Chapter 123 Father-in-law's Family and Rewards
in the living room.

Zhou Xiaoyan learned that her son-in-law could help her son solve his work problems, and that there were several good companies for him to choose from.

She said happily, "Mengde, Shengnan, don't worry. After we go back, your father and I will supervise Shengwen's studies every day and make sure he gets his junior high school diploma."

Beside him, He Shengwen looked confused.

At first, when he heard his sister say that he could arrange a job for himself, he was very happy, but he didn't expect the turn of events to come so quickly and he even had to study hard every day.

This was going to cost him his life.

Ever since he entered junior high school, his playful nature has exploded. Except for the little knowledge he learned in the first year of junior high school, by the second year of junior high school, he was completely unfamiliar with the knowledge in the books.

I haven't opened my textbooks in school for a long time, let alone studying at home.

"Mom~"

He called Zhou Xiaoyan "Mom" pitifully.

Unfortunately, his mother, who usually doted on him and obeyed him in most things, was unmoved this time and said with a smile:

"Shengwen, you still have time. Make good use of this year or so. With your father and I's encouragement, you will definitely get your diploma.

By the way, your father will be in charge of supervising you from now on. If you don’t study hard, he will beat you up. I will never beg for mercy, and there is no room for negotiation on this matter.”

Although he said this with a smile, his tone was unquestionable and full of threats.

If her son had asked her for a favor under normal circumstances, she would have agreed.

But she would not be soft-hearted when it comes to this opportunity to get into a good company.

She can still distinguish between the important and unimportant matters in her son's life.

Seeing his mother's firm attitude, and thinking of He Guangyao's amazing "Stir-fried Bamboo Shoots with Shredded Pork", He Shengwen felt like crying but had no tears. He turned his gaze to his sister.

Usually, my sister loves me the most.

But this time, he was disappointed.

He Shengnan smiled and added, "Mom, in order to prevent him from not studying well in school, I think you and Dad should go to the teacher more often to find out the situation."

"Yes, I didn't expect this. I really need to talk to the teacher about his situation."

Zhou Xiaoyan slapped her thigh and said with a smile.

Seeing his brother being humiliated, He Shengwu gloated and said, "Mom, why don't you give me all my brother's toys? Otherwise, keeping them will distract him."

"Shengwu, you wish for that." Seeing that even his brother stabbed him, He Shengwen got angry and said angrily:

"Mom, Shengwu's grades aren't good right now, and he might not even get a junior high school diploma in the future. Why don't we take advantage of this moment and let him study hard."

He went straight for the "fight to the death" strategy.

He Shengwu, who was originally feeling proud, didn't expect his brother to let the fire burn him. Before he could say anything, He Shengnan said, "By the way, Mom, Shengwu has to study hard too."

She also had hope that her younger brother would be able to get a job in a good company in the future.

He Shengwen and He Shengwu looked at each other and snorted in disgust.

They all felt a little regretful that they shouldn't have followed their mother to their brother-in-law's house today to learn how to ride a bicycle.

Well now, the happy days are coming to an end.

At noon, father-in-law He Guangyao and Wang Mengde came home with a piece of meat, two bottles of wine, and a dozen steamed buns made of double-kneaded flour.

"Lao He, why did you bring anything with you? We've already bought some meat, some wine, and some steamed buns. We just steamed a pot of them."

"Meng De, I asked you to invite your father-in-law, why are you letting him spend money? Didn't I tell you just now?"

Seeing what He Guangyao was holding, Wang Hao said with an unhappy look on his face.

Wang Mengde had a wry smile on his face. He rode his bicycle to Caochang Hutong. Seeing him come back, He Guangyao was very happy and readily agreed to his son-in-law's invitation.

Before going out, despite his objections, she packed a dozen steamed buns from home into a cloth bag, bought half a pound of pork from the grocery store next to the Drum Tower, and also bought two bottles of white wine.

"Lao Wang, you are in a good mood today, so shouldn't I bring some food and wine? Besides, you need food coupons to buy food now, and no one is rich. We are a family of five eating at your house. Even if we don't give you food coupons, we have to bring some steamed buns."

He Guangyao said cheerfully.

He had a scale in his mind. Once the food coupon system was implemented, basically every household was short of food.

