Chapter 664

Early morning, 6:25.

Li Ye's biological alarm clock rang on time, prompting him to open his eyes.

He reached out to pull the curtains by the window and saw that the sky outside was pitch black, knowing that it hadn't cleared up outside.

Li Ye stretched his arms and carefully turned over to get out of bed, so as not to wake Watching Wen Leyu, who was still fast asleep.

Watching Wen Leyu, who was over three months pregnant, had seen her morning sickness gradually disappear, but she was clearly much sleepier than before.

If it were before, Watching Wen Leyu would usually get up earlier than Li Ye, because the little wife was very persistent about her identity as a virtuous wife and had to make breakfast for Li Ye.

Li Ye agilely got out of bed, put on his clothes, and walked lightly to the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator and saw the cut and prepared ingredients placed on the refrigerator shelf.

Watching Wen Leyu knew she was sleepy, and Li Ye wouldn't let her use a mechanical alarm clock, saying it would delay "his son's sleep."

So Watching Wen Leyu would prepare the next day's breakfast every night, even if it was just cutting a scallion! It counts as cooking with Li Ye, doesn't it?

She, Watching Wen Leyu, was not a lazy wife.

Li Ye skillfully made a nutritious breakfast and brought it to the dining table before carefully waking Watching Wen Leyu.

Watching Wen Leyu, half-asleep, hugged Li Ye's arm: "Mmm, what time is it? I want to sleep for another five minutes."

Li Ye said, "There are no five minutes left. The snow outside is very thick today, so we have to leave fifteen minutes early, unless you ask Aunt Zhou for leave and don't go to work today."

"That's definitely not possible. I still have a bunch of things to do today!"

Watching Wen Leyu forced her eyes open, yawned, and sat up.

Although Watching Wen Leyu was a solid connection, Wu Kezhang Aunt Zhou was also a person chosen by her parents, but Watching Wen Leyu never slacked off or fished in troubled waters.

In her words, her parents' power could only be relied upon for a while, but her own abilities could benefit her for a lifetime.

If she didn't work hard to learn business and hone her skills now, no matter how much family wealth Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng left her, it would all be castles in the air.

Seeing Watching Wen Leyu crawl out of bed in a daze, Li Ye helped her get her clothes and put them on.

In the process of dressing, Li Ye noticed that the little wife finally had signs of "gradually becoming plump." The parts that were just normally raised before began to become curvy.

"Take your claws away. You're not being honest early in the morning."

Watching Wen Leyu slapped Li Ye's magic claws away and gave him a big eye-roll.

Li Ye said resentfully, "You've hugged me all night, and my arm is sore. I just touched you a few times..."

"Go, go, go, go, you old rascal."

Watching Wen Leyu, both shy and annoyed, feigned a kick at Li Ye and turned to sit at the dining table to eat.

The little wife's appetite was also bigger than before. After all, she was carrying a little cub in her belly; one person eating, two people digesting.

When she was almost finished eating, Li Ye asked Watching Wen Leyu, "I've been counting the days; you've been pregnant for almost four months, right? Should we go to the hospital for a check-up?"

"Go to the hospital for a check-up?"

Watching Wen Leyu glanced at Li Ye and suddenly said, "Do you want to see if our child is a boy or a girl?"

Li Ye was stunned, only then realizing that there was no concept of "prenatal check-up" at this time, so he had to shake his head and say, "No, no, I just want to confirm if the child is healthy."

Watching Wen Leyu immediately said firmly, "Then it must be healthy. I can feel him moving these past few days; he moves every day!"

A fetus might move before four months, but it's usually very slight. Only after four months will it obviously punch and kick, so Watching Wen Leyu felt that since she could feel the fetal movement, the child must be the healthiest.

However, Watching Wen Leyu then continued to ask Li Ye: "Then what if I'm pregnant with a girl?"

Li Ye asked in surprise, "What's wrong with a girl? Aren't you a girl? Where are you worse than those boys?"

Watching Wen Leyu squinted at Li Ye and then mysteriously said, "There's an elder sister in our company who has already lost two children. They were both gone after going to the hospital for an ultrasound."

"..."

Li Ye was very shocked.

