Qin Fang saw that the pit was almost dug, so he handed the shovel to the person next to him, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out a cigarette and prepared to smoke for a while.

I can’t smoke in front of Lin Qiaoqiao anymore. Looking at the cigarette in my hand, I decided to quit.

This was the last cigarette he smoked.

"Brother, what a coincidence! It's you!" Ma Xinsheng came over and saw that the cigarette in the other person's hand was not a cheap one. "Can I have one?"

Qin Fang felt the voice was familiar, and after a closer look, he remembered that it was his elder brother who was knocked down by Liu Xiaoyun on the train.

So he threw the remaining half pack of cigarettes to him and said, "You can have it! I won't smoke anymore!"

Ma Xinsheng took the cigarette box with both hands, "What's up, are you ready to quit? It's not easy to quit smoking! One time I had a throat infection and wanted to quit smoking, guess what happened?

I couldn’t sleep without smoking! I felt uncomfortable all over, but I smoked a cigarette and fell asleep immediately! ”

While speaking, he took out a cigarette from the cigarette box.

"Your cigarettes look like good ones, they must cost several bucks!"

"It's okay! I'm not that high on it!" Qin Fang saw that the clothes he was wearing were from the Electricity Bureau, "Are you responsible for pulling the wires for our village?"

"Yes! That's what I do. I don't make much money, but I'm busy all over the place.

The last time you saw me, I had just come back from a remote place where I had worked for more than three months. The lack of water made me a mess, and the smell on my body was simply unpleasant.

I got in the car and left immediately after work, otherwise you wouldn't have seen me so sloppy!"

Qin Fang could tell that this person should be a small leader, someone who had mastered technology.

"When do you think the village will have electricity?"

Ma Xinsheng, "If everything goes well, it will take less than a month. If not, it will be delayed for a few more days. The weather is getting hot. The terrain of your village is not very good, and the main population is too scattered. There are 37 electric poles alone, and countless wires need to be pulled.

Anyway, it's a big project. Fortunately, there are many people working in your village. I see that several pits have been dug in just one day."

Qin Fang, "Thank you for your hard work."

Ma Xinsheng waved his hand, "It's not hard, it's not hard, this is my job, and you are a big factory manager.

To be honest, I really didn't realize that you are the factory manager. You are too young, really too young. Are you 30 this year?"

"You're not even 30 yet, and you look older than me, right?" Qin Fang felt that the other party was talking quite freely, and since it was getting dark, it wouldn't hurt to chat for a while.

"I'm 32. Oh, I didn't expect that I'm 32 in the blink of an eye!" Ma Xinsheng felt that he didn't look bad, but he had become haggard after being exposed to wind and rain.

He didn't shave his face or change his clothes, and looked like a man in his 40s.

Then I thought of Liu Xiaoyun again. Wasn’t he going to pounce on the person in front of him that day?

This guy is really good-looking. If he were a woman, she would also pounce on him. As the saying goes, a gentleman loves a pretty lady, and the same goes for men.

But now Liu Xiaoyun is his woman, so he still wants to find out a little bit about what their relationship is.

"By the way, what does that woman on the train have to do with you?"

Qin Fang, "It doesn't matter. I sent my brother to the provincial capital to take the exam, and she is a teacher in the county school. My brother is in a rural primary school, so they are completely unrelated."

Ma Xinsheng nodded, "So that's how it is. It seems that the girl is fascinated by you. By the way, you are really good-looking, brother. If I were a woman, I would also like you!"

Qin Fang laughed, "Come on! Don't say such things in front of me anymore, it will make people suspicious!"

Ma Xinsheng was completely confused and had no idea what the other party was saying.

Qin Fang, "If you don't understand, don't think about it. By the way, where are you staying tonight?"

Ma Xinsheng, "It's the production team compound in the village. It's been cleaned up and we'll stay there at night.

Fortunately, the weather is not bad today, and it should be just right to stay here at night when it's neither too hot nor too cold. After I finish this batch of work, I will take a month off no matter what. It will be very hot by then, and I don't want to go out to work!

Hey, if I could make a fortune, whoever wants to do this job can do it, I don’t want to do it anymore!”

Qin Fang just smiled faintly and said nothing. When two strangers met again, they just asked a few questions casually. He didn't take it to heart at all.

Cao Mingyuan held a loud speaker and shouted to everyone, "Okay, okay, today's work is done, everyone can go home and have dinner!"

After hearing the village chief's call, these people put away their tools. After a day's work, even a mule would have collapsed from exhaustion by now.

The reason they have been able to hold on until now is because they want electricity to be available in the village as soon as possible.

Electricity is a desire for them. It was out of reach before, but now it is within their reach. Of course, they want to get it immediately.

Qin Fang handed all the shovels he brought to the village chief, then walked home carrying his coat.

Ma Xinsheng returned to his residence with a group of brothers.

The food was already prepared, cabbage stewed with meat, and the staple food was mixed flour buns. The food was not very good, but not bad either.

A group of people squatted on the ground and started to eat. For them, it was already very good to have a full meal while they were working.

Qin Fang hurried back home and saw smoke coming out of the chimney. He knew that Lin Qiaoqiao was cooking. It seemed that he was still a step too late.

When I entered the outer room, I saw the pot with the lid on and smelled the aroma of pork ribs.

Knowing that they would have spare ribs to eat tonight, my younger brothers and sisters were playing with something in the house and were jumping around with joy.

He walked into the room and took a look. His sister was on the kang and his brother was on the floor. There were some cards on the kang. They must be playing cards.

Turning back to his room, he saw Lin Qiaoqiao drawing something in a notebook. He took a closer look and saw that it was a pattern of clothes. He looked carefully and found that it was maternity clothes.

"Why are you back so late!" Lin Qiaoqiao smelled the man's sweat and didn't find it unpleasant. Instead, she put her arms around his neck and moved closer.

Just want to smell him.

Qin Fang hugged him and asked, "Why are you so proactive?"

Lin Qiaoqiao, "I just suddenly wanted to smell your scent. Maybe it's the child who wanted to smell it!"

Qin Fang lowered his head and smelled it. He was sweaty after a day's work. How could his body smell good?

"Okay, okay, I'm going to take a shower."

"Then I'll prepare some hot water for you." Lin Qiaoqiao got downstairs, put on her shoes, and came to the shed. She put some warm water in the big bathtub. It was okay to take a bath outside in this weather.

It’s not too cold, and the ribs in the pot are almost cooked.
