My Beloved Super Fierce Wife-Chapter 106: On the first day of work at

"Don’t worry yourself sick, Tangtang’s smart and strong, she won’t have any problems."

"If you’re still concerned, we can visit our daughter in a couple of days."

We might as well bring her the honey.

Li Xiuli also knew she was overthinking, but she couldn’t help it.

Just the thought of her daughter living alone in a rented place was enough to keep her on edge.

Thankfully, Tangtang had grown much stronger, otherwise Xiuli might have worried herself to the point of rushing to the county overnight.

"You’re right, but..."

"Enough with the ’buts.’" Lin Lu interrupted her, "Go to sleep already. If Tangtang knew you were this worried, she probably wouldn’t be able to sleep either."

Li Xiuli sighed deeply, climbed into the kang, pulled the blanket over herself, and closed her eyes.

The next day, six o’clock.

Lin Tang woke up according to her usual biological clock.

Having changed beds last night, she tossed and turned until almost midnight before falling asleep.

Compared to her usual nine o’clock bedtime at home, this was definitely late.

She signed in as soon as she woke up.

Her daily sign-in netted her fifty points.

Besides, having signed in for a full month, the system rewarded her with a lottery draw.

This time, she won a bottle of medicinal wine.

As of now, Lin Tang had quite a collection of good things in her possession.

[Points: 1666]

[System Space: Five kilograms of oil, forty kilograms of flour, forty kilograms of rice, forty kilograms of coarse grains, two packs of White Rabbit Creamy Candy, two cans of Malt Extract, a box of apples, a kilogram of tangerines, a bottle of medicinal wine...]

Skills: Veteran Driver, Novice Pig Farming, the Manufacturing Principle of Tractors.

A set of medical research laboratory equipment.

One sewing machine ticket.

Several sauce-making recipes, spicy sauce, bean sauce, mushroom sauce, meat sauce...]

Having just received the sauce recipes, Lin Tang thought of handing them over to her uncle and suggested setting up a sauce factory in the brigade.

But, without sales channels, packaging materials, or start-up capital, who would bother trying?

It all had to be taken step by step.

With work on her mind, Lin Tang quickly washed her face with adept movements.

After eating an apple and seeing that it was about time, she headed to the factory.

The old gatekeeper smiled when he saw her.

"Oh, it’s the young comrade. You’re really early, aren’t you?"

Lin Tang greeted the elderly man.

"Good morning, grandpa, it’s my first day at work. I was so excited I couldn’t sleep," she half-truthfully explained.

The first day at work, one ought to make a good impression.

The old man understood completely; which comrade wouldn’t be excited about starting a new job?

"The office workers always sign in at the Personnel Department in the morning. Don’t forget, comrade, sign in first then head to the office," the kindly old man reminded.

Lin Tang didn’t know about this.

She smiled gratefully and handed him a small tangerine.

"Thank you, grandpa. Please, enjoy this sweet tangerine."

Lin Tang always disliked owing favors to others.

Although the old man reminded her out of the kindness he felt for the few candies she gave him on the exam day, she believed in returning favors in kind.

The gatekeeper hastened to refuse, "Oh, why so formal?

I just mentioned it in passing. I can’t accept your tangerine.

That’s a luxury item there, keep it for yourself."

You couldn’t even buy those tangerines on the market if you wanted to.

"Please take it, grandpa. Thanks for the reminder, I’m off to work."

Saying this, Lin Tang waved and entered the factory.

The gatekeeper sighed as he watched her leave.

Such a generous young girl.

Following the gatekeeper’s advice, Lin Tang signed in at Personnel, then headed to the Broadcasting Station.

When she arrived, nobody was there yet.

Lin Tang first familiarized herself with the surroundings and cleaned up the office a bit.

She noticed a hot water flask in the office.

Picking it up, she realized it was empty, so she took it out of the office to refill it.

Just as she reached the doorway, she happened to run into a sister who had taken the exam with her.

It was Zhang Yuxiu, an office worker at the administration department.

The woman, upon seeing Lin Tang, showed a gentle smile.

"Oh, it’s you. You’re here early as well," Zhang Yuxiu remarked with a touch of emotion.

No wonder she came first.

Smart and diligent, she truly deserved it.

Lin Tang repeated her excuse, "It’s the first day on the job, naturally I’m excited."

"Yes, landing a job is not easy," Zhang Yuxiu agreed, her expression filled with understanding.

As they spoke, her eyes dimmed for a moment, sadness flickering across her face.

Thinking of her son at the Nursery, the woman’s expression eased.

The tightness in her body relaxed.

Zhang Yuxiu turned to Lin Tang, "My name is Zhang Yuxiu, what about you? We’re colleagues now, so let’s get acquainted."

"Hello, Sister Zhang. My name is Lin Tang. Tang as in crabapple," Lin Tang replied.

Seeing that she was also holding a cup, Lin Tang suggested, "Are you going to fetch water too, Sister Zhang? Let’s go together."

Zhang Yuxiu glanced at the hot water flask in her hand and said nothing.

She simply agreed and walked with Lin Tang toward the factory’s water room.

The water room wasn’t far from the office building.

At a distance, a particularly large boiler caught the eye, with a long sink where several taps were lined up for water collection.

The factory’s welfare was good; a pot of hot water cost just two cents.

After filling their pots, the two women walked back to the office building.

On the way,

Lin Tang suddenly remembered the sign-in notice and kindly reminded Zhang Yuxiu.

"Sister Zhang, I heard we need to sign in at Personnel before starting work at the factory. Have you signed in?"

Zhang Yuxiu was completely unaware of this and replied, "Not yet."

Her face filled with gratitude, "Thank you for reminding me, I’ll go sign in in a bit."

Lin Tang shook her head, thinking nothing of it, and said, "It’s just a reminder, no need for thanks, Sister Zhang."

Being helpful to others is also being helpful to oneself.

Who knew when she herself might encounter a tough situation?

"Regardless, I should thank you," Zhang Yuxiu accepted Lin Tang’s kindness.

She felt a closer bond with the young lady almost a decade her junior. freeweɓnøvel.com

After arriving at the office building, they returned to their respective offices.

Lin Tang, carrying the hot water flask, was back in the office just as the Director of the Broadcasting Station, Du Xiaojuan, arrived.

Seeing her, Du Xiaojuan smiled, her eyes betraying an inexplicable satisfaction.

"You’re early. You cleaned the office, didn’t you? Thank you, that must have been tiresome."

A young employee with both initiative and efficiency was always extra likable.

As a subordinate, Lin Tang naturally responded with a polite smile, "It’s nothing. I arrived early and there was nothing else to do."

Du Xiaojuan pointed to an empty desk, "You can sit here, this will be your desk from now on."

"If there’s anything you need, just go to the next room and sign it out."

Lin Tang nodded, "Alright, thank you, Director Du."

"You’re welcome," Du Xiaojuan said with a kind smile.

"...Aside from you and me, the Broadcasting Station has an editor, an announcer, a technician, and an external lines worker."

"We have few people but a lot of work. You’re new, so take some time to get used to things, you’ll be busy soon enough."

She gave Lin Tang a little forewarning.

They may have it better than those in the factory, but they had no shortage of tasks.

Lin Tang thanked her leader.

She had just spoken when the other Broadcasting Station colleagues arrived.

"Good morning, Director Du!"

"Director Du, you came pretty early today."

"Is this the new colleague? Good morning to the new colleague too."

Those who could become office workers had high ideological standards, and they genuinely admired those with education.
