Chapter 13 Urn, Department Store Hearing the News

"Miss, go get your diploma, we have to go out soon."

Director Wu said this to the daughter who was cutting vegetables in the kitchen, and then went into the house to get money. He took out 1,000 yuan and counted it in front of Liu Xinghe before handing it over.

"Little sister, count it yourself."

"Don't bother, I watched you count it, it's correct, then let's go now, it's better to get it done earlier."

Liu Xinghe put the money in her bag, and then put it in the space, indicating that Director Wu should take the daughter away, and the sooner the handover, the better.

Director Wu turned around and saw his daughter standing there staring blankly with a stupid look on her face. He smiled helplessly and waved,

"Daughter, why are you still standing there? Didn't I tell you to go get your diploma? You've been wanting to get a job and now you have a job, why are you still standing there in a daze?"

"Mom, do you really have a job?"

"Yes, go quickly, hurry up. I've given you the money and brought your household registration book with you, so how can it be fake?" Director Wu shook the household registration book in his hand: "Let's go and complete the procedures now. You can go to work in two days. It'll be a cashier in the steel plant's finance office. It's a top job. Hurry up."

"Oh, good."

Director Wu's daughter was overjoyed and ran into the house to get her diploma.

Once the matter was confirmed, no one wanted anything to go wrong, and the three of them kept running to the steel plant.

With Director Wu, an insider who knew all the procedures and was familiar with the steel plant environment, leading the way, the process was quite fast. In less than half an hour, everything was done, and the work had nothing to do with Liu Xinghe at all. After

the transaction was completed, Liu Xinghe left the steel plant, feeling relieved. She declined Director Wu's invitation to dinner, looked at the time, and walked to the police station to find Director Zhang.

Director Zhang took her to see the three urns.

"Do you want to take the ashes of these three people back?"

The ashes of the executed prisoners can be taken back by their relatives after cremation. Liu Xinghe is considered to be the actual relative of these three people, so Director Zhang asked.

"No, I have already published an announcement in the newspaper to sever ties with them, and I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore."

She was satisfied with seeing that the people were punished by law, and she was too lazy to deal with the ashes of these three people, dirtying her hands and polluting the environment. It would be more appropriate to let the state deal with these garbage.

"I came to see Director Zhang today to discuss personal matters."

"Okay, then we will manage them together." Director Zhang put several urns into a specific box and stored them. He took off his hat and said, "I just happen to have nothing to do. If you want to talk to me about personal matters, you can tell me directly."

"Director, you see that they have all been punished and brought to justice, and have been punished by law and shot. Do you think that my previous reporting of Shen Xi and others can be considered meritorious and for eliminating harm for the people?"

Liu Xinghe looked at the location of the urns, looked at Director Zhang seriously, and asked shamelessly.

Director Zhang was stunned for a second, then he said thoughtfully, "So it can be considered as reporting meritorious service and eliminating harm for the people."

"Director, I see that other people who report meritorious service and eliminate harm for the people have received awards or banners, so can I also have a banner that says "Reporting meritorious service and eliminating harm for the people" or an award with the official seal of our police station?"

Liu Xinghe looked at Director Zhang with sparkling eyes, expecting.

After saying this, she never blushed, and she was thick-skinned and could eat everything.

She had to squeeze out the last bit of value from that family.

Director Zhang looked at the wound on her neck and smiled helplessly, "Well, this, um... can also be given to you. Come and get it tomorrow afternoon."

Liu Xinghe's heart, which had been hanging in the air, fell with a thump. A happy smile appeared on her face, and she hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, Director. I will definitely come and get it."

"You're welcome. It should be given to you." This can be regarded as a guarantee for this girl to go to the countryside.

After finishing this matter, Liu Xinghe smiled and said, "Director, I have a real private matter."

Director Zhang: "Go ahead."

"Today, I heard from Grandpa Zhang that your two sons are getting married, and the house is not spacious enough, and they are worried about where to live. What do you think of my house? You have seen the yard, it has many rooms, a large area, and a small yard where you can grow some vegetables. It is very suitable for a family to live in. I am looking for someone to help me look at the house. If you like it, we can talk about it."

Liu Xinghe looked at Director Zhang expectantly.