In the past, when Zhou Xiaoyan came to help her son-in-law, she would at most bring her little daughter with her, and she would not be given food coupons for meals. But now that the whole family is here, it would be a bit unreasonable if she was not given food coupons or did not bring her own staple food.

Wang Hao shook his head helplessly.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to help his in-laws a little. After all, He Guangyao was the only one in the He family who earned money to support the family.

There are five people in the family, including three half-grown children, and their life is usually very tight.

I didn't expect that this relative was unwilling to take advantage. It seems I can only find another opportunity later.

At the dinner table, the topic turned to Wang Mengde's support trip to the south. Both He Guangyao and Zhou Xiaoyan were proud of their son-in-law's achievements.

After He Shengnan talked about her two younger brothers’ academic performance and how they would have the opportunity to join a good company next year.

He Guangyao had already drunk quite a bit of wine by this time, and he said on the spot: "This is a simple matter. When we get back, we'll beat them up first, and then we'll beat them up every now and then, and the results will definitely improve."

His words frightened He Shengwen and He Shengwu so much that they trembled and even the meat in their mouths lost its flavor.

He Yanan, on the other hand, was eating happily with her cheeks lifted.

Since the Chinese New Year this year, she has only been able to eat meat four or five times a month, and the quantities are very small. This is because she is the eldest and youngest in the family, and everyone gives in to her.

After lunch, the two families chatted and laughed in the living room.

Most of the topics revolved around Wang Mengde and several children.

night.

The two sons had fallen asleep, so Wang Mengde and He Shengnan hugged each other and took a halftime break.

"Meng De, during the six months since you left, several things have happened in the courtyard. Aunt Yi helped the silly Zhu in the middle courtyard to find two girls, but I don't know what happened, and they didn't work out in the end."

He Shengnan lay in his arms with a happy look on her face, talking about what happened in the yard.

"Shazhu, he won't be able to find a wife in a short time." Wang Mengde said with a smile.

In the original drama, Sha Zhu was in his thirties and still hadn't found a partner. In the end, he wanted to settle down with Qin Guafu, but because of the big plot, it was delayed another ten years.

I didn’t get married until I was in my forties.

If it weren't for the help of the deaf old lady, who let Lou Xiao'e give birth to a son for him, he would probably have been doomed to die.

Now that he has traveled to this era, under the butterfly effect, it seems that he still cannot change Sha Zhu's fate of finding a widow in the future. "Meng De, how can you say that about Sha Zhu? He just looks a little older, but his family conditions are still good. He has only one sister, who is in school now. She will find a job in a few years, and then get married, and both rooms will be his.

He is also a chef. I heard that he only works in the small kitchen in the steel mill. Not only is the work easy, but there is also money to be made. He can bring lunch boxes home every day. During his rest time, he can also help in the kitchen for others. He earns a lot of money every month.

He Shengnan said.

"Haha, then why don't you talk about his foul mouth? Also, he keeps his eyes on his neighbor, Sister Qin. Which girl would want to be with someone like that?"

Wang Mengde laughed.

There was one more thing he didn't say, which was that Xu Damao would not allow Sha Zhu to find a wife.

The old Xu family in the backyard inherited a lot of bad intentions, and Sha Zhu can't stand it.

"Let's not talk about him. What else happened in the hospital?"

"In the second half of last year, Liu Guangqi from the backyard got married, and moved out with his wife the next day.

In addition to Guangqi, there is also Xu Damao. I heard from Aunt Xue that he was seen with a very Western-looking girl and they seemed to be in love, but Xu Damao denied it. "

A very stylish girl.

Wang Mengde's heart moved. Could this be Lou Xiaoe?

Calculating his age, Xu Damao is already 23 years old. Given the financial situation of the Xu family, it is very strange that he is still unmarried and has not found a partner at such an old age in this era.

If it was to wait for Lou Xiaoe, then that makes sense.

Although the Lou family's industries have been transformed into public-private partnerships, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Not to mention the Lou family's assets, their connections are unmatched by ordinary people.

Early the next morning.

After breakfast, Wang Mengde rode his bicycle to take He Shengnan to Deshengmen and then continued riding towards Guang'anmen.

When he arrived at the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, he went to the office as if he was familiar with the place, opened the door, and started cleaning.

