When Yao Nian heard this, he knew that this stamp wasn’t that easy to get. He immediately handed the pastries over. “Yu Bing, you also know that I’m a scholar. Agricultural work isnt my forte. Can you make an exception?
Yu Bing immediately pushed the pastries back and rejected them righteously,
“Don’t do this. I won’t take anything. I’m just telling the truth.”
When Yao Nian saw how stubborn Yu Bing was, he was so anxious that he wanted to flare up. However, he didn’t dare to curse Yu Bing. He could only squeeze out a smile and continue, “Then what will it take for you to stamp it?”
Yu Bing smiled and said, “You make it sound like I’m deliberately making things difficult for you. I’ve already told you about your problem. As long as you get full work points in a month or two, I can stamp it. Of course, if you think
I’m targeting you, you can report it to my superiors.”
Yao Nian didn’t dare to offend Yu Bing at such a critical moment, mainly because he was indeed in the wrong.
The intellectual team leader’s evaluation of one’s performance did depend on one’s usual work performance. However, the team leader wouldn’t offend those with family connections, since they also wanted to leave a way out for themselves. They might be able to ask for favors.
Therefore, after hearing Yu Bings words, Yao Nian could only shake his head and explain, ‘You’ve misunderstood. I didn’t mean that. I’ll definitely work hard and try to get the stamp as soon as possible.”
Yu Bing didn’t reply when she heard this. She lowered her head and continued to look at the latest quarter’s financial statements. Seeing this, Yao Nian could only leave first and think of another way.
The reporting time for the recruitment form was limited. The machinery factory gave him three months, which was only two months away from now. Yao Nian was very anxious. The money had already been spent, so it was impossible for Yu Yan to return it. If he couldn’t report on time, the 450 yuan would be wasted. This money was enough to last city dwellers for more than half a year!
After thinking about it, Yao Nian could only try to earn more work points.
For the next month, Yao Nian took the initiative to do the heaviest work every day. At first, he was worried that he wouldn’t be able to hold on. Perhaps the temptation of returning to the city was too great, so he forcibly held on for more than 30 days. In the end, he fell ill on the 35th day.
After the sudden increase in workload more than a month in a row and the psychological pressure of not being able to return to the city without a stamp,
Yao Nian finally collapsed. He was overworked and he even vomited blood once from exhaustion.
When Yu Bing heard this, she only sneered. Compared to how much she had suffered back then, this was nothing.
When Yu Yan first found out that Yao Nian didn’t get a stamp, she didn’t say anything. At that time, she was in a hurry to return to Hang City to attend the wedding.
Yu Yan hurriedly applied for leave and left. In the end, she appeared at the wedding event location as Duan Mei’s family member. She stayed in Hang City for another half a month and enjoyed spending time with her biological family.
However, the joyful time depended on the fact that Duan Mei had obtained another 30 yuan from Yu Yan. Yu Yan didn’t think that there was any problem. It wasn’t easy for her to visit her parents, so it was only right for her to give them some money to be filial. She wasn’t as heartless as Yu Bing!
The two sides had completely different motives, but the outcome was the same.
When Yu Yan returned to the He Mountain Village, Yao Nian had already started working hard to earn work points. As long as he didn’t ask her for help, she couldn’t be bothered to interfere.
After Yao Nian rested for a day, he was in a hurry to get a stamp from Yu Bing. Just as he was worried that Yu Bing would find another excuse to reject him, he saw Yu Bing quickly stamp his form.
Yu Bing was so straightforward this time because she hoped that Yao Nian and Yu Yan would get together. The closer the two of them were to each other, the more relieved she would be.
After Yao Nian received the stamp, he packed his luggage and reported to the steel factory in Linshui City.
Yao Nian was no longer around, and Yu Yan was immersed in the joy of spending time with her biological family.
No one caused trouble for Yu Bing, so Yu Bing couldn’t be bothered with them. She began to arrange for the two new deputy factory directors to work together to expand the food factorys business beyond the province. She played the role of an auxiliary personnel and created sufficient learning opportunities for the two of them.
Yao Nian reported to the steel factory in April. Not long after he reported, Yu Hai learned from an acquaintance that the job he had found for Yu Yan had gone to Yao Nian..
