Age: Passionate youth, starting from graduation assignment

Chapter 282 Give Ding Xiawei a guarantee

At this time, Zhu Wei and Yu Yingzi completed their registration and walked out of the room. Not long after, Shen Danrui also came out.

More and more people were queuing outside the house, and everyone was amazed after seeing it.

"In our area alone, there are at least five to six hundred people."

Zhu Wei took one look at the huge crowd of people and sighed to Xu Jichang.

Shen Danrui echoed from the side: "That's not true. People are coming one after another in the afternoon. Even a thousand people can't stop us."

"Thousands of troops crossed the single-plank bridge."

Yu Yingzi interrupted.

Xu Jichang remained silent and walked to the intersection with the girls and parted ways.

However, Xu Jichang did not go to the company with Yu Yingzi immediately, but sent Du Xiaojing home first.

He was afraid that Du Xiaojing would feel uncomfortable now.

"You go to the unit."

Halfway through the road, Du Xiaojing stopped and said, "I'm not a child, I won't get lost."

"Okay, then don't feel depressed."

Xu Ji saw the situation and warned.

Du Xiaojing shook his head: "I'm not uncomfortable, I just figured it out."

"If you don't pass the exam this year, you can take the exam next year."

"I keep failing the exam, so I just go to work."

Xu Ji saw that Du Xiaojing was so open-minded, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not like I will always fail the exam."

"Besides, given our family's conditions, it's okay if you don't work."

Du Xiaojing made a face: "I can't keep relying on myself."

"It would be shameless to spread it out like that."

"What's the point of talking about face with me?"

Xu Jichang smiled and patted Du Xiaojing on the shoulder, turned around and walked back to the company.

At this moment, the Pioneer Distribution Company is full of learning atmosphere.

Several salesmen, including Yu Yingzi, were holding books and reading. It was not until Xu Jichang entered the office that they quickly put the books away.

Xu Jichang pretended not to see it, simply asked the salesmen a few questions and left.

Everyone has aspirations.

Although the salary provided by Pioneer Distribution Company is high, it cannot prevent many people from wanting to receive higher education.

Not to mention that he also signed up for the college entrance examination.

……

When Xu Jichang went home at night, he just entered the yard and saw the bedroom light was on.

Needless to say, it goes without saying that Du Xiaojing must be cramming and studying hard.

When I entered the room, I saw Du Xiaojing holding a dictionary under the desk lamp and trying to memorize words.

Hearing Xu Jichang's footsteps, Du Xiaojing put down his book and looked at him: "Let's study together."

"Well, I also have to memorize words."

Xu Jichang sat down next to her, picked up another dictionary and started reading.

When the college entrance examination was just resumed, the English was very simple, and the vocabulary requirements were very low, probably equivalent to the English level of junior high school.

However, for the vast majority of students, English is still a big problem because they simply do not have the conditions to learn it.

I am very lucky to be able to get a dictionary, let alone a textbook.

Xu Jichang memorized it with Du Xiaojing until late at night, during which time he also answered several of Du Xiaojing's inquiries.

"Go to sleep, it's too late."

Xu Jichang raised his wrist and saw that the pointer on the mechanical watch was pointing to twelve o'clock, so he said to Du Xiaojing.

Du Xiaojing shook his head: "Go to sleep and I'll learn more."

"Yeah. Then you can learn slowly."

Xu Jicheng didn't act reluctantly, so he got up and went outside to soak his feet.

I hope that for her hard work in the end, there will be a good result.

Before going to bed, Xu Jichang thought it would be great if he could find a tutor for Du Xiaojing.

In fact, the most suitable candidate is himself, but he is too busy and cannot spare the time.

The next morning, Xu Jichang woke up and thought about it, and decided to go find Ding Xiawei.

"Would you like me to help Du Xiaojing with his homework?"

After hearing Xu Jichang's request, Ding Xiawei looked a little unexpected, "But I'm not familiar with her."

"Just do me a favor, Sister Ding. If she fails the exam, I'll feel bad."

In an office of Dongfang Fertilizer Factory, Xu Jichang asked Ding Xiawei unyieldingly.

Seeing his persistence, Ding Xiawei had no choice but to agree: "Okay, but I have graduated many years ago and have forgotten many knowledge points."

"I can't guarantee the outcome."

"Look at you for being so humble."

Xu Jichang happily took out the keychain and handed it to Ding Xiawei, "Come to my house whenever you are free. Du Xiaojing has been studying hard during this period and should always be at home."

Ding Xiawei took the key helplessly, looked at Xu Jichang and sighed: "I helped you at first, but now I want to help your wife."

