Chapter 1054: The Two Generals
"Old lady, are you worried about your grandson?"
In Li Xuewu's office, Wei Zaike asked with a smile after listening to him talking about being late in the morning.
They had made an appointment yesterday that the two would discuss the formulation and implementation of the group organizational system this morning, but unexpectedly Li Xuewu was late.
"There's nothing I can do. I'm an old man. I can't take care of all the grandchildren I have. Now I only have three grandchildren, and two of them are in my home."
Li Xuewu shook his head slightly and said: "My mother is fine. She doesn't spoil her children like my father does. She was so nice to her granddaughter when she saw her."
"It's the same. There's no old person who doesn't like children, and it's the same at my age."
Wei Zaike took a sip of hot tea and said helplessly: "My eldest son dropped out of school after junior high school. I asked him to come to work in the factory and he was willing to do so no matter what."
He leaned back in his chair, looked at the bonsai on the desk with some melancholy and said: "Finally, he followed his third uncle to the south, and said that he had found a partner."
"Hey - that's where I ended up in this life."
"We have to think positively, what if it turns out to be satisfactory?"
Li Xuewu consoled her: "I have lived in the South for some time, and I found that girls tend to speak more gently than those in the North, except for those in southern Sichuan who are more aggressive."
"If he really settles down in the South, he might feel that the climate and soil there are more nurturing and more suitable for him to take root and flourish."
"Haha, you are good at persuading people~"
Wei Zaike calmed down, put down his teacup and asked: "Has there been any movement from the leadership? Regarding the review opinions of the organizational structure, if there are any requirements, we can organize people to conduct research in a timely manner."
"They said they were still reading it, so maybe there are a lot of opinions. After all, it's the first version, so that's normal."
Li Xuewu nodded slowly and said: "Don't be anxious, this job needs to be done slowly. We need to allow the leader to consider the general direction."
"What about you? Do you have any opinions or suggestions? I would like to hear from you."
Wei Zaike looked at Li Xuewu with a smile, picked up the teacup and took a sip. He really liked the tea from Li Xuewu's place. Why did so few people come to visit?
"We held an internal office meeting a few days ago, and the comrades in office mentioned that we should invite you to participate. The sooner we get your valuable opinions, the more valuable they will be."
"Hehe, I'm not busy enough--"
Li Xuewu chuckled and joked, "Let's talk to the leader later and let's switch positions. I'll also learn from the advanced experience of the Zhengzhi Group."
"Forget it! I welcome you to join the Zhengzhi Group, but please don't make me busy with your business!"
Wei Zaike waved his hand with amusement and said: "You are young, it is a good thing for you to exercise more. You won't feel tired when you are busy with so many things."
"I can't do it. I'm old and it's really tiring."
He leaned against the backrest and pointed in the direction of the main office building and said: "Look at Lao Ding, he is so tired after running around with Director Li for this month."
"I'm busy with projects and hosting work during the day, and busy with social events at night. I don't know where I wake up the next morning. Even an iron man can't stand it. If I were him, I would have put out the fire long ago."
"Look at what you said, Director Ding is not an ordinary soldier, he is a man who can fight and carry!"
Li Xuewu gave a thumbs up and said: "I have never seen him say anything discouraging."
"Well, he's almost dead—"
Wei Zaike folded his right leg and said, "He doesn't come home every night, and his wife stands in the kitchen and curses. We live next door to them and can hear it clearly."
“Really? This is so inconvenient.”
Li Xuewu said with a wicked smile: "If I really run into someone giving a gift, do you think I should accept it or not?"
"Don't talk about that. I don't dare to say that I am upright and incorruptible, but I am worthy of the organization."
Wei Zai said jokingly: "Old Ding doesn't come home at night not only because of social engagements, but also to avoid relationships. There are people knocking on the door every night."
"Otherwise, Old Ding's wife would curse in the streets!"
He took a sip of hot tea with a smile and said, "Before he left that day, he told his wife not to accept any gifts from the family!"
"If someone knocks on the door at night, just say he is not at home and it is not convenient to entertain guests. If you can chase them away, then do so. If you can't, then just be honest and say that he is not coming home because the couple is having a quarrel."