After cleaning, she went to the water room to get a pot of boiling water, made a cup of hot tea for Pu Lao, and then picked up a book on the table and started reading.

When Mr. Pu came in, he saw him reading a book seriously.

"Meng De is back."

Pu Lao said with a smile on his face.

He nodded in his heart. It was truly commendable that his disciple could calm down and study as soon as he came back.

"Sir, I'm back." Wang Mengde quickly stood up and said with a smile.

"Well, well, well, you have done such a great thing for the country and the people during your trip to the south. It's incredible." Old Pu came up to him, looked him up and down, and gave him a thumbs up in praise.

"Sir, this is all because of your usual good teaching."

“Hahaha.” Pu Lao stroked his beard and laughed. “You are saying nice things. The treatment of schistosomiasis is entirely your own credit. I didn’t teach you any of this.”

"Come, tell me about your trip to the south."

Having said that, Pu Lao pulled him to sit down.

Wang Mengde then briefly recounted what he had encountered in the past six months.

After finishing speaking, Pu Lao said with emotion: "Meng De, one of my wishes in this life is to find a treatment for schistosomiasis and completely cure this disease.

I had given up hope for so many years, but who would have thought that after you went there, in just half a year, you actually solved a problem that no one had been able to solve for thousands of years. Great, I have basically no regrets in this life."

As the two were talking, there was a knock on the door outside the office.

Then, Xiao Zheng from the dean's office pushed the door open and walked in. He said with a smile, "Mr. Pu, Doctor Wang, the dean heard that Doctor Wang is here, so he asked me to invite him over."

"Oh, since the dean is calling you, Meng De, you should go quickly."

Mr. Pu said with a smile and gave Wang Mengde a reassuring look.

When they arrived at the dean's office and saw him coming in, Dean Lu stood up and said to him, "Xiao Wang is here, sit down quickly."

After saying that, she took the initiative to pour him a cup of tea.

"Thank you, Dean."

"Hahaha, you're welcome, Xiao Wang. This time, you've brought honor to our Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Now the whole country knows that you graduated from our Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine."

Dean Lu said with a smile.

"By the way, after approval from our superiors and a meeting of several leaders in the institute, we have decided to set your rank at level 104, with a monthly salary of yuan."

I have now reached level ten.

Wang Mengde was stunned for a moment. All of a sudden, he was promoted six levels, and his rank was the same as Wang Hao's. However, these were completely what he deserved for the achievements he had made.

Thinking of this, he said calmly: "Thank you, Dean."

"Well, Xiao Wang, you are still young, and there will be many opportunities for you to move up in rank in the future." Dean Lu comforted him, and then continued:

"Also, the hospital is planning to appoint you as the deputy director of the internal medicine department. The process is still going through, but it shouldn't be a big problem. Just keep it in mind and don't tell anyone else about it."

"Dean, I became the deputy director of the Department of Internal Medicine. What about my husband?" Wang Mengde asked hurriedly.

Before, there was one director and two deputy directors in the Department of Internal Medicine in the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Now I have also become a deputy director. Isn't that the same level as Mr. Pu?

"Haha, Mr. Pu is now the director of the Department of Internal Medicine. The former director Ma has been transferred to another position." Dean Lu explained.

Actually, there are reasons why Pu was able to become the director of the Department of Internal Medicine so smoothly.

After coming out of the dean's office, Wang Mengde felt a little dizzy.

Not only does he now have the same job title as his father Wang Hao, but he is also at the same level.

When I arrived at the office and told Pu Lao about it, Pu Lao said cheerfully: "Meng De, you deserve all these. By the way, with these achievements, you should not be proud and complacent."

In the cafeteria, Wang Mengde, Qian Dayong and Zhu Tao found a corner with their lunch boxes and ate lunch.

Seeing that there were no people around, Qian Dayong whispered enviously: "Meng De, you will become deputy director in a few days, and your rank will be raised to level ten all of a sudden."

“That’s not clear yet.”

Wang Mengde was not surprised that he knew this news. After all, his teacher was Vice President Zhu.

Speaking of which, they both took advantage of this trip and their job ranks will definitely be promoted after they return.

"It's a done deal. By the way, after you become the deputy director, you will have one more thing to do." Qian Dayong continued.