The resentment in these words is simply too obvious.

Xu Jichang spread his hands in embarrassment: "I know you are a good person."

There is no such thing as a good person card these days, but Ding Xiawei still felt weird after hearing this.

Is this... really praising her?

"Hey. When are you free, let's have a nice chat."

After thinking for a long time, Ding Xiawei stared at Xu Jichang with a bit of complexity in her eyes.

Xu Jichang's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Ding Xiawei: "I'm free now, why is it inconvenient for you?"

"Well, let's talk somewhere else."

Ding Xiawei said.

Xu Jichang knew in his heart that she wanted to find him for personal matters.

"Then after get off work tonight, you go to the distribution company to find me, and we can find a place to chat?"

"Ok."

After making an appointment, Xu Jichang left Ding Xiawei's office and walked downstairs after work in the evening.

At the door of the company, Ding Xiawei was waiting for him with a bag in her hand.

"Miss Ding."

Xu Jichang waved to Ding Xiawei.

Ding Xiawei came up to us: "Well, where are we going?"

"You decide."

"Then go to my house?"

"Okay. I haven't been to your new home yet, so I just want to go check it out."

While talking, Xu Jichang was led forward by Ding Xiawei, and soon he came to the front of a compound.

After taking two steps into the yard, Ding Xiawei led Xu Jichang up to a unit building, and finally stopped in front of a door on the fourth floor.

Ding Xiawei took out the key and opened the door, only to see two rooms and one living room inside.

"It was originally a welfare house for university employees. I saw someone was in a hurry to sell, so I bought one."

Ding Xiawei introduced him.

“Very good, spacious and bright.”

Xu Jichang nodded and said, "How much did it cost?"

"It cost 6000. I borrowed some from my colleagues."

Ding Xiawei smiled.

Xu Jichang was surprised: "Then why didn't you tell me?"

"Aren't you already married? I think..."

"Take it." Xu Jichang didn't wait for Ding Xiawei to finish explaining. He took out two thousand yuan from the inner pocket of his coat and put it on the living room table: "Is it enough? I'll get it when I get home."

Ding Xiawei quickly picked up the money and wanted to send it back: "Oh, I really don't need it."

Xu Jichang blocked it with his hands: "I have many sources of money now, so I am not short of this."

"I'll let you know when I need the money."

"No, this is not possible. You are married now..."

Ding Xiawei still refused and wanted to return the money to Xu Jichang.

"It's okay, it's really okay."

Xu Jichang spent a lot of effort to stop Ding Xiawei and did not let her pay back the money successfully.

Ding Xiawei had no choice but to accept the money reluctantly and turned around to make a pot of good tea for Xu Jichang.

"It was given to me by someone else, but I haven't been willing to drink it."

In front of the mist rising from the tea, Ding Xiawei looked at Xu Jichang with eyes also filled with mist.

"Well, just the smell is nice."

Xu Jichang affirmed, looking at Ding Xiawei as well, "Sister Ding came to see me specifically today. What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I just want to talk to you."

Ding Xiawei looked away from Xu Jichang and tried to look more relaxed, "You know, I am also 30 this year..."

"Ah."

Xu Jichang understood the meaning of her words and cast his gaze out the window.

Outside the window, the sun was about to set, looking a little depressed amidst the whistling wind.

Everyone has to think about their own future and have their own thoughts.

He can promise Ding Xiawei that he will be good to her and be responsible for her life. The question is, should Ding Xiawei believe in herself unconditionally?

Xu Jichang shook his head inwardly: Life is too long, and no one dares to [-]% believe that a person will not change his mind in the next forty or fifty years.

After thinking for a long time, Xu Jichang gave a formal reply: "I will give you the money tomorrow, you take it first."

"If you want, we can have a baby."

Ding Xiawei was stunned: having a child with Xu Jichang was her ideal ending.

But she didn't expect that Xu Jichang would take the initiative to say these words and do so happily.

"No need for money, just having children."

Ding Xiawei agreed, "I will raise the child by myself and will not cause you any more troubles."

"Look at what this says, can I leave my own child alone?"

Xu Jichang smiled and said, "Look at Zhijun and Runsu, I don't care about any of their children."

"As for money, just think of it as giving it to your children. You will need a lot of money to raise your children in the future."

After dinner at Ding Xiawei's house, Xu Jichang set off home.

Having a baby with Ding Xiawei is just a preliminary intention, and there is still a long way to go before the final implementation.

After all, she is single now and works in a fertilizer factory. Once she gets pregnant, she will be in trouble and must consider many details.

