What could Qiu Yuling say? It was all the good intentions of her brothers and sisters-in-law. She advised them not to do it, but they helped her do it while she was at work.
The third brother passed away on the afternoon of the next day, but the second brother was controlled by his second sister-in-law for more than a week. When Qiu Yuling found out, her second brother not only bought back the coal on the coal book, but also stockpiled 200 kilograms of high-priced coal under the command of his second sister-in-law.
On one side of the outside was a small, half-open kitchen, blocked by a large wooden board that had been brought from somewhere, with some extra charcoal and other things placed inside.
Originally, that area was a partition between the front window and another neighbor's house. The wooden rafters were extended a little and a roof was built. The side facing my house was open and had a single-burner stove.
Qiu Dahe explained, "I thought I'd just build a small kitchen for you like they did. I'll use these boards to make doors and windows for you. I'll go out and get some stuff tomorrow..."
Now that it was like this, it was actually cramped. Qiu Yuling felt that it was totally unnecessary. "Second brother, don't do that. Just follow what other families do and build a fence to separate it from the main road.
They're all family members from the same unit, so no one should steal anything." This way, a small courtyard has been created, and who knows, Wan Jin can be released to raise him.
Wang Xiaotao continued, "If you hadn't told me, your brother would have also planned to do it. He also said that you could grow some flowers and plants, and tie a strong fence. In the spring, you can sow the seeds and they will climb up. I'm sure you will like it.
But he plans to get some sturdy rafters to hold up the door..."
They had been walking around the residential area these days. Many families had framed the area in front of their doors as their own small courtyards, leaving only a small path for carriages to pass through.
However, some people have ready-made walls or boards built by others on both sides, and they just live there.
She had been to Qiu Yulin's courtyard in the alley and had also stayed in Qiu Village. She knew that she was particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation, especially living and eating.
That's why I didn't ask Qiu Dahe to go back. I told him to get everything done in one go so that he wouldn't have to worry about me after he left.
It was all thoughtful of her, what else could Qiu Yuling say? She really had no time to spare these two days. When she reported to the new unit, it was unlike the old unit where there were invisible covers everywhere.
At this moment, she and her master were parachuted in and were competing with other forces, and she, a small follower, also became the target of others' attacks.
This week alone, there have been several groups of people looking for trouble. Today, when the honorary certificate and her personal award certificate issued by the General Administration arrived, those people began to realize that she was not some random person who got in through the back door, but that she had some ability to get in.
This time, she was rewarded with a sewing plane ticket and three months' salary, which was like throwing a grenade in her new unit.
In addition to the collective honor certificate, there was also a copy from the branch office. Even though she had been transferred, the county office sent someone to bring her a fifty-yuan "Incentive Award for Striving for Collective Honor," which could make up for her loss of this year's advanced individual at a critical moment.
She took out the sewing ticket and handed it to Wang Xiaotao, "Sister Xiaotao, I don't need this. Look, I have a sewing machine now. It's just right. It's a wedding gift for you and my second brother.
If it weren't so far, I would have bought it directly. Now you two have to go back and buy it yourselves."
Wang Xiaotao didn't refuse. Their relationship wasn't worth the hassle. "It just so happens that my mom gave me the money for the sewing machine. She said we're getting married, so each of us gets a sewing machine. Now that I have the money and the tickets, I'll see who laughs at me later."
Everyone thought she was marrying down, but she was not stupid. Qiu Dahe's three brothers were all on the government payroll, and he only had one sister. She knew her abilities when she was still a little girl. What's more, Qiu Dahe was not just like this now. Even if he was not from her family, he would have risen rapidly in recent years and was still in great demand.
The only shortcoming was probably not having much money. So that day, my mother-in-law took out a lot of money all at once, saying it was the money my son had given back to us over the years, and that she had used some of it for the wedding. Not counting the money for the sewing machine, there was still over 400 yuan left, plus a small yellow croaker...
She planned to explain to her parents clearly when she returned that this was a successful family and that their children's success was no accident, and that she had married well.
Qiu Dahe had been running around these days, which alarmed the people in the logistics department of the Municipal Bureau. After they talked, they found out that they were from the same regiment.
If Qiu Dahe invited people to have a simple meal, Luo Hongyi would definitely not agree in the past, but it was different for his comrades-in-arms. Even if they were just comrades who passed by him, he still felt a sense of intimacy.
As a result, this meal was even more amazing. Qiu Yuling's sister-in-law was the granddaughter of her old leader. Isn't this a close relationship?
Xiao Qiu also became Yuling, and Comrade Qiu Dahe also became Dahe. "Don't worry, Dahe and Xiaotao, this is the flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. Family members don't recognize each other anymore. I didn't know Xiao Qiu was a real relative of the old leader before. Now I know. If you have any problems in this area, just come to Uncle Luo directly..."
Qiu Yuling immediately accepted the favor, but she still had some concerns. Since it was her brother's favor, she would use it herself. As a sibling, she felt that she was qualified to give to him.
But as for Wang Xiaotao's family, to be honest, she felt that she was not the kind of person who could speak with confidence, and she was afraid of causing trouble for Wang Xiaotao's grandfather.
So after thanking Director Luo, he added, "Uncle Luo, please don't give me special care just because of my second sister-in-law. I think even if Grandpa left my second sister-in-law here today, he wouldn't ask you to show any extra favoritism. He has the same feelings for me as he does for my second sister-in-law.
When I was learning boxing from Grandpa Wang as a child, I knew he wasn't the kind of person who spoiled his children without principles, otherwise he wouldn't be so strict with us two girls..."
Luo Hongyi now really looked up to Qiu Yuling. Most people would have taken advantage of the situation at this point, but it was rare for her to be so clear-headed.
"Have you also met the old leader?" Luo Hongyi asked casually.
Qiu Yuling used the serving chopsticks to pick up the food and said, "Well, when I was little, I went to my second brother's army, but at that time I followed my grandmother to visit my aunt. At that time, I often followed Sister Xiaotao, my second sister-in-law, to visit my grandfather and practice boxing."
Luo Hongyi grasped the implication in Qiu Yuling's words, "Is your aunt's family also in the army?" He thought it was just a lucky country kid, but it turns out there is also a legacy?
Qiu Yuling smiled and said, "I've been busy talking. Please enjoy your meal. My uncle is still in the army, but I haven't seen him for two years. Since I graduated, he hasn't asked me to go out during the holidays..."
The topic gradually turned to family matters. Qiu Yuling didn't say much, and only revealed a few key pieces of information, but it was enough for Luo Hongyi to get to know this little girl again.
