Section 245 Parting(1/2)
Thursday, morning.
Despite all the reluctance in my heart, it was still time to say goodbye.
Hu Pingtao cleaned the house, washed all the accumulated dirty clothes, bought two pairs of cotton slippers for Su Xiaolin, went to the supermarket, bought back all kinds of snacks and food, and filled the refrigerator.
"I can't let you go, don't leave." She hugged his neck and acted coquettishly, just like a human koala.
Hu Pingtao patted his wife's back gently: "You stay at home and wait for me to come back. This time I will be on duty for a short period of time, at most a year."
"One year is not long enough! Three hundred and sixty-five days!" Su Xiaolin raised her head and pouted, her face full of displeasure.
Hu Pingtao carried her to the closet, stretched out his hand to open the cabinet door, pointed at the various snacks stacked neatly inside, and said with a smile: "Eat these things, and I will be back."
Su Xiaolin let go of her hand, slid off his body, and glared angrily: "You think I'm a pig!"
Hu Pingtao smiled and said: "Your pregnancy has caused an earthquake at home. Mom said she would come to see you on the weekends, and my sister also found a star-rated nanny, and even ordered regular door-to-door special care check-ups.
.And my dad... He doesn't care about anything except the military camp and his soldiers, so this time he made an exception. Mom quietly called me and told me: My dad has specially transferred his shift and will come to see you next month.
"
When he said this, Su Xiaolin became more confident: "That's right! Everyone is surrounding me, but you are not around. So, you are not a good person."
Hu Pingtao lost his temper after what she said and could only spread his hands: "Okay! I am a bad guy. But I am the child's father after all. This is always a fact!"
Su Xiaolin was just acting coquettishly, not being messy. She put her arms around Hu Pingtao's waist, hugged him tightly, pressed her face against his chest, and listened to the rhythmic beating of his heart through her uniform.
"Come back soon."
"You have to miss me every day."
"Call me every day."
"Also... go to work hard and work hard. The man I like must be an upright man."
…
The couple went out together.
She drove Hu Pingtao to the Public Security Department, watched him get off the car at the gate, said hello and goodbye, and then Su Xiaolin drove to her work unit.
At noon, I received a call from Hu Biyuan.
"Linlin, you get off work at five o'clock, right? Stay at work and wait for me to come over."
Su Xiaolin was a little touched. Hu Biyuan took good care of her. Although she didn't say it clearly on the phone, thinking about it, she knew that she was invited to have dinner with her.
At 5:20, Hu Biyuan drove her "Pamela" slowly into the parking lot of the Commerce Hall.
She called Amelia Su and asked her not to drive.
Seeing Amelia Su sitting in the passenger seat, Hu Biyuan said: "Let's eat first, and I will take you to the car market in the north later."
Su Xiaolin buckled her seat belt and was a little surprised: "Where are you going?"
"Let me change a car for you." Hu Biyuan held the steering wheel and drove slowly towards the gate. While driving, she explained: "The car you have now is too old and its performance is not good. I think you like it very much."
Pingtao's "Saroban" is usually driven a lot. How about changing to a similar car?"
Su Xiaolin waved her hand quickly: "Sister, I appreciate your kindness, please don't waste your money."
Hu Biyuan glanced at her and said with a smile: "How can this be said to be a waste of money? I only have a younger brother, Pingtao, and I like you as my sister-in-law very much. You are pregnant with the child now, and you are the key protector of our family.
Object. Let alone a car, I should even change your house."
Su Xiaolin was very happy in her heart, and even more moved: "Sister, it really doesn't have to be like this. I'm not that rich."
Hu Biyuan waved her hand arrogantly: "Don't worry about this matter, just listen to me!"
…
In the evening, Su Xiaolin drove a brand new BMW X6 home.
Hu Pingtao is away, and the house in Peninsula Jinyuan is deserted by himself, so it is more convenient to go home and live with his parents.
Hu Biyuan said that she would deal with the old car.
…
The next day.
She parked her old car at work last night, so Su Xiaolin can only drive her new car to work today.
The capital of Yunnan Province has a pleasant climate, and the winter is not very cold. You can get through the winter with a combination of sweater and coat, and it is rare to wear a down jacket.
Su Xiaolin is pretty. She wears a white cashmere turtleneck pullover that shows off her figure, and a pair of flat high boots under black tights. This combination is simple and practical, and she is used to wearing high ponytails, so she can wear light makeup casually.
Looks radiant and beautiful.
There are four people in the office.
Section Chief Gao Ruiqin is the oldest, forty-nine this year. If there is nothing particularly important, no one will come in too early. Gao Ruiqin usually comes in around 8:40, and it was the same today. He looked at the hot water dispenser in front of the water machine.
Su Xiaolin, who was having tea, smiled and asked: "Linlin, why did you change your car?"
Su Xiaolin straightened up, a little embarrassed: "Sister Gao, did you see it?"
