Early the next morning, Lin Chaoyang took Tao Yushu to the hospital. After examination, it was confirmed that she was more than seven weeks pregnant.

They were mentally prepared, and they had already forgotten the negative pressure that might have arisen from the arrival of this little life, and were happy after confirming it.

After leaving the hospital, Tao Yushu asked Lin Chaoyang, "What should we do next?"

"Let's go sit down at Lao Lin's house. He was busy with the transfer, and as a result, such an accident happened. We have to go and say sorry."

Tao Yushu nodded, as it should be.

The couple drove to the courtyard of the Yanjing Literary and Art Association, and Lin Jinlan happened to be at home. Originally, he was greeting several relatives and friends. When he saw Lin Chaoyang and his wife coming, he immediately and enthusiastically invited them into the study.

Lin Jinlan thought they were here to pay New Year greetings, and said with a smile: "You two are rare visitors!"

After exchanging a few words, Lin Jinlan mentioned Tao Yushu's job transfer again.

"Two days ago to celebrate the New Year, I told the leaders of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles about your transfer, and the leaders of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles were very supportive.

Yushu, you graduated from our Yanjing City Federation of Literary and Art Circles, practiced a lot in "People's Literature" and then came back, so you can add more responsibilities."

Lin Jinlan's tone was full of appreciation for Tao Yushu, and her expression unconsciously revealed a bit of embarrassment.

"Old Lin!" Lin Chaoyang said sternly to Lin Jinlan: "I came with Yushu today just for work."

Looking at Lin Chaoyang's expression, Lin Jinlan noticed something strange and asked, "What's the matter? People's Literature doesn't want to release it?"

"No, it's Yushu who is pregnant." Lin Chaoyang said calmly.

"Oh!"

Lin Jinlan couldn't help but let out an unexpected cry when he heard this.

"Pregnant?" Lin Jinlan couldn't help but cast his eyes on Tao Yushu's abdomen, and then realized that it was rude to do so. He looked away and asked, "Have you confirmed it? Have you gone to the hospital for a checkup?"

Tao Yushu nodded firmly, "I've checked and I'm indeed pregnant, 8 weeks."

"Ah!" Lin Jinlan nodded slowly, slowly digesting this information in his heart.

After hesitating for a while, he asked: "What about the job..."

Lin Chaoyang said: "Old Lin, you know this policy now, and the transfer will definitely not be possible. You also know Yushu's character, she is so strong.

With this incident, even if I can keep my job, I will not be happy in the workplace in the future. I thought, I might as well resign."

Hearing this, Lin Jinlan was shocked again, "Resign? Yushu has done such a good job."

As he spoke, he was full of regrets about Tao Yushu's resignation.

Seeing Lin Jinlan's attitude, Tao Yushu's expression darkened, "There's nothing we can do about it. This little guy is here after a long journey, how can we keep him away?"

When Tao Yushu spoke, he placed his hand gently on his abdomen, and the brilliance of motherhood shone between his brows.

Lin Jinlan was also touched by her emotions, "That's the truth."

Then he laughed again, "If someone wants to resign, I will have to persuade them. Your family's financial conditions are here, and since you and your wife have discussed it, I will not persuade them."

In the literary world, Lin Chaoyang is well-known and everyone knows the impact of his works. In addition, his income has always been a topic of discussion among many people in the literary world.

The standard of royalties is high and the output is high, so his royalties income has always been in the first echelon in the literary world.

Last year, the royalty payment system caused a lot of controversy, and Lin Chaoyang became the first pioneer in the country to receive "royalties." In recent months, the question of how much royalties Lin Chaoyang received has become a hot topic in the literary world.

All in all, Lin Chaoyang's income far exceeds that of ordinary writers and ordinary working-class people, so whether the couple works or not will not have any impact on their lives.

Tao Yushu apologized, "It's nothing to resign. The main thing is that I failed to live up to your good intentions."