"Hahaha--!"
Li Xuewu laughed and asked: "What's the big deal? Why are you acting like a thief? Who forced Director Ding to be like this? He has no home to return to."
"Hey! Don't say that! They didn't look for you! You don't know how annoying these people are!"
Wei Zaike curled his lips and said, "Old Ding's wife felt sorry for him at first, but now she's really upset. She said that this office director is like a damn ghost summoner, and he's actually a ghost in the night!"
That's right. People at this time have to save face. If they really want to go to the leader's house to ask for connections and give gifts, they would rather go in the middle of the night.
Leaders also have to have some dignity, so even if they do collect the money, they only dare to do so in the middle of the night, otherwise they would say it’s all ghosts.
"The issue of setting the tone for the group's organizational structure is becoming more and more serious."
Wei Zaike told a joke about Ding Zigui, but he was really talking about the problem and reflecting on it.
He looked at Li Xuewu seriously and said, "It's time to take care of this. You're in such a mess."
“Well, it doesn’t look good.”
Li Xuewu thought for a moment, glanced at Wei Zaike, and asked, "Are you not affected?"
“How dare they send something to my house!”
Wei Zaike rolled his eyes and said, "I told my wife to accept any gift from anyone. Just remember the name and give it to me. I'll give it to him the next day!"
Li Xuewu nodded slowly and said: "I will mention this to the leader, and ask the Commission Office to issue a document, and the Propaganda Department to also work on guiding public opinion."
"As for those who do not repent, who commit crimes in defiance of the law, and who dare to give and receive gifts, we will catch a group of typical examples and deal with them severely."
As he said this, his expression became serious and he said, "Every time we face organizational and personnel adjustments, the people below become chaotic before much of the action at the top. We cannot allow this trend to continue."
"Moreover, when it comes to organizational work, we must keep a close eye on it, important information cannot be leaked, and we cannot appoint someone before they are appointed. This is not good."
“Yeah, that’s my opinion too.”
Wei Zaike nodded seriously and said: "We should carry out more organizational and personnel investigations, collect information more diligently, and reduce surprise investigations."
"Then we should take advantage of the discussion on the group's organizational structure to strengthen the organization's discipline."
Li Xuewu took a sip of hot tea and said, "As for the opinions on the structure, I did some special research when I went back that night."
"Group decision-making, factory execution, verticalization of personnel, hierarchical finance, and flat management, it's just these few simple points."
He discussed with Wei Zaike several of the opinions he had raised, mainly emphasizing the importance of strong soldiers with small heads and big bodies.
Establishing a unified management and decision-making system for the group, formulating an execution supervision and restraint mechanism, and taking a holistic approach and coordinating development are the main directions that the two jointly studied and finalized.
In fact, when Li Xuewu submitted the first draft for review to several factory leaders, he had already attached his own opinions and suggestions.
How to think, how to define, and how to research all require the leaders to come up with their own opinions and discuss them at the meeting before they can be handed over to the lower levels.
On the one hand, it is compliance management and strict systems, on the other hand, it is the division of responsibilities and the improvement of the system. Finally, it is the coordination of supervision between the upper and lower levels and the improvement of work coordination channels.
In fact, Wei Zaike’s main purpose in coming here to ask was to find out if the leader had any other considerations.
This includes all leaders, whether they have any vested interests or subjective opinions on certain clauses in the plan.
Li Xuewu also gave an explanation for this. In his understanding, the upgrading and groupization of steel rolling mills is the result of long-term accumulation and is an inevitable trend.
Everyone can only follow the trend and respond to the call of the times. Personal gains and losses are not worth mentioning at all when a large factory with tens of thousands of employees is moving towards the goal of groupization.
Anyone who dares to bring up personal interests at this time is simply brainless.
Li Xuewu told Wei Zaike that the Commission's order was also to achieve the effect of "do not say I did not warn you" and to launch the Qingliu Action with reason and evidence.
The purpose of following up on publicity and controlling public opinion is to explain to the cadres of the organs the fundamental principles and basic situation of the formulation of this group structure.