Gao Ruiqin walked to her desk and put down her bag: "I'm just following you. At first, I was surprised that no one should come to the hall to do things so early. When I got out of the car, I saw that it was you...
Linlin, you are so awesome! You have only been working for a few years, you just bought a house, and now you have bought a BMW. Wow, wow, I didn’t see it before, but you are actually a little rich woman!"
Su Xiaolin quickly explained: "My husband and sister bought the car for me. I really have no money. Just like you, I get a salary."
"Then your husband's family treats you so well!" Gao Ruiqin felt a little envious: "You can do this to your daughter-in-law. Your father-in-law and mother-in-law are both understanding people."
Su Xiaolin said: "My husband went out on business and just left a few days ago. I moved back to my parents' house. Maybe it was because it was inconvenient for me to commute to get off work, so my husband's sister bought me this new car."
Gao Ruiqin praised: "So you are a blessed woman. You are beautiful and your family loves you."
She is straightforward and enthusiastic. Su Xiaolin has always regarded Gao Ruiqin as her eldest sister. She came early today and there were only two of them in the office. She thought about it and deliberately lowered her voice: "Sister Gao, um... I'm pregnant."
Gao Ruiqin was a little surprised and looked at Su Xiaolin carefully up and down: "How long has it been? You can't tell from your figure!"
Su Xiaolin was a little embarrassed: "I just got pregnant, less than a month ago."
Gao Ruiqin is someone who has been here before: "Then you have to pay attention to what you eat and what you do. I'll go back and rearrange your work schedule. All the work that requires you to go out will be assigned to you in the near future, and you will be replaced after three months. A pregnant woman, you have to go to the back of your body.
Yue Shen. You will be a little busier during this period, and you will sit in the office from now on."
Amelia Su was very grateful: "Thank you, Sister Gao."
Gao Ruiqin waved her hand: "Thank you for what! We are all colleagues, and it is normal to help each other... By the way, you said just now that your man is out on business. Why did he choose to go out at this time when you are pregnant?
"
Su Xiaolin explained: "He is a policeman. He must leave as soon as the higher-ups give orders."
Gao Ruiqin raised her hand and patted her forehead lightly: "Look at my brain... Yes, yes, yes, your husband is a policeman. I went there when you were married. How could I have forgotten... Linlin, why didn't he apply to work in the city?
Is he employed? Or is his workplace located in another place?"
Su Xiaolin held a small and exquisite tea cup and sipped it: "He has taken a temporary job at the grassroots level and is going to stay in Xiluo for a year."
This is no secret.
"Xiluo? So far?" Gao Ruiqin exclaimed in a low voice. She then paid attention to Su Xiaolin's emotions and said sympathetically: "It's really inconvenient for you to be alone at home. It's better to go back to your parents' home to live with your parents..."
It’s not easy to be a police wife!”
Su Xiaolin was in a bad mood, but she quickly adjusted and said with a smile: "Who made me like him? I think back then, when I first met him, I thought he was the person I have been waiting for all my life."
Gao Ruiqin deliberately joked: "I didn't see it! Does it mean that you two have been begging before the Buddha for thousands of years just like the song says?"
Su Xiaolin also deliberately made a sad face: "If it really takes that long, he and I will become old monsters."
The two were chatting and laughing when Cheng Yunxia walked into the office.
She is thirty-eight years old and comes from a good family. As soon as she came in, she asked loudly: "Whose is that BMW in the parking lot?"
The employees in the unit all know each other, and they are familiar with who drives what car. Under normal circumstances, most people who come to the business hall for work will not come until after 9:30, and the parking lot in the hall is not open to the public and is separated from the guest parking lot.
There are partitions in between.
Gao Ruiqin pointed at Su Xiaolin and smiled: "Linlin got a new car."
Cheng Yunxia looked at Su Xiaolin in surprise: "Linlin, how much did you buy it for?"
Su Xiaolin originally wanted to keep a low profile, but Cheng Yunxia was very shrewd, and there was no need to hide this kind of thing. She thought about it and answered honestly: "My husband and sister bought it for me. It seems to be more than 900,000, the specific price is
I’m not sure either.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Jie walked into the office from the outside. She happened to hear this sentence, frowned and asked: "I remember the BMW X6 is not so expensive!"
She is older than Su Xiaolin, but she is a young person in the business hall. She is thirty-one years old this year.
Jiang Jie came late and didn't hear the previous discussion. She took the lead and walked to her desk while smiling: "You are talking about that new car outside, right? I like that car very much too. Last month, I told you
My husband went to the car market to look at it and could buy it for more than 600,000 yuan."
When she said this, she had an arrogant expression on her face.
Jiang Jie doesn't like Amelia Su.
She is young and beautiful, has strong work ability, and can speak fluent foreign languages... Although the Department of Commerce has appointed fixed positions, Jiang Jie feels an indescribable hostility every time she sees Su Xiaolin.