Lin Jinlan quickly smiled and waved his hand, "Hey! What does it have to do with it? Anyway, the transfer hasn't been done yet, so it doesn't matter."

"Old Lin, if Yushu doesn't come to you, who do you plan to use as the deputy editor?" Lin Chaoyang asked.

Lin Jinlan asked: "Do you have anyone else to recommend to me?"

Lin Chaoyang shook his head, "There are no recommended candidates, but there is one who is jumping up and down. If Yushu doesn't go and you don't choose him, he will probably remember you for the rest of your life."

Lin Jinlan laughed when he heard this, "So, the deputy editor has to find him?"

After the joke, Lin Jinlan said seriously: "If Yushu doesn't come, this guy Li Tuo is indeed a suitable candidate. Don't mention this to him yet, just let him go for a while. Only in this way can he cherish this opportunity and work hard in the future."

.”

"Being a leader is different!" Lin Chaoyang joked to Lin Jinlan.

After talking about the business, Lin Jinlan wanted to stay with Lin Chaoyang and his wife at home for dinner, but they declined politely.

After leaving Lin Jinlan's house, the couple came to the Overseas Chinese Apartment again. Only Zhang Guiqin was at home. Lin Erchun was nowhere to be seen at this moment, either on the way to collect rent or on the way to buy a house.

In the evening, when Lin Erchun came back, Lin Chaoyang announced the news of pregnancy. Lin Erchun and his wife were immediately overjoyed.

In the concept of the elderly, there is no such thing as family planning, late birth, eugenics, and a happy life. It is true that many children bring happiness and people are prosperous.

After Lin Erchun learned the news, he paced back and forth excitedly, "Oh! Oh! This is really great. I originally thought that Dongdong would be too lonely as a child, but now it's better, I have a child.

Brothers and sisters, when they grow up, they will have someone to take care of them."

He was so happy that Zhang Guiqin asked, "Chaoyang, aren't we doing family planning now? Yushu is pregnant..."

"Mom, I have discussed it with Yushu. She will resign first and then find something to do after giving birth."

There was a look of regret on Zhang Guiqin's face, "It would be a pity to resign. Can we discuss it with the leader? We don't need a salary, and the family is not short of that little money."

Lin Chaoyang suddenly couldn't laugh or cry. Just when he was about to answer her, Lin Erchun got there first.

"What nonsense are you talking about? There are still conditions for this thing? Let Yushu give birth to the child peacefully first.

She graduated from Yanzhou Normal University. What kind of job can she find?

If it doesn't work out, let's go collect the rent together.

Speaking of which, I really need to find someone. Now that there are more and more houses and more and more tenants, I am a little overwhelmed."

Comrade Erchun's "Public Tenancy Plan" has been going on for more than a year. During this period, 9 units of courtyard houses alone have been purchased, and the number of scattered tenants in total exceeds 110 households.

View a house, buy a house, repair a house, rent a house...

He has been very busy this year. He often goes out without breakfast in the morning and returns home in the dark in the evening.

But being so busy, the income is naturally quite considerable.

Over the past year, Lin Erchun had received more than 10,000 yuan just from rent collection. Excluding the cost of repairing the house, which was less than 2,000 yuan, he made a net profit of more than 8,000 yuan a year.

Of course, this does not include the money to buy a house. This year, Duolin spent more than 60,000 yuan to buy a house in Erchun.

But even including the purchase price of the house, Lin Erchun's income this year was quite considerable.

The most important thing is that house prices in Yanjing have been rising slowly in the past two years, and the future appreciation of the house is the biggest benefit.

At this stage, Lin Erchun can't see that far yet. He only knows that buying a house and collecting rent is a good deal, and he will feel more confident when the house price rises, and he is not afraid of losing money at all.

"Come on!" Zhang Guiqin didn't give him any face, "You charge rent and you show off. We Yushu are educated people and we don't care about doing this for a living."

For a long time, whether Tao Yushu was in "Yenjing Literature" or "People's Literature", the elders in her family were proud of her job. What a good job it was to be an editor of a nationally famous magazine!

