Chapter 59 Discussions
Meng Xia was also shocked: "How did you know?"
Then he added: "Could it be that your Aunt Huang said that? But she doesn't seem to know."
Lu Qiaoge: "I don't know where you can go, but I know what position you have this time. You definitely can't go to important production units such as workshops and steel mills. The cafeteria is under the management of Chen Yun's father. No matter what the reason is, you will not be assigned there. The department store needs young people, and you are not suitable, but the children's primary school is expanding and needs school workers. There is no age limit. And this time our family was rumored, and the factory dare not make things difficult for us. I guess 90% of it will be the school."
Lu Qiaoge shook off the water droplets on his hands. If there hadn't been any rumors, Meng Xia would have gone to the cafeteria. According to her age and experience, it would be most appropriate for her to work in the cafeteria. And people like Meng Xia also liked going to the cafeteria.
But the school for children is also very good and not far from home.
Lu Qiaoge glanced at Old Lady Lu and said, "Of course, there's also my grandmother's face."
Old Mrs. Lu smiled and didn't believe it: "Is this true? You are just a kid who can fool people."
Lu Qiaoge: "You are a family member of a martyr. Chen Yun and the others actually dared to make up rumors about you. They really don't know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is."
Speaking of the martyrs' families, Mrs. Lu was obviously a little sad, but so many years have passed, and the living people should look forward.
Lu Qiaoge sat next to Old Lady Lu and asked in a low voice, "Grandma, did you know that the swallow brought back a piece of grass this morning and Xiao Si ate it?"
Mrs. Lu's attention was immediately diverted, and she also lowered her voice and said, "I know about this. I noticed it when you told me about it the other day."
Then he said to Lu Qiaoge: "Don't tell your dad about this. Your dad is a conservative person, and your mom may not be reassured. It's good enough for us to know about it."
This was just to coax the children, and Lu Qiaoge would not really believe it because Old Lady Lu would definitely tell them in private.
It would not be effective to explain this matter directly, but it would be much smoother if I told them through Old Lady Lu.
There may be unexpected effects.
Lu Qiage did not go to the street office in the afternoon. She brought twelve people from the service station to make the adobe bricks needed for the wall, and then moved all the usable bricks and tiles to the vicinity of the house.
Meng Qingshan looked at it carefully and said to Lu Qiaoge, "If we don't go to the Construction Engineering Department to borrow tools, we can use the broken tree to make a ladder."
Some of the tools these people use are from their own homes, and some are from the street office.
But it would be nice to make a ladder by herself, as many of her twelve people have skills.
And if it is done well, it will also be a fixed asset of the service station in the future.
When Lu Qiaoge turned around the courtyard wall, he saw three or four old ladies sitting under a tree and talking not far away.
Lu Qiaoge walked towards the north of the night school, but still heard their conversation clearly.
"You said that the tree was broken in a weird way, it was broken in half, why do I feel something is wrong?"
"Are you overthinking it? It was a big storm that night, so it's normal for branches to be broken. Look at the volunteers working at the night school. Weren't they clearing branches from the gutter a few days ago?"
"You said it was a branch, so it's normal for it to be broken, but this is a big elm tree that's more than ten years old, how could it be broken in half? If there is such a strong wind, won't our roof be blown off?"
"You said this is really weird. It was only a few days after the big tree was blown down here, and Master Liu's youngest son came with a kitchen knife and wanted to chop Li Ying."
Two old ladies pointed to the yellow mud pond not far away.
It is called Huangnitang, but in fact it is just a random name given by everyone. Strictly speaking, this area should be called Xiangyang Night School.
Behind it is the family quarters, and the current Huangnitang is actually an empty lot.
It used to be a pond. At that time, the military factory did not have as many people as it does now, and there were not many housing for family members. After the accident, the factory leaders felt that this place was very dangerous and there was not much use in keeping such a mud pond, so they filled it up.
When the military factory was expanding, people from the Construction Department came here, but in the end they didn't build the tube building here. It was said that there was permafrost underneath, and this kind of swampy area was not suitable for building buildings. Over time, the first floor would sink.
So it's just idle for the time being.
An old lady continued, "I heard from a neighbor of Master Liu's family that Liu Yu used a kitchen knife to chop Li Ying. Everyone asked him why, and he said that Li Ying killed his mother."
"Oh my god, then...did he tell me how he was killed?"
"Who knows? It's been more than ten years, and the yellow mud pond has been added. No one knows what the situation was at that time."
"Liu Yu is also a poor child. He has an older sister, who was said to have been given away by his father. There has been no news of her since then."
"Let me tell you, don't always say how vicious Li Ying is. The worst person is Master Liu. That's his own son. Look at how he raised his son. He did everything he could to get Li Ying's son, who was born to someone else, to be an apprentice in a workshop, while he sent his own son to a car repair shop to help out. The child is so skinny and small. How could the father be so blind that he couldn't see that? He has no humanity at all."
"A person like this still wants to be named an advanced worker. Bah. I will be the first to vote against it."
"The big elm tree is broken. Maybe Liu Yu's biological mother is worried about her son."
"Okay, okay, we can just talk about it behind our backs, but don't tell the younger generation when you get home, or they'll criticize us for being superstitious."
A few old ladies glanced towards the night school and indeed stopped talking about this topic and continued to mend the soles of their shoes.
Nowadays, many people like to wear shoes they make themselves.
Although they were a bit rustic, Lu Qiage felt that the shoes he made were very comfortable to wear.
That's what she's wearing on her feet now.
Lu Qiaoge didn't specifically ask the tabby cat to inquire about any information.
The main reason is that Lu Qiage is planning to expose the matter of the bookcase tomorrow, and it seems that the time is almost right.
But unexpectedly, when Lu Qiage went to the unit the next day to report to Director Hu, he found that Director Hu was not in the office.
Then everyone in the office looked a little strange.
Shao Le was not at the police station today. When he saw Lu Qiaoge coming over, he quickly said to her, "Maybe a big case is going to happen here."
Lu Qiaoge asked, "What's going on? I think everyone's expressions seem to be wrong."
"You didn't come yesterday afternoon. You don't know that at noon, Director Hu, Secretary Liu, and I went to Master Liu's house again. When we went in, the whole family was eating, but we didn't see Liu Yu. Then Director Hu asked where Liu Yu had gone, and Master Liu lied and said the child had gone out to play. Then we heard some noise in the utility room, and when we went there, we saw... Master Liu was really cruel. He tied up the child, stuffed a rag in his mouth, and stuffed him in a corner. But Master Liu was eating and drinking with a clear conscience."
Shao Le shook his head. He didn't understand.
