The Black Card - Chapter 818

[Chapter 816 Let Mom Be the Boss]

learning that their son was back, Shi Zhongping and Gao Yan wished they could leave the work immediately and return home to take a good look at this son who made them proud.

However, it is precisely because Shi Lei’s current development makes the old couple so proud that they have to keep a low profile in the work unit to avoid being gossiped by colleagues who have worked together for half their lives.

Especially Shi Zhongping.

He used to be just an ordinary team leader in the workshop, and he was almost laid off. It was only because of his son that he not only was not forced to leave the company, but also became the chairman of the labor union.

After recuperating and returning to the work unit, Shi Zhongping warned himself that he must do a good job in the union’s work and must not embarrass his son, let alone disappoint the employees who had hopes for him.

In the past six months, Shi Zhongping has been doing well in his position as union chairman, and his reputation in the factory is also quite good.

But with the popularity of the two companies Qixuan and Kuaimo, even if they have not yet opened up the market in Runzhou, how can a society with such a developed Internet be able to hide it from others?

It was a little better at the beginning, because Shi Lei was a low-key person. Even if everyone knew that Shi Lei had opened a company in Wudong and became the boss, they would never have thought that the sensational Qi Xuan and flash mobs were actually Shi Lei’s industries.

But when Qian Zigong came out and started talking nonsense, and Shi Lei responded forcefully, everyone immediately thought of Shi Zhongping’s family when they heard the name Shi Lei.

After checking the Internet, it turned out that it was indeed the stone they had watched growing up in the factory. Who else could it be?

Being famous is of course a good thing, but it will be followed by all kinds of discussions. When Shi Zhongping and his wife met old acquaintances while shopping for groceries at work, they all greeted them warmly.

Speaking of which, it’s fortunate that Shi Zhongping was just an ordinary group leader. If he had been the union chairman earlier, there would have been people talking behind his back, saying that Shi Zhongping embezzled public funds and accepted bribes. Otherwise, how could Shi Lei defeat such a big enemy in Wu Dongzhen with his bare hands? A piece of industry?

But even if it was just that, there were some filthy guys who said that the reason why Shi Zhongping was laid off in the first place, and even the factory wanted him to get the apartment back, was because he was greedy as a team leader. It’s public money, but there’s no evidence in the factory, so this is the reason why.

Most people will definitely sneer at this nonsense. The money a team leader gets every year is at most a high-temperature subsidy in midsummer, which is only a dime. Here, from If the workshop director takes it away, it will be distributed to the employees. How can it be possible to embezzle any public funds?

But rumors do exist after all, and there are always some unreasonable people spreading them to each other, and they will inevitably reach Shi Zhongping’s ears.

As Shi Zhongping was depressed, he became even more low-key in the factory. He couldn’t let these rumors continue to spread, right?

So Shi Lei came back, and Shi Zhongping’s heart had already returned home, but he still had to wait peacefully in the office for the time to get off work.

Gao Yan is similar.

When everyone didn’t know that Qixuan was Shi Lei’s property, she often clicked her thumb and left at work because she was taking care of Shi Zhongping’s leg injury.

Everyone knew about her family situation but didn’t say anything.

However, as Shi Lei’s situation came to light, Gao Yan’s frequent absence from work was talked about by some busybodies in the work unit all day long.

90% jealous and 10% envious, saying that she is now a rich mother and her husband is the chairman of the labor union. She has long since stopped caring about this job. Of course, she can come and leave as she pleases, and the boss of the unit does not dare to What are you talking about? Didn’t her son almost tear down the public security bureau when her husband was in trouble?

Therefore, during this period of time, Gao Yan was extra punctual at work. She was always the first to arrive at work every day and the last to leave, just because she didn’t want to give anyone a chance to gossip.

After finally getting off work at 5:30, Gao Yan immediately called Shi Lei and asked him what he wanted to eat, saying that he would go to the vegetable market to buy it immediately.

How could Shi Lei make his parents so tired? He said, “Tomorrow is the weekend. Let’s eat at home tomorrow. We’ll eat out today.”

Gao Yan was right. His son was very rich now, and he really didn’t. There is no need to buy groceries in such a hurry and go home to cook.

What’s more, no matter how delicious her cooking is, can it still be better than what the chef in the restaurant can cook?

After thinking about it, Gao Yan said: “Son, your aunt, uncle, and uncle are asking me about you today, so I casually said that you will be back today. You see, since they know that you are back, they want to Otherwise, why don’t you invite them to have dinner together tonight?”

Shi Lei said with a smile: “When I got home in the afternoon, they were already here. Forget it today, it would be insincere to call out at the last moment. How about tomorrow? I’ll find you tomorrow. Book two tables in a restaurant and call all the relatives at home, including my dad and you, to have a meal together.”

He took his parents to a restaurant that they would definitely be reluctant to go to. Looking at the menu, Shi Zhongping said: Gao Yan couldn’t help but feel a little worried.

Any vegetarian dish costs dozens of dollars, any meat dish costs hundreds, and seafood can easily cost hundreds of dollars per pound.

Shi Lei knew that his parents would definitely be reluctant to part with them, so he ordered the dishes himself without any extravagance. He picked some things that his parents had never eaten before and ordered two cold dishes, four hot dishes and a cup of soup for each person.

“Your mother just said that your aunt and your second uncle are both at home?” Shi Zhongping drank the soup, praised it, raised his head and asked.

Shi Lei sighed and said: “Well, as soon as I got home in the afternoon, they knocked on the door, and I didn’t even have time to drink. I asked them if there was something wrong, but they refused to tell me. But I guess There is still something wrong, but I can’t save face.”

Gao Yan interjected: “I probably know a little bit about this matter. Your aunt and the two children from your second uncle’s family are both honest people, but they are not highly educated and have limited abilities. It has always been unstable. I heard that the one from your aunt’s family is now working as a salesperson in a shopping mall, and it seems that the one from your second uncle’s family has been delivered by express delivery. I guess they want you to help their son find a more stable job. work.”

Shi Zhongping nodded and said: “Although the relatives in our family are not very close, Shitou, don’t think that this is because the relatives are indifferent. To put it bluntly, our family is at the bottom of society. We don’t have money when we need it.” No matter how free you are, you have no extra time to visit each other after work every day. The situation of their two families is indeed not good. In our family, now that you are successful, if it is not difficult, just think of them. You little one My uncle is here today. I guess he is the kid from his family. Isn’t he about to graduate? For someone with three books, his job will definitely be a problem.”

Shi Lei told his parents what he had discussed with Hu Xiaohua before. Shi Zhongping Frowning, he said: “Son, we are not saying that we must help, but we must do it as long as you are not in trouble. Can they handle it if you set up a company by yourself?” “I think we should

just let you do it. Forget it, my mother is applying for early retirement, she is old anyway. Our company will pay for social security and so on. If we set up a company here, my mother will be in charge, and relatives at home can arrange it. There is no skill in this kind of work, anyway. It’s about hiring a specialized maintenance technician. As for our relatives, as long as they can drive and are willing to put in the effort, it shouldn’t be a big problem. Put your attitude first, we don’t support idlers. If you want to make money, I can arrange it for them, but you have to spend the effort yourself. .”
