Chapter 226: Eating Melon in the Contemporary Literature (Thirty-Eight)
In the blink of an eye, it was the twelfth lunar month, and the machinery factory and the nearby residential quarters began to feel the atmosphere of the New Year.
Stock up on cabbage, honeycomb coal, and all kinds of daily necessities that can be snatched.
The employees left work early and went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to stay there. Their families kept an eye on them all the time, and even the children were sent out.
"There will be a batch of Chinese cabbages tomorrow morning, hurry up and get in line!"
"I got a batch of hairtail from the cold storage this afternoon, hurry up and grab them!"
"The factory has provided welfare benefits, including pork and hairtail, which are distributed according to length of service and level..."
"Oh~ hurry up and line up! Oh~ it's New Year's Day!"
Similar shouts were heard in several blocks, and people were in a "lively" state.
As a national treasure-level master craftsman in the machinery factory, Gu Qingcheng doesn't need to do the work herself.
Grab the cabbage?
The apprentices rushed to line up in the middle of the night.
Grab the honeycomb coal?
The coal plant where Gu Qingcheng had provided technical support directly ordered people to bring a large truck to her.
Gu Qingcheng's courtyard was never short of various New Year supplies.
There are also some foreign goods!
Ahem, Gu Qingcheng and the Su sisters next door have become half-sisters. They have foreign connections and can get some of the scarce supplies from foreigners.
Chocolate, foreign liquor, sausages, various canned foods, etc.
There are only three people in the Su family, and they can’t finish it.
I just shared it with my good sister next door.
Of course, Gu Qingcheng would not take it for free. She also distributed the "special products" and "subsidies" she got from various manufacturing plants to the Su family next door.
With give and take, the relationship between the two sides becomes closer.
"Sister Gu, you are about to give birth, right?"
On this day, the Su sisters, who were on winter vacation, stayed in Gu Qingcheng's courtyard, eating melon seeds and chatting.
"Yeah! It's almost full term!"
Gu Qingcheng touched her big belly. In recent days, the little guy has become more and more active.
Counting the days, the due date is almost here.
The experienced Mrs. Gu had already prepared diapers, small blankets, small clothes, etc. in advance.
Just wait for Gu Qingcheng to have an attack and then immediately send her to the machinery factory’s staff hospital.
"I don't know if it's a boy or a girl. Sister Gu, do you like a son or a daughter?"
Su Anqi was simply curious and had no idea of favoring boys over girls or girls over boys.
"It's all right! They're all mine and Jianguo's children, I like them all!"
Gu Qingcheng said with pretended nostalgia.
God knows, she has never "met" Qiao Jianguo and has no feelings for this cheap husband.
But life is all about acting!
Seeing her like this, Su Anna glared at her sister: You are really talking about something else! I don’t know when my sister will change her outspoken temper! If she doesn’t change, she will cause trouble sooner or later! Su Anqi shrank her neck and stuck out her tongue. She really didn’t mean it.
"Well, Sister Gu is so beautiful, the baby she gives birth to must be beautiful too!"
Su Anqi tried to change the subject.
Gu Qingcheng seemed to still be immersed in memories, "Not necessarily! Qiao'er looks like his father."
It’s the dead Qiao Jianguo again!
Oh, why can't I get around it?
Su Anqi was so anxious that she scratched her head.
Seeing this, Gu Qingcheng secretly laughed. This Su Anqi was still too eccentric.
When I speak, I seldom think.
A person with high emotional intelligence is described as being naive and outspoken; a person with low emotional intelligence is described as being reckless and impulsive, and speaking out of turn.
Just teach her a little lesson so that she won't be impatient and will think before speaking next time.
Su Anna glared at Su Anqi again, and she took over the conversation, "Sister Gu, have all the production tasks in the factory been completed?"
“Well, we exceeded our target!”
Gu Qingcheng looked at the steady Su Anna and thought of her side quest. She smiled and said, "Anna, you also studied mechanical manufacturing in college, right?"
"right!"
Su Anna looks elegant and pretty, but she is an engineering girl at heart.
She has always taken her father as an example and wanted to be a useful person to the country.
"We will go to the factory for internship next year."
Suanna is now a junior and will be a senior next year.
For a more practical major like hers, she can learn more effectively by working in a factory.
Su Anna wants to go back to the machinery factory, but this still needs to be subject to the school's arrangements.
"Want to come to our factory?"
Gu Qingcheng saw Su Anna's thoughts and said with a smile, "That's easy. Let Engineer Su——"
Before Gu Qingcheng could finish, Su Anna shook her head and said, “My father won’t agree.”
Su Zhenhua is a pure technical talent who simply disdains to use backdoors or connections.
"I agree! My technical team needs a professional theoretical talent to help. I will talk to my leader after the New Year!"
Gu Qingcheng said with a smile.
"Really?" Su Anna's eyes were full of surprise.
She was worried that because of her background, she would be assigned to a third-tier factory.
It’s not that Suanna can’t endure hardship, but as a young and beautiful girl, it’s easy for her to get into trouble if she goes to another place alone.
It’s better to stay in the city and work in the machinery factory.
