Chapter XXIX: End of Maternity Leave

After the "May Day", Lin Meihui is going to work in the group. One is that the maternity leave has been completed, and the other is that the art troupe is about to be disbanded.

Metallurgical construction staff art troupe is the product of the planned economy, with the gradual deepening of reform and opening up, the metallurgical construction market competition is becoming more and more fierce, the economic benefits of the metallurgical construction group in the past two years are not as good as before, in the group staff congress, there are staff representatives raised the question of whether the art troupe is necessary to retain. Considering the issue of personnel placement, the party committee of the group has not yet made a decision to dissolve the art troupe, but proposed to limit its development and gradually digest the existing personnel. Not long ago, the old head of the regiment retired, and the deputy head Che Jun proposed to Mr. Nie that the whole regiment flopped into a tertiary production company, distributing various industrial and civilian commodities, and the enterprises, employees and their families of the Metallurgical Construction Group is a stable market, which is also catering to the general trend of the whole people doing business and running enterprises, which can not only digest the existing employees of the art troupe, but also place the children of the group employees. Mr. Nie felt that Che Jun's idea was very feasible, so he raised this topic at the party committee of the group, and the result was unanimously approved by everyone. Therefore, the art troupe is now in a state of shock, no longer undertaking performance tasks, but planning to establish the metallurgical construction group tertiary industry company.

When Lin Meihui was on maternity leave, she heard the comrades in the regiment come to her house to talk about it, but she didn't expect things to progress so quickly.

In the evening, Zhong Shan came home from work, and Lin Meihui had already prepared dinner. Meihui's dinner is just simple dishes such as rice cooker cooking rice, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, etc., because the shrimp crawler is the season on the market, and when the pusher goes to the vegetable market during the day, he buys back two catties by the way, so there is another steamed shrimp crawler on the table tonight. When Zhong Shan entered the house, he smelled the smell of seafood and said with a smile: "Chef Lin has cooked seafood today!" As he spoke, he went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and picked up Zixing, who was so angry that he cried because his mother was busy making dinner and was not cared for.

Zhong Shan held Zixing high, and before Zixing's tears were dry, he giggled. Zhong Shan took out a jumping frog from his briefcase, filled it with clockwork, and put it on the floor leather to jump, Zixing broke free from his father's embrace and crawled behind the jumping frog. Meihui said that the underground is not cool, and the father is careless.

At the dinner table, Zhong Shan hugged Zixing and could only eat with one hand.

While peeling shrimp for Zhong Shan, Meihui said: "Our art troupe is going to flop and become a tertiary company." I don't want to sell anything, I still love to sing, you know, being an actor has been my dream since I was a kid. You go home and talk to your father, use his old connections, and see if you can transfer me to the city's song and dance troupe. ”

Zhong Shan said: "Tomorrow is Sunday, let's go back, I didn't go back last week because I was busy with work, and my grandparents should also miss their grandchildren." ”

The next morning, Zhong Shan and his family did not eat breakfast, and only made half a small bowl of thin noodles for Zixing. Zhong Shan said: "My mother must have wrapped the wontons and waited for us!" We didn't go, we had to freeze it in the freezer. ”

When the three of them entered the door, their mother had already wrapped a curtain of wontons. Lin Meihui was happy: "Your son can smell the fragrance every two miles, and he says that he won't eat anything in the morning, but he is clamoring to come and eat the fresh meat wontons made by his mother." ”

Mother smiled: "It's not easy to eat, as long as you move back home, you can have wontons to eat every morning." ”

At this time, the father also came back from the morning exercise outside, and when he saw his little grandson, he happily hugged him, hugging and kissing. Since having a grandson, Zhong Shulin smokes much less than in the past, and whenever he has the idea of smoking, he chooses to go downstairs to watch a game of chess, or go for a walk in the park.

Meihui sat down in front of her father-in-law and said, "Dad, our art troupe is going to be transformed into a tertiary company, I still want to be a singer, you can talk to the song and dance troupe in the city and transfer me over." ”

Zhong Shulin handed over to his daughter-in-law the grandson who was eager to pounce on his mother, and said: "Coincidentally, I happened to meet Ma Xiaogang, the deputy head of the troupe, while walking in the park just now, and said that the city song and dance troupe is almost unable to receive any performance tasks now, and it is also facing the problem of merging or disbanding with other troupes. You're transferred there, and you're in the same situation as you are now. ”

Listening to her father-in-law's words, Meihui was disappointed. After a while, he said: "It's all my fault, I have a child early, and everything good is delayed." Last year, the Coal Art Troupe came to our group to pick people, and Li Muzi in the group was selected, and she didn't sing as well as me. But the person is a girl, I have a big belly, what can I do. ”

Zhong Shan, who was helping his mother cook wontons, interjected: "Don't you can't pull and rely on the earth without gravity, if you don't have children, you will become Guo Lanying and Li Guyi?" You have the ability to go to the Central Conservatory of Music. ”

Meihui was so angry that she glanced at her husband, because her in-laws were there, and it was not easy to have a seizure.

After breakfast, Mie asked her in-laws to help watch the child for two hours, saying that she was about to go to work, and asked Zhong Shan to accompany her to the department store to buy two new clothes.

As soon as she went out, Lin Meihui said: "Zhong Shan, don't be old-fashioned, I'm okay, your son is still eating his mother's milk, let's see what you do if you run out of food for your son!" ”

Zhong Shan smiled and said, "Teasing you!" I don't believe that you, a mother, are so ruthless that you will cut off my son's military rations. ”

When she came to the department store, Lin Meihui deliberately went to the professional wear counter and picked out a beige shorts and trousers suit and a white georgette shirt. said: "After I transferred to the tertiary production company, I am a company employee, and this set of clothes is just right." Zhong Shan had to admire Meihui's optional taste, but it was a pity that this set of professional clothes was worn on a lactating mother, no matter how she looked at it, not to mention that her hair was still tied up indiscriminately, without the temperament of a professional woman.

On the way back, Lin Meihui took Zhong Shan's arm and said, "Why don't you talk to our father, let him say hello to Director Zou, and ask Director Zou to talk to Mr. Nie, and transfer me to the Smelting Construction Group." If you are not an actor, you can be a cadre of an agency! ”

Zhong Shan was so angry that he shook off Lin Meihui's arm and stuffed the plastic bag containing new clothes that she was carrying for her: "You really want to!" ”
