Chapter 266 Big and small show-offs
Instantly, Xiao Li understood what was going on and immediately said, "That's right. The words 'Life-saving Grace' are embroidered even more prominently than the honor roll at the factory entrance."
Kang Xiaoxia didn't expect that these two sisters were so good at praising people.
She looked at Lu Liangchen and saw that the factory director's smile could no longer be concealed.
"That's right!" Accountant Xiao Wang quickly replied, "I heard that Engineer Jiang's rescue posture is like a heroine in a movie! He dives in, and whoosh—"
Xiao Wang's performance was perfect, even her eyes were full of admiration.
Kang Xiaoxia couldn't help but want to praise him a little. Isn't it said that working in finance requires dealing with numbers and being very methodical?
This doesn't look like it.
"Cough cough!" Kang Xiaoxia almost choked herself and suddenly started coughing violently.
Lu Liangchen raised his eyebrows. "Oh? And the posture is also important? Comrade Kang Xiaoxia, you were there at the time, can you tell us in detail?"
Kang Xiaoxia was so anxious that she was sweating. "That... Director Lu, it's just a metaphor. You understand, right?"
"Come on, Comrade Xiaokang, you weren't there at all. I went to the park specially and heard from several people that the splash when Engineer Jiang entered the water was even more beautiful than those of the swimming team." Xiao Li from the technical department came over at some point and said seriously.
Kang Xiaoxia: “…”
What's going on?
At that time, it seemed that Haitang did not specifically suppress the splashes?
Besides, Haitang’s swimming posture at that time was at best a doggy paddle, okay?
She thought she was exaggerating enough, but in the end, it seemed like she was the worst at speaking...
Lu Liangchen smiled and pulled out a small notebook from his pocket: "This comrade is right. What else did the other people who saw it in the park say? I'll write it down."
"Ah?!" Xiao Li was dumbfounded.
The whole office burst into laughter, and even Secretary Tan and a few others were startled and came over.
Lu Liangchen then put away the notebook and said in a serious tone, "Alright, let's all get back to work."
"Ah, Director Lu, is that all?" Someone saw Lu Liangchen happy and couldn't help but laugh and joked.
"At two o'clock in the afternoon, Chef Zhang from the cafeteria will make braised pork, specially for the brave worker Jiang..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Haitang's voice suddenly came from the end of the corridor: "Lu Liangchen! You are using me as a cover again!"
Everyone turned around and saw Jiang Haitang standing there with a stack of drawings in her arms and blushing cheeks.
Lu Liangchen immediately ran over to take the blueprint, and whispered something into her ear, causing Jiang Haitang to raise her hand to hit him.
"Hey, hey, be careful, wounded!" Lu Liangchen dodged nimbly and pointed at the scabbed wound on her hand, "Don't damage this hero's medal!"
Jiang Haitang was both angry and amused: "If you keep talking nonsense, you'll sleep in the office tonight!"
It's just a small scar, and it's almost healed. Why bring it up specifically? It won't make people laugh.
"No, wife," Lu Liangchen immediately raised his hands in surrender and turned to the workers watching the excitement and said, "Did you all see? This is how our factory engineers discipline the factory director."
Amidst the laughter, someone shouted, "Our factory director always looks so majestic, but today we found out he also has tracheitis!"
"A man should listen to his wife and not be afraid of any difficulties. Besides, this is called honor! Do you understand?" Lu Liangchen pointed at the banner proudly, "This is the only family banner in the entire factory. Do you have one? Do you?"
Secretary Tan was so embarrassed that he pointed at Lu Liangchen and said with a helpless smile, "You, you, you don't even look like a factory director at all. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
Lu Liangchen said nonchalantly: "Secretary Tan, it's only natural for me to praise my own wife! It would be fatal if I praised someone else's wife!"
Jiang Haitang couldn't help but pinch Lu Liangchen, and Lu Liangchen pretended to wail.
Just as they were making a fuss, a little head suddenly popped out of the door: "Dad, Mom, what are you playing? I want to play too."
Everyone looked over and saw Xiao Taozi holding the kindergarten teacher's hand, looking curiously at the crowded corridor.
Lu Liangchen immediately squatted down and waved to his precious daughter: "Come here, baby, and look at mommy's big banner!"
The teacher couldn't help laughing: "Director Lu, Xiao Taozi insisted on showing her mother the painting she drew in kindergarten."
She unfolded a crayon drawing with a rickety image of a little figure jumping into the waves.
If no one knew about Jiang Haitang saving people, most likely no one would understand it. But after knowing about Jiang Haitang saving people, everyone understood it.
"This is Mom saving the kids!" Little Peach proudly puffed out her chest and declared, "Mom is the most powerful mom, the bravest mom, the best mom in the world!"
Everyone looked at each other in amazement, thinking that the factory director was the one who was so cocky, but who knew that there was a little cocky guy here as well.
That afternoon, the entire factory knew three things:
First, a new "Family Honor Corner" was added at the entrance of the factory director's office;
Second, the cafeteria not only has braised pork, but also puts extra sugar in it, because Chef Zhang said heroes should eat sweet food;
Third, you want the factory director’s signature? You can’t go wrong praising the embroidered banner!