After all, this is the Su family’s base camp.
Many of the veterans of the machinery factory were once employees of the Su family manufacturing plant.
To a certain extent, there is still a sense of connection.
Maybe I can't help her openly, but as long as she is not targeted, Su Anna will be fine.
"Of course it's true!"
Gu Qingcheng still had a smile on her face, but her tone was very serious.
"Thank you, Sister Gu!"
Su Anna's eyes felt a little sore.
Nowadays, not everyone is willing to get close to people like them.
Sister Gu is one, oh, yes, there is also Qiao Weiguo.
However, Su Anna has complicated feelings towards Qiao Weiguo——
On the one hand, she felt that Qiao Weiguo's look was too offensive;
On the other hand, she inexplicably felt safe!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
This contradictory thought made Su Anna very conflicted.
Fortunately, she still has Sister Gu. Every time she sees her stunning beauty, Su Anna feels certain that “this is my aesthetic.”
And there is that "he".
Alas, separation in the middle of the year is destined to be a farewell forever.
Suanna never knew that the world was so unpredictable.
It was obvious that in the first half of the year, they were as close as brothers.
As a result, within a few months, they became enemies.
The two young people who once had ambiguous feelings for each other also became separated.
"Alyosha! I wonder if you are all right now? I received all the letters and things you sent me, but I didn't write back to you!"
"…We are destined to be apart, and our love will wither like a withered rose!"
Su Anna thought of the lover who made her heart beat faster, and couldn't help feeling sad.
"Eh? Sister Gu, is the faucet in your house not tightened? Why do I hear the sound of running water?"
Su Anqi suddenly spoke, with a look of confusion on her face.
Gu Qingcheng slowly lowered her head and saw a puddle of water under her chair. She slowly raised her head again, "My water broke!"
…
After a moment of chaos, Gu Qingcheng took the factory's small jeep and quickly came to the hospital.
After entering the delivery room, she gave birth to a chubby, fair baby boy in less than an hour.
"It's a son, mother and child are safe!"
The nurse carried the baby out of the delivery room and spoke to Mrs. Gu, the Su sisters and others who were waiting in the corridor.
"That's great! It's really great!"
Everyone was very happy.
In fact, if you look closely, they are not Gu Qingcheng's direct relatives.
However, they all cared about Gu Qingcheng very much and were happy for her from the bottom of their hearts.
In this era, the idea of favoring boys over girls is still very serious.
Only when you have a son can you be considered to have a successor.
Gu Qingcheng was still a widow pregnant with a posthumous child. She had vowed never to marry again, so giving birth to a son now would give her a sense of security for the rest of her life.
It can also be considered as doing justice to Qiao Jianguo who is in heaven.
As for Old Man Qiao and his wife, everyone, including Second Sister-in-law Gu, subconsciously forgot about them.
After giving birth successfully, the exhausted Gu Qingcheng was sent back to the ward.
She is a special talent and is qualified to stay in the special care ward.
She was the only woman in labor in her ward.
When the leaders of the factory received the news, they came to visit one after another.
And Gu Qingcheng's apprentices were also busy working.
In less than a day, the gifts including canned food, milk powder, brown sugar, eggs, etc. almost filled the entire ward.
Mrs. Gu was stunned. Although she had known for a long time that her sister-in-law had a promising future, she still could not have imagined that her sister-in-law would be so impressive.
With so many good things, they are enough for my sister-in-law to stay in confinement for a few more months.
Mrs. Gu was envious and complained, but she was not jealous, and she did not have any extreme thoughts.
People are like this. When someone reaches an unattainable height, even the best people will not dare to plot against him easily.
What's more, Mrs. Gu is a very shrewd person.
She wants to take advantage, but she wants to take advantage for a long time.
In particular, when my sister-in-law was in confinement, a leader from the 13th or 25th factory came to congratulate her. My sister-in-law asked casually, "Can you train drivers?"
The leader immediately said, "Sure! We have jeeps and trucks. Once you get here, you can learn how to drive in less than a week!"
Mrs. Gu didn't even have time to react, and Gu Qingcheng had finished discussing with the other party.
Mrs. Gu sent the guest away without knowing anything. When she came back, she heard Gu Qingcheng say, "Let my second brother come to the city in a few days."
"I found him a place to learn how to drive. Once he learns how to drive, he can be a driver in the future!"
Whether it's in the factory or back in the production team, being a driver or something like that is definitely an excellent job.
Mrs. Gu was completely dumbfounded.
Soon, she reacted and stammered, "Learn, learn to drive? Can your second brother do it?"
My man is just a farmer who only went to elementary school for two years.
Driver is a technical position.
In the machinery factory, many children of employees cannot get a number.
Can her man do it?
Gu Qingcheng didn't say anything, but just glanced at Gu Ersao indifferently.
Mrs. Gu understood instantly, why did she ask such a stupid question?
Didn’t my sister-in-law just tell the people from the digital factory? Second sister-in-law Gu understood and was in a state of excitement.
So, my man can really be a driver? Can he eat commercial grain?!
PS: As usual, please give me a monthly ticket!
