However, the more Gu Zi thought about it, the angrier she became. Why would he undress her without following through?
He had stripped her, yet he remained fully clothed. It was outrageous! In a moment of frustration, Gu Zit s irritation morphed into a bout of petulance. She snapped, “Stop it, take your hands off me!”
Su Shen, seeing his petite wife genuinely upset, was not afraid. Rather, he found her adorable and couldn’t bear to upset her further. Thus, he obediently removed his hands from her chest and helped her put on her knit sweater.
After dressing, Gu Zi glanced at the spot where their child usually slept. It was empty. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she asked, “Where’s Lele?”
Su Shen rose to tidy up the bed, responding, “She woke up, so I took her out to be looked after by your sister-in-law.”
His expression remained calm, a faint smile playing on his lips. He thought that his little woman was more shy than angry, which was truly endearing!
Gu Zi chatted with Li Hua for a while. When Su Shen emerged, she left the Lin family’s house with him, cradling Lele in her arms.
Once they were in the car, Gu Zit s mood had improved significantly. Seeing this, Su Shen took the initiative to explain, “This afternoon, Jin Long and I switched shifts. He has something to do tomorrow and needs to take the day off, so I’m resting this afternoon.”
Although he was the boss, he couldn’t always be at the pig farm. When he wasn’t there, Jin Long was in charge. They had a division of labor, and if one of them needed to take time off, they could negotiate a shift change, with the other person taking over.
Seeing his proactive attitude, Gu Zi decided not to dwell on their earlier disagreement. She took the opportunity to bring up the issue of employees taking pig heads from the factory for free. She said, “So that’s how it is. I was wondering why you were home so early. Since we’re planning to open a braised meat shop, we can sell the pig heads and offal and make a decent profit.”
“So, I suggest that in the future, we shouldn’t allow employees to take pig heads and offal from the pig farm for free. We should cut, process, package, and record data as required. Since it’s a factory, there should be rules and regulations. Employees can’t take things for free, but as an employee benefit, we can set an internal purchase price for them. What do you think?”
Su Shen was driving, his eyelashes fluttering slightly. He wished he could free his hands to embrace her, to affirm her, because he thought her suggestion was excellent. She had a managerial mind, which was commendable.
He had long intended to emphasize the rules and regulations in the factory, but he had not found the right opportunity to do so. Opening a shop was indeed a good opportunity.
What surprised him was that Gu Zi had thought of it too, and even proposed the idea of internal employee pricing as a way to alleviate the workers’ dissatisfaction with the strengthening of the system. Indeed, to do something well, it required a harmonious husband and wife team.
Before he met Gu Zi, he never believed this to be true. But now, he was willing to accept it as a truth.
Gu Zi noticed that the man had been silent for a long time. She glanced elsewhere and said, “1 don’t mean to interfere with your work. It’s just a
suggestion. If you think it’s not appropriate…”
Su Shen responded in a low voice, “No, I think your suggestion is very good. Tomorrow morning, you will go with me to the pig farm. Aren’t you also going to help your mother sell braised pork?”
Gu Zi didn’t expect him to agree so readily, as if the proposal was exactly what he wanted. She looked at the handsome side profile of the man and sincerely asked, “Aren’t you afraid that my outsider’s ideas will offend your workers?”
Su Shen looked straight ahead, skillfully navigating the turn, a smile in his voice as he said, “Gu Zi, they’re not my workers, they’re our workers. You’re my wife, you’re the boss’s wife. I’m a professional pig farmer, and so are you.”
Such a pleasant male voice, such a serious tone, and such a handsome side profile, who was this man trying to enchant? Her heart was wildly moved. She hadn’t married the wrong man, she really hadn’t!
The next day, Gu Zi and Su Shen got up together. When she followed Su Shen to the pig farm, her mother and sister-in-law were already at the door, but the stall hadn’t been set up yet. Gu Zi got out of the car to help.
Seeing her go to help, Su Shen greeted his mother-in-law and the others before heading in. He still had work to do in his office..