Of course, we will not disclose the composition of each department or section, but we will tell everyone that what we are working on now is structure, not personnel.
In other words, the shelf is being built, and it is not yet time to decide who will go up there.
It is too early to start burning incense and worshiping Buddha now. It not only affects the lives of the cadres in charge of related work, but also affects the management discipline of the agency.
Take a two-pronged approach and cut the Gordian knot.
At the same time, we must also actively promote the discussion and research of the plan in a practical and feasible manner and come up with a version of opinions and directions as soon as possible.
This will give relevant departments time and space to improve the process and provide a second version for discussion as soon as possible.
The work of groupization is complex and tedious, and Li Xuewu is involved in it as the deputy director of the leadership group office.
The relevant leaders serve as team leaders and deputy team leaders, and the team members are the team leaders and deputy team leaders of each group. After several rounds of meetings, the progress has been fast enough.
It wasn't a wrong decision for Wei Zaike to come to Li Xuewu, because Li Xuewu was the only one who had a say among the leaders of various factories regarding this job.
The opinions obtained from him can basically be used as the final reference, especially the leader’s personal opinion, which is still very important to him.
It's better to get reassurance from Li Xuewu than to be rejected by the leader.
Now the team leaders and deputy team leaders of each group basically have a general understanding.
The promotion work at the end of this year may not be smooth. After all, at this time, especially when the steel mills are interested in achieving groupization, the higher-ups must also fully consider the actual situation.
But there should be definite news in the first half of next year. With a one-year difference, many things are hard to say and uncertain.
So if someone comes to give gifts at this time, it is completely nonsense and they will not pay any attention to it.
As for the groupization process, according to the pressure revealed by the leaders and the gossip they have learned themselves, the final goal should be achieved as expected.
Because as long as the promotion work can be completed and the personnel problem is solved, the problems of division of labor and position in the group can also be solved.
People in the city don't want to see the children they raised run away, but once a child grows up, he is no longer under the control of his mother.
The higher-ups would like to see steel mills become group-based, achieve large-scale development and an explosion of economic capacity.
The corporatization and groupization of factories proves that the current economy is vibrant and has embarked on a distinctive development path.
At the same time, we should also realize that in the process of progress and development, factories will drive the powerful advantages of the labor market, financial market, and industrial clustering.
The most direct point is that in the process of realizing the groupization of the steel rolling mill, cadres must be arranged from above to participate in the construction work.
In a large group, it is impossible for the factory to make all the decisions on how to assign positions on its own.
The steel mill is developing so well, which shows that the leaders in the factory are combat-ready.
Overall planning and coordinated development. If the cadres here go out and take charge of work in other factories, can they exchange the advanced experience here?
Cadre exchanges are definitely an advantage. They are good for both superiors and subordinates, and are also an opportunity for progress and development for the parties involved.
So we can see that in this work, no factory leader was unreasonable or dragged his feet.
There is no leader who fights for his own interests or grabs his own territory.
There is no need to. It is not certain whether this land will be yours in the end. Perhaps when the group process is realized, half of the current team will leave.
Think again, how many people are in the team now and how many people will there be in the future.
It is normal to double it. After all, the current management structure is still the management committee. After the group is realized, the factory director responsibility system must be restored.
On this point, everyone's opinions were relatively consistent at the organizational structure discussion meeting.
The abolition of the factory director responsibility system was originally a response to the call for extensive learning, in order to fully summarize ideas and learn from experience in order to concentrate our efforts on doing great things.
Now that our strength is concentrated and major tasks have been accomplished, the focus should be on returning to economic and production construction.
The organizational transformation of the steel mill will take half a year to surpass the current transformation situation.
The factory has always strictly implemented the issuance and study of guiding documents and decision-making documents.
In other words, the steel rolling mill runs fast, has concentrated strength and unity, and is able to keep up with the pace of change and the times.
In the face of last year's economic summary and the summary of developments in the first quarter of this year, there is already a desire to revive the economy and develop production.
Especially during the big learning activities, the national tours of progressive teachers and students from other places have been stopped, and even cities have begun to recall and clear them out.
