The sky is cloudy and the temperature has plummeted. The air was a little damp this morning, but it didn't bring the coolness that summer would like, but the stickiness was even more uncomfortable. It's going to rain. Neighbors took precautions and began to put away their undried clothes.

Li Jing was unwilling, for fear of when it would rain. When I got up, I began to take back the clothes that I had washed and cooled last night back at home and hang them next to the cupboard. It just so happened that he ran into the neighbor's shy sister Xiao Yang, who Xiao Nan was familiar with. When she saw Li Jingjing, she was stunned. And in Li Jingjing's polite sentence of 'collect clothes', she blushed slightly and nodded in an inaudible voice, and answered Li Jingjing's words that Li Jingjing couldn't hear clearly, and quickly slipped back into the room.

Li Jingjing, who was in place, was amused and helpless for a while, how could there be such a shy girl? He couldn't help but wonder where such a girl worked... He has the impression that most girls of this age are working in clothing stores, large companies, how many people do you have to contact to work in this kind of place? Seeing her like this, the boss has to open her...

Fortunately, it didn't rain in the morning, Li quietly bought a breakfast for Xiao Nan, and told her, "Don't go to Uncle Lu's to play when it rains, if you want to go, you have to go before it rains", grabbed a steamed bun, nibbled and went to work.

Downstairs, the old Zhang Kee Hotel has been replaced with a brand-new and shiny stove, which looks worth a lot of money. The man surnamed Lu smiled and greeted Li Jingjing who was walking on the way to work, and the crowd of students and office workers began to crowd up, for Li Jingjing, this was a new day as calm as before.

Entering the factory early, Li Jingjing found the bald director and asked for leave after the roll call. Li Jingjing knows that it is really inappropriate to take leave for only a few days after going to work, not to mention that it will reduce the salary income paid on the 15th of the next month. But Xiao Nan's words before going to bed last night made him really feel a little relieved, like the doctor said, work is important, but how can children be important?

"Take the child to the doctor.."

The bald director frowned, this was a request he couldn't refuse, and he said embarrassedly, "Is the child seriously ill?"

"It's just that the first few days are uncomfortable. I take care of the children alone, usually always work overtime, I don't have time to spend with the children, I'm afraid that I won't take care of anything, I don't notice... So—" Li quietly stopped. He made it clear that he didn't have a wife, and avoided the superfluous explanation that the director might give him, 'Can't you let your wife take her to the doctor?'

The bald director was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke, "Look at it, can it be delayed for two days?" I received an urgent order in the past two days, I said it during the roll call just now, I'm afraid the workshop will be busy until it gets off work late in the past two days... If you came to me yesterday, I will give you approval immediately, and I will not hesitate at all, after all, it is important for children to see a doctor. ”

Speaking of which, he said earnestly, "There is a shortage of people in the main workshop. Your job is very important, and you are indispensable for the time being. Think about it, if the list is done in the past two days, you can get dozens of more commissions, let's go out to work, isn't it just to make some money? Well, the child may be suffering from heat stroke, this kind of problem is not big, and it is generally enough to take some medicine. So be it... If I don't give you approval, you try to stick to the last two days of the month, although you only work for ten days this month, but in the next month, I will give you 30 yuan for full attendance, okay?"

The director patted Li Jingjing on the shoulder again, "Work hard, work harder." "Turn around and go.

“....”

Li was silent in place, for a long time, he sighed lightly, if he didn't approve, no matter what, it would be impossible to leave. Unless it is absenteeism, 50 yuan will be deducted for that day. And maybe he's going to be expelled... He can't afford to lose his job because of this.

Depressed, he returned to the machine.

He didn't hide his emotions much, but Feng Qiong saw it in his eyes. From Li Jingjing to the workshop director and then the process of being lost....

"What's wrong?" Feng Qiong asked.

"The child is sick and wants to take the child to the doctor, but the leave is not granted. Li quietly smiled bitterly. When Feng Qiong asked why he didn't approve it, Li Jingjing truthfully recounted the director's words.

"It's a shame that he is embarrassed to say such a high-sounding word, and he looks good to you. Feng Qiong said with cold eyes, "Saying that the child is important, I want you to stay... It's not a thing. Then he looked indignant: "How can our factory be so anxious to produce? Recently, there have been a lot of goods, and he wants us to produce more, so that when he reports at the end of the month, he will ask for credit from the leader!"

“...”

Shaking his head, Li quietly and silently began to work.

He didn't want to discuss this topic anymore, Feng Qiong's voice was not small, and many colleagues heard it. If some rumors spread to the bald director, it would not be a good thing for him and Feng Qiong.

In this way, Li Jing stayed up until noon, he quickly rushed to the canteen and asked for a staff meal of two yuan, greedily swept into his stomach, and left the factory.

The air was a little humid, but it was much better than the scorching sun of the previous day. He followed yesterday's route to the health center and asked about the end of work.

"8 o'clock. 8 p.m. The middle-aged doctor said lightly: "This is the latest time." Are you going to bring the children back in the evening?" he obviously recognized Li Jingjing, who had been here yesterday.

"Doctor... Can you, later? My child said last night that she had a headache during the day, and although she took the medicine at night, she didn't say that she was uncomfortable, but I was really afraid that there was a problem, after all, the head was uncomfortable continuously, maybe there was a real problem. ”

Li Jing paused, took a sip of the water that was given to him, and then said, "Today, I asked the factory for leave, but they didn't approve it, I have no problem, and I can't be absent from work." I'm far away from home, and I've got to get off work late these two days, and I'm afraid it's going to be 8 o'clock back and forth...", he begged sincerely, "So... Can you... A little later, just a little. ”

The doctor stared at Li quietly for a long time, and then he nodded in agreement.

Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief, since he couldn't ask for leave, he had to find this way. Xiao Nan is more important than going to work, isn't it? What does he go to work to earn money? Isn't it just to let the two of them eat well and live well... Delay for a few more days, there is a real problem, what should I do?

Lee's plan is very good.

Work hard, do it faster, get better... In this way, I can go back earlier and take Xiaonan to see a doctor. If it's really late, take the bus and get in time. But the development of things is completely different from what he thought, I don't know how much output the bald director of the workshop gave the team leader, when this night came, the sunset was swallowed by dark clouds, and the sky was full of stars, and it was not yet time to get off work.
