Since Squad Leader Qi said so, Qiao Qingqing naturally would not refuse, but thanked him with great gratitude.
"In that case... Squad Leader Qi, we will go out to sea every day for half a month starting the day after tomorrow. Now that you have mastered the method of processing dried seafood, I will try to stock up more seafood for everyone."
This was considered a "concession" by Qiao Qingqing, who contributed half a month's time - in fact, this was necessary, as she had wanted to catch more seafood and make some dried food to bring back to the north.
The North is far from the sea, so seafood must be a rare commodity in such a place, and its value should be quite high.
However, as she shouldered the responsibility of a technical consultant, Qiao Qingqing could not move freely and could only come to squad leader Qi to resign.
If the other party agrees, the worst that can happen to her is that she loses her job.
As for sea fishing, she can just use her own fishing boat!
——Yes, the fishing boat that Qiao Qingqing asked the captain to order two years ago finally delivered the goods after being delayed for a year.
The fishing boat had only been in their hands for seven days, and because San San had to be weaned during this time, baby Lu Xiaoqing was very fussy, so Qiao Qingqing didn't even have the chance to try driving the boat out to sea.
The other day, I had just managed to settle Lu Xiaoqing's affairs, and then I received the bad news that the Lu family would be transferred to the north...
If it were someone else, I'm afraid they would be given a headache by these series of things happening one after another.
However, Qiao Qingqing was able to calmly analyze the situation at the first moment and make arrangements for every subsequent step.
At the same time, he can also make corresponding adjustments immediately after the situation changes, just like now: he planned to go out to sea alone after leaving office, but he quickly adjusted his plan to go out to sea with the army's fishing boat for half a month.
The time was set for the day after tomorrow, in order to give her one day to go to the county town and make other arrangements.
On that day, Qiao Qingqing and Lu Heng finalized the details of his family's journey north, as well as how the two sides would contact each other after arriving in the north, and she prepared a travel bag for Lu Heng.
According to the memory of her previous life, Qiao Qingqing took apart old clothes and used the linen and cardboard folded from old books to make a "mountaineering backpack" overnight. The advantages of this backpack are that it has a large capacity and is thick and wear-resistant.
Due to the tight time schedule, the backpack Qiao Qingqing made was rather crude, but it was barely sufficient.
She packed the previously dried shrimps, dried fish and other dried seafood into the package.
The remaining space is filled with water.
In addition to the military water bottles at home, Qiao Qingqing specifically asked squad leader Qi for eight more military water bottles. Now there were a total of ten bottles filled with spiritual spring water and placed in his backpack.
After thinking about it, Qiao Qingqing put another aluminum lunch box in.
She sewed a pocket on Lu Heng's underwear, in which she put most of the family's tickets and three hundred yuan.
The pocket is sealed and can only be taken out in an emergency.
——Lu Heng was transferred to the Northwest this time and he already had an allowance, so these money notes were all in reserve.
When Lu Heng woke up, he found that the kerosene lamp was still on in the room and his wife was sitting in front of the sewing machine with her head down, sewing something attentively.
When he walked over, he saw that his lover was holding his clothes. She had put some visible patches on the torn parts, and on the table next to her was a bulging backpack.
Lu Heng quietly stared at the lover in front of him, all distracting thoughts disappeared from his mind, leaving only one thought: even if it was just for her, he had to fight his way out of the bright road.
…
At daybreak, the Lu family and the Tan couple were standing at the gate, watching Qiao Qingqing and Lu Heng leave.
Lu Heng, carrying a bag and pushing a bicycle, walked in silence with his lover to the three-way intersection of the village.
Here they stopped.
Next, Lu Heng will return to the island's camp and take the army's transportation tool to secretly head to the northwest.
And Qiao Qingqing was going to the county town.
She raised her head slightly and stared at Lu Heng's eyebrows, which were as cold as before. She couldn't help but raise her hand to stroke him gently, and smiled and advised: "Don't make yourself as embarrassed as last time. I will feel bad if I see it."
Lu Heng's eyebrows curved instantly, and the ice and snow melted away.
He leaned over slightly and held her in his arms with one hand.
Lu Heng whispered softly in his lover's ear: "Qingqing, wait for me to come home."
Qiao Qingqing had tears in her eyes, but she smiled: "Well... I believe you will come back safely."
