He cried with snot and tears streaming down his face.
The commune leaders were so upset by the crying that they had a headache.
Then--
That very evening, a document was issued prohibiting any village or individual from taking advantage of Xiahe Village. In addition, a special permit was issued to Xiahe Village.
The captain casually mentioned that he also needed a salesperson.
The commune leader waved his hand and created two more jobs for him in the village.
The captain returned home happily.
That evening, Qiao Wanyue received ten yuan in compensation and two pieces of meat.
She didn't know what the captain had done; the captain's wife told her.
If anyone tries to force her to remarry, she refuses, and no amount of persuasion will change her mind.
The brigade can approve land for her.
They can set up their own business if necessary.
These words were a warning to the Lu family.
She was afraid they would think Qiao Wanyue was a freeloader.
Qiao Wanyue felt a pang of tenderness in her heart.
It's good to have someone back you up.
Lu Rong was displeased upon hearing this, saying, "We can afford to support them; there's no need for them to start their own household."
The captain's wife knew, of course, that she wouldn't.
These words were just a warning.
After this incident, the villagers who wanted to arrange a marriage for Qiao Wanyue gave up the idea.
Qiao Wanyue was unaware that ever since the meeting to set up the pastry workshop, everyone in the village had also started thinking about it.
Qiao Wanyue was a precious treasure. Although the brigade leader said it was a collective decision made by the village leaders, everyone knew that it was Secretary Guo and Qiao Wanyue who came up with the idea. Some women even knew that it was Qiao Wanyue who came up with the formula.
Qiao Wanyue is now a widow, with no children and living with her stepmother's family.
Marrying such a golden nugget will surely bring prosperity to the family.
Many families with single men have started to consider it, but none of them acted as soon as the old fish lady did.
But it was thanks to the old fishmonger who made the move; otherwise, they wouldn't have known how closely the brigade leader was watching these precious darlings.
The captain's move, which served as a warning to others, shocked many people.
But it doesn't work for some people either.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion. Although the Lu family did not need to visit relatives, Lu Rong still prepared a lot of delicious food.
Roast chicken, steamed white flour buns, steamed vegetables, and lots of fruits were served. A table was set up in the yard. The dishes were prepared by Qiao Wanyue. She cleaned the whole chicken and then boiled it in a pot in the room. She also braised the whole chicken, meat, eggs, and a lot of big bones.
One pot is ready.
The aroma wafted from every household. Selling dried vegetables made every family much wealthier. Normally, there wasn't much meaty fragrance. At most, a white flour bun with minced meat stir-fry was the highest form of hospitality for guests.
With money, everyone's life has improved.
Gou Dan brought a bowl of meat to the Lu family.
Lu Rong didn't want it, but Gou Dan insisted on taking it back. Lu Rong poured her bowl of meat into her own bowl and made him a bowl of stir-fried minced meat sauce, which was delicious with steamed buns or noodles.
Gou Dan didn't want it, but Lu Rong said with a stern face, "If you don't want it, then don't come and deliver anything in the future."
Dog Egg looked at the sauce, licked his lips, said thank you, and moved away.
The last dish was served.
Lu Yunqi returned home dejectedly, carrying the tattered box.
Lu Rong stared at the box in his hand, her gaze fixed on what was behind him.
There was no one behind him.
The disappointment was clearly visible in his eyes and brows.
"Boss, are you injured?" Sister-in-law Lu noticed the scratch marks on her husband's face at a glance.
The five fingers left distinct marks on his face.
