Chapter 470 Meeting Gift
It was another day of working overtime.
Because a factory suddenly increased the quantity of the order and Yu Bing couldn’t bear to lose the large order, after she discussed the production progress with Jiang Chun, she accepted the order.
The food factory, which was only a little busy, was working even harder now. Yu Bing hired five part-time workers to help out.
Yu Bing moved her shoulders to relieve her stiff muscles. After she entered the house with Jiang Chun, she said weakly, “Oh my god, I feel like my shoulders don’t even belong to me anymore!”
Yu Bing was like a screw now. She helped out wherever she needed to. She even had to do heavy manual labor like this when there was a shortage of people. Compared to Jiang Chun, who stayed in the production workshop to help bottle and bag things, she was much more tired.
Jiang Chun rubbed her wrist and replied with a smile, “All the best. There’s still a week before the order will be completed. Victory is just ahead! Alright, go lie down for a while. I’ll go cook.”
Yu Bing didn’t listen to Jiang Chun’s arrangements. She followed her into the kitchen and said, “You’re not any better than me. Let’s cook together so we can get things done faster. I think we should just cook noodles. It’s faster and more convenient. Everyone will get two eggs and some sausages and vegetables.”
There was meat, eggs, and vegetables. The food was quite good.
Jiang Chun’s eyes lit up. “Then I’ll help you.”
After dinner, Jiang Chun couldn’t wait to take out the letter Zhao Lin had helped her receive in the afternoon.
When Yu Bing returned to the living room, she saw Jiang Chun smiling foolishly at the letter. Yu Bing teased, “You’re smiling so brightly again. What did your person do to you?”
Jiang Chun turned to look at Yu Bing and shared excitedly, “I’ve passed my political review! Cui Jin’s marriage application report to the army has also been approved.”
It was more troublesome for a soldier to get married. The marriage partner had to go through the military’s political review. This review wasn’t only for a soldier’s partner. The partner’s acquaintances and immediate family had to be investigated to ensure that they wouldn’t be infiltrated by the enemy.
Yu Bing also sat down at the table happily. “Congratulations. After this round, it’s basically a sure bet, a shoo-in.”
Jiang Chun smiled sweetly and lowered her head as she said in embarrassment, “Cui Jin even said that he applied for a family visit leave for 20 days. He’ll come over to register his marriage with me before the new year.”
When Yu Bing heard this and looked at the only bedroom, she suddenly felt a little redundant. After she thought for a moment, she said, “Then I’ll stay in the dormitory building. You guys can stay here.”
Jiang Chun hurriedly shook her head. “There’s no need to go through so much trouble. We’ll go register our marriage on the day he comes over. After that, we’ll go back to his house and stay for 10 days. Then, we’ll go to my house to visit my parents during the rest Yu Bing smiled nonchalantly. “What’s there to be sorry about? Getting married and going home for the new year is a serious of the time.”
With that, Jiang Chun looked at Yu Bing apologetically. “Yu Bing, I’m sorry that I have to leave you here alone for the new year.”
Yu Bing smiled nonchalantly. “What’s there to be sorry about? Getting married and going home for the new year is a serious matter. I don’t lack anything here, so don’t worry about me. You should think about what gift to prepare for your parents-in-law.”
Jiang Chun blushed when she heard Yu Bing’s teasing, but she quickly became a little vexed. “Cui Jin’s family is quite well-off, so I don’t know what to prepare. I still have some dried mushrooms that I asked Xiao Sheng to buy last time. I plan to bring that with me, but those things definitely won’t be enough. I have to prepare some other things.”
Dry mushrooms were a specialty of the city of Yungui Province in the southwest. They were nutritious and tasty. To the inland area, they were considered very expensive gifts. However, in addition to cost, quantity was also important. There were indeed too few in terms of quantity, and it wasn’t auspicious to give gifts in single quantities.
Yu Bing gave Jiang Chun an idea. “Since it’s still early, you might as well make something for them yourself. Sincerity is the most important thing.”
She had an expensive gift and a gift to express her sincerity. As long as the other party wasn’t someone picky, it would be enough.
Jiang Chun nodded. “Then I’ll knit two scarves for my in-laws! By the way, I’ll also knit wool gloves for the twins. These are easy to knit. When we’re done with the factory’s work, we can buy yarn from town during the holidays.”
After the factory completed all the orders as scheduled, it was time for the holidays.
Because of the year-end dividends, work in the accounting room was still ongoing.