Zhang Guiqin took Tao Yushu's hand and comforted him: "Then let's have the baby first. After the baby is born, let Chaoyang think of a way. Doesn't he have many friends? It just so happens that they can come in handy this time."

Tao Yushu and Lin Chaoyang looked at each other, and then told them the countermeasures they had discussed.

After Lin Erchun and Zhang Guiqin listened, they were naturally worried, but they also understood that Lin Chaoyang was now more capable, and many things were more thoughtful than they had thought.

The family discussed the details in detail, and after dinner, Lin Chaoyang and his wife returned to Xiaoliubukou Alley.

The next day Tao Yushu went to work and did not see Wang Meng. Wang Meng did not work at "People's Literature", so the time he appeared in the editorial department was not fixed. Tao Yushu could only go to Lin Chaoyang's house in the evening.

After listening to the couple explain the situation, Wang Meng also had a look of regret on his face.

He pondered and said: "We can't go to "Yanjing Literature", otherwise Yushu should stay in our "People's Literature". Anyway, Yushu is still young, and there will definitely be opportunities in the future. If someone grabs this If you don't let go of the matter, I'll go and argue with them."

Wang Meng's statement made Tao Yushu feel warm in her heart, but she still said: "Forget it, I'd better not cause trouble to you and the magazine. Lao Wang, thank you for your kindness."

Wang Meng has worked with Tao Yushu for more than a year and knows her character and attitude very well.

As long as Wang Meng comes forward, Tao Yushu's work will definitely not be affected. As for his promotion, that will happen in the future.

Tao Yushu was not willing to speak out about this matter. Instead of being talked about behind his back in order to keep his job, it would be better to resign in a more relaxed manner.

It can be summed up in one word - decent.

This was the main reason why Lin Chaoyang and his wife made a decision so quickly after learning that they were pregnant, and then came to communicate with Lin Jinlan and Wang Meng about the matter.

Although being an editor of the country's most famous literary magazine is said to be a very honorable and honorable job, given the conditions of Lin Chaoyang and Tao Yushu, whether they have this job or not will have almost no impact on them.

After talking to Wang Meng about resigning, Tao Yushu took the initiative to urge Wang Meng to go through the resignation procedures for her in line with the principle of cutting through the mess quickly.

It was not until the day Tao Yushu completed the formalities that her colleagues at the People's Literature magazine learned about her resignation. Everyone was shocked when they heard the news.

A few days ago, everyone was still rumoring that Tao Yushu was going to return to Yanjing Literature as deputy editor. How could he resign so smoothly after only a few days?

Faced with the concerns and questions of his colleagues, Tao Yushu explained the reasons generously, and everyone naturally felt another burst of regret and sigh.

Just when everyone was asking questions around Tao Yushu, Wang Meng suggested: "Although Yushu has been in our People's Literature for a short time, his work attitude and achievements over the past year are obvious to all. Everyone applauded." Please express your gratitude and farewell to Yushu!"

After he finished speaking, there was thunderous applause in the office.

As Wang Meng said, in the year that Tao Yushu came to People's Literature, he handled many excellent manuscripts, and with Wang Meng's support, he also discovered many young writers such as Mo Yan, Yu Hua, and Acheng.

For Tao Yushu's age and qualifications, it is very rare to achieve such results.

And what colleagues admire most about Tao Yushu is her always passionate and tireless work attitude.

Although having such colleagues around will indeed bring a certain amount of mental pressure to everyone, it is undeniable that it is precisely because of people like Tao Yushu that the editorial department can create such a positive and progressive atmosphere.

The crowd applauded enthusiastically, and Wang Fu asked with a smile: "Editor-in-Chief, should we just give him a farewell with applause?"

As soon as she said this, everyone immediately started to cheer.

Wang Meng pressed his hand to make everyone quiet down and said loudly: "Okay. Then Dong Laishun will send Yushu home to raise the baby that night."

Everyone burst into laughter.
Chapter completed!
