Chapter 360 Mountain Song

Chen Qing had nothing to do in the evening, so he went to the street office to wander around.

The street office also has her sewing machines. She had four sewing machines here before. After she stopped using them for a period of time, she was accused of wasting materials. Later, she advocated that employees or their families sew work clothes for free.

When Secretary Yang found out about this, he said to her, "You always like to go around in circles to achieve your goals."

Chen Qing: "No, I like to reach an agreement directly, but there is nothing I can do about it. There are always people in the world who cannot stand others doing well."

Secretary Yang didn't say anything on the spot.

Chen Qing didn't bother with him.

Today, this place has become a gathering place for young people in the alley. Everyone comes here to chat about gossip. Some have even taken on outsourcing jobs from garment factories, where they chat and enjoy the cool air in the evening while sewing pandas.

A panda costs 1.5 cents.

Women comrades can probably sew three to seven a day.

This was a job that He Yuxiang coveted. He applied for it without telling his family, but was rejected by the street office.

His family is well off.

He is not qualified to sew pandas.

Those who are qualified to sew pandas come from families with less than five yuan per capita.

And there is a week of training before sewing the panda.

The women comrades who were assigned to work with Panda were very happy.

Zhang Dongmei also came to chat with her child in her arms. Seeing Chen Qing coming, she asked her to come and sit down.

When the others saw Chen Qing coming, they felt a little restrained.

Someone called out honestly, "Master."

She is a relative of the director of the street office and was originally sent to the sewing class.

Chen Qing nodded slightly: "I heard that you went to the garment factory?"

"Yes, the garment factory needed to rush the work. I learned sewing from you, so I had experience, and the garment factory let me in."

The garment factory also advocates recruiting high school and technical secondary school students. She happened to have a technical secondary school degree and skills, so she became a worker in the garment factory.

Chen Qing smiled: "Very good."

"It's all because of your good teaching."

Ge Nanlian said quickly.

Chen Qingle: "I think so too."

Seeing that she was not as serious as she was in class, Ge Nanlian also relaxed a little and said to her, "The twenty-two people in our class get together once a month and talk about each other's orders for each month."

And there is the master.

Of course, she didn't dare say this.

Chen Qing: "How are they?"

"Life has gotten better. I feel like they have some fat on their faces." Ge Nanlian said boldly, "We always want to invite you, Master, but we're afraid you're too busy."

"We'll see how the situation develops later." Chen Qing didn't say anything definite.

Ge Nanlian nodded obediently.

When she couldn't find a topic to talk about, she just sat there quietly.

Chen Qing originally wanted to come and listen to gossip, but after she arrived, everyone's enthusiasm for chatting suddenly dropped, so she left tactfully.

Walking down the street, Xiaoyu was playing with her tricycle. She braked in front of her with her foot in a cool and neat manner, "Auntie, why are you going home so soon?"

"Go home and listen to the radio."

"Oh, then I'll play for a while before going home."

A kid called Xiaoyu, but Xiaoyu didn't talk to her aunt any more and rode away quickly on her tricycle.

Seeing her lively appearance with a smile in her eyes, Chen Qing slowly returned home at night.

He Yuxiang is listening to the radio at home.

Xiaoyu seldom listens to the radio. It is basically He Yuxiang who stays at home who likes to listen to it.

Chen Qing suspected that if conditions allowed, He Yuxiang would be a otaku: "What are you talking about now?"

"We're talking about Liu Sanjie. Listening to her singing makes you feel good." He Yuxiang listened to the announcer's introduction and felt that the lyrics were quite interesting.

Chen Qing: "Did you sing along?"

He Yuxiang has dead fish eyes.

She is really annoying!

He Yuxiang left with the radio in his arms.

Chen Qing: “???”

I bought it.

Do you have to go that far?

Chen Qing waited for Xiaoyu to come back and complained to her: "Your brother won't let me listen to the radio."

"Brother, why are you so mean?" Xiaoyu went to her brother to settle the score, "Brother, why didn't you let Auntie listen to the radio!"

He Yuxiang: "Have you finished your homework?"

"I wrote... I wrote a little." Xiaoyu said with a guilty conscience, "I will finish it before school starts."

"Don't procrastinate, start writing now!" He Yuxiang scolded her.

Xiaoyu felt wronged, her eyes rolled, and she said angrily: "I know, you deliberately said that I had a problem with my homework. I was clearly asking you why you didn't let Auntie listen to the radio!"

"Because I don't want her to hear it."

"Why?"

"Go ask your aunt why!" He Yuxiang was angry.

Xiaoyu: "Okay."

She turned around and asked her eavesdropping aunt, "Aunt, why didn't your brother let you listen to the radio?"

"I don't know." Chen Qing said innocently: "Forget it, I am a magnanimous person and I won't bother with him."

Xiaoyu scratched her face: "Okay then."

He Yuxiang sneered.

This person was clearly mocking her singing skills, yet he was trying to turn the tables on her.

Chen Qing pretended not to hear and asked He Yuan when he was sleeping: "Do you sing well?"

"Sing?"

"Yes, you must have heard the songs of Liu Sanjie. Sing a paragraph for me."

Chen Qing looked at him expectantly.

He Yuxiang is tone-deaf.

Could he also be tone-deaf?

He Yuan had heard many people singing Liu Sanjie's song to him, and he remembered it clearly, but he had never sung it before. "Let me try?"

"Hmmmm."

Chen Qing held his breath and concentrated.

He Yuan chose to sing the song by Liu Sanjie that did not criticize the landlords: "Folk songs are like the spring river, even though there are many dangerous rapids and bends~"

“Wow~~~”

Chen Qing's eyes were full of stars.

This sounds so beautiful.

His voice is clean and clear, and he sounds really nice when he sings folk songs!

"He Yuxiang's singing is so bad, how come you sing so well?"

“My brother’s singing is terrible.”

"Yeah?"

"Well, but when he was little he liked to go to the theatre with my dad," He Yuan said.

"So what was your life like before?" Chen Qing asked curiously.

“While others are worrying about their daily lives, I can pursue my dreams without any worries.”

He Yuan felt that his childhood life was like this, very simple, so simple that his parents would give him whatever he wanted.

"Do you miss those days?"

"I miss them only when I'm hungry. I don't think about them at other times. My parents have no talent for business. All kinds of people surround them and they are always cheated of their money. My brother and I can't persuade them to stop, and it's very annoying." He Yuan frowned.

Chen Qingle: "Did you have a lot of friends when you were a kid?"

"No, I'm learning something." He Yuan likes to study new things, so his parents find accomplished scientists to teach him.

Chen Qing: "Okay."

Comrade He truly loved learning throughout his life.

"Then can you learn things in the machinery factory in the future?"

She changed the subject too quickly, and He Yuan took a moment to react before saying, "No."

Chen Qing: "Why?"

He Yuan: "I want to see you from time to time."

After hearing this, Chen Qing covered his mouth and said, "No love words allowed."
