70s factory beauty, transform villain cubs to become rich

Chapter 363 Army Day

The next day, Tian Mengya went to the cafeteria early for breakfast. She grabbed Chen Qing and excitedly asked her, "Chen Qing, do you have any plans for this weekend? How about we go to the riverside for some grilled fish?"

"Let's go on a two-day trip?"

"Hey, are you going or not? You can bring He Yuan and your two kids, and our two families can go together."

"I can do it. As for the other three, I'll ask them when I get home."

"Okay, let me know when you've made your decision."

"it is good."

Chen Qing figured Xiao Yu and He Yuxiang would be fine; the two little ones were on summer vacation, and they'd definitely have fun going out to play.

But He Yuan is a different story; if he goes, he'll most likely take his book with him.

One night, she noticed a faint light. When she opened her eyes, she saw He Yuan shining a flashlight into his notebook and writing something.

She didn't disturb them.

I just feel that he might not be doing research for the sake of a status; it's out of true love.

Someone even said that when she was studying at home, he should check on her from time to time, but after studying for 59 minutes, he only gave her one minute.

Every time Chen Qing saw him looking at him, he felt like punching him.

Chen Qing returned to the factory committee for a lunch break. He found that sleeping in the summer was not as comfortable as in the winter. The weather here was hot, and even with a fan, it was still hot. He couldn't fall asleep at all while lying on the table.

She's going to be busy again soon, because the personnel department needs to cooperate with the logistics department to visit and comfort the Red Army soldiers and their families.

Army Day is approaching.

The martial arts competition is about to begin.

Chen Qing also needs to select three hosts to go on stage with her.

As for the seniors to be visited, the personnel department already has a list. This is an important annual project, and Chen Qing has to go in person.

Huang Xinpeng held a meeting with the logistics department, and then handed the meeting results to Chen Qing, saying, "Deputy Director, these are the gifts we have prepared. Please take a look."

Chen Qing took them and looked at them. They were all very practical items: rice, flour, cooking oil, and clothes for them. "Pretty good."

After she and Huang Xinpeng finished tidying up, Chen Qing went to report to Secretary Yang, because Secretary Yang also had to personally go and offer his condolences.

Secretary Yang looked through the proposal Chen Qing had given him and said, "This proposal is quite conventional; it's the same every year."

"What are Secretary Yang's insights?"

"Don't speak in a way that's offensive."

"Don't be so critical," Chen Qing said calmly. "The plan can be changed, but if anything happens, Secretary Yang will definitely be held responsible, right?"

Secretary Yang placed his hands together on the desk: "Deputy Director Chen, I think there's been a misunderstanding between us."

"No, I don't want to listen to anyone's opinion unilaterally." Chen Qing urged, "If you're willing to add some gifts to the list of gifts for our seniors, I'll wholeheartedly agree. If you want to put on some programs, then you can arrange them yourself. I'm very busy."

"Is this the attitude of your factory committee?" "Yes."

"Now we are calling on people to pay attention to those difficult years in the past, and to make everyone understand the sacrifices of our predecessors. It was their hard work that brought us peace today. We should hold a big meeting for them so that the masses can recognize that they are our heroes. Wouldn't Deputy Director Chen be willing to do such a thing?"

Secretary Yang looked at Chen Qing.

Chen Qing looked at him until he looked away before replying, "Then what brilliant idea does Secretary Yang have? I believe that as the secretary of our factory, Secretary Yang must be extremely intelligent and can handle a small praise meeting with ease."

Secretary Yang waited for her to say that, and immediately smiled and said, "Praising our predecessors and the martial arts competition don't conflict. Holding them together will not only save manpower and resources, but it also happens to be Army Day. What do you think?"

Chen Qing pondered for a moment and said, "We can discuss it at the weekly meeting on Monday. If everyone agrees with Secretary Yang's plan, then we will do as you say."

"Is this matter even worth discussing at the conference?"

"This concerns our country's most important predecessors. It's just a Monday meeting. Aren't they even worthy of sitting at the table?"

"Deputy Director Chen really loves to joke." Secretary Yang couldn't understand how a young woman in her early twenties could be so slippery and cunning.

They do things in a very procedural way!

He may seem impulsive, but he doesn't act rashly like a young person at all!
Chen Qing stood up: "Since Secretary Yang is not satisfied with this plan, let's wait until the general meeting to discuss it again."

She got up and left.

I was speechless.

She's a typical office worker who's extremely careful about leaving a record, why are you trying to pull this on her?
Back in his office, Chen Qing pondered again what Secretary Yang intended to do. What was the connection between Army Day and the veterans? What underhanded tricks was he planning to pull?

After much thought, Chen Qing still couldn't figure out what the old fox was up to. The best defense is offense.

So Chen Qing wrote a letter, "Ode to the Secretary of the Machinery Factory," in which he expressed his deep concern for the old man who was still working hard at his post and whose hair had turned white. He hoped that the old man could find a suitable successor to retire and enjoy his old age.

On the surface, the criticism is actually directed at Secretary Yang for failing to select capable individuals. Is it because he doesn't want to, or does he simply want to occupy the position without contributing anything?
After writing the letter, Chen Qing mailed it to the trade union and then went home satisfied.

When she got home, she asked Xiaoyu and He Yuxiang if they wanted to go out and play.

Xiaoyu responded enthusiastically: "Go!"

He Yuxiang's expression was reluctant: "Go ahead."

I was pondering what I should bring to the riverbank.

Comrade He Yuan also said he would go.

Chen Qing: "Okay, then I'll tell Tian Mengya that all four of us will be going, and ask Teacher Lin's friend to prepare our rooms."

“Okay, if we’re going to grill something, we can bring some of our own vegetables, and I can also prepare some seasonings.” He Yuan said as he went to the kitchen to see what was available.

Chen Qing also wanted to eat barbecue; just thinking about the sizzling, oily meat made her mouth water. "Do you have chili powder?"

She felt that eating barbecue without chili powder was soulless.
