It was late at night, cicadas were chirping and frogs were croaking. In the bedroom on the second floor with the windows closed, it was a beautiful spring scene. The light of the egg yolk made Zhou Jiao look like a porcelain doll.
"You really don't need me to take time off to accompany you?"
After the passion, Zhou Jiao, who was bitten until she was only breathing her last, collapsed limply in his arms, pursed her lips, snorted, and then glanced at him coldly.
"Hahaha..." Zhang Guoqing's suppressed laughter, as always, tugged at her heartstrings, making her unable to help but secretly spit out obscene words in her heart.
The weak young wife leaned lazily in his arms like a cat, secretly rolling her eyes. This charm made Zhang Guoqing want to make another move.
He caressed her back lovingly, lowered his head and gently nibbled her crystal clear earlobe, "Baby, please come back soon. I will miss you very much."
Zhou Jiao, whose face flushed red at his deliberately exaggerated behavior and tone, could no longer hold back and twisted his waist with difficulty, then patted him regretfully.
There is really no extra fat at all!
"Baby, your husband has a great body! You will always be very happy. Come, touch it, real eight-pack abs, and your favorite..."
He would start to talk nonsense at the first sign of disagreement and would fight at the first opportunity. This stinky man... Zhou Jiao immediately covered his mouth, suppressed her palpitations, and forcefully changed the subject.
"Your favorite hairy crabs are almost gone. Can you find the father and son again this time?"
As it concerned the safety of his young wife, Zhang Guoqing stopped immediately and said, "I'll contact the other party as soon as I get there. There will be no problem within a week."
"Why did I keep asking if I should go with you? It's because I was worried you'd get anxious. Even if the farmers' market closes immediately, the rural fairs won't be disbanding for a while.
Think about it, when supply exceeds demand, there has to be an export. To avoid waste and to sell off surplus supplies, the wisdom of the people is unparalleled; there are so many ways they can come up with.”
Zhou Jiao knew this, but she still looked at him with admiration, which made Zhang Guoqing talk a lot.
Oh, he has been so bored recently. Unlike his restrictive work schedule, he lets his imagination run wild whenever he has free time.
"It's a pity we have to go to work, otherwise, once we get connected, we can take you around the whole of China. There's everything fun and delicious to do there."
"You don't know how much of a pity it is that I didn't take you back home this time. There's everything in the mountains now. Staying in the city in such a beautiful season, just thinking about all the wild fruits and vegetables on the mountain rotting makes my heart ache. Wife, rub it for me."
Zhou Jiao patted him in amusement. It wasn't a pity. Compared to collecting money at home, she preferred to pick up things abroad without spending any money. This time, aside from exchanging most of her foreign currency for high-end luxury goods like diamonds, gemstones, jewelry, and premium bird's nests, she didn't spend much on most of the other items.
This was because she was worried that there was not enough space, otherwise she would have stolen countless things from the trucks she met along the way.
Compared to the first time she went abroad to carry food and coal, Zhou Jiao was smarter this time. She didn't even bother to pay attention to anything that was not expensive and took up space.
As the socialist successor of the new era, shouldn't it be considered as eliminating harm to the people by tricking those "enemies" who have invaded the motherland?
In the future, when the assets have been cleared, these ill-gotten gains will always be used to help more compatriots in need. Zhou Jiao does not consider herself a good person, but she has a special love for this land.
A son never thinks his mother ugly. Similarly, the motherland that raised her for two lifetimes, even though it is now impoverished and facing internal and external troubles, is still the motherland she is unwilling to leave.
On the way to Hai City, the enthusiastic and sincere train crew members and the Mandarin spoken with different accents from all over the place gave me a sense of belonging that I don’t have when I’m abroad.
The summer city of Haishi was as hot and humid as ever. At the station entrance, a woman holding a sign stood meticulously among the waiting crowd.
This is her countryman!
There are no white people who look arrogant because of their yellow skin, black hair and black eyes, and there is no undisguised contempt for those who lose their smile because of not leaving a tip.
"Comrade, I am Zhou Jiao."
"Hello, Comrade Zhou Jiao." A hint of surprise flashed in the other person's eyes, and then he smiled and said, "I'm Miao Xiaoqing, the person sent by our unit to pick me up at the station this time."
Zhou Jiao knew that the other party must have imagined her image, so she smiled nonchalantly and reached out to hold Miao Xiaoqing's hand, "Comrade Miao, thank you for your hard work!"
"Weekly notifications, not hard work, all for the people."
Zhou Jiao discreetly glanced at him. He was dressed in a short-sleeved white shirt and dark blue trousers, a four-pocket cadre outfit. It seemed Hai City was indeed a big city. Compared to other provinces and cities, the conditions here were quite good.
Especially with his neat short hair, a warm smile on his face, and an air of comfort in life, it seems that he is treated very well.
Compared to myself, with a white shirt that was a little yellowed from washing and a pair of slightly pale military pants, it seemed, as if I was a little too pretentious.
"The company has sent a car, and the driver, Xiao Wang, is waiting outside. It's not even afternoon work yet, so how about we go to the guesthouse first?"
Unexpectedly, the family driver Xiao Wang matched the number. Zhou Jiao smiled, nodded, declined the other party's help with the luggage, and left with her.
She always carried very little luggage on business trips, except when traveling to the countryside. Normally, especially in the summer when traveling to big cities, a briefcase tucked into her military backpack and a second bag for cover was all she needed.
On a business trip at government expense, everything would be reimbursed upon return. Zhou Jiao wasn't one for extravagance, and certainly wasn't willing to compromise herself. However, the guesthouse their subordinates had arranged for her was quite nice, a single room on the second floor. It seemed that coming from the capital, she still had an advantage.
Zhou Jiao exchanged a few pleasantries with the other two and agreed on a time to go to the company in the afternoon. As for dining, they could eat in the internal cafeteria with their meal tickets.
But it was almost half past twelve, and she was too lazy to squeeze into the cafeteria. She thought it was probably cleaned up there, so there was no need to cause trouble for others.
After washing up, she didn't rest, but found a nearby restaurant and ordered a bowl of noodles to fill her stomach. She also took a walk and strolled around, asking about the latest news in the market.
For ordinary people, apart from having enough food and clothing, their greatest pleasure is to discuss gossip in groups of three or five.
What's worse, some so-called "capable people" can mysteriously spread some rumors about someone's distant relatives.
But every time someone passes by, they always leave behind some clues. If you are really attentive, you can always get a more realistic picture from them than what is reported in the newspapers.