The leaders above frequently visited the production line for inspections and even held several economic discussion meetings to discuss and study the important work of strengthening production and promoting learning.
Fundamentally, there has never been any intention to hinder the production and construction of the factory, including the special instructions issued in May last year.
It was precisely because of this favorable trend that the steel rolling mills established organizations such as joint trade, joint production and joint tertiary industry.
This year, we have focused our efforts on building the automotive industry supply chain, the seafood food industry supply chain, and the supply chain systems for raw materials such as coal, iron, minerals, and wood.
So although the steel rolling mill is moving very fast and hurriedly now, it is also very stable and is highly valued by the higher-ups.
The formulation of management systems has certain rules and principles, and more depends on policies for implementation.
Li Huaide privately mentioned to Li Xuewu that the higher-ups were interested in exploring the factory director responsibility system under the management committee structure, as well as the restoration and construction of the management team.
This is beyond doubt. All cadres must be under the leadership of the organization when performing their work, and should receive education and guidance from the party.
Therefore, the general trend outside now is to deal with development and change, learn advanced experience, and take the path of rebuilding management structure.
But here at the steel mill, the experimental road has been exhausted and it is time to get back on track.
Of course, we must see the limitations of this reform and development. To restore the system of factory directors taking charge and the organizational structure is only policy guidance.
Regarding how to implement it, Li Huaide and several other deputy directors at the steel mill coordinated their opinion and decided to wait and see.
It's not about calling numbers, but about walking and looking in the true sense.
However, this structure and goal must be incorporated into the construction of a group organizational structure.
There can be two sets of plans, but it must be ensured that when such a change in wind direction occurs within one year or three years, the factory can quickly come up with a solution.
After seeing Wei Zai Ke left, Li Xuewu called each leader to report on the issue.
-
"Boss, I've told the logistics department that we need to add three more cabinets, and we need to sort out and re-file the materials. There's no room for them now."
Peng Xiaoli came in when Li Xuewu was calling. He first cleared the teacups, refilled his tea, and then tidied up the documents on the desk.
He waited until Li Xuewu finished his call to Deputy Director Jing before he started reporting.
Li Xuewu took a sip of hot tea, nodded and said, "Do your thing. Shall we move now?"
"The logistics comrades are already waiting at the door"
Peng Xiaoli organized the documents on the table and packed them into a box. He would take them back to his room to sort them out for filing, and then pass them on to the lower levels or the commissioned office.
After getting Li Xuewu's consent, he walked to the door and greeted: "Come, comrades, please take care of yourself and don't knock on the cabinet door."
Someone answered at the door, and Peng Xiaoli was standing in the room, ready to guide them where to put the cabinet.
Li Xuewu didn't pay much attention to it. He just looked at the documents in his hand. There were only three cabinets in his office, all of which were standard filing cabinets.
However, due to his office habits, many documents need to be filed and tracked after review, which results in a large number of documents.
Not only were the three large cabinets full, but there were also some files stacked on the small table next to the sofa, on the cabinet, in the corner behind him, and even on the ground near the cabinet, which was covered with a layer of wooden boards.
In fact, Peng Xiaoli's job is very hard. Just organizing and processing these documents is tiring enough for him, not to mention having to deal with other tasks.
Peng Xiaoli had a hard time, and Li Xuewu, who directly handled these documents, had an even harder time.
The Security Department didn’t have so much work before. It’s just that Fu Bin spends more time drinking tea and less time reading documents every day.
It's completely different when it comes to him. On the one hand, he is very strict in his work, and on the other hand, there is a lot of work now.
Perhaps the logistics staff were afraid of disturbing him while he was reading documents, so even though the cabinet they were moving was very heavy, there was no noise or disturbance.
The placement and arrangement of the three square cabinets were arranged by Peng Xiaoli, and they were lined up along another wall. These people also had to help move the documents in the office to the coffee table and the sofa and reclassify them.
Those that have exceeded the deadline must be classified and sent to the warehouse, and those that are within the tracking deadline must be classified and placed in cabinets. The documents originally in the three cabinets also need to be sorted out.
