Captain Feng cursed the brat in his heart, but spoke nicely to him.
"No one can take away your wife's credit. When the mushroom greenhouse is built, I want her to be the factory manager. Of course, this factory manager is not for nothing. I hope to earn back the money invested before the end of the year."
Lu Shiye: “…” You are still a donkey. Feng Tuan must be dreaming.
Even if the investment is not much, don't put so much pressure on his wife.
Besides, his wife may not be willing to be the factory director!
Pregnant!
How tiring!
"You little bastard, hurry back, or your wife won't be able to control herself!"
Who says I’m too smart? I always guess right.
"Well, I will be discharged from the hospital in the next two days."
Their injuries are now basically stable, and it's the same as going back to the army to recuperate at home.
I was nervous inside, hoping my wife wouldn't be really angry.
Cheng Yunan didn't know what he was thinking yet, as she was busy calling home.
The call was answered by Jianshe.
"Third sister-in-law, if you want to call me, my mother has been talking about you these past two days. Wait a minute, I'll let my mother talk to you."
Cheng Yunan said quickly: "No hurry, tell me about the situation at the factory first."
Lu Jianshe just wanted to talk about it, and told him everything about the recent events in the factory and his promotion to deputy factory director.
"Third sister-in-law, you don't know how shameless this Factory Director Xu is. He even wanted to replace all the family members with his people. He was directly reprimanded by President Zhuang... No, now it's Secretary Zhuang. Secretary Zhuang scolded him and specifically told him that if he acts dictatorially again, he will be removed from his position as Factory Director. Hehe, he is so safe now!"
"Well, he installed some of the best ones. I heard that the factory has expanded again and it's doing well."
Lu Jianshe was happy and excited to receive the award.
"Yes, Sister Xiaoxue is getting married this month, and Mom asked me to ask if you and Third Brother will come back to attend the wedding."
"I'm afraid your third brother is on a mission and can't go, so ask mom to give us a red envelope of ten yuan as our gift! When we get paid next time, deduct it from my red envelope and give it to mom." Cheng Yunan was quite surprised to hear that Ma Chengxue was going to get married.
"Is it your third sister-in-law who called?"
Before she could ask, she heard Ma Xiu Lian's voice on the other end of the phone.
"Mom, it's me!"
"Oh, it's really Nan Nan! Nan Nan, how are you? Are you okay? Are the children bothering you? Do you need mom to come over and take care of you?" Ma Xiu Lian's series of questions made Cheng Yun Nan feel sweet.
"Don't worry, mom. I'm fine here!" Cheng Yunan didn't want the old lady to worry.
"You are more than five months pregnant now. I will pack up and go there in advance in one month. Take care of yourself and eat whatever you want. By the way, your brother caught several wild rabbits and dried them. I will mail them to you in the next two days."
"Okay Mom, don't worry about me!"
After caring for each other for a while, Cheng Yunan asked about Li Hongmei's situation.
"Oh, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten. Your sister-in-law is doing well now. She leads a large group of people in the village to work for the clothing store. She also has the hair flower business. I heard that she has even done business in the provincial capital. Now the villagers are busy, and the people from the two nearby villages are also busy. She walks like the wind now. She is busier than the rest of us."
Cheng Yunan felt relieved when she heard that everything was fine at home.
In the evening, when Ma Xiu Lian returned home, Li Hongmei came out with a sweet face.
She is still dazed and can't believe it.
Lu Jianguo was supporting someone beside him, feeling nervous and excited.
"What's the matter? You two should stop acting like you have a lot of farts in your stomach. To be honest, farts are coming out every day. I'm exhausted and don't have time to speculate with you guys."
Ma Xiu Lian started to curse without any politeness.
Now that I think about it, this son is a money loser. Look at him, he can't say a word for a long time, and he is not straightforward in speaking or doing things. He is not as good as her third daughter-in-law.
In the newspaper!
What a great honor this is!
If the old man hadn't stopped her, she would have shown off the newspaper in the village for three days.
