent and proactive, and often have the opportunity to receive instructions and complete tasks, you will definitely leave a deep impression in their eyes over time and have a chance to secure the position.

The atmosphere inside is very quiet and peaceful at this moment.

Seeing that Yu Li was still concentrating,

You Fengxia carefully replaced the thermos of water with a new one and left quietly without disturbing him for too long.

The Finance Office is located on the third floor.

You Fengxia paid great attention to etiquette and communication. She conveyed the boss's wife's opinion there and returned to the radio station with a fresh cup of water after finishing her business. "Why did it take so long this time?"

Colleague Yu Haitang cast a puzzled look and asked, but this did not mean that she was really concerned about the matter. She was just purely curious.

"I just went downstairs to the testing center and wandered around."

You Fengxia lowered her head slightly and explained with a somewhat shy expression.

"Oh…"

The other party nodded and said nothing more, but some subtle thoughts inevitably arose in his mind.

The main responsibility of the laboratory is to sample and test various instant noodle products to ensure that their quality meets the standards;

Before and after each new product is launched, several samples must be randomly selected for detailed analysis.

Simply put, there is no shortage of convenience foods to try in that place.

Things like this that take advantage of others,

Naturally, it is not suitable for someone with Haitang's family background to do this, otherwise it will probably cause a lot of criticism from the outside world.

You have to know that your sister is the second in command, and it is really outrageous that she has to spend so much time and effort on some snacks, right?

actually not.

Fortunately, He Yuzhu brought a lot of instant noodles the night before and shared some with his sister.

This incident made her feel that He Yuzhu finally began to care about her.

Because of this, Yu Haitang was very happy and excited the whole night.

"Sister Haitang, let me add some water for you..."

You Fengxia walked over enthusiastically and not only added some water for Yu Haitang, but also refilled her own cup.

I looked at the time and it was almost time to get off work.

You Fengxia turned off the radio, and the day's work ended like this.

She rummaged through her bag.

Take out a ball of wool and start knitting a scarf.

You Fengxia chose several colored yarns and went to several stores before she found the style she liked.

The broadcasting room became quiet.

Yu Haitang was flipping through the pages of a book leisurely.

You Fengxia was concentrating on knitting the scarf in her hands.

As time goes by,

You Fengxia stopped what she was doing, rubbed her aching neck, and glanced at Wang Hailiang beside her.

In my heart, I looked down on her. I thought she looked average but was always so confident, like a proud peacock.

I thought if I had such a background,

At least I can be the leader of a small department.

Instead of being mediocre like Yu Haitang.

It is precisely because there is no such backer,

So You Fengxia worked harder to prove herself.

She clearly realized that she could only rely on herself to fight for her future.

Although my father is a street director,

But there are too many positions like this in the capital.

It still has some say in the local area, but it is useless outside this small circle.

Moreover, the situation is different now. No matter how powerful the parents are, it is difficult for them to arrange employment for their children.

Although You Fengxia wanted to stay and work in the street,

But the reality does not allow it.

Fortunately, things took a turn for the better and I finally got the opportunity to work in an instant noodle factory.

She cherishes this job very much.

After learning about Yu Li's experience of starting as an ordinary worker and gradually growing into a vice president,

She was deeply inspired and determined to work harder, hoping to become Yu Li's personal assistant.

Once you take the position of assistant,

Although it is just an ordinary clerk role,

But in fact, the influence is huge.

If we can really reach that position,

Everyone in the family will look at you differently.

Thinking of this,

You Fengxia is full of energy and her knitting movements have become more fluent.

This carefully knitted scarf was not intended for He Yuzhu or Yu Li.

It was a gift prepared to please He Sisi, He Yuzhu's daughter.

It is particularly important to leave a good impression on the two elders by taking good care of Sisi.

In the spacious office,

There is also a special rest area for employees.

If it weren't for the fact that living in the factory area was not appropriate,

This place can be used as a home.

In the rest area,

He Yuzhu hugged Lou Xiaoe, rubbing her hair with his chin, and gently suggested: "Don't stay in the hotel tonight. How about moving to the courtyard and staying for a few days?"