At 5:30 in the morning, Jiang Haitang got up quietly.
She put on her clothes in the dark and was about to button them when a pair of warm big hands grabbed her wrists.
"Sleep a little longer." Lu Liangchen's voice was hoarse from waking up in the morning. He exerted force with his arms and pulled the person back to bed.
The new stubble on his chin rubbed against Jiang Haitang's neck, making her dodge.
"Stop making trouble. I'm going to make breakfast. Let's finish our meal early and go to work early." Jiang Haitang lowered her voice.
Lu Liangchen grabbed Jiang Haitang even harder and pressed her under him.
"No need to make breakfast, we can just go to the cafeteria and eat."
"How can that be? It's okay for us two adults, but Xiao Taozi is still growing, so she needs to eat well."
"I'll fry an egg for Xiao Taozi and put it in the steamed bun with a glass of milk. How can your body handle getting up so early every day?"
"Also, you should eat better. Look at you, you're getting thinner day by day. People will think I can't support my wife."
Finally, at Lu Liangchen's request, Jiang Haitang lay back on the bed and fell asleep again in a daze.
When she woke up, it was already half past seven. Jiang Haitang hurriedly got up and found that Lu Liangchen was no longer in bed.
After she got dressed and quickly washed up, she saw Lu Liangchen coming back with two lunch boxes.
Xiao Taozi had also gotten up, and when she saw Lu Liangchen, she immediately ran over to greet him.
After the family of three had breakfast, Jiang Haitang sent Xiao Taozi to the next room. Yesterday was the last day of class and today was the beginning of the holiday, so Xiao Taozi had to be left next room.
After a busy day at work, it suddenly started to rain in the evening. Jiang Haitang was recording data in the workshop when he suddenly heard a commotion at the door.
When I looked up, I saw Lu Liangchen standing in the rain holding a black cloth umbrella, his trouser legs rolled up to his knees, and his Liberation shoes covered in mud.
"Mr. Jiang, Director Lu is here to pick up his wife!" The female workers laughed and cheered.
Jiang Haitang ran over with a red face and was pulled under his umbrella.
The umbrella was big enough, and the two of them were very close to each other, so they were completely protected from the rain, but they could clearly smell each other's scent.
Lu Liangchen was afraid that the rain would wet Jiang Haitang, so he tilted the umbrella towards her and asked, "Did you have a good day at work?"
In the rain, Jiang Haitang's eyes sparkled. "It's going very smoothly. I've recently come up with a lot of ideas for improving efficiency, and I'm preparing to experiment with them."
"My wife is amazing." Lu Liangchen suddenly took out a small lunch box from his pocket, "This is a reward for you."
"What?" Jiang Haitang asked.
"I went to a meeting today. Lunch was provided and everyone got a piece of cream cake, so I brought it back." Lu Liangchen explained.
Cream cake, this is really a rare thing, but...
Jiang Haitang said, "This is for you to eat. How can you have the nerve to bring it back?"
"Since it's for me, I can't bear to eat it. What's wrong with bringing it back to my wife?" Lu Liangchen said as a matter of course, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
In fact, Lu Liangchen felt a little sorry for Jiang Haitang. If Jiang Haitang had not stayed with him in the northwest, but returned to the city of Beijing, what would she have to eat?
As the only granddaughter of Mr. Jiang, she should be pampered. Not to mention a piece of cake, even if she wants to eat delicacies from land and sea, she can get it with Mr. Jiang's status.
Now, the more important reason why the grandparents and grandchildren did not recognize each other was actually to avoid the Lu family being targeted.
After all, the Lu family is large and each member is a leader, so naturally people will be wary of them.
As for the Jiang family, in the eyes of others, there was no need to be on guard against them, and even if they had a granddaughter, there was no need to be afraid.
The raindrops dripped down the ribs of the umbrella, but they brewed honey in Jiang Haitang's heart.
It was a rare weekend off, so the couple took Xiao Taozi to the supply and marketing cooperative. Lu Liangchen rarely went shopping with his wife and daughter, so naturally he wanted to buy everything he saw. In the end, Jiang Haitang didn't dare let him continue shopping.
But Lu Liangchen insisted on buying a radio.
"What are you buying this for?" Jiang Haitang asked puzzledly.
The factory has a radio and newspapers, so it is easy to understand national policies and there doesn't seem to be much need for a radio.
"Let Xiao Taozi listen to children's programs from now on so she doesn't have to bother you all the time. Besides, children will become smarter if they listen to more programs."
Jiang Haitang understood what Lu Liangchen meant. Children don't become smarter by listening to the radio, but because they listen more, they gain more knowledge.
This way, the radio is not bought in vain, as it allows Xiao Taozi to listen to it and broaden her horizons.
Outside the window, clothes and sheets on the clothesline swayed gently in the wind, and roses bloomed quietly in the corner of the wall.
Inside the house, Jiang Haitang was sewing quickly, Lu Liangchen was sketching out a production plan in his notebook, and Xiao Taozi fell asleep on his lap while listening to the radio, still holding a small airplane that Lu Liangchen had made out of scrap wire.
At this time, the weather forecast came over the radio: "...Continuous heavy rainfall is expected in our province over the next three days, and precipitation in some areas may break historical records..."
