Chapter 1284 Confidence
Zhang Xiufang hurriedly returned. Standing at the door, she saw Hu Jian reading a newspaper through the glass, his brows furrowed.
When Zhang Xiufang came in and saw Hu Jian's gaze fixed on some job postings, she knew that the actual situation might be more serious than she had imagined.
Zhang Xiufang felt particularly sorry for Hu Jian, who was responsible and ambitious and would never accept losing his ability to earn money to support his family.
When Hu Jian saw Zhang Xiufang return, he quickly put the newspaper away, chuckled awkwardly, and said, "I was just looking at it, don't overthink it!"
Zhang Xiufang hugged Hu Jian tightly, her voice slightly choked, "You're just too honest! Even if you went back to your original workplace, it wouldn't be easy to get things done, so you started looking for work on your own! You never even thought of asking anyone for help!"
Hu Jian smiled and patted his chest, "Don't worry, I've worked my way up in the corporate world over the years and accumulated a lot of skills! I'll definitely be able to earn money to support you and the kids!"
Zhang Xiufang wiped away her tears. Everyone said she had bad luck. A widow had died, and she had a son to raise. Even remarrying wasn't easy.
But Zhang Xiufang felt that she was very lucky. Her first husband was a great man who stood tall and protected his country.
Her second husband was also a soldier, with an exceptionally good physique. He was not only intelligent and ambitious, but also hardworking and responsible. He treated their son, Chongyang, very well.
Some daughters never meet a good man in their entire lives, but Zhang Xiufang has had two. Isn't that a blessing?
"I was worried about you just now, and Meilan and Grandpa Liu saw me, so I couldn't help but tell them! Meilan was actually happy to hear that. If you don't want to work at your current company, quit and come work for her! Since you're a man, you can travel for work, so Meilan won't have to go on business trips anymore!"
Hu Jian was taken aback. "Meilan, did you really say that? Or was it just a polite remark?"
Zhang Xiufang nodded, "Yes! I know Meilan. If she didn't want to, she wouldn't have even mentioned it! You have good character, strong abilities, and are hardworking, so he trusts you and can take charge of some external affairs for him!"
Hu Jian still hesitated, not wanting to put Zhang Xiufang in a difficult position, "This..."
Zhang Xiufang shook her husband's arm and explained with a smile, "Think about it carefully. How many people that Meilan would choose are not good? If you don't have the ability, even if Meilan helps us, she will only give us some financial compensation at most. She will never arrange such an important job for you! So don't overthink it, just take good care of your health! If your original employer respects you, then work hard! If they don't, then we'll pack our bags and leave!"
"If they don't want you here, there are plenty of other places that will! Let's not talk about anything else, just look at the pearl farms Meilan cultivates at sea. Do you think the employees there get low wages? The key is that you didn't come here to work, so you not only have to work hard, but you also have to be loyal!"
Hu Jian thought about it carefully and nodded, "What you said makes sense!"
Zhang Xiufang said with a hint of pride, "Of course, this is based on my experience living in the Liu family for several years! Back then, because Chongyang's father saved the eldest son of the Liu family on the battlefield, they could have just given us some money to help us! But they brought Chongyang and me here and treated us like family!"
"Coming here, I felt the sincerity of the Liu family. I also consider Grandpa Liu and the Liu family as my own family, and it's all based on sincerity. If my son Chongyang were still in our hometown, he would definitely not be as successful as he is now! I am so glad that I came here with them back then. A person's choice can often change their destiny! Hu Jian, you are really very lucky to have such an opportunity!"
Hu Jian smiled and hugged Zhang Xiufang tightly. "Thank you, Xiufang! It's the greatest blessing of my life to be able to marry such a wonderful woman like you, even though I'm in my second marriage!"
Zhang Xiufang blushed slightly. "We're all so lucky! Get some rest and don't worry!"
Hu Jian smiled and said, "Great!"
Hu Jian had the most restful sleep he'd had in days. Zhang Xiufang was right; if he couldn't work at his original workplace, he would go work for Liu Meilan.
Both Tang Xiaoyu and Wang Lemei started out working alongside Liu Meilan. When suitable development projects came along, they could invest and grow the business. Perhaps he'll have his chance someday too.
After delivering the food to Hu Jian, Zhang Xiufang rushed off to work.
Hu Jian underwent rehabilitation under the guidance of medical staff. Without psychological burden, Hu Jian's rehabilitation recovery was very rapid.
Around noon, a young man bought some fruit and quietly came to visit Fujian.
"Xiao Lu, you're not at work, why are you here now?" Hu Jian was slightly taken aback when he saw Xiao Lu coming over.
Xiao Lu sat in the chair and said, "Section Chief Hu, all my work has been taken away! I'm just sitting on the sidelines at the office!"
Hu Jian was slightly taken aback. "The work I'm in charge of is very important. How can I easily hand it over to someone else?"
Xiao Lu was troubled. "I didn't want to either, but they just found some excuse to gang up on me! Without you, I can't hold them up alone. Plus, our leader has been transferred, and now they've brought in someone from outside to take your place! You need to be prepared that even if you go back, you might not have your old position anymore!"
Hu Jian felt a pang of sadness. He had put in so much hard work for that job. "Xiao Lu, I'm sorry to have dragged you into this!"
Xiao Lu quickly shook his head, "Section Chief Hu, I've always regarded you as my mentor. You've taught me so much! I'm just a farm boy. Although I got into university and was assigned to a good unit, if you hadn't guided me, I would still be doing all sorts of messy chores and wouldn't have learned any real skills!"
"I'm not here to upset you, I really want to remind you. Even after you recover and go back, never sign any documents casually! I have a feeling they're up to no good, probably trying to set you up! Because the work is almost finished, and the people who want to reap the rewards are getting impatient!"
Hu Jian patted Xiao Lu on the shoulder; he seemed much more composed than before.
"Xiao Lu, don't worry! If you don't have anything to do, just go to get off work as usual. I'll figure something out when I get back!"
Xiao Lu was still disheartened. "Brother Hu, all the key personnel have been replaced by theirs! Our superiors have also been transferred. Even if we can find something on them and tear the roof off, it might still affect the leaders who used to take care of us! So after thinking it over, we two have to leave quietly! Shenzhen is developing so well, we can always find jobs, so don't worry!"
Hu Jian smiled and said, "Of course I'm not in a hurry. Like you said, there are plenty of good jobs! If the new company can't accommodate us, then we'll just quit!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Lu's eyes lit up. "Brother Hu, do you have a new connection?"