This matter is a coincidence. I wanted to find Grandpa Zhang to inquire whether the comrades in the police station have any needs in this regard, but I didn't expect to inquire Director Zhang.

This is really He San's brother He Si (suitable), Director Zhang is the most suitable person.

She thought for a moment and added,

"You also know that I will be going to the countryside soon. When I leave, this house will be empty. No one knows what this house will become like without anyone at home. The countryside is more than one hundred or two hundred kilometers away from here, and I won't have many opportunities to come back and take a look.

I can feel at ease knowing that there is a reliable person looking after the house. After all, this is the house that my grandfather worked hard for, and I can't let it ruin my hands. They just left me with this thought."

"I am indeed worried about this matter, but I have to go back and ask your aunt about the house. Your aunt can't make the decision at home, so I have to listen to her. Come home with me, and try your aunt's cooking. We can talk while we eat."

Director Zhang's face was filled with a happy smile when he talked about his wife at home.

Liu Xinghe swallowed the dog food with tears in his eyes and smiled:

"Director, you and your aunt are so happy. I won't disturb you for dinner. I have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things for my trip to the countryside. You and your aunt can come to my house if you want to after you discuss it. I will take you to look at the house carefully."

I didn't expect that the tall and strong iron-blooded man is still a happy henpecked. Director Zhang is really good and not chauvinistic at all.

"Okay, you go. Your injuries are not healed yet. Take care of yourself." Director Zhang nodded and agreed.

"Okay, goodbye, Director."

Liu Xinghe said goodbye to Director Zhang and went straight to the department store to buy daily necessities for the trip to the countryside.

Although the supermarket in her space has all kinds of good things, they are all modern items and you can tell at a glance that they are new. As for the utensils, it is better to buy as much as possible from this era and stock up.

The space is there, so you have to stock up. The materials in the supply and marketing cooperatives in the countryside are not as abundant as those in the market. You have to stock up now while you have some time, some tickets and money.

It is not as convenient as in the market after going to the countryside.

After entering the supply and marketing department store, Liu Xinghe was like a fish in the sea, happily buying and buying, sweeping from the first floor to the third floor, buying multiple copies of anything she thought was useful.

For example, the unique dating tools of this era, the fruit candies, milk candies and spiced melon seeds of this era, need to be distributed to people outside, so she bought a few kilograms more and put them away.

What she has in her space cannot be shown to others, and can only be used by herself. She

even bought four big red kettles, and several sets of clothes, pants and shoes.

After thinking about it, she decided to buy some cloth and make her own clothes. After all, the sewing machine that was one of Liu's mother's dowry was still in the room, and she also knew how to operate the sewing machine.

Counting up all the cloth coupons in her hand and seeing that the time on her watch showed that there was still some time before closing time, Liu Xinghe walked towards the cloth counter, ready to buy half a bolt of cotton cloth.

Two salesmen at the cloth counter were eating melon seeds and chatting. When they saw Liu Xinghe come in, the younger one said, "Watch it and ask her to take it," and then continued chatting with the older sister next to her.

Liu Xinghe, who liked to watch by herself, didn't mind. They talked about their own things while she watched her own things. It was nice not to disturb each other and still be able to listen to some gossip.

Although the voice was low, Liu Xinghe had good hearing and didn't need to listen hard. The gossip automatically reached her ears.

The older salesperson No. 1 said, "Do you know Zhou Xiaomei?"

Salesperson No. 2 was curious, "Yes, she is the daughter of Director Zhou from the grocery store next door. Didn't she go to Qingyong Commune to work in the countryside not long ago? She signed up for the job for a man without telling her mother. What happened to her now?"

Liu Xinghe lowered her head and looked at the fabrics in the cabinet under the counter. When she heard the familiar name of the commune, she raised her ears unconsciously and paid a little more attention to the conversation between the two salespeople.

"They found out the man was Chen Shimei, and now they've broken up. It's a good thing for Director Zhou."

Salesperson No. 1 curled his lips and continued with a hint of envy:

"You don't know how much Director Zhou dotes on her daughter. That's not going to the countryside, it's just going there to enjoy life. Not only does he mail her all kinds of good things every now and then, he also bought her a Phoenix brand bicycle. That's not all, he even used his connections to find her a job in a supply and marketing cooperative."

Liu Xinghe took this seriously, shifted all his attention here, and listened attentively.