Because the noise from several people coming in to help was quite loud, Peng Xiaoli waited until his leader finished his call and agreed to it in advance.
"Please take the trouble to move the documents on the floor to the coffee table. There are dates and notes on the documents. Just put them in order."
While making arrangements, Peng Xiaoli also put labels on the cabinet partitions according to the plan that had been made long ago.
He pointed to the label and told several people the requirements and methods of archiving. There was another round of responses in the room, but they were all very soft.
Li Xuewu glanced at them casually and was about to continue looking at the documents when he found Ge Shuqin standing there with some people listening to Peng Xiaoli's instructions.
Ge Shuqin also saw him, or rather, she knew who she was going to meet when she and her colleagues moved cabinets in and were asked to help the leader organize the documents.
She was a little embarrassed. This was different from when she saw Li Xuewu in the yard yesterday.
The office was very large, for her, it was bigger than her house.
The atmosphere here is somewhat serious and majestic, especially the large desk, the wall-lined filing cabinets, the wooden sofa, and the painting behind Li Xuewu.
Just when they were asked by Secretary Peng to wait at the door, they listened to their leader making a phone call in the office. The people they were talking about work with were all factory leaders, and they didn't dare to feel anxious or complain at all.
I just felt that this was a rare opportunity to get in touch with the leaders' work. Although I couldn't quite understand what the leaders were communicating, it must be related to major events in the factory, otherwise why would I call all the leaders?
Being able to communicate with the boss about work over the phone is a special thing in itself. After entering the room, I felt a burden, as if it was inappropriate to speak loudly.
Perhaps Ge Shuqin is the only one here who feels complicated and uneasy.
She didn't know how to describe her own affairs, the succession, her relationship with Yan Jiefang, and the Yan family.
Li Xuewu's gaze only paused on her for a moment, which made her lower her head, not daring to look him in the face.
When Ge Shuqin started to organize the documents according to Secretary Peng's request, she looked up again and found that Li Xuewu had already lowered his head and started working again.
Peng Xiaoli had already made preparations for classification and archiving, so the execution went smoothly according to his requirements.
There was only a little talking in the office, and after a quick brief communication, everyone was busy.
"Director Li, yo! Busy~"
Someone knocked on the office door and said hello. Peng Xiaoli greeted him with a smile, "Deputy Director Ao, I'm sorry. I was packing documents and didn't see you coming."
"Deputy Director Ao, come here."
When Li Xuewu saw Ao Yuhua coming over, he put down the pen in his hand, stood up and walked towards her.
Ao Yuhua was very polite and said to Peng Xiaoli, "It's okay, go about your business."
"I came to talk to you about the return visit next month. Deputy Director Jing asked about it."
Ao Yuhua saw that the sofa was covered with documents, so he didn't go over there. He went straight to the desk and said, "Director Li has work to do. Let's see if we can coordinate the time. It won't look good for Deputy Director Jing to go alone."
"Sit down, sit down and talk"
Li Xuewu gave her his seat, and then he returned to his seat and sat down and asked, "Does Director Li have any plans?"
"He said there were no special arrangements, but there might be some temporary work. He asked me to ask you."
Ao Yuhua smiled bitterly and said: "I've also run around, let's see how to arrange it."
“I should be fine.”
Li Xuewu took the notebook handed over by Peng Xiaoli, looked at it, and said, "We have to go to Tianjin on the evening of the 3rd and will not be back until Sunday."
"If it's scheduled in the first week, it seems a bit tight."
He raised his head and asked, "How many are there in total?"
"Credit unions, steel institutes, textile mills"
Ao Yuhua said: "It would be best to arrange follow-up visits to these three companies in the first half of this month. Deputy Director Jing's opinion is that we should communicate as soon as possible to finalize the cooperation."
"It would be best if we could arrange for Beijing Second Automobile Works and Beijing Railway Station in the second half of the month. The project should be almost ready."
"The Iron and Steel Institute is scheduled for Monday, the day after we return. I will contact Principal Pei."
Li Xuewu scratched his face, frowned and thought, "The credit will be put on Thursday. There is a meeting with the shipyard on Wednesday."