I'm so jealous of those gossips.
"Hey!" Li Hongmei came over, "Mom, I didn't feel well yesterday, and Tian Jianguo took me to the hospital for a checkup. The doctor said..."
Ma Xiulian slammed her hand on the table and said, "If you keep hesitating, get out of here."
"The doctor said Hongmei is pregnant! Let her go home and take good care of the baby in a month and a half." Lu Jianguo quickly took over the conversation, fearing that his mother would be murdered if he said it too late.
Carrying a baby?
Ma Xiulian smiled, then quickly straightened her face again, "She's pregnant, isn't it a good thing? But you're just being so stubborn. Okay, Jianguo will go cook two eggs for your wife to make up for it!"
"Thank you, Mom. How can you be so kind to me? You are closer to me than my own mom!"
Li Hongmei was very happy.
Look at how pregnancy is treated differently, from millet porridge that can reflect one's reflection in the mirror, to two eggs, this is a huge leap.
"Oh!" Ma Xiulian sneered, "Don't flatter me, don't brag. Your pregnancy is all thanks to Nannan. She gave you acupuncture and prescribed medicine for you. If it weren't for her, you would have never gotten pregnant in your life...
But since you are pregnant, you should have a good rest. Our family has no shortage of food. Don't rush to make clothes. Leave the accounting to your parents. Wait until the baby is three months old and then you can do other things.
Still at your mother's house, don't be soft-hearted and try to coax you back to make trouble by saying a few nice words. If that happens, I won't care whether you are pregnant or not, and I will still let you divorce me."
"Yes, I'll listen to you. I won't go back to my parents' home anymore, but I'll remember all the kindness you've shown me. Look, I took the time to prepare some small cotton jackets and pants for the two children. I bought them with the cotton coupons I've saved for a long time. They'll be perfect for my third sister-in-law to wear when she's in confinement after giving birth."
Ma Xiu Lian was relieved to see that she was truly grateful.
"Not bad. Let Jianshe send it to Nannan tomorrow, and call her to tell her that you are pregnant."
"Yes, Mom, the wife of the village head in the next village asked me about construction, but I didn't respond."
"Forget about Cui Cuihua. Not only does the Fourth Brother dislike her, I dislike her too. She is dark and stout, with thick lips and narrow eyes. You can't tell whether she is a man or a woman from the front. As for her maiden, leave her to someone else."
The image of a brown bear flashed through Lu Jianshe's mind. Hmm...
Li Hongmei knew that Lu Jianshe was the deputy director and a well-known figure in Shili Village, so if she dared to accept the offer, her mother-in-law would beat her like a dog.
Fortunately, I was smart and was not fooled by the Cui family's sugar-coated bullets of ten eggs.
The next day, Lu Jianshe called Cheng Yunan and told her about Li Hongmei's pregnancy. He also sent her something by mail and asked her to pick it up at a certain time.
It has to be said that Captain Feng is very fast. The site for digging the biogas digester has been marked out, and Cheng Yunan has been asked to take a look. After confirming that there are no problems, they can start working.
In a dozen days, not only the biogas pool was dug, but also the mushroom greenhouse was built. The children who were sent to the south to learn how to grow mushrooms have already returned by train.
Most of the mushroom strains were dug up in the mountains by comrades from the army, and some were purchased from fellow villagers. Cheng Yunan provided several mushroom strains. It was said that the plastic film was a little difficult to find, so it was later provided by a mushroom factory in the south.
After Cheng Yunan looked at it, he felt that this plastic film was too thick compared to later generations, not transparent enough, and particularly heavy, making it not very practical.
Since he wanted to achieve natural perfection, Cheng Yunan bargained with Tongzi and exchanged ten golden melon seeds for the method of making plastic film.
If we want to come up with a method, we need to find people to experiment with it. There is no place for experiments in the army. Moreover, ordinary people will definitely not be able to come up with the method.
Feng Tuan went directly to the military factory. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yunan met an old acquaintance again.
