Chen Xing couldn't deny that his family was undergoing some changes because of him. It was a good change. This change was like an external force trying to impose on his family. It wasn't a wish that he could pursue subjectively.
His father switched from teaching to administrative work. In a school, which was still influenced by the official system, he could be regarded as a middle-level leader of the school. Compared with the teaching work, it was much easier. At least there was no pressure of entering a higher school that students had to face in the college entrance examination every year. How many students in a class had to go to a key university and how many had to go to a second-level university? The school would assign such hard targets to the teachers, so the teachers' pressure could be imagined.
"Chen Xing, I also have good news to tell you." Zou Fang said with joy.
"Well, it turns out that both of you have good news tonight. You came back in a hurry to share it with me." Chen Xing said with a smile.
Today, Director Deng asked me to come over and said that he was going to make me the deputy director of the office. He also said that he would give me one of the public servants this year. Zou Fang's face was full of joy. She was just a public servant in the Forestry Bureau, an ordinary office clerk. In fact, among the one or two hundred people in the whole Municipal Forestry Bureau, there were only about thirty civil servants. They were all people with some connections or gifts from the backstage. Ordinary public servants like Zou Fang occupied the majority in the Forestry Bureau. They did a lot of work, but their treatment was not as good as that of the civil servants.
"Why, Chen Xing, you don't like it?" Zou Fang saw the look on her son's face and couldn't help but be stunned.
Chen Xing was a little hesitant. After all, the Forestry Bureau was not comparable to the school. It was already a department directly under the government. Although the office director of a government department was not a big deal, Chen Xing didn't want people to feel that when a person achieved the Dao, his family and dog rose to heaven. He had just sat in the position for a few days, but both of his parents had received special treatment, which inevitably caused some unnecessary criticism.
Mom, I don't think you're cut out to be an official. I think you shouldn't be the deputy director of the office. The government and administrative bureau is much more complicated than the school. People are sinister. You'll only be vexed if you keep scheming against others. You might as well continue working …
When Chen Xing was about to persuade his mother, he was suddenly interrupted by Zou Fang. "Chen Xing, you can't say that. I didn't steal or take bribes, nor did I do anything illegal. Why can't I take the position? I've been working in the Forestry Bureau for more than 20 years and have done so much work. It's time for me to be promoted. I think it's only right for me to be the Deputy Director of the Office. Besides, it's Director Deng's kind intention, so we have no reason to refuse." Chen Xing was about to persuade his mother, but he was suddenly interrupted by Zou Fang.
There is no reason for us to refuse. "Chen Xing smiled bitterly. He really couldn't force his mother to do this kind of thing. It was human nature to seek benefits. It was normal for his mother to be reluctant to give up such a benefit. However, in his opinion, it was not necessary for his mother to be the deputy director of the office.
"Also, Chen Xing, don't stop me. I have been thinking about the civil servant job for a long time. This time, Director Deng took the initiative to ask me. I can't miss this opportunity." Zou Fang seemed to have guessed what Chen Xing was going to say, so she spoke first.
Chen Xing smiled helplessly and nodded. He didn't know what to say. No matter how rational he was, he was still the son of his parents. No matter what his status was, this was a fact that could not be changed. His position made it impossible for him to persuade his mother too much. "Chen Xing, I know what you are worried about, but we are not accepting gifts or money or anything.
Chen Xing, I know what you're worried about, but this isn't about accepting gifts or money. I've told your father that I won't drag you down, but this is another matter. I know that your father and I were promoted because of you. You're afraid that others will gossip about you, but both of us are veterans in the unit and have worked hard for our entire lives. Even if we're promoted, it's only reasonable. What's there for others to gossip about us? Those gossipers are just people who are jealous and envious of us, so why should we care about them? Chen Xing, I know that you're worried about what you're worried about.
"Mom, I see. You can make your own decision. I won't give any more advice on this matter.