"The textile factory will be held on Saturday, Saturday afternoon."
He thought for a while and said, "Last time the textile factory agreed to organize a sit-down, and their director Gu also had this idea."
"Then you must go, otherwise you won't be able to come back."
Ao Yuhua said helplessly: "Deputy Director Jing specifically told you to do it in the morning if possible. She is afraid of this kind of situation."
"I'm afraid I can't solve the problem, but I can't avoid it."
Li Xuewu smiled and said, "You are only allowed to knock the other person down, but you don't give him the chance to knock you down?"
After saying that, he looked at the notebook again and said, "We have almost finished communicating with Second Automobile Works. I have been following this project. Let's put it on the 21st. Deputy Director Jing and I will go there. There shouldn't be any problem."
"There's no need to go to the train station. I'll call their deputy stationmaster and make an appointment to sit down in the evening."
With just a few words, the problem that had been bothering Ao Yuhua for several rounds of running around was easily solved. Ao Yuhua was so moved that he said he would come here directly next time.
Li Xuewu waved his hand and said: "Don't do that. If the leader is busy, I really can't move him away, and we will inevitably be in a mess again."
"I want to tell you something. Please make a decision. This is a message sent back from Director Li."
When seeing her off, Ao Yuhua whispered to Li Xuewu at the door: "The son of former Deputy Director Nie is here, and he wants treatment for his father."
"Who? Deputy Director Nie?"
Li Xuewu frowned slightly and said, "It's Nie Xiaoguang, right? What kind of treatment do you want?"
"It's him, he's blocking Director Li's car at the gate with two young men."
Ao Yuhua also said in embarrassment: "He told Director Li that his father suffered a work-related injury in the shipyard and should enjoy labor protection benefits, and requested that his father be transferred back to Beijing for recuperation."
"Is the injury real?"
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why haven't I heard of this?"
"I called Director Xu to ask."
Ao Yuhua frowned and said, "He said he hit his hand and broke a bone, but it's not serious and he's already resting. Nie Chenglin didn't ask to return to Beijing for recuperation."
"Did Nie Xiaoguang act on his own initiative?"
Li Xuewu had some impression of this guy. He wanted to kill Li Huaide at first and threatened that he would never come to the steel mill again. His next visit was to celebrate Li Huaide's death.
He was young, impulsive and brainless, a typical fool. I don't know how he ended up doing something like this again.
When Nie Chenglin was originally arranged to go to Yingcheng Shipyard, the intention was actually to take care of him.
It is not easy for Dong Wenxue to deal with it. After all, the steel plant is too big and he cannot control what his subordinates do.
But there are basically no problems at the shipyard. The supervisors are basically the original technical cadres of the shipyard. Even if there are labor arrangements, they can be dealt with severely.
The main purpose was to send him far away so that Li Huaide wouldn't worry about him. Unexpectedly, Nie Xiaoguang was afraid that his father would not be remembered by Li Huaide.
In other words, does he hate his father for being alive?
"What does he mean? Money?"
Li Xuewu frowned and said, "You don't really think that you can bring his father back by threatening him with this trick?"
"I don't understand either. He hasn't even left yet, but he's blocking the gate waiting for Director Li's car."
Ao Yuhua also had a headache when she mentioned him. Her relationship with Nie Chenglin was not very good, but it was not very bad either. She had never thought about doing anything, but helping out was the only possibility.
But facing the stubborn and unruly Nie Xiaoguang, she said all the good things she could to him and explained the impact of the matter, but the other party was stubborn and insisted on blocking Director Li's car.
If Director Li blocked him once, he could still treat him as a child and ignore him, but if he blocked him a second time, perhaps it would be the responsibility of the committee office and the security team.
"Okay, I'll take care of this."
Li Xuewu had no choice but to take on this job of cleaning up the mess, since he was related to both departments.
After seeing Ao Yuhua off, he also figured it out. On the one hand, the other party came here to ask about the itinerary arrangements, and they could just communicate over the phone.
