Chapter 302 Don’t Float!
Sister Hua nodded in agreement. She said with emotion, "In the past two years, the government has advocated that one is not too little, two is just right, and three is too many. They also advocated late marriage, late childbearing, and fewer and better births. I think that's a good idea. Having too many children means worrying. If my family only had two, it would be less troublesome than having four now."
Sister Qiao's family also agreed and looked back at the gate of the street office. Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge, the couple, had separated.
One drove away and the other returned to work.
It’s great to be young. You can date, come and go freely, do whatever you want, without any burdens or worries. If you want to go home after work, you can go home. If you don’t want to go home, you can go to a state-owned restaurant to eat and go to the movies with good friends.
Unlike them, even if their husbands can cook, they still have to stay at home every day.
Cooking, doing housework, taking care of the elderly, watching the children's work, studying, dating, getting married, etc., and when they get married and have their own careers, you still have to take care of their children, and then you have to take care of your parents when they get older. Anyway, there is no such thing as enjoying your old age in Longguo.
But isn’t this how everyone lives?
Lu Qiaoge had no idea about the two older sisters' views on love, marriage and men, and she was completely confused all the way.
She tidied up her desk, and when everyone left, she locked the door, got on her bike and went home.
Unexpectedly, during the break after lunch, Lu Qiaoling suddenly asked Mrs. Lu: "Grandma, I haven't heard from my second uncle for a long time. Is he married now?"
Old Mrs. Lu was stunned.
After a long while, he said calmly: "He should have his own family and his own children. It is right not to contact him. Otherwise, he and his wife... will probably be uncomfortable."
Although it is calm, in the end, it is still painful.
She spent her whole life as a widow at a young age, raising three children alone.
The children finally grow up and think that good days are coming, but then the old see their children die.
Half of her days were filled with tears and bitterness.
If her daughter were still alive, she and Chen Liangsheng would be living happily now.
Liangsheng is a good boy. He has been taking care of his daughter for so many years, and it’s enough. She has no right to force him to stay single. She is happy that Liangsheng is living a good life.
She glared at her curious granddaughter and said unhappily, "All day long, you don't even think about work and study. I think you are just idle, go clean up the kitchen."
The old lady rudely drove the man away, but she hid in the bedroom and secretly wiped her tears.
It has been so long that no one mentions her daughter anymore, and even those who love her the most have decided to forget her.
The old lady took out a photo with tears in her eyes. It was a photo of a beautiful girl in a military uniform. This was her second daughter.
Her eyes are very similar to Qiao Ge's, and when she smiles, their eyes also curve into crescents.
Lu Qiaoge glanced at his grandmother's bedroom. The old lady was obviously sad because she remembered her second aunt, but she didn't know what to say at this time.
Lu Qiaoling came over quietly and said to Lu Qiaoge, "Go and persuade grandma. I, I just asked out of curiosity."
Lu Qiaoge: "It's okay, let grandma be alone for a while."
Meng Xia came over, took off her apron, and said to her two grumbling daughters, "Don't worry about it. I know how to persuade your grandma. But Qiao Ling, I'm telling you, don't mention that person from the northwest anymore. Do you hear me?"
Lu Qiaoge rolled his eyes and asked, "Mom, why can't we mention it? After all, he has always been very good to our family."
Meng Xia waved her hand and said, "Chen Liangsheng has done his best. Now that he has his own family, it's difficult for him to contact us anymore."
This time, Lu Qiaoge was certain that the Lu family probably didn't know about Chen Liangsheng's disappearance.
Otherwise Meng Xia wouldn’t have said this.
Lu Qiaoge changed the subject calmly.
In the afternoon, Lu Qiaoge went directly to the food factory when he went to work. The title of infrastructure maniac was not an exaggeration, it had been there for a long time. At the beginning of the founding of Longguo, although everything was backward, the speed of building a new home was still fast.
Now the food factory has begun to take shape.
Especially the instant noodle production workshop and other department offices.
It was basically built according to Lu Qiaoge's ideas.
Lu Qiage's plan is for fifteen years and the design is relatively simple. After all, reform and opening up is an inevitable trend. In the future, the government and enterprises will also be separated. The food factory will become a food company and it certainly cannot be tied to the military factory. It must go out on its own.
Otherwise, how can we implement the expansion of the factory and construction of a staff building on 516?
But even so, such a factory is a source of pride for the workers.
Rows of tall factory buildings and offices with snow-white walls.
There is also a reserved canteen.
The scale is also based on the standard of one thousand people.
How can the workers not be motivated?
Lu Qiaoge didn't set up an office for himself here, but Meng Qingshan still left one for him.
Lu Qiaoge followed Meng Qingshan around. She glanced at Meng Qingshan and said in a friendly tone, "Brother Meng, you've done a great job. I'm really relieved to have you in the factory."
Meng Qingshan is now the deputy factory director. Unlike before, those who once looked down on him now smile when they see him.
Just like what his parents warned him.
A poor person in a busy city has no one to care about him; a rich person in a remote mountain area has distant relatives.
It's not that you, Meng Qingshan, are so great, it's because you are now the deputy director of the food factory. Although it is a street-level enterprise, the factory still needs to recruit workers, so you have become a popular commodity, and we all benefit from it. But if you were not the deputy director now, how many people would care about you?
Therefore, be humble and don’t get carried away!
What his parents said made sense, so of course he listened to them.
Therefore, Meng Qingshan is now calm and composed.
Then Lu Qiaoge would appear to be closer.
After praising them, Lu Qiaoge went to the handicraft factory again. Zhou Li and Lin Junan both took leave in the afternoon.
But the factory is still running well.
Although Fan Xiaoyu is young, this industry does not value age but skills. If you have good skills and are young, they are willing to call you a master.
In this era, calling someone a master is the same as calling someone a teacher.
Skilled workers are in great demand.
Lu Qiage had finished her inspection and it was not yet three o'clock. She thought for a moment, then rode her bike to the Foreign Trade Department.
She wants to call Zhen Xi again.
This time the call was connected, and Zhen Xi's voice was weak, but it still sounded normal.
As long as people are normal, communication will be easy.
Lu Qiaoge breathed a sigh of relief.
Without waiting for Lu Qiaoge to speak, Zhen Xi said indifferently, "Please rest assured, Director Lu, all the contracts signed between me, Zhen Xi, and you will remain valid even if I get sick and die. Nothing will happen."
Lu Qiaoge: ...
What a person, it seems like she is only worried about the orders.
She really called today simply for his health.
But with this enthusiasm, I feel that it should be fine for a while.
Seeing the replies from the kids makes me feel warm inside. Otherwise, it would be hard to stick to it if I only looked at the results. I love you guys.
