Country Love: Xie Dajiao, 37, is pregnant!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Liu." Xiao Li stuck out his tongue.

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

Liu Da Nao remembered what Wang Dana had said and quickly waved his hand:

"Where is General Manager Lin?"

"He drove off, I don't know where he went, he said he had something to do."

"Alright, I understand. You can go do your thing. You don't need to worry about me. I'll call you if I need anything."

"Okay!" Xiao Li turned around and went out.

As Liu Da Nao watched her retreating figure, he thought to himself that he would have to think twice before treating Secretary Li from now on.

……

The two didn't wait long before they saw Bai Qingming come out carrying a suitcase. He was a young man in a casual suit and looked quite energetic.

Wang Xiaomeng quickly waved, and Bai Qingming walked over with a smile.

"Mr. Bai, you must be tired from your journey!"

Wang Xiaomeng introduced with a smile:

"This is Lin Chen, my brother Chen. He came with me to pick you up today."

Hello, hello.

Bai Qingming proactively offered his help:

"I've heard Xiaomeng and Qiuge mention you a lot during meetings, and I'm so glad to finally meet you today."

"Don't mention it, you must be tired from the long journey. Get in the car, let's go back to the village first."

Lin Chen put his luggage away, and the three of them got into the car and drove back.

They chatted about the details of the cooperation all the way, and soon arrived at their destination. The car stopped in front of the new office building, and Bai Qingming got out, looked up, and was immediately stunned:

"Wow, Xiao Meng, this office building is much more professional than I imagined!"

"The renovation was just completed, and it's not completely tidied up yet."

Wang Xiaomeng smiled and pushed open the building door:

"Come on, let's go inside and take a look. The office is all set up. See if it meets the standards."

The group walked around the building, upstairs and downstairs, and toured the production workshop. Bai Qingming nodded repeatedly.

"Very satisfied! It's much better than I expected. With such a good foundation, our cooperation will definitely be fine."

"You'll be put in a dormitory upstairs. It's all cleaned up, but the conditions are definitely not as good as in Shanghai. Just make do with it."

"That's good enough!"

Bai Qingming smiled and waved his hand:

"I'm here to work, not to relax. We can start this afternoon, so let's go through the channel plan first."

Lin Chen sat beside them smoking, watching the two workaholics, and chuckled as he chimed in:

"Mr. Bai, you should take a rest. We'll treat you to dinner tonight, let's chat while we eat."

"That's so kind of you."

"Don't be shy, you've come all this way, so we have to make arrangements."

Lin Chen said with a smile:

"You pack first, we'll come pick you up tonight."

Watching Wang Xiaomeng and Lin Chen leave together, Bai Qingming smiled. This must be Wang Xiaomeng's man. To be honest, they are quite a good match.

……

Another day passed. In the morning, Li Daguo carried a stainless steel thermos to the clinic to deliver food to Xiangxiu. He couldn't walk any further as soon as he stepped into the room.

There was a person standing in the middle of the room, with hair sticking up like a bird's nest, I don't know how much hairspray they used.

The man was looking up at the hygiene regulations sign on the wall, his head slightly tilted back. Who else could this be but Wang Tianlai?

However, he has changed a lot. He is completely different from the timid young doctor he used to be. It's like he's a different person. After being out in the world for so long, he is much more confident.

Li Daguo's face immediately fell. He slammed the thermos on the table and spoke in a sarcastic tone:

"Hey, isn't this Dr. Wang? His hair looks like it's been bombed! I thought some high-ranking official was on an inspection tour. Is this his official appointment?"

Wang Tianlai turned his head and saw him, smiled, and without any fear, extended his hand generously:

"Brother Daguo is here? I'm officially reporting for duty today. From now on, I'll be working with Xiangxiu. Please take care of me."

"A team? I thought you were some high-ranking official."

Li Daguo crossed his arms, remained unmoved by the outstretched hand, glanced at him up and down, and curled his lip:

"It's like the county magistrate is going to the countryside, is it really necessary?"

At this moment, the curtain in the inner room was lifted, and Xiangxiu came out with a syringe. Seeing the two of them like this, she quickly tried to smooth things over, taking two quick steps and shoving Li Daguo, elbowing him so hard he stumbled.

"What are you doing? It's Tianlai's first day here, why are you saying that? Tianlai, please sit down, I'll pour you a glass of water."