The reason why he came in person might be because of this hot potato. After all, everyone knows Deputy Director Nie's situation, and he is not a bad person.
Therefore, how to treat their family members and their demands is really a troublesome matter.
Li Xuewu returned to his desk and sat down. Peng Xiaoli came over and asked, "Do you want me to go to the door and check the situation?"
"No, leave him alone first. Young people are prone to taking advantage of others."
Li Xuewu took a sip of hot tea, thought for a while, and said: "Call the guard room and keep an eye on him. If he shows any intention of leaving, bring him in."
After saying that, he waved his hand to signal him to do the task, while he flipped through the notebook in his hand, thinking about Nie Chenglin's situation.
The reason why Li Huaide didn't touch him might be because he was too busy, or it might be because Nie Chenglin was more cooperative with his work.
But the bad thing is that Nie Chenglin has a restless son, who is also a very filial son.
"Boss, let me move the files at the back."
When he was thinking about something, he suddenly heard someone talking to him. When he looked up, it was Ge Shuqin.
"okay"
Li Xuewu stood up and gave her his seat, allowing her to tidy up the pile of documents in the corner.
"What time do you come to work?"
"I...I am the beginning of the month"
Ge Shuqin didn't expect Li Xuewu to ask her a question, so she answered stutteringly, her face full of caution and restraint.
Li Xuewu put down the notebook in his hand, looked at her and asked, "Are you feeling well? I remember notifying the HR department, didn't they arrange any vacation for you?"
Everyone else in the room paused. They were a little surprised to hear their leader greeting Ge Shuqin.
But everyone knows that Li Xuewu is a good person, especially his attitude towards grassroots office staff.
The leader asked about her personal situation to show his concern, but he did not expect that Li Xuewu was so concerned about Ge Shuqin.
The other party had just started working, and the specific situation was only spread among the class members.
Seeing that Ge Shuqin is honest, hardworking and willing to work hard, everyone has a good impression of her.
Now it seems that Ge Shuqin also has some background, otherwise how could she have taken over her husband's job so easily.
He also had some evil intentions. He thought that Ge Shuqin was a widow at a young age, and Li Xuewu was not very old either, so what if something happened to him?
However, not many people think this way. It is easy to see that Ge Shuqin and Li Xuewu are not very familiar with each other. After all, even if acquaintances don't talk, their relationship can be seen.
Ge Shuqin did not expect that Li Xuewu would care about her. She walked out with the documents and handed them to her colleague, then stood there and replied cautiously: "The HR department gave me leave. I will come to work when I am well again."
She lowered her head and did not dare to look at Li Xuewu. She pinched her fingers and said, "Thank you for your care. I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."
"It's not a big deal, but you still need to take care of your health, especially when your children are young."
Li Xuewu nodded and asked, "Who is taking care of the child? Auntie San?"
Even though the Li family has a bad relationship with the neighbors next door, even though the Yan couple are like that, even though Li Xuewu no longer lives in the compound and has a higher status, they still have to call each other neighbors.
This is a quality of being a human being. It is impossible to call her by her name. After all, she is from the same courtyard and she is Ge Shuqin's mother-in-law.
Another thing is that Li Xuewu took care of Ge Shuqin not entirely for her sake, but also for the sake of Yan Jiecheng and the child.
If you ask Li Xuewu to bully someone, he can beat the person to death.
But when faced with the accidental death of a friend who he had played with since childhood and had worked with, especially one who had left behind a child, no matter how much he despised Ge Shuqin and the Yan family, he had to help to the best of his ability.
Ge Shuqin could feel the sincerity in Li Xuewu's words, and replied with her head down: "No... Yan Jiefang is coaxing her, my mother-in-law is busy."
"Yan Jiefang can even coax a child——?"
Li Xuewu looked at her, shook his chin and said, "What is Third Aunt busy with? She doesn't even have time to see her granddaughter. Guodong told me that Yan Jiefang is collecting waste, isn't he?"
"……yes……"
Ge Shuqin clenched her fingers tightly and hesitated again and again when faced with Li Xuewu's questions. She didn't know how to answer.
