122 Farewell (Part 1)
On Monday afternoon, Jiang Zhihan met the candidate recommended by Aunt Huang, Cheng Yilan, who used to be a sales manager for a metal import and export company. Cheng Yilan kept her short ears, not the kind of person who wrote her shrewdness on her face. After talking to her for a few minutes, Jiang Zhihan realized that she was a woman with concise, clear logic, and full of confidence.
Cheng Yilan had already met Li Rongrong and Xiao Hanjun in the morning, and talked a lot in detail and was very interested in the exhibition of this small company. Now he finally met the older mature high school student who was the legendary helm for the company. He was inevitably curious. While Jiang Zhihan was observing her, she was also observing Jiang Zhihan. Jiang Zhihan talked about the planning, feasibility, prospects, and possible obstacles of the company's new project, with a novel perspective, clear organization, and full of confidence.
The two sat in Xiao Hanjun's office and talked for about half an hour, and were quite satisfied with each other. Finally, Cheng Yilan said that she needed to think about it for two days, and that Jiang Zhihan might also need a decision process.
Jiang Zhihan thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, Aunt Huang will be one of the shareholders of the company in the future, so Aunt Cheng, you are not an outsider. Even if you decide not to join the company in the end, you can be an advisor for us. I don't think so. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, we will have some negotiations with the school and the streets on wall demolition and house decoration. If you have time and are willing, you can join. If you participate in the project in person, you can have a more intuitive understanding of the company's prospects and you can also get to know each other with several other main persons in charge of the company. There are not many business secrets here, so you don't have to worry about this. And as I said, as Aunt Huang's friend, it's good to come on her behalf."
Cheng Yilan thought for a moment and agreed. Jiang Zhihan asked her to make an appointment with Xiao Hanjun to exchange the preparations in advance. After seeing Cheng Yilan off, Jiang Zhihan asked Xiao Hanjun about his impression and received a very positive evaluation.
Jiang Zhihan said to Xiao Hanjun: "I am going to let her participate in some recent interviews. You'd better assign her a more specific but not too heavy thing, which is also a mutual interview between the two parties in a sense. If both parties are satisfied, you can consider the work arrangements."
Xiao Hanjun suggested: "Based on her resume and today's impression, I think it's better to let her lead the project overall."
Jiang Zhihan said: "It's too early to say this, I think you'll take the lead. If she has the ability and willingness to join us, she can put more burdens on her."
After finishing her conversation with Xiao Hanjun, Jiang Zhihan went straight to the bookstore. When she arrived at the bookstore, Jiang Zhihan asked about her mother's opinion on Cheng Yilan, and the feedback she received was also very good. Li Rongrong roughly talked about her thoughts. Although Jiang Zhihan asked Principal Ning and Vice Principal Wen to invest in the shares, she felt that there were too many concessions at first, and now she basically agreed with Jiang Zhihan's approach.
After a few business matters, Li Rongrong said: "Today, Grandpa Yang called the bookstore and asked you to go to his place if you have time tonight. If it is too late, go early tomorrow morning."
Jiang Zhihan thought that his master rarely called him to go, and speculated that there might be something urgent. But he had only been to his house the night before yesterday and didn't listen to him. Jiang Zhihan had dinner in the store, ate a box lunch, and bid farewell to his mother and rushed to Mr. Yang's house.
After the old lady escaped from danger, she stayed in the hospital for another week and was observed. This was her first heart attack. Generally speaking, the first time she had a heart attack was often the most dangerous because she was not prepared. Fortunately, her family was around when she was sick, and Ni Shang's home was quite close to the emergency center, so the rescue was very timely. After that, as long as you are more vigilant, it should not be a big problem to carry first aid medicines with you.
Since her grandmother was hospitalized, her mother has a cold face and has never had a good expression to her father. Ni Shang didn't know what she had given birth to, but just speculated that her grandmother was hospitalized and her mother was in a bad mood, so she didn't think it was an abnormal thing.
