Ever since Jiang Tian wrote that essay during the initial test at the beginning of the school that made all the Chinese teachers in the school burst into tears, Teacher Ouyang has never encouraged her again.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to.

Mainly because my wife won’t let me.

Ouyang Sihai's lover Hao Xue used to work in a light bulb factory.

Hao Xue was not a skilled worker and had only graduated from elementary school. The reason she was able to work in the light bulb factory was because she was a teacher's family member and the Ouyang family happened to have some connections in the local area. After Hao Xue married Ouyang Sihai, the Ouyang family found a way to get her a job in the light bulb factory, where she did odd jobs in the trade union.

After the light bulb factory closed down last year, they, the "idle workers", were the first to be laid off.

This damn girl He Tiantian, having heard from somewhere that the "master's wife" was laid off, actually ran to his house, "visited him three times", and managed to poach Hao Xue over, allowing her to continue doing "logistics work" by making use of her remaining energy.

What kind of logistical work could a small restaurant selling boxed lunches have to do?

Ouyang Sihai muttered a few words, highly suspecting that He Tiantian was afraid that his salary alone was not enough to support their family of four, so he made up a position and stuffed the "master's wife" in to collect the salary.

But seeing that his wife was happy all day after returning to work, Ouyang Sihai didn't want to pour cold water on her. He could only remind her privately that since she was taking someone else's salary, she had to work hard for them even if the person who paid her was his student.

When Hao Xue worked in the union of the light bulb factory, she was a gentle older sister who spoke softly. But after working in Fangjie's fast food restaurant, her voice became louder and louder. When she heard her husband nagging behind her, as if questioning her logistical management ability, she immediately raised her voice and yelled back -

"If you don't know anything, just shut up! I'm doing great at the fast food restaurant. Even Tiantian's mom said I'm a natural at logistics."

"Tiantian's mother also said that after the provincial road is repaired, they will open a few more branches and then set up a catering company. They must make me the company's union chairman."

“You’re the union chairman?”

"Why, you don't believe me? If you don't believe me, come and work half a day with me on Sunday and I'll let you see that I'm no longer the little Hao who used to serve tea and water in the union of the light bulb factory."

"Let's go! I want to see if the logistics department of a fast food restaurant can have more work than a light bulb factory?" Ouyang Sihai really wanted to go and see how his wife's current job was.

He still suspects that Jiang Tian was deliberately sending money to their family.

After all, when my wife worked in a light bulb factory, after deducting some miscellaneous expenses every month, she only got a little over a hundred yuan.

But after Jiang Tian hired her, he not only made her the director of the logistics department, but also gave her a raise.

Now Hao Xue can get a salary of 350 yuan per month, which is only 50 yuan less than what he makes as a class teacher.

Early on Sunday morning, after breakfast, the couple sent their child to his mother-in-law's house, and Ouyang Sihai rode a bicycle to work with his wife.

This "temporary branch" on the provincial road is just a few sheds built together. Hao Xue, the director of the logistics department, doesn't even have an office.

But this does not prevent her from being in a high position and having great power. As soon as she arrived at the store, she was surrounded by a group of people.

"Director Hao! It rained last night, and the awnings of the public toilet and the kitchen are leaking. The weather forecast says it will rain again today. What should we do? We need to arrange for someone to come and fix it!"

"Director Hao! Forget about the awning. It rained too hard last night. I don't know if the vegetable fields in the countryside were flooded. The vegetables that were supposed to be delivered at seven o'clock in the morning have not been seen yet. The family who delivered the vegetables doesn't have a phone installed, so we can't contact them. We should quickly arrange a few people to go to the town to buy vegetables."

"Director Hao! There's no paper in the toilet..."

"Shut up! Come one by one. Xiao Li, follow me inside to get the money. Hurry up and take two people to the town to buy vegetables. Don't wait for someone to deliver the vegetables."

"Xiao Ma, I remember that we asked your uncle to come over and fix the awning for our store, right? So, put your business aside for now, and go back to find your uncle and ask him to come over and help us fix the awning. Come to me to settle the bill after it's done."

"And you, the toilet is out of paper, can't you go to the warehouse and get some more?"

Director Hao's eyebrows were almost raised in anger.

The young man who ran over to report the news almost cried: "Director Hao, Director Hao, our store's warehouse is also flooded!"

What?

Director Hao could no longer sit still, and a group of people ran to the warehouse at the back.

Only then did I realize that it was no wonder that the person who was guarding the store last night didn't notice anything unusual.

It turned out that the awning on the warehouse at the back was intact, and the half near the road was also in good condition. Only behind the warehouse, a big hole collapsed underground at some point, and late last night, the ditch at the back was flooded, and the river water flowed back in, soaking all the things stored at the back!

At this time, there was no time to pursue the responsibility of the employees on duty. A group of people quickly opened the warehouse door and moved the rice, flour, grain, oil and other items that had not been flooded to the front.

Things like toilet paper that have been soaked in water are definitely not worth using. However, if you find sweet potatoes and potatoes in time, you can immediately take them out, wash them, and dry them before eating.

Ouyang Sihai didn't expect that the director of a small logistics department would have to take care of so many things every day.

After finally moving all the things in the warehouse out, Hao Xue rode her bicycle to the town to find people to bring stones, cement and other things to block the hole in the basement of the warehouse.

While the master was plugging the hole in the warehouse, the groceries buyer came back with a sad face, carrying a woven bag that was not yet full.

"What's going on?" Director Hao asked them anxiously.

"We went to the town to buy vegetables. We heard that there had been two days of heavy rain in the upper reaches of the Shuanglong River. The whole city was flooded. In order to protect the main urban area, the upstream reservoir released floodwaters, flooding the vegetable fields on both sides of the Shuanglong River!"

"How could this happen?" Hao Xue sat down on the stool.

The chef in the kitchen was so anxious that he almost hanged himself, and urged her:

"Director Hao, you should hurry up and think of a solution. I think the vegetables they bought, plus the potatoes and pumpkins in the backyard, are only enough for lunch at most. If we can't buy vegetables today and the delivery person can't come, then should we still make lunch boxes tonight?"

Hao Xue gritted her teeth and stood up: "Give me a few woven bags, I'll go to the village to buy vegetables!"

Ouyang Sihai also stood up.

"I'll go with you!"

"What are you going to do?"

Teacher Ouyang glanced at his wife and said proudly:

"Do you know which village nearby grows the most vegetables?"

The dedicated teacher Ouyang personally visits students' homes every year. He knows better than the vegetable vendors in town which village grows the most vegetables and who has the largest vegetable garden.