Saying this today can be regarded as stabilizing Ding Xiawei's mentality and leaving room for long-term planning in the future.

Back home, Du Xiaojing was studying again as expected.

"I found a tutor for you, a college student from the 60s."

After entering the room, Xu Jichang walked behind Du Xiaojing, put his hand on her shoulder and said, "And you also know this person."

Du Xiaojing turned his head: "Is it Ding Xiawei?"

"Smart. Looking at your reaction, I'm sure you can get into college."

"...There are not many college students in the fertilizer factory."

"Uh, that's right. Anyway, I've already given her the key. When she's free later, she'll come to help you with your homework. Remember to respect her when the time comes."

"Okay, my impression is that Ding Xiawei is quite nice."

While talking to Du Xiaojing, Xu Jichang had already sat down at the table, took out a math problem book and started practicing.

The next morning, Xu Jichang took the initiative to go to Dongfang Fertilizer Factory and informed Director Gao that he had signed up for the college entrance examination.

"You've officially signed up, right?"

After hearing this, Director Gao nodded and said, "Then I wish you a gold medal."

"As for the subsequent candidate for the manager of Pioneer Distribution Company, I would also like to seek your opinion."

"When it comes to subsequent candidates, the leaders must have a more accurate vision than I do, so I won't recommend them."

Xu Jichang was not sure whether Director Gao was being polite or sincere, so he shook his head and said.

After all, it is a major matter related to the selection of the top leader of the affiliated unit. Even if there is a teacher-student relationship between the two, they still have to have a sense of boundaries.

You can't just ask the factory manager and just climb up the pole yourself.

Director Gao waved his hand and leaned his upper body slightly forward: "You're welcome. You have worked in the distribution company for so long, and you have a deep understanding of the nature and daily operations of the company. It is necessary for me to absorb your opinions on the subsequent appointment of managers. "

Xu Jijian met Director Gao sincerely asking questions, and then he confessed his inner thoughts: "I can't talk about opinions, I just want to express my thoughts."

"A distribution company ultimately makes money by opening up the market. People who act vigorously and resolutely will not be qualified for the position of manager."

"After much thought, I think Comrade Ding Xiawei should be the best candidate for the manager's position. She is relatively gentle. She once served as the deputy director of the factory's logistics department, has dealt with many material supply companies, and has experience in external dealings. "

"Oh. It's the Ding Xiawei who used to be in the factory organization department and was later transferred to the logistics department, right..."

Factory Director Gao said as if he was remembering something, "I remember she and you are in the same production team?"

"Don't avoid relatives when you are inside."

Xu Jichang said calmly.

"Okay. I will highlight your suggestions to everyone at the factory leadership meeting."

Director Gao listened.

"Yeah. There is also a possibility that I won't be able to get into college, and today's conversation will be all invalid."

Xu Jichang made a joke.

Director Gao shook his head extremely seriously: "No, you will definitely pass the exam."

"From what I know about you, you can get high marks on the exam."

"Borrowing my uncle Gao's good words."

Xu Jichang said, stood up and turned to leave the factory director's office.

Downstairs in the office, the autumn breeze is stronger.

Xu Jichang wrapped his coat tightly and looked up at the gloomy sky: judging from this situation, it might be raining.

If it rains at this temperature, it will be really cold.

Xu Jichang quickened his pace and returned to the distribution company. As soon as he entered the office, the world changed.

But what fell was not rain, but snowflakes.

The first snow of 1977 has arrived.

Xu Jichang looked out the window and thought in his heart.

The thoughts in his mind were a bit complicated at the moment: applying for college was of course his plan from the very beginning after time travel.

Just leaving the familiar work environment and going to a brand new place made him feel strange in his heart.

"What, why are you in a daze?"

Seeing him staring out the window for a long time, Fang Runsu couldn't help but joked, "Who are you thinking about again?"

Xu Jichang came to his senses and looked away: "With you here, who can I miss?"

Fang Runsu smiled: "I don't believe it."

"By the way, I heard from Yingzi that you plan to sign up for the college entrance examination. Is this true?"

"It's true, I want to go to college."

Xu Jichang answered honestly, "If I hadn't gone to college, I would have felt that I was missing something."

"That's right. It's always good to learn more about culture."

Fang Runsu agreed, "It's just that once you leave, you don't know who the factory will send to take care of us."

Xu Jichang was also silent: he just recommended Ding Xiawei to Director Gao today, and he was not sure whether it would be adopted in the end.

He also hopes that the factory can send the right person to the Pioneer Distribution Company as a manager, so as to avoid being inhumane and causing the company to become a mess.