Li Xuewu looked at her, frowned and asked, "Yan Jiefang has such a weak leg, why is he still holding a child and going out to work?"
"Yes, he was coaxing her."
At this moment, everyone else in the room pricked up their ears, as if they had heard some complicated gossip.
It is easiest and most willing to pass this on in government agencies, and it is used as a way to relax during work breaks.
Ge Shuqin originally didn't discuss these things with her colleagues, and never thought of mentioning them.
She just wanted to work hard and earn money to support her family, but she didn't expect Li Xuewu to ask her everything in front of her colleagues.
But she couldn't just not answer. Her hesitation just now was an inner struggle. Now that she had been asked, she just told it all.
"It's been about a month since he started collecting waste when I went to work. My mother-in-law doesn't want to take care of the child, so he has to take care of her."
"Actually it's okay. I feed him in the morning and evening. Sometimes he and the child come to the factory at noon. I feed him with milk powder at ordinary times. I can take care of him fairly well. After all, the weather is warmer now."
After hearing what she said, the people working in the office calmed down and no longer had those evil thoughts.
Who would have the heart to tease or joke with such a miserable person?
Li Xuewu nodded, looked her over, and asked, "What kind of work should I assign you to do?"
"It's logistics. I have a limited education and there are not many jobs I can do."
Ge Shuqin said frankly: "It's good to be in logistics. The work is not very tiring and I can do it."
"Yeah, ok, that's good."
Seeing that they had packed up the documents at the back, Li Xuewu sat back in his chair.
"Okay, you guys go ahead and get busy."
"Thank you, leader"
Ge Shuqin responded and went back to her work. However, her colleagues who had just looked at her with that kind of eyes no longer looked weird or inquiring.
She also didn't think that by telling the truth, she would not arouse everyone's disgust and hatred.
No matter what era it is, a widowed sister-in-law being with her younger brother-in-law will always be criticized.
Especially since she had just become a widow, this incident made her feel even more inferior in her heart.
But fate was such that she had no chance to fight back and it was just luck that she survived.
She is no longer the rebellious little sister in Gangcheng, nor is she the bad woman when she first came to Beijing. Now she is a mother and the pillar of a family.
If Yan Jiefang hadn't helped her at the beginning, she would have died. Now if she didn't help Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiefang would have to die too. It seemed that fate had long regarded teasing her as a kind of retribution.
All her former debauchery and recklessness came back to her, making her feel regretful and realize how stupid she was in the past.
There were a lot of documents in the office, and it took the six of them nearly an hour to finish sorting them out.
During this period, some people came to Li Xuewu to report on their work, some came to coordinate applications, and some phone calls came in.
Several people happened to have this opportunity to feel the leader's busyness up close.
They had some time to rest while working, but they saw that Li Xuewu was always busy, much busier than them.
Peng Xiaoli politely thanked them for their hard work and sent them away. He returned to the office and reported to Li Xuewu: "There was a call outside the door, saying that Nie Xiaoguang was stopped and he was being brought over."
"Well, you want to leave now?"
Li Xuewu snorted, looked up after reading the document in his hand and said: "Please arrange for Ge Shuqin, who has been busy here, to be transferred to the duty room to do the wiring work."
Peng Xiaoli looked at him with some surprise, wondering how this person was assigned this job.
"Okay, leader. I'll talk to Director Sun and I'll arrange it right away."
"Well, Sun Jian should know her situation. She is Yan Jiecheng's wife. The child was very small, and she almost died due to heavy bleeding during delivery."
Li Xuewu explained and nodded: "There's nothing wrong with working in logistics, it's just hard work and it's inconvenient to take care of children."
"Her family situation is very special, so please take good care of her. You can also take care of the children while working in the duty room."
"Okay, leader, I understand," Peng Xiaoli nodded and said, "I will explain it clearly to Director Sun, and I will report to you after the arrangements are made."
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door and the security guard reported that the person had arrived.
Li Xuewu tilted his head and looked towards the door. Wow, the two generals Heng and Ha have arrived.
How did Nie Xiaoguang get together with Zhao Xia?
Isn’t this the equivalent of a sleeping dragon meeting a phoenix?
