Chapter 1167 New Fulcrum
When the sun was not too strong, Lu Miao cut a lot of small pieces of cactus with cochineal insects, and gradually attracted the cochineal insects to the cacti in the garden.
In the next few days, she couldn't rest for a long time, so she stayed in the handicraft room for an hour today, two hours tomorrow, and tinkered with it intermittently.
She wasn't busy with anything, she was just using the free time to try out more lipstick shades.
Foreign countries pay attention to "sexiness", such as fiery red lips, very light flesh pink, very dark brick red, pigeon blood red, brown red, etc., which are all relatively good-selling colors.
With reference to these characteristics, Lu Miao used the acid-base properties to adjust the color bit by bit, and actually produced two different types of deep red.
She even tried it on her mouth, and when she went out of the workshop to look in the mirror, Tang Mei saw her and scared her.
Tang Mei thought she had gone somewhere to eat a live chicken.
Before the commotion here had died down, Fu Jingyou came back from outside carrying a postal package.
Fu Jingyou was shocked when he saw her mouth was black and red as soon as he entered the room.
I thought she had eaten something unclean and was poisoned, so I put the package down and took her to the hospital.
The two of them were so startled that Lu Miao was completely speechless.
Lu Miao wiped off her lipstick and explained for a long time before the family quieted down.
After this incident, Lu Miao no longer had the heart to continue messing around.
I simply packed up my things quickly, washed my hands, locked the door of the craft room, and went to the living room to see what had been sent from my hometown this time.
The package was sent by Tianzao.
In addition to the spring multi-flower honey brewed by Tianzao, there was also half a pot of rapeseed oil brought by the He family.
The white rubber kettle lid couldn't be screwed on tightly, so He Hongjin wrapped the mouth of the kettle with several layers of plastic bags and tied it with hemp rope.
But even so, a lot of oil was still seeped out.
When Tang Mei saw this, she sighed deeply and felt extremely distressed:
"You two should write a letter tomorrow and tell them not to send these things anymore. We have enough food and drink at home! They've been busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year and only got these things. It would be fine if they just sent them to you to eat, but look at how they've wasted it!"
Fu Jingyou knew how difficult farming was, so he felt bad looking at the wet and greasy package.
You can buy anything in the city, there is nothing missing.
He had already told the old couple these words.
But in the final analysis, no matter how much you say, it is not as good as the old couple listening to every word they say.
Every time, it's like what has to happen. When something urgent happens, it seems like if I don't bring something along, I'm going to lose something...
Along with the package came a letter.
Fu Jingyou gave the letter to Lu Miao.
When Lu Miao was reading the letter, he frowned and silently helped Tang Mei pack her things.
When the batch of books was shipped back to his hometown, Lu Miao contacted Hu Zhiyuan directly.
At that time, Lu Miao told Hu Zhiyuan on the phone that he wanted to allocate some of the children's reading books to Tianzao.
In this letter, Tianzao mainly talked about this matter.
She has already received the books and exercise books that Lu Miao prepared for the children.
In addition to expressing gratitude, Tianzao also mentioned another thing in the letter.
The story begins when Bai Chengwen returned from Beijing.
After Bai Chengwen returned, the news that Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao had made a name for themselves outside had basically spread.
The villagers were talking about it, and in the end, no one knew who spread the news, saying that there were many opportunities in big cities and that as long as you dared to go out and explore, you could make a fortune.
So, at the beginning of this spring, many young and middle-aged men in Dahe Village and the team packed their bags and set out to make a living.
Some girls were also very interested.
However, due to factors such as timidity, concerns, and family obstruction, they can only watch their fellow villagers rush to big cities.
Among those who were not supported to travel far away was Bai Chengwu from the Bai family.
Big brother Bai Chengwen described his trip to northern Beijing in vivid detail, and Bai Chengwu was extremely envious.
Seeing that many people in the village were running outside, Bai Chengwu said he wanted to go too.
He was a whimsical person, acting like a fool all day long. How could Bai's parents dare to let him go? They simply refused.
Now Bai Chengwu makes trouble at home every day. His father and mother are fed up with his noise, and finally they say that since he is not married yet, he has to listen to his parents at home.
When he gets married and sets up his own family, he can go wherever he wants and his family will no longer care about him.
The young man, who didn't have much life experience, was easy to coax. He actually calmed down after hearing this...
Tianzao wrote these to Lu Miao half as a complaint and half as a daily fun thing, which successfully made Lu Miao smile slightly.
After reading the letter, Lu Miao took the letter and did not forget to mention to Fu Jingyou the matter of the villagers going out to make a living.
Fu Jingyou thought for a moment after hearing this, and then said slowly:
"Just listen to it. If you haven't met the person in person, just pretend you don't know."
Lu Miao smiled gently and nodded:
"That's what I thought."
Although it is natural for fellow villagers to help each other when they are away from home.
But the world is so big, and so many people have left their hometown, and they don’t know where they are going.
Besides, no one has come to them for this kind of thing, so why should they take the initiative to go there?
The couple chatted briefly about the matter and then moved on.
As the holiday came to an end, Lu Miao's first day back at work was a meeting.
A while ago, the country implemented the "Trial Regulations for Identity Cards". Starting from April this year, ten cities including Beijing, Shanghai, and Tianjin will begin pilot implementation.
Chinese citizens who are 16 years of age or older can apply for a resident identity card.
The nature of the Guoyingshe unit is special and it is called upon to actively cooperate and respond to the new policies.
In addition, Lu Miao is now mainly responsible for international publicity work, so in addition to being emphasized in the meeting that it would be best if she was among the first group to apply for an ID card, Minister Zhan also specifically mentioned her name and asked her to apply for her passport information at the same time.
Lu Miao nodded in agreement.
Having said that, Lu Miao actually already understood it clearly.
Speaking of passports, it’s likely that you won’t be far away from working abroad.
Although I didn't consider developing down this path at the beginning, now that I have come this far, there is nothing to hesitate about and stop moving forward.
Her father is slowly getting older.
Retreating to the background is something that will happen in the next few years.
And these few years happened to be the time when she became the new fulcrum, until she reached a high enough level to be able to protect the family from the wind and rain, the best tolerance...
Although the ID card regulations are currently being promoted on a "trial basis", Lu Miao knows that in the future, ID cards will gradually replace household registration pages and become an indispensable part of life.
Household registration books in the north are loose-leaf, and the elders don’t travel far often, so there is no need to rush to apply for an ID card for the time being.
But the child’s father is different.
Considering that the ID card is more convenient, Lu Miao did not forget to ask Fu Jingyou to go with him when he took the time to go to various departments to submit the documents.
Afterwards, Lu Miao also reminded Chen Xiangdong and his group to find time to do it.