Why were the children gone after an ultrasound? Isn't it obvious that they insisted on having a son? This situation was not uncommon in places where men were valued over women in the 1980s. He didn't expect this to happen at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

Li Ye held Watching Wen Leyu's hand and said seriously, "Don't worry, our family will definitely not have this kind of thing happen."

"Mm, I believe you."

Watching Wen Leyu nodded, but then frowned and hesitated, "But... I also want to have a boy!"

"..."

Li Ye drove slowly, first sending Watching Wen Leyu to work, and then driving to the Light Automobile Company.

This heavy snow was very thick. Even though Li Ye had installed anti-skid chains, he had no intention of showing off his driving skills. Ever since Watching Wen Leyu became pregnant, Li Ye felt that he had changed, as if he had become a bit "cowardly."

After arriving at the unit, he found that Old Ding and the others were all shoveling snow under the office building, and they had almost finished.

In any unit, there are always some employees who are either honest and diligent, or brave enough to perform, who will come to work early in bad weather and take the initiative to take on work outside their own duties.

After Li Ye parked the car, he took the broom from Master Old Ding and swept the remaining snow clean.

It wasn't until he had swept all the snow clean that he saw Wu Qingyi and Yue Lingshan from the office arrive late.

They were the kind of people who would never suffer a loss. Not only did they not shovel snow, but they also complained that the snow in a certain place wasn't swept clean, and they had almost fallen just now.

Yue Lingshan grumbled, "Wu Kezhang Ding, you have to report to logistics. The snow by the big pine tree on the west side hasn't been swept at all. I almost fell just now..."

Old Ding drank his tea calmly and said lightly, "You're young, it doesn't matter if you fall. If I really told the logistics people, maybe the heating here won't be hot later..."

"I'm young and it doesn't matter if I fall? Then if you, an old man, fall..."

"Ring ring ring~"

Yue Lingshan was just about to argue a few words when the phone rang. Because she was close, she picked it up.

"Hello? Oh oh oh, is the fall serious? Good, good, good..."

Yue Lingshan hurriedly gave the phone to Old Ding: "Wu Kezhang, Zheng Jiemin fell and went to the hospital. He wants to ask for leave from you!"

Old Ding took the phone in surprise, said a few words to the other side, and finally said, "If you want to ask for a month's leave, you have to bring the doctor's note, and you must have the medical record and X-ray."

"..."

After Old Ding hung up the phone, he dialed the unit's logistics phone again: "Hello, Old Wei! The snow by the big pine tree on the west side of our factory gate hasn't been swept by anyone...

I didn't want to trouble you either, but Driver Driver Xiao Zheng in our section fell on the way to work and broke a bone directly. If this happened in the unit... Good, good, sorry to trouble you, Old Wei, thanks for understanding."

After Old Ding finished the call, he said to Li Ye: "Driver Driver Xiao Zheng broke a bone and won't be able to come for at least a month. The work you arranged for him will have to be rearranged for someone else."

As soon as Old Ding finished speaking, Yue Lingshan very diligently picked up the office's thermos and went out to get water. And Deputy Wu Kezhang Wu Qingyi didn't even look at Li Ye; everyone was of the same rank, so it wasn't your turn to arrange work.

Li Ye didn't arrange for anyone; he went directly to the office next door and called a few people to move Zheng Jiemin's desk over, and then replaced him with a staff member surnamed Pan.

With so many people in the Supply Section, who couldn't be used?

According to past practice, the staff who entered Old Ding's office were the key training objects for future promotion. Before, it was hindered by various rules and relationships, as if it were internally determined.

But Li Ye had long been displeased with Zheng Jiemin, this kind of connection-based person. Damn it, he even tried to use his "qigong" on me. It would be strange if I didn't take this opportunity to kick him next door.

By the time Zheng Jiemin recovers and comes to work, the psychological gap and the looks from his colleagues will be enough for him to drink a pot.

Wu Qingyi glanced at Li Ye and smiled coldly, with ill intent.

Li Ye saw it, but didn't care at all.

A new official applies three fires. Don't treat my deputy section chief position as not being an official. Whoever provokes me, I'll burn them.

Sure enough, near the end of work in the afternoon, a woman with a sheep-head perm entered the Supply Section and shouted Li Ye's name as soon as she entered.

"Which one is Li Ye? Stand up and let me see!"