As she spoke, she turned around and reached for the thermos flask in the corner. Wang Tianlai quickly stepped forward and reached out to take it.

Wang Tianlai smiled and shook his head:

"No need, no need, I can do it myself."

He was still smiling, but his tone was quite firm:

"Brother Daguo, don't worry, I'm just here to do a job. I don't have any other thoughts. Doing a good job at the clinic and providing good medical care for the villagers is more important than anything else, don't you agree?"

He spoke quite frankly and openly, which made Li Daguo seem petty.

Li Daguo snorted, grabbed Xiangxiu's hand, and led her to the door. He glanced back at the room, then looked at Xiangxiu again.

"Mom made you some sauerkraut and pork rib stew. Eat it while it's hot. And let me tell you, watch out. This guy's got a lot of tricks up his sleeve. He's had feelings for you before, and now he's involved with you again."

"Don't overthink it. People come here to work, and you're just making things up."

Xiangxiu reached out and pushed him away:

"Hurry back to the farm, get back to your work."

Li Daguo dawdled as he walked out, giving Wang Tianlai a fierce glare before leaving and letting out a heavy snort.

Wang Tianlai leaned against the table, waving his hand with a smile, not taking it to heart at all; he had prepared himself mentally before coming.

Li Daguo left, and Xiangxiu returned to tidy the table, putting the thermos aside. She looked up and asked:

"Tianlai, where do you live? You come to town every day?"

"Why run? It's cold outside, the wind will hurt your face, running back and forth is just torture."

Wang Tianlai rubbed his hands together and said:

"I'm thinking of asking my uncle-in-law, Changgui, to buy me a place in the village so I can live here and it will be convenient for me to do anything."

"Okay, I'll call my dad later and have him arrange it for you."

"That's great, thank you Xiangxiu." Wang Tianlai's eyes crinkled with laughter, and he looked radiant, a stark contrast to his previous timid self.

On the other side, in the conference room of the new office building of the soy product factory, there was a lot of noise.

The brand-new long conference table was very impressive. The female workers from the factory sat around it, and the chairs creaked as they moved. Wang Laoqi and Xiaomeng's mother were also there. After all, it was the first meeting, so they had to listen. Li Qiuge and Bai Qingming sat on either side of Wang Xiaomeng, waiting for her to speak.

Wang Xiaomeng sat in the main seat, wearing a navy blue suit jacket. Her hair was neatly combed, with even the stray hairs pinned back. She looked capable and energetic, with the air of a female boss.

She tapped the table lightly, smiled, and spoke in a clear, bright voice:

"Quiet down, everyone. Today is the first time we've held a general meeting since our new office building was put into use, and I'm quite excited."

"It's called a meeting, but it's really just to inform everyone of something. Some employees may have already heard that our factory has officially joined Shanghai Qingmei Green Food Co., Ltd. During this period, with the help and guidance of General Manager Bai and Qiu Ge, our company's production structure, quality control standards, and sales processes have all been streamlined, and the basic framework of a formal company has been set up."

"Next, there is a task of training all employees. General Manager Bai and Director Li will teach everyone about technology, standards, and sales. Everyone should study hard, and only those who pass the exam can officially start working. From now on, we will be a regular team, and we can no longer be as confused as we were in the small workshop before."

Everyone below nodded in agreement. Several ambitious female workers scribbled notes in their notebooks, while a few older workers huddled together and whispered among themselves:

"So you've really joined a big company? Does that mean we're now workers at a big factory?"

"Will that result in a raise?"

"Look at you, so unambitious. A raise is just a matter of time."

Wang Xiaomeng smiled, raised her hand to signal for quiet, and turned slightly to Bai Qingming beside her, gesturing for him to enter.

"That's all I wanted to say. Now, let's invite Mr. Bai to say a few words to everyone. Let's give him a round of applause!"

Applause immediately erupted. Bai Qingming smiled and waved his hand. Only after the applause subsided did he slowly stand up, nod to everyone, and speak in a very professional tone:

"Hello everyone, I am Bai Qingming. I will be working hard with you all for the next period of time. Through the past two days, I can see that your factory is a dynamic and vibrant enterprise. It is precisely because of this that Qingmei Company decided to cooperate with Xiaomeng Bean Products Factory as our first branch in Northeast China."
