Nie Zhenbang was rather surprised by Tian Xujian's invitation. Tian Xujian's wife had always worked in Jiangzhou. It was not until the end of last year that she was transferred to the same place. Just like many other party and government leaders' wives, she was assigned to an idle unit. This time, she was assigned to work in the Wanghai City Women's Federation, the same unit as Yang Anna.
This didn't mean that all the leaders' wives preferred such units as the Women's Federation, the Disabled Person's Federation, and the Individual Association. The main reason was that these units had plenty of spare time and flexibility, allowing leaders' wives to take care of the family, and manage their husbands' day-to-day life and work.
