Sun Mei was very happy and laughed: "That's right, my brothers and sisters are all real people, since they are real people, we should treat them in the city." ”

Sun Mei's siblings have very gentle personalities, almost exactly the same as her, but they are not as good as Niu Dazhuang's younger brothers and sisters, so they give people a feeling that they don't have much interest.

Sun Mei had long wanted to take care of them, but because of Niu Xiaoqiang's rigorous work attitude, she couldn't speak. Now taking advantage of the good mood, Sun Mei directly said what was in her heart: "Mi'er, your old watches have performed very well in the factory this year, do you consider promoting them?"

Niu Xiaoqiang was embarrassed: "As long as they really perform well, they can be promoted through the post competition system, if I interfere, it will break the rules of the factory, and it will be difficult to manage in the future." ”

Niu Dazhuang also persuaded: "Our son is right, the management of the factory is very important, once the rules are broken, it will take more effort to correct them in the future, so don't embarrass your son." ”

Sun Mei is also tentatively mentioning it, not that she will not give up until she reaches her goal. She nodded: "I just said it casually, if you have a chance, take care of it, and forget it if you don't have a chance." ”

This is the first time Sun Mei has said this, Niu Xiaoqiang looked at the wrinkles on his mother's face and the white hair on her sideburns, and couldn't help but feel soft in her heart, and said with a smile: "Mom, if it's not like this, tomorrow while they come to congratulate the second sister, I will take the time to inspect them, if they do have that ability, I will promote and reuse them separately." ”

It is unlikely that Niu Xiaoqiang will promote these old watches to the top management of his own factory, which is not to say that he favors one over the other, and is willing to take care of his family but not relatives.

The reason why Niu Xiaoqiang promoted his family was because he knew them very well, knew that they were very sensible, and would never use his power to bully others, let alone violate the rules of the factory to benefit himself because it was his family.

As for the old cousins on his mother's side, Niu Xiaoqiang didn't know much, and because of this, he didn't make special arrangements for these people.

Growing up so big, Niu Xiaoqiang has not had in-depth contact with any old cousin or cousin. He used to be a fool, and no one wanted to play with him, but then he was so busy earning money that he didn't have time to make friends with these relatives. So to this day, he is not even familiar with the faces of these people, so it is naturally impossible to promote and reuse them.

Sun Mei looked very happy: "Okay, okay, I will definitely inform them tomorrow and let them accept your assessment!"

Niu Xiaoqiang stood up, took the rice bowl to the bucket and cleaned it, and then prepared to find something to do. Before he could find out what was going on, several distant relatives came together.

Among them is an old acquaintance of Niu Xiaoqiang, who is the uncle and grandfather who came to attend the eldest sister's wedding last year.

Uncle and grandfather came with Niu Xiuying, and in addition to the two of them, there were four other people. Among them, there was a middle-aged man standing next to Niu Xiuying, who had only one arm, and the other sleeve hung empty in the air, swaying back and forth with his walking pace.

Niu Xiaoqiang vaguely remembered this person's face, and combined with the fact that he was missing an arm, he immediately determined that this person was Niu Xiuying's father.

He hurriedly greeted him, took out the Hongtashan cigarettes used to entertain guests from his pocket, gave one to each of the men, and then greeted everyone with a smile: "Hello uncle and grandfather, good uncle, these people forgive me for being clumsy, Yingzi, you can help me introduce it." ”

Yingzi hurriedly stepped forward: "This is my uncle, this is my third uncle, and this is the eldest son of my uncle's family." ”

Yingzi and Niu Xiaoqiang's family are not too close, but the relationship between the two families is very good, Niu Xiaoqiang treats their family very politely, and even treats her uncle and uncle very politely.

He greeted the three of them one by one very politely, and then welcomed the group into the house and made tea for each of them.

Niu Dazhuang went to the toilet just now, and when he came out, he heard that the uncle was coming, so he hurriedly ran into the house to say hello.

After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, the uncle and grandfather glanced at Yingzi's father, and Yingzi's father immediately understood, took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Niu Dazhuang: "Da Zhuang, this is a little bit of heart from our whole family to the second girl, you can accept it quickly." ”

The conditions of Yingzi's family were originally very poor, if she hadn't found a job in the Asia Machinery Factory, I am afraid that their family would still be struggling to make ends meet.

Niu Dazhuang pushed the red envelope back: "Second child, your family's life has just improved, so you don't need to give gifts, just get your heart." ”

Yingzi's father insisted on giving gifts, but he only had one hand, and he couldn't compete with Niu Dazhuang, and finally his uncle and grandfather spoke: "Da Zhuang, our family can have all rely on Xiaoqiang's care today, yesterday Yingzi was also rated as an outstanding worker, got a motorcycle, compared to these, what is the gift money we give If you don't accept it, it is to look down on our family." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang heard the words and persuaded him: "Dad, the gift money still has to be received, otherwise it will be unruly, if you don't want to go, it is better to send a red envelope to Yingzi, so that the problem can be solved." ”

In China, face is a very important issue, if Niu Dazhuang does not accept gifts, it is not to give face to his uncle and grandfather, it is easy to hurt people's self-esteem, and good intentions do bad things.

The method proposed by Niu Xiaoqiang solves the problems of both sides very well, and everyone can get by on face, which is very appropriate.

Niu Dazhuang listened to Niu Xiaoqiang's advice, put the red package into his pocket, and then took out another red envelope and handed it to Yingzi: "Yingzi, this red envelope contains New Year's money, you must accept it, if you don't accept it, you will look down on me as an elder." ”

Yingzi looked at his grandfather with some embarrassment, and his uncle smiled bitterly: "Before I came, I knew that this gift money was not easy to give away, so it's just that, Yingzi, you can accept it." ”

The gift money given by Yingzi's family is ten yuan, which is definitely a lot of money in today's rural areas. Generally, people give wedding gifts for only a few cents, and those who are very close will only give two or three yuan.

Niu Dazhuang's New Year's red envelope contained fifty yuan, which is equivalent to a worker's monthly salary, and the Yingzi family not only did not lose money when they came to give gifts, but also earned forty yuan, which is a very cost-effective deal.

Fortunately, everyone already knew that Niu Xiaoqiang had won a huge reward of 100,000 yuan, so Yingzi's family was quickly relieved.