"Humph……"

Hearing this, Lou Xiao'e turned over, rested her head on his chest, and replied coquettishly: "No, no, I won't create a chance for you."

"Oh, what are you thinking about?"

He Yuzhu explained, "I'm just worried that Sisi will be too lonely. If she moves to the yard, she can play with Nianqiu and the others."

As he spoke, he began to complain.

"It's because someone is unwilling to make an effort that I can't even fulfill my wish of giving my precious daughter a younger sibling."

After saying this, a shy expression immediately appeared on Lou Xiao'e's face and she hid back in her lover's arms.

This scene ignited a passion in He Yuzhu's heart...

For a long time...

Looking at the watch, lunch time has already passed for a while.

He Yuzhu packed his things, teased Lou Xiaoe for a while, and then walked out of the lounge.

In the office, Sisi was sitting at the desk with a stern face, reading a book attentively.

He Yuzhu walked over, hugged her gently and asked, "Sisi, do you want to eat something? Daddy will cook for you."

Sisi frowned, pushed him away with a bit of disgust, thought for a while and said, "I want to eat candied sweet potato."

"Candied sweet potato?"

He Yuzhu was stunned, and couldn't help but hug her tightly, and asked softly: "Why do you suddenly want to eat this?"

"Mom said that eating candied sweet potatoes is the best in weather like this!"

Looking at his daughter's cold face, He Yuzhu touched her head and said gently, "Okay, Dad will do it right away."

After leaving the office,

He Yuzhu walked around the production workshop and finally came to the cafeteria. In addition to making a few home-cooked dishes, he also prepared a hearty serving of candied sweet potato for Sisi.

He knew that this was not only Sisi's favorite, but also Lou Xiao'e's favorite, so he made more.

After packing the food, I returned to the office.

The moment Sisi saw the sweet potato, her eyes lit up and she immediately took it away and hid it.

Seeing this, Lou Xiao'e unhappily snatched the sweet potato, unwilling to let go, and said jokingly: "You know what? The sweet potato with sugar made by my father is super delicious! If you call me a good mother and call your father a big fool, I will give you some..."

The scene before him made He Yuzhu feel both familiar and warm, and his heart could not calm down for a long time.

in the afternoon,

Taking advantage of some free time, He Yuzhu suggested practicing driving with Yu Li.

Despite being taught several times, Yu Li still couldn't figure out how to master right-side driving.

With no other options, He Yuzhu had to tell her everything he knew without reservation.

But after some effort,

Yu Li still couldn't learn it and felt very embarrassed. She hid in He Yuzhu's arms with a red face and didn't want to look up.

The car fell into silence for a while.

After a long while, Yu Li broke the silence by saying, "Do you still remember that You Fengxia?"

"Why did you think of mentioning her?"

He Yuzhu gently stroked her long hair as he spoke.

"It turned out that he was a newcomer introduced by the street director. Due to his low education level, he was currently assigned to work in the broadcasting room."

"I'm thinking of letting her become my assistant. What do you think?"

Yu Li added: "I found that she is thoughtful and efficient. She also takes the initiative to bring tea and newspapers to the office every morning. Isn't that very considerate?"

After hearing these words, He Yuzhu thought for a moment before answering: "Although these all reflect her intelligence and ability, I think the most important things for a good assistant are reliability and character; besides, we have only known each other for a short time..."

“I originally planned to invite Liu Lan to take this position, but she preferred to continue working in the restaurant, so I didn’t force her.

As for the candidate, You Fengxia can be considered as one of the alternatives, and I will pay more attention to finding a suitable one."

Yu Li nodded in agreement.

Indeed, the character of the people you work with is very important.

If it is not trustworthy, it may cause greater trouble.

As for You Fengxia, it is indeed hasty to draw conclusions now.

suddenly,

"What about your sister Yu Haitang?"

After learning that Liu Lan would not come, He Yuzhu seriously considered the issue of backup personnel, but unfortunately there was no ideal choice.

However, after spending these few days together, I found that maybe asking Haitang to come and help might be a good choice.