After my grandmother was discharged from the hospital, she stayed at Ni Shang's house for a few more days and asked to go back to her hometown. Ni Shang's grandmother's hometown is a county town about ten hours away. In her hometown, her grandmother actually had an empty building with several relatives there. My grandmother said that the air in her hometown is fresh and the population is far less crowded than Zhongzhou, so it should be a good place for recuperation. In addition, after walking on the line of life and death, she suddenly began to miss the place where she was born and raised, and the idea of falling leaves returning to her roots was raised.
Since she was hospitalized, her grandmother's temper has become softer and she is more kind to Ni Shang. When she heard that she was leaving, Ni Shang felt very reluctant to let go. Although sometimes when her grandmother talked badly about her father, Ni Shang felt very unfair for her father, her grandmother has always been very nice to her. Even her father has educated her since childhood. She has not made any mistakes, but only unfilial children. She should always be grateful to her parents, think more about their kindness, and not care too much about minor mistakes.
What surprised Ni Shang was that her mother asked to take leave and accompany her grandmother to live in the county town for a while. Bai Bingyan's work in the Cultural Bureau has always been idle, and she is close to her leaders. It is not an accident that she can take leave. But over the years, her mother has been taking care of the trivial matters at home and abroad. Ni Shang really never imagined what life would be like when her mother left.
Ni Shang held Bai Bingyan's hand and asked anxiously: "How long will you go?"
Bai Bingyan stroked her daughter's head and said lovingly: "It's possible that I'll take two weeks off first. If your grandmother is fine, I'll be back with peace of mind. If her physical condition is not very good, it's possible for me to stay for a while."
My mother was going to accompany my grandmother who had just recovered from a serious illness. As soon as she performed her filial piety, Ni Shang couldn't say anything against her. However, her grandmother was just sick and her mother was going to travel far again. She always felt that everything was not going well at home recently, which made her a little upset.
Bai Bingyan took Ni Shang's hand and said, "For so many years, I have never left you alone in the distance. So, the only thing I don't worry about is you. Your father... He doesn't know how to cook and doesn't take care of housework. These days I have been wronged that you eat more of the school cafeteria. I have heard you say several times. The food in the school cafeteria is much better now than before, right? Alas... Xiao Shang, you have grown up, and have been so sensible, so obedient, and so well-behaved since childhood. All my mother's hopes are placed on you. If it weren't for you... From childhood to adulthood, your father taught you more when he taught you, but his love for you is no less than him. Do you know?"
Ni Shang nodded vigorously. His mother's words were too serious, which was a bit like a separation from life and death, which made her feel very uneasy. She said, "Mom, don't worry about going to accompany her grandmother. I hope her health can return to her previous illness as soon as possible. I heard from the doctor that as long as you pay more attention and take good care of it, this disease is actually not so dangerous. After you leave, don't worry about me. Anyway, several meals a day can be solved at school. I'm seventeen years old, so what can't be done? Didn't you say that when you were seventeen years old, you did everything by yourself? Although I am not as good as you, basic daily cooking is still not a problem."
Bai Bingyan returned to the bedroom, Ni Jianguo closed the bedroom door, signaled her to sit on the bed, walked to his wife, and said, "When I was in the hospital, that sentence was not my original intention, but I just blurted out. I apologize to you about this matter, and you will forgive me if you want to do it. If you say it, I can do whatever you want. Or, let the old lady stay with us for another year, see if my actions are good? No matter what, you can't leave my daughter and I in Zhongzhou, and you will leave for half a month."
Bai Bingyan sneered, "If you live for another year, you curse her every day, and she may not have long life. You don't have to say so much to me. At this time, maybe we need to separate and calm down and think about our future plans. In the past twenty years, you are the one who loves Ni Shang the most. Have you cooked for her once? Have you washed clothes once? I have left in the past half month, and I don't expect you to cook and wash clothes. I just hope that one can take good care of her. I have nothing to worry about. You have always taken good care of yourself, and I am more free when I leave. You can do whatever you want."
Ni Jianguo waved his hand and said angrily: "What do you mean by holding a gun and a stick? If you have anything, just say it."
Bai Bingyan glanced at him coldly and said, "You didn't do anything, why are you so excited? I'm just talking casually. Didn't they say that they never do bad things in their lives, and aren't they surprised to knock on the door in the middle of the night?" He pulled open the quilt and went to bed by himself.
