Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 186 Female Colleagues in the Office
After some small talk, Xu Qing learned that Tian Zhongqing and Qian Bing were both assigned to the factory directly after graduating from technical secondary schools.

As for the three people who haven't come yet, it's the same as the two of them.

All told, among the six people in the office, only Xu Qing was promoted through the factory.

However, Xu Qing has not finished high school. If he had finished high school, his salary and benefits would be higher than them.

However, due to sudden changes at home, he had to drop out of school.

But now, Xu Qing has been promoted to cadre status by virtue of his own abilities.

There is nothing bad about the results.

Although the process was tortuous and complicated, it was impossible.

When the bell was about to ring for work, the other three also walked into the office one after another.

One is named Wu Yuemei, and the other two are named Chen Guodong and Wei Shengli.

Because of the news about Xu Qing in the newspapers, most people in the factory knew about him.

Wu Yuemei was the only woman in the office, the same age as Xu Qing and others.Wearing two braids and wearing a blue dress, she is almost indistinguishable from other girls in the factory.

When Wu Yuemei saw Xu Qing, a new colleague, arriving, a smile appeared on her fair and playful face, and she reached out her hand and said:

"Comrade Xu Qing, welcome."

Xu Qing stretched out his hand and shook it, then turned around and shook hands with Wei Shengli and Chen Guodong respectively.

Xu Qing had met them before. They all worked in the same factory. They had not met each other before, but it was not that they had never met before.

In addition, they were all young people with almost the same age, so Xu Qing quickly became friends with them.

On the other hand, their deputy director, Zhao Yanquan, is only 45 years old, but he likes to put his hands behind his back all day long. He occasionally comes to hang out, but most of the time, he sits in his own office.

Zhao Yanquan is considered an old comrade in the factory. He has been working as deputy director for many years, but has never been promoted.

I don’t know if it’s because I don’t have enough ability, or because I didn’t get the opportunity.

Xu Qing learned from the chat with Qian Bing that his immediate boss, apart from being nagging, was very kind to others and rarely criticized people. Even if he did something wrong, as long as it was not a big mistake, he would not reprimand him.

Xu Qing sat at his desk, thinking of his contact with Deputy Director Zhao during last week's report, which confirmed Qian Bing's statement.

There are six people in the office, each responsible for a department workshop in the factory.

Xu Qing is in the fitter workshop, Wu Yuemei is in the crane workshop where there are many female workers, and Qian Bing is in the welding workshop.
Not long after going to work, Xu Qing and everyone else left the office and went to the department workshop they were responsible for.

Xu Qing went to the fitter workshop, from the first workshop to the tenth workshop, and worked with the workshop director one by one.

On the first day of work today, Xu Qing was very busy. He spent the whole morning in various workshops, communicating with the workshop directors about work matters and exchanging pleasantries.

After all the busy work, it was already past eleven o'clock when Xu Qing returned to the office.

At this time, four of the other five people in the office came back earlier than him.

Only Wu Yuemei returned with a tired face when she was about to leave work at noon.

In the workshop of the department she is responsible for, there are too many female workers and there are many things to do.

Either this female worker had a conflict with that female worker, or she complained about trivial matters at work.

The workshop director couldn't mediate, so he had to let Wu Yuemei handle it.

In workshops with more male workers, there is less trouble. They are all big men, and there are not so many things to do with mothers-in-law.

Wu Yuemei slumped on the chair, angrily threw the book in her hand on the table, grabbed the water glass at hand, and after drinking the water, her expression recovered a little.

Tian Zhongqing said with a smile: "Yuemei, who are you angry with again?"

Wu Yuemei leaned on the back of the chair, and sighed, "It's still the two female workers in the workshop last Friday. Because of the quarrel, they got bored with each other. They insisted on changing workshops, and they were unwilling to stay together again."

Xu Qing didn't know the specific situation. Hearing Wu Yuemei's words, he didn't express any opinions or suggestions.

Qian Bing sat next to Xu Qing, stopped the pen in his hand, raised his head and said to Wu Yuemei:
"If it doesn't work, just tell the other workshop directors and see which workshop is short of manpower and transfer one out for the time being. This will save you from being like a punching bag every day and being bothered by them."

Wu Yuemei put her hands on the table, supported her chin, and said with some despair:

"I think so too. I've talked to other workshop directors before, and it's not like no one is willing to accept it."

Wei Shengli and Chen Guodong stretched their necks, looked at Wu Yuemei, and came up with ideas one after another.

There was a female colleague in the office, and the men naturally surrounded her.

What's more, Wu Yuemei is beautiful, cute, and has a charming smile.

Xu Qing still didn't speak, quietly watching the other four offer their words and suggestions.

However, no one came up with a good solution until after get off work at noon.

Everyone knows this kind of thing, and the crux lies with the two female workers. If each takes a step back, it will be fine.

Let the girls take a step back, the degree of difficulty is tantamount to rebuilding the Great Wall.

The best way is actually to let the two of them turn their hostility into friendship.

But the problem is that this is not easy to do. It’s not that Wu Yuemei didn’t work hard, but unfortunately she had little effect.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be from last week to this week.

As the off-duty bell rang, everyone stopped discussing and went to the cafeteria to prepare for dinner.

When going to the cafeteria to eat, Xu Qing met Ma Jiefang on the road.

Ma Jiefang took out a note and whispered, "Brother Qingzi, my fifth sister asked me to give it to you."

Xu Qing took the note, put it in his pocket, and asked Ma Jiefang, "Your Fifth Sister didn't blame me yesterday, did you?"

Last weekend, Xu Qing stayed in the courtyard all day and did not go out to meet Ma Jinghong.

Ma Jiefang said with a sad face: "No, my fifth sister didn't blame you. She blamed me. She said that I shouldn't have helped you take care of things the night before. She was at home yesterday and bullied me all day. If my mother hadn't stopped me, I guess today I have to go to the hospital."

When Xu Qing heard this, he almost burst out laughing.

He knew that Ma Jiefang exaggerated the facts and was full of water in his words, but he also understood Ma Jinghong's temper.

Ma Jinghong must have been angry. She asked for help but didn't meet her. Ma Jiefang, who was the venting bag, was naturally unable to escape.

Xu Qing smiled, patted Ma Jiefang on the shoulder and said: "Hang on, when I marry your sister, you will see how I deal with her in the future!"

Ma Jiefang curled his lips with a look of disbelief.

"Come on, Brother Qingzi, my fifth sister's temper makes me afraid that she will deal with it after you marry her."

Xu Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had no choice but to pat Ma Jiefang's back and go into the cafeteria.

After eating, Xu Qing left the cafeteria and was the first to return to the office. He opened the note written by Ma Jinghong and sat at his desk to read it.
